No matter how envious Concubine Liu was, she still had to go up and pay her respects to the prince when she saw him.
The palace maid carefully helped Concubine Liu towards the place where the flowers were most lush.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Concubine Liu just lowered her head slightly.
Xie Ruyi looked at Lady Liu with a complicated expression.
Didn't she know she wasn't pregnant? Or did she have to pretend she was?
It's really hard for Concubine Liu to show off her belly every day.
She didn't care that Concubine Liu didn't salute her. His Majesty had few children, and Concubine Liu was honored because of her son.
"Hello~" The little prince looked at Concubine Liu's belly curiously and smiled at her innocently.
Concubine Liu originally thought that the little prince, a child who was raised in such pampered conditions, would be domineering, just like her younger brother.
It was just the love from her parents that made her brother arrogant.
Who would have thought that the most noble child in the world doesn't have those bad habits.
Thinking that the person who gave her the magic medicine had not taken any action yet, Lady Liu felt a lot more relieved.
Facing the cute little prince, she felt a little more fond of him. "Yu'er?"
Jiang Yuanxing's face changed drastically, and Xie Ruyi's expression froze.
Isn't she crazy? Calling the crown prince by his name.
"Madam Liu, the Crown Prince is a half-sovereign. There are only three people in the world who can address the young prince like that." Jiang Yuanxing's tone was very impolite, and he almost pointed at Madam Liu's nose and asked, "Who the hell are you?"
Xie Ruyi gave Jiang Yuanxing a thumbs up.
Concubine Liu's smiling face immediately fell. "Your Highness is noble, but the one I am carrying in my belly is also a prince. It's just that we came first and came later."
What she meant was that if the queen hadn't been lucky enough to get pregnant first, the crown prince position might have belonged to her child.
Xie Ruyi looked stunned. "Lady Liu, are you sick?"
"Hmph, so what if I said it? Do you still dare to insult me?" She is no longer the poor little person who can be stepped on by everyone.
Lady Liu puffed out her belly, her threat evident in her expression.
Xie Ruyi rolled her eyes and pulled the little prince up, "Baby, let's go."
Concubine Liu was proud. Even though her child was not as important as the crown prince in the emperor's heart, no one else could offend him.
Now that the face of His Majesty's favorite concubine has been severely humiliated, don't even mention how arrogant Concubine Liu is in her heart.
The little prince didn't know why the sister kept pushing her belly forward. "Thank you. Is she sick?"
"Ah?" Xie Ruyi was puzzled.
"Then why..." The little prince hadn't finished speaking when he stepped on a smooth stone. He was originally falling straight back when someone, in panic, bumped into him.
The little guy flapped his hands and hit Lady Liu's stomach hard.
Lady Liu cried out in pain and hugged her belly in agony. "Child, my child."
The bright red blood flowed down the hem of Lady Liu's skirt to the ground. The pungent smell of rust and the fragrance of flowers intertwined together, creating a dizzying smell.
Xie Ruyi's mind was confused, and she subconsciously picked up the silly Yan Chengyu.
Why? She was just taking the little one out for a walk and this happened.
"Madam Liu, did you do this on purpose?" Xie Ruyi asked subconsciously.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Our beauty is pregnant with the prince, and the baby is in danger. You still say such heartbreaking words. What is your intention?" The little palace maid who spoke was the one who supported Concubine Liu. Her hands were now covered in blood, and her eyes were filled with piercing hatred.
"And the prince, he is so vicious at such a young age! He can't stand seeing Your Majesty have another child, so he even wants to kill Concubine Liu in public." She said it in a firm tone.
Jiang Yuanxing immediately had someone cover her mouth. He held his forehead and kept thinking about a solution. "Shut up about what happened today."
This incident must not cause any reputational damage to the young prince.
Just as he was about to take the little prince away, he heard the child's heart-wrenching cry.
The little guy's face was full of fear. He was already feeling uncomfortable, and now his whole body was in pain.
The smell of blood rushed into the little guy's nostrils. Yan Chengyu's face turned pale and he vomited with a "wow".
But he didn't eat anything, and now he can vomit all kinds of acid.
Your Highness!
Jiang Yuanxing rushed over and kept wiping the dirt off the little prince.
Xie Ruyi came back to her senses, pushed Jiang Yuanxing away, held the child on her shoulders, and patted the little guy's back with her palms empty.
"Hurry and call the imperial physician! Call His Majesty!"
She was already extremely anxious. What was the point of wiping it off? It would choke the child to death. Seeing Jiang Yuanxing dumbfounded, Xie Ruyi yelled.
The tranquility of the entire imperial garden was broken, and the cries of Concubine Liu continued to make Xie Ruyi irritated and angry.
Xie Ruyi's face changed when he felt an astonishing heat coming from his palm.
When she saw the blisters on the little prince's neck, she immediately collapsed to the ground.
-------------------------------------
Emperor Mingxi stabilized the situation with lightning speed.
His child got smallpox...
All those who came into contact with the young prince had to close the palace gates. Emperor Mingxi felt heartbroken.
The highest position! The highest position!
He slammed the table so hard that his hand bled.
Damn it, these people deserve to die!
The Queen Mother and the Empress have already rushed over. The little prince has not been feeling well these past few days.
As the New Year is approaching, they are busy planning the harem banquet, and the surrounding small countries will come to pay tribute.
So neither the Queen nor the Queen Mother saw the little prince.
