Chapter 124 The Crown Princess Faints
Chapter 124 The Crown Princess Faints
Yinzhen had been to the Old Summer Palace many times, but this was his first time staying in Changchun Garden.
Xiyu hid from the sight of several people and stuffed the small jewelry box in her hand under the dressing table. Inside was Qixi.
However, his spiritual power was insufficient now, and he spent most of his time in a coma, conserving his energy.
The journey today was rushed and both of them were tired, so they went to bed early after washing up.
In the secluded courtyard, as night falls, the moonlight shines on the bluestone slabs, casting a faint silver glow.
The breeze blows through the branches and leaves, making a rustling sound, accompanied by the chirping of insects and frogs, but it does not make people feel noisy. Instead, it has the effect of calming the mind and promoting sleep.
It was already late at night, but inside the Yuqing Palace in the Forbidden City, someone was still having trouble falling asleep.
The prince sat alone in the courtyard, drinking and groaning in pain. He seemed to be in unrelieved pain, but he could not show it to others.
"Your Highness, are you going to be so decadent just for a few little eunuchs? How can you be worthy of being the crown prince of a country?"
The Crown Princess woke up at some point and appeared behind him wearing a lavender middle dress, with no expression on her face.
Even the tone was indifferent.
Hearing this, the prince slowly turned his head to look at her, his eyes becoming increasingly angry.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Literally."
The Crown Princess's face was filled with gloom. She knew that as a Crown Princess and a wife, she shouldn't treat a Crown Prince, a husband, like this.
But... for some reason, she felt a breath stuck in her chest, stuck there, unable to swallow it or let it out.
In the past six months, she had to share a husband with a group of eunuchs every day, which really made her feel sick.
She comes from a prominent family and is an only child, so she also has her own self-esteem!
"How dare you mock me!"
The prince stood up and threw the golden wine jug in his hand to the ground with force, making a "clang-clang" sound.
His hair was disheveled, his eyes were grim, and he tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart.
The last time he was angry about the Crown Princess's control, he had already beaten someone up once, and now he must not do it again.
If this gets out and the Guwalja clan finds out, there will probably be a big fuss.
Now he was confined to Yuqing Palace by the Emperor's father, and the situation was not favorable...
The prince slowly closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his eyes were dark and dark, and his thin lips were tightened into a straight line. "Do you really think that I care about the little eunuchs? What I care about is that just because I played with a few little eunuchs, the emperor confined me to Yuqing Palace!"
"What I care about is that I don't even have the freedom to do such trivial things as raising a few concubines."
He had just drunk some wine, and now his blood was rushing up, making him feel a little dizzy. He leaned his hand on a tree beside him and burped.
"If I could make the decision..."
"Your Highness!"
The Crown Princess knew that if he continued talking, it would be disrespectful, so she quickly took a few steps closer and stopped him loudly.
No matter how disappointing Yinreng was, he was tied to himself and to the Guwalja clan.
All the glory and the loss are the loss.
It's this damn family honor again!
She tried to calm her heart which was beating violently with anger, and tried to suppress her useless self-esteem again.
She is the Crown Princess and the future mother of a country. She should have a broad mind and be tolerant of everything.
Amma's words kept echoing in my ears.
After a moment, she stepped forward to support the man and gently advised, "Your Highness has drunk too much. Please follow me back to the palace to rest."
Seeing her sudden change in attitude, the prince turned his head slightly and glanced at her with a look of contempt that was hard to conceal.
She is just a woman who loves wealth and fame, covets the power of the Crown Princess, and is unable to bear children. Why does she only know how to scold me every day?
"I can go on my own."
He swung his sleeves impatiently and pushed the person away.
However, she didn't expect that the wine jug she had just thrown away was on the ground behind her. The Crown Princess stumbled and stepped on it, falling towards a thick tree beside her.
"Well……"
A muffled groan escaped from her throat. The pain in her stomach made her legs and feet weak, and she slid down the tree trunk.
"Miss!"
When the palace maid Lily, who was waiting in the distance, saw her fall, she immediately walked up quickly and squatted beside her.
Hearing the exclamation, the prince subconsciously turned around and saw her slumped on the ground, refusing to get up, her brows tightly furrowed, feeling a bit impatient.
"I didn't use any strength just now, don't pretend!"
The Crown Princess leaned against the tree, holding her stomach with both hands, her face pale.
But at this moment, cold sweat oozed out of his forehead, "Bai... Lily, my stomach hurts, please help me call the imperial physician..."
She spoke in a weak voice, and after she finished this, her eyes rolled back and she fainted under the tree.
"Quick! Call the doctor!"
Lily shouted loudly, and other palace guards who were on night watch heard it and immediately ran to the door to report the situation.
The Crown Princess's fainting was no small matter. The guards at the door did not dare to delay and immediately ran to the Imperial Hospital to ask for the imperial physician.
The prince was sobered up by Lily's scream. After a moment of shock, he quickly walked over and picked her up.
"Your Highness, what are you going to do!"
Lily saw him pick up the person and walk away, so she followed him very vigilantly, fearing that he might drop the person due to his drunkenness and unstable arms.
The prince scolded coldly, his feet did not stop, "Shut up! If I don't carry the Crown Princess back to the bedroom, will I just let her lie in the yard?"
Lily was indignant and didn't know who was the culprit for the Empress's current state.
The prince laid the person down steadily on the bed, and was about to cover her with the quilt when he found some blood on the collar of her clothes on her abdomen.
There are only a few stars, but they are so dazzling.
"This...what's going on? How did he get injured when he didn't have any sharp weapons?"
A hint of confusion flashed across his gentle and handsome eyes, and his breathing quickened involuntarily.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty..."
Lily looked towards the bed, her face suddenly turned pale, and her trembling fingers pointed at the area below the Crown Princess's belly on the bed.
The prince's pupils trembled and his heart sank.
Having lived in the palace for many years, he had seen this scene many times. Why did it seem like...
There was a trace of panic in the prince's eyes, and his lips trembled unconsciously, "Where is the imperial physician! Where is the imperial physician!"
He staggered for a moment, then ran out like a madman and rushed to the gate of Yuqing Palace, "Where is the imperial physician? Where is the imperial physician?!"
The imperial guards at the gate quickly stopped the man and said, "Your Highness, the imperial physician has been sent for. You cannot leave Yuqing Palace."
The prince grabbed the arm of the person next to him, and his fingers exerted a little force, his eyes stained with madness, "The Crown Princess is in critical condition, go and urge her, hurry up and urge her! If you delay the Crown Princess's health, I will make you all die with me!"
Normally when he appeared in front of people, he looked gentle and polite, but now there was a hint of madness in his expression.
However, the commander of the Imperial Guards had no energy to pay attention to these things. He only heard him say that the Crown Princess was in critical condition.
If anything happens to the Crown Princess under their supervision, His Majesty will not let them off easily.
He was startled and sent another subordinate, "You go too, run over and bring the doctor here immediately!"
