Chapter 394 Song Mingen is the uncle?
"Wow, it's worthy of being a Hu brush made by Master Zhang. The workmanship is really exquisite." Xiao Hongyu stared at it lovingly, "I will use it to help my father review memorials in the future."
"Little uncle, the emperor would be reluctant to let you suffer so much, you must take good care of yourself."
"I'm not that weak anymore. I can study in the library for two hours without feeling tired, and I can even practice calligraphy for half an hour. It shouldn't be a problem for me to help Father share some of the burden."
Xiao Chengqian had to admit that his little uncle was a genius. Despite his poor health, he could read and write at the age of three.
He sincerely hoped that the little prince would recover.
But my father is in a hurry to take the throne!
If you act like a good prince, you will also have great power in the court.
But now he doesn't think so.
With his grandparents standing above him, it's impossible for him to marry the girl he loves by going over their heads!
Only that position can make its own decisions.
The uncle and nephew chatted and laughed in the imperial garden for half an incense stick of time. After half an incense stick, Wang Gui came over with the palace servants, "Your Highness, Prince Xiao, the Emperor wants you to have lunch at Weiyang Palace."
Xiao Hongyu dragged Xiao Chengqian back to Weiyang Palace and asked impatiently, "Sister Yu, is the Queen Mother cured?"
Imperial Concubine Qing: "Yu'er, not so fast. It will take at least 21 days to see the effect."
Song Yu agreed, "Yes, I will return to the palace in twenty-one days to reexamine the Empress and adjust the treatment. However, I cannot guarantee that I can cure her."
Xiao Hongyu felt a little disappointed. He and his mother really shared the same suffering, and neither could be completely cured.
"Sister Yu, please think carefully about this and do your best to cure my mother."
"Don't worry, little prince. I will do my best to find a solution."
After the meal, Xiao Chengqian sent Song Yu back to the Du Mansion, hurried back to Prince Rong's Mansion and went directly to Xiao Hongyi's study.
"Father, the guards in the palace are getting tighter and tighter, especially those around the young prince, not to mention those around the emperor."
Xiao Hongyi narrowed his eyes and said, "Then let Song Yu do something."
Xiao Chengqian's eyes widened. "How is it possible that she hasn't married yet?"
"Everything is done by people, what's impossible? Come closer."
"No! This is too risky!"
Xiao Chengxu thought his father had gone mad. "Grandpa and grandmother haven't returned yet. No matter what, I'll have to wait until I turn eighteen to inherit the throne. There's no such thing as a foolproof plan. Rushing too quickly will only lead to certain death! Father, calm down! Calm down and make a careful plan. Once you take action, there's no turning back!"
Xiao Hongyi looked at him solemnly, "Whether or not I inherit the title of prince is not that important. Our goal is to reach the top."
Xiao Chengqian said, "I know, but there's no need to be so hasty, right? The Emperor is in good health now. Even if he wants to start a rebellion, he has to wait until Song Yu marries him. By then, she will be willing to do it."
Xiao Hongyi nodded. "Yes, that's what my father thought at the beginning. But Song Yu might not even marry in yet, and our family of three will be kicked out."
Xiao Chengqian was confused. "Father, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"
Xiao Hongyi saw that the conversation had come to this point, so there was no need to hide it from him. "Do you know how Song Mingen died?"
Xiao Chengqian was puzzled. Why did his father mention him for no reason? "Didn't he die of illness? What happened? Could he have been murdered?"
"Because he has the same ears as his father, he must die!"
"What?" Xiao Chengqian was shocked. "Why would father want to kill him? Just because he has the same ears as you? This is too outrageous."
"You think it's outrageous?" Xiao Hongyi looked at him with increasingly stern eyes.
Xiao Chengqian felt terrified when he was stared at. A thought flashed through his mind, "Could Song Mingen also be my grandparents' son? I haven't heard that I have an uncle?"
"It might be your great uncle." Xiao Hongyi was worried that his proud son would not be able to accept it, so he followed his words and said, "Your grandparents went on an outing to look for your great uncle. Once your grandparents come back, they will definitely meet Jiang Yunwan and Song Yu. What if they find that Song Mingen looks like your grandparents? The child in Jiang Yunwan's belly is a legitimate prince! For your future, father would rather kill the wrong person than let any suspicious person go!"
"But...uncle is also your brother."
Xiao Hongyi said coldly: "Prince Rong's Mansion can only have me, not him! I won't allow him to come back and take everything from you and me!"
Seeing how radical he was, Xiao Chengqian thought Song Mingen was most likely his uncle. "Grandpa and grandma will definitely come to see them when they return! Can we stop them?"
"Don't worry, they won't see it. Just turn a blind eye to whatever Father does!"
Song Mansion
"Miss, not long after you entered the palace, Madam and the Third Young Master sent Du Zhihuan back to the Song Residence. She should have arrived at the flower shop by now. The clothes and valuables that Yilan Fanghua brought out yesterday have all been sent to the flower shop."
Bai Lan: "Du Zhihuan really moved to Huazhuang!"
Song Yu was a little confused. "Shouldn't Song Mingzhu be fostered for at least three months? Why did she move in so quickly? Could it be that she realized Song Mingzhu wasn't her biological mother?"
"No! If she had known about it, how could she have insisted on going to the Flower Manor? She would have shamelessly come back to live with the Marquis and his wife. It must be because of that unspeakable serious illness that she had to move out early."
Song Yu couldn't figure it out. "Send the news to Prince Mu and ask him to send people to keep an eye on Huazhuang. When she leaves the city, you don't have to keep an eye on her anymore. Let Prince Mu's people take over."
Chunhua: "What about the house on the west side of the city?"
"Miss," Bai Lan said, "He's just an ordinary doctor. We're mainly focused on Du Zhihuan."
"Keep an eye on her for now! This is Du Zhihuan's only unusual behavior right now. It seems strange no matter how you look at it, she doesn't go over and let him feel her pulse."
Cheng Mansion
Jiang Yunshu guessed that his mistress was about to give birth, so he pretended to be weak for the past two days. After going to Cheng Xiao's room, he fell asleep in Yanzhi's arms within a few minutes.
From time to time, he would pretend to vomit a few times to scare Cheng Xiao.
"Yanzhi, quickly send the lady back. Please persuade her to take good care of the baby. I will go to see him."
Yanzhi caught a glimpse of the disdain that flashed across his eyes, and anger surged in her heart!
In order to give him a son, his wife has taken so many harmful medicines over the years that he even feels sick!
Yanzhi suppressed her anger and said respectfully, "Okay, my lord. I will help the lady back right away."
Seeing Jiang Yunshu being helped back, Meng Guangde hurried to Madam Cheng's yard.
"Madam, the amount is enough. Madam's body has responded. When Madam Yu is due to give birth, we only need to give her a little shock to induce premature delivery."
Madam Cheng paused while sipping her tea and asked, "Will it not affect the child?"
"No...it's just that Madam may have difficulty conceiving in the future, and her health will be much worse than before."
Old Madam Cheng lowered her eyes and drank the tea in the cup. "You must take good care of the child that day. He is my own grandson."
"Don't worry, old lady. I will rush to see you as soon as possible."
"Well, you step back first."
"Madame Niu, take your trusted aides and deploy them between Taoguang Courtyard and Fangfei Courtyard. On the day of the birth, when Shushu leaves Taoguang Courtyard and quickly arrives at Fangfei Courtyard, be cautious and act naturally, and don't scare her too much."
"Don't worry, old lady. I know what's going on."
"Also, send someone to keep an eye on that place. It should be over in the next two days. If the Yu clan launches an attack, report immediately!"
