Chapter 297 Vomiting Blood
Maybe it's because the princess is easy to talk to, the third room is on the side of Concubine Jiang and the second wife, and the princess doesn't care. But if it's the other way around, the second and fourth rooms will join forces with Concubine Jiang to squeeze out the third room.
It is better to offend a gentleman than to offend a villain.
Chen Tang walked towards the Peony Courtyard with a brisk pace, in stark contrast to Xie Yan and the others who were almost unable to hold on. Not only had she lost face, she also had to be punished. Thinking of the suffering she had endured in the past three days, Xie Yan gritted her teeth.
The words came out from behind her teeth, "Mom, I can't swallow this!"
Who can swallow it?
Xie Wei said, "We have to make her pay back every bit of the pain we've suffered!"
The second wife raised her lips in a cold arc, "This is not difficult to do."
They are like newborn calves that are not afraid of tigers. They dare to offend so many of them at once. If they don't get their revenge, there will be no place for them to stay in the Prince of Jingyang's Palace.
Chen Tang went to the princess and paid his respects to her. The princess smiled and said, "You came just in time. Follow me to the Ning Palace to pay my respects to the old princess Ning."
Shen Tang nodded obediently.
The old Princess Ning is kind and amiable. Her elder brother and sister-in-law are also in the Ning Palace. She is very happy to go there.
Chen Tang asked Yin Xing to go back and tell Xie Guimo, and then wait for her at the gate. When the maid came in to report that the carriage was ready, Chen Tang went out with the princess.
Sitting in the carriage, the princess said to Shen Tang, "You don't need to argue with them for me in the future. I'm used to hearing those words. I can't help Concubine Ye and Prince Qi."
The Duke Zhenguo's Mansion only has Madam An to support it, and she cannot even adopt a child to inherit the family business. The prince does not allow her to interfere in the affairs of the court. As early as when Concubine Ye asked her to ask the prince for help, the prince had sternly refused her. The prince's words are his, and saying more will only annoy him and make things worse.
Xie Guimo has had his own ideas since he was young, and he doesn't like being forced to repay a favor. Besides, in the eyes of the princess, Xie Guimo can't help the King of Qi in any way, so she won't look for Xie Guimo.
Those words were harsh, but they were just a few sentences repeated over and over again. The princess knew that Chen Tang felt sorry for her, but the old lady had a special status, and there was no need to contradict her for a few words.
Chen Tang felt sorry for the princess, and the princess also thought of Shen Tang in everything. Deep down, Chen Tang disagreed with the princess's tolerance, but she didn't say anything. The old lady was not the prince's biological mother. She felt the relief of sending the disgusting people away from under the same roof. She and Xie Guimo would find an opportunity to separate those people from the palace.
While the old prince is alive, the old lady cannot divide the property, but the second and fourth wives can. Once they are separated from the mansion, even if they are only separated by a street, the interactions will be much less.
The carriage rolled forward and soon stopped in front of the gate of Prince Ning's Mansion.
Seeing that it was the carriage from Prince Jingyang's Palace, the gatekeeper at Prince Ning's Palace came down attentively to help move the footstool.
The Ning Palace used to be deserted. Only Princess Duan and Princess Jingyang often came to chat with old Princess Ning to relieve her boredom. The servants of the Ning Palace looked forward to the princess's frequent visits. Chen Tang was the biological sister of the Ning Palace's Crown Prince, and the servants of the Ning Palace treated Shen Tang as their master.
After entering Prince Ning's Mansion and taking a few steps, she saw Princess Roujia coming towards her from afar and bowing to greet the princess.
After entering the house, I saw the old Princess Ning sitting on the Luohan couch. The Princess smiled and said, "It hasn't been long since we last saw each other. The old Princess looks much better, as if she has become ten years younger."
This is not flattery. Princess Ning's complexion has visibly improved.
Old Princess Ning touched her face. The nanny standing beside her smiled and said, "With the Crown Prince and Princess Roujia in the mansion, the old princess is in a better mood every day. A good mood is better than the best tonic in the world."
The princess smiled and said, "When a little prince is added to the mansion, it will be even more lively."
Princess Ning smiled and said, "Thank you for your good words. The old prince and I have been looking forward to this day."
Princess Roujia's face turned red.
God knows how hard Xiao Huan has worked to help Prince Ning and Princess Ning achieve their wish as soon as possible. What she fears most now is the dark.
The princess accompanied old Princess Ning to talk, and Princess Roujia accompanied Chen Tang to the garden to appreciate the flowers. The aunt and sister-in-law had endless things to talk about.
The two of them chatted for a long time and felt a little tired, so they went into the pavilion to rest. Just as they were about to sit down, before their buttocks touched the stone bench, a maid ran over and said anxiously, "Prince Jingyang's wife, the Jingyang Palace sent someone to deliver a message saying that the old lady in the palace vomited blood and fainted..."
Shen Tang was startled.
Why did the old lady suddenly vomit blood and faint?
This didn't happen in the previous life. Moreover, the Eighth Young Master died right in front of her, and the old lady was so heartbroken that she didn't even faint. How could something like this happen today...
Something happened to the old lady, so the princess must rush back. Since Chen Tang and the princess came together, they naturally have to go back together.
Chen Tang stood up and walked forward. He saw the princess hurried out from a distance. Chen Tang comforted her, "Mother, don't worry..."
The princess was worried, but she was more worried about the Jingyang Palace.
Things have been happening one after another in the Prince Jingyang's Mansion recently. Although it is not the eldest branch that is unlucky, the fortunes of the entire mansion are connected.
Princess Roujia saw the princess and Shen Tang off to the gate and watched them leave in a carriage.
After returning to the Jingyang Palace, the princess got off the carriage, entered the palace, and went straight to Wutong Courtyard.
Entering the inner room, the princess saw Concubine Jiang and the second wife were all there, and asked, "How is the old lady?"
The third wife replied, "The imperial physician just arrived and is still checking the old lady's pulse..."
They all rushed back from Prince Ning's Mansion, why did the imperial physician just arrive?
As soon as the old lady vomited blood and fainted, someone was quickly sent to Prince Ning's Mansion to report to the princess. Although the princess should have been informed, the princess was not an imperial physician, so there was no need to rush to call her back. She was not coming back to listen to his last words.
Chen Tang followed behind the princess and walked forward, and saw the old lady lying on the bed, her face pale, as if she had a serious illness and would not live long.
Although the illness was as severe as a mountain falling on her, the old lady was in good health in her previous life, so she wouldn't have been so sick just by being angry with her a few times.
The imperial physician felt the pulse for a long time. When the imperial physician let go, the second wife asked, "How is it?"
The doctor shook his head and said, "The old lady's illness is strange. I can't find the cause for the time being."
The second wife was anxious, "If we can't find the cause of the disease, what should we do, old lady?"
If we can’t find the cause of the disease, we can’t prescribe the right medicine. How can the disease be cured without taking medicine?
The imperial physician also wanted to cure the old lady's illness, but he was really unable to do anything. He didn't even prescribe any medicine, but just asked for someone else to help.
The fourth wife's eyes were red, "How come he suddenly fell ill? He was fine before we were punished to go to the Buddhist temple."
The second wife said, "If we hadn't been punished, we might have discovered that the old lady was ill earlier and treated her in time, and she wouldn't have been so sick."
When the Second Madam said this, she glanced at Chen Tang unkindly, as if Chen Tang was half responsible for the old lady's illness.
