Drunk Bamboo

"My queen, the prince has entered the palace."

In Fu'an Palace, Xuan'er went into the Buddhist hall to report to the Imperial Concubine.

The Imperial Concubine opened her eyes with a hint of displeasure.

"Why is he entering the palace at this time? Didn't His Majesty order that no one can enter the palace casually?"

Xuan'er answered cautiously: "Your Highness...used the Peony Jade Plate."

At this sensitive moment, she knew that Prince Wen's casual entry into the palace and his use of the peony jade pendant would definitely displease the Queen.

But King Wen insisted, and it was useless for her to try to stop him.

Only then did I bite the bullet and report it.

The Royal Concubine opened her eyes wide with anger, "Is he crazy?"

There was a plague in Zhongdu, and the emperor was on edge. He had spies everywhere, and anyone who dared to act rashly would be suspected.

If you accidentally make the emperor angry, all your efforts will be in vain.

Not only that, if they were found out about what they were doing secretly and ruined her plan, they would be guilty of the death penalty.

Hua Qinming, who was outside the door, didn't hear any movement for a long time and knew what had happened.

He knelt outside the temple and raised his voice so that those inside could hear him.

"Mother, I beg to see you. Qi'er has the plague. Please allow Gao Fengyu to leave the palace to treat Qi'er!"

He did not participate in this plan, but he knew that the plague in Zhongdu City was not a simple plague, but a conspiracy between his mother and Gao Yin.

Now, he knew even more that there was someone behind this conspiracy, and this person coveted the highest power position in the palace.

Over the years, everything my mother did was for this man.

Hua Qinming has no right to judge what his mother has done, as his mother has given him birth and raised him.

All he could do was keep silent, not ask questions, and not get involved.

From the other side of the door, a cold and indifferent voice came:

"Gao Fengyu is secretly developing a medicine. How can we disrupt his thoughts for one person?"

Hua Qinming was stunned.

He begged, "Mother, Qi'er is pregnant. Please save your grandson!"

The Imperial Concubine's eyes trembled slightly, and she was silent for a moment, "The prescription has not yet been issued, and no one can be saved."

The only glimmer of hope in Hua Qinming's eyes was extinguished by this sentence.

He raised his head, hoping that his mother would open the door and see his son.

Look at the desire and desperation on his face at this moment.

Hua Qinming's eyes were filled with coldness. "I only ask you to give me medicine to save Qi'er and her unborn child. I will never let anyone in the palace who finds out about this go. Don't worry, mother."

The words were said so bluntly, but the imperial concubine remained unmoved.

"The plague is spreading all over Zhongdu. You should leave the palace earlier and spend more time with Qi'er."

"Mother concubine!"

The door is always closed.

Hua Qinming stood up slowly, swaying his staggering body, and put his hand on the door frame.

"Mother... who is more important than your grandson?"

The Imperial Concubine shouted angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Hua Qinming smiled coldly, "I am talking nonsense. I shouldn't have come to ask Mother for help. From childhood to adulthood, Mother has never given me anything I asked for."

He did everything his mother asked for.

He originally thought that he was not good enough and was not as healthier than other princes, so his mother was so strict with him, just to get his father's attention and gain his father's favor.

Later he thought that his mother did not love his father enough, so she did not love the child she had with him.

Recently, he suddenly realized that he was just making things easier for others.

There is always someone in my mother's heart who is more important than anyone else.

Hua Qinming was completely disappointed.

The imperial concubine walked to the door, gritted her teeth, and did not open it.

"you……"

Before Hua Qinming turned around and left, he said, "Mother, you were able to deceive the people of Zhongdu City ten years ago, but you may not be able to deceive them ten years later."

"Maybe someone will use these ten years to develop a cure."

The imperial concubine slammed the door angrily, "You are crazy!"

He smiled nonchalantly, "It's not that I'm crazy, it's that my mother hasn't woken up yet."

Hua Qinming left resolutely.

Xuan'er whispered: "My queen, the princess is pregnant, should we..."

"Asshole! No one can stop or destroy the plan between me and him! She is just a princess. If she doesn't have one, I can marry her again. If she doesn't have a child, I can have another one!" The Royal Concubine glared at him angrily. "As long as we succeed, the whole Rao Kingdom will be ours. What else can't we get?"

"A woman's kindness!"

Xuan'er begged for mercy, "Please forgive me, Madam! I know I was wrong."

After leaving Fu'an Palace, Xia'er followed closely behind.

"Your Majesty, let's go ask Gao Yin for the antidote. If he doesn't give it to us, I will search his house and I will definitely find it. If the toxicity of the Impermanence Powder is not resolved in time, the princess and the baby in her belly will be in danger."

Hua Qinming's eyes were deep, "Without the order from my mother, he will not hand over the antidote."

The poison made by my mother has yet to be cured.

This is also the confidence that allowed her and Gao Yin to do such a bold and shameless thing to cover up the truth.

Xia Er proposed an idea, "Please ask other doctors in the palace. The Crown Prince and the Princess were treated by a doctor named Qi Zhen last night. His Majesty has sealed off the East Palace. Your Highness, please ask His Majesty to let Doctor Qi leave the palace to save the Princess?"

She knew how important the princess and the baby in her belly were to the prince.

So, as long as she can do it, she will do it regardless of her own safety.

Hua Qinming stopped, thought for a moment, and went directly to Qingning Palace.

"Qier is sick too?" The emperor looked surprised.

"Your Majesty, I am here to ask you to allow the Imperial Physician Qi to leave the palace to diagnose Qi'er." Hua Qinming bowed, his face full of anxiety.

"Imperial Physician of Qi? Why not Gao Fengyu?" The emperor's tone was intriguing, his hawk-like eyes staring straight at Hua Qinming.

"I know that Gao Fengyu is going to secretly develop a prescription in the palace. Besides, my father and mother are both in the palace. I dare not trouble Gao Fengyu."

"I'm afraid that Imperial Physician Qi can't leave the palace. Yesterday, he failed to treat Lin'er and Yi'er, so I punished him with thirty strokes of the cane. He has been in a coma ever since." The emperor retracted his gaze and said, "Qi'er's illness cannot be delayed. I will send Gao Fengyu to go with you."

"Father..." Hua Qinming looked up.

"There is no time to lose, go and arrange it." The emperor has already ordered Eunuch Dong to go and do the work.

Hua Qinming couldn't refuse any longer, "Thank you, father."

After he left, the emperor's eyes became gloomy again.

As long as they wanted Qi Zhen, did they want to trick him out of the palace and then harm him?

With so many things mixed up, the emperor trusted no one.

When Xia Er saw him coming out, she asked hurriedly:

"My Lord, have you invited the imperial physician?"

"Father asked Gao Yin to leave the palace."

Xia Er was worried, "Your Majesty really values ​​the princess. But..."

Hua Qinming said, "Take Gao Yin back home, and I will go out of the palace to find a doctor."

Xia Er: "My Lord, it's dangerous outside."

Hua Qinming: "Did you see any streets in chaos during your trip by car? Did you see anyone panicking and helpless?"

Xia'er didn't know what it meant and didn't know how to answer.

Hua Qinming had a sullen face and walked quickly out of the palace.

He wanted to verify whether his guess was correct.
