The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

But before Nian Shilan could do anything, Mangzhong came in hurriedly, crying, and knelt down in front of Nian Shilan.

"My queen, the Fourth Prince! The Fourth Prince's wet nurse suddenly fainted, and the Fourth Prince also has symptoms of fever! I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's not good!"

Nian Shilan's hands, which were holding the teacup, were so tight that her knuckles turned white. She stood up suddenly, but her feet went weak and she almost fell.

Guyu and Lingzhi, who were serving nearby, rushed forward in panic.

"Mom, be careful!"

Nian Shilan was helped to stand up. She looked around blankly, her mind in a mess.

Since the outbreak of the epidemic, Hongli had been well protected by himself in Qingliang Palace, and the wet nurse's food had always been provided by his own small kitchen. How could he suddenly get the epidemic?

Songzhi came hurriedly from outside and gently took the breath from Nian Shilan's chest.

After a while, Nian Shilan finally recovered and let out a long breath.

As the scene in front of her became clearer, Nian Shilan instantly woke up.

I really felt at a loss when I became a mother. If Hongli is sick, I will treat him!

Find out what disease you got!
Nian Shilan stood firm and uttered a word.

"go!"

She shook off Guyu and Lingzhi who were still holding her arms, and Mangzhong, who was kneeling on the ground, quickly made way.

Nian Shilan strode towards the side hall where the Fourth Prince was, and Songzhi and other palace maids followed closely behind her.

Xiao Linzi was sent to deliver something to Yunli and was not in Qingliang Palace. At this time, a young eunuch rushed to find him.

When Nian Shilan walked to the side hall, she saw that the wet nurse who had fainted was nowhere to be seen. There was only another wet nurse who looked normal in the hall, holding the Fourth Prince and coaxing him.

The sick Fourth Prince kept crying anxiously, but his voice gradually became weaker.

Nian Shilan felt extremely distressed and quickly stepped forward to hug the Fourth Prince.

But the wet nurse turned her body slightly to avoid Nian Shilan and said.

"Please forgive me, Concubine Hua! I dare not hand over the Fourth Prince to you. He has a fever.
I am worried that the Fourth Prince has been infected with the epidemic. I am not afraid of infection, but your Majesty is a precious person.
Don’t fall down at this moment!”

Wen Xianqing came hurriedly from outside. As early as the Fourth Prince started to have a fever, a young eunuch had already gone to look for Wen Xianqing.

When Wen Xianqing heard about the Fourth Prince's condition, he called a eunuch to bring the medicine box, and he ran over without paying any attention to etiquette.

He panted as soon as he entered the door.

"Good luck to your Highness, Concubine Hua. I am late!"

Nian Shilan stood a few steps away, looking at Hongli's red face in the wet nurse's arms, feeling extremely anxious.

"Master Wen, please don't be polite. Please take a look at Hongli!"

While Wen Xianqing was examining the Fourth Prince, Nian Shilan stared at the palace servants serving in the hall and asked.

"How come Fourth Prince's wet nurse was ill, but she waited until she fainted before informing me?

Where is she now? The Japanese imperial palace has told you not to go out these days.
How did the wet nurse contract the plague?
If you don’t tell the truth today, I will beat you all to death!"

The palace maids were all trembling and knelt on the ground, lowering their heads and not daring to look at Nian Shilan.

Nian Shilan had always been kind to the palace maids in her palace, and she would always give them money out of her own pocket during festivals. The palace maids had never seen Nian Shilan speak so harshly and harshly. They felt that the pressure above their heads was about to break their spines.

Xiao Shunzi, who had been assigned to serve the Fourth Prince since he was born, spoke tremblingly.

"Reporting to the master, the sick wet nurse Liu has been carried away.

Because, the servants were afraid that she would die here, which would be unlucky.

During these days, the servants have followed the master's instructions and have never left the Qingliang Palace.

Slave, I don’t know how the wet nurse got sick.”

Xiao Linzi ran in from outside and knelt in front of Nian Shilan.

"Master, I have been on duty these days and have taken every precaution, but I didn't expect such a big thing to happen.

Master, please punish me. Seeing my young master like this, I feel really bad! "Nian Shilan stared at Xiao Linzi for a long time, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Wen Xianqing say.

"Your Majesty, according to my diagnosis, the Fourth Prince is at the beginning stage of the epidemic.

Your Majesty, please do not worry. I am here with you, and there are many good medicines in the palace.

I will ensure that the Fourth Prince is safe and sound, and he will be fully recovered within ten days."

When Yinzhen heard that the Fourth Prince had contracted the plague, he rushed to Qingliang Palace without hesitation.

As soon as he reached the door, he heard Wen Xianqing's voice and breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Peisheng said loudly.

"The Emperor has arrived~!"

Nian Shilan stood in the house and did not come out, but the voice came out.

"I, your concubine, lead the palace maids to pay my respects to His Majesty. May His Majesty be well and healthy! But now is different from the past. Please stay!"

Yinzhen retracted his raised steps and stood outside the hall.

"How is Hongli? I came here as soon as I heard about it."

Nian Shilan said in the hall.

"I, your concubine, would like to thank the emperor for his concern on behalf of Hongli. Lord Wen said that Hongli will recover in ten days, so please rest assured, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty's body is precious. Please forgive me for being blunt, but you shouldn't be here."

Yinzhen said helplessly.

"When I heard that Hongli was ill, how could I still have the energy to do other things?"

Nian Shilan's voice came.

"Your Majesty is not only a father, but also a ruler. I appreciate your kindness. For now, Hongli, I and Doctor Wen are enough. Your Majesty, please go back."

Su Peisheng glanced at Yinzhen's worried face, but didn't dare to say anything.

Fortunately, Nian Shilan continued.

"Eunuch Su, please prepare a bucket of mugwort water for the emperor after returning to Jiuzhou Qingyan, so that he can bathe and change clothes."

Su Peisheng immediately nodded in response.

"Hey! I will never let you worry!"

Yinzhen knew that Nian Shilan was worried that he would be infected.

"Okay, I'll listen to Shi Lan. Qingliang Palace will be used for whatever it needs, and no one is allowed to stop us!"

After leaving this decree, Yinzhen returned to Jiuzhou Qingyan with Su Peisheng.

But although he was in Jiuzhou Qingyan, his heart was in Qingliang Palace. The mother and son became more and more important in his heart unknowingly.

Su Peisheng brought in a cup of soup and placed it carefully in front of Yinzhen.

"Your Majesty, this is the Qi-boosting and body-nourishing soup sent by the Empress Dowager of Yonghe Palace.

The Queen Mother said that you have been staying up all night these days to fight the epidemic.

People have become thin from working too much. The Queen Mother specially ordered the kitchen to cook this soup.”

Yinzhen looked at the white porcelain soup bowl in front of him, and felt a slight movement in a corner of his heart.

When he was a child, he grew up under the care of Imperial Noble Consort Tonggiya. His biological mother, Concubine De, now Empress Dowager De, had always ignored him.

In order to avoid suspicion, even when they met in the palace on a daily basis, Concubine De was always indifferent to him.

Later, as he grew up, Concubine De gave birth to the fourteenth child, and he often saw Concubine De taking the fourteenth child walking in the imperial garden.

At that time, Yinzhen still had a lingering desire for his mother, Concubine De, and even went to see his biological mother and fourteenth brother secretly, regardless of the displeasure of Tong Jia. (End of this chapter)
