Chapter 230 Consort Fucha
Chapter 230 Consort Fucha
Upon hearing this, Ye Lanyi hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to lower her voice and say to Hongchang:
"My lord, the Empress says that matters of the imperial family are inherently cold and ruthless."
The older the emperor got, the less he wanted to admit he was old.
You will need to be more careful and cautious in your future actions.
Upon hearing this, Hongchang let out another long sigh, his face full of helplessness, and said:
"I am well aware of the pros and cons, but I am unwilling to accept it."
Everyone has moments of greed.
He wanted both power and family, but he wasn't the type to get stuck on things.
Today was also a test for him.
If something is impossible to do, then you must let it go.
Seeing this, Ye Lanyi couldn't help but sigh and gently comforted her:
"The affairs of the Heavenly Family have always been intricate and unpredictable."
The reason why Her Majesty gave you such instructions is...
I simply hope that you can see the intricacies of this matter soon, and that you will be more cautious in your actions in the future.
Her Majesty is afraid that you, my lord, will offend the Emperor and be punished by him.
Hongchang remained silent for a moment, seemingly deep in thought, before slowly speaking:
"I now understand my mother's good intentions. What happened today has indeed made me much more clear-headed."
I will definitely keep my mother's teachings in mind and never make the same mistake again.
After saying that, Hongchang picked up a pastry, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it little by little.
He knew his mother's hopes for him, more than he knew his father's.
Compared to the Emperor's misunderstanding, the Mother's love is the most precious.
He decided that from now on he would listen to his mother more and take better care of himself.
In the days that followed, Hongchang restrained his sharp edges and no longer readily offered advice to his father, the Emperor.
He devoted more of his energy to reading and martial arts practice, constantly improving his abilities.
The chubby orange cat became increasingly obsessed with women.
In this palace, only Empress Fucha Peiyun and Empress Nian Shilan had the courage and the right to offer advice.
They would only be happy to see it happen, so why would they bother to persuade them sincerely?
Besides them, the only one who could offer advice was the Empress Dowager, but unfortunately, she had been bedridden for several years.
He can't even utter a single word, how can he possibly offer advice?
As the days went by, the atmosphere in the palace became increasingly oppressive.
The giant orange cat's absurd behavior became increasingly unrestrained, even in the imperial court...
The ministers frowned more and more deeply, but none of them dared to speak easily.
Hongchang saw this and was anxious, but he remembered his mother's teachings and never acted rashly.
Fucha Peiyun and Nian Shilan are both waiting for the day when the big fat orange falls down.
Finally, one day, something happened.
One night, the fat orange cat summoned two female musicians from the Southern Palace to sleep with him.
He was fine before, but around midnight, he suddenly developed a high fever.
The two musicians were so frightened that they screamed.
Su Peisheng was awakened by the noise.
Seeing this, Su Peisheng hurriedly sent a eunuch to fetch the imperial physician.
In addition, inform Empress Fucha Peiyun and Empress Nian Shilan.
Wen Shichu and the others rushed over and, after taking Da Pangju's pulse, their expressions became very serious.
They discovered that the chubby orange was in very poor health, clearly due to excessive indulgence.
Not only that, his body was already depleted, and he had also lost his fertility.
The illness came on suddenly and is very worrying.
Su Peisheng was extremely anxious, and he urgently asked Wen Shichu how to deal with the situation.
After a moment's thought, Wen Shichu wrote out a prescription.
He also instructed Su Peisheng to make sure that Da Pangju (Big Fat Orange) was well cared for and not to be indulged in the slightest.
Fucha Peiyun and Nian Shilan arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation one after the other.
The two of them looked at the unconscious, fat orange cat on the dragon bed and pretended to be very worried.
Fucha Peiyun spoke first, her voice trembling with tears:
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
How could someone who was perfectly healthy suddenly become so sick?
You must get well soon; everyone in the palace needs you!
Nian Shilan echoed:
"Yes, Your Majesty, you absolutely mustn't be harmed."
The two expressed their concern and then inquired about Wen Shichu's condition, specifically regarding the chubby orange cat.
Upon hearing the two empresses' inquiries, Wen Shichu quickly rose to his feet, bowed, and respectfully replied:
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, His Majesty's condition is indeed not optimistic this time."
His body was already weak, and this sudden high fever made his condition extremely critical.
"Your Majesty's health requires careful recuperation; there can be no further indulgence."
Upon hearing this, Fucha Peiyun's face showed worry, and she said:
"What should we do? His Majesty is usually quite healthy, how did he suddenly become so ill?"
"Imperial Physician Wen, you must do everything you can to save the Emperor; the palace cannot function without him."
Nian Shilan echoed:
"Yes, Imperial Physician Wen, you must do your best. What would we do if something happened to the Emperor?"
Wen Shichu quickly said:
"Your Majesties, please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will do my utmost to save His Majesty."
However, the Emperor's condition is serious this time, and the two empresses will need to take good care of him.
"Take good care of the Emperor and let him recuperate in peace."
Fucha Peiyun nodded slightly to indicate that she understood, and then asked:
"Imperial Physician Wen, when will His Majesty finally wake up?"
Wen Shichu sighed helplessly and replied with a solemn expression:
"Your Majesty, His Majesty overworked himself last night."
This has already weakened his body, and coupled with the sudden and persistent high fever, he may not be able to wake up in a short time.
However, I have already prescribed the medicine, and Physician Wei is standing by, preparing it.
After the Emperor takes this medicine, let him rest well; he should be able to wake up.
Upon hearing this, Fucha Peiyun felt somewhat relieved and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Although she hoped that Big Fat Orange would die soon, she did not want him to leave suddenly without any warning.
Although her son was the legitimate heir and his succession to the throne was legitimate,
However, if one could receive an imperial edict to pass on the throne, or be made crown prince, that would naturally be more secure.
"Eunuch Su, look at the sky, it's almost time for the court session."
If this continues, the ministers will likely have to wait in vain in the court.
To avoid wasting everyone's time, you should inform them as soon as possible that court will be suspended today.
Other arrangements can be made after the Emperor wakes up.
Upon hearing this, Su Peisheng quickly bowed and replied:
"Yes, Your Majesty is absolutely right."
This old servant will immediately inform all the ministers that they are exempt from attending court today.
After saying that, he turned and left in a hurry, not daring to delay for the slightest.
Soon, Consort Jing, Consort Jin, Consort Hui, Consort Xin, and others arrived.
Consort Jing and others arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation one after another, and found the atmosphere inside to be somber.
The chubby orange cat was unconscious, and all the concubines looked worried.
Seeing that there were many people, Nian Shilan quickly came out to maintain order.
This kind of occasion is not suitable for being noisy.
He then spoke:
"His Majesty is currently unwell and needs to rest and recuperate."
You must keep your voices down, lest you disturb the Emperor.
Upon hearing this, the concubines all nodded and lowered their voices to inquire about the emperor's condition with concern.
