Chapter 344 People are sent away
After Queen Qin coughed violently several times, she calmed down after drinking a glass of water with the help of Nanny Liu.
When I raised my eyes, I happened to see the worry on the prince's face, and I finally felt better.
"My son, as the crown prince, you are the heir to the throne of our Daliang Kingdom. The only way to keep the balance of power is to treat all the women in the harem equally!
Otherwise, how can you shoulder the heavy responsibility of the country in the future! How can you make your subjects loyal to you?"
Queen Qin played the sympathy card again when she said this.
"Prince, today we will talk behind closed doors. Isn't what your father did enough to wake you up?
It was because of your father's favor that Concubine Xiao became so arrogant and lawless.
Have you forgotten the situation when my mother and I were suppressed by Concubine Xiao and her son? Do you want Fang Qingge to become the second Concubine Xiao in the future? "
Queen Qin felt that her words of persuasion, which appealed to the prince's feelings and logic, were sincere and heartfelt enough to move the prince's heart.
So she stopped talking.
*
There was silence in the hall for a moment.
After a moment, the prince raised his eyes and looked deeply at his mother, then turned and left without saying a word.
After a tantrum, Queen Qin thought that the Crown Prince would do as he did before and say something soft to let her save her face.
But she never expected that the prince would leave her in anger!
"He?...He?...He actually ignored me?...This is the son I gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy!"
Queen Qin was so angry that she pointed at the prince's back and couldn't catch her breath. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
"Empress? Please don't scare me!"
"Oh? The Queen fainted?"
"Quick, go get the imperial physician?"
Only then did Aunt Liu come to her senses and screamed.
"Yes, Madam Liu, I'll go."
The head palace maid Miaoyin responded quickly and was about to run out.
*
"No, don't call the imperial physician."
At this time, Madam Liu's hand was grabbed by the Queen and stopped.
Seeing the anxious look in Queen Qin's eyes, Madam Liu quickly called back the person who was about to run away.
"Miaoyin, please come back soon. Don't go and ask the imperial physician! Come with me and help the queen to the inner room to rest."
"Yes. Aunt Liu."
Miaoyin quickly stopped herself from stepping out the door.
When Queen Qin grabbed her hand, Madam Liu also quickly figured it out.
Since the Queen Mother fainted due to the Prince's anger, she really couldn't ask the Imperial Physician to come to her aid, otherwise the entire harem and even the previous dynasty would denounce the Prince as being unfilial and unworthy of being the Prince.
"My lady, please slow down."
The two men helped Queen Qin walk into the inner room.
"Qiaoyin, go and make some soothing soup."
"Yes, Aunt Liu."
There was a sudden commotion in the room.
*
The prince walked out of Kunning Palace and looked up at the sky, shaking off the depression in his heart.
He never expected that his mother would be so protective of his mother's family, without considering his feelings at all.
"Prince, is your forehead injured?"
The guard Bai Yu, who was left outside Kunning Palace, didn't understand what was going on. When he saw the blood on the prince's forehead, he panicked.
"It's okay, go back to the palace."
"Here."
Guard Bai Yu only knew that the prince was in a low mood at this time. He did not dare to say anything more and followed the prince silently.
*
East Palace, outer courtyard.
Eunuch Fu saw the prince coming back from afar and happily went to greet him.
"Congratulations, Your Highness, your wish has come true. I have taken care of all the follow-up matters without any mistakes."
When he got closer, he saw the blood on the prince's forehead and was horrified.
"Oh, Your Highness, how come you are injured after going out?"
The prince's stern expression softened a little, and he strode out to the study room.
"Nothing serious, just some scratches. Have you sent the person away?"
"Your Highness, I have arranged for a team of guards to send Zhao Yaxue away! Come in quickly, I will get you some medicine to apply on your wound."
"Well! Keep an eye on her, don't let her commit suicide, and don't make our mother sad."
"Well, don't worry. Zhao Yaxue's wet nurse, Madam Yun, took the initiative to go with her this time.
In addition, I arranged two sturdy maids to take care of Zhao Yaxue, which can also be regarded as monitoring her. "
"Yes. That's good."
At this moment, the prince's heart was still soft. He still didn't want the relationship between mother and son to be completely broken because of Zhao Yaxue!
*
Entering the outer study,
Eunuch Fu treated the prince's wound, which was indeed not very serious, just a scratch with some bleeding.
Eunuch Fu had been with the prince for a long time and noticed that he was in a bad mood, so he asked,
"Your Highness, have you just returned from Kunning Palace?"
"Ah."
The prince rubbed his brow and answered.
Eunuch Fu looked at the frowning prince and didn't want to say much, and there was worry in his eyes.
Still couldn't help but sigh,
"Ah! I really can't understand why the Queen loves her niece Zhao Yaxue so much that she is spoiled?!
Your Highness, who do you think is the Queen's biological child, you or the Crown Princess?"
"You? You're just talking nonsense. If my mother heard you, she would definitely skin you alive."
The prince couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
"Ahfu, I'm going back to Yiqiuyuan. You don't have to follow me!"
"Ah? Here. I'll take you there."
"No, just stay here and reflect on yourself, okay?"
"Ah? Reflect? ... Your Highness, what did I do wrong again? Please don't abandon me!"
The prince was in a good mood after being interrupted by Eunuch Fu, and walked to the inner courtyard with ease.
Eunuch Fu looked at the prince's back and laughed foolishly. He knew that sometimes he could still make the prince smile by pretending to be stupid.
*
Yiqiuyuan,
“Daddy, ah ah ah…, Daddy is coming, Daddy is coming!”
The two chubby babies, Xiao Bajiao and Xiao Huajiao, saw the prince striding into the courtyard at once and shouted with joy.
Then, like a little cannonball, it spread its short legs and pounced forward.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Everyone in the yard hurried forward to pay their respects.
"No gift."
Fang Qingge heard the noise and came out of the room with a smile on her face.
"You're back?"
When she saw the slight redness and swelling on the prince's forehead, she was stunned.
The prince had a smile in his eyes and opened his mouth to look at her but no words came out.
But the clever Fang Qingge understood the meaning instantly!
What the prince was reluctant to say was,
"Wife, I have avenged you!"
Fang Qingge looked at the thin and slightly haggard prince, and a mixture of emotions suddenly surged in her heart.
*
At this time, the chirping little pepper hugged the prince's thigh and shouted,
"Daddy, what are you and mom talking about? Why can't I hear you?"
Xiao Bajiao stared at the silent interaction between the two and said seriously,
"I know, Daddy is playing a guessing game with Mom."
"Ah? Daddy, I want to play charades too."
Little Huajiao was unhappy and twisted his chubby body to act coquettishly.
Ever since Fang Qingge and the prince returned safely, the two children immediately dropped their disguise of being sensible and well-behaved and became lively and clingy.
