Becoming a widow for the sake of good fortune? The short-lived prince lived a hundred years

The Seventh Prince touched his face, gnashing his teeth in pain. He was also indignant: "That's a lunatic, he beats up anyone he sees. This crazy woman deserves to be beaten to death. Father, you have to make the decision for us!"

The Seventh Princess' eyes were filled with tears. "Father, I've never been beaten in my life, but that crazy woman slapped me twice. Wuuwuwu, Father, it hurts so much!"

Yan Xining said coldly: "Since I have married Prince An, Prince An is my heaven. No matter who harms him, I will not let him have an easy time, even if it costs me my life!"

Emperor Yongxi glanced at Yan Xining, who was standing beside Chu Jinxun with one hand tightly grasping his sleeve, and his eyes deepened slightly.

At this time, the chief eunuch trotted in and said, "Your Majesty, the imperial physician has brought the medicine. Can His Royal Highness Prince An take it now?"

"allow!"

Imperial Physician Qi hurried over with the medicine boy.

The medicine was already warm when it was brought to him. He carefully scooped up a spoonful and brought it to Chu Jinxun's mouth, but Chu Jinxun closed his eyes tightly. After he fed him the spoonful of medicine, the medicine flowed down the corners of his mouth.

Feed it again and it will flow out again.

Yan Xining said: "Let me do it!"

She took the medicine bowl carefully, but Prince An's condition did not improve and she still couldn't feed him the medicine.

Yan Xining's voice trembled as she pleaded, "Your Highness, you have to take the medicine. You have to take the medicine to get better. If you don't get better, you will be scolded by them. Do you really want to be a short-lived ghost? We just got married, and everything was fine. How did it suddenly become like this? This is all my fault. If I hadn't married you, you wouldn't have to come to the palace to thank the emperor today. If you hadn't come to the palace to thank the emperor, the emperor wouldn't have been so kind as to allow us to come to the wine tasting. If you hadn't come here, you wouldn't have been scolded and kicked, and you wouldn't have been so angry that you fainted."

It really makes those who see it cry and those who hear it feel sad.

The emperor's face darkened again.

Yan Xining's pleading was obviously of no use, and Prince An still couldn't drink the medicine.

"Why can't the medicine be injected?" Imperial Physician Qi took the patient's pulse again.

Yan Xining said on the side: "When the Eighth Prince kicked him away earlier, was it because of internal injuries?"

Imperial Physician Qi was startled. He carefully felt the prince's pulse and his eyes suddenly changed. "There is indeed a pulse that shows blood stasis in the chest. Your Highness is already weak, and this injury is not optimistic. The most urgent thing is to make him drink the medicine quickly."

Yan Xining gave him more medicine, but it was still of no use.

Imperial Physician Qi rubbed his hands anxiously. "Your Highness has internal injuries and is now fainting. His mouth is clogged with phlegm and his jaws are clenched. He's hurt and angry, and the anxiety and rage are compounded. What should we do?"

Yan Xining looked as if she understood: "Imperial Physician, what you mean is that His Highness has become withdrawn due to being scolded, and has also suffered internal injuries. He knows that he has little time left, so he would rather die than live?"

Qi Imperial Physician: “…”

Did he mean it?

But Yan Xining was already in tears: "Your Highness, when we left this morning, you said you were feeling much better and that you would grow old with me. You can't go back on your word. Even if you're in poor health and have been beaten and scolded for no reason, you can't give up on treatment! Take the medicine quickly, please!"

I don’t know if her crying and begging were effective, or if Chu Jinxun finally calmed down a little, but he finally drank a spoonful of medicine.

Imperial Physician Qi was overjoyed and fed the medicine to the patient, but Chu Jinxun still did not wake up.

The Emperor spoke in a cold voice, "Prince Jin and Prince Huai, you have disrespected your brother, spoken ill of him, and even dared to use violence. You shall be fined six months' salary and confined to your house for three months! Empress, the Seventh Princess is lacking in etiquette and education in the palace. You shall arrange for two nurses to take care of her. When she learns the rules, you can release her!"

The three of them stood there in shock as if struck by lightning.

They were clearly the ones who were beaten, so why were they the ones who were punished?

The queen, who had been standing quietly to the side, responded, "Yes!"

Emperor Yongxi looked at Yan Xining, who was gently wiping the medicine stains off the corners of Chu Jinxun's mouth, and said slowly, "Prince An is frightened. Go back and take good care of yourself!" He turned to the eunuch chief and ordered, "Reward Prince An and his wife with one hundred rolls of brocade, fifty pieces of jade, ten gold and stone ornaments, ten hu each of pearls and agates, two pairs of jade ruyi, two sets of gold and jade headpieces, and two sets of ruby ​​headpieces!"

Hearing about this reward, several pairs of envious eyes looked over.

The Queen reminded: "Princess An, why don't you thank me?"

Yan Xining seemed to have finally come to his senses, but he looked hesitant and still didn't move, seeming to want to say something but stopped.

Emperor Yongxi narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why, do you think the reward I gave you is too little?"

"It's quite a lot, already a lot!" Yan Xining smiled bitterly and murmured to himself, "Although your reward is generous, we dare not exchange those things for silver!"

emperor:"……"

Everyone's mouths twisted and their eyes squinted when they heard this, and they gasped in fear.

Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the emperor. After receiving the reward, you still complain that you can't exchange it for silver. Are you complaining that you are not dying fast enough?

The Queen's mouth twitched when she heard this. She had never seen anyone so bold, so ignorant of etiquette, and so outspoken.

The emperor was so angry that he laughed: "You actually want to exchange the things I gave you for silver?"

Yan Xining bowed to Emperor Yongxi with a sad look on her face. "Your Majesty, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. After I married in yesterday, I realized what the situation is like at Prince An's Mansion. They can't even come up with money to reward the servants. I've asked around, and Jinxun is in poor health, and the mansion has no other income. Ninety-nine percent of all the money in the mansion has been spent on his medical treatment, and now they're almost broke. Jinxun is in this state now, and he'll have to consult a doctor and ask for medicine when he returns. He might even have to buy some ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum to keep him alive. Every step requires money. I'm ashamed. My biological mother died young, and I didn't have any dowry to pay for it. I was in a hurry and lost my manners in front of Your Majesty. Please forgive me!"

She spoke sincerely, her eyes unwavering, and her clarity was filled with genuine concern.

At this time, Chu Jinxun, who was in a coma, seemed to move a little and his body trembled a few times.

Yan Xining called out immediately, "Jinxun, Jinxun, you're awake? That's great! Yesterday you said you wouldn't leave me behind. Don't go back on your word. Your illness isn't easy to cure, but there must be someone in the world who can. Don't worry, even if I have to sell everything I have, I will definitely find a famous doctor to cure you."

Chu Jinxun didn't wake up.

Emperor Yongxi took a look, but ultimately said nothing. Instead, he turned to the chief eunuch and ordered, "Reward Prince An with a thousand taels of gold!"

This time, Yan Xining's face was filled with genuine gratitude and joy. She immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Father, for the reward!"

Emperor Yongxi wanted to roll his eyes. He used to call him Your Majesty, but now that he had a thousand taels of gold, he changed his address to Father. Princess Lao Wu was a bit greedy for money! But since she was devoted to Lao Wu, he didn't mind.

Then, he saw Yan Xining's face full of anticipation: "Father, does the previous reward also count?"

Emperor Yongxi: “…”

As an emperor, he has the final say. Will he take back the things he has exported as rewards?

How poor is Lao Wu’s family?

Also, what did the fifth daughter-in-law say just now? No dowry?

He beckoned the chief eunuch over and said, "Yushu, Luo Yiyun, didn't you have a dowry?"
