In Cuiyun Pavilion, the Sixth Prince stopped crying, but his body temperature had obviously risen.
The lake water in February was bone-chillingly cold. Even if Yulu and a few eunuchs fished her out as soon as she fell in, it would still be unbearable.
He actually didn't choke on a few mouthfuls of water, mainly because he was suffocating from the cold.
The imperial doctor diagnosed it and said that the cold was severe and fever was inevitable. I was also frightened, fearing that I would have nightmares at night.
Take a good look at it. After the fever subsides, you will be fine in a few days.
The sixth prince also has a good foundation and has never been sick since he was born.
Shen Chuliu's throat was dry: "Just take your time, don't ask for speed, just don't leave any problems."
"Don't worry, Madam, you didn't fall into the water for a long time, so you won't be injured that much. He just caught a cold. I gave the prince a few medicines to bathe. It's more effective than drinking. He sweated once. From now on, he soaked once a day, and it lasted for more than ten days. Okay. Don't worry, Your Majesty. Your Highness is blessed with great fortune, and everything will be fine." Imperial Doctor Zhao has been friends with Shen Chuliu for many years, so he won't tell lies to her.
"That's good." Shen Chu breathed a sigh of relief.
In the inner room, the sixth prince was blinking and being held by his nanny. When he saw Shen Chuliu coming in, he called out: "Mother."
"Well, I scared my mother to death." Shen Chuliu held his little hand: "Are you afraid?"
The Sixth Prince nodded. How could such a big child not be afraid when he was suddenly pushed into the water
"Don't be afraid, mother is here." Shen Chuliu touched his head: "I have a fever. I will drink medicine and take a bath soon."
The sixth prince just nodded. Although he felt uncomfortable, after being frightened, he was like a sluggish little rabbit. He couldn't cry anymore and just wanted to be held and coaxed.
The emperor had been watching from the side and heard the words of the imperial physician. He walked over and touched the sixth prince's head: "Yan'er is so good."
The sixth prince blinked: "Father."
"Yeah." Qi Yixiu knew what was bulging in his heart. He was also scared just now, very scared.
Even though he has many children, forget about those who cannot be born, but he cares about those who are born. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become so indifferent to Han because of the seventh prince's death.
In particular, he favored the Shen family, came to Cuiyunxuan many times, and met many of the Sixth Prince.
What's more, this kid is very good at finding a sense of presence, like a lively little calf. Suddenly like this, he doesn't feel distressed.
He didn't want to see the child look pale at all, even if he was usually noisy, he still hoped that the sixth prince would be like that. That's best.
After the sixth prince was taken to take a bath, Qi Yixiu said: "You should go change your clothes too, they are all wet."
Shen Chuliu nodded: "Your Majesty, I will try the people in Cuiyunxuan myself. If there are any questions, I will send them to the Internal Criminal Affairs Department. Yan'er almost died today. I beg the Emperor to give him justice."
Shen Chuliu was a little weak when he spoke, but he was very calm.
"Don't worry, Yan'er is also my child. I'll go first. You'll be well. I'll come see you in the evening." Qi Yixiu patted her hand. I feel something I don't know how to express. I always feel like something is wrong.
Shen Chuliu nodded: "If I don't look well, I won't send you to the emperor. I'll wait for you in the evening."
The emperor smiled and tidied up her messy hair: "Just stay there."
After seeing the emperor off, Shen Chuliu changed his clothes. He first watched the sixth prince take a bath and drink medicine before falling asleep, and then called Yuluo and the others.
"Everyone changes first." Shen Chuliu sat in the corridor wrapped in a cloak and said calmly. Yuluo and the others didn't dare to say anything and went about their business.
Those who entered the water and hugged others were naturally wet.
After changing his clothes, Shen Chuliu said, "Tell me what happened."
She walked a few steps and said, "Returning to the master, at first the servants followed the princes. Today it was the third prince who proposed to go to Luming Lake. All the princes went. Originally, we wanted to take a boat, but the fourth prince's eunuch said that today It was windy and it was cold on the lake, so I didn’t take the boat.”
"It was going well at first, but the third prince suddenly mentioned something outside, saying that... people outside wanted to make the second prince the prince, but the second prince couldn't do it."
"The eunuch of the second prince said that the third prince should not be so rude to his elder brother. Our sixth prince happened to walk over and said, "Father loves me the most, so I will be the prince." The second prince suddenly went crazy and pushed him hard. , it happened to be a place near the water, and the Sixth Prince fell in without stopping. Damn it, you didn’t hold on. "
"Who taught him this?" Shen Chuliu asked.
"The slave deserves to die, but I see, no one dares to say this. The nannies are the masters. You have seen these years, the slave must not dare to say this. The new slaves are also honest, not to mention they are still young. No one dares to ask them to serve alone, so this... I'm afraid the Sixth Prince thought about it himself. "
Yuluo knew better than to play tricks with his master: "I think, the sixth prince may not know what the prince means, he just wants to be delicious and fun, and compete with his brothers for favor. But... these days, because of things outside, the second prince The prince was very unhappy... something happened like this."
Shen Chuliu nodded: "Today, my Yan'er almost died."
"This slave deserves to die." Yu Luo's heart was shaking violently.
"Of course you didn't expect that the Second Prince would take action against the Sixth Prince, but the responsibility is still yours. I wish I could beat you to death, but I am not such a cruel master. So I can escape the death penalty, but a beating is inevitable. If anyone doesn't want to be beaten, tell me as soon as possible. , I won’t beat you, and you don’t have to serve my Yan’er anymore.”
Shen Chuliu had always spoken calmly since the sixth prince had an accident.
It always makes people feel that she is suppressing something.
"This slave is willing to be punished. Please be punished by the master!" Yuluo said hurriedly.
The four little eunuchs who followed him also cried and said they were willing to be punished. In fact, their youngest was only seven years old.
It was impossible not to be afraid, I was trembling with fear, but being kicked out was even worse.
What's more, they followed Empress Jing Zhaoyi and the Sixth Prince all day long, and they didn't suffer any crime. Because he was young, his master took special care of him and his diet was much better. At least I never went hungry when I came to Cuiyunxuan.
In the past, starvation was a common occurrence in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Last winter, we all made warm cotton-padded jackets, two of them, so that they could be replaced if they got wet or dirty. You won't get cold.
So even though they were afraid of being beaten, they didn't want to leave, not to mention that if something happened to their master, they should have been punished. I'm lucky if I don't die.
"There are sixty boards for jade leakage. The four of you, each of you has twenty boards. Now you can continue to serve the Sixth Prince. If this happens again, just settle it yourself." Shen Chuliu said coldly.
"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!" Yuluo said hurriedly.
Several young eunuchs also cried and thanked him.
Shen Chuliu helped Zi Zhu's hand in and said, "Tell the people to hold on to the little ones while they spank them, so as not to break them. After that, give them medicine. Also tell them to pay attention to their meals."
"Master, you are so kind." Zi Zhu sighed.
