“Since you know you are wrong, this palace will punish you for serving the emperor well and not to make any more mistakes.”
Eunuch Huang thought that Consort Xiao Xianfei would take this opportunity to give him death, but when he heard this, he raised his head incredulously and met Consort Xiao Xianfei’s gaze.
“Get up.”
Eunuch Huang stood up trembling and took a half step back.
Consort Xiao Xianfei sat down at the edge of the soft collapse and took out a handkerchief to wipe the saliva dripping out of the corners of His Majesty’s mouth, her face a worried one, but her heart incomparably happy.
“Father.”
The Fourth Prince’s voice was choked with tears in his eyes as he squatted down and grabbed one of His Majesty’s hands, “You must get well soon, my son cannot be without you, nor can the Great Qing Kingdom be without you.”
Eunuch Huang’s eyelids twitched a few times and his head hung even lower.
The courtier removed the silver needles, and Huang Yuan also boiled the medicine and brought it over, Xiao Xianfei took it and fed it to the emperor little by little.
After feeding, the courtier took his pulse again, but the illness did not lessen in the slightest, and the courtier could not help but frown.
The other eunuchs saw this and their hearts lifted, Yuanzheng was the most skilled among them, and if the Emperor’s symptoms were not alleviated by his hand, the rest of them would not be able to.
“All of you come to the number.”
After taking the Emperor’s pulse and reading the prescriptions prescribed by the hospital, there was no problem at all.
“Why don’t we ask Miss Song to come over and take a look?”
After a moment of silence, one of the eunuch doctors spoke cautiously.
Those who could join the Imperial Hospital were all extremely skilled in medicine, and they usually had their eyes on the highest level, not to mention for a little girl like Song Wan Yue, even the most famous doctors in the major medical centers in the capital were not in their eyes.
But …… Song Wangyue entered the palace for a few days and cured the fourth prince of smallpox, which made them admire.
If he dared to stop it, Consort Xiao and the fourth prince could do whatever they wanted to him.
“No!”
But Consort Xiao objected, “After all, Miss Song is a daughter, she cannot touch the dragon’s body, the Emperor will be furious when he wakes up, for the sake of your lives, you should give up this idea.”
The Imperial Doctors were also in a state of disarray, and after being reminded by Consort Xiao, they suddenly came to their senses and responded with red faces.
The capital’s governor was kneeling at the back, listening to the eunuchs’ words, and was both anxious and happy. He was anxious that the Emperor had not improved after the needles and medicine; he was happy that if the Emperor did not wake up, he would have a chance to redeem himself. If he could catch Liu Ying while the emperor was not well, he might not be punished when the emperor woke up.
Thinking of this, he spoke with a shaky voice, “Your Majesty ……”
Only then did Consort Xiao Xian see someone kneeling, and looking at the official uniform, the official position should not be low.
“I have met Your Majesty and Your Highness. Just now, His Majesty fell ill because he listened to my report and was angry, I can hardly escape the blame, please also ask Your Majesty to reprimand.”
“What made His Majesty so angry?”
The Capitalist Yin said again what he had just reported.
When they heard that Liu Ying had released a group of people with smallpox every few days, a group of eunuch doctors all drew a breath.
The princess was so shocked that she clutched her handkerchief and asked, “Has Liu Ying been caught?”
“Not yet.”
“Then why are you still kneeling? Why don’t you go out to the palace and arrest him?”
This was the words the capital minister was waiting for, and he hastily climbed to his feet, “I will go now.”
“Wait!”
The Capital Minister stopped in his tracks.
“Miss Song has experience in preventing and treating smallpox, my palace will have someone inform her to come out of the palace later, so you can take someone to ask her how to do it, and make sure to keep smallpox from spreading on a large scale.”
“Yes.”
Only after the capital minister had exited the imperial study did Consort Xiao Xianfei realise with hindsight that she had done wrong and looked to Eunuch Huang, “Eunuch Huang, this palace did not mean to interfere with politics, this palace was just in a hurry ……”
“It is good that Eunuch Huang does not blame this palace.”
Eunuch Huang broke out in a cold sweat.
……
The capital minister almost trotted out of the palace. The first time I got into a carriage, I dared to wipe the cold sweat off my forehead, and I hated Liu Ying even more, and I could not wait to catch him now to die by a thousand cuts.
When he returned to the capital, he called everyone together, “No matter what you use, you must find Liu Ying before noon tomorrow.
……
Song Wangyue received a message from the aunt in charge, packed her things and quickly left the palace.
There was a carriage parked in the distance and Song Yin was standing by it, seeing her come out and striding towards her.
Song Wan Yue flew into his arms.
Song Yin held her in his arms and kissed her on the forehead before he turned around and carried her to the carriage.
As the carriage slowly started, Song Yin held Song Wan Yue tightly in his arms.
Song Wan Yue’s head rested on his chest, feeling his wild heartbeat, she couldn’t help but lose her smile, “Haven’t you always been by my side and know that I’m fine? Why are you still so nervous?”
Song Yin wasn’t just nervous, he was also scared. He was in the palace, but he hadn’t always been by her side. He knew that the little girl would save her cousin, but he was still afraid every day, afraid that she would accidentally contract smallpox, afraid that the emperor would take advantage of the opportunity to get at her, afraid that he wouldn’t be able to protect her in times of crisis.
“When things are over, I will accompany you back to the countryside, planting fields and doing business every day.”
Song Wan Yue laughed, “That’s not up to you.”
When King Qin was rehabilitated, Song Yin would be the son of the emperor, and with his status in place, it was impossible for him to live as he pleased.
“As long as I want to, I can!”
“That won’t do ……”
Song Wan Yue cupped his face and looked him in the eyes, “I, a country girl, still want to be the Shizi Consort.”
Song Yin’s throat rolled and he lowered his head, taking in her lips.
……
The two of them went back to the southern city.
Xiao Yao, who got the news in advance, had hot water prepared, and Song Wan Yue comfortably took a bath, changed her clothes and came out fresh.
Song Yin and Song Si went to the study, Xiao Yao was waiting in the flower hall with a paddle, and when she saw her come out, she hurriedly went up and pulled her over to sit down, helping her to dry her hair.
Before she could say anything, Xiao An came in quickly, “Miss Song, the capital minister is here.”
“Go and tell my elder brother and Song Yin.”
Xiao An answered, and quickly went to call for someone.
Song Wan Yue took the handkerchief, twisted it haphazardly a few times, tied her hair casually, and was about to go out, when Xiao Yao pulled her back, pointing at her half-wet hair, “You’ll get a wind chill if you go out like this, just let your big brother go to meet the people.”
