Lady Nian screamed desperately, but no one paid any attention to her cries. At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Fourth Master and Lanqin in the inner room, and the sounds of fighting outside had already drowned out her cries.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Lady Nian had no choice but to squeeze in with the little prince in her arms, calling out "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" as she did so.
"Stop shouting! Your crying is deafening me!" The Fourth Prince finally couldn't help but shout. In fact, he had heard Lady Nian's shouts earlier, but his mind was entirely on Lanqin, and he hadn't paid any attention to Lady Nian. Now, he couldn't hold back any longer and shouted out loud.
Lady Nian was unaware that Lanqin had been stabbed. She only thought that the Fourth Prince was protecting Lanqin inside. Upon hearing the Fourth Prince's reproach, she immediately burst into tears, crying out, "Your Majesty, the young prince has fallen and he doesn't look well. Please, Your Majesty, quickly find the imperial physician!"
Everyone then automatically made way for Lady Nian to enter. The Fourth Prince finally understood Lady Nian's words, and his heart tightened. His entire focus had been on Lanqin, but hearing that the young prince was unwell, he felt a burning pain within him. Thinking that Lady Nian should have stayed in the palace but insisted on bringing the young prince out, he vented all his resentment and anger on her: "I told you to stay in Yikun Palace, but you insisted on bringing the young prince out. Now if anything happens to him, it's your responsibility as his mother!"
Before Lady Nian could even see the person on the bed clearly, she heard the Fourth Prince's words and immediately felt like she was about to collapse. She staggered toward the Fourth Prince, carrying her child, about to cry out, when she suddenly saw the person lying on the bed. It was clearly Lady Ran, Niohuru, and her face was extremely pale, even bloodless!
What's wrong with Niohuru?! Nian Shi's already extremely depressed state of mind was suddenly taken aback by this unexpected situation.
"The imperial physician is here! The imperial physician is here!" Su Peisheng's voice suddenly rang out from the doorway. It turned out that while the Fourth Prince was carrying Lanqin and running into the palace, calling for the imperial physician, Su Peisheng immediately took advantage of the chaos outside and found a side path to find the imperial physician himself.
It turned out that there were only three assassins, so as soon as Su Peisheng ran out, he immediately told them about the assassination attempt on Penglai Island. The guards patrolling outside also rushed to the island.
The imperial physician was pulled along by Su Peisheng the whole way, and neither of them dared to slack off for even a moment.
"Your Majesty, quickly have the imperial physician examine the young prince!" Lady Nian's thoughts shifted, and she regained her composure. It's truly a blessing that Lady Niohuru died at this moment; that would be wonderful indeed.
"Why? Mother is more seriously injured!" Hongli couldn't help but cry out. Although Hongfu was his younger brother, at this moment, his heart was filled with thoughts of his mother. He only wished that the imperial physician would treat his mother as soon as possible, and he couldn't afford to delay any longer.
In fact, the Fourth Prince and Hongli had the same idea, but Hongfu was very young, and if he was delayed, his life might be in danger.
The imperial physician stood there, waiting for the Fourth Prince's order; he dared not make decisions on his own about who to treat first.
Fourth Master really wanted to show it to Lanqin first, but then he saw Hongfu, his youngest son, and he just couldn't bring himself to say it.
"Your Majesty..." A weak voice came from behind, it was Lanqin calling for the Fourth Prince.
