After Emperor Kangxi left, Consort Yi should have realized that ending the matter here was the right choice.
But she was furious. It was clearly the Imperial Noble Consort who harmed her son first, yet in the end, it was her son who suffered the injustice.
Why was the Imperial Noble Consort able to escape unscathed? The more Consort Yi thought about it, the angrier she became. In a fit of anger, she wanted to take Yinzhen and Zuimeng directly to Cining Palace, hoping that the Empress Dowager would make a decision for her.
She was clever enough to know that the Empress Dowager might actually stand up for her because of the Fifth Prince, and even if she didn't, it wouldn't be a loss for her.
Cining Palace
Consort Yi was crying and sobbing. She didn't wake up to see Yinzhen's face. Instead, she carried him to Cining Palace with her face covered in tears.
Consort Yi said, "Your Majesty, you must do justice for me and for Yintang! This child is in so much pain, but the medicine sent by the Imperial Noble Consort is faulty."
Consort Yi was certain there was something wrong with the medicine; she could tell that her son had indeed fainted from the pain.
So they felt more confident and took the medicine with them to prevent it from being switched by someone else.
The Empress Dowager was somewhat displeased to see Consort Yi crying, but after thinking about the Fifth Prince, she held back and said gently, "Is there some misunderstanding about this matter? Given the Imperial Noble Consort's personality, she would never lay a hand on a child."
It must be said that Wanwan acted very successfully over the past seven or eight years, successfully deceiving the Empress Dowager.
As for the Empress Dowager's words, even if she wasn't completely deceived, she was still largely fooled.
Consort Yi was almost choked to death by the Empress Dowager's words. Why? Why was the Emperor willing to believe the Imperial Noble Consort?
The Empress Dowager is willing to believe the Imperial Noble Consort; does that mean she doesn't care about her own son?
Would she joke about her own son?
Consort Yi's sorrow at this moment was genuine. Her crying earlier was still partly an act, but now it was different. She felt as if her heart had been wounded by two arrows in quick succession.
Consort Yi said, "Your Majesty, I truly hope there's some misunderstanding, but the evidence is right there on Yinzhen's body. He can't just lie there and faint from the pain, can he?"
Consort Yi said, "Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, you must do justice for me!"
The Empress Dowager did not believe Consort Yi's words. In her eyes, the Imperial Noble Consort would never lay a hand on a child. There must be some misunderstanding in this matter.
The Empress Dowager asked, "Did you bring your medicine? If so, I will have someone find the imperial physician to take a good look at you."
Upon hearing this, Consort Yi immediately stopped crying and smiled, nodding, "Yes, yes, I brought it with me when I came."
Consort Yi, I am so happy! The Empress Dowager uses the same Taiyin technique as the Grand Empress Dowager, so her medical skills are naturally the best in the palace.
If the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager's physicians say there's a problem with the medicine, then the Imperial Noble Consort will definitely not escape punishment this time.
Consort Yi said, "Thank you, Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, for standing up for me."
This time, it was the Empress Dowager who was speechless at Consort Yi's words. She only said to let the imperial physician check if there was a problem with the medicine, but she didn't say that she would make a decision for her. Besides, no matter how she made a decision, she didn't think the Imperial Noble Consort was wrong.
The Empress Dowager was also good-natured. "Wait a minute, let's see what it's like before we talk. If there's really a problem, then go to the Emperor. He will definitely stand up for you."
Seeing that Consort Yi still wanted to speak, the Empress Dowager cut her off, saying, "Let's wait for the imperial physician to arrive before we talk."
