Project 1085, forget about being my apprentice

Su Wenqing was relieved to see that the Ninth Prince was still calm and composed, and acted steadily. He was really afraid that the Ninth Prince would lose his composure because of the rumors and make the decision to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of his own.

Su Wenqing saw that the Ninth Prince had a serious expression on his face, so after thinking about it, he spoke up and advised, "Jiuqing, I know that the recent rumors bother you, but don't take it too seriously. Qingchen is not such a petty person, she won't care about these things. Besides, this is not your fault. The more these people scold Feng Qingchen now, the more praise you will receive when your identities are revealed in the future."

Su Wenqing didn't think the matter was serious at all. It was just a rumor. Feng Qingchen was able to survive the pressure of losing her virginity before marriage, so of course she could survive now. Feng Qingchen was stronger than the average woman and would never be defeated easily.

"Really?" The Ninth Prince glanced at Su Wenqing and turned his head away indifferently.

Those who have never been hurt by rumors will never understand the lethality of rumors. Rumors can hurt people more than a sharp knife. A sharp knife can only cause physical pain, but rumors can cause heartache...

Feng Qingchen certainly wouldn't commit suicide because of this, but she would be hurt and would have concerns, and this was not what the Ninth Prince wanted.

After talking with Su Wenqing, it was already midnight. Before returning to the palace, the Ninth Prince made a detour to the Feng Mansion. He learned that Feng Qingchen was still in the palace and had not returned. The Ninth Prince wanted to leave a note for Feng Qingchen, but gave up after thinking about it.

Some things are better explained in person, but I didn't expect that I would never find the right opportunity again...

The little prince's condition recurred and he began to vomit milk again the next morning. His body also had some redness and swelling. Feng Qingchen had to continue staying in Zhaoyan Palace.

Feng Qingchen was not good at treating babies, and she didn't dare to use heavy medicine. She could only slowly recuperate the little prince. In this way, Feng Qingchen stayed in Zhaoyan Palace for three days before the little prince's illness stabilized.

Before leaving, Feng Qingchen left some common baby medicines to Imperial Concubine Xie. After all, it was not convenient for her to enter the palace often. The current Imperial Concubine Xie was no longer the Imperial Concubine who could call the shots in the harem. She had fallen out of favor, and no one had the right to summon her into the palace at will.

During the few days in Zhaoyan Palace, Feng Qingchen also realized that Imperial Noble Concubine Xie had completely fallen out of favor, the Emperor didn't care about her, and the Xie family also planned to stand up for her because the Xie family had sent another younger and more beautiful woman into the palace.

Looking at the medicine in her hand, Imperial Noble Consort Xie revealed a very faint smile: "At this time, only Qingchen will help me."

In the harem, the emperor's favor is the most important thing. Unless you are the queen and in charge of the harem, you cannot lose the emperor's favor, even if you are a royal concubine.

"Qingchen is a doctor, just doing what a doctor should do." Feng Qingchen also sighed.

She and Imperial Noble Consort Xie were just using each other. Imperial Noble Consort Xie needed a doctor she could trust, and she needed someone to help her contain the Queen, so the two of them worked together, and now...

Imperial Noble Concubine Xie is no longer useful, and Feng Qingchen shouldn't care about her anymore. But she is just an ordinary person after all, and they will develop feelings for each other after getting along for a long time. Besides, she and Imperial Noble Concubine Xie have a good cooperation, and she can't do the kind of thing that would just use someone and then abandon her.

"There are so many doctors in the Imperial Hospital, but I haven't seen any like you." Thinking of what Feng Qingchen had done since she met him, Imperial Noble Consort Xie was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Now that you mention it, it's true. You promised to help me keep the baby, and you have been doing this wholeheartedly for the past year. Qingchen, you are a good doctor."

"Your Majesty, you are too kind. Everything Qingchen did was just wishful thinking." It is good to do things according to one's conscience. This way, when it is late at night and everyone is asleep, she will not be unable to bear the condemnation of her conscience and be awakened by nightmares.

"What an idealist. Qingchen, you know, I have always hoped that you could make peace with the Xie family. I ask you again, are you willing? As long as you are willing to nod and take a step back, I will definitely convince the Xie family to agree to your terms."

Although the Xie family gave up on her, Imperial Noble Concubine Xie still wanted to do something for the family. After all, her ability to climb to her current position was inseparable from the support of the Xie family. Accomplishing this would be a way of repaying the Xie family for their upbringing and cultivation of her.

Imperial Concubine Xie had mentioned this matter before, but the conditions proposed by Feng Qingchen were too harsh. She wanted the head of the Xie family to kneel down and apologize, which the Xie family would never agree to. Similarly, Feng Qingchen would not agree to back down.

"Qingchen appreciates your majesty's kindness. Although the Xie family and I are not at war to the death, I have always kept the humiliation I suffered that day in my heart and dare not forget it. But don't worry, your majesty, Qingchen is not a violent person. I was also at fault for what happened that day. As long as the Xie family does not offend me, I will not do anything to them. Similarly, if the Xie family offends me, I will definitely repay them double. As for the Xie family, I, Feng Qingchen, will never enter their home in this life." Feng Qingchen is not a person who repays evil with kindness. She can't forget the Xie family's act of adding insult to injury that day.

Besides, the Xie family is too closely tied to the emperor and is destined to be her enemy. There is no need for her to pretend to reconcile with the emperor.

"Alas..." Imperial Concubine Xie sighed in disappointment: "Since you don't want to, just pretend I never mentioned it. But... Qingchen, you should have heard the recent rumors in the imperial city. You need the help of the aristocratic family at this time."

Imperial Noble Concubine Xie advised Feng Qingchen to reconcile with the Xie family not only for the sake of the Xie family, but also for Feng Qingchen's sake.

At this time, if the Xie family is willing to unite with the Wang, Wen and other aristocratic families to speak for Feng Qingchen, then the rumors in the imperial city will be dispelled.

Most of the wealthy and powerful people rely on the emperor for their livelihood, and they dare not go against the emperor's wishes. Although the poor families have shown signs of rising, they are still too weak. At this time, the force that Feng Qingchen can win over is the aristocratic families.

"Thank you for your concern, Madam. I have my own way to resolve the rumors." Feng Qingchen thanked her with a smile, and then added, "Madam, I still say the same thing. The friendship between Qingchen and Madam has nothing to do with the Xie family."

In other words, no matter whether Feng Qingchen will become enemies with the Xie family in the future, she will not anger Imperial Concubine Xie because of it, and now they are only talking about friendship, not cooperation.

"I understand." Even though she knew it in her heart, Noble Concubine Xie was still very happy because Feng Qingchen said it clearly.

Feng Qingchen said that there was a way to solve the rumor problem. Of course, there was a real way. She already had experience in dealing with rumors.

After leaving the palace, Feng Qingchen did not return home, but went outside the city to find Sun Sixing. She wanted to know Sun Sixing's attitude towards Chu Changhua.

From Chu Changhua's tone, Feng Qingchen could tell that she cared a lot about Sun Sixing. Maybe she herself didn't even know it, but Feng Qingchen could see it.

Feng Qingchen didn't care about Chu Changhua's attitude. What she cared about was Sun Sixing. Sun Sixing had no experience in getting along with women, and she was afraid that Sun Sixing really fell in love with Chu Changhua.

Feng Qingchen didn't want to get into trouble with Chu Changhua, but if Sun Sixing really liked Chu Changhua, then she would respect Sixing's opinion.

Feng Qingchen never wants to cause trouble, but she is not afraid of trouble!
