After Ye Jun walked away, the third prince gently tugged at Yi Shunrong's clothes and whispered.
"Mom, can I have my own dog?"
"No." Yi Shunrong was irritable and his tone was not very good.
When I saw my son's face droop, I realized that I was a little too harsh.
He squatted down and picked up the child.
He said in a gentle voice, "Han'er, there is a phrase called 'playthings lead to loss of ambition', which means that if you indulge in playing with something, you will lose your ambition and stop striving for progress. Han'er is a good child, and now is the time to start studying. You can't just think about playing, otherwise you won't be a smart and good child, understand?"
Although the third prince felt a little disappointed, he was able to accept the idea of studying hard that his mother often instilled in him.
Just nodded and said no more.
Ye Jun had been unlucky with Yi Shunrong and felt a little uncomfortable.
He ordered people to take Nian Gao and play outside, and then he went back first.
She had been out for less than half an hour, and when she came back she heard Lumei tell her about something important.
There was news coming in from the palace.
It is said that the second prince fell into the lake, but fortunately he was rescued by Qin Baolin.
"What a coincidence?" Ye Jun asked in surprise.
It's not that she is suspicious, it's just that there are almost no people in the palace who actually do good things.
She did use ginseng to save An, who was having difficulties in giving birth to the eldest prince, but what was the result
"It's the lake next to Concubine Jingde's residence. The second prince was playing with a ball and it rolled into the lake. The second prince chased after it to retrieve it, but it was snowy and slippery, so he lost his balance and rolled into the lake. None of the servants knew how to swim, and Qin Baolin happened to be delivering a new scarf to Concubine Jingde. He saw it and rescued it."
Green Plum explained.
He added, "Qin Baolin's hometown is near water, and he was raised as a boy for a period of time when he was young, so he knows how to swim."
This doesn't sound like a conspiracy, it must be a coincidence.
But Ye Jun couldn't help but frown again.
"The Second Prince fell into the water. I'm afraid we won't be able to stay in the garden for another month. The Emperor must go back to see the child."
Sure enough, within a stick of incense, Yuan Jiu came in person to deliver the message.
It was said that the Emperor was in a hurry to return to the palace, so he left first, and the concubines would set off early tomorrow morning to return.
After all, it's already afternoon and I have two children in Lingxi Garden. I can't rush and tire the children out.
The palms and backs of your hands are all made of flesh.
"What the emperor means is that Shunyuan, please take the trouble to arrange the rules for returning to the palace." Yuan Jiu said.
Ye Jun nodded, "I understand. Eunuch, please go back and serve the emperor. Also, tell him something for me. The second prince is blessed and will be fine. Please don't worry too much, Your Majesty."
"Hey, I'll remember this. I'll take my leave first."
Yuan Jiu bowed and left in a hurry.
"Shunyuan, what should we do?" Huiyue asked.
Ye Jun narrowed his eyes.
"Go back the way you came. Just follow the rules. Drivers are all experienced and know what to do."
"Bai Shu, go and arrange the carriages and horses first. Lu Mei, go and tell them to pack their things. Hui Yue, take someone to pack my luggage."
The servants understood this division of labor and immediately got to work.
In the palace, when Ning Chen hurried back, it was already evening.
I went straight to Xiefang Palace, and the imperial physician was still there.
It was not for any other reason, but because the Second Prince was too frightened and caught a cold, and he had nightmares and a high fever.
The imperial physician definitely wouldn't dare to leave.
At this moment, the Queen and Concubine Shu are guarding here, and everyone else has been asked to go back.
Seeing Ning Chen coming in, he quickly stood up and saluted.
"Where's the Second Prince, and where's Consort De?"
"They are all inside. The Second Prince was crying in his nightmare, and Concubine De just coaxed him to sleep." said the Queen.
Ning Chen frowned even more tightly.
He walked lightly into the inner room.
Concubine De was sitting beside the bed, wiping the child's face with a towel.
The second prince's face was flushed red and his lips were so dry that they were about to crack. Even when he was asleep, his brows were tightly furrowed and he looked very uncomfortable.
"What happened?" Ning Chen asked in a low voice.
Concubine Jingde stood up, bowed silently, and then responded in a low voice.
"The Second Prince couldn't take the medicine. The child was too restless to be injected. He still had a fever. I managed to force some medicine in, but it didn't work."
After he finished speaking, he knelt down.
"Your Majesty, I am incompetent and have failed to take good care of the Second Prince. I am truly ashamed of your trust. Please punish me!"
"Get up." Ning Chen waved his hand. "This is not your fault. It's all because of the carelessness of those servants. The Second Prince has been healthy and lively since he was raised by you. You are the most careful one."
Everyone saw how Concubine Jingde took great care of the Second Prince.
Being good to children is absolutely beyond words.
The Second Prince is usually taken care of by Concubine Jingde himself, so the Second Prince is closer to Concubine Jingde than to his wet nurse.
Everyone saw all of this, so it really cannot be said that Concubine De was not attentive.
After hearing what Ning Chen said, Concubine Jingde wiped her tears and stood up.
"It's late at night now, and the emperor must be very tired after rushing back. Why don't you go back and rest first? Let the empress and the concubine go back as well. I and the imperial physician will just stay with the second prince. After all, I just fed him half a bowl of medicine, so it should be useful."
Ning Chen thought about it, but still felt uneasy.
Finally, he asked the Queen and Consort Shu to leave, and he stayed behind.
Just rest in the side hall so you can come over if there is any movement.
Fortunately, nothing serious happened. When daybreak came, the second prince's fever subsided.
Concubine Jingde was worried all night and didn't sleep a wink, and her face turned pale.
In the morning the child woke up and she nearly fell down.
Ning Chen quickly ordered his servants to take her away and have some sleep first.
Go see the kids.
The second prince's fever has subsided, but he is still sleeping.
He sat by the bed for a while, told the servants to serve him well, and it was almost time to go to court.
When living in Lingxi Garden, you don't have to meet ministers every day. You will only summon them when there is something important. But when you return to the palace, you have to follow the rules.
He had breakfast in Xiefang Palace and then left.
Ye Jun and his group did not return to the palace until noon.
I got back just in time for lunch.
Nan Zhi had already prepared a table of food, but Ye Jun was in no hurry to eat. After putting the child in place, he immediately went to Xiefang Palace.
This is of course a show.
But sometimes you just have to be proactive and help others in their time of need, so that it seems that you and he are of the same mind.
It's more like green tea, which highlights your gentleness and kindness.
You still have to install it when it’s time.
So, when the other people who came back together were eating, they suddenly heard that Ming Shunyuan went to Xiefang Palace as soon as she came back, and they were all confused.
By the time he realized what was happening and was about to pick up his things to see the Second Prince, Ye Jun had already finished the formalities and returned.
It was awkward for a moment.
Originally, it wouldn't matter if they weren't in a hurry to go, but with the comparison of Ye Jun, the three of them suddenly seemed very heartless.
Ye Jun's action this time, apart from trying to gain favor, was also somewhat deliberate.
The next day after they went to Lingxi Garden, the three of them came to pay their respects to her. She still remembered that they had tried to ruin her reputation.
You have to return it secretly.
Even if Yi Shunrong and Wan Wanrong fought each other, it was not a good thing for Wan.
It's just that the thing wasn't done, so I got anxious.
