“Your Highness, Your Highness!” Eunuch Yu ran into the Longevity Palace with a happy expression. Because he ran too quickly, the fat on his face trembled, and his hat went askew. When he crossed the threshold, he tripped.

Seeing this scene, the palace maids and eunuchs all glanced sideways. As an old man in the palace, Eunuch Yu had never lost his composure like this.

Empress Dowager Zhou was about to rest after taking the medicine under Nanny Gao’s care. Seeing him like this, she frowned unhappily. “It’s time to learn the rules. It’s inappropriate for you to be so flustered.”

“No… that…” Eunuch Yu panted heavily. “His Highness… His Highness is back!”

Fifteen minutes later, a group of people ran out of the Longevity Palace. In the middle was Empress Dowager Zhou’s phoenix carriage, followed by lantern-wielding palace servants.

“Faster,” Empress Dowager Zhou urged.

Eunuch Yu, who had yet to catch his breath as he jogged beside the palanquin, was speechless.

In the Yuqian Palace, Shen Yijia nestled in Song Jingchen’s arms and fell asleep.

Xuanyuan Qi paced back and forth nervously in the hall.

Eunuch Wu stood at the side with his head lowered. He looked very calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

What happened tonight was too shocking. The princess consort plotted against His Highness and even committed adultery to confuse the royal bloodline.

Even novelists wouldn’t dare to write this in their storybooks, right?

Actually, it wasn’t just him. Even Xuanyuan Qi didn’t expect Madam Yu to be so bold.

However, he was still most concerned about Xuanyuan Ce. He had yet to think about how to deal with Madam Yu.

The curtain in the sleeping hall was lifted and the imperial physician walked out.

Without waiting for him to speak, Xuanyuan Qi asked, “How is it?” The imperial physician was hesitating about what to say.

Xuanyuan Qi said coldly, “Speak. If you dare to lie, I’ll take your head.”

Shen Yijia was so frightened by his loud words that she woke up and looked at Song Jingchen in confusion.

Song Jingchen squeezed her hand comfortingly.

“His Highness suffered a huge blow to his head. Although he’s still alive, the chances of him waking up are slim. His life is in danger at any time.”

Xuanyuan Qi’s eyes narrowed and he said angrily, “I don’t care what method you use, you have to wake him up. Otherwise, you won’t be able to be an imperial physician anymore.” The imperial physician wiped his sweat. “I’ll definitely do my best.”

“Why are you still standing here?”

“Your Highness.”

A greeting sounded from outside. Xuanyuan Qi paused and turned to welcome them.

“Emperor, where’s your brother?” Empress Dowager Zhou’s voice was trembling.

The emperor comforted her and brought her into the room.

On the dragon bed, Xuanyuan Ce lay there with a pale face. Empress Dowager Zhou went forward with red eyes and reached out to caress his face.

Feeling the warmth under his hand, she cried tears of joy. “He’s alive. Your brother is really still alive.”

“Mother, this is a good thing.”

Empress Dowager Zhou took a deep breath to calm herself down. “What’s going on? The previous one…”

She had clearly seen it with her own eyes.

Xuanyuan Qi pursed his lips and waved his hand to dismiss the servants in the hall.

Song Jingchen and Shen Yijia looked at each other and wanted to leave too.

Xuanyuan Qi said, “The two of you stay.”

The two of them could only continue to stay in the background.

When there were no outsiders, Xuanyuan Qi said, “That person from before was just a substitute who looked like Second Brother.”

He told her how he discovered it. When Empress Dowager Zhou heard this, she quickly looked at Xuanyuan Cel s right hand and saw an inconspicuous callus on his thumb.

Actually, the reason why Xuanyuan Qi did not tell Empress Dowager Zhou that the corpse was fake immediately was because he was worried that the real Xuanyuan Ce had also suffered a mishap, which would cause her to experience the pain of losing her son twice.

If not for the fact that the news had spread too quickly this time, Xuanyuan Qi would not have told her.

Empress Dowager Zhou was not stupid. How could she not have thought of it? Although she did not agree, she knew that the emperor was doing this for her own good. sne did not continue tms tomc and asked, “Have you caugnt tne murderer?”

Since Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen were still standing here safe and sound, it naturally wouldn’t be them.

Xuanyuan Qi nodded. “It’s Madam Yu.”

“Madam Yu!” Empress Dowager Zhou was so angry that her entire body was trembling. “What a good Madam Yu. How ridiculous.”

“Mother…” Xuanyuan Qi hesitated for a moment.” Actually, Ye’er is not Second Brother’s son. She was born from the adultery of Madam Yu.”

Empress Dowager Zhou felt that she had suffered enough during this period of time, and her mental fortitude was strong enough.

However, when she heard this, she was so angry that she fainted.

“Mother!” Xuanyuan Qi was shocked and quickly carried her to the soft couch.

“Quick, call the imperial physician.”

The imperial physician was waiting outside the hall. When he heard the summons, he quickly walked in. Fortunately, Empress Dowager Zhou was fine and woke up after being treated.

Xuanyuan Qi helped her sit up. “Mother, don’t be angry anymore.”

“I’m fine.” Empress Dowager Zhou waved her hand. At the thought of Madam Yu, her face turned cold. “How are you going to deal with Madam Yu?” “I want to wait for Second Brother to wake up and hear his thoughts.”

In the past, he did not understand why Xuanyuan Ce ignored his bloodline so much. Now that he thought about it, he probably knew Xuanyuan Ye’s background very well.

“When will your second brother wake up?” Empress Dowager Zhou asked.

“Well.”

How could Xuanyuan Qi dare to tell the truth? He was about to comfort her.

Song Jingchen suddenly said, “Your Highness, my mother-in-law is proficient in the Qihuang technique. If she comes, His Highness might have a chance of survival.”

Shen Yijia suddenly turned to look at him. So he was waiting for this.

If she asked her mother to save the scumbag, the old woman would have to remember her mother’s kindness.

If her mother forgave the scumbag and the two of them got back together, the old woman would not be able to stop or criticize her mother based on this favor.

Of course, it didn’t matter if her mother didn’t forgive the scumbag. She had to save him anyway.

Empress Dowager Zhou frowned and looked at Xuanyuan Qi. “What happened to Ce’er?”

Guessing Song Jingchen’s plan, Shen Yijia naturally couldn’t hold him back. She pointed at the imperial physician waiting at the side and interrupted, “He just said that your son’s life is in danger at any time. He might never wake up again.”

Empress Dowager Zhou trembled and asked nervously, “Really?” Xuanyuan Qi nodded helplessly.

Empress Dowager Zhou felt the world spin and almost fell again.

The imperial physician was complaining in his heart and quickly went forward to treat her with two more needles.

If this happened two more times, the empress dowager would have to leave before His Highness left.

“Ji Luo!” Empress Dowager Zhou grabbed Xuanyuan Qi’s hand. “Quick, send someone to bring Ji Luo into the palace.”

“Mother, don’t be anxious. I’ll send someone to pick her up now.”

At this moment, Eunuch Wu walked in and whispered something in Xuanyuan Qi’s ear.

Xuanyuan Qi paused and glanced at Song Jingchen. He nodded and said, “Invite her in.”

Shen Yijia blinked and asked softly, “My mother is here?”

Song Jingchen nodded. Actually, he had already asked Thirty Thousand to look for her when they left Lord Jing’an’s residence, but for some reason, he only came now..
