The Adventures of the Crying Princess
Chapter 64 Empress Liu
An hour later, Yuwen Ji knelt in front of the gate of Chen'an Palace, holding Bai Yimeng who was pretending to be unconscious.
"Your Highness, what happened to you? Why is your arm covered in blood? Why is the little princess in this state?" Eunuch Chen walked down to check, and when he saw Bai Yimeng in a coma, he couldn't help but scream.
"Please inform the eunuch that I want to see my father."
The noise outside was too loud and had already reached Emperor Chengde's ears. The old emperor frowned slightly and said, "Come in."
As soon as he entered the hall, Yuwen Ji knelt down again and said, "Your Majesty, I bow to you, Father."
Seeing his son covered in a mess and with disheveled hair, Emperor Chengde was puzzled. Then he saw Bai Yimeng unconscious in his arms and was shocked. "What happened? Did you two fight? That can't be possible."
"My father, someone tried to steal the things bestowed by the emperor. Xiaobai fought desperately to protect these treasures, and in the end... it turned out like this."
Under the influence of Bai Yimeng, Yuwen Ji's ability to make up lies has obviously improved a lot.
Chengde looked at the two of them and said, "Don't you have secret guards around you? Besides, Yi Tong is quite capable, so why would he do this?"
"Father, there are hundreds of people, all of them are experts, how can Yi Tong resist them?
By the way, if Yi Tong and the secret guards were not present, you would not be able to see your son..."
Emperor Chengde had never seen his third son cry before, and for a moment he was at a loss, "Hurry up and let me see where you're hurt?"
"My son is fine. It was Xiaobai. She was badly injured in order to protect my son."
Upon hearing that his son was fine, Emperor Chengde breathed a sigh of relief. The next second, he saw blood dripping from his arm. "You mean fine? Quickly call the imperial physician."
Emperor Chengde rarely showed his tender side, especially towards his youngest son.
Yuwen Ji described the scene vividly. That scene was already very explosive without any exaggeration.
After listening to Yuwen Ji's description, the old emperor was inevitably a little excited. "Little Chenzi, inform the cabinet to draft an imperial edict, asking the Ministry of Justice to quickly investigate the assassination of Prince Yi."
Eunuch Chen looked at Yuwen Ji hesitantly and reminded him in a low voice, "Your Majesty, Prince Yi is the Minister of Justice. You see, at this juncture, you still ask the prince to try the case..."
"Then leave it to Jingzhao Prefecture."
"Yes, Your Majesty is wise." Eunuch Chen turned around and went out to convey the order.
Not long after, Imperial Doctor Zhao arrived and after greeting everyone, he began to take Bai Yimeng's pulse.
Emperor Chengde looked at Bai Yimeng and Yuwen Ji nervously, his heart in turmoil.
"Your Majesty, Princess Jing'an suffered several injuries, but luckily none of them were fatal. She fainted due to excessive blood loss. Prince Yi was also in the same situation, but fortunately the prince has a good foundation and is not seriously injured."
Emperor Chengde nodded slightly, "Old Third, take the little girl to the side hall to rest for a while. After you take the medicine and feel better, you can return to the palace."
At this moment, Bai Yimeng murmured in pain, her voice a little hoarse. Emperor Chengde felt bad, walked up to her and gently touched her head, "You are pitiful too."
"Father, please make a decision for the little girl. The Bai family has shed enough blood."
Emperor Chengde nodded slightly, "I understand. You take her to rest first." About an hour later, Bai Yimeng woke up slowly.
She came to the main hall and apologized, "I am guilty of losing the gift from the emperor. Please punish me, Your Majesty."
"You won't even kneel down to plead guilty? Never mind. If I really get into a fight with you, you won't be able to save your ten heads.
Just for a piece of stone and a few pieces of paper, you made yourself like this? How poor are you, or have you never seen good things? "Emperor Mingde sighed, "If something really happens, how can I explain it to your father?"
"You were so good to him, but why didn't you just kill him?" Bai Yimeng acted as if he had given up.
"Bai Yinan should not be busy recently, don't worry, little girl. I can't explain it to you clearly, so let your brother talk to you." Knowing that the little girl was deliberately making trouble, the old emperor was in the wrong and could only bring up Bai Yinan to scare her.
Bai Yimeng smiled and came to Chengde's side. "I'm young, so don't be like me. If you don't want to bring disaster to your family, don't look for my elder brother."
Emperor Chengde had no intention of arguing with her, but since this was mentioned, he had to say a few words, "I will give you and the Bai family an explanation about your father's matter. Don't worry."
After drinking the medicine, Yuwen Ji and Bai Yimeng were about to leave. The queen got the news and rushed over.
After five years, Bai Yimeng saw the queen for the first time. She immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Your servant greets Her Majesty the Queen."
Seeing Bai Yimeng's short and small appearance, Empress Liu burst into tears, "My son, why do you look like this? Your face looks so bad, and you are so thin and small. You have suffered so much over the years. My son, you make me so sad."
How could Empress Liu not feel sorry for the child of her best friend, whom she had watched grow up?
When the Bai family was in trouble, the imperial decree stated that the entire family would be executed. It was only after Empress Liu begged and knelt outside the Chen'an Palace for a whole day that the three Bai brothers and Bai Yimeng were saved.
Logically speaking, the Bai family's children would be fine, but unfortunately the villains interfered.
Because of this, Empress Liu fell seriously ill and lost the tenth princess in her belly. From then on, her body became weak.
"Your Majesty, I'm fine. Please don't cry. How did your body become like this? Can I take your pulse?"
In front of the queen, Bai Yimeng put away his cynical side, bowed and saluted properly, and spoke in a very polite manner.
Emperor Chengde looked at him with a sour look, "Monkey, you are quite knowledgeable about the rules, aren't you? How come you don't know how to behave when it comes to me?"
"Your Majesty and my mother have been kind to our sisters and our Bai family, so this is what we should do." Bai Yimeng came to Empress Liu's side,
He took out a handkerchief and placed it on the queen's wrist. "Your Majesty was injured by excessive worry in her early years. If you trust me, I can prescribe a prescription for you. I can't say that the medicine will cure the disease, but it can relieve some of the pain."
"You can treat illnesses? That's right, you are Wan'an Gu's disciple, so it's only natural that you can do so.
It’s just…your master, why…why didn’t he heal you?”
Bai Yimeng held the Queen's hand and deliberately joked, "Your Majesty, it's hard for a doctor to heal himself. I can treat other people's illnesses, but I can't treat my own. It's ironic. Anyway, my illness is not serious, and I will get better slowly."
The queen hugged her, touched her head and face, and seemed to have a thousand words to say, but she was choked with sobs.
Emperor Chengde lowered his eyes, "Night Pearl, I did it on purpose, just to make you feel afraid, but it was just to scare you, I didn't mean to hurt you. As for the two calligraphy books, they are indeed my treasures, and I usually don't want to give them away."
"Now, Your Majesty, do you want to reward me with a real night-shining pearl?" Bai Yimeng felt that it would be a bit unreasonable not to bring something back after suffering such a great loss.
"You, please express your gratitude first. Thank you nicely, just like you paid your respects to the Queen. Be polite. Then I will reward you." Emperor Chengde felt a little guilty, as he knew he had treated his old friend badly and owed the Bai family.
Bai Yimeng mentioned what happened in the past and talked about the Queen's kindness to the Bai family. Emperor Chengde felt a little uncomfortable.
He was not an ungrateful person. Zhenbei Hou was not only his best friend, but they had also fought together on the battlefield in their early years.
After waking up, he still felt bad about what happened that year, especially when he saw Bai Yimeng.
What's more, this monkey looks very much like her parents, and one can always see their appearance when they were young in her.
"No. If you think I have offended you, you can complain to my elder brother."
Bai Yimeng looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. She turned her head and pulled Yuwen Ji, "Let's go."
"it is good."
Bai Yimeng bowed to the Queen but ignored Emperor Chengde.
Emperor Chengde laughed angrily, "She has the same temper as her father, stubborn. Little Chenzi, go and give her the reward. This monkey says no, but she probably wants it so badly in her heart. If I really don't give it to her, I'm afraid she won't even talk to me next time she sees me."
The queen stepped forward and consoled him, "A child is still a child after all. Your Majesty, give her some time, and she will understand your difficulties."
Emperor Chengde pulled the queen to sit down and took the prescription written by Bai Yimeng from the queen's hand. "Can this monkey really treat illnesses?"
