Su Lan thought that the princess couldn't be left alone, and wanted to persuade her further, but seeing the princess's expression, she thought that the princess might need some peace and quiet, so she agreed and withdrew.
As Su Lan reached the door, she heard the princess say, "Close the door. I'm not seeing anyone."
Just as I closed the door, I heard the princess crying inside. It wasn't loud, just soft sobbing and whimpering, sounding like a mother animal who had lost her cubs.
It is heartbreaking.
The sound continued for more than half an hour, and the servants outside the door heard it and their eyes reddened. Although Korkun was the father, he was still a man and it was not appropriate for him to stay here, so he asked his eldest and second daughters-in-law to stay here.
Hearing the sounds from inside the room, the two sisters-in-law couldn't help but turn around and secretly wipe away their tears.
With a creak, He Zhuo opened the door. The group of people at the door were stunned for a moment, but Granny and Su Mei reacted quickly and stepped forward to help him up.
"Your Highness, you mustn't be exposed to the wind right now. Let's go inside quickly."
"The medicine is still warm there."
"Yes, yes, Your Highness, you should have the imperial physician examine you first."
...
He Zhuo did not refuse and went back to his room, following everyone's wishes.
Physician Liu was brought by He Zhuo to treat his mother; it's ironic that he's now using him himself.
"Madam, you have just suffered a miscarriage. It is not advisable for you to move around or be exposed to drafts now, or you may develop health problems later."
"Also, what do you think of this medicine?"
He Zhuo glanced at the medicine handed over by the imperial physician and silently drank it down in one gulp.
He Zhuoyue's silence only made him more pitiful. Coupled with his pale face and bloodless lips, it was heartbreaking.
"Yes, Madam, it's getting late. Why don't you rest here? It's too late to move around now."
"Yes, Madam, listen to your sister-in-law. We women are most vulnerable at this time. If we don't take care of ourselves, we will suffer from health problems for the rest of our lives. Right now, nothing else matters. The most important thing is your health!"
"Don't worry about anything else. Your mother is confused, but your father and we are not. We can't let Fourth Aunt do whatever she wants."
The eldest sister-in-law's words can be considered a promise that they will handle this matter well. Fourth sister and mother's wishful thinking has backfired. On the other hand, as the mistress of the mansion, the eldest sister-in-law also hopes that Prince Zhi and his wife will not hate the Irgen Gioro mansion because of this.
It's important to know that Yinzhi's title of Prince Zhi, "Zhi," was not given lightly.
The eldest sister-in-law was also uneasy, wondering if this matter would anger him. She couldn't help but resent her fourth aunt, who was her younger sister-in-law. She could tolerate minor squabbles in the past, but this time she had caused such a big trouble.
She also became dissatisfied with her mother-in-law, who had always been biased towards her.
...
"It's alright, it's not curfew yet. Have the sedan chair stop in this courtyard, then we can go." He Zhuo was already dressed and ready to leave, so there was no reason for him to take off his clothes and leave them behind.
Ignoring the pleas and advice of his elder and second sisters-in-law, He Zhuo got into the sedan chair and left.
As soon as I stepped out of the courtyard, I ran into my father and older brother in the front yard.
The men all looked ashamed. As their mother grew older, she favored their fourth sister. Because their fourth sister had a hard time and would often go back to her parents' home, they, as her father and brothers, couldn't say anything.
This time, Mother followed Fourth Sister's nonsense and forced Fifth Sister (the First Princess Consort) to send Fourth Sister's daughter to the room of Prince Hongyu's nephew, causing the First Princess Consort to vomit blood and miscarry at home.
What a terrible thing to do!
