Xiao Jinyan didn't believe that poisonous insects would crawl onto the baby's body for no reason, and that Xiaojiu would also have poisonous insects on her body.

He slammed the table angrily, "Where did you take the baby to play? Tell the truth!"

The wet nurses were trembling with fear.

Susu was tired of crying and was about to sleep, but this slap startled her awake. She grabbed Chunxi's sleeve, raised her head and looked at her father with a confused look.

Shen Chuwei saw her daughter's reaction from the corner of her eye and kicked Xiao Jinyan's leg, "Be quiet, you scared your daughter."

Xiao Jinyan turned his head to look at his daughter, only to see her staring at him with a puzzled look on her face. He comforted her, "Be good, Susu. Father is catching the bad guys."

How could Susu understand what Xiao Jinyan said? She pouted her pink little mouth and said, "Daddy..."

Ever since Xiao Jinyan knew that dad meant father, he was extremely happy whenever he heard his daughter calling him dad.

"Father, please keep your voice down as much as possible."

Xiao Jinyan withdrew his gaze and looked at Xiaojiu first, only to see that she was still looking for the poisonous insect, and he couldn't help but be very worried.

"I will help you."

Shen Chuwei said: "The blood of poisonous insects is corrosive. If you accidentally crush it, it will be the end."

How could Xiao Jinyan dare to do it after hearing this? "Then you should do it yourself, it's more sensible."

"This is the only way." Shen Chuwei gritted his teeth and continued to look for the poisonous insect.

Just as Xiao Jinyan was about to continue questioning the nurses, a eunuch's shrill voice came from outside the door, "The Emperor has arrived!"

Seeing his father coming, Xiao Jinyan turned to look at Shen Chuwei, "I will go out to greet him first, don't panic."

"I know." Shen Chuwei lowered her head and looked at her arm, continuing to look for bugs.

Xiao Jinyan stood up and walked out, and saw that his father had already come to the door. He stepped forward to greet him: "Father."

The emperor saw the prince and asked in a deep voice, "I heard that the babies are not feeling well. What is going on?"

Xiao Jinyan said: "Father, the babies are infected with poisonous insects. Not only the babies, but also the Crown Princess and the wet nurse are infected with poisonous insects. These poisonous insects are very powerful and like to drill into people's skin. If you are not careful, your life will be in danger."

The emperor was shocked when he heard this and asked immediately, "How are the babies? Have you called the imperial physician?"

Xiao Jinyan was surprised to realize that he had not called Imperial Physician Wen over, because after knowing that Xiao Jiu was able to perform medical skills, he rarely called Imperial Physician Wen over.

"Don't worry, Father. The poisonous insects in the babies' bodies have been taken out. They are fine for now. But the poisonous insects in the Crown Princess' body have not been taken out yet."

The emperor said, "I will ask someone to go to the Imperial Hospital to call the imperial physician to go in and check on the babies first."

Xiao Jinyan went in with the emperor, and Shen Chuwei was in the inner room.

The babies had been carried to the couch outside. Because of Xiao Jinyan's pat and the shock just now, the two babies were now very awake.

When the emperor came in and saw Tao Su, he couldn't wait to stretch out his arms towards her. He said cheerfully, "Grandpa Emperor, can you give me a hug?"

Although Susu is only six months old, she knows who treats her well. Grandpa Huang often comes to hug her, so when Susu sees Grandpa Huang, she happily reaches out for a hug.

The emperor was very happy when he saw his granddaughter reaching out to him for a hug. He picked up Susu and looked at her red eyes from crying, feeling very distressed.

"Susu is so cute, how could the poisonous insect bear to have a baby?"

It was hard for Xiao Jinyan to disagree with his father's words. Tao Su was so adorable, how could anyone have the heart to kill her?

"This kind of poisonous insect has never appeared in the East Palace. I guess someone did it on purpose."

The emperor's eyes turned cold when he heard this: "Who dares to hurt Susu? I will never let her off easily."

Xiao Jinyan replied: "I don't know yet, I'm investigating."

The emperor said angrily: "Then investigate quickly. I want to see who dares to harm Tao Su."

Now whenever the two babies are mentioned, they are always called Taosu.

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyebrows and nodded, "I will definitely find out who dared to do this."

The emperor held Susu in his arms and was reluctant to let her go, so he teased her.

Xiao Jinyan walked into the inner room and saw Shen Chuwei still dealing with the poisonous insects. Her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. He took out a handkerchief from his sleeve pocket and wiped the sweat for her while asking.

"How is it? Have you found the poisonous insect?"

"It's almost there. I've found it." Shen Chuwei held the black poisonous insect with tweezers. She breathed a sigh of relief. "Finally, I took it out."

Xiao Jinyan looked at the wound on her arm caused by a blade. Although the wound was small, he still felt heartbroken when he saw it.

"I will help you bandage it."

Shen Chuwei had already spent a lot of energy and strength looking for the poisonous insect, so it would be better if someone could bandage it for him.

"good."

Xiao Jinyan took out the window sticker from the medicine box. Xiaojiu said that it was specially prepared for minor wounds and was very practical.

It didn't take long to put on a few band-aids.

Shen Chuwei picked up the teacup on the low table and took a few sips of water before she felt at ease.

Xiao Jinyan saw that her complexion looked a little bad, which also showed the harm caused by the poisonous insects. No wonder Tao Su cried so hard.

"I feel like something is fishy. I'm afraid someone is trying to harm Taosu on purpose."

When Shen Chuwei heard that someone was deliberately harming her baby, she immediately became unhappy, "Your Highness, who could it be?"

Xiao Jinyan brushed the hair off her forehead and said, "We don't know yet. You can take a rest first. I will find out the truth about this matter."

Shen Chu nodded slightly, "Whoever dares to hurt Tao Su must not be let off, no matter who it is."

When the imperial physician came, he examined Tao Su carefully.

After the emperor confirmed again and again that there was no problem, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The emperor watched as Susu in his arms fell asleep after being tired from playing. Her little appearance was so adorable.

"Susu is so cute."

The emperor was reluctant to let go of Susu, but unfortunately he was the king of a country and was busy with state affairs every day, so he couldn't hold Susu all the time.

He carefully put Susu into the crib and said, "Grandpa Huang, please go and get busy first. I will come to see you when I am free."

The emperor reluctantly withdrew his gaze, left the East Palace, and went directly to the Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother had just woken up from a nap and was drinking the tea that Wanxin had freshly brewed.

The emperor smiled faintly and said, "Mother, I just came back from the East Palace. The babies are indeed not feeling well and they keep crying. Their eyes are red from crying. It makes sense that the Crown Princess doesn't allow them to hold them. She's afraid of disturbing you."

The Queen Mother became even angrier upon hearing this, "Is it so serious? How can the Crown Princess be a mother?"

The emperor explained, "Mother, the Crown Princess cannot hold the babies all the time. Aren't they all taken care of by the wet nurses? The Crown Princess is not feeling well either."

"In my opinion, the Crown Princess is an unqualified mother. Why does the Emperor like to protect such a woman?" The Queen Mother thought of what the Queen had done and still felt that Concubine Xu was more suitable to be the Queen.

The emperor guessed what the queen mother meant when he heard it, "Mother, you have just returned to the palace. When you spend more time with the crown princess, you will know that she is a very good child and the queen likes her very much."

Although the Queen Mother was old, she reacted quickly, "The Emperor appointed her as the Crown Princess because the Queen liked her?"

The emperor explained, "It's not entirely the Queen's fault. I hope the babies are born of legitimate parents rather than illegitimate children. Besides, although the Crown Princess does not have a prominent family background, she is still a good person. I believe in the Queen's vision."

The Queen Mother snorted, "In the royal family, the former dynasty and the harem are closely connected, and the future queen is particularly important. I heard that the Crown Prince only favors the Crown Princess, and the other women in the Eastern Palace don't even have the opportunity to see the Crown Prince. No wonder it's been more than two years since he took the concubine, but he only has two children."

The emperor rubbed his temples, feeling a headache. "What the queen mother said makes sense. I will urge the prince to be fair and just and have many children."

"What's the point of just urging him? We need to make the prince take actual action."

"I understand."

The emperor came out of the Cining Palace and took a deep breath. If he had a way to make the prince equally treated, would he have waited until now? No, he had to deal with business quickly. He had to go to Fengyi Palace tonight. As long as he refused to leave, the queen couldn't do anything to him!

The emperor went straight to the imperial study to handle government affairs.

After the emperor left, the empress dowager had a stern face.

Wan Xin smiled and comforted her: "Queen Mother, I have prepared some flower cakes. After you eat them, your mood will definitely improve."

"You really understand me." The Queen Mother took Wanxin's hand and suddenly asked, "How about I marry you to the Crown Prince? You can be a concubine."

Wan Xin lowered her eyes and said shyly, "Queen Mother, I can't bear to leave you. You are like my own grandmother. I want to spend more time with you and not rush to get married."

The Queen Mother was very happy to hear this, "Silly child, you can come and accompany me often after you marry into the palace."

Wan Xin showed a gentle and somewhat mischievous smile: "But I just want to be with the Queen Mother all the time and serve her."

The Queen Mother happily responded, "Then wait a little longer."

Shen Chuwei woke up after sleeping for an hour, and the first thing he did was to see Tao Su.

Tao Su had also woken up by now, and was sitting in her crib, playing happily with a snowball. Children's happiness was simple and easy to satisfy, as if the insect bite had never happened.

Susu grabbed Xuetuan's tail and dragged her to her side, mumbling with her pink little mouth: "Mom...Mom..."

Xuetuan called out: "Meow!"

Shen Chuwei couldn't help laughing when she saw this, "Susu is getting better and better at calling mommy."

Seeing Tao Su and the others playing, she took out the glass bottle and began to study the black poisonous insects inside.

Concubine Xue had been waiting for news. When she saw Shui Yao walking in quickly, she didn't even bother to drink her tea, "Are they all dying?"

"Princess, I haven't heard the news. The emperor has come and just left. It doesn't look like anything has happened. His Highness is investigating the matter thoroughly." Shui Yao said.

Concubine Xue tightly grasped the teacup in her hand, her eyes full of unwillingness: "Such a poisonous insect, if it gets into the skin and is not taken out in time, it will definitely kill them. There is no way they are still alive."

Shui Yao was also very puzzled. "But I saw that the Hehuan Palace was the same as usual, nothing unusual."

"Princess, why don't you wait and see, there will definitely be good news."

"This is the only way." Concubine Xue frowned. Now she could only wait. She didn't believe that Shen Chuwei and the two children were so lucky.

In the side room

The wet nurses have been restless ever since the babies got into trouble. They feel scared and confused at the same time.

"We didn't go anywhere else today, so how did we get infected with poisonous insects?"

"I was wondering too. The young masters have always been held in our arms. We wouldn't dare to hold ordinary people in our arms."

"Fortunately, the young masters are all fine, otherwise we would have to be buried with them."

"That's right. Now that I think about it, my hands and feet are weak."

The nurse seemed to remember something: "Could it be related to Shui Yao? She can send flowers to the babies, but she has never met anyone else."
