Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role

If the empress was still rational before the confinement, she would definitely understand that the emperor wanted to train her son. However, she had lost her former sobriety in her recent fight with Concubine Li, so when she heard the news, she gritted her teeth and said, "My son, your mother will not let you go."

Isn't Chao Hua still in there? Just let her do her job. It's better for her to die there and never come back.

What if something happens to her beloved baby? Although Concubine Li doesn't have a son yet, with the emperor's daily favor, there will surely be news soon.

When the queen thought of this, she was filled with hatred. Concubine Rou died and the younger Concubine Li came.

It was so hateful. She had finally defeated Chaohua's mother and trampled Chaohua under her feet. She didn't expect that she would be defeated one day and the power of the palace would be taken away by Concubine Li.

The queen had no intention of blaming her son at all. If it weren't for the idiot eldest prince who took the initiative to expose himself, Chaohua's reputation would have been ruined by now.

After all, it would not sound good to say that I coveted my brother's life-saving medicine out of personal selfishness.

Maybe it would even make the emperor furious and punish Princess Chaohua.

But since it has already happened, there is nothing she can do but accept it. Thinking that Shen Lingruo is still in Qingjiang City, the queen feels happy.

If only she could die like her mother.

"My son, don't cover yourself with quilts when you rest tonight." Although the queen felt a little sorry for her son's health, she still hardened her heart.

After all, compared to going to Qingjiang City which is full of plague and contracting a plague which has no cure, it is better to stay in the palace and save the emperor with a minor cold.

"But father..." The eldest prince hesitated. The emperor seemed to want to send him very much. If he didn't go, his father would probably be angry.

"You are sick, he can't force you to go, just listen to your mother and do as she says. As for your father, I have my own plans."

The queen frowned slightly, and the wrinkle at the corner of her eye deepened.

The eldest prince did as the queen had said that night when he returned. As expected, he caught a cold the next day.

The emperor in the Yangxin Palace was just about to stamp his seal and let the eldest prince go to Qingjiang City to provide disaster relief, when suddenly news came that the eldest prince had caught a cold yesterday and was unlikely to recover for a while.

The emperor fumbled with the memorial with his thumb, which was wearing a jade ring, and there was an ambiguous look in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, how about sending other ministers to handle this matter?"

The emperor's eyes were profound. This matter was originally intended to be passed on to the eldest prince to win the support and prestige of the people, but this happened instead.

"Your Majesty, the Queen requests an audience." A eunuch came in and knelt on the ground respectfully.

"Let her in."

"Your Majesty, are you worried about the Qingjiang City incident?" The Queen secretly glanced at the Emperor's expression and found that he had a bit of pressure and worry on his face.

"I originally wanted to let Mu'er go." The emperor looked at the queen deeply.

Why didn’t the eldest prince get sick earlier or later, but caught a cold the day after he went to Kunning?

The queen tried to remain calm. As long as she refused to admit it, the emperor would have no way to deal with her.

"Your Majesty, I have a choice."

"tell me the story."

"Princess Chaohua."

"Nonsense!" The emperor was so majestic without even getting angry that the queen quickly knelt down.

"I have a reason for recommending Chaohua. First, she is in the city and can handle things on behalf of the emperor before other officials. Second, as a princess, she shares the same worries as the people and can better comfort the hearts of the victims." The queen did not dare to breathe, because she knew that the emperor was angry.

The only sound in the Hall of Mental Cultivation was the silence in which one could hear breathing. The palace servants all lowered their heads, not daring to make any big movements.

"Get up. I agree." The emperor thought for a long time and finally agreed. It was originally to build momentum for the eldest prince. Since the queen thinks so, let Chaohua do it.

Firstly, she is a woman, but she is too sharp and attracts jealousy. Secondly, there is the reason mentioned by the queen.

The emperor drafted an edict, asking Princess Chaohua to be in charge of the matter. At the same time, he sent several ministers who supported the eldest prince to transport supplies and assist in the handling of the matter.

Everyone in the court was shocked. Was the emperor confused? Why did he let a woman like the princess handle this matter? This was not against the rules.

However, the Empress Dowager and her followers, who were rumored to have a bad relationship with Princess Chaohua, insisted on this matter and were willing to engage in a debate with many scholars for it.

In the end, they had to let Princess Chaohua handle the matter. The Queen's followers certainly had no good intentions, because the Queen was afraid that the Emperor would see through her thoughts, and was also afraid that the Emperor would force the eldest prince to go. Furthermore, they could also let officials who supported the eldest prince go there to gain some credit.

She didn't believe that Chaohua, a woman, could handle this matter well. She was afraid that she would be laughed at by the whole world.

At that time, the officials representing the eldest prince could also gain some benefits by handling this matter, and it would be best if Chaohua could die in that city.

Including Chaohua's mother's family, they are all a bunch of eyesores.

The queen thought everything would be beautiful, but she didn't know that her hopes would be dashed.

At this time in Qingjiang City, Governor Lin followed Shen Lingruo's instructions in an orderly manner, and the speed of infection slowed down. Compared with the statistics in the past, it was much better.

Even so, Governor Lin still had a worried face. The snow disaster was compounded by an epidemic, and the antidote for the epidemic had not yet been developed. This year's winter came earlier than usual, and there was a shortage of winter supplies. Many people had frozen to death. He had tried his best to rescue them, but it was still a drop in the bucket.

"Sir, something bad has happened." The subordinate came running in, crawling.

"Why are you so flustered? Tell me, what's the matter?" Governor Lin stroked his beard.

"Madam Lin, your mother has also been infected with the disease." The subordinate said anxiously.

Madam Lin is so old and she has been infected with an epidemic. There is currently no medicine to cure the disease. She can only ask the doctor to prescribe some fever-reducing prescriptions and endure it.

"How could this be?" Governor Lin almost fainted. What if I can't make it?

Madam Lin was infected by the nanny around her. The Lin Mansion was already under lockdown and Governor Lin rarely went back. Who would have known that the nanny wanted to take some warm items to support her family outside, but after going out, she was not careful and was infected with the disease, which she also passed on to the old lady.

"The doctor has already arrived." said the subordinate.

Having said that, Governor Lin was still very worried. After all, among those infected with the disease, the younger ones would be better off and would not have difficulty surviving, but the older ones would almost certainly die.

He hurried back home, used the method taught by Shen Lingruo to disinfect all his clothes, and then went to the old lady's courtyard.

I thought I would see my frail old mother lying on the bed, but I didn't expect to see Old Madam Lin, with a rosy face, wrapped in a thick blanket, lying in the sunny place in the house basking in the sun.
