In the past, I was worried that the prince’s residence would be difficult, and I was afraid that there would be some trouble.
In the end, I found that I was not busy twice in the whole year.
I was particularly happy before, because such a good job happened to me.
But today's matter is extremely tricky. He would rather be busy all year long than get involved in today's matter.
As soon as they reached the door, the maid lifted the curtain and the court doctor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
He took a few deep breaths before going into the house.
As soon as he saw the scene inside the house, the court doctor's face darkened slightly. This really was going to cost him his life!
Concubine Du was sitting on the ground with her hands and feet tied, looking dazed. The Ninth Prince was holding Concubine Yun's hand and standing beside her with a solemn expression.
Is this what he can see?
The court physician lowered his head and saluted, speaking cautiously, afraid of saying a wrong word. "Your Highness, Aunt Yun, Concubine Du, what is this?"
"Doctor Li, I've asked you to come today. Please help me see if Concubine Du has gone insane today."
Qin Zongzhi let go of Zhao Yunzhu's hand and took a step forward. He patted Li Fuyi's shoulders twice with a serious tone.
Doctor Li understood, smiled apologetically, and replied respectfully, "Your Highness, put it down. I will treat Concubine Du right away."
Du Jiaojiao is not stupid, she is just stimulated.
Doctor Li prescribed some medicine, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Concubine Du will be fully recovered in a few days."
Qin Zongzhi nodded, and Doctor Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say goodbye.
But he was stopped by the Ninth Prince.
"Doctor Li, come and take care of Madam Yun once every three days."
Doctor Li's pupils trembled, and he looked at the Ninth Prince in disbelief. What was he talking about?
Did he hear it right?
"Your Highness, are you asking me to take care of Concubine Yun?"
Qin Zongzhi nodded.
Doctor Li was stunned for a moment, then calmed his chaotic thoughts and replied respectfully, "Okay."
He couldn't utter another word.
Everyone in the Ninth Prince's residence knew that Princess Song Shumin had drunk a bowl of apothecary medicine, which had injured Concubine Yun's body. The palace doctors said that it would be difficult for her to get pregnant.
He was also there at the time, watching the imperial doctors whispering to each other.
Unexpectedly, this hot potato finally fell into his hands.
Doctor Li looked particularly lonely as he left.
Zhao Yunzhu was in a low mood.
Qin Zongzhi noticed something was wrong with her and stepped forward to comfort her, "I'm just worried about your health, don't worry."
He held her in his arms, his eyes full of doting.
Zhao Yunzhu pursed her lips and smiled slightly, then raised her head slightly and looked at him, "I'm fine."
Du Jiaojiao was locked in the room, and all the dowry sent from the Yong'an Marquis Mansion in the yard was also kept under guard.
The servants of the Ninth Prince's mansion are the ones who serve Du Jiaojiao every day.
"Go back, don't be contaminated by her bad luck."
After seeing that Du Jiaojiao was settled, Qin Zongzhi showed no intention of hiding the impatience in his eyes. He took her hand and was about to go back.
Suddenly, a maid ran into the room in a hurry. While greeting, she replied, "Your Highness, Madam Yun, someone from the palace has arrived to deliver the imperial edict."
Zhao Yunzhu was slightly stunned, not knowing what was going on today.
"Let's go. I think the imperial edict I asked for you has arrived."
"oh?"
"You'll know in a moment. It's a surprise for you."
Zhao Yunzhu followed Qin Zongzhi to the front hall suspiciously. Along the way, no matter how she tried to test him, Qin Zongzhi showed no intention of letting go.
"Congratulations, Your Highness. Congratulations, Your Highness."
The eunuch curved his eyebrows and clasped his fists in congratulations.
"Please excuse me, sir, for making this trip in such cold weather."
When the eunuch finished reading the imperial edict, Qin Zongzhi took it, stood up and ordered someone to send the eunuch away.
Zhao Yunzhu frowned, still not coming back to her senses.
Just now, the imperial edict came down, and she was named a concubine?
It all happened too suddenly, it didn't seem real.
"Your Highness, how could this happen?"
She still didn't quite believe it, and always felt that she must have heard it wrong.
"I went to the palace to ask for it for you today."
"But isn't the Emperor ill?"
Zhao Yunzhu was full of suspicion.
"I went to ask the Queen."
Zhao Yunzhu knew in her heart that things might not be that simple.
"From now on, you will no longer suffer any grievances in the mansion."
This was the grace Qin Zongzhi had sought for her, and it was a way for him to make up for the guilt he felt towards her.
Only at night did he hold her in his arms, his eyes full of heartache, "Yunzhu, I didn't protect you well. I'm sorry."
He was cautious.
Zhao Yunzhu shook her head slightly, her voice choking. "It's fine."
"However, how could the Empress Dowager agree to this? If the Emperor knew, wouldn't it be very difficult for you?"
Zhao Yunzhu asked carefully.
Qin Zongzhi was silent for a long time. Seeing him like this, Zhao Yunzhu spoke, "It's inconvenient to say it, forget it. I understand your feelings."
Her tone was gentle and seemed to conceal endless tenderness and doting.
Qin Zongzhi couldn't bear to hide it from her, so he finally said, "I'm afraid my father won't wake up. The young general of the Liu family is about to come back."
Zhao Yunzhu's pupils dilated.
Although she heard that the emperor was seriously ill this time, it was the first time she heard from him that the emperor might not wake up.
This earth-shattering change was so drastic that she found it difficult to digest it for a while.
"The Empress Dowager was plotting against me, so she asked me to go pick up General Liu. I refused. Today, the Empress Dowager summoned me to the palace, and I promised her that I would go pick up General Liu. However, I must give you a status. My father refused before, and now the Empress Dowager doesn't want to agree either. There's nothing I can do. It's just a pity that you're still one step away from becoming the official consort."
The loneliness in Qin Zongzhi's eyes did not seem fake.
"Yunzhu, don't worry. Sooner or later, I will definitely give you a grand wedding and marry you officially."
In the dark night, he looked at the beauty in his arms affectionately.
Make a solemn promise.
But Zhao Yunzhu just lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in them.
Now, she was just using Qin Zongzhi. She agreed to drink the contraceptive medicine that Song Shumin brought.
Her entire Zhao family died tragically because of the emperor's suspicion of the deposed crown prince.
The emperor spared her life, just like letting her forget her hatred?
It's ridiculous.
How could she forget everything that happened when the emperor sat down?
She also wants to seek justice for the Zhao family's blood feud.
She also did not want to give birth to a child with royal blood.
"Zongzhi, are the imperial physicians truly helpless? If it were the emperor... I'm afraid the political situation would be destabilized."
Seeing her call him Zongzhi, he felt inexplicably happy in his heart, and felt that the distance between them seemed to have shortened.
"Well, I'm afraid Father can only hold out for a month or so. By then, I'm afraid something bad will happen."
"I will be leaving the house in a few days. I will leave everything in the mansion to you. You should not go out on weekdays. It is a critical period now, so it is better not to go out if you can."
Qin Zongzhi instructed word by word.
"Why do you have to go and pick up General Liu? Did something happen?"
"Go to sleep and don't worry. I'll take care of it."
This time, Qin Zongzhi did not respond.
