Chapter 148: My younger brother is seriously ill



"You ran into the yard by yourself. Are you getting up to go to the bathroom? Why are you making such a fuss?" the old lady scolded.

"No, he was standing in the yard with his eyes brighter than ever before, looking in one direction and grinning foolishly, saying, "Wait for him..." Could it be that some evil creature has caused trouble in the mansion?"

"Don't talk nonsense. The General's Mansion is the most righteous place. If there is any evil here, the only place left in the capital is the Imperial Palace!"

"But mother, Mingxuan hasn't eaten anything for two days and can't even take his medicine..." Lian Jinrong covered her face and sobbed.

Mrs. Chu tried to persuade him, "Didn't the imperial physician examine him? What did he say?"

"The imperial physician lied with his eyes open. He said Mingxuan was fine and that two doses of medicine would be enough. But now he has taken four doses and there is no improvement. Instead, his condition is getting worse. Who would still believe him?" Lian Jinrong complained.

“Then ask Zhong Tao to invite all the famous doctors in the capital to come and see what they say... You don’t have to panic so much. Children are bound to get sick. Even a prince who is blessed with great fortune will have minor ailments, not to mention the children of us common people. You should go back and take care of yourself. Don’t fall down first. Look at your body, you are so weak..." the old lady sighed.

"My mother must be worried about me. I've been having nightmares these past few days and seeing strange things. I can't even have a good sleep..." Lian Jinrong sighed as she spoke.

The old lady talked to her for a few words, and her face became impatient. Lian Jinrong also tactfully withdrew when she saw this. Returning to the yard, she beat and scolded the servants again, saying that they were not careful about their dreams, and that they didn't know who had brought back what. She asked them to tell her where they had been. The maids were miserable.

An Qingran didn't expect that An Mingxuan's illness would last for three days without any improvement. She couldn't help but wonder what kind of illness was it that even the imperial physician couldn't diagnose it?

When An Zhongtao came back from the palace, he also went to Lanxiao Pavilion to see An Mingxuan. An Mingxuan just kept crying and shouting nonsense, saying that someone wanted to arrest him, that there were ghosts, etc. An Zhongtao didn't believe in such things the most and wanted to stop him from talking nonsense, but when he saw that his little face was deflated, he couldn't help but feel distressed and coaxed him softly, but this made An Mingxuan even more angry and he cried a lot. An Zhongtao was very annoyed and distressed and didn't know what to do!

Lian Jinrong looked particularly pitiful at the moment, looking weak, her face was no longer powdered, it was just white, her hair had lost its luster and was tied up in a loose bun, her eyes were red, and her voice was pitiful, which made An Zhongtao relax a little: "Don't worry too much, at least I'm here!"

Hearing what he said, Lian Jinrong's eyes revealed resentment and grievance: "General, I have done a lot of wrong things all along. Now I just eat vegetarian food every day, hoping that all the disasters will fall on me, so that our Xuan'er will get better soon..."

An Zhongtao nodded but said nothing.

Lian Jinrong slowly approached the bedside, where An Zhongtao was sitting. Lian Jinrong was only a foot away from him. An Zhongtao smelled a familiar fragrance. He was stunned for a moment. This was the scent she had been wearing recently. I heard that it was the scented powder given to her by the old lady. It seemed that she was not completely unadorned, but he could not tell. He took a closer look and found that the powder was indeed very light. This made him feel disgusted, so he stood up with a flick of his sleeves, "Take good care of him. Come to me if you have any problems!"

Having said that, he walked out.

Lian Jinrong looked at his back with hatred in her eyes, and said coldly: "Are you going to have a legitimate son? You don't even care about your own son... Mingxuan, don't blame your mother. You saw how your father treated you..."

An Mingxuan calmed down, his face still flushed red. He looked at Lian Jinrong and his voice became hoarse: "Mother, I want to eat frozen plums..."

"Just bear with it for a while. You can't just eat that thing casually..." Lian Jinrong's voice was extremely gentle when she spoke.

Lian Jinyu looked at An Zhongtao opposite her and saw a worried look on his face. She couldn't help but comfort him, "What's wrong with Mingxuan? Why is it that he keeps dragging it on?"

An Zhongtao sighed: "I don't know how she raised the child. Although the tutor was a bit vulgar, fortunately she didn't do anything too bad. Now it's great!"

"You can't blame Concubine Lian entirely. It's normal for a child to have a fever in summer..." Lian Jinyu really wanted to tell An Zhongtao to ask her senior brother to come, but she thought that her senior brother might not be available. Not only did she understand his feelings for her but she couldn't respond. Asking him to help would be cruel to him.

Furthermore, I was afraid that An Zhongtao would misunderstand, so I didn’t say it.

An Qingran was still planting herbs and constantly reviewing the acupuncture techniques. At the same time, she was also studying how to use needles to make up for the lack of strength in her kung fu. However, it was a bit difficult to coordinate the force and the acupuncture. She placed a small wooden man at the head of her bed, with all the acupuncture points on it. When Rendong saw it, she felt dizzy. Therefore, when An Qingran was practicing, Rendong hid far away. She knew that the young lady was doing serious work, and it was a very important thing that she could not understand. This made her admire and respect her!

Therefore, she took the initiative to do other things for the young lady, such as serving the monkey and gathering information. She always felt that things were constantly happening in the general's mansion, and the young lady would suffer if she was not careful.

An Qingran had a very fulfilling day, except that the things about Lian Jinrong and her son kept coming to her ears!

She didn't know what happened to An Mingxuan, but she always felt that Lian Jinrong's nightmare was strange. Could it be that she had done something wrong?

She waited quietly, and there would always be a moment when the clues would show up.

She didn't take An Mingxuan's illness seriously. Her father had invited all the imperial doctors in the palace, and they were naturally much better than her own mediocre level, so she didn't go forward to try.

Lian Jinyu has also been worried about the matter of Lian Jinrong and her son recently. Originally, the general's mansion was very quiet for more than two months, and Lian Jinrong became well-behaved. She thought it was a blessing for the baby in her belly. But now, she heard from Madam Hong that Lian Jinrong kept shouting in the middle of the night, and the lights in the yard were on all night. This made the general's mansion restless. The old lady in Beiyuan heard the commotion in the front yard, but she was not impatient at all. Even Chu was surprised to find that she was in such a good mood and nothing could disturb her.

An Ranyue was very close to An Yanran during this time, but she would also visit An Mingxuan from time to time and come back to report the situation to her mother. Originally, she was depressed because she had not been close to Dongfang Yan these days, and suddenly this new thing happened in the mansion.
