"Your Majesty, just now the eldest grandson was held by many women in the hall.
All the women sitting here today have put on makeup before. They all use makeup powder, rouge and other items. And each person uses different things.
If too much is used, not to mention the smell, a lot of it will float into the air, and then when you hold the eldest grandson in your arms, he will inhale some of it when he breathes.
And since so many people were holding him just now, it's probably because the eldest grandson inhaled too much and became ill." Yu Yuanzheng analyzed.
Even she used it, but she didn't like heavy makeup, so she only used a little bit, and you couldn't feel the smell.
When the emperor heard this, he thought it made sense.
"Imperial Physician, please treat me quickly." The emperor left this sentence and turned to go to the main hall with an ugly look on his face.
"Yuan Zheng, what should we do now?" Yue Yuying hugged the child with heartache.
"Don't worry. Fortunately, the child responded quickly and the disease was discovered in time. Let the imperial physician prescribe a prescription for the child to take a medicinal bath. Now open all the windows to allow air to circulate. The eldest grandson will feel more comfortable. Use some lung-clearing medicine and let the wet nurse drink it, and then feed the child." Yu Yuanzheng suggested.
The couple felt a little relieved.
The imperial physician also heard what Yu Yuanzheng said and wrote two prescriptions on the spot. This kind of thing can be handled by the imperial physician, and Yu Yuanzheng doesn't need to interfere.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." The eldest prince bowed.
If she hadn't analyzed the cause, they wouldn't know how long they would have to think about it.
It is still unknown whether there is any human involvement.
The emperor entered the hall with such a gloomy face that no one dared to speak.
Then he swept his eyes over all the women, especially those who had held the eldest grandson.
The one who received a severe look from the Emperor was Concubine Yun.
She was the first one to ask to hold the eldest grandson. If she hadn't taken the initiative, how could the eldest grandson let everyone take turns holding him?
The concubines and two daughters-in-law in the palace were the first to hold it.
"Eunuch Hai, have someone prepare cold water. All the women, go out and wash your faces.
Queen, no rouge or powder may be distributed in the palace for four months, and the concubines and maids may not wear makeup and must remain bare-faced for four months. Concubine Yun is confined to Youyun Palace for one month."
Concubine Yun didn't know what was going on and was punished for no reason. She looked at the emperor in shock.
She didn't do anything!
"Your Majesty?" That expression of injustice and helplessness.
For a woman in her late 40s, it's a bit inappropriate to make this expression.
"Hmph, it was because of your suggestion that the eldest grandson was held by the second eldest daughter-in-law, and the two queens took turns holding him. As a result, the eldest grandson got tinea versicolor. It was all caused by you women using rouge. That was my first grandson." The emperor flicked his sleeves and sat down.
After hearing this, the Second Prince Cao Jinrui and the Second Prince's Consort Lu Qiaoyan immediately stood up and knelt before the Emperor.
"Father, Concubine Xi did not mean to do that. She just wanted me to add to the royal family sooner. Please take back your order." The second prince pleaded for his Concubine Xi.
This matter was so unfair, his concubine just wanted to hug the child, who knew that her nephew would suffer because of women using rouge.
"Humph, the eldest grandson has only just turned one month old, and he has already suffered so much. Go and see that he is covered with rashes. Your concubine was only confined to her feet, so what? She complains about this little suffering? We don't even know if our eldest grandson can recover in a short time." The emperor rebuked coldly.
The Second Prince and his wife didn't dare to say anything and just knelt quietly.
"Bring the dragon." The emperor gave a direct order.
"Your Highness, please." Eunuch Hai immediately carried out the emperor's order.
Two young eunuchs came forward and led Concubine Yun out of the hall.
She didn't dare to say a word of rebuttal.
At the same time, she shook her head at the second prince before leaving the hall.
This shows that the emperor values and dotes on his eldest grandson.
I was wondering if it was because the eldest grandson was born to the eldest prince, or just because he was the first grandson of the royal family.
Wanpin, who was also present at the banquet, was delighted to see the imperial concubine being punished.
She didn't hold any children, and if she wanted to hold anyone, she would only hold her own grandchildren.
The women went out to wash their faces.
This wash is interesting.
Everyone revealed their true face.
As he gets older, his old looks can no longer be concealed. Wrinkles are obvious on his face, his skin becomes yellow and loose, and the traces of time are clearly revealed.
He was middle-aged, with spots on his face that were clearly visible.
When I was young, I had acne, and after it healed, the marks were left and haven't disappeared yet.
In the past, everyone dressed up beautifully when going out, but now everyone is a real person.
When the women washed their faces and returned to the temple, the men were shocked and looked surprised.
The old man thought to himself: My old wife has become so old.
Time is unforgiving. It has been with me from the time I was sixteen or seventeen years old, when I was still young, to when I am old and ugly.
She even gave birth to my children, and dressed me up every day so that I wouldn't look old. She was still worried that I would despise her.
The old men sighed in their hearts, saying that it was not easy for a couple to support each other for so many years.
These men are also old, and their mentality is mature and stable.
The middle-aged man thought: My wife used to have so many freckles on her face, her complexion was so ugly, yellow, and dull, and she always looked clean in front of him. After removing her makeup, it was really a far cry from that.
It’s okay for young women, at most there will be some small marks or spots, but they are young anyway, so it’s not that embarrassing.
The other women were more embarrassed than each other.
They all lowered their heads and dared not face the men beside them.
The emperor, sitting high on the throne, also saw the true faces of his concubines and was filled with emotion.
However, most of the women who could enter the palace to become concubines were naturally beautiful, so it was not that exaggerated.
Then he looked at the ladies below, and after comparing themselves, he felt a little embarrassed.
With just one sentence, he tore the face of so many noble ladies.
The emperor coughed twice.
At this time, Eunuch Hai came in to report that the eldest grandson had stopped coughing. He would be fine after another medicinal bath.
Only then did he feel relieved.
"Okay, from now on, ladies, please wear less rouge when you enter the palace." The emperor tried to save some of the embarrassment and relaxed a little.
You can apply it, but don't apply too much.
The ladies all kept their heads down.
Some faces are distorted.
Because they were the ones who were smeared the most, and they just held the eldest grandson in their arms, so maybe it was their fault.
The emperor also felt embarrassed.
"Men are away from home, and women are at home managing the house. It's also hard work. Men, when you go home, remember to be more considerate of your wives. It's not easy for them to bear children for you, and it's also hard work for them to manage the housework."
The emperor didn't know what to say to ease the situation, so he said something for the woman.
"The emperor says yes." The men responded one by one.
Those who were thinking that the concubine had been married for only a short time and was still fresh and tender, suddenly stiffened and followed suit.
The palace was very lively that day.
At the same time, in a row of houses somewhere in the capital.
The third master, Shangguan Hongzhe, was sitting in the upper seat with a cold and handsome expression.
Next to her sat a veiled woman with gray hair.
"Zhe'er, you are almost fully recovered now. It's time for me to leave. You will have to make your own way in the future.
I am already fifty-eight. How long can I live? It’s time to go back and check.
I have sacrificed my life of comfort and wealth for Canglan, and helped your uncle ascend to the throne. I have done my best for the Zhu family."
This old woman was none other than Aunt Wang, the third old lady in the palace.
