The old emperor frowned, "You are brothers."
Jiang Jingchuan: "I know, because we are brothers, if someone else dared to use such dirty tricks on me, do you think they would still have a chance to kneel here?"
The old emperor was silent. In the final analysis, it was Prince Yan and his men who took action first.
The prince simply fought back, saying that the medicine and people were prepared by Prince Yan and his men themselves.
This matter...it seems that the prince cannot be blamed.
Moreover, his health was deteriorating, and he could no longer play the role of a peacemaker in the fight between his brothers.
Endless fighting will only make the government unstable.
He could not hand over a precarious dynasty to the crown prince.
After a long pause, he finally spoke, "Come here, the four princes have behaved improperly, been negligent and idle all day, and have no knowledge or skills. They are stripped of their princely titles and demoted to county princes. They are under house arrest from today!"
The four people who had lowered their heads just now raised their heads in shock.
After coming to his senses, he crawled to the old emperor's bed, begging for mercy as he crawled, "Father, Father, I was wrong, Father..."
"Father, I will never dare to do that again. Father, please forgive me..."
This time she cried much more sadly than when she saw the emperor vomiting blood.
The old emperor waved his hand wearily, "Take him away."
Immediately, a group of guards came and dragged them away.
Jiang Jingchuan was satisfied. He took the medicine from the bedside and fed it to the old emperor bit by bit.
"Father, please be less angry. Do you still think you are young and strong?"
His words were meant to tell the old emperor bluntly that he was not young anymore and should take good care of himself.
The old emperor just fell for his tricks, and seeing the concern in the prince's eyes, the depression in his heart dissipated a lot.
At least, the prince truly cares about his father.
It was worth it that he had taken great pains to bring the prince by his side and teach him since he was young.
He snorted lightly, "Only you dare to speak to me like that."
Jiang Jingchuan: "This is out of concern for Father."
The old emperor: "Care? I see you sound very angry."
"If I don't rush, you can listen to it?" He put down the medicine bowl and asked, "What did the imperial physician say?"
The old emperor thought he wanted to inquire about his condition, but the next moment, he saw the prince, who had just stood straight, lying beside his bed.
"Father, please don't be in any trouble. I don't want to be a fatherless child."
His voice was soft, but loud enough for two people to hear.
The old emperor immediately thought of the prince when he was a child.
At that time, he caught a cold and was seriously ill. He was lying in bed in a daze, just like today.
The prince was about three or four years old, very small, and insisted on staying by his side.
At that time, he also said in a muffled voice, "Father, please don't be in trouble. I don't want to be a fatherless child."
At that time, he only had two children. The prince was his legitimate son, and he had lost his mother at a young age. He brought him by his side and treated him like the apple of his eye.
Listening to that sweet voice, my heart softened.
Now seeing the prince like this again, he still couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.
He reached out and touched the prince's head, "Don't worry..." Dad will definitely pave the way for you.
Tu Qingyu watched this scene of loving father and filial son in Yunrui Palace and couldn't help but sigh, "The Crown Prince is the real movie star."
Dabao: "I knew it a long time ago, he's really a good actor."
The prince stayed in the emperor's bedroom for the whole day. He didn't know that because of a casual remark he made, two beautiful women came into Yunrui Palace with luggage at noon.
"Mammy, please let us meet Sister Tu. I heard that among the sisters His Highness brought with him when he left the palace this time, she is the most senior. How can we not go and pay our respects?"
The head nanny was a nanny in the palace, and she didn't know how important Tu Qingyu was to Jiang Jingchuan.
When one of the girls came forward and stuffed a jade bracelet of good quality into her hand, she nodded hesitantly.
"Alright, I'll go in and inform you. I don't know whether you will see me or not."
"Okay, thank you, Ma'am."
They said they were going to report something, but in fact the two people followed the nanny.
When the nanny entered the main hall, they waited at the door.
Tu Qingyu already knew what was going on.
At noon, when the prince was having lunch with the old emperor, a steward came in and asked whether the arrangements in Yunrui Palace were still the same as usual.
At that time, the prince was feeding the old emperor porridge. He said impatiently, "Just make your own arrangements."
He acted like a filial son to the fullest, and then this scene happened.
She threw the pillow at the door, "No, tell them to get out!"
Before the nanny went out to answer, there was a commotion outside.
"Sister, we are the ones accepted by His Highness, so we should pay our respects to you."
"Please come and see us, sister."
Tu Qingyu went out holding her stomach, and the two people who were shouting felt as if their necks were being strangled.
On the day they met the emperor, they only dared to secretly look up at the man in brocade clothes and paid no attention to the female members of the family.
No one told them that the prince's favorite concubine was so beautiful.
But... no matter how beautiful she is, she is pregnant now and can no longer serve the prince.
After the two of them realized what was happening, they bowed and said, "Greetings, sister. May you be well."
Tu Qingyu: "Who is your sister? My mother didn't give birth to many children, why are you randomly claiming to be a relative?"
The woman in red: "But we are all serving His Highness..."
Tu Qingyu: "Not to mention that you have no official status, even those Cheng Hui Zhao Xun in the Eastern Palace only call me Tu Liangyuan. Who do you think you are?"
The two people's faces looked very ugly, but they didn't dare to say anything when they looked at the people surrounding Tu Qingyu.
"Go down."
Seeing that no one was moving, he asked, "What? You want to kneel here?"
She flipped her hair and said, "Mammy, this is the first time I've heard such a cheap request in my life."
Nanny Yang: "Since they have asked, why don't you satisfy them?"
"That's right. Come here, guard them and make them kneel until His Highness comes back." Tu Qingyu smiled innocently, "Wait until His Highness comes back and see how He will deal with them."
"promise."
The nanny who brought them in was also confused. She saw that none of the servants brought from the Eastern Palace refuted Tu Liangyuan.
Even the steward He who was beside His Highness obeyed Tu Liangyuan's orders. She finally realized that things had gotten out of hand.
Tu Qingyu entered the inner hall and fell onto the couch. "Mammy, my stomach aches. Let's go get the imperial physician."
Nanny Yang immediately understood and ran out in a hurry, with anxiety and worry on her face.
Seeing this, Linghua hurriedly asked, "Mammy, what happened to the master?"
"The master said he had a stomachache. I saw that his face had turned pale with pain. Linghua, you are young and fast, go and get the imperial physician."
Linghua panicked for a moment, "I, I'll go right away."
He San saw Nanny Yang's expression and thought Tu Qingyu was in too much pain. "I'll go and ask His Highness to come back."
Nanny Yang stopped him and said, "The master said that His Highness is in the imperial presence now. How can we disturb him?"
"Can……"
