Chapter 353 His mother's identity is actually...
Shen Yindi didn't have time to be shocked. She quickly supported Concubine De and said with concern: "Don't worry, Concubine De. Calm down first and tell me what happened."
Concubine De quickly forced herself to calm down.
She choked up and said, "Last night after midnight, Xin'er suddenly had a fever, vomited, and had convulsions. I have summoned the imperial physician to see her. He prescribed some medicine, but the symptoms still haven't improved much."
"Let's go in and take a look first."
"Did you eat anything last night?"
"It's just daily meals. Every time the imperial kitchen delivers them, I check them and there's nothing unusual."
Concubine De was very cautious in all aspects regarding her royal son.
To survive safely in the harem, one must have his own methods.
"Is there anything left of the Eighth Prince's food?"
"They all left after dinner last night."
Concubine De looked regretful.
"It's okay, I'll take his pulse first." Shen Yindi has a way to treat him anyway.
"it is good."
Then they came to Chu Xin's room.
The ten-year-old boy's face was red because of the fever.
He smelled of alcohol, probably from the physical cooling method used by Doctor Xu.
Without further ado, Shen Yindi sat down beside the bed and immediately took his pulse.
The pulse is a little weak, but there is no sign of poisoning.
"Empress Defei, please go out for a moment. I will examine the Eighth Prince. If there is a way, I will treat him in advance."
"Help me guard the door. No matter who it is, even the emperor, don't let him in. I can't be disturbed!" Shen Yindi said solemnly.
After saying that, she looked at Chu Yan and also reminded him, "My Lord, please help me take a look too."
"Catch anyone who seems suspicious first."
Chu Yan nodded: "Yes, I know."
Then they all went out.
Shen Yindi locked the door.
She took Chu Xin into her medical space.
She first drew blood from Chu Xin and did a blood test.
Then the body was scanned with an instrument.
After the examination report came out, Shen Yindi frowned slightly.
She quickly prescribed him some medicine and fed it to him.
He was given two more small butt shots.
Outside the door, Concubine De was a little anxious. She had hardly slept all night, and her eyes were full of bloodshot, but she didn't feel tired at all.
Chu Yan also stood at the door, observing everything with his sharp eyes.
"Empress Defei, this time our father has replaced all the people in your palace. You should be familiar with them, right?" Chu Yan asked in a low voice.
It has been quite some time.
"I know everything. I have also sent people to check their backgrounds. There is nothing wrong with them." Defei was very confident.
"Is it convenient to gather people here now?"
Chu Yan thought, if there is still a problem with the person sent by his father, then it would be really terrifying to think about it!
"it is good!"
Concubine De called the head palace maid and asked all her current palace maids to come over.
There were palace maids, eunuchs and maids, a total of twenty people.
"Third Prince, everyone is here!"
She sent someone to count the items, and found that no one was missing.
"Did the Eighth Prince go to the academy during the day?"
"Yes, I went. Today I didn't attend the class with Tutor Xu. Instead, I was in the Imperial College." Defei said seriously.
"But I have seriously instructed the servant who follows him."
Most people wouldn't be so brave as to murder the royal heir, and that means the entire nine generations of the clan will be killed!
Concubine De believed that she was a very cautious person and would never allow the murder of her son to happen.
But no matter how careful she was, her Xin'er was still murdered!
First it was her, and now it’s her Xiner. It seems that the existence of this mother and son has threatened the status of some people!
It must be because her Xin'er is too favored by the emperor!
She couldn't continue to sit there and wait for death!
"Let's wait until A Di comes out. As long as she is here, Eighth Prince will be fine." Chu Yan comforted her.
"Thank you, Third Prince."
"I used to have some friendship with your mother, but you may not know that the person who had the best relationship with your mother was the queen."
"She was the one who brought your mother into the palace and presented her to the Emperor."
Defei calmed down and said lightly.
A hint of shock flashed across Chu Yan's eyes. He had no idea about this and no one had told him about it.
His brows furrowed slightly.
Could it be that his mother's identity is...
Chu Yan didn't say it. The answer was already obvious.
Concubine De continued, "But the Queen probably didn't expect that the Emperor would dote on your mother so much, for ten years. Even after you were born, the Emperor loved your mother as well."
"Perhaps she feels that your mother has grown too powerful and doesn't listen to her orders. Or perhaps your status has affected her son, and her attitude towards your mother has also changed."
"I know the Queen's character very well. On the surface, she seems well-educated and selfless. But in fact, she is scheming, narrow-minded, and cruel. As long as her position is threatened, she will never show mercy."
"Your mother's death was definitely not an accident."
Perhaps Defei was stimulated, she spoke very frankly and trusted Chu Yan.
Chu Yan's face looked a little gloomy.
"Your Highness, do you know that the relationship between our Great Chu and the Zhaoyue Kingdom was very good back then?"
"Yes, back then, Zhaoyue was a small vassal state of our Great Chu. The King of Zhaoyue often brought his queen, several princes and concubines to the imperial capital, and the emperor always entertained them warmly every time."
"The Queen is responsible for entertaining the female family, Prince."
"Then do you remember that there was a prince named Yu Ruoyang in Zhaoyue Kingdom?" Chu Yan continued to ask.
"Yu Ruoyang? Of course I remember. Speaking of which, he should have some relationship with the Queen. I'm not sure whether the Emperor knows about their relationship."
"His mother was presented to the King of Zhaoyue by the Queen."
The information that Concubine De said was really important to Chu Yan.
These old stories can no longer be found.
Ever since they fell out with the Zhaoyue Kingdom, the Emperor has not allowed them to mention it again.
I didn’t expect the connection was so deep!
In other words, only concubines with more seniority like Concubine De knew about it.
"Thank you, Madam Defei, for telling me this!"
"You are welcome, Third Prince. The Third Princess saved my life, so I will not refuse if I can help you."
"Even though what happened back then, I still believe that the Third Prince is an innocent man and would never do such a thing!" Defei said firmly.
Now someone wants to murder her Xiner, she will never tolerate it any longer.
Blindly giving in will not bring peace and security.
Now that her son is the crown prince, she is still not satisfied and wants to eliminate all those who pose a threat to him.
So vicious!
Concubine De has already blamed all of this on the Queen. For the sake of her son, she can't just sit there and wait for death!
"Thank you for your trust, Concubine De." Chu Yan said in a low voice.
At this moment, the door creaked open and Shen Yindi came out.
"Princess Third, how is Xin'er doing?"
