Chapter 1265: Chapter 1265: Has Princess Consort Yi t Her End?
“Emperor, not everyone is fond of the little power in the harem. Think about the look that female physician had in her eyes when she first entered the palace,”
She questioned her son.
“That…”
The Emperor reminisced for a mont, realizing that the female physician was indeed quite indifferent towards him as the Emperor.
Well, that young girl simply did not regard him as the one in power at all. There were no proper salutations or kneelings, and here he was, the Emperor, having to coax her with kind words!
“So, what does Mother an? Are we just going to let this go?”
He inquired.
“Of course we cannot just let this go.” The Empress Dowager stated imdiately.
No matter what, they couldn’t just let an outsider like Sui Zimo benefit. They must bring the female physician to their side.
“I heard that Sui Zimo took the female physician to Prince Yi’s Mansion today?” she asked.
“Hmph!”
Upon hearing this, the Emperor let out a cold snort.
“Mother has heard as well? This Prince Yi is getting bolder by the day, daring to defy even my orders. What does Mother think should be done with Prince Yi?”
He sought the Empress Dowager’s opinion.
“What punishnt?”
The Empress Dowager questioned him back.
“Since the female physician has involved herself in treating Princess Consort Yi’s illness, the Emperor should command more supplents to be sent to Prince Yi’s Mansion. Prince Yi also needs to be soothed more.”
She advised.
“What?!”
The Emperor could hardly believe his own ears.
What was he hearing, sending supplents to Prince Yi’s Mansion, appeasing Prince Yi? Is this sothing he, as the Emperor, should do?
“Mother… are you planning to tamper with the supplents and directly do away with Princess Consort Yi?”
He asked skeptically.
“Emperor!”
The Empress Dowager frowned and glared at the Emperor displeasedly.
“Where is your sense of propriety as the Emperor? Princess Consort Yi is just a minor character; the key is that the female physician has gone to Prince Yi’s Mansion. You should be winning the female physician’s heart.
Do you want her to think you’re a brutal and unkind Emperor?”
“That…”
The Emperor bit his lip, finally grasping the aning behind his mother’s words.
So he was supposed to present himself as a good person in front of the female physician, right? To ensure that her opinion of him was positive, wasn’t it?
“Mother, I understand now. I will command soone to see to it at once.”
“It’s too late today; let’s discuss it tomorrow morning,” the Empress Dowager considered and then cautioned.
Normally, she would not have said this, but she feared her son might be too eager and have the goods delivered to Prince Yi’s Mansion today, which would seem overly deliberate. Even she herself would beco suspicious.
Since Sui Zimo dared to take the female physician to Prince Yi’s Mansion, he must be clear about Princess Consort Yi’s illness.
In any case, the female physician was surely going to visit Prince Yi’s Mansion the next day. If the Emperor’s sent items were to arrive at Prince Yi’s Mansion just at that ti, it would be perfect.
She believed the Emperor would handle the matter well.
“Yes.”
The Emperor responded.
…
The next day, in Prince Mo’s Mansion.
“Master, Prince, you have no idea how that old monster in the palace operates. It could make one laugh their teeth off!” Zhong You spoke to Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang.
He was following his master’s orders, accompanying Zhen Wu to deliver dicine to Prince Yi’s Mansion.
But as it happened, they ran into the eunuch sent by the Emperor to deliver supplents. The way he carried himself was so arrogant with the people of Prince Yi’s Mansion, including Prince Yi himself.
The thing is, it wasn’t just about delivering the items; they also wanted the people from Prince Yi’s Mansion to be grateful to the Emperor, each and every word reminding Prince Yi to appreciate the Emperor’s favor and rember to express his thanks at the palace.
