It is a consensus in the harem that Concubine Xian has a close relationship with the Empress Dowager.

It is said that Concubine Xian and the Empress Dowager share the same hobby and both like to worship Buddha.

Aunt Chun walked up to Yu Suisui and whispered, "Empress Xiu, the Empress Dowager asks you to come in." The Queen was almost crazy and kept kneeling on the ground begging the Emperor to go to the imperial mausoleum to celebrate the anniversary of the late Emperor.

But the emperor's decree has already been issued. Why can't the queen understand that praying to gods and Buddhas at this time is more effective than asking the emperor to go to the imperial mausoleum directly?

Yu Suisui nodded slightly and followed Aunt Chun in.

Concubine Gao's starry eyes glanced at Concubine Xian who was painting the mural nearby. The palace maid beside her had just gone out for a while.

When Concubine Xiu said that, she probably had some other meaning, and Concubine Gao lowered her eyes again to hide her thoughts.

As soon as Yu Suisui entered, the Queen immediately stood up and tried to attack Yu Suisui. Seeing this, Qianlong hurriedly hugged the Queen and whispered, "Queen!"

Qianlong frowned, his face dark as water could drip, "Queen, calm down."

"Your Majesty!" The Queen let out a shrill roar. Even at this time, the Emperor was still protecting her. If she hadn't instigated the Emperor not to go to the Imperial Mausoleum, how could her Yonglian have gotten such a disease?

It's all her fault!

She is the culprit of all this.

The empress dowager frowned, glanced at the queen, and asked Yu Susui to stand beside her, "I just heard that you said Yonglian looked like a child with a fright?" Yonglian is in this state now, and I'm afraid it will only last for two days.

His eyes were distracted.

Yu Suisui glanced at the Empress Dowager with some fear, then quickly looked away. She said timidly, "To answer your question, Your Majesty, I heard from the old maid that some children who are startled may suffer from palpitations and even convulsions."

The more Yu Suisui spoke, the lower her voice became. "I was just thinking that the Second Prince's illness seems a bit similar, but..."

Seeing that she was afraid, the empress dowager patted her hands and said, "Good child, don't be afraid, tell me slowly. I'm just asking." There was no other way now. The empress was in this state, and I was afraid that if something happened to Yonglian, she would hate the emperor to death.

Empress Xian just sent someone to remind her that Concubine Xiu mentioned a child's spirit.

Yu Suisui knew very well that the reason for letting her in at this time was that the emperor and the empress could not fall out. It was obvious that the empress had now regarded those rumors as a lifeline. If she came in and said something, Yonglian would be gone.

That was her fault, of course.

The imperial physician in the room, upon hearing Yu Sui's thanks, refrained from speaking, obviously not wanting to take the blame.

The second prince was originally fine, but he found out that he had heart palpitations and that they would accompany him for the rest of his life.

The Second Prince was already precocious, and he could never accept such a blow.

Yu Susui lowered her head, too scared to speak. Qianlong couldn't care less about her at this time. He had to use up most of his energy trying to control the queen.

"Is there any way to treat children's mental fright?" asked the empress dowager. She had just heard from the palace maid that incense ash water could be used.

Yu Suisui bit her lip and looked at the empress dowager fearfully, "Empress Dowager, I...I know I was wrong, and I won't talk nonsense anymore." At this time, if she was too proactive, the empress dowager would definitely be suspicious.

Seeing Yu Suisui like this, the Queen Mother took her hand and said, "Xiupin, you are a good child. I am just asking, you were also rescued by the Queen before. Can you bear to see the Queen like this?"

As she spoke, the empress dowager pointed at the empress who was standing aside and almost insane. She was hitting and biting Qianlong.

The empress dowager saw the look of pity that flashed across Yu Sui's eyes.

"I know that you are a good child, but if this method doesn't work, it's my fault and it has nothing to do with you." The Queen Mother said this to mean that it was unsuccessful and she was still Concubine Xiu.

But she could not guarantee more, such as Qianlong's favor and the Queen's hatred.

All she can give is to guarantee her current life.

Yu Suisui bit her lip and trembled, "Empress Dowager, I...I have only heard about it, but I haven't seen it. I just wanted to show off, I don't really understand these things."

As he was about to kneel down on the ground to admit his mistake, the empress dowager grabbed Yu Suisui's wrist and held it tightly, "Good boy, just say it. It's my business whether you do it or not." Concubine Xiu was indeed a bit spiritual.

Yu Suisui secretly went to see the Empress again, her eyes already misty. She trembled, "Empress Dowager, I...I just heard that if a child is frightened, you can use incense ash water to calm the evil."

After saying this, she immediately explained, "I didn't mean to express the late emperor's intention."

"I just heard that the child was frightened and encountered something unclean. I absolutely have no intention of telling..."

"Good girl, I know, do you know how to do this?" The Queen Mother was more concerned about how to do this.

Whether it is useful or not, you will know it only after trying it.

"Your Highness, this is only effective for children who are frightened. It has no effect at other times." Yu Suisui emphasized, "And I only know the basics of what the old lady said."

"Where is the old nanny now?" asked the Queen Mother.

Yu Suisui: "Last year, I was seriously ill. Less than two months after I was moved out of the palace, I went to see the Buddha." She wanted to die, but quickly changed her words. Now in the situation in the room, if she said these two words, she was afraid that the queen would break free from Qianlong's control.

I just caught a glimpse of Qianlong's bloody hand, which must have been bitten by the queen out of control.

The Queen Mother was a little disappointed, but she still asked, "Will you be?"

"I only know the steps, but I haven't done them."

It's good that we'll meet. The Empress Dowager called Qianlong over. It was only a distance of ten steps, and Qianlong walked with some heaviness.

The queen had her mouth covered by Qianlong's hand and could only make a whimpering sound.

The Empress Dowager took a deep breath and said, "Emperor, there is nothing else we can do now. How about trying the method of treating a frightened child? Have Concubine Xiu make a bowl of incense ash water and try it?"

"Let me say this in advance, if it works, everyone will be happy. If it doesn't work, Your Majesty, don't vent your anger on Concubine Xiu." The Empress Dowager softened her heart. She saw Yu Suisui lowering his head and trembling all over.

Qianlong looked at Concubine Xiu intently and was about to say that these were nonsense, but the resentment in the queen's eyes immediately made Yu Suisui stagger.

"Mother, there's no need." Qianlong said again, "Just let the court order Yonglian to receive treatment." There was no need for Concubine Xiu to be involved in this matter.

The Empress Dowager was a little surprised when she saw Qianlong's refusal. "Never mind. I was just confused. I believed such words."
