Li naturally also heard about the second prince's injury. When the eldest princess came back, she specifically called her over to ask about the whole story.
Knowing that the Second Prince was bitten by a poisonous snake while trying to save the First Prince, Li felt sorry for him but was also very happy. However, she did not show it on her face. Instead, she asked many questions about the Second Prince out of concern.
I heard the eldest princess say that the second prince was poisoned. If the poison was not detoxified in time, it might be very dangerous. Moreover, the herb was not available here, so I had to go to the mountains to find it.
And there are only a few days left. If the person cannot be found, the Second Prince will have to leave it to fate.
After learning about the situation, she asked the eldest princess to stay in the house for dinner. After the eldest princess left, Li sat on a round stool and embroidered flowers in a good mood.
Nanny Fang knew that Gege was in a good mood, but she still said, "Gege, do you think Concubine Wen will become suspicious about this?"
"No, this time the Second Prince and his companions went to the mountains. There are many snakes, insects, rats and ants in the mountains. How could anyone possibly suspect them?"
Li was very confident in what she said, and she handled this matter very carefully, and the people around her did not personally contact anyone outside.
Even if there was suspicion, so what? Without evidence, Wen could still slander Li, so Li was not worried about this matter at all.
Nanny Fang thought so too. In this matter, they could be said to have just passed a note out. They had never left the house before this incident happened.
"Please send some things over later. The second prince is injured. As the mother of the eldest princess, I have to show some appreciation." After saying that, Li lowered her head and continued the embroidery at hand.
"Yes~" Nanny Fang stepped out.
When Concubine De was having dinner with the quadruplets, Nanny Yu came in and told her about the Second Prince being poisoned.
Empress Defei was shocked. "When did this happen?"
"Just today, it was said that while hunting in the mountains, the Second Prince was bitten by a snake while trying to save the First Prince. Now the Second Prince is still in a coma."
Although Nanny Yu's voice was not loud, the quadruplets, who were very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, also heard some of what she said, as if something had happened to their second brother.
They stopped eating. Manman looked at Mama nervously and asked, "Mama, is there something wrong with my second brother?"
The other three little ones also looked at Concubine De.
Defei didn't know how to tell them for a moment, but since they all knew it, Defei didn't hide it from them. However, she didn't tell them that Xuanxuan was poisoned. She only said that Xuanxuan was bitten by a snake and was injured, and it would take some time to recover.
The quadruplets ran down the stool and came to Concubine De. "Madam, we want to go back. Can you take us back? Second brother is injured. Mother must be very sad and upset."
The quadruplets are smarter than ordinary children. If they want to see their second brother, they have to accompany their mother first.
"It's dark now. Be good. Mama will take you back tomorrow, okay?" Defei comforted.
The quadruplets looked outside and saw that it was indeed dark.
"Then we'll go back to Mother's tomorrow."
"Well, don't worry, your second brother will be fine." Concubine De was afraid that they would think too much.
Although the quadruplets were worried about their second brother, they had no choice but to listen to their mama and go back tomorrow.
The next day, Tiantian and Xiaobai set off with eight skilled guards sent by the Fourth Master.
When Chenchen heard about this, he also wanted to go along, especially Honghui, who came to see the Fourth Master with Chenchen early in the morning, but was sternly rejected by the Fourth Master.
He was already worried enough about the little girl Tiantian going, so the Fourth Master firmly disagreed.
Wen Mianmian also disagreed with them going. What were so many people going for? Just to join in the fun.
The two were scolded by the Fourth Master and left with their heads hung.
"These brats are so disobedient." The Fourth Master felt that sooner or later he would be pissed to death by them.
Wen Mianmian walked over to the Fourth Master and patted him on the back gently. "Okay, don't be angry. They are also worried about Xuanxuan. Just explain it to them."
"Humph, I know that too." The Fourth Master sighed and pulled Mianmian to sit on the round stool beside him. "I'll go see Xuanxuan later. I'll go and arrange things over there today and come back early to be with you."
Although I don't have to attend the morning court when I accompany the emperor on a tour, there are much more things to do than when he is not on tour.
"No need, the master is busy. I'll take care of Xuanxuan here. I won't let anything happen to him."
Since the tour, the master has been basically busy and only has time occasionally.
"It's okay. After I take care of this matter, the rest can be handed over to others. Otherwise, it would be useless for me to support so many people." The Fourth Master gently stroked her soft hair and said softly.
"If the Emperor knew about this, it would be bad for the master." Wen Mianmian was still a little worried.
"No, the Emperor is busy too. I just need to get the job done."
The Fourth Master felt itchy and gently pinched her little face, "Okay, you don't need to worry about these."
When Wen Mianmian heard him say this, she was no longer worried.
As soon as the Fourth Master left, Concubine De came back with the quadruplets.
Wen Mianmian was just about to go to Xuanxuan's side, but before she even walked out the door, she saw four children running towards her.
"Mom~" He kept calling out as he ran over.
Yuanyuan and Anan quickly threw themselves into Wen Mianmian's arms.
"Why are you back?" Then he looked at Consort De behind them, "Mother, why are you here too?"
"I heard Xuanxuan was injured, so I came to see him." As if knowing what she wanted to ask, Concubine De continued, "They happened to hear it last night and were clamoring to come back, so I brought them back with me."
"Mother, how is my second brother?" Seventh Prince An An raised his little head and looked at her and asked, with obvious worry in his eyes.
The others also looked over.
"Your second brother is fine, he just got a little hurt."
"Then mother, let's go see my second brother."
Wen Mianmian thought for a moment and said, "Okay, mother will take you to see your second brother."
Everyone walked towards Xuanxuan. Wen Mianmian came here. Honghui, Chenchen and others stayed in Xuanxuan's room, but Xuanxuan still didn't wake up. The imperial physician had just finished giving the second prince an acupuncture.
Seeing Concubine De coming, he quickly stood up and saluted.
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Virtuous."
"Greetings to Mama." Honghui and others also stood up and bowed to greet.
"No need to be polite." Then he turned his gaze to the imperial physician, "Imperial physician, how is the Second Prince?"
The imperial physician stood up and told Concubine De again yesterday's diagnosis.
He came here today to help the Second Prince continue to give acupuncture to prevent the toxins in his body from spreading.
