Come on, Your Highness

Chapter 25 Boundless guilt

He Xichao knelt under His Highness Qingzheng, his hair was wet by the autumn rain and stuck to his cheek, making his palm-sized face even smaller.Not only the hair, but also the clothes were wet. Although there was no dripping water, it was very damp and cold in this autumn night, and the young body shivered slightly. I don't know if it was shivering from the cold or nervousness.

"The imperial doctor said that the eldest prince was seriously injured, and he might have a fever at night. There was no one around the eldest prince, and Xi Chao was worried, so he begged his grandfather to send me back. When I came back, the eldest prince had already had a low-grade fever. The fever would get worse and worse, so I asked the maid to ask Concubine Shu to bring the eldest prince a doctor, but after waiting for an hour, the doctor still didn't come..." He Xichao started to cry as he spoke, tears streaming down his cheeks , making his pale face from the cold even more pitiful, "The eldest prince is hot all over now, his hands are hot, and he is already burned. Your majesty, after thinking about it, I don't know who to ask for help, so I can only go boldly." Main Hall, please save the First Prince!"

After He Xichao finished speaking, he knelt on the ground, crying more and more sadly, vividly interpreting the reading of a anxious and frightened little companion.

After hearing this, Emperor Tiangan turned his gaze towards the open palace door, and walked away without saying a word.

Xiao Ming gradually fell asleep, Concubine Shu walked out of the bedroom and asked, "Are you still there?"

Xue Ling immediately replied, "I'm still there, I'm in a hurry. Madam, this servant said something bold. Now that you are in charge of the palace affairs, if something bad happens to the eldest prince, you will be the first person the emperor will ask you to blame. This servant knows that you are angry, but We still have to focus on the overall situation, otherwise Zhongcui Palace may be the last one to get the cheapest."

Xue Ling has been by Concubine Shu's side for many years, and she is deeply trusted. Concubine Shu can get to this point without her giving her ideas.

Concubine Shu thought for a while, then nodded, "Then let's go, and ask the imperial physician Jing'an Palace to come."

Xue Ling immediately took orders, but before she could leave the palace, a court lady hurried in, "Your Majesty, the emperor is driving towards Jing'an Palace!"

Immediately, Concubine Shu's face turned pale.

Xiao Hong didn't know how long He Xichao had been there, he just felt that he couldn't remember anything in a daze.

His whole body was in pain, sore and sore, and still very cold. The fuzziness of consciousness made him unaware that he had moaned. He wanted to move, but he didn't have any strength.

The maid who was taking care of her was so frightened that her face turned pale, she was about to burst into tears, and anxiously didn't know what to do, but neither the maid who went to Fanghua Palace nor He Xichao who left without saying a word came back.

They could only change cold handkerchiefs one by one diligently, but Xiao Hong's whole body was still hot.

"Uncomfortable...I'm going to die..."

Suddenly there was the sound of hurried footsteps, and then a tall bright yellow figure appeared in the palace. The palace people were startled, and immediately knelt on the ground together.

Emperor Tiangan's eyes immediately saw Xiao Hong lying on the bed, trembling all over.

Xiao Hong's face was flushed, his eyes were closed, he stretched out one hand to the edge of the bed, his five fingers opened and closed unconsciously, as if he was reaching for something, his lips squirmed, as if he was talking.

Emperor Tiangan approached the edge of the bed, bent down, and reached out to touch Xiao Hong's face, only to hear a very low, very low murmur, "Mother... Hong'er hurts..."

In an instant, Emperor Tiangan's hand was in the air.

A sourness rushed into his heart and lungs, Emperor Tiangan frowned and endured it, and touched Xiao Hong's forehead with his hand, it was hot and startling.

He almost lost his composure and yelled out: "Where is the imperial doctor! Why did you arrive!"

As soon as Eunuch Huang saw Xiao Hong's appearance, he clicked in his heart, secretly thinking that it's not good, how can people be like this!

Hearing the almost thunderous roar of Emperor Tiangan, he immediately went out to urge, "Hurry up, the imperial doctor can't go fast, even if you fight, you have to bring him here immediately!"

The imperial doctor ran wildly in the rainy night, without even panting a few times, he was urged to feel his pulse.

The cause of Xiao Hong's fever was very clear, and he was well prepared. He prescribed the medicine and gave Xiao Hong massage and acupuncture. After a lot of tossing, the medicine was decocted.

Emperor Tiangan was sitting at the head of Xiao Hong's bed, the maid brought medicine, he took it without thinking, and fed it himself.

"Hong'er, open your mouth and drink the medicine quickly, and you will feel comfortable after drinking the medicine." Emperor Tiangan's voice at this moment was extremely gentle, completely different from the angry and reprimanded voice in Bai Ri.

Xiao Hong opened his eyes in vain, as if he was a little uncertain, "Father?"

Emperor Tiangan immediately replied: "I am here, drink the medicine first."

The imperial physician is worthy of being an imperial physician. After some diagnosis and treatment, Xiao Hong's mind became clear, and his complexion also improved.

Xiao Hong's buttocks still couldn't sit down, he was still lying on his stomach, he could only lift his head up hard, Emperor Tiangan brought the medicine bowl to his mouth, and he drank it slowly from the bowl.

Seeing the empty bowl put down, Xiao Hong burst into tears, and said, "Father, my son didn't hit hard..."

He Xichao stood at the door, looked at the lanterns outside Jing'an Palace from far to near, and smiled lowly.

Only now, the day lily is cold.

Xiao Hong's medicine contained the ingredients of calming the nerves and falling asleep, and the effect of the medicine came into play very quickly, and Xiao Hong became confused without saying a few words.

Until he fell asleep, he still firmly held Emperor Tiangan's hand, as if he was greedy for the last bit of warmth, and the latter never wanted to withdraw it.

Emperor Tiangan sat in front of his bed all the time, looking down at Xiao Hong fixedly, no one was in front of him, the guilt and distress in his eyes were no longer hidden, just pouring out.

In front of him was the picture of the forty sticks, the long sticks fell, the count increased, and there was an unbearable muffled hum from his small body, but from the beginning to the end Xiao Hong didn't say a word, didn't yell for mercy, only Those black, bright and clear eyes were full of unyielding.

The people around, the faces, and the expressions on them, Emperor Tiangan recalled now and found that he remembered them all.

There was no sympathy, no intolerance, only happiness and reassurance, and the evil thoughts twisted and magnified in Emperor Tiangan's mind, and finally made him sullen.

This anger was aimed at the others who fanned the flames, and also at himself who ordered forty boards to calm the situation as soon as possible without giving any excuses.

Thinking of the queen's entrustment before her death, Emperor Tiangan admitted for the first time that he was not a competent father.

Eunuch Huang walked in lightly, and whispered, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu is here."

A stern look instantly appeared in Emperor Tiangan's eyes, and that look made Eunuch Huang's heart skip a beat.

But soon he calmed down, and asked softly, "Kneeling?"

"Kneel down, right at the gate of the hall."

Emperor Tiangan raised his other hand to gently brush Xiao Hong's hair by his ear, with tenderness in his eyes, he said, "I remember that before the Queen left, she asked Concubine Shu to take good care of Hong'er. It seems to have done a good job, but I always thought it was Hong Er who was not up to date."

Eunuch Huang lowered his eyes and bowed his head, not daring to speak.

Emperor Tiangan said to himself: "The queen has lost her eyes, and I have lost her eyes too...let Concubine Shu go to the side hall and wait."

He slowly withdrew his hand, seeing Xiao Hong wrinkled his face, as if he was about to wake up, he patted Xiao Hong's back without a teacher, and comforted him in a low voice: "Hong'er, I will come when I go, you Take a good rest, and after you sleep, you will be able to see me when you open your eyes."

Probably father and son bonded, Xiao Hong gradually calmed down, Emperor Tiangan heaved a sigh of relief and said: "He Xichao, let him come in to accompany Hong'er."

His body was a little stiff after sitting for a long time, he got up slowly and walked out of the bedroom as lightly as possible.

"Your Majesty, how is Hong'er?"

Concubine Shu is not decorated with Zhuchai, she has no makeup, her plain white face is full of anxiety and worry, as if she is really worried about Xiao Hong.

Emperor Tiangan also thought so before, but after today, he overturned this cognition.

He didn't get angry, but said calmly: "The imperial doctor came in time, and the fever has subsided."

Concubine Shu's heart was relieved in an instant, and she said happily: "Thank God, fortunately Hong'er is fine, otherwise this concubine is really..."

Before she could finish speaking, Emperor Tiangan asked, "How is Ming'er?"

Speaking of Xiao Ming, Concubine Shu burst into tears again, and replied: "Ming'er was frightened. He is young and unstable, and has never been beaten so hard. Today, he was so frightened that he couldn't sleep well. , always screaming for pain, and the concubine can only take care of him for a moment." She glanced at Emperor Tiangan carefully, and continued, "The concubine is all on Ming'er, and Fanghua Palace doesn't dare to disturb him. Rather, he neglected Hong Er's side, and when the concubine knew about it and immediately ordered someone to call for the imperial physician, the emperor had already got up and drove to Jing'an Palace."

How about Xiao Ming's injury, the imperial physician had already put the case on the emperor's dragon case, and Emperor Tiangan knew it all.

Xiao Hong's tearful voice, "Father, I didn't hit hard", and listening to Concubine Shu complaining secretly, Emperor Tiangan only felt it was extremely harsh.

The princes in this palace, including the princes of other palaces outside, are taken care of by their mothers, but when it comes to his eldest son, even an imperial physician has to spend the whole night in the rain in order to invite him, otherwise...

Emperor Tiangan closed his eyes and said: "Since Concubine Shu has limited energy and can't take care of the palaces well, let's put aside the affairs of the harem for the time being and let Concubine Lan take care of it for you."

As soon as this remark came out, Concubine Shu was stunned. She didn't care about complaining. She knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, this concubine made a mistake. Concubine admits that Hong'er hit Ming'er. Concubine has resentment in her heart and didn't respond in time." Please ask the imperial doctor. But when the concubine calms down, I will order someone to go there immediately! Your Majesty, this concubine really doesn't know that Hong'er's condition is so serious, otherwise I wouldn't dare to delay even if I kill this concubine, please forgive me!"

If Concubine Shu loses her palace affairs, not to mention losing the imperial concubine position that is about to be obtained, even if she is in the harem, her position will be lost.

"It seems that you really don't know where you are wrong." Emperor Tiangan took a deep look at her, then he waved his hand as if he didn't want to say any more, "Don't treat me as a fool, go, this time I will forgive you , next time... you can do it yourself."

He didn't seem to want to say any more, and left the side hall directly. Concubine Liu Shu was kneeling on the ground in a daze, and suddenly her body relaxed, she sat on the ground and closed her eyes.

Xue Ling took a peek inside, and when she saw Concubine Shu who was lying on the ground, she was startled, "Your Majesty!"

Concubine Shu came back to her senses, her face distorted immediately, she stood up following Xue Ling's hand, and said bitterly, "Let's go back to Fanghua Palace."
