Everyone in my harem is talented

Chapter 436 Sudden Sickness

"Princess Hengshan?" A trace of confusion flashed across Concubine Yi Meng Wuyue's eyes.

Things should not be complicated. Everyone has reached a tacit understanding to push the third prince down first and then talk about other things. She raised her eyes and looked at her daughter Qin Ronglu steadily: "Just pretend you don't know."

The eldest princess Qin Ronglu looked reluctant, but she nodded under the gaze of Concubine Yi.

"Before you leave the palace, go to Hanzhang Palace to visit Concubine Yu first, then go to Changchun Palace to visit Concubine Shun before leaving."

"Yes, concubine."

......

Changchun Palace.

"Mother, I will ask father to let you move back to Lanlin Palace."

The fifth princess, Qin Jingshu, sat on the edge of the bed, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Don't... don't go. Mother didn't get sick because of the palace move."

Shunpin Shi Qingzhang was lying on the bed, her lips were pale, her voice was trembling, and she raised her hand to gently wipe away her daughter's warm tears.

"Maybe it's because I'm old. It's always like this. I don't know when I suddenly get old. When I get old, I get sick easily, and when I get sick, it's serious."

"You are not old." The fifth princess Qin Jingshu's eyes were red and she sobbed, "You are not much older than Concubine Yi. This year is her birthday. Others flattered her like 'glorious autumn chrysanthemums, flourishing spring pines', and Concubine Yi accepted it without blushing. How come you are the one saying you are old?"

"When my mother was young, her family was poor and she didn't have enough to eat every day. Because of her clean background, she was selected to enter the palace at the age of seven or eight, and only then did she have enough to eat."

"And the Imperial Concubine Yi was born into a rich family. When she entered the palace, she was promoted to Concubine Yi smoothly. Imperial Concubine Yi has been pampered since she was young. How can they be the same?"

All her wealth and status came from the eldest prince, because it was because of him that she gained a bit of favor from His Majesty.

Although she was not favored, fortunately she had a body that was easy to conceive. With the favor that might not come to her once a year, she gave birth to the twelfth prince and five princesses.

The fifth princess Qin Jingshu shook her head and tears flew out.

"Noble Concubine Yu is trying to commit suicide, and the whole palace is trying to appease her, and you, mother..."

The fifth princess Qin Jingshu silently swallowed the complaints in her mouth under the gloomy gaze of Concubine Shun.

"Don't complain about the concubine in Lanlin Palace, Changchun Palace is very good, and don't be jealous of Concubine Yu, she..."

The fifth princess Qin Jingshu took the medicine handed to her by the palace maid and interrupted Shunpin Shi Qingzhang.

"Mother, the medicine is ready. I will feed you the medicine."

She stirred the dark medicine gently, blowing gently as the hot steam rose.

After the palace servant helped my mother up, he scooped a spoonful to test the temperature himself, and then fed her the medicine mouthful by mouthful.

"You don't need to say it. I understand it all. It's just that those who cry and beg for mercy are more likely to receive favors. Mother is not as good at crying and making a fuss as Noble Concubine Yu, so naturally others can't see or hear it."

She didn't want to listen to her mother belittling herself and praising others anymore.

"Why haven't my eldest and twelfth brothers come to visit Mother yet? Didn't anyone tell them that Mother is ill?"

After the Fifth Princess Qin Jingshu fed the medicine to Concubine Shun Shi Qingzhang, she saw that her two brothers had not come yet, so she frowned and there was some resentment in her eyes.

"Your Highness, you were so tired when you came back yesterday that you fell asleep immediately. The Queen specifically instructed that no one should disturb your rest, so I didn't know.

The Twelfth Prince had dinner with the Empress in Changchun Palace yesterday. The Empress was not feeling well, so the Twelfth Prince and the servants looked after her and did not return until dawn.

Since you didn't ask just now, I didn't have the chance to tell you."

"Why did my mother suddenly fall ill? Go to the Imperial Hospital and get a few doctors for me."

My mother has been in good health these years. Others don’t care about it, but as her daughter, how could I not know?

"Your Highness, Concubine Yu has asked the best doctors in the palace to go to her. If I go to the Imperial Hospital, I can only ask ordinary doctors. They may be able to treat common ailments such as headaches and fevers, but for more, I can only rely on luck."

"I understand. I will go ask my father and mother for it right away." The fifth princess Qin Jingshu said softly.
