Chapter 195 Rash
The queen was ashamed. She had just regained power after being suppressed for a long time, so naturally she wanted to hold on to it tightly.
Holding on to power and children, these made her feel at ease compared to the illusory and invisible love.
The Queen wanted to feel at ease, but Concubine Li was not.
Concubine Li had a thorn in her heart. She was raising the Fourth Prince safely, but she was always thinking about the day when she almost lost her life and the fact that the Fourth Prince was still under the name of the Queen.
Especially after Xuanyuan Ling's imperial edict, she really regretted it in her heart. For the future of the child, she was close to the queen, but she almost had the mother and the child separated. Now the emperor's imperial edict clearly told her that if the child was not given to the queen, he would be the first prince raised by the emperor.
That's much better than the current situation.
Now that the Emperor has given the power to manage the six palaces to the Queen, she is even more frightened, not to mention that the Queen has summoned her.
While Concubine Li was in prison, there was someone whose situation was somewhat similar to hers, and that person was Good Man Sun.
Sun Liangren fell ill after he was released from house arrest. There was no one to take care of him during his illness and he almost died. He managed to survive with only one thought in his mind.
"After all, I am still the biological mother of the Third Prince. Even if the Third Prince is being raised by Concubine Chun, I am still the biological mother of the Third Prince. Can't I see him once?"
Sun Liangren's only hope now lies in her child. Without this child, she is really afraid that her life will be the same. She has been favored and served as a concubine, and now that she has fallen from the peak, the days are even more difficult to endure.
She was terrified just thinking about having to live like this in the future. She definitely didn't want to live like this in the future.
Meng Yi thought about his miserable life. If he had no choice, he would not want to live like this.
There is something that Sun Liangren said is right, after all, she is the biological mother of the Third Prince, right?
"It is said that an adoptive mother is not as good as a biological mother. After all, I am still the biological mother of the Third Prince. I feel that if Concubine Chun treats the Third Prince badly, then when the time comes, the Emperor may ask for mercy. Who knows, the Emperor might return the Third Prince to me?"
These words naturally touched Sun Liangren's heart. After all, a foster mother is not as good as a biological mother. The Third Prince came out of her belly. How could Concubine Chun be so devoted and caring?
When she gets the third prince back, it will naturally be impossible for him to be just a concubine.
"Find out secretly where the Third Prince is usually taken."
Meng Yi knew that Sun Liangren had made up his mind and was going to give it a try.
Over the next few days, Meng Yi inquired around for news about Concubine Chun, but the information he got left him at a loss as to where to start.
Everyone in Chaolu Palace knew that Concubine Chun doted on the Third Prince. Normally, the Third Prince did not like to stay in Chaolu Palace all the time, so he would be taken out for walks. It can be said that Concubine Chun's kindness to the Third Prince was obvious to all.
Since the adoptive mother is so devoted, the biological mother naturally seems dispensable.
Sun Liangren hoped that Concubine Chun would treat the Third Prince badly, so her idea of getting the Third Prince back would naturally not come true.
When Meng Yi brought this news back to Sun Liangren, Sun Liangren couldn't believe it: "I don't believe that Concubine Chun can be so kind to a child that is not her own."
Meng Yi has been following secretly for several days. It seems that Concubine Chun treats the Third Prince well, but it cannot be that their situation will not improve at all just because Concubine Chun treats the Third Prince well.
Meng Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "I have an idea, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."
Generally speaking, people who say this will eventually say it, and Meng Yi naturally said this as well.
Concubine Chun took the Third Prince to eat, sleep, and walks as usual. The Third Prince could now walk unsteadily, but his steps were unsteady. The servants in the palace did not dare to let the child bump into anything, so the Third Prince was often carried by others.
Now the third prince can speak some simple words every day and call his mother.
When Concubine Chun heard the Third Prince call her mother for the first time, she was still excited for a long time even though he had blurry teeth and couldn't speak clearly. That day, all the servants in the Chaolu Palace were rewarded.
Compared to the deserted Chaolu Palace in the past, Concubine Chun became much more cheerful after the arrival of the Third Prince, and there was a lot more laughter and joy in Chaolu Palace.
Today, Concubine Chun was no exception. She brought the Third Prince out to see the scenery. When they returned, it was time for the Third Prince to take a nap.
Concubine Chun was tired after taking the child out for a walk, so she took a nap. As soon as she woke up, she heard the servants report that the third prince had a rash on his body and was crying.
Concubine Chun was startled and quickly got up to check on the Third Prince. She saw that his originally fair and tender body was covered with red rashes, which were distributed on his neck, hands, feet, and even on his chest. He looked particularly pitiful.
"Have you called the imperial physician?" Concubine Chun was not in a panic, but she was worried when she saw the child crying.
“It has been passed on.”
Soon the imperial physician arrived and after a quick inspection, he found out, "The Third Prince has urticaria. Where did he go or what did he use today?"
Urticaria is not a serious problem. It is just necessary to find out the cause of the skin irritation, otherwise it will recur frequently. Taking medicine once is fine, but the third prince is still young, and taking medicine for a long time is obviously not good for his health.
Concubine Chun was very careful and kept backups of everything the Third Prince ate. That is, there were two copies of the food the Third Prince ate at the beginning, and after confirming that it was correct, one copy was kept as a sample, in case the food he ate was not suitable, so the imperial physician could be asked to check.
So she immediately asked someone to bring everything the Third Prince had eaten today to the imperial physician for examination.
Concubine Chun is so meticulous that if she eats something for the first time that she has never eaten before, she will naturally be very careful. There is nothing new added to the food today. They are all things that the Third Prince had eaten before without any reaction, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with the food.
The imperial physician thought, "Perhaps it was the catkins and pollen that stained his skin. Although the Third Prince is young, he sweated after playing outside and then got in contact with these things, or attracted some flying insects, so he would also develop a rash. Just be careful in the future."
"When will the Third Prince's rash go away?"
The imperial physician still felt that this was no big deal: "After taking the medicine, the symptoms will subside in an hour or two."
Concubine Chun asked someone to boil medicine. After the third prince took the medicine, the rash on his body really subsided. Only then did she feel relieved.
However, the matter was still reported to Xuanyuan Ling, and of course the situation was explained, informing him that the rash on the third prince's body had healed. In fact, if it was the biological mother, she would not have to be so cautious and report it even though the child was fine. But because she was an adoptive mother, she had to be more careful about such matters, otherwise it would be easy for others to find fault with her.
After this incident, Concubine Chun became more particular about the Third Prince's food, and even tried to avoid places with lush flowers and plants and flying insects when going out. However, despite being so careful, three days later, the Third Prince broke out in a rash again.
