It's no wonder Tong Cheng'er is suspicious, given how constantly Consort Wuya acts up.
However, she appeared even more worried and anxious than the nanny beside her: "Why did Mother suddenly faint? Quickly, go and fetch the imperial physician."
The Imperial Medical Academy staff were not happy to hear that it was the woman from Yonghe Palace who had fainted.
This mistress complains of headaches and discomfort all day long, even when she's not sick. The imperial physicians are driven crazy by her annoyance, and to make matters worse, there's no reward money for her. This is quite distressing.
With Consort Wuya's family gone, she naturally lost her source of income, so she couldn't provide for herself in every aspect.
After a period of chaos and turmoil, the imperial physician finally arrived.
Upon taking his pulse, the imperial physician was surprised to find that the emperor was not faking it; he had actually fainted, and from anger no less.
The imperial physician showed no outward expression, but inwardly he was thinking, "Who has such great ability to make this troublesome master faint? Truly... well done."
"Your Majesty fainted, but it's nothing serious. She'll be fine after a nap, and she'll take some calming medicine when she wakes up."
As for the matter of fainting from anger, the imperial physician selectively ignored it when he saw the Fourth Prince's wife.
He had received favors from the Fourth Prince, so he could easily lend a hand with this small favor.
The old nanny, standing nearby, couldn't help but ask, "What caused Your Highness to faint?"
The imperial physician said, "Your Highness is just overthinking things. Once you're better, please have the nanny tell Your Highness to stop worrying. Otherwise, you'll inevitably repeat this behavior in the future."
The old woman believed her and said, "Thank you, Imperial Physician."
Upon hearing this, Tong Cheng'er asked many more questions. The imperial physician treated Tong Cheng'er, the Fourth Prince's wife, well and answered all her questions.
However, her meticulous attitude made the imperial physician think to himself that he must have misunderstood. The Fourth Princess Consort seemed to be very filial to Consort Wuya, so it was unlikely that she was the one who made her faint.
He couldn't help but sigh. Although Consort Wuya was not a very good person, her son and daughter-in-law treated her very well. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this consort was ungrateful.
Finally, the imperial physician left with a sigh in his heart.
Seeing that her good mother-in-law had not yet woken up, Tong Cheng'er said to the nanny of Yonghe Palace, "Since Mother has fainted, I will stay here and watch over her. Please trouble the nanny to have someone bring over a small wooden bed."
I wonder when Consort Wuya will wake up. The stool is too hard and uncomfortable to sit on.
Although the nanny had some complaints, she still sent someone to move it. The princess really fainted. As a servant, she couldn't gain any advantage over the fourth princess's mistress.
The small wooden couch was moved in and placed two meters away from Consort Wuya's bed.
After finishing some tasks, Tong Cheng'er said to Lan Xing, "Bring me a book. I'll read while I wait for Mother to wake up."
Lan Xing, being quite sensible, took a storybook.
As she handed over the storybook, she couldn't help but admire the shrewdness of the matron in the manor. Before she came, the matron had asked her to bring many things, including this storybook with the cover of the Analects.
She originally thought she wouldn't need this thing, but unexpectedly, she actually did.
Tong Cheng'er nodded as she watched Lan Xing's actions, indicating her satisfaction.
Tong Cheng'er was reclining on a small wooden couch in Yonghe Palace, reading a storybook only two meters away from Consort Wuya.
I feel so comfortable.
At the Ministry of Revenue, Su Peisheng skillfully took the food from Gao Wuyong and then asked, "Did the Princess Consort send any message to the Master?"
Except for the first day, in the past few days, whenever the Fujin (princess) sent Gao Wuyong to deliver meals, she would also bring a message. Although it wasn't much, the master was very happy to hear it.
Gao Wuyong handed the food to Su Peisheng, and then said, "Today, Consort Wuya in the palace suffered a relapse of her old illness and summoned the Fujin (wife) to the palace to attend to her. Before leaving, the Fujin told her to tell Master to do his job well and eat well."
Su Peisheng frowned: "Has Consort Wuya's old ailment flared up again?"
Gao Wuyong nodded helplessly: "That's right!"
In the past, when his old ailment flared up, he would summon the master; now, he summons the princess consort.
Su Peisheng: "I will tell the master."
"Okay, I'll head back now."
Su Peisheng carried the food box to where Yinzhen was on his business, then laid out the food. Yinzhen held the food and, while eating, asked Su Peisheng, "Did the Fujin (consort) say anything?"
Su Peisheng: "Consort Wuya's old illness has relapsed, and she summoned the Fujin (wife of the emperor) to the palace to attend to her. Before leaving, the Fujin told the emperor to do his job well and eat well."
Yinzhen was taken aback when he heard this. He had been living too comfortably lately and had almost forgotten that he had such a troublesome mother.
Yinzhen finished his meal in silence, and then worked much faster in the afternoon.
After finishing his errands, he left the Ministry of Revenue and headed to the palace, eventually arriving at Yonghe Palace.
Although his wife was very capable, he was still afraid that she would be hurt.
The first time Yinzhen left the Ministry of Revenue early, when he arrived at Yonghe Palace, Consort Wuya was still asleep!
He entered with a cold expression: "How is Mother?"
The eunuch being questioned was startled by his cold, hard face, and then stammered, "Reporting to the Fourth Prince, Her Majesty is still unconscious!"
Are you dizzy?
Didn't they say Mother's old illness had flared up again? How come she fainted?
Yinzhen then asked, "Where is the Fujin (wife)?"
The young eunuch said with a strange expression, "The Fourth Princess Consort is guarding the Empress!"
Although Yinzhen didn't know what was going on, he wanted to see his young consort first.
After asking the question, he walked towards the main hall.
At the door, I ran into the old woman.
The old woman said, "Greetings, Fourth Prince."
"Get up, Mother and the Princess Consort are inside, right?"
The old nanny nodded numbly: "The Empress and the Fourth Prince's wife are both here."
