C112

The Emperor brought Chu Lingyun and Chu Zongge to wander in the imperial garden for half a day, when he suddenly saw a familiar eunuch rushing over in a hurry.

Chu Lingyun looked carefully, and said: "These are the people from mother's side."

When the emperor saw the anxiety on his face and saw that someone had disturbed her, he became a bit impatient. "Did the empress ask you to come?"

The eunuch knelt down abruptly, his forehead constantly touching the ground. "Princess, I'll have to bother you with a trip to the Changchun Palace."

The emperor narrowed his eyes. "What's the matter, is there something wrong with the empress?"

The eunuch replied in a sobbing tone, "The crown prince vomited blood on the Changchun Palace."

Chu Lingyun was shocked, the beads on the side of her face tinkled, "The crown prince is perfectly fine, why would he vomit blood?"

When the eunuch heard the princess's question, he quickly explained everything clearly.

The emperor was obviously unhappy, and his thin lips pursed into a line. "So that's the case. This Emperor has warned him many times to not play with dancers, but he refused. He's most likely brought this upon himself."

Chu Lingyun heard his discontent, and immediately smiled apologetically: "Royal Brother may have been in the wrong, but I have indeed suffered, and I hope that Royal Father can forgive me."

The emperor sighed lightly and glanced at Chu Zongge, "Do you want to come with us to see the crown prince?"

Although he was not too happy, but he was still his own brother so he had to take care of the situation first, "The crown prince is sick, this son is also very impatient, and is willing to follow Royal Father."

If Chu Zongge were to meet Xianghe there, it would definitely cause trouble, "Big Brother Prince Duan, the crown prince suddenly vomited blood, and right now, his Changchun Palace is packed with doctors. You are quite big, if you follow us there, you will definitely cause the palace of mother to explode."

The Emperor was amused by her words and told him, "Your sister is right. Let's return to Xinyang Hall and wait for news."

"Royal Brother has matters to attend to, how can this son stand by and watch without doing anything. I must do what I can for my brother, Little Yun can rest assured, if you don't want me to get in your way, just let brother stand guard outside the palace."

Chu Lingyun was startled, then immediately reacted: "Big brother Prince Duan is not a guard, how can I let you guard outside the palace.

Chu Zongge pretended to be in a difficult situation, "Little Yun did not allow me to enter, nor did he allow me to stand guard outside.

Without waiting for Chu Lingyun to speak, the emperor slanted his eyes at him again. "You want to go?"

"I …" Chu Zongge paused, "The crown prince is not feeling well, as your younger brother, I should..."

"It's good to be friends and brothers," the Emperor said quietly. "But the crown prince has been sick several times, do you have to bump into him to get there?"

Chu Zongge was shocked by the cold look in his eyes. Thinking that he had no chance of winning against Princess Poyang, he said awkwardly: "Since Royal Father and Little Yun are going, then this subject will come again to visit the Crown Prince one day."

The emperor turned his head to look at Chu Lingyun who was taking pleasure in her misfortune, and her eyes were once again brimming with love, "Mn, then Princess me and I will go to the Changchun Palace first."

When Chu Lingyun arrived at the Changchun Palace, she first let the Emperor in. With the excuse of taking a shortcut to her own Bedchamber, he found Xianghe anxiously waiting for her in her room.

"Alright, I already know," Chu Lingyun's expression was calm as he covered her mouth. "Go and change your clothes first, the Emperor also wants to see your Changchun Palace."

Xianghe was startled, and immediately said: "The crown prince vomited blood."

"I know," Chu Lingyun straightened her sleeves. "It's an old habit of him to flirt with dancers, and it's normal for him to cough blood from time to time. I think that the mother is trying to use this opportunity to get the emperor's sympathy."

Xianghe thought for a while and said: "Then the princess wants this servant to catch the east wind to attract the emperor."

"Of course," Chu Lingyun's eyes flashed with a bright light, "If we don't go now, then when is the time for you to do so? You will properly treat the crown prince and let the emperor know that you are not only similar to the Mrs. Heyi, but also as gentle and kind as she is.

Xianghe still had some doubts. "It's just that the princess used the chance of the crown prince spitting out blood to present this servant to the emperor. Would the empress be unhappy?"

Chu Lingyun did not think much of it, "What's wrong? I share the same thoughts as the Royal Brother, but the one on the left is him asking the Emperor for sympathy, I will definitely attract the attention of the Emperor, furthermore, this is a good thing that is added with flowers, the mother might even praise me for being smart."

"But I heard that the crown prince vomited blood because of the poison."

Chu Lingyun frowned slightly, "Poisoned? Who poisoned him? "

Xianghe whispered into her ear, "It's the dancer that the crown prince often brings with him."

"You're talking about pearls?" Chu Lingyun asked doubtfully, "The Royal Brother is so good to her, why would she poison his?"

"This servant doesn't know," Xianghe shook her head, "That dancer named Ming Zhu attempted to assassinate the crown prince and was captured by the guards. When the empress heard about this, she was enraged and wanted to kill the dancing queen, but the crown prince didn't say anything to her initially.

Chu Lingyun gnashed her teeth in anger. "My royal brother has always been a merciful woman. How could he allow a dancer to give birth to a child of the crown prince without losing face for the royal family?

Xianghe glanced outside the window in the direction of the Changchun Palace. "Half of the imperial doctors have already come, and they say that there's no way to save them. One of the imperial doctors said that it might be due to the Chiron poison, so the empress sent someone to find a servant."

"I thought that Royal Brother and mother were just putting on an act for the Emperor," Chu Lingyun said as she shook off her sleeves in annoyance.

Xianghe looked at her in a daze, "Princess still needs to …"

"The crown prince is truly a useless existence," Chu Lingyun slowly closed his eyes, concealing the sinister look in his eyes, "Let's make two preparations first. If the crown prince is unable to protect herself, you can also gain the attention of the emperor."

Xianghe panicked: "If the Crown Prince is not able, then we don't have a backer."

"What are you afraid of?" After Chu Lingyun opened her eyes, her lips were filled with a cold smile, "Didn't the emperor say he would make me the crown prince? If he really can't protect me, then mother will have me by his side."

Xianghe focused and slowly said: "Then does Princess hope to be able to protect it or not."

"Your question makes it difficult for me to answer," Chu Lingyun vaguely heard the empress's hysterical cry.

The emperor hugged the empress, his heart sinking. "You're too sad, it's better if you take a good rest."

Empress Chen blocked the palace maid from reaching out to take her hand, and said with tears in her voice, "As long as the crown prince is still alive, chenqie will never leave the bed."

A trace of unwillingness flashed through the Emperor's eyes. "Why do you have to go through so much trouble? The crown prince's life is at stake, and even the best imperial physician in Royal Hospital is helpless against him."

"Is the emperor saying that chenqie will watch her own son die in her arms?" "There are many princes on the Emperor's face, but this chenqie only has one. As long as there's a chance of survival, chenqie will never give up."

The emperor pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "If anything happens to the crown prince, even if it's another emperor, he'll still honor you as the empress dowager when he ascends the throne in the future."

The Empress Chen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised a cold smile, "The Emperor thinks that there is only one concubine, and that means there is only one prince. The concubine means that there is only one son, and that only one son is raised by the concubine after nine months of hard work.

The emperor sighed heavily. "Zhen knows the bitterness in your heart. It's Zhen who owes you all these years …"

"Chenqie doesn't dare to say that she owes Chenqie," Empress Chen's trembling fingers slowly caressed the crown prince's pale face. "The fact that the crown prince's talent is mediocre and he could become the crown prince is already the greatest love the emperor has for chenqie."

The emperor paused for a moment, then slowly shifted his gaze away from her body. He asked the eunuch, "Didn't you say that the princess has a slave that she brought from the Chiron?

Chu Lingyun had long heard the conversation between the two outside the palace, and happened to bring Xianghe up when the emperor was asking, "Royal Father, I've already brought the people from Chiron up here."

Xianghe lowered her head slightly, walked into the palace, and looked at the emperor with a gentle and shy gaze.

"This is …" The emperor stood rooted to the ground, as if he had been struck by lightning. That familiar yet unfamiliar face was right in front of him. He suddenly stood up and extended his hand. Light and shadow intertwined in her eyes, as if they had been separated for a lifetime.

Chu Lingyun laughed coquettishly and pushed Xianghe towards the crown prince, separating the emperor's hand that was in midair, "Royal Father, this Chiron person is called Xianghe, does he look very similar to his daughter?"

Empress Chen was obviously not very happy. She pushed Xianghe closer to the crown prince expressionlessly, and said coldly. "The crown prince seems to have taken a poison from his Chiron.

The Emperor looked at Chu Lingyun who was smiling faintly in a trance, and realised that the face in front of him was even closer to the old people than the face from before, "You … Why did you find someone with almost the same Chiron as you? "

Chu Lingyun smiled and said: "Daughter feels that being with her is like looking at a mirror, it's really fun."

"Her face is filled with the aura of someone from the Chiron, and she doesn't seem to be like you at all," The Emperor indifferently lowered his eyes. "Hurry and let the crown prince have a look."

Chu Lingyun was a little disappointed. Could it be that the emperor does not like Xianghe, whose Chiron is full of flavor?

The crown prince looked like she was wearing a white mask as she laid on the bed. Her lips were so purple that it seemed like there was grapes in them, and she felt like her soul was already out of her body. Xianghe took a deep breath, she was still breathing, and by the time she used the silver needles to probe her acupoints, her face had already darkened.

Seeing the change in her expression, Chu Lingyun's heart was clear as a mirror, but he still showed a surprised look, "Will the Royal Brother still be saved?"

Xianghe understood in her heart, and said hesitantly: "I'm afraid that the crown prince is poisoned and will not be able to recover from it." She immediately knelt in front of the empress.

Empress Chen was shocked speechless, her eyes were filled with sorrow, all the beautiful hopes in his heart suddenly turned to nothingness, "How could it be …" She grabbed Xianghe's clothes, and her eyes turned red, "The imperial physician said that Chiron people can cure it, why can't you?"

Xianghe gasped for breath from her grasp, and advised, "Empress Dowager, please calm your anger. This servant is incompetent and was unable to treat the crown prince, but this poison is indeed highly toxic."
