Princess Jingning said, “Why do you ask?”
Su Xiaoxiao blinked and said without changing her expression, “I’m curious.”
With Princess Jingning’s status, she should be admonishing Su Xiaoxiao. Such a royal secret was not something a little girl like her could be curious about.
She swallowed the words.
Forget it. This girl was so bold. She had been spoiled by her.
Princess Jingning looked helplessly at a certain bold little girl and said, “In my father’s heart, the imperial power is the most important. He won’t touch anyone or anything that can threaten his throne.”
Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin. “Oh.”
Emperor Jing Xuan actually did not have any improper thoughts about Bai Xihe. She was not used to him suddenly not being melodramatic.
Princess Jingning glanced at her and said jealously, “You’re very concerned about the Grand Empress Dowager.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Am I?”
Princess Jing Ning said, “Yes.”
Which person who grew up in the palace did not have the ability to read someone from their body language?
Oh, except for that idiot Hui An.
The way the little girl looked at the Grand Empress Dowager was different from how she looked at other strangers.
Princess Jing Ning’s expression darkened. “Don’t tell me you want her as your backer?”
She muttered, “Girl, am I unable to protect you? ”
Su Xiaoxiao said to herself, “Why do I feel like there’s a fire in the backyard…”
Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, “No!”
Princess Jingning was not easy to fool. She was a smart woman, and he could not casually brush her off.
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and decided to reveal something. “Princess, the Grand Empress Dowager looks like an old friend of mine.” Princess Jing Ning was curious. “Which old friend?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “My mother.”
Her mother in her previous life.
Princess Jing Ning knew Su Xiaoxiao’s background. Her mother had passed away when she was very young. She and her brother had been raised by Su Cheng.
Thinking of this, Princess Jing Ning couldn’t bear to blame her.
“Your mother must be a great beauty,” Princess Jingning said.
Bai Xihe had an ethereal charm. Those who could look like her must be beautiful.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t deny this.
Because in her impression, Madam Li was indeed a great beauty.
The two of them sat in the carriage for a while. Princess Jingning apologized for rushing back to the palace on her first visit and said that she would definitely invite her and the three little ones to the palace as guests next time.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and thought to herself that it was enough to invite her.
It was better for the three little ones not to enter the palace. It would be a different story if Princess Jingning’s biological father, the emperor, bumped into them.
After bidding farewell to Princess Jingning, Su Xiaoxiao went to the medical center.
The officials and the students who were injured at the event location of the small attic accident a few days ago recovered one after another. Other than two seriously injured patients who were still receiving treatment, the others had all returned.
The patients in Benevolence Hall were unhappy.
“I say, what’s wrong with your Benevolence Hall? Are your medical skills good enough? Others have already recovered, but why does our leg still hurt so much?”
“That’s right. My colleague went home yesterday. I can’t walk today. I clearly remember that he was more injured than me…”
“Could it be that you deliberately delayed treating us and want us to pay for a few more days of medicine?”
When Second Master Hu heard this, he was furious and called Shopkeeper Wu over. “What happened?”
Manager Wu said, “Don’t they know how injured they are? The doctors of our Benevolence Hall are brilliant. When the government office sent the patients over, they gave us all those who were seriously injured and sent those with light injuries to Number One Hall. Of course, their patients recovered quickly!” Second Master Hu glared at him. “What about those two who were about to
He was referring to the two seriously injured patients still receiving treatment in the Number One Hall.
Manager Wu was embarrassed. “It’s just the two of them. The others are all lightly injured. The two of them haven’t recovered yet.”
Second Master Hu frowned and said, “Keep an eye on Number One Hall!”
Manager Wu looked troubled. “I can’t… I can’t.”
Ever since Manager Sun came next door, none of the spies they sent could successfully enter Number One Hall.
The other party’s eyes were very vicious. He spotted them accurately!
“Second Uncle! Second Uncle, I want to eat sugar-fried chestnuts!”
A seven-year-old fatty rushed in.
The little fatty lay on the ground and rolled around. “I don’t care, I don’t care, I want it! I want to eat sugar-fried chestnuts!”
Shopkeeper Wu looked at Imperial Physician Hut?s youngest son and suddenly had an idea. “Boss, I have it!”
Second Master Hu asked, “What’s wrong?”
Manager Wu smiled sinisterly. “The way to sneak into the Number One Hall!”
Su Xiaoxiao went to see two seriously injured patients. The two of them had passed the critical period and their wounds had healed well. The fractures no longer hurt. In three days, they would be able to go home to recuperate.
“Ying’er, have you seen my master?”
“Organizing the herbs in the storeroom!”
Su Xiaoxiao went to the storeroom on the first floor.
It had rained a few days ago, so some herbs were not kept properly and were damp.
He was removing them one by one.
“Master,” Su Xiaoxiao greeted.
Physician Fu felt guilty for having her call him Master, but Su Xiaoxiao did not feel any psychological burden, so he could only bite the bullet and agree.
“It’s not easy for you to rest for a day. Why are you at the medical center again? Didn’t I tell you not to come?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I have something to ask you.”
Physician Fu said, “Tell me.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “When did your father diagnose the happy pulse of Zhaoyang Hall?”
Physician Fu did not expect her to ask this. His father had passed away many years ago, and he would not be as sad as before when he occasionally mentioned it.
He was just puzzled. She seemed to be paying attention to this matter.
Physician Fu recalled, “In the winter of the second year of Jing Xuan, His Majesty had just ascended the throne and his foundation was not stable. The palace was very busy, and so was the Imperial Hospital.” Su Xiaoxiao said, “That’s… about fifteen years ago?”
Physician Fu said, “That’s right.”
Su Xiaoxiao continued, “Was the Prince of Nanyang in the capital that year?” Physician Fu thought for a moment and said, “Yes. the Prince of Nanyang had yet to move to his fief at that time.”
Su Xiaoxiao sorted out the clues she had.
Su Xiaoxiao sorted out the clues she had.
In the winter of the second year of Jing Xuan, Zhaoyang Hall diagnosed a happy pulse.
The following spring, the Prince of Nanyang moved to his fief and began to plan a rebellion.
In the fifth year of Jing Xuan, the Prince of Nanyang failed to rebel and was exterminated by Emperor Jing Xuan in the name of the “plague”.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Have you heard of the rebellion of the Prince of Nanyang?”
Physician Fu pondered and said, “I’ve heard of it, but… His Majesty didn’t post the imperial announcement to the world. I don’t know if it’s true.”
Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin.
Assuming that the person diagnosed with the happy pulse was Bai Xihe, the child in her stomach might belong to the Prince of Nanyang.
If so, the Prince of Nanyang was rebelling for her and the fetus in her stomach.
If not, there were two situations.
One was that the two of them were in love. Bai Xihe had been forced by another man. In view of the fact that Bai Xihe was in the harem, the only man who had a chance to force her was Emperor Jing Xuan.
In order to save her from trouble, the Prince of Nanyang raised his army and rebelled.
The other situation was that the Prince of Nanyang had um he found out that Bai Xihe was pregnant with Emperor Jing blood, King Nanyang could not calm the jealousy in his hea the emperor himself to snatch Bai Xihe.
However, Princess Jingning had already made it clear that only had the throne in his heart and did not have any other Xihe.
In short, it was impossible for Emperor Jing Xuan to touch
In that case, if Bai Xihe was pregnant, the child could only of Nanyang.
Unless—
