Kangxi was somewhat puzzled, as this was a rare instance of the fourth prince showing his emotions.
Yinzhen himself was unaware that he had been influenced by Xue Li without realizing it. Xue Li never deliberately belittled her children for fear of making them proud!
If you want to discourage them, just show them the scholars who took the imperial examinations!
Meanwhile, Sydney has started a sting operation!
After fishing for more than a month, Shirley finally encountered Ulanara's methods.
Don't ask her why she's making such a fuss.
Firstly, she wanted to use it sparingly.
Secondly: She wants him to reap what he sows!
This time, the medicine packet was buried in the soil, and Xue Li happily moved it to the pot of peonies in the Fujin's bedroom.
Yinzhen was thoughtful; he gave her ink chrysanthemums, his wife peonies, and Lady Nian autumn chrysanthemums.
Later, she replaced the potted plant with a Jade Phoenix and arranged for someone to keep an eye on the eunuch in the flower room.
To avoid alerting the enemy.
Feeling somewhat exhausted, Sherry slept in a daze for several days.
Yinzhen would steal a moment from his busy schedule to visit her every day.
The princess thought that Shirley had won and laughed out loud with joy.
Ning Kuoliqike and Sigegemayi looked at each other in bewilderment.
Within two days, the princess fell seriously ill and never recovered.
Sherry was very kind and revealed the secret of the flowerpot to Nian.
Consort Nian tearfully begged Yinzhen to make the decision!
Yinzhen initially thought she was just making baseless accusations again, but when he saw the unpleasant expression on the face of the main wife's personal maid, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
Then they summoned the imperial physician!
The imperial physician took her pulse, then found some medicinal powder, dissolved it in water, and had Nian put her hand in it!
Looking at her yellowed fingertips, the old imperial physician had a complicated expression, then shook his head at Yinzhen and left.
Mr. Nian was so frightened that his face turned pale!
"Your Highness, Consort Nian has been poisoned by a secret medicine from Tibet! If it weren't for the family's handwritten notes, it would be difficult to recognize her!"
"Yes, I would be grateful if you could do your best to treat me!"
The old physician's expression was complex. After hesitating for a long time, he said, "Fortunate yet unfortunate! Fortunately, 60% of the poison was in the fetus, so even if the miscarriage is terminated, the fetus can still survive. The unfortunate thing is that even if the child is born, it will not live for more than six months! Both mother and daughter will die!"
Yinzhen frowned, while Nian Qiuyue, who was eager to know the truth, fainted upon hearing the imperial physician's words!
Another chaotic scene ensued, and Yinzhen glanced at Su Peisheng!
Su Peisheng went out, followed closely by a plain-looking but very steady little eunuch.
“It’s clearly the Fujin (princess) –” another maid, Songyue, suddenly spoke up, but was pulled back by the old woman.
"Please, Your Majesty, do justice for our master! Imperial Physician, could you tell us if this potted plant is the cause?!" Nian's wet nurse couldn't sit still any longer.
How could the girl she raised single-handedly know this?!
The old doctor looked surprised and immediately broke off a petal and put it in the basin of water.
Instantly, the petal was filled with white bubbles.
The old imperial physician looked at Yinzhen and nodded!
Yinzhen closed his eyes, and as if he had thought of something, he arranged for someone to take away the servants in the flower room.
Then he prescribed medicine for Madam Nian and took the old doctor to Yaotai Pavilion.
Sherry was exhausted and slept for several days.
Using the same methods as an old imperial physician, he took her pulse and then stroked his beard, saying, "The concubine often plays with some spirit jade. Remember, it's spirit jade! It can relieve fatigue!"
Sherry was dumbfounded: That's amazing?!
Yinzhen's expression visibly softened.
Then he instructed the imperial physician to say more, and he picked up his pen to record it.
The old imperial physician had a long story to tell; he looked at Xue Li and then at Yinzhen.
Just then, a young eunuch came running over.
"Your Highness, Consort Nian woke up crying uncontrollably and ran to the main courtyard to attack the Prince Consort. The Prince Consort accidentally pushed Consort Nian, causing her to miscarry!"
Then, everyone hurriedly went to the main courtyard!
Sherry felt a little dizzy and just fell asleep!
When Sherry woke up, it was already the next day.
"The Fujin was weak but the cause could not be found. The concubine said that the Fujin was being punished for causing great harm. The Fujin initially denied it, but the master found out the cause in less than one night!"
Sharing the raindrops with Sherry!
Ulanara's medicine is amazing! How come it didn't detect anything?!
"And also, Consort Nian miscarried, and I heard it's a little princess! What a pity, her health wasn't good to begin with, tsk tsk tsk~ I heard she'll have to stay in bed for the rest of her life~"
The fallen flowers spoke with a sly air, their expression one of utter desolation, as if they had seen through the ways of the world.
Shirley didn't care about any of that. She thought that Lady Nian would have a falling out with the Fujin, and that Lady Nian would also poison the Fujin, so that she could cleverly disappear.
The result was that Na Jie, who seemed gentle and weak, was actually quite irritable at heart and directly beat up the Fujin!
The princess never imagined in her life that someone would lay a hand on her face, and in a fit of anger, she shoved him.
Originally, Ms. Nian was clumsy and weak, so she died instantly, saving the need for abortion pills.
But that's alright, at least from this perspective, all three of them are in bad shape!
Sherry intends to remain in a coma!
She felt that her technique could be improved.
Who knows, the next one might be a qualitative leap!
Yinzhen was quick enough to suppress the news; outsiders only knew that the concubine in the mansion was seriously ill.
I don't know why!
But Emperor Kangxi knew.
He thought that his high regard for Hongyi had stirred up some restless people's ideas!
Otherwise, why would one primary wife and two secondary wives be bedridden?!
Is this an attempt to sow discord between the fourth son and his wife's family?!
Kangxi began to engage in conspiracy theories.
Yinzhen was utterly disappointed by what he had found out.
The princess said nothing, even when the evidence was irrefutable.
In a fit of anger, Yinzhen confined her to her quarters and made her copy scriptures to pray for blessings!
The third and fourth princesses were then placed in the front courtyard for upbringing. The Fujin (principal wife) remained relatively strong when facing Yinzhen (the future emperor).
But as soon as the palace doors closed, he collapsed, feeling weak and powerless.
She racked her brains, trying to figure out who had leaked the information.
How did Mr. Nian know this?
But it's nothing. Yinzhen just doesn't love her, but he wouldn't take it out on the two princesses.
But neither of the two women he dotes on will survive!
She is their only mother, and the only future Empress Dowager!
Ulanara then fell into a deep sleep.
She only thought that Sherry had been poisoned and never considered her own situation.
The servants who were attending to her also thought that the princess had lost her temper and that's why she fell ill.
Meanwhile, Lady Nian took the opportunity to mistreat the Fujin, since the power to manage the household was now in the hands of Granny Mo.
Yinzhen understood her resentment and turned a blind eye to it.
The Nian family became even more outrageous!
Shirley didn't care about any of that. Because she had been lying there with her eyes closed studying the cultivation technique for too long, Yinzhen stayed with her every day, fearing that she might fall asleep and never wake up.
Yinzhen himself understood that since his wife had taken action, she would definitely not let Xue Li go.
She couldn't tolerate the Nian family, let alone Shirley. It's not like she hasn't taken action against them before!
The soil in that pot of black chrysanthemums was indeed not clean, but it had been in the corner for so long that nothing could be found!
He assumed that Xue Li was vying for favor with Nian Shi, which was why she asked for an extra pot of food.
No one expected that Ulanara would not survive the New Year.
The imperial physician diagnosed that the princess was depressed and had several dangerous childbirths, which was why she couldn't survive due to her depleted health.
