Chapter 196 Inevitability
Concubine Chun has become more cautious since the last time the Third Prince caught the measles. This is the second time. She is not stupid enough to have been able to stay safe in the palace until now. She also feels that there is something wrong.
But the food had been carefully selected, and the people who delivered the food on the road were all those who had always served her and were very loyal. If she didn't even have a few loyal people around her, she wouldn't be so safe in the palace.
Concubine Chun checked and found that the Third Prince did not have any other symptoms, so she had to give up.
There is no other way except to be more cautious.
It’s always distressing when children are sick. It’s okay if the symptoms go away after taking medicine once, but if it happens several times, the children don’t like to drink the bitter medicine and struggle when taking it. It’s really unbearable to see their little appearance.
Concubine Chun felt heartbroken when seeing this, but there was nothing she could do.
Seeing the Third Prince in distress, she did not feel annoyed, but just felt a headache in her heart, and couldn't help but think of some bad scenes.
At that time, her eldest princess was also sick. At first, she just coughed twice, but the cough did not go away for a long time. The little child developed a high fever after the cough and died just like that.
The symptoms the Third Prince was experiencing after taking the medicine reminded her of the eldest princess back then, and she felt heartbroken.
But I still have to report to the Emperor.
Xuanyuan Ling originally did not take the Third Prince's little problem seriously. Concubine Chun reported it in detail and he could see that she really loved the child. But since it happened three or four times in the past six or seven days, something was wrong.
Xuanyuan Ling had taken a look at it once before and thought it was nothing. Today, Concubine Chun reported it again, so he decided to go and take a look.
After entering the harem and walking near Chaolu Palace, I suddenly saw a person looking around in the corner.
Xuanyuan Ling was just thinking that the Third Prince's illness was strange, but someone happened to be sneaking around Chaolu Palace?
He immediately ordered someone to arrest him, but when the man was brought closer, he realized that it was Sun Liangren.
When Sun Liangren saw Xuanyuan Ling, he was so terrified that he knelt on the ground and dared not speak.
Xuanyuan Ling's impression of Sun Liangren was extremely bad. He hadn't seen her for more than a year, and now he still felt disgusted when he saw her: "What are you doing here?"
Sun Liangren then kowtowed bitterly and said to Xuanyuan Ling: "I heard that the Third Prince has been ill recently, but I know that the Third Prince is now being taken care of by Concubine Chun, so I dare not enter the Chaolu Palace, so I can only watch here. I hope to see the Third Prince. After all, I am the Third Prince's biological mother."
Xuanyuan Ling didn't believe it at first.
It’s all because Sun Liangren has a criminal record. He previously framed Concubine Yu for injuring the Third Prince’s face. Although Jinyun ended up committing suicide by hitting her head against the wall, he has no evidence to prove that it was Sun Liangren who did it. But it’s all obvious. Jinyun was just taking the blame for her master. Can he still believe that Sun Liangren has a kind motherly heart?
However, Xuanyuan Ling did not criticize her excessively for what she said, and just said calmly: "The Third Prince is being raised by Concubine Chun now, so he will be Concubine Chun's child in the future."
When Sun Liangren heard this, she burst into tears: "Your Majesty, the Third Prince is the child I gave birth to after ten months of hard work. I don't ask for anything now, I just want to see the child. Mother and child are connected by heart, Your Majesty, how can I feel at ease when he gets sick again and again?"
In fact, she was really scared. The emperor's attitude was so firm. She was really afraid that the emperor would not even let her see the child. That was not acceptable.
Xuanyuan Ling didn't have the time to argue with Sun Liangren, so after asking her to leave, he went to see the Third Prince.
After the repeated ordeals of the past few days, the third prince looked a little depressed.
It is very obvious in children that if they don’t eat well and sleep well for a day, they will be in poor spirits and will not look as lively as before.
Concubine Chun was also exhausted by what had happened in the past few days, and her complexion was not much better.
Xuanyuan Ling had never thought that the Third Prince's illness would recur to this extent.
It's not a serious illness, but it's really annoying to have it repeatedly.
"Have you asked someone to check it out?" Xuanyuan Ling naturally had his doubts.
Concubine Chun shook her head: "The eating utensils have been checked and there is nothing abnormal, but the disease keeps recurring."
Xuanyuan Ling saw Concubine Chun's expression and felt that she was worrying too much. He comforted her, "It will be fine. The imperial physician said it's not a serious illness."
Although it is not a serious illness, the recurrence of this disease is torture.
Concubine Chun couldn't relax.
Sun Liangren was indeed a little unsure when she asked Xuanyuan Ling to drive her away. Seeing her like this, Meng Yi was afraid that she would accidentally reveal the truth in front of the emperor, so he hurriedly advised her: "My dear, don't think too much. This matter is concealed, and Concubine Chun can't find anything wrong after all."
Sun Liangren asked Meng Yi uncertainly: "Do you think this will really work?"
"After all, she is the prince's biological mother. If the emperor is not moved once, he will be moved after seeing her several times."
Sun Liangren sighed: "I hope so."
Seeing that she had become more determined in her mind, Meng Yi felt relieved. He was afraid that she would not be able to hold back before the real thing happened. That would mean he would die before accomplishing his mission. If something happened to Sun Liangren, he would not be able to recover. He really wanted this matter to succeed, and now everything depended on the Third Prince.
Soon it was time to pay respects again, but this time Concubine Chun simply said she was sick and did not come. Now everyone in the palace knew about the Third Prince, so it was no surprise that Shen Qing never missed the visit.
She has never missed any part of this melon-eating event.
This time, everyone else was ignored except Sun Liangren, who was released from house arrest. She knelt in front of the queen and begged, "Queen, I am really heartbroken. I haven't slept for several days because I am worried about the third prince's condition. Please allow me to go and see the third prince. I will never say anything."
Seeing Sun Liangren like this, the Queen couldn't help but think more. On that day, he cut the Third Prince's face to frame Concubine Yu, and now he has been out of house arrest for a short time and he is already sick? Is there something fishy going on here?
But Concubine Chun had a high position, and even if she handed over her power, the Empress would always remember that the Emperor cared about Concubine Chun to assist in managing the six palaces. Now Good Man Sun had come upon her on his own.
"This matter was ordered by the Emperor, and I have no say in it. If you can ask for mercy from the Emperor, then of course it's possible."
She won't get involved in this mess. Let's make a fuss. Now she's just watching the show. If she can bring down Concubine Chun, she'll feel at ease, right?
Shen Qing just watched a good show of a loving mother.
Shen Qing naturally knew about the Third Prince's affairs. During this period, he also visited Concubine Chun several times. He also suspected that this matter was too coincidental, but seeing that Concubine Chun checked carefully, it was actually quite normal for children to have skin diseases, right?
But Shen Qing felt that Sun Liangren was confused that day, and today she saw this again. Although it was not her turn to investigate this matter, she really didn't believe that there was such a coincidence in the world.
