Chapter 322: Good Shows Come One After Another
Upon learning that Xiao Tangbao had woken up, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor were ecstatic, and the palace was filled with joy.
If they hadn't taken into consideration the little guy's need for rest, I'm afraid the grandfather and grandson would have gone to the Regent's Palace right then!
The two of them were obsessed with it and were anxious and worried... They couldn't sleep well all night.
After the morning court session the next day, the two of them gathered together, discussing who would go to visit Tang Bao first, but they heard the shadow guard come in excitedly to report - Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess had already left the house and was heading towards the palace!
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, worried but also very happy!
He immediately ordered the Imperial Hospital and the Imperial Kitchen to work together to prepare all kinds of cakes, pastries and sweet soups for the little one...
Afraid that she was weak and easily caught an illness, the palace quickly became busy. Not only were they busy burning the floor heating, but everyone also started cleaning and tidying up in full swing!
Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, he finally got the news: it was said that the little guy changed his mind halfway and followed the officials leaving the court all the way to He Mansion to watch the excitement!
Seeing the Empress Dowager's loss, the Emperor comforted her, saying, "Perhaps the little fellow had just woken up and was in urgent need of merit. As soon as he heard someone had died, he couldn't wait to pray for the soul to be reincarnated..."
The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
The Empress Dowager thought to herself, it doesn’t matter. The little guy has been sleeping in bed for a year and now he’s finally awake. Whether it’s earning merit or having fun, it’s better than being bored!
But she will definitely... think of coming to the palace for lunch, right?
Time passed little by little...
As a result, the two of them waited and waited for the little guy but he didn't come.
A team of people were sent out to secretly protect and report back to the palace. They kept going back and forth, and their legs were almost worn out!
All that was reported back were the dirty deeds happening in the He Mansion... No one died at all!
The Empress Dowager's expression grew increasingly grim.
The emperor was also feeling very upset!
He immediately took up his pen and drafted an imperial edict himself. He gritted his teeth and stamped the imperial seal on it, and ordered the chief eunuch to rush to He's mansion to announce the edict.
......
"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims:
He Weian, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, has failed in his duties, lost all sense of shame, and severely damaged public morals and has a lack of moral character!
From now on, all official positions will be dismissed!
If there are other crimes, they will be handed over to the Ministry of Justice for strict investigation and punishment!
So ordered! "
As soon as the eunuch delivering the imperial eunuch's sharp and high-pitched voice fell, He Weian, who had just been hoping for a lucky break, was struck by lightning and was completely dumbfounded.
More than ten years of hard study, more than twenty years of working in officialdom... countless efforts, calculations and management, all turned into a dream in an instant!
All the strength in his body was drained away in an instant, and he collapsed to the ground. The blood drained from his face, leaving only endless fear and despair.
Looking at He Weian, who was in a state of despair and blamed himself for his actions, everyone's discussions became louder and louder, like a boiling pot.
Amid the noise, the frail little Tang Bao's eyelashes trembled a few times, and finally he could not hold on any longer. His little head tilted, and he closed his eyes heavily in the wheelchair.
That pale, thin little face, in all its mourning attire, looked even more tranquil and pitiful...
Shen Ying'er's heart skipped a beat, and her face turned pale under the veil!
As she subconsciously stepped forward, she saw the imperial physician running over, holding his breath and concentrating, carefully taking her son's pulse.
After a moment, the imperial physician relaxed his frown and whispered to Chengfeng, "Your Highness is just exhausted and sleeping soundly. There's nothing serious!"
Along with Shen Ying'er, the people around her secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Chengfeng leaned over and carefully, gently and steadily held little Tangbao in his arms.
He nodded slightly to Shen Ying'er, then left with his guards without looking back.
......
Seeing that the guests who came to pay their respects had left one after another, Shen Xinrou was afraid that her savior had also quietly left, so she tiptoed around to look for him and trotted towards Shen Ying'er.
"Doctor Shen!?"
She gratefully held Shen Ying'er's hand, tears welling in her eyes: "Thank you, Doctor Shen! If it weren't for you, I would have been lying in that coffin right now, buried without a clear explanation!"
Shen Ying'er smiled and gently patted Shen Xinrou's hand: "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda... Madam is blessed with great fortune, everything is fate, there is no need to worry so much."
"???" He Weian, who had been slumped on the ground, suddenly sat up straight after hearing the conversation between the two.
What's the meaning?
It turned out that it wasn't Shen Xinrou herself who was on guard, but this female doctor who appeared out of nowhere and ruined his good deeds! ?
How can this be possible...
Anger suddenly surged up in He Weian, and he turned his head quickly. His bloodshot eyes, like a poisonous snake, fiercely fixed on the woman in a white veil a few steps away.
"Great! So it's you, the nosy bitch, who ruined me!!"
He seemed to be energized, leaped up from the ground, roared, and pounced on Shen Ying'er like a mad beast.
In a flash, He Weian's pair of iron-like hands tightly grasped Shen Ying'er's slender neck!
"Bitch! I'll strangle you to death!!"
"Ah——!!!" Shen Xinrou screamed in shock. Without thinking too much, she immediately rushed forward, trying to pry open He Weian's hand that was pinching Shen Ying'er's neck.
"Fuck!" It was the first time for everyone in the Shen family to see their aunt fighting. They subconsciously cursed and rushed forward to help.
Pushing, scolding, struggling... the crowd instantly became a ball, and the scene was in chaos.
Those officials who had not yet left were so shocked by this sudden change that they froze in place.
Then they all turned around and stared at the incredible scene in amazement.
Everyone was shocked: Why is the He family's drama going on one after another today...and it has no end?
What a pity, I will never have the chance to report to He Wei'an again!
"Cough... cough cough cough cough cough cough cough..." Shen Ying'er, who had finally broken free from the clamps, sat on the ground and couldn't get up. She covered her neck, coughing and gasping for breath.
Soon, she was so frightened that she subconsciously supported herself on the ground with her hands and moved inch by inch towards the corner, wanting to be as far away from He Weian as possible.
In a panic, a jade pendant tied with an old rope suddenly slipped from her sleeve, and with a light "pa" sound, it fell on the cold and hard ground.
"Doctor Shen..." Shen Xinrou, who was about to step forward to support her, accidentally looked at the jade pendant. Her heart skipped a beat and she froze in place!
