He cared about the prince even more than he cared about himself.
The emperor stayed with Xu Lingyi for a long time. They leaned on each other and shared the same grief at this moment.
The emperor had just left the inner hall when Xu Lingyi fell asleep from crying herself tired.
Just then, Manager Zhang came rushing over.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother vomited blood and fainted."
The Emperor strode towards the Empress Dowager's palace and asked, "What did the Imperial Physician say?"
The Queen Mother was more eager for a prince than he was, and her health was not good to begin with.
Because the queen was pregnant, she felt supported and hopeful, and her spirits improved. She was in good health during this period.
But what will happen after this blow... the emperor doesn't know.
This was an extremely sad and dark day for the emperor, completely comparable to the day when Xu Lingyi gave birth prematurely.
When the emperor arrived at the empress dowager's palace, he smelled a strong smell of medicine.
"How?" asked the emperor.
His expression at the moment was so scary and gloomy that the imperial physician broke out in cold sweat in such weather.
The imperial physician knelt down, carefully choosing his words before finally speaking.
"The Empress Dowager suffered a great blow this time. Her rage overwhelmed her, causing her to vomit blood and faint... We, your humble servants, are not sure either."
Everyone in the palace knew how much the Queen Mother cared about the eldest prince. She almost knelt before the Buddha every day to pray, praying that the eldest prince would grow up safely.
She was even more looking forward to the unborn child in Xu Lingyi's belly. She wished she could hold the queen in her hands all the time. Every other day she would ask about her well-being and send Xu Lingyi rare treasures.
Xu Lingyi's mother and sisters-in-law were also treated with special respect. No one could compete with the Xu family's prestige in the capital.
The imperial physician's implicit meaning was that the empress dowager might not live long.
After all, he was physically weak and had been depressed for many years, and now he had suffered such a heavy blow.
The emperor stood there in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
He was clearly discussing with his mother yesterday about naming the baby in Xu Lingyi's belly.
The Queen Mother also said that she would make clothes for the child herself, even though her eyesight was not very good now.
Everything has become like this today.
