Everyone's hearts were in their throats.

Duke Xu said, "But what is it, Your Majesty, please explain?"

The emperor glanced at Eunuch Li.

Eunuch Li said, "Prince Xu will be removed from the throne. Duke Xu will be fined five years' salary, and the eldest princess will be given two of the Duke's Mansion's ancestral antidote pills."

The Duke's wife said: "If the Crown Prince takes the throne, then there will be no other children in our family."

The Emperor said, "But this is already the best solution. Otherwise, why not let my sister decide for herself?"

Duke Xu said, "No need, I agree. Someone go to my private vault and get the pills."

Jin Yuyao knew that the pill must be something extraordinary when she saw the constipated look on the Duke's face.

Nanny Yu took the pill.

The eldest princess said, "Since the emperor has nothing else to do, I will take my leave now. You can take Rui'er with you."

After saying that, the guards entered the room and took Feng Rui's body away.

Duke Xu said, "Your Majesty, Feng Rui is also a member of our Duke Xu's Mansion. How can we let the eldest princess take her away?"

The emperor said, "Otherwise, do you think your son can still survive?"

Duke Xu stopped talking and watched Feng Rui being taken away.

The eldest princess turned and walked out.

Jin Yuyao followed behind her.

Unexpectedly, she turned around and looked at Duke Xu and said, "Is this how things are in your family? You can't even afford the medical fee? The county lady has been busy for a long time just now."

Duke Xu said, "I'm so sorry, my lady. I forgot so many things. Please don't blame me."

After saying that, he sent someone to get it.

The medical fee was quickly paid.

When Jin Yuyao saw the five hundred taels, she accepted it and left with the princess.

She looked at the door and saw that there was no carriage from the general's mansion, so she wondered how to get back.

At this time, the eldest princess said in the carriage: "County Master, I will take you back."

Jin Yuyao was just about to say that she would find a way.

Yu Ma Ma, who was standing by, said, "Please come up quickly, it's too late and there are no carriages. Come up quickly."

"Thank you very much"

Jin Yuyao got on the carriage.

Sitting next to Nanny Yu.

No one spoke as the carriage started moving.

The princess seemed to be completely exhausted at this time: "I didn't expect Rui'er to die in the Xu family. I told her not to give birth to a child, but she didn't listen.

Did the county lady and her husband give birth to a boy or a girl?"

Jin Yuyao said: "It's a boy. But..."

"But what happened?"

Jin Yuyao said, "If the child is not full-term, it might be difficult to raise."

The eldest princess said bitterly, "This is all their retribution."

She took the small box, opened it, took out a detoxification pill and handed it to Jin Yuyao.

Jin Yuyao didn't know what it meant for a moment.

The princess said: "You take it"

Only then did Jin Yuyao take it.

"These are the only three the Xu family has. I'm giving you one so you can study its composition and see if you can make some."

Jin Yuyao said happily: "I'll try it, thank you, Princess."

"You don't have to be so polite with me."

When they arrived at the general's mansion, Jin Yuyao got off the carriage and put the pill into the space.

The eldest princess' carriage left.

Jin Yuyao returned to the general's mansion, where Qin Mamahao, Wenzhu and Baizhi were waiting for him.

Mother Qin came out and said, "Madam, why do you look so tired? How is the princess?"

Jin Yuyao said: "The person is gone."

Wen Zhu said from the side: "The princess is really stupid. When she got married, I told him not to have children, but he insisted on having one. Now you think he has risked his life. What will happen if he leaves behind a child?"

Jin Yuyao said, "I'm afraid that child won't make it either."

Mother Qin said: "Yes, it's too young, I think it will not survive."

Jin Yuyao said: "I'm too tired today, I'm going back to rest first."

Mother Qin said, "Madam, please eat something and then go to rest."

Jin Yuyao said, "No need."

She went back to her room, lay on the bed and refused to move.

The emperor rested for a while at Duke Xu's mansion before returning to the palace.

After the emperor left, Duke Xu had the young master carried back.

Just sat there without saying a word.

The Duke's wife cried and said, "What do you think we should do? If we lose the title of Crown Prince, what will happen to our Duke's Mansion?"

Duke Xu looked up at her and said, "Isn't there still that child?"

The Duke's wife said, "That child is still too young. Who knows what will happen to him in the future? Besides, that child..."

Duke Xu said: "This is the best solution. No young lady in the capital will be willing to marry him in the future."

"so what should I do now?"

"Who told you to marry that princess back then? I didn't agree at the time. You and your son both agreed, otherwise it wouldn't have turned out like this."

The Duke's wife said, "I originally thought that since he was the eldest princess's daughter, our child would be under the eldest princess's care."

"You're just out of your mind. Do you think the Princess is easy to mess with? You agreed to the Princess' request, so you should have carried it out. You were just too impatient. If you had waited a few more years, and let someone else have a child, then the mother and the child would have been registered under her name, and things wouldn't have ended up like this."

The Duke's wife regretted, "Who could have imagined this would happen? It's too late to say anything now."

"How ignorant."

At this time a maid ran in hurriedly.

"Madam is not well."

Duke Xu felt his eyelids twitching: "What's wrong? Can't you just talk properly?"

The little maid said anxiously: "The young master is having difficulty breathing now."

Duke Xu thought of the young master and wondered who the young master was. Only then did he remember which child he was.

Then he stood up and said, "Have you called the doctor?"

The maid said, "I've sent someone to invite her."

He stood up and walked towards the yard.

When I got there, the doctor just arrived.

They gathered around and watched the doctor take the little guy's pulse. The little guy was breathing very rapidly.

The doctor took a long time to withdraw his hand and said, "I'm afraid there's nothing I can do. This child is born with a deficiency and won't be born full term. I'm afraid..."

Duke Xu said, "What should we do? You must do your best to treat him. You should prescribe some medicine."

The court doctor nodded.

The court doctor prescribed medicine helplessly.

Duke Xu asked someone to bring medicine and asked the maid to give it to the young master.

The Duke said, "I'm leaving now. You stay here and take good care of her today."

The Duke's wife nodded and looked at the child.

After the child drank the medicine, the Duke's wife saw that he was stable.

She was very tired after a whole day and was very sleepy.

She fell asleep next to the child.

The maid also fell asleep leaning against the side.

The next morning, the maid woke up and went to see the child in bed.

I was shocked when I saw it.

I couldn't help but check the child's breathing.

She screamed in surprise at this discovery.

The scream woke up the Duke's wife.

"Why are you yelling so early in the morning?"

The maid pointed inside the bed in horror.

The Duke's wife was furious and said, "If you have something to say, just tell me what it is."

"Young Master...Young Master"

The Duke's wife became angry when she saw the maid and looked towards the bed.

Seeing this, her face turned pale and she said, "Go...go and call the Duke over quickly."
