"Uncle, the most important thing about your help to the Eighth Prince is that it involves the Crown Prince."
"When the Eighth Prince was poisoned, Father Emperor suspected the Crown Prince first, and the Crown Prince almost got implicated!" He Xue said indignantly.
Fahai looked at Hexue and said with a smile, "So you came here to plead for the Crown Prince!"
He Xue blushed, "Of course, the Crown Prince is my man, and no one can bully him!"
He Xue's words made both Tong Guogang and his wife, as well as Tong Guowei and his wife, burst into laughter.
“Uncle Fahai, this time you misjudged people. I will explain it to the Crown Prince. I don’t want this to happen again, otherwise…” He Xue suddenly felt dizzy, her vision went black, and she fainted.
Before He Xue fainted, a figure quickly flashed in and caught her. "He Xue? He Xue? He Zhu, find the imperial physician!"
The Crown Prince barged into the Tongjia residence without the servants having time to report.
The Crown Prince entered and heard He Xue say, "The Crown Prince is my man, and no one can bully him!" Before he could even process the sweetness in his heart, he saw He Xue faint.
Tong Guogang and the others had not expected the Crown Prince to barge in, so they quickly bowed and said, "Greetings to the Crown Prince, Your Highness!"
The Crown Prince paid no attention to anyone else, only anxiously looking at He Xue. He Xue's expression was not good either. He hoped that He Xue was alright, otherwise he would make the Tongjia clan pay the price.
"Your Highness, please carry the Crown Princess to her room!" said Madam Tongjia.
The Crown Prince did not speak but picked up He Xue. Upon seeing this, Madam Tongjia immediately led the way.
As the Crown Prince passed by Fahai, he looked at him coldly and warned, "I do not wish for anything like this to happen again, or don't blame me for not showing consideration for Mother Tong and my fourth brother."
Fahai's heart skipped a beat. He knew that he had indeed been negligent in his considerations this time, so he assured the Crown Prince, "Yes, Your Highness, this servant will remember Your Highness's teachings!"
The imperial physician arrived at the Tongjia residence quickly. The crown prince glanced at him and looked at He Zhu with displeasure, "Where is Physician Liu?"
"Your Highness, although Physician Liu is the head of the Imperial Medical Academy, Physician Wang is more professional in treating the Crown Princess. All the ladies in the palace use Physician Wang! So this servant took the liberty of inviting Physician Wang here!" He Zhu said, forcing himself to speak.
"Your Highness, let the imperial physician examine the Crown Princess first!" said Lady Tongjia.
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and treat the Crown Princess!" the Crown Prince shouted at the still dazed Imperial Physician Wang.
The Crown Prince nervously held He Xue's hand, his palms sweaty.
The imperial physician wanted to remind the crown prince to get up, but when he met the prince's sharp gaze, he could only swallow his words and then stepped forward to treat He Xue under the prince's watchful eye.
A moment later, the imperial physician reported to the crown prince: "The crown princess was simply overworked and a little emotionally agitated, which caused her to faint suddenly. She will be fine after a few days of rest, and..."
The Crown Prince breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, then looked at Imperial Physician Wang and said before he could finish speaking, "I will believe you for now. If anything happens to the Crown Princess, I will not take your head!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Imperial Physician Wang thought to himself that the Crown Prince was actually a very nice person.
"Don't rush to thank me, I want the heads of your whole family!" the Crown Prince said with a smile.
Imperial Physician Wang wanted to take back what he had just said. "Your Highness, I dare not deceive you. Moreover, the Crown Princess is already one month pregnant!"
"What did you say?" the crown prince asked, his eyes wide with disbelief.
Imperial Physician Wang and Madam Tongjia. Madam Tongjia thought the Crown Prince was just happy and hadn't heard clearly, so Imperial Physician Wang repeated, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is pregnant!"
Only He Zhu was drenched in cold sweat. [It's over, the Crown Prince's head has turned pale!]
