This really pissed off Nanny Qin. She jumped up and pointed at Song Yushu, cursing, "How dare you, a mere official from Prince Jing's Palace, speak to me like that?! Someone, come! Beat him up! Beat him until he admits his mistake!"
"I am just a small official in our family and I have been punished. But if His Majesty knows about this, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to explain it to you." Song Yushu said slowly.
Nanny Qin immediately stopped the palace maids and eunuchs who wanted to come forward and looked at Song Yushu suspiciously, "What did you say?"
"The prince is seriously injured now and needs help right now. Not only did I enter the palace, but I was also injured in the palace. I will have to lie down for three to five days, and I may even die if I'm not careful. Tell me, if His Majesty knew about this, would he be angry?" Song Yushu was not at all panicked and stood there with his hands behind his back.
This is the Queen's palace. Nanny Qin boasts that all those present are her confidants and the Emperor would never know. However, she hesitated when she saw Song Yushu's calm look. She glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs present.
Nanny Qin spoke tentatively, "His Majesty is so busy with affairs of state, how could he care about a mere official like you? Don't try to evade punishment by making irresponsible remarks!"
"Your Majesty is busy with all sorts of affairs, but Concubine Yu is also assisting in the harem, and the Empress Dowager has often summoned her. Even the Crown Prince has sent letters asking for information." Song Yushu smiled slightly, with a look that said, "If you dare, I'll hit you." "This isn't something you can just close the door and ignore."
"You eunuch, all you have to say is to threaten me and escape punishment! Stop talking nonsense--" Before Nanny Qin could finish her words, a palace maid pushed open the gate and walked in, whispering something in her ear.
Nanny Qin's expression suddenly changed, and she turned to look at Song Yushu.
She saw Song Yushu looking at her calmly with his hands behind his back! Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat. The Queen's guess was right. Prince Jing actually had spies in the harem!
And this spies are actually all over the Queen and Concubine Yu’s palace!
Concubine Yu actually used the title of Empress Dowager to summon Song Yushu for questioning. At this time, there was really no way for her to touch him.
Simply releasing Song Yushu, or even giving him to the Empress Dowager Concubine Yu, would be detrimental to the Queen's plan. After much deliberation, Nanny Qin left a message and hurried off to find the Queen.
"Keep an eye on this ignorant eunuch! If anything goes wrong, be careful or the Empress will hold you accountable!"
Song Yushu shrugged his shoulders at the palace maids and eunuchs who were staring at him eagerly, then found a stool and sat down leisurely.
After sitting for a long time, Nanny Qin didn't come back. The palace maids and eunuchs in the yard were getting impatient. What kind of trouble could a chief historian of a disabled prince cause?
Everyone relaxed their guard and found a shady place to sit in groups of three or four.
The queen is a narrow-minded person, just like Prince Yu. She treats her servants with either beatings or scolding, relying entirely on power and means. It seems that these servants are not very united.
Song Yushu rolled his eyes, took out a purse from his sleeve pocket, grabbed a handful of golden melon seeds from it, put them on the table, and started to mend the table with a few fallen leaves. "Oh, you've worked hard, you've worked hard. I'm going to go to sleep first. You guys have worked hard on the tables and chairs~"
After saying that, Song Yushu walked into the room in the side yard, found a bench, lay down on it and closed his eyes.
Seeing Song Yushu's actions, someone was immediately tempted. A palace maid who looked to be of a higher rank came up with a little palace maid and moved the fallen leaves away.
Although they could see it from a distance, it was still very dazzling when they looked closer. The dazzling golden melon seeds were lying on the table, as if waving to them.
The palace maid and the little palace maid looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and decided to divide the pile of golden melon seeds.
After all, working in the Queen's Palace is not only the hardest job, but you are also often beaten and scolded, and you may even lose your head from time to time, but the money you get is pitifully little.
The Queen and Prince Yu have the Lin family behind them, but they are still extremely stingy. They will even deduct the regular bonus, not to mention the usual rewards. The chance of them giving rewards is really pitifully small.
When they divided the eunuchs according to the ranks of those present, they found that the eunuchs of Prince Jing's Mansion had been counted well. According to the ranks, there was not one less or one more!
Hearing the giggling sound, Song Yushu, who had her eyes closed, raised the corners of her mouth slightly. She knew very well that the Queen and Prince Yu were stingy. As for money, it had to be spent.
Just then, before Nanny Qin returned to the yard and opened the door, someone coughed lightly to remind Song Yushu that it was time to wake up.
When Song Yushu yawned and stood up, Nanny Qin just pushed the door open.
Nanny Qin, who had finally gotten rid of Concubine Yu and Empress Dowager Yu with the Queen, was now furious when she saw the leisurely Song Yushu.
"Come here! Strip him of his official uniform." Nanny Qin signaled the palace maid behind her to throw the herbs on the ground. "Since the prince is unwell, you, as the chief secretary, should also know some medical skills. Prepare these herbs properly, otherwise don't blame me for speaking ill of you!"
After all, they had to take the favor, so the two eunuchs walked up to Song Yushu and pulled off his official uniform gently, seemingly rudely.
Song Yushu stood in the middle of the yard in his middle clothes, staring at Nanny Qin without blinking, neither speaking nor responding.
Just when Nanny Qin thought that this damned eunuch was about to explode so that she could find another fault, Song Yushu suddenly smiled and bowed respectfully, "Yes, Nanny."
After saying that, he squatted down and picked up the herbs on the ground.
Seeing Song Yushu give in, Nanny Qin snorted softly, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she threw a medical book from her arms, "You must read this medical book carefully, don't make any mistakes with these medicinal herbs, they will all be sent to Prince Jing's Mansion in the end! If anything happens to the prince, do you think His Majesty will forgive you?"
After saying that, Nanny Qin turned around and left, very confident that Song Yushu would not be able to find the problem based on his medical skills.
Song Yushu picked up the medical book on the ground and took a look. It was full of prescriptions written in official language, which was obscure and difficult to understand. It was obviously a collection in the palace, and even the prince's palace did not have it.
This aroused Song Yushu's interest. She even sat cross-legged next to the medicinal herbs, reading medical books while picking them out.
By the time she had finished choosing, it was already late and Nanny Qin had not returned yet. She must have thought that Song Yushu would not be able to make a good choice, so she wanted to come back tomorrow to check and delay it for another day.
A palace maid came over as if to monitor Song Yushu, and then walked away, but an oil-paper bag suddenly appeared on the ground.
Song Yushu picked it up without hesitation, opened it and started eating. After finishing his meal, he returned to his room. When the palace maid came to pick up the oil paper package on the ground, he opened it and found a pile of golden melon seeds.
Late at night, Song Yushu, who had her eyes closed, suddenly opened them. She touched her arm and it came!
