Yinzhen, Yin?, and Qingheng went to work early in the morning and were busy with their own things. Only Nian Gengyao and Lin's mother were at home with nothing to do, trying every means to make nourishing soup for Baoer.
Qingchuan didn't go out today, which was a rare occasion. Instead, he stayed with Baoer.
At this moment, she was looking at Bao'er with a distressed look on her face, "Bao'er, how are you? Are you still feeling bad today?"
“I feel much better today.”
Qingchuan looked at Bao'er angrily and said, "Why don't you be more careful? Next time you go somewhere, let me accompany you."
Baoer saw her sister scolding her as soon as she came, but she knew that her sister loved her, so she sat up and took her arm and said coquettishly, "Sister, I don't know what happened. In fact, I had already discovered that the Fifth Lady was plotting against me, but I thought I would be fine because I brought Orange to watch for me. I realized that I underestimated human nature."
"By the way, why aren't there any oranges today?"
Qingchuan heard this and said, "She took too many drugs yesterday and her body is still weak, so mother decided to let her rest today."
"It would be great if Nian Gengyao, my mother and I could serve you personally today."
"Okay, why not? I just want to make less of this tonic soup. I drink too much and I keep having to go to the bathroom."
"Pfft, you, seeing you're still in the mood to joke, I know you're fine. Seeing you like that when your brother-in-law brought you back yesterday, it was really scary."
Baoer smiled bitterly, "Haha, how could I be so unlucky to meet such a psychopath?"
"I guess God saw that your life was so good that he just added a little spice to it."
Bao Er said in distress, "Sister, what should I do when I meet the prince in the future? I feel so embarrassed when I see him now."
Qingchuan was helpless, "What should I do? I don't know. It will be fine with time. Now we can only pretend that nothing happened. After all, you two are in this situation, hehe." Qingchuan was also a little embarrassed.
Bao Er said dejectedly, "Forget it, let's just take it one step at a time."
After the morning court session today, the Emperor summoned the Crown Prince, the Fifth Prince, and the four brothers Yinzhen and Yinzhen.
The princes involved knew that the emperor wanted to ask about what happened yesterday.
The other brothers didn't know the situation and thought that their emperor had taken a fancy to them.
Especially the Fourth Prince, he found that his second brother, the Crown Prince, was not as close to him as before, and he was not even active in competing with his eldest brother in the court.
As she returned home, she was still wondering why the prince had become so distant from her. Could it be that he had discovered her feelings?
That's not right. I've been hiding it well and supporting the prince openly. But no matter how I think about it, it doesn't seem right.
The Eighth Prince also couldn't understand why his two good brothers ignored him. It had been several months and they still hadn't been able to coax them back.
Now he had no money to bribe the ministers. The 200,000 taels of silver that the emperor gave him for settling down had long been spent. Even the expenses of the mansion were now being used by his wife. So recently he had always been subservient to his wife.
Because of this, I have neglected my beloved concubine for a long time. But my ninth brother is not as easy to coax as before. No matter how much I say, he says that all the money he earns is given to his wife's family. After all, he is married, what can I do?
But I don’t know how to make money. My ninth brother’s glass business was very profitable and I wanted to join in. Unexpectedly, my ninth brother said that the business belonged to my sister-in-law.
It’s not easy for me to argue with my brother and sister-in-law. I still have to save my dignity.
When the ministers around him saw that his ninth and tenth brothers did not follow him, they also left.
The other princes were also thoughtful.
Palace of Heavenly Purity
The emperor looked up at his sons and asked, "Tell me, what happened yesterday?"
The only one present was the Fifth Prince, who was completely confused and had no idea that his beloved wife had done another big thing.
Everyone else understood that the emperor might know something.
When Yinzhen and Yinyang heard the emperor's question, they knelt on the ground without saying a word and said, "Father, you have to make the decision for your sons."
Then Yinzhen said, "My sons finally married the women they loved... Who knows about the fifth sister-in-law?"
The Fifth Prince was still wondering what he had to do here, but he didn't expect it to be his beloved wife again. His face suddenly turned pale. He clenched his fists and thought to himself, "Her Tala..." What had she done again?
Afterwards, Yinzhen and Yin? talked things out one after another, but they were talking about the version that the three of them had discussed yesterday.
His wife happily celebrated the Fifth Brother's marriage. Unexpectedly, the Fifth Lady, jealous of Bao'er's appointment as Earl by the Emperor, resented her. She then deliberately framed the maidservant at a banquet, having her clothes soiled. She also deliberately assigned another maidservant to lead Bao'er to a place with a powerful aphrodisiac incense.
Upon hearing this, the emperor and the fifth prince's faces turned a little ugly. Everyone who grew up in the palace knew the fifth concubine. What was she trying to do with this?
"How is my sister-in-law?"
The emperor also asked, "Is Miss Lin okay?"
The prince then said, "Then, when I was going to relieve myself and coming back, I unexpectedly saw my sister-in-law's maid was knocked unconscious and hiding in the corner outside the dressing room. I thought no one would want to harm my sister-in-law.
Unexpectedly, a short while later, another maid came to help an unconscious man into a room. You know, that was where the women changed clothes. I was afraid that my brother and sister-in-law might have encountered an accident.
I knocked them out from behind and found my brother's wife inside, but she was already under the influence of Chinese medicine. If you plan something like that, you can imagine what will happen next. Someone will definitely come and catch them in the act.
"So I had no choice but to temporarily take her back to the villa I had bought for occasional stays outside the palace. I also had someone notify my tenth brother. I met with the imperial physician to check her pulse."
"Who knew that the imperial physician said that the drug was very strong. If men and women do not have sex quickly, there will be concerns about their fertility. In addition, I was also poisoned by the drug, so..." The prince's face was a little embarrassed when he finished speaking.
