Zhao Yunwan simply said, "Teacher, just say what you have to say. Ding'er should be in charge of things now, so that he will know his limits and where to focus his efforts in the future."
When Xiao Ding heard his mother address the head of the Imperial Medical Academy as "teacher," he felt that this was the first time he truly knew his mother.
So, Mother had studied medicine? Why had she never mentioned it to him?
"Your Majesty, I have reviewed the medical records of Imperial Physician Wang Yangchun from last night. Xiao Sheng suffered a hysterical episode last night, which Wang Yangchun suppressed with medication. As you know, Wang Yangchun's medical skills are mediocre. This morning, the medication wore off, and Xiao Sheng's hysteria was not completely cured. Presumably, his madness was not intentional." Lu Dacheng carefully answered, observing Zhao Yunwan's expression.
“I always felt that someone was guiding him from behind. Otherwise, how could a six-year-old child suddenly have a hysterical episode at just the right time, and how could he just happen to be in my garden, pull out opium, and bring it to the Imperial Study?” Zhao Yunwan still did not believe that Xiao Sheng’s madness was accidental.
"Your Majesty, please take a look at Wang Yangchun's prescription from last night!" After saying this, Lu Dacheng carefully placed the prescription in Zhao Yunwan's hand.
Zhao Yunwan looked closely and saw that the prescription read, "Crown Prince Sheng has been waking up frequently from his sleep, sitting on the bed crying, and even experiencing convulsions. These symptoms have been present for several days."
"Could this really be a coincidence?" Zhao Yunwan still felt that something was not right.
"This morning, I took Xiao Sheng's pulse and found that the opium in his body was sometimes fiercely attacking his limbs and meridians, and sometimes it was silent. Such torment can indeed drive a person crazy." Lu Dacheng reiterated his assurance from a medical perspective.
No one could have imagined that Xiao Sheng, who had always been neglected and uncared for, would have such a wonderful encounter in the Li family.
After Xiao Sheng left the palace gate, he urged the horse to speed up, and they galloped all the way to the Li family's residence.
Xiao Sheng found Li Ting at the martial arts training ground and told him everything that had happened the night before and this morning.
Li Ting inwardly praised him, "The Crown Prince is still the Crown Prince. Although he is young, his scheming is so subtle that it leaves no trace."
Meanwhile, Li Xingran was fast asleep in the cot next to her. As if sensing something, Li Xingran burst into tears again.
Aunt Cheng sat in the pavilion outside the martial arts training ground and quickly changed Li Xingran into clean clothes.
Li Xingran was awakened by the urge to urinate, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Sheng.
Li Xingran felt that Xiao Sheng was a little different today; he seemed to be in a good mood. However, Li Xingran felt angry whenever she saw Xiao Sheng.
[You cannon fodder prince, I wonder how things went yesterday! But I bet the emperor won't make things difficult for Zhao Yunwan. He's completely bewitched by her charms; how could he bear to kill his beloved? Just wait and see, I wonder which unlucky soul will become the scapegoat.]
