Chapter 190 Drinking Tonic
Qingxia was trying to hold back her laughter and almost got hurt. The Crown Princess was really something. How could she say that about her husband?
The two concubines cast sympathetic eyes. The Crown Princess was really pitiful. She was widowed at such a young age. It was a waste of talent for such a beautiful woman to marry the Crown Prince.
"Don't be too sad, Princess. Why don't you ask the imperial physician to take a look? Maybe he can cure it."
Zhao Jieyu said
"Yes, I won't give up. The prince will definitely be cured."
Ye Qingge spoke with great passion and ambition, and then the few of them chatted for a while before they dispersed.
The gossip in the harem is really exciting. Ye Qingge couldn't help but sigh that she seemed to have found fun in her boring palace life.
The next day, she was wandering around the palace again. When she came to the imperial garden, she heard a woman crying. She went in the direction of the sound.
I saw Concubine Zhang kneeling and crying on a cobblestone road. Should I let her see what was going on?
Ye Qingge walked to the side of Zhang Jieyu. She was born delicate and weak, but now she was crying like a pear blossom in the rain, looking even more fragile. It was really pitiful. Ye Qingge wanted to help her up.
Zhang Jieyu shook her head and insisted on kneeling
"Jieyu Zhang, why are you kneeling here?"
"Xie Zhaoyi asked me to kneel here."
"Ah, why?"
"Last night, the Emperor asked me to sleep with him again. Today, I was strolling in the Imperial Garden and ran into Consort Xie. She got jealous and said I bumped into her while walking, so she made me kneel here as punishment. But I didn't even touch her. She fell on purpose."
After saying this, Zhang Jieyu began to cry softly again.
Xie Zhaoyi? Ye Qingge thought about it. Just because this position is one level higher than that of a concubine, can she show off her power?
Zhang Jieyu really doesn't know how to use her advantages. Since the emperor has been summoning her to sleep with him for several days, it means that the emperor is obsessed with her. Why don't you strike while the iron is hot and blow some pillow talk?
"Next time you see her, just say this"
Ye Qingge whispered a few words in her ear
Zhang Jieyu was stunned when she heard
"Ah? Is this okay?"
"The purpose is to piss her off, just listen to me and do as I say."
Ye Qingge raised her head proudly, while Zhang Jieyu nodded doubtfully.
At this time, the sun was right overhead, and Concubine Zhang's face was already red from kneeling. If she continued to kneel like this, something would definitely happen. She had to think of a way.
As she was thinking, she heard voices coming from not far away.
She took a few steps forward to check, and it turned out to be the emperor's procession, which was really a blessing from heaven. However, they did not seem to be planning to come towards them.
Ye Qingge stamped her feet anxiously, she didn't care about anything else and ran over
"Father, I pay my respects to you."
Ye Qingge ran too fast and almost couldn't stop. She fell in front of the emperor.
Ouch, this knee is probably broken
At this time, Eunuch Xu saw a figure rushing towards him, and he quickly stood in front of the emperor.
"Escort! Escort!"
Ye Qingge raised her head quickly when she heard his shout
"Father, Father, it is you, my son."
When the emperor saw clearly that the person in front of him was actually the Crown Princess, he pushed Eunuch Xu away.
Eunuch Xu was so frightened that his heart skipped a few beats. He thought it was an assassin, but it turned out to be the Crown Princess. Fortunately, it was a false alarm. He quickly wiped the sweat from his head and stepped aside.
The emperor looked at her in confusion
"Qingge, your way of greeting is very unique."
Ye Qingge said awkwardly
"Replying to Your Majesty, I just heard a woman crying when I passed by the Imperial Garden over there. I was scared, so I ran a little faster. Hehe, please don't blame me."
"A woman crying? Who's crying there?"
"I don't know either."
"Go and see"
The Emperor said to Eunuch Xu
"Here"
Eunuch Xu led a group of people to the place Ye Qingge mentioned, and saw Concubine Zhang kneeling there, already trembling.
The emperor took a few big steps to help her up
"what happened?"
When Concubine Zhang saw that the person coming was the emperor, she thought she was seeing things and said weakly:
"Your Majesty, your concubine, your concubine..."
Before she finished speaking, she fainted, and the emperor carried her back to the palace.
"Quickly send a message to the imperial physician"
"Here"
……
Ye Qingge looked at their backs and couldn't help but sigh that the emperor was worthy of being the Son of Heaven. Not only was he busy with state affairs every day, but he also had to deal with so many women in the harem. This energy was really incomparable to ordinary people. He was truly the chosen one.

In the East Palace Study
Xuan Lie reported the Crown Princess's whereabouts over the past two days to the Crown Prince.
"Master, the Crown Princess is very envious of Concubine Zhang, and even asked her how the Emperor is so powerful."
Xiao Lingye paused as he picked up the teacup.
"She really asked that?"
"Yes, and said, and said..."
"What else can you say?"
Xuan Lie avoided looking up at his master, he lowered his head and said
"You are not able to do this, Master..."
……
"Cough cough cough..."
Xiao Lingye almost choked on his own saliva when he heard this and coughed several times.
Xuan Lie saw this and quickly asked
"Master, are you okay?"
Xiao Lingye waved at him, indicating that he was fine. After he calmed down, he thought
Could it be that she was angry because Qingge was left alone in the empty room on the wedding night?
Xuan Lie was also complaining for his master. His master and the Crown Princess had never consummated their marriage, but the Crown Princess told outsiders that his master was not capable.
What kind of place is this harem? Every little thing that happens can be known to everyone. Now, the whole palace is saying that the master is not good enough.
Ugh……
At first, he was also puzzled as to why the master left the Crown Princess alone on the wedding night, even though he had finally married his beloved. Later, he found out that the master had his own plans, but the Crown Princess couldn't stand the loneliness and spread rumors everywhere, which really didn't give the master any face.
"Your Highness, Aunt Mosang requests an audience."
A young eunuch came in to report
"Let her in"
"Here"
Aunt Mosang and a little palace maid came in.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince"
"Auntie, there's no need to be so polite. Please stand up."
"Your Highness, this is the medicinal food that the Empress asked the Imperial Kitchen to prepare. It is good for your health, so I specially asked this old man to bring it to you."
"What kind of medicinal diet?"
Aunt Mo Sang signaled the maid to bring up the medicinal meal.
When Xiao Lingye opened the lid and saw the ingredients inside, he immediately understood his mother's intention. She probably heard some false news.
He said helplessly
"Leave it there, I'll drink it later"
Aunt Mo Sang said in embarrassment
"The Queen wishes His Royal Highness to drink it while it's hot; it won't be effective if it's cold."
There was no other way, Xiao Lingye could only pick up the bowl and drink it all in one breath.
Aunt Mo Sang saw it and said with a smile
"The Queen has ordered that medicinal food be delivered to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince every day."
"This……"
Xiao Lingye couldn't believe his ears. Sending it every day? That's too much.
Aunt Mo Sang didn't say anything else. Xiaoxiao left. She had to go back and report.
Xuan Lie on the side felt very sympathetic to his master. If he drank such a tonic medicine every day, something bad would happen.
Xiao Lingye felt that it was necessary to clarify things with his mother and let her know that his leg had healed.
