Chapter 170 Doubt
Eunuch Chang carefully observed the Crown Prince's expression.
He found that the prince's expression did not change much, and it seemed that he did not take the matter to heart.
Eunuch Chang asked cautiously, "Concubine Bai has brought many concubines with her. They are waiting in the bedroom. Would you like to choose one or two of them to come in and serve?"
Luo Qinghan: "No need."
Eunuch Chang said no more. It seemed that in the heart of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the most beloved was still Xiao Liangdi, and no one else could replace her.
He wanted to feed the prince medicine.
Luo Qinghan took the medicine bowl directly, frowned, and drank the whole bowl in one breath.
Eunuch Chang quickly handed over a plate of candied fruit.
"Your Highness, please have something sweet to moisten your mouth."
Luo Qinghan turned his head away, not wanting to eat.
Eunuch Chang could only take the candied fruit away.
Seeing the prince drink the medicine, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
Luo Qinghan closed his eyes, a sleepy look on his face.
An old doctor said, "This medicine helps one sleep. After taking it, one will indeed feel sleepy. Your Highness is weak now and needs a good rest. We should not disturb your Highness's rest."
Everyone said goodbye and left.
Eunuch Chang and Huixiang were the last two people to leave the bedroom.
As soon as they came out, the concubines immediately stood up and looked at them eagerly.
Concubine Bai asked softly, "How is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Can we go in to visit His Royal Highness?"
Eunuch Chang said politely, "His Royal Highness has just finished taking medicine and has fallen asleep. Your Majesty, please go back first and come back later."
All the concubines were very disappointed.
They waited for a long time, but in the end they didn't even see the prince, so the trip was in vain.
Concubine Bai said, "The Crown Prince is ill, and he should be taken care of by someone. Why don't you let me stay and take good care of him?"
Eunuch Chang smiled and said, "When His Royal Highness wakes up, I will tell him about your kindness. Now please go back first."
There was no choice but for all the concubines to leave the Linde Hall reluctantly.
In the imperial study.
The emperor was reviewing memorials. When he heard that Gan Fu had returned, he stopped what he was doing, looked up and asked.
"How's the prince doing?"
Gan Fu answered truthfully, "I have personally examined him. His Royal Highness is indeed seriously ill. The imperial doctors said that he was caught in a cold and the wind and cold entered his body. This is the prescription the imperial doctors gave him. I have copied it down."
He handed over a prescription.
The emperor glanced at the names on the prescription and found that they were indeed all medicinal herbs for treating colds.
"Did he drink the medicine?"
Gan Fu: "I saw with my own eyes that His Royal Highness drank all the medicine."
The emperor's doubts gradually dissipated.
It seems that the prince is really sick.
"Go to the storehouse and pick out some tonics for the prince."
Gan Fu responded respectfully, "Yes."
…
Inside the Pepper Room.
Queen Qin was leaning on the couch with her eyes closed.
Pearl knelt on the ground and gently massaged the queen's legs.
A faint fragrance emanates from the incense burner next to it.
A young eunuch walked in with his head bowed and bowed respectfully: "Your servant Shi Ying greets the Empress."
Queen Qin raised her eyelids, glanced at him with cold eyes, and asked calmly, "How is it?"
Shi Ying: "Reporting to the queen, I have already gone to the East Palace to check, and the Crown Prince is indeed ill. Imperial Physician Zhao, Imperial Physician Zhang, and Imperial Physician Duan all said that the Crown Prince had caught a cold. They prescribed medicine for the Crown Prince, and he fell asleep after drinking it."
