After the heroine was robbed, save the paranoid villain

The imperial physician took the young master's pulse carefully and found nothing wrong.

Just like the maids said, he didn't have a cold, his stomach and intestines were normal, his skin was fair and clean, he didn't have any skin disease, and when he cried his voice was loud and full of energy.

What kind of disease could such a child have? It is normal for a child of a few months old to cry and make a fuss.

Perhaps it was because the seasons were changing and the weather was getting warmer, and the little prince felt uncomfortable because he was wrapped too thickly, so he would cry when someone hugged him.

Concubine Xia touched the fabric of the little prince's clothes and found that the clothes were indeed a little bit not breathable and a little too thick. For such a young child, the clothes should be light, soft and close-fitting; style and color were secondary.

Concubine Xia asked her maids to bring out two pieces of fine cotton gauze. This kind of cotton cloth was more expensive and rarer than the finest silk, and the workmanship was extremely complicated. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the emperor liked to use it to make undergarments to wear next to his body.

It's just that it's not dyed, so it doesn't look as bright and beautiful as silk, and it doesn't look good when used to make outerwear.

She also asked someone to bring out the Sixth Prince's childhood clothes.

After so many years, the Sixth Prince's childhood clothes are still well preserved, and seem to still retain the scent of incense from many years ago.

Old clothes are the softest and most comfortable to wear. Concubine Xia took off her armor and changed the clothes and diapers for the young prince herself: "Han'er is too light and a little weak, not as strong as Yiran."

She was about to put the young master's shirt aside when she discovered a few small blood spots on the light apricot-colored clothes. These blood spots were not even as big as corn grains and could not be seen at all without careful observation.

Concubine Xia narrowed her eyes, and suddenly some bad guesses came to her mind. She asked the imperial physician to touch the young master all over his body.

When the imperial physician touched a few places, the little prince, who had been quiet, burst into tears.

The doctor's expression changed slightly: "The young master has been pierced with a needle."

Xia couldn't believe it: "What do you mean?"

Concubine Xia was more experienced and understood what the imperial physician said immediately. She called the nannies and wet nurses who were taking care of the young master and asked, "Who held the young master yesterday?"

The maids and wet nurses were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground and recounted the names of the people who had held the prince yesterday.

There are really too many. Yesterday at the Liang Mansion, seven or eight female relatives hugged him.

The nurse trembled and said, "Princess Rui came to see the prince at noon. As soon as she left, the prince started crying."

Xia cried and said, "It must be her! Last time at Han'er's full moon banquet, she called me a pig and even fought with me. In the end, she was beaten by my fifth brother and has been holding a grudge against me ever since!"

Anger appeared in Xia Fei's eyes.

Normally, when Wei Ruxuan acted like a spoiled brat, Concubine Xia would just pretend not to see it. There were many women like her in and outside the palace, so there was no need to take it seriously.

But I didn’t expect that Wei Ruxuan could be so vicious as to attack a baby who was only a few months old!

Concubine Xia hurriedly asked the imperial physician: "Can you take out the needles in the young master's body? How many are there in total?"

The doctor hesitated and said, "There are three in total."

It was discovered not too late, and the needle had not entered the internal organs. It was possible to force the needle out through acupuncture and massage, but the process was too painful.

If such a young child could not bear the pain and died of suffocation, the imperial physician would be held responsible. This situation is extremely rare and no one can guarantee that it will not happen.

Concubine Xia didn't dare to make a big fuss and report it to the Imperial Hospital. This was the emperor's eldest grandson, and there were so many eyes watching him, wanting to put him to death.

The imperial physician invited this time was also one that Concubine Xia trusted.

If the case was reported to the Imperial Medical Service and other doctors were asked to treat the case, the Empress and the Queen Mother might give a hint, fearing that the young master might survive the moment, but would be left with a hidden disease and die later.

"Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by heaven." Concubine Xia smiled bitterly, "There are many children in the royal family who cannot be raised. If the child cannot survive, it is because the child is unlucky. Doctor Hong, if you can cure him, go ahead and do it. I swear on my life that if anything happens to the young master, I will never hold you accountable."

With Concubine Xia's words, the imperial physician felt relieved.

Quarter of an hour later, the baby's cry was deafening and his skin turned purple. The imperial physician placed the last bloody silver needle on the plate.

Concubine Xia and Lady Xia's eyes turned red from crying, and they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After the imperial physician told her some things to pay attention to, Concubine Xia wiped her eyes, asked the palace maid to prepare a large sum of money for the imperial physician, and sent him away.

Xia was so distressed that she hurried to hold the child.

Xia Fei stopped her: "Don't touch him, just sit still first."

"We must let the emperor know! A vicious woman like Wei should not be alive!" Xia cried until her voice was hoarse, "Aunt, let's take Han'er and go find our father!"

Concubine Xia said: "The maids and the wet nurses are all our people. There were so many people holding Han'er that day. You said she was the one who did it. Do you have any evidence?"

The young master was still crying, and Xia was also crying.

"Man'er, go back later. I will leave Han'er here for you to raise. Don't take Yiran out to show off casually in the future. Every family has children, but few take them out to show off to others every day."

Concubine Xia glanced at the wet nurse and the maid who had been kneeling beside her, and said in a tired voice, "For not taking good care of the prince, drag them away and give them thirty lashes, and drive them out of the prince's mansion."

After hearing what Concubine Xia said, Xia was shocked: "No, Han'er must stay with me!"

"It's not like you can't see him. You can see him whenever you want to pay your respects in the future. You're too young to raise a child. Raise Yiran first. Maybe in a year or two, you can have another child."

Xia's eyes were swollen from crying, and she returned to the Sixth Prince's Palace with only her personal maid.

Xiao Jingshuo didn't see his beloved son come back, so he went to ask Xia out of curiosity.

Xia told everything hesitantly.

Xiao Jingshuo froze in place for a long time.

Xia cried and said, "Someday, if Auntie softens her heart, maybe she will let Han'er come back."

"Forget it." Xiao Jingshuo patted Xia's back, "Let mother take care of the child. We can also look after the child when we pay our respects. We also have Yiran at home, so let's take good care of Yiran first."

Xiao Jingshuo didn't know what to say, but he felt that it might be better for the child to be raised by his biological mother, Concubine Xia, rather than in his own house. Since Concubine Xia could raise a prince, raising the crown prince would not be a problem.

The princess is a girl, not as hated as the prince, so she can be kept by his side with herself and Xia.

He and Xia were too young and reckless. They were happy to be parents but didn't know how to protect their children.

They all knew that the murderer was Wei Ruxuan. The baby couldn't speak, and the nanny and wet nurse didn't see the whole thing, so they couldn't produce any evidence.

Wei Ruxuan has Queen Zheng by her side. Even if Queen Mother Zheng annoys Wei Ruxuan, she will definitely protect her for the sake of the Fifth Prince. When the time comes, the Queen Mother will turn black into white and blame the enemy, and Xiao Jingshuo will not be able to deal with it at all.

Xiao Jingshuo was feeling angry and frustrated. He didn't know who to talk to about this incident, so he asked Xiao Chengji to come out and complain to his third brother.
