Chapter 970: The eldest daughter is as bright as spring flowers (ninety-two)
The Crown Princess felt heartbroken. Last time, her son almost died. It was only because she asked the Empress for help and used threats and bribes on the imperial doctors in the palace that the doctors were willing to use risky prescriptions and take the risk that the Crown Prince had a 50% chance of dying.
Although the imperial physician saved the crown prince at that time, it was only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. It was impossible for the crown prince to be alive and kicking.
Now the Crown Prince has been lying in bed for another half a month, and he is completely lifeless. The Crown Princess is filled with guilt and helplessness.
She had failed to protect her child during her pregnancy. The Eastern Palace was treacherous, and many people didn't want her to bear the Crown Prince's eldest son. She had taken every precaution, and finally, after finally giving birth, the child was born weak. The Crown Princess knew her son's pain, but how could she bear to see him leave her? Besides, if Rui'er were gone, how would she live? Wouldn't that just be fulfilling the wishes of those evil people? She'd make room for someone else.
She hugged her son to comfort him, but the Crown Prince was already numb, his eyes open without focus.
The Eastern Palace employs eight court doctors, five of whom are specialized in treating the Crown Prince. They describe the Crown Prince's condition as extremely serious, saying that he has already decided to die, and his body has reached its limit, so he might not survive this year.
The Crown Princess was angry that her son couldn't pull himself together, and she hated her partner for being so heartless. For so many years, the Crown Prince only visited the Crown Prince once a month, and the rest of the time he spent with his concubines, hoping to have a son to prove that he had a successor and reassure the Emperor and his ministers.
The Crown Princess understood the Crown Prince's urgency, as the other princes were indeed restless due to the issue of having an heir, but this was no reason for the Crown Prince to ignore her son. The Crown Princess knew of the Crown Prince's actions, and judging by the frequency with which he left the palace and the various precious gifts he sent, she assumed the woman was pregnant.
Since you like the little fairy outside so much, then live with her. Why do you need the identity of a prince?
It is because of his status as the crown prince that he attaches great importance to offspring. If the people in the Eastern Palace cannot have healthy sons, does he have to find women outside to give birth?
The Crown Princess understood clearly that her son was useless. In every sense, Rui'er would no longer be a support for her and her mother's family.
She could either wait for the prince to have a new son and adopt him into her family, or wait to die of illness with her son, giving the prince the opportunity to marry another noble lady and add another bargaining chip to his path to succession.
The Crown Princess loved her child dearly. She had no hopes of further advancement, nor did she want to consider her own family or her own prosperity. She only wanted the Crown Prince to suffer, to experience the pain her son had endured. She summoned someone, her expression cold.
"Inform that person that I agree to cooperate."
"Yes, master."
Half a month later, another major event occurred in the capital that shocked the court.
Qingli happened to be having dinner at Yunxiang Tower. When she heard screams and loud noises coming from outside the room, she quickly stood up.
"What happened?"
Wei Ying sent someone outside to check the situation, and soon the guards came back to report that the second son of the Ye family had discovered his wife having an affair and had just broken into the box, but was kicked out by the people inside not long after. He rolled down the stairs from the second floor to the lobby on the first floor and could not get up for a long time. It was the waiter of Yunxianglou who helped him up.
Soon eight people rushed in. They were the men of the Second Young Master Ye. Seeing their master being bullied, they confronted the group. Both sides were holding swords, and the situation was not good.
The owner of Yunxianglou also knocked on the door and asked his master how to deal with the matter.
"Master, I followed the instructions of the noble inside and sent in hot water. I also asked the doctor in the building to come in. From what I can see, the woman in the room seems to have had a miscarriage. The floor is covered in blood.
Outside, two groups of people were facing each other. Young Master Ye II was clamoring to go upstairs and kill the adulterer. The wealthy businessman's followers tried to stop them from going upstairs, but the two groups refused to listen to their subordinates' pleas for peace. Now the hall was empty, the guests had all left, and some guests on the second floor were still quietly watching the excitement.
Qingli knew the situation was urgent and quickly ordered, "Hurry up and send someone to Jingzhao Prefecture. By the way, did you see who that person in the box was?"
