After experiencing great ups and downs, his life was once on the verge of death. The prince finally woke up, but was poisoned again.
The Queen's expression tightened. "Doctor Chen, how is my son?"
The Queen asked, and Doctor Chen didn't dare to give a perfunctory answer. "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is in good health. The poison has only just taken root, so it won't be a problem. I'll prescribe some medicine for the wet nurse to drink, and the Crown Prince will be able to remove the poison."
The queen was relieved to hear that the child was fine.
Emperor Mingxi was furious at this point. He boasted that he held absolute power, and no one dared to rebel under his covert threats. He never expected someone would even think of targeting his newborn child.
Is he a relative? Or a noble family? Or a humble family?
Every time he thought of a possibility, his expression became colder.
The strong sense of oppression made the entire palace feel like it was suffocating.
The jade ring in Emperor Mingxi's hand was crackling with each squeeze.
"My son, this matter must have started from the harem. I will get to the bottom of it today." The empress dowager has recovered. Her beloved grandson almost died.
She will never let the mastermind go no matter what.
As orders were issued one after another, the Empress Dowager ordered people to search all the palaces in the harem.
Strive not to miss any gap.
The Empress Dowager also called the concubines to their seats one by one. Only Concubine Bao remained kneeling.
The Empress Dowager did not allow the concubines to return to the palace. From Concubine Wen to the talented women, everyone prayed to the Bodhisattva for protection in their hearts.
Please pray that nothing shameful will be found in your palace.
There was a great deal of panic in the harem, and the former dynasty also received an oral order.
Emperor Mingxi summoned all the officials from the three provinces and six ministries, as well as clan members, to the Xuanzheng Hall.
In Prince An's palace.
Facing the eunuch who came to deliver the oral instructions, Yan Zeli took out a purse from his pocket and said, "You've been tired on the road. Please use this little money to buy a glass of water."
But unlike before, the eunuch who delivered the message only said with a stern expression, "Thank you for your kindness."
He didn't accept it, which made Yan Zeli's heart beat like a drum.
Such a big commotion is either a rebellion or something has happened to the prince.
Yan Zeli was thinking to himself, he had disappeared for a long time, who was doing this?
When he arrived at Xuan Zheng Hall, he found that all the people with real power were there.
Some people looked at each other, wanting to talk, but the sword-wielding guards in the hall made them silent.
"Thank you for your hard work, mother. I still have government affairs to attend to." Emperor Mingxi bowed.
The Queen Mother had some idea of his behavior and agreed.
Only Yan Chengyu was not in the situation. His throat hurt and he couldn't speak. He could only look at his father with dark eyes.
The emperor smiled at him and said, "Take the prince down and feed him. Yu'er, your father will come to see you later."
As soon as the emperor's procession left, most of the hall was empty.
The Empress Dowager watched the Emperor leave.
She didn't look old at all, her gaze piercing those present. "I'm the Queen Mother, and I've been praying and fasting for too long. I don't even care about the little mistakes you make on a daily basis."
"I never thought I would raise such a big heart in you. If anyone has something to hide, come out and confess now, I will leave you with an intact body."
Everyone trembled.
