The emperor, empress, and concubines were all sitting in the outer room. When Zhuang Yuyan entered, everyone looked unhappy. It was obvious that the third prince was not in good condition.

When the eunuch reported it, everyone in the room knew that Zhuang Yuyan had arrived. When they saw her walk in in a very orderly manner, they exchanged glances and understood that there was another actor.

After Zhuang Yuyan bowed, Feng Jian raised his hand and said, "No need to be so polite." After that, he asked the people around him to give him a seat and stopped talking.

The Queen glanced at Zhuang Yuyan, who was dressed inconspicuously, and asked, "Is Zhao Chongyi also here to visit the Third Prince?"

Zhuang Yuyan leaned forward and lowered her head, saying, "Your Majesty, I heard that the Third Prince was seriously ill, so I came to visit him. I wonder how he is doing now?"

"The imperial physician is doing his best to treat him, and the emperor has also sent for the imperial physician to come," the queen sighed, "I just hope that the third prince is safe and sound."

Zhuang Yuyan echoed a few words and then stopped talking. The Queen didn't seem to want to talk much either, and the room returned to silence.

"Your Majesty, the third prince's condition has worsened. We would like to treat him with acupuncture, but..." The imperial physician came out trembling and knelt down, apparently helpless against the third prince's illness.

"When Doctor Yu comes, you will discuss it carefully," Feng Jin said with a serious face, "I order you to do your best to treat him. If you need anything, just tell me."

"Yes," the imperial physician had a lot of cold sweat on his forehead. He heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the emperor's words. The emperor's words meant that no matter what happened to the third prince, they would not have to worry about their lives.

The swollen-eyed Concubine Xian wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and looked at the emperor carefully. Seeing his cold expression, she felt a chill in her heart for no reason and dared not look at him any further.

The room remained silent until Doctor Yu arrived, when it became a little lively. Zhuang Yuyan looked at the doctors who were specially appointed to serve the emperor. In addition to treating the emperor, they were also living beings that the emperor showed his grace to. Ordinary people could not be cured by Doctor Yu.

The doctors entered the room for only half an incense stick of time before they left with solemn expressions. The leading doctor said, "Your Majesty, we are incompetent."

Feng Jin's expression darkened slightly, "How on earth could this be?"

"The Third Prince has caught a cold, and today he has diarrhea and a high fever. I'm afraid... it's more likely to be a serious illness than a good one." Doctor Yu knelt his head on the ground, waiting for the king's wrath.

Upon hearing what Doctor Yu said, Concubine Xian started sobbing first. In the quiet room, her sobs were somewhat conspicuous, but it also made people feel that it was supposed to be so.

Zhuang Yuyan looked at the concubines around her who were all sad and worried, and lowered her head to hide her emotionless eyes. How many of these women had seen the Third Prince before? They were considered to have a conscience if they didn't take pleasure in his misfortune. They were just deceiving themselves and others by pretending to be sad.

"Your Majesty," Gao Dezhong came in from outside and saw that the masters in the room looked unhappy. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Ms. Kong wants to see you."

Feng Jin frowned slightly, "Kong Cairen?" He really had no impression of this woman. He waved his hand in annoyance, "No!"

Zhuang Yuyan suddenly remembered that this Concubine Kong seemed to be the sister of the Third Prince's biological mother? Judging from the Emperor's appearance, it seemed that he had no impression of this Concubine Kong at all.

This is really interesting. Another pair of sisters, one gave birth to a prince, and the other was not favored. How were they arranged to enter the palace?

"Yes," Gao Dezhong saw that the emperor was like this, so he had no time to spend more and retreated.

The Queen didn't seem to react at all to this matter, but Zhuang Yuyan felt that the Queen's action of wiping her eyes was a little deliberate.

"Eunuch Gao, Eunuch Gao," Kong Cairen, who was kneeling outside, saw Gao Dezhong coming out and hurriedly pulled the corner of his robe and asked, her face pale, "Did the emperor summon me, did he?"

Although she was just a minor talent, Eunuch Gao did not face Kong directly, after all, she was still kneeling, "Master Kong, the emperor is worried about the third prince's illness and has no intention of summoning you. You should go back and rest early."

After hearing this, Kong Cairen sat down limply, and the hand that was holding Gao Dezhong's robe loosened, and the light in her eyes disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Gao Dezhong looked at her like this, shook his head, turned around and went back to the door.

Seeing Gao Dezhong leave, Kong Cairen suddenly raised her head, and suddenly, as if stimulated, she shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please let me see the Third Prince, Your Majesty!"

"Who are you? Why are you making such a noise?" A little child in a brocade robe came over with a group of eunuchs and palace maids, looking at Kong Cairen's crazy behavior with dissatisfaction, "It's so unruly." After saying that, he swarmed in with a group of palace maids and eunuchs, as if Kong Cairen on the street was an insignificant speck of dust, not worthy of his attention at all.

Kong Cairen stared in a daze as the child in brocade robe entered the gate. Suddenly, he laughed twistedly, stood up abruptly, and was about to rush in. The palace maids and eunuchs were so frightened that they were stunned for a long time. After a while, they remembered to stop him.

"What's the commotion outside?" The queen frowned as if she heard the noise outside. Feng Jin also raised his head and looked outside the door.

"I have seen my father, my mother, my mother's concubine, and all the ladies." At this time, the eldest prince happened to walk in. Hearing what the queen said, he said, "I don't know who is making a fuss outside the door. I'm afraid she is the one who made the noise."

The queen frowned even more tightly upon hearing this, and turned to look at the emperor, "Your Majesty, look at this..."

"Let her in," Feng Jin began expressionlessly, "It's inappropriate to make such a scene."

Zhuang Yuyan looked at the door. When Kong Cairen walked in in a wolfish look, she sighed slightly in her heart. Looking at Kong Cairen's behavior today, her feelings for the Third Prince were real, but it must have made the Emperor dissatisfied.

"Ms. Kong, what are you doing making such a fuss?" The Queen looked down at Ms. Kong, who was kneeling on the ground. "You are just a little lady. Why are you making such a fuss now when you can't just stay in your own residence? Don't you know that Doctor Yu is trying to treat the Third Prince? If something happens to the Third Prince, can you bear the responsibility for your fuss?"

Zhuang Yuyan frowned slightly. The queen was indeed a smart person, but she was pushing the blame onto Concubine Kong, which showed how cruel she was. She had been in the business world for many years, and even though she was cold-blooded, she would not do anything to take advantage of the situation even if she did not help.

The Queen is worthy of being the Queen, she is indeed beyond her reach.

Kong Cairen kowtowed heavily, and the sound was heard by everyone in the room. Zhuang Yuyan's eyebrows twitched slightly and she looked away.

Feng Jian glanced at the concubines and then slowly retracted his gaze to look at Concubine Kong who was still bowing her head. "Okay, get up. What are you doing here?"

"Your Majesty, I know that disturbing you and the Empress is a capital crime. I plead guilty. I just wanted to see the Third Prince once before that. Just once," Concubine Kong looked up at the emperor, her not-so-pretty face pleading, "As long as the Third Prince is well, I will have no more requests."

Feng Jin frowned, not understanding for a moment why this Concubine Kong thought so highly of the Third Prince. Suddenly he remembered that the Third Prince's biological mother's surname was also Kong, and he understood. Seeing Concubine Kong's expression, "You are guilty of disturbing the emperor, but considering that you care about the Third Prince, I will pardon your serious crime and punish you to kneel for three hours. Kneel there." Feng Jin casually pointed to a corner of the room.

As he turned his head, his eyes swept over all the concubines again.
