"I was terrified at the last gathering at the Bai Mansion." Yong An walked to Jiang Li's side and whispered, "If you hadn't sent someone to tell me, I would have almost run straight to the palace to see you... But I was also quite afraid that Prince Jingling would kick me out because of the bad things I did before."
"That was a long time ago. Don't worry, the prince is not as scary as you think. Okay, tell me about the second young master of Prince Ning's Mansion."
It was time for gossip again, but Jiang Li had a serious expression on her face. She moved lightly with lotus steps, acting like a princess with all her dignity. Many noble ladies were afraid to approach her and could only bow where they were.
"Him?" Yong'an snorted. "He's just a gangster. He claims the throne belongs to his elder brother. He just wants to be an idler who eats, drinks and has fun all his life."
"Oh? So, he came to see you?"
Jiang Li grasped the crux of the problem.
Yong'an was stunned and stamped his feet anxiously. "Okay, my dear princess, let's not talk about him anymore. Oh, my mother said I must say thank you on her behalf. The prescription you prescribed is so effective. It's so cold this winter, and she hasn't coughed anymore."
As the two of them were talking, they soon arrived at the main hall.
"It's still early. Please sit here for a while. I'll go to Yongning Palace first."
After parting with Princess Yong'an and saying hello to his colleagues from the Imperial Hospital, Jiang Li took Bai Zhi and headed towards the harem.

"Your Highness, this time you must hit the target with one strike."
In a corner of the Imperial Garden, Qin Ji handed the porcelain vase in his hand to Gu Yanheng.
After several months of house arrest, Gu Yanheng looked obviously in worse spirits. The dark circles under his eyes could not be hidden, but his eyes were more violent, as if he was about to go crazy at any time.
"This poison is colorless and odorless. It will only cause cadaveric syncope. The imperial physician will only determine that the problem lies with the Crown Prince and will not find anyone else."
Qin Ji remembered what the man had said and instructed, "Just in case, I will put medicine in the water in the imperial kitchen in advance. Everyone will be slightly poisoned. It won't be fatal, but it will cause chaos. The imperial doctors will be too busy to handle the situation. If something really happens to the prince, the emperor will only blame the imperial doctors for not treating him in time."
"good!"
Gu Yanheng clenched the porcelain bottle in his hand. When he thought about the days when he was often grounded, he really had enough!
As long as the crown prince is killed, he will be the only one among the emperor's sons who is most suitable to succeed the throne.
By that time, the emperor's attitude towards him will no longer be the same as it is now.
"By the way, Jiang Li..."
Gu Yanheng suddenly remembered the woman who always ruined his plans at critical moments.
Qin Ji sneered, "Don't worry, I've already had her trapped. She won't be able to reach the main hall today."
Yongning Palace.
"I heard from the Emperor that you will return to the General's Mansion to celebrate the New Year tomorrow," the Queen Mother looked at Jiang Li with a distressed look on her face. "Poor girl, it's your first year married into the royal family, and Chen'er can't be with you."
"Don't worry, mother. It's already a favor from His Majesty that I can return to the General's Mansion to celebrate the New Year." Jiang Li said obediently, "Your Highness was born into an imperial family, so you must put the people first."
I feel more and more that I have digested the role of the princess very well.
Seeing the relief in the Queen Mother's eyes, Jiang Li gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.
As the two were chatting, Nanny Gui walked in from outside the hall with an anxious look on her face and whispered a few words into the empress dowager's ear.
"Is this really true?"
The Queen Mother's expression changed noticeably, and then she looked at Jiang Li, "Noble Concubine Shan sent someone to say that Little Thirteen has a sudden emergency and looks very dangerous."
"I heard that you have entered the palace. Concubine Shan wants to invite you over to take a look. Ah Li, look..."
Logically speaking, if the nobles in the harem and the princes were unwell, the first person they would seek out would be the imperial physician.
If the imperial physician is truly incapable, it is not impossible to seek another imperial physician for supervision.
What's more, today is a palace banquet. Jiang Li is not only the Imperial Physician Supervisor, but also the Princess of Jingling. It is actually against etiquette for her to go to Concubine Shan's palace to treat Xiao Shisan with this identity.
Concubine Shan?
Jiang Li remembered that she had performed a caesarean section on someone before, and she was Concubine Shan at that time.
"Don't worry, mother. The palace banquet hasn't started yet. I'll go take a look."
Ever since the last incident, Concubine Shan has asked for a lot of rewards for her, and Gu Qingchen told her that Concubine Shan's father, the Minister of Revenue, was originally a neutral faction, but later he actually targeted Qin Chuan, obviously to vent his anger for her.
Don't look at the monk, look at the Buddha. It won't be a problem for her to go and take a look.
She ordered the palace maid to go to the Imperial Hospital to get her medicine box, and Jiang Li also asked Bai Zhi to tell her mother so that she wouldn't worry if she didn't see her later.
When Jiang Li arrived outside Concubine Shan's bedroom, she saw the personal maid who had served Concubine Shan before come forward and bow deeply to her.
"Greetings, Princess."
"Alright, no need to be so polite. Where are Concubine Shan and the Thirteenth Prince?"
Without further delay, Jiang Li followed the palace maid inside. Before she entered, she heard crying.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I've already sent for Princess Jingling. When she arrives, the Thirteenth Prince will be fine."
As soon as she entered the room, Jiang Li heard a palace maid comforting Concubine Shan.
As soon as she walked around the screen, Concubine Shan saw Jiang Li at a glance. She quickly propped herself up and stood up from the couch. Then she knelt down in Jiang Li's direction. Jiang Li was so shocked that she supported her and asked, "My Lady, what are you going to do?"
"Please, Princess, please save Little Thirteen, please, Princess, please save Little Thirteen..."
Concubine Shan cried so much that her makeup was smudged, which shows the seriousness of the matter.
"Don't worry, let me see what's wrong with the Thirteenth Prince." Jiang Li took out a tranquilizing pill from the space and fed it to Concubine Shan. Then he glared at the palace maid standing beside him and said, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and help your queen to rest."
"yes."
Little Thirteen was now over half a year old, and he was a cute, chubby boy. Jiang Li remembered that the little fellow had a pair of big eyes like black grapes, and he looked very much like Concubine Shan.
But at this moment, the little cub was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, sweat all over his head, and his usually delicate and fair face had turned a little blue and purple.
"how so?"
Logically speaking, the temperature in this room is just right, which shows that Concubine Shan is served with all her heart.
But the little guy was suffering from heatstroke at this moment, and seemed to have been pinched by someone, and seemed to have difficulty breathing.
"In reply to your question, Princess, the Emperor sent someone this morning, asking Your Majesty to prepare and bring the Thirteenth Prince to the palace banquet. Your Majesty was worried about delays, so she had the wet nurse finish feeding him in advance and quickly changed the Thirteenth Prince into new clothes."
"Before the queen dressed up, the Thirteenth Prince was fine. I didn't expect that after the queen finished dressing up, the Thirteenth Prince would become like this."
The palace maid who greeted Jiang Li at the door cried and said, "We servants have been guarding the Thirteenth Prince all the time. We don't know what happened. He suddenly became like this."
