Chapter 225 4 Brother's Concern
The Fourth Prince was unwilling to see Hongfang gradually getting better, but he couldn't take action again in the short term.
Moreover, this requires a different approach. It is well known that Hongfang is allergic to eggs, so naturally no one would dare to feed Hongfang food made with eggs.
But fortunately, no one noticed anything wrong with this action.
It was worth the Fourth Prince's efforts. Although he failed to get rid of the annoying Eleventh Prince, he did suffer a lot.
Hongfang's allergy this time was quite severe. His throat was red and swollen, and he had difficulty swallowing and breathing, not to mention the red spots and pus oozing from his body.
After all this ordeal, Hongfang, who was originally in good health, now has to take medicine all the time and has become much weaker.
It's such a pity for the Fourth Prince. He didn't take any action and let Hongfang die because of an "accident".
what a pity.
But it’s not bad to have a weaker body, because then you can take more measures in the future.
As for now, it is best to plan carefully.
The Fourth Prince's contacts with Cao Qinmo became more frequent, and his ambitions grew.
Unfortunately, Cao Qinmo was unwilling to help him this time.
The Fourth Prince knew that it was because the benefits he had given her now were not big enough.
But it doesn’t matter. Once you succeed, everything will fall into place naturally.
The key to all this is Hongfang.
The Fourth Prince suppressed his anxious heart and the excitement that was rising to his head.
Before taking action, the Fourth Prince still hesitated.
But when he learned that all the imperial doctors had been summoned to Yonghe Palace and that the emperor father would go there in person to accompany them, the only thing left in the fourth prince's mind was the desire to kill Hongfang.
Why was I thrown into the Old Summer Palace when I was young because of my humble background?
Why doesn’t the emperor want to see me?
Why is Hong Fang so loved by the Emperor?
Why?
Why!
Why! ! !
The Fourth Prince was losing his composure more and more, with a mixture of inferiority and ambition. The suppressed devil in his heart was already showing its fangs and claws, ready to break out of the ground.
Yes, the road to that position is paved with blood. If you are soft-hearted now, you will be the one who is trampled into the mud in the future.
If he stopped at this moment, Hongfang would be the grandson of Ulanara, the emperor's favorite son, the future crown prince, and the future emperor.
And who could he be? According to his origin, he couldn't even be a prince, a duke, a beile, or just a beizi?
The young emperor would certainly be afraid of his older brother, and the Fourth Prince couldn't even imagine what kind of end he would end up in.
Even if Hongfang would not do so, Jinpin might not.
The Fourth Prince knew very well how vicious this woman was.
How was it that the pregnant Li Jia Changzai, who didn't want Concubine Jin to have ideas about her child, had her miscarriage caused by Concubine Jin, and she lost favor, and was finally charged with the crime of insanity and sent to the cold palace?
Even her elder sister, who was also from the Ulanara clan, Concubine Jin wished she would die soon. No one knew how many problems there were with the things in the Jingren Palace.
But this queen was also a powerful person. Although she had fallen to such a state, she had managed to survive to this day.
The Fourth Prince felt amused. The women of the Ulanara clan were truly “powerful”.
But even though he felt disgusted, the Fourth Prince knew that he needed Ulanara.
Only by becoming the grandson of Ulanara and changing one's appearance would one be qualified to compete for that position.
A little lack of patience can ruin a big plan, and the Fourth Prince and Concubine Jin also tacitly acted as mother and son on the surface.
In order to succeed next time, the Fourth Prince has been behaving himself lately.
This matter was done secretly and the Fourth Prince didn't reveal any clues, which also greatly boosted his confidence.
Everyone in the harem has been discussing this matter recently. After all, everyone knows how much Concubine Jin loves the Eleventh Prince.
The reason why the prince is so seriously ill now is because Concubine Jin keeps feeding him egg custard.
This became a big joke.
Especially Xia Dongchun, who mocked Concubine Jin many times.
"Hasn't Concubine Jin always been very dedicated in raising children, doing everything herself?"
"The emperor has often praised Concubine Jin for her motherly love for the eleventh prince. I never expected that she would make such a mistake. It's really unbelievable."
These words, coupled with Xia Dongchun's signature expression, were enough to make Concubine Jin angry to death.
Xia Dongchun and An Lingrong are sarcastic to each other every day, and now their ability to irritate people is increasing rapidly.
Xia Dongchun and Concubine Jin were both the prince's adoptive mothers, and when she mocked Concubine Jin, the meaning of her mockery was greatly increased.
"I heard that the imperial concubine doesn't care about anything, poor little prince..."
Concubine Jin forced a smile on her face and ridiculed Xia Dongchun for not being loyal to the twelfth prince.
But could Xia Dongchun make her feel proud? With narrowed eyes, crooked mouth, twisted waist, and swung handkerchief, she said sarcastically:
"Alas, I am indeed not as good as Concubine Jin in this respect. Honghan is too noisy and I am really unable to take care of him. But fortunately, Concubine Qian is the biological mother and is very devoted to Little Twelve. The blood between mother and son is thicker than water. With Concubine Qian watching over Little Prince, he is also very well behaved."
As he spoke, Xia Dongchun raised his eyebrows, looking as if he was trying to hold back a laugh.
"Noble Qian and the Twelfth Prince have a deep mother-son relationship. After all, Noble Qian carried the child for ten months with great difficulty, and I also want her to be closer to the child. It just so happens that I have to take care of Honghan, and Noble Qian can help look after the Twelfth Prince and share my worries. I am more than happy to do so."
Looking at Concubine Jin's face which was gradually turning green, Xia Dongchun took a step forward and looked more carefully.
"Oh, but it's good that Concubine Jin can do it herself. Concubine Zhang will have some free time."
As he spoke, Xia Dongchun looked at Concubine Zhang, who was standing behind Concubine Jin, with her head down and not saying a word.
Concubine Jin was helpless against Xia Dongchun. Hearing what Xia Dongchun meant, she turned her head fiercely and glared at Concubine Zhang, who looked even more frightened.
"Your Highness has taken good care of my brother, and I am very grateful. Your Highness is my brother's mother, and my brother has always been close to you. If I had taken care of him, I am afraid he would have cried and made a fuss."
Concubine Zhang was panicked and spoke immediately. As she spoke, she observed Concubine Jin's expression. Seeing that Concubine Jin's complexion had improved, she felt a little relieved.
Xia Dongchun looked at her like this and said with a half-smile:
"Mrs. Zhang is quite sensible. Concubine Jin has taught her very well."
When Concubine Zhang heard what Xia Dongchun said, her body stiffened.
Concubine Jin knew that Xia Dongchun was mocking Concubine Zhang for being a dog that she raised, and a good dog at that, but she didn't care. After all, Concubine Jin herself thought so too.
Instead, Concubine Jin said:
"Some people are too indulgent, and their hearts are too big. Chao Fei should be more careful."
Concubine Jin's words were profound, with malice flashing in her eyes.
This means that Liu Jia is close to her son, and the twelfth prince will be closer to his biological mother and will not recognize Xia Dongchun as his adoptive mother.
However, Xia Dongchun just wanted to think, what does it have to do with you, Concubine Jin?
It would really lower your own status to argue with this Concubine Jin.
Xia Dongchun just smiled and said, "Don't bother Concubine Jin."
