Chapter 383 Bluffing
So, the maids just fed him porridge and medicine, and told him to sleep again.
As for defecation and urination, there are maids to serve them, so there is no need to worry about solving them.
The next morning, Qi Yixiu directly issued an order to demote Meng, who had been sent out of the palace yesterday, to a commoner. Naturally, she would not have the opportunity to be buried in the concubine's tomb, and the Meng family was not even allowed to bury her.
The Meng family was also exiled because of Meng's "plot to murder the prince".
The Meng family had been living well, but overnight, their property was ransacked.
None of the people who served Meng had a good end. The eunuchs were beaten half to death and sent to do hard labor.
The palace maids were also sent to work in places where they would never be able to make a name for themselves.
Many of the people who served the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince also suffered.
As for the group in Ruiqing Palace, some were beaten to death, some were sent to exile. Anyway, many of them would never be able to make a name for themselves again.
The bloody storm in the palace frightened many people, but at the same time, it also gave many people opportunities.
The eighth prince and the ninth prince were still living with their respective mothers. In Ruiqing Palace, the house where Meng died had been completely renovated.
On the third day, Shen Chuliu sent the child back.
Those who should read should start reading as usual.
This matter seemed to have passed normally.
Qi Yixiu was naturally also investigating the cause, but in fact, many people in the palace suspected that the sudden miscarriage and almost death of Meng that year was related to Wen Chongrong.
She had committed evil deeds herself, and now the revenge had come upon her own children.
And there is something else that outsiders don’t know.
Wen Chongrong watched the wet nurse taking care of the Eighth Prince. The child, who was originally very articulate, had not uttered a single word in three days.
It would be fine if he didn't say anything, maybe he was just scared.
But his reactions were very slow. On the third day, the imperial physician said that he was able to move a little, at least to sit up.
Feed him food, give him medicine, he accepts everything.
Originally, this child, like all other children, refused to take medicine.
Moreover, it would take him a long time to react when someone called him, and his eyes would be dull when he looked at people.
In fact, everyone had seen it, but no one dared to say it, not even Wen Chongrong himself.
How could she say that the child might have become stupid after being injured? She could only hint to the imperial physician, but the imperial physician also knew the answer.
It’s just something in my mind, who can say for sure?
It was a blessing that he survived the disaster, and they could not guarantee whether the Eighth Prince could recover.
We can only try our best to save the child's life first. You know, the child's life is not completely safe now.
After mutual hints, Wen Chongrong also understood that she could only hope that the child would get better over time.
But whether it will get better or not, we can only wait.
The other protagonist in this matter, the Ninth Prince, originally thought that it would not be a problem.
Even Empress Dowager Li and Zhen Chongyi thought it was not a big deal.
It's just a scare, it will be fine after a while.
He got better for a while and was as lively and cute as before.
But after just a few days, he was back to having nightmares every night.
He hasn't even celebrated his birthday yet. He is half a year younger than the Eighth Prince and more fragile.
I had nightmares at night and felt confused due to fever in the morning, and this went on for more than ten days.
The imperial physician did not dare to prescribe strong medicine and only said that the patient needed conditioning.
At this moment, Doctor Zhao was really grateful to Shen Chuliu.
Because of Concubine Jing Zhaoyi's illness, he had to come to Cuiyunxuan every day, but he didn't go to the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince's place.
Shen Chuliu also had some nightmares at night, palpitations, and a low fever.
But she also detained Imperial Physician Zhao on purpose. The Imperial Medical Bureau is now in a state of panic.
All the imperial doctors had been to the Eighth and Ninth Princes, and some had been scolded by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager...
Shen Chuliu took the opportunity to ask for leave, and not only her, but also Concubine Qian Shu and Concubine Yi Chongyuan took leave.
They all arrived early that day and fell ill.
So Shen Chuliu helped Doctor Zhao by exaggerating the severity of her illness.
Doctor Zhao was extremely grateful. He understood in his heart that although Concubine Zhaoyi was not seriously injured, he was not idle either. He simply decided to treat Shen Chuliu's body.
As a woman, there are always times in the year when her energy and blood are not strong enough.
Although summer is not suitable for nourishing the body, it is okay if you don’t go out.
After ten days or so, Shen Chuliu finally asked, "What did the Imperial Medical Bureau say? Is the Eighth Prince's injury still not healed?"
Doctor Zhao is no longer the same Doctor Zhao as before. He believes that Concubine Jing has never done anything bad, so he does not hide this from her.
"I'm not entirely sure. Those who serve the Eighth Prince dare not say anything. However, judging from the pulse diagnosis and their appearance, the Eighth Prince's injury is easy to explain. It's just that the injury is to the brain, so I'm afraid there will be other effects."
Shen Chuliu nodded. It was really unfortunate to have such a young child.
She was not an expert in medicine, but she knew how many problems brain damage could cause, and it could cause problems all over the body.
She didn't ask what it was.
"Why does the Ninth Prince have such severe relapses?" Shen Chuliu was quite curious about this.
"Oh, this is normal. The Ninth Prince is young, and he was frightened. He has nightmares a lot now, and he is weak and sweating. He will feel better after a rest. It's just that..." Doctor Zhao said in a low voice: "It's just that I think it's because Empress Dowager Li and Empress Zhen Chongyi are too worried. It's because they are disturbed every night and can't sleep well. Generally speaking, if you have a nightmare, just pat him up and go back to sleep."
Nowadays, if a child has a nightmare, they will call the imperial physician in a panic, which will only make the child more uneasy.
Shen Chuliu nodded: "It's good that everything is fine."
As for what happened to the Eighth Prince, she didn't ask.
Doctor Zhao also admired her in his heart. To be honest, Concubine Jing Zhaoyi was about the same age as his eldest daughter, only one or two years older, but her self-control was truly extraordinary.
Otherwise, despite all the ups and downs in this palace over the years, this lady has never been at a disadvantage.
And the medicine that this lady wears all year round...
Imperial Doctor Zhao would prescribe medicine for the servants who served closely in Cuiyunxuan every quarter.
Others only thought that it was for health reasons, but only Doctor Zhao knew that it was to prevent the servants from being hurt by the things worn by their masters, which would make it difficult for them to have children in the future.
Everyone in Cuiyunxuan is blessed to follow such a master who is open-minded, far-sighted and able to stay calm.
When Qi Yixiu finally came, Shen Chuliu had been ill for half a month.
It has been half a month since the accident.
She was indeed not in good spirits, so she really looked like she was sick.
"My beloved, are you not feeling better yet?" Qi Yixiu saw that she had lost weight.
"Actually, I'm much better. I was just being lazy. I should go pay my respects to the Queen tomorrow." Shen Chuliu said.
The main reason is that it is a bitter summer and my appetite is average, so it doesn't look very good. Anyway, it can still fool people.
