Rong Chuan greeted several princes and then ran over, "Dad."
Zhou Shuren nodded. Even though Rongchuan was becoming more and more imposing, he was still his son-in-law. He still had to call him daddy when he was in front of him. "Well, the emperor is waiting for you. Don't delay."
Rongchuan nodded, then greeted several adults and left quickly.
Li Zhao came over at this time, "Master Zhou has a good son-in-law."
"It's really good to have a son-in-law that you raise yourself."
Li Zhao, "..."
It is said that a son-in-law is half a son, and Zhou Shuren's son-in-law is a son.
At the Zhou family, Zhulan listened to what Mrs. Song said, thought about it, and signaled Mrs. Song to take the doctor to Zhang Jinghong's house. Yao Xin gave birth to a premature baby, and it was said that she slipped while walking. As for why she slipped, she didn't know much, but the baby was born smoothly. She seemed to be very careful, but she still got sick due to the biting spring breeze.
It is not convenient for Zhulan to go to Zhang Jinghong's house, so it is better to let Mrs. Song go there.
At Zhang Jinghong's house, Yao Xin was so anxious that she was sweating all over. It was the first time she became a mother, and her biological mother could not leave the mansion. She was only accompanied by the maid, and her husband was not at home. She was really panicked. She did not forget why she slipped. There were people who were bribed in her own house, not to mention the doctors outside.
She was really afraid that Jinghong would not come back and her son would die first. She remembered that Jinghong said that she could go to Zhou Mansion for help if she had any difficulties, so she had no choice but to go for help.
When Yao Xin saw Mrs. Song, tears suddenly fell from her eyes. She was really afraid that the Zhou family would not help her. She had no one to ask for help. As for Yao Yao, forget it. Everyone knew that the Shi family followed the fifth prince.
Mrs. Song followed the doctor in. The child was whimpering with his eyes closed, looking very uncomfortable. Mrs. Song frowned, sniffed, and her face changed. She picked up the child's quilt herself and took off the child's clothes.
Yao Xin's pupils constricted. She watched Mrs. Song talk to the doctor for a few words, then instructed the woman to bring warm water and wrung out a handkerchief to wipe the child's body.
The doctor had taken the pulse and had an idea in mind. "The cold air entered the body and was contaminated by the weak medicine, which is why the high fever won't go away. I'll prescribe some decoction to drink for two days first."
Yao Xin gritted her teeth and said, "Thank you, thank you."
While the doctor was writing the prescription, Mrs. Song had already packed up the child and asked, "Do you have any washed cotton wool?"
Yao Xin said hurriedly: "Yes, yes."
Mrs. Song took the fine cotton and smelled it to make sure it had no smell. She showed it to the doctor before wrapping the child in it. "Use the fine cotton to make clothes in the future. Wash it several times when you wear it. It's best to iron it with hot water. Throw away the child's previous clothes and quilts."
Yao Xin's eyes were red, "I'll remember that."
She was filled with hatred in her heart. The Fifth Prince was so cruel that he would not let the child go even after it was born.
In the afternoon, Mrs. Song came back. Zhulan listened to the whole process and asked, "Is the child feeling better?"
Mrs. Song said, "After the child took the medicine for an hour, his temperature dropped a lot and he was able to drink milk."
"That's good. I was just worried that the fever would not go away."
Zhulan was shocked. Mrs. Song brought back two pieces of news. The first was that Yao Xin's slip was caused by someone else, and the second was that the child's illness was also man-made. It seemed that as long as Zhang Yang had no children, she would keep an eye on Zhang Jinghong's children.
In the palace, Rong Chuan finished his task and looked up to see the emperor grinding a piece of jade bit by bit. Jade carving is difficult and even masters can make mistakes. It is not easy and the piece he saw was not the same as the last time.
The emperor felt that Rongchuan saw him and raised his head, "You want to learn?"
Rong Chuan shook his head. He had carved seals before and knew how difficult it was. "I just saw the emperor change one, so I took a few more glances at it."
The emperor was depressed. He thought carving was simple, but it was difficult to do it. "The last piece was ruined."
Rong Chuan did not continue to ask, but the emperor wanted to say, "Aren't you curious about what I carved?"
Rong Chuan, "I am indeed a little curious. The Emperor has been engraving it for some time."
The emperor's hands were already tired. "This is my mother's jade pendant. It was broken later. I want to carve a piece myself and bring it to the imperial tomb."
After his mother died, the only thing left for him was this jade pendant, which he had kept as a treasure. Unfortunately, when she was pretending to be stupid, in order to test whether he was really stupid, she deliberately dropped the jade pendant in front of him. Even if he picked it up, it could not be restored to its original state.
After the founding of the dynasty, the broken jade pendant was moved into the imperial mausoleum along with his mother, and he delivered it in person, so he thought that he should also have a piece with him after his death.
Rong Chuan didn't know how to start for a moment. He felt uncomfortable in his heart. He felt that the emperor shouldn't be so calm and not care about life and death. "Your Majesty, I wish you a long life."
The emperor is well aware of his own health. He has suffered a lot and has been very stressed out as an emperor. He does not dare to hope for a long life.
In the evening, Zhulan's tone was excited, with an anticipation of watching a big show, as if she was looking forward to a big movie during the Lunar New Year holiday, "Have you heard that the concubine of the Fifth Prince's Mansion is pregnant?"
Zhou Shuren sprayed the tea in his mouth. He really didn't know. He was particularly happy to see his wife when he got home. He thought there was some happy news. Unexpectedly, "Really?"
Zhu Lan was certain that Zhang Yang would not have any descendants, so she was very jealous of this move. "It was all over the news in the afternoon, so I was late to know about it."
Zhou Shuren and his wife had the same idea. He didn't need to go to prove Shi Qing's intention. He also felt that Zhang Yang would not have any descendants. "Haha, I'll wait for two days. I will go to congratulate Zhang Yang in person."
Zhulan also smiled and said, "You must say a few more words of congratulations, and your tone must be especially sincere."
Zhou Shuren nodded, "Don't worry, I'm absolutely sincere."
Zhulan's only regret was, "I can't watch the show in person. Do you think the princes will go to congratulate in person today?"
Zhou Shuren, "I can't. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will also go."
Zhulan said: "It would be nice if there was a display screen to watch it."
She had heard a lot of bickering between the Crown Prince and several other princes, but unfortunately she couldn't see it. This was much more interesting than the women at the banquet scheming against each other.
At the Fifth Prince's Mansion, Zhang Yang's face was particularly ugly. "Fourth brother, if you are here to congratulate me, I welcome you. If you are here to slap me in the face, the door is open. You can leave now."
King Liang pulled the fifth brother who stood up angrily, "Look at your temper, you are so impatient. We are brothers. Because we are brothers, your fourth brother spoke directly to you. If it were someone else, who would care about you?"
Zhang Yang wanted to vomit blood. You imply that the child is not mine, and you still care about me. Haha, no, it’s not a hint at all, but I said it directly to him. His face turned black when he thought about it.
The King of Qi sneered, "Don't think we didn't know you arranged the last time your concubine had a miscarriage. That's why we care about you, and to avoid confusing the emperor's bloodline."
It was no secret that the Qiao family had separated from Lao Wu. They naturally knew the truth about the last miscarriage, so they doubted Lao Wu's health.
King Liang looked at the motionless prince and said, "Brother Prince, please say something too."
The prince looked at his brothers and said, "You are right!"
Zhang Yang, "..."
King Qi and others, "..."
