Oops, the male villain looked at me with affection in his eyes

She pointed at the eunuchs and maids everywhere: "You, it's all you, why didn't you take a good look at my Cheng'er? You all deserve to die!"

Shen Yuanchang stepped forward, knelt down and said, "Mother, the emperor has passed away. Please express your condolences."

Zhao Caibao's eyes were about to burst. She pointed at Shen Lancheng on the ground and said, "The emperor advised me to refrain from mourning. Aren't you heartbroken?"

Seeing Shen Yuanchang hanging his head and being scolded by the Queen Mother, Chunying hurriedly ran over to help Shen Yuanchang up: "Your Majesty, it's cold in spring, don't hurt the dragon's body."

At this time, the imperial doctor was running over with a medicine box. When he saw Shen Yuanchang, he was about to kneel down. Zhao Caibao shouted: "Why don't you come over quickly to diagnose and treat Cheng'er?!"

The imperial doctor looked up at Shen Yuanchang, saw him nodding, and then came to Shen Lancheng with the medicine box.

With just a glance, the old imperial physician knew that there was no possibility of treatment for the fourteenth prince.

The old doctor wiped his sweat and looked at the Queen Mother with wide eyes.

Seeing the Queen Mother's expression of anxiety and expectation, the old doctor hurriedly lowered his head.

He took Shen Lancheng's cold wrist and checked his pulse, then opened his eyes and looked at them, then opened the corners of his mouth to look at them.

Then, the old doctor shook his head with a sad face.

He turned and knelt down to Shen Yuanchang: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, Your Highness Fourteenth has no pulse at all. From what I saw on his face, it seems that he fell into the pool last night."

Shen Yuanchang seemed to be shaken, he closed his eyes in sorrow, and shed two lines of clear tears: "In this case, Imperial Physician Xu, please retire."

After Zhao Caibao heard this, she finally couldn't hold on any longer. She turned pale and fell backwards.

"Queen Mother!"

Xuejian caught her falling body.

Everyone was in chaos for a while.

When everything settled, Zhao Caibao woke up in the longevity palace.

Zhao Wan sat in front of Zhao Caibao, watching Zhao Caibao's eyes twitching, she hurriedly leaned forward and asked softly: "Mother, are you awake?"

Xuejian came forward with ginseng soup: "Queen Mother, would you like a bowl of ginseng soup?"

Zhao Caibao felt sad. She moved her lips for a long time before murmuring: "Where is my Cheng'er?"

Zhao Wan wiped her tears with the handkerchief and said softly: "Mother, the emperor has passed away. Now, your body is important."

When Zhao Caibao heard this, she could no longer control her tears. She beat the edge of the bed with her armored hands and cried heartbreakingly: "My Cheng'er!"

The armor was sharp and pierced into the palm of Zhao Caibao's hand. She was unaware and said bitterly: "My Cheng'er is fine, why did he fall into that pond?"

Zhao Wan paused after hearing this: "Cheng'er drank a lot of wine at the palace banquet yesterday. It was dark by the pool at night. Maybe he was not paying attention, so..."

Xue Jian saw blood flowing from Zhao Caibao's palms and quickly put the ginseng soup aside.

She carefully held Zhao Caibao's hand, covered it with a handkerchief and begged, "The Queen Mother, the fourteenth prince is the most benevolent and filial prince. He will definitely be sad when he sees you demeaning yourself like this."

Zhao Wan wiped her tears and said, "Yes, Queen Mother, the Fourteenth Old Man has left. You can't let him leave without peace of mind."

At this time, I heard the palace maid outside respectfully say: "I'm here to see you, Your Majesty."

Shen Yuanchang walked in quickly: "Mother, how are you?"

Zhao Caibao didn't seem to notice. She beat her chest and cried: "My Cheng'er was only fourteen years old, and he left so mysteriously like this. I hate it so much, I hate it so much!"

Shen Yuanchang stepped forward and said: "Don't worry, queen, I have already announced King Jing'an's audience. This matter will be carefully investigated by King Jing'an personally."

Zhao Caibao heard this and said: "Emperor, the fourteenth son lost his mother and concubine when he was a child. The Ai family raised him with their own hands. How can you ask a white-haired person from the Ai family to give away a black-haired person?"

Shen Yuanchang's eyes were slightly red: "Mother, I know your thoughts, but Cheng'er has passed away, so you have to take good care of your body."

He looked at Zhao Caibao's hand wrapped in a handkerchief, and said to Xuejian, "Xuejian, why don't you go and teach the imperial doctor?"

Xuejian stood up and hurried to the hospital.

Zhao Wan wiped away her tears, picked up the ginseng soup on the side, blew on it, scooped up a spoonful and handed it to Zhao Caibao: "Mother, please drink the ginseng soup first."

Seeing the emperor and empress looking at him earnestly, Zhao Caibao finally opened his mouth and took a sip.

Xuejian led the imperial doctor inside, and everyone watched as the imperial doctor carefully bandaged Zhao Caibao's injured palm.

Zhao Caibao closed his eyes and whispered softly, as if he was extremely tired: "You all can go down."

After everyone left, Xuejian stepped forward and gently tidied Zhao Caibao's wrinkled quilt.

Zhao Caibao pounded his chest with both hands: "Yesterday Cheng'er came late at night, why couldn't I see him?!"

Xue Jian's eyes were filled with tears and she grabbed her hand: "My queen, please don't belittle yourself anymore. This will make His Highness Fourteenth feel uneasy when he leaves."

Zhao Caibao's eyes were red and he murmured: "Ning Yu, it's that Ning Yu who killed my Cheng'er!"

As soon as Chu Ye and the courtiers entered the palace gate, they were told by the young eunuch that they did not have to go to court today.

When the courtiers heard this, they looked at me and I looked at you, and they began to discuss in low voices.

Qiao Tianliang walked over slowly, stroking his beard, and said to Chu Ye, "Does Mr. Chu know what happened today?"

After hearing this, everyone who was still gathered together in twos and threes stopped talking and looked towards Chu Ye.

Chu Ye looked at Qiao Tianliang and slowly shook his head.

At this time, a gorgeous carriage slowly came to the entrance of the palace. The whole carriage was made of golden nanmu, and the carriage was beautifully carved and painted.

Everyone looked at the blue decoration ordered by the prince on the carriage and knew that the person in the carriage was the only king with a different surname in the Tiansheng Dynasty - King Cheng Yan of Jing'an.

Cheng Yan is thirty-six years old. He is tall and has slightly dark skin. Time has not left many traces on his face. At this time, he looks like he is only in his early thirties.

Everyone was shocked when they saw him walking slowly with a serious look on his face.

King Jing'an was in charge of Zongren Mansion and Shenxing Department.

As we all know, the Zongren Mansion and the Shenxing Department are in charge of the weddings and funerals of the royal family members, as well as the maids and eunuchs who have made mistakes in each palace; and it must be no small matter to alert Cheng Yan's relatives.

Cheng Yan walked up to Chu Ye without squinting and nodded lightly to Chu Ye. Chu Ye bowed slightly and returned the greeting.

Cheng Yan strode over.

The little eunuch came up to him from a distance, nodded and bowed and said, "You are finally here, the palace is in chaos."

Cheng Yan glanced at the young eunuch coldly and asked, "What happened?"

The little eunuch looked at Chu Ye, then at King Jing'an and said: "The fourteenth prince was found drowned in the pond this morning. The queen mother has fainted. Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Chen Wenjin, the imperial censor, was following the suspicions of everyone curiously. Hearing this, his face twitched slightly. He looked at the people on the side and forced himself to endure it.

If anyone looks closely at this moment, they can see that the faint smile on the face of this civil servant, who is naturally smiling, has cracked, and the corners of his usually gentle eyes have become slightly red.

Chu Ye looked at everyone's expressions and said calmly: "Since there are important matters in the palace and there is no need to go to court, let's all disperse."

Qiao Tianliang said: "Let's all go back to the house."

Chen Wenjin blinked hard and said goodbye to everyone.
