He stretched out his bony palm and teased, "Do you guys really think I'm mad?"
Nanny Yi is Xiao Yu's family member, so she naturally knew that His Majesty was testing her.
She hugged the child tightly in her arms and said cautiously: "How could the Queen be angry with His Majesty?"
Nanny Yi has been serving His Majesty since she was young, and the bond between them and him is much deeper than that of the ordinary servants.
Otherwise, His Majesty would not have sent someone out of the palace to find her to look after the Fifth Prince.
Nanny Yi patted the Fifth Prince on the back and said while coaxing him, "I'm afraid the Queen was frightened because of this."
"She didn't sleep the whole night, and she was afraid that the little prince would die as well, so she sent him to Your Majesty."
Shen Fu told Nanny to say this.
Chen Fu sent the fifth prince to His Majesty because she was frustrated.
This second time, Shen Fu was really scared.
Even Shiso could be attacked silently right under her nose.
Chen Fu didn't dare to think about what would happen if these methods were used on her one day.
Until the murderer is found, the Qianqing Palace is the safest and most dangerous place.
Chen Fu is doing this for Tuan'er's own good, Nanny Yi must know that.
"Your Majesty is only thinking about Tuan'er's good, Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand your Majesty."
Nanny Yi said so much, but all she said was speaking for Shen Fu.
Xiao Yu heard it.
He sent Nanny Yi to Chen Fu, thinking that she would take care of Chen Fu.
But I didn't expect that in such a short period of time, Auntie Yi has become a very beautiful woman. '
Even in front of him, everyone spoke for Shen Fu.
Xiao Yu smiled softly, stretched out his fingers and curled them up, looking at the baby lying in Nanny's arms, and raised his eyebrows: "Tuan'er?"
"This is the nickname that Her Majesty gave to the Fifth Prince." Nanny Yi really loved the Fifth Prince, and she was used to calling him by that name following Zi Su and the others.
I didn’t expect to shout it out in front of His Majesty.
"It's the servant who talks too much."
Nanny Yi was about to perform the ceremony while holding the baby in her arms.
Xiao Yu raised his hand to stop her.
"Madam, don't be alarmed." Xiao Yu lowered his eyes and looked into her arms.
The fifth prince was well-bred, with tender cheeks and small hands and feet as thin as lotus roots.
The watery eyes looked at him eagerly, and he really looked like a glutinous rice dumpling.
"Tuan'er." Xiao Yu pursed his thin lips and repeated it again.
He looked at the child expressionlessly.
The prince had to be named after he was one year old. The nickname Tuan'er was chosen by Shen Fu.
But when did Shen Fu get her name? But I didn't tell him.
Even the word "tuan'er" was something he heard from Nanny Yi.
"This name does look like him."
Nanny Yi was holding Tuan'er and she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.
"Send someone to clean up the side hall." Xiao Yu withdrew his hand, stood up and went to the inner room.
A deep voice came out:
"Tuan'er has been raising a dry Qing palace these two days."
********
When Concubine Shu Guipin came back from the Empress Dowager's palace, she learned that Shen Fu had sent the fifth prince to be the daughter of the Qing Palace.
This was so outrageous that when Concubine Shu came to her senses, her head started buzzing. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and shouted:
"Is she crazy?!"
Shu Guipin stood in the palace, walking around, muttering to herself: "Since ancient times, concubines have always taken care of children. How can the emperor take care of children?"
Not only did Chen Fu become a nurse, she also let His Majesty take care of her personally!
When Concubine Shu Guipin thought of this, she felt a darkness before her eyes.
I felt dizzy and angry and jealous at the same time.
"Why, Your Majesty, dote on her so much?" Concubine Shu gritted her teeth, her teeth almost broken by jealousy.
They waited day after day but didn't even have a child.
Chen Fu is good, not only does she have a prince, but she also doesn't cherish him.
Send the child to His Majesty!
"Why does His Majesty favor her so much!" Shu Guipin shouted angrily.
Fang Jinlan, who was about to enter the door, was frightened by the voice and stopped.
After a long while, he went back into the house and asked, "Sister, what happened? Is it worth getting so angry?"
As Fang Jinlan spoke, she walked over and sat down next to Concubine Shu Guipin.
Shu Guipin glanced at her with great disdain.
Then he raised his hand and rubbed his brows vigorously a few times: "What are you doing here?"
Her tone was full of disdain, and she almost kicked the person out on the spot.
Fang Jinlan showed displeasure on her face. She took a deep breath but managed to smile: "Eldest sister, I asked you to find out about Concubine Zhao's father. Did you find out?"
She had been feeling uneasy since she left, fearing that Shen Fu might make some movement.
But this is the imperial palace, and she doesn't even have anyone to help her. I'm not going to inquire about the news, but I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion, not to mention whether I can get any information.
Only then did Fang Jinlan place her hopes on her elder sister.
It would have been fine if she didn't mention this, but as soon as she mentioned it.
Concubine Shu couldn't help but snort: "The palace did ask around, and it turns out there really is one in the Hehuan Palace."
"What is it?" Fang Jinglan tightened her fingertips and asked subconsciously.
Shu Guipin saw her urgency.
He raised the tea beside him and took a sip: "Why is the concubine looking at the love affairs of Hehuan Palace? You care more about it than the concubine."
Fang Jinlan's tightly clenched palms loosened.
She forced a smile out of embarrassment and lowered her head to hide the expression on her face: "How could that be? I'm just worried about you, elder sister."
Fang Jinlan lied calmly, "If my elder sister still wants to have a place in the palace, Concubine Zhao will be a stumbling block for her."
Shu Guipin sneered: "You'd better be."
She noticed the uneasiness on Fang Jinlan's face.
But she was not interested in knowing what Fang Jinlan was hiding from her.
It's just that her sister is a brave one.
Think you are unique, more special and smarter than others.
But she herself didn't know that all her little thoughts were seen by her.
It's just that I don't want to expose it.
"There really is something going on in Concubine Zhao's palace." Concubine Shu was too lazy to care what Fang Jinlan was hiding from her.
But Dandan told the news that he had heard from the Empress Dowager: "She sent the fifth prince to the Qianqing Palace to be raised by His Majesty."
"What?" Fang Jinlan didn't seem to think about it. She was silent for a while to digest the news before asking, "No more?"
"What else do you want to know?"
Shu Guipin narrowed her eyes and asked her, with a tentative look in her eyes.
Fang Jinlan subconsciously avoided her gaze.
"What are you talking about, elder sister?" Fang Jinlan smiled and avoided her gaze with trembling eyelashes:
"What am I hiding from you?"
As she spoke, she stood up and walked towards the door.
"You'd better be careful." Behind her, Concubine Shu Guipin cast a cold look on her back: "Don't provoke people you shouldn't provoke."
"If you offend Concubine Zhao, I won't be able to protect you."
Fang Jinlan stood there with her body slightly stiff. After a moment, she took a deep breath and walked out as if nothing had happened.
But just as she walked out of the palace gate, Fang Jinlan stopped.
Her legs felt a little weak, and she reached out to hold on to the pillar beside her to keep her balance.
She touched her earlobe with trembling hands, but the pearl earring that should have been worn under her right ear was gone.
Fang Jinlan couldn't help rubbing her brows because of the headache.
He lowered his eyes and murmured in a deep voice: "Where did it fall?"
