Just then, palace servants led the imperial physicians in a hurry. The leading physician first bowed respectfully to the Fourth Prince, who strode forward, grabbed the physician, and said urgently, "Quick...quickly go and check on Consort Xi's injuries..."
"Your Majesty, please come and see Hongfu! Why is he crying so much?" Lady Nian was afraid that something was wrong with Hongfu. She became anxious whenever she saw him crying. In fact, the child was just frightened, so of course he would cry.
"He's just tired and frightened. Your Highness, please take Hongfu back to Changchun Immortal Pavilion to rest," the Fourth Prince said. "Your presence here will only make Hongfu more anxious and restless!"
Upon hearing this, Lady Nian realized that she herself was on the verge of emotional collapse, and her child also became agitated and cried incessantly. However, at this moment, it seemed inappropriate for her to leave like this. She didn't know what was going on with Lady Niohuru, and it would be best if she could die in this assassination attempt, then she would have one less formidable enemy.
Thinking of this, Lady Nian looked at the Fourth Prince's expression again, and saw that the Fourth Prince was slightly angry and pursed his lips without saying a word.
Hongfu is crying and making a fuss again, and nothing can soothe him.
"Then I'll take Hongfu back to Changchun Immortal Pavilion first. I'm still worried about how Consort Xi is doing. But Hongfu is crying and fussing, and I can't help him here. So I'll take my leave now," said Madam Nian after thinking for a moment.
Fourth Master nodded, signaling her to take Hongfu and leave first.
When Bechuk saw that Nian had finally left, he breathed a sigh of relief, feeling utterly disgusted by Nian's hypocritical pretense.
Bechuk kept staring intently into the inner room, and Hongli comforted her, "Mother is blessed with good fortune; she will surely escape this calamity..."
Even Hongzhou, who was usually fearless, was stunned. Seeing Biechuk cry, he couldn't help but shed tears himself.
Bechuk clung to Hongli's shoulder, crying, "Hongli, Mother bled so much, I'm so scared..."
Hongli held back his tears, patted Bechuk on the back, and whispered, "The imperial physicians have already gone in, Mother will be saved..."
Seeing Biechuke's distressed state, Fourth Master angrily said, "Stop crying! No one is allowed to cry! Your mother will be alright. You all go back..."
With red eyes, Bechuk shook his head and said, "I won't leave. I want to stay with Mother. Father, please let us stay here..."
Hongli turned around and pleaded, "Father, let's stay here. Perhaps Mother will wake up and want to see us..."
Hongzhou nodded, indicating that he did not want to leave, so the Fourth Master had no choice but to agree.
The Thirteenth Prince's wife, who had been standing in the corner, slowly walked over. The Thirteenth Prince was slightly taken aback, only then realizing that his wife had not left.
The Fourth Prince felt somewhat guilty for reprimanding the Thirteenth Prince without even asking what happened. The Thirteenth Prince seemed to know what the Fourth Prince was thinking, and put his arm around his wife, saying, "Your Majesty, please let us stay here too. In case anything happens, we can lend a hand..."
The Thirteenth Prince's wife nodded and continued, "Your Majesty, Consort Xi will be alright. Heaven will surely protect her and help her get through this difficult time... Consort Xi is such a good person, Heaven wouldn't be so cruel."
After saying this, Zhao Jia couldn't help but sob. She had been holding back her tears, but now she couldn't hold them back anymore.
Fourth Master nodded silently, staring blankly into the inner room without blinking.
