Chapter 176 Jingse is seriously ill
On this day, Ruyi was leaning on the couch and reading a book lazily, while Hailan was carefully embroidering the "Traveling in Spring Mountains" sent by Ruyi Pavilion to pass the time.
Rong Pei came to report that Princess Jingse was not feeling well, and several imperial physicians could not come up with a conclusion after consultation.
As Jingse's aunt, Concubine Cheng was extremely anxious. So she went to the Yangxin Palace to ask the emperor to send for the imperial physician Qi to see her.
"Is he really sick?" Ruyi didn't believe it.
But Rong Pei frowned and nodded, "Imperial Doctor Qi said so himself. The illness is not mild."
Ruyi asked calmly, "Do you know the reason?"
Rong Pei shook her head. "Imperial Doctor Qi is tight-lipped, and the Princess Palace is full of the Emperor's people, so we can't find out."
Hailan stopped sewing and said impatiently, "What is Princess Jingse doing again?
When she was originally confined by the emperor to her home, she would be sick for three days and in pain for two days. Now, he simply called in the imperial physician Qi.
This is another way to seek the emperor's mercy."
Ruyi smiled and turned the pages of the book without raising her head, "Since you know, just ignore her.
After all, she is the emperor's bloodline. No matter how unruly and willful she is, she has the emperor's support behind her.
As long as she doesn't come to harm us, let her do whatever she wants."
Keeping Jingse is still useful.
Ruyi knew that after Jingse came of age, the Khorchin tribe would come to ask for the princess in marriage.
If Jingse is gone by then, the next person to be sent out to marry will either be Queen Mother Hengti, Jing?? or Jingshu.
Although Jingshu is still young, there have been marriages between princesses in their teens and Mongolian nobles in their sixties or seventies since ancient times.
If the Khorchin tribe insisted on waiting for Jingshu to grow up, it would be troublesome.
Even if there was only the slightest possibility, Ruyi was unwilling to let her daughter marry far away in Mongolia.
As for Hengti, she was the empress dowager's precious daughter. Why add to the trouble if you can avoid it?
So Jingse’s marriage is settled.
But Ruyi would not let her marry comfortably. When the time comes, there will be an extra "big gift" presented to her.
Hai Lan couldn't calm down, so she simply dropped her needlework and said unhappily, "Sister, the last time Chengpin was promoted to concubine, it was obviously Jingse who helped.
The two of them are related. If they join forces to deal with you, have you thought about how to deal with it?"
Ruyi’s eyes darkened.
Although Concubine Cheng temporarily lost the support of court officials, she could still get some help from Fucha Fuheng when he returned triumphantly.
Ruyi was only a woman in the harem after all. She understood that if a country lost its military power, it would be in tatters.
Fu Cha Fu Heng has military talent and cannot be moved.
Fortunately, this person clearly distinguishes between public and private affairs. In the previous life, when Ruyi was crowned as the empress, it was Fucha Fuheng who was the envoy.
Keeping him will do more good than harm.
Jingse's illness lasted for half a month.
Imperial Physician Qi stayed in the side hall day and night, never leaving, and only then was Jingse able to keep her alive.
And Concubine Cheng served day and night without taking off her clothes. The emperor was moved and became more friendly to Concubine Cheng.
The emperor's originally planned tour was delayed for a long time due to Jingse's illness.
Only after Jingse's condition improved a little did the emperor feel at ease to leave the palace and hurried to Songshan and Luoyang.
A few days later, at dawn, Ruyi was still asleep when she suddenly heard a small knock on the door.
Ruyi stood up with a tired look on her face, and then she heard Rong Pei come to report, "My dear, Concubine Feng's pregnancy started at the hour of Yin, and she has been born now.
But the dragon fetus was in the wrong position and could not be born. Concubine Feng was about to collapse, and someone from Qixiang Palace came to ask the master to make a decision.
"It's happening now?" Ruyi was a little confused. "Didn't she say that the due date is in the middle of next month? How can it happen now when it's not even the full month yet?"
As Rong Pei helped Ruyi put on her clothes, she said, "It is said that Concubine Feng was greedy tonight and ate too much at dinner. She felt a little unwell, so she drank the pregnancy-maintaining medicine and went to bed early.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, blood flowed from Concubine Feng's bed, waking up the palace maid who was on guard. Only then did she discover that Concubine Feng had already fainted.
In order to save the dragon fetus, Imperial Doctor Lu took the risk of administering an injection to induce labor, and Concubine Feng had no choice but to give birth. "
Ruyi suppressed the surprise in her eyes and said in a deep voice, "Doctor Lu, this is a temporary solution, and it is not wrong.
It's just that the emperor has gone to Songshan and Luoyang to pay respect to his ancestors and has not yet returned to the palace. If this matter is not handled well, I am afraid that this imperial concubine will also be to blame.
Sanbao, you go to the Imperial Hospital and keep watch. If Concubine Feng needs any medicine, no matter what it is, just give it to her.
Liuying, take my name card to the Princess Palace and ask Dr. Qi to come out. I will go to Qixiang Palace with Rong Pei first."
It was strange and sudden.
Ruyi didn't bother to think about the cause and omissions of the whole incident. She put on her shoes and hurriedly got on the sedan chair and rushed to Qixiang Palace.
Inside the Princess Palace.
Jingse was leaning on the couch, eating fruit with a rosy face, and she didn't look sick at all.
"I haven't even reached the age of marriage yet, and I don't know where the emperor got all the reasons for the strict separation of men and women, and he insisted on sending away all the guards around me.
Fortunately, Empress Cheng understands me.
Thanks to Qin Sang who is by your side. Otherwise, I am afraid that my illness cannot be hidden from Doctor Qi. "
Concubine Cheng sat beside her, grinding the medicine powder for her personally, and said softly, "I am the princess' aunt. How can I not help the princess if she asks for help?"
Jingse chuckled and said, "Madam Cheng, do you still need to pretend like this in front of me? In the final analysis, we are just getting what we need.
If you can help me get rid of that annoying Imperial Consort, I naturally wouldn't mind helping you ascend to the throne.
At least you have some connection with the Empress Dowager. If you become the Empress, the Fucha family will be more glorious, and the Empress Dowager can rest in peace."
While the two were chatting and laughing in harmony, Yan Cao walked in leisurely and bowed, "Master, Liuying, who is beside the Imperial Concubine, is here.
It is said that the Imperial Noble Consort ordered that Concubine Feng of Qixiang Palace was having trouble giving birth, and she wanted to borrow Imperial Doctor Qi to take care of her. "
Before Chengpin could even open her mouth, Jingse snorted frivolously, "Get out.
Who the hell is Concubine Feng? Is she worthy of having Doctor Qi see the worthless life of a bastard in her belly?
Does the Imperial Concubine think that the illness of this Princess Gulun is unimportant?"
Yan Cao stood there in embarrassment, lowering his head and saying nothing.
Jingse's attitude became even more domineering. "Even if the Imperial Concubine herself comes, I will just beat her out with a stick. Don't show any mercy.
Just say that I am sick and weak and cannot live without Doctor Qi. If the Imperial Concubine insists on taking Doctor Qi away, you are forcing me to die."
Chengpin's hands, which were grinding the medicine, paused for a moment, and a silent smile appeared at the corners of her lips.
This princess is easier to control than she thought.
Not long after, someone else came to the door of the princess' palace.
Jingse said impatiently, "Didn't I tell you to kick the Imperial Concubine out for me? How dare she, a concubine, break into my bedroom?"
Yancao's expression became even uglier. "Princess, who is the person outside..."
"Kill whoever it is! If you disturb my rest, I'll see if you can afford to pay with your lives!"
Jingse was arrogant and irritable, and actually threw the fruit in his hand directly at the Yancao at the door.
Yancao dodged subconsciously, and the fruit hit the head of the person who came.
