Chapter 1709 - 620: The Female Lead Reversed (Part 9)_3

Chapter 1709: Chapter 620: The Female Lead Reversed (Part 9)_3

A greenish-purple bump prominently appeared on the fair and smooth forehead.

Everyone was in a panic and quickly carried Consort Shu to the Luohan bed in the outer room.

"Call the Imperial Physician, quickly go call the Imperial Physician!"

The chief palace maid beside Consort Shu shouted loudly.

Soon, the Imperial Physician was summoned. As he passed the steps, he saw a thin and frail figure kneeling in the corridor and slightly furrowed his brows.

But Royal Family matters were beyond the scope of involvement for these ministers.

He quickly diverted his gaze, not daring to look more, and the Imperial Physician went straight into the main room.

"..." The symptoms of Consort Shu’s illness, how are they so similar to Prince Liang’s?

Could the concept of "mother and son heart" actually reach such a level?

Could injuries and unconsciousness even be contagious?

As soon as these thoughts emerged in his mind, the Imperial Physician hurriedly shook his head, discarding these chaotic speculations.

He began to take Consort Shu’s pulse, but the pulse showed no problem.

Ah, this was also very similar to Prince Liang.

The Imperial Physician suppressed the absurd thoughts stirring in his heart and began trying other methods.

Acupuncture, administering medicine, pressing acupuncture points... he tried them all, none were effective!

The Imperial Physician had no choice but to order someone to seek aid from the palace.

The Emperor, upon hearing about the occurrence at Prince Liang’s Mansion, was both astonished and helpless.

Alas, Consort Shu and Prince Liang, this mother and son pair, really... really, what can be said about them!

"Find out clearly, did Consort Shu just punish Princess Liang and then suddenly fall over?"

The Emperor carefully questioned the eunuch who went to investigate.

"Yes! The slave inquired, the lady blamed Princess Liang for not taking good care of the Prince, then punished her to kneel outside the corridor!"

"Just as Princess Liang knelt down, Consort Shu fell and her head happened to hit the corner of the table!"

The young eunuch, unaware of the "truth," honestly reported.

"Happened to"?

Ha, how many coincidences can there be?

Consort Shu intended to deliberately torment a virtuous person and got attacked by the Merit Golden Light on that person!

Originally, the Emperor had a few suspicions about Master Hui Tong’s statements, but Consort Shu personally demonstrated it to the Emperor, now he truly believed.

"Someone, bring Consort Shu back to the palace."

Suppressing the apprehension in his heart, the Emperor instructed solemnly.

"Also, in the name of the Empress Dowager, reward Lady He with two nannies from the palace."

"Oh, let it be Nanny Wang and Nanny Liu who grandmother once used."

To avoid Consort Shu running off seeking death again, uh, if Consort Shu can awaken;

Also to prevent any more self-important Royal nobles from encountering backlash for troubling Lady He, the Emperor had to send capable nannies to Prince Liang’s Mansion.

In the name of the Empress Dowager, send people who used to serve the Grand Empress Dowager; mentioning they are noblewomen of the Imperial Family, even those palace concubines would have some concerns.

Thus, those afflicted with "strange sickness" could be fewer!

However, what slightly relieved the Emperor was that, as soon as his reward reached Prince Liang’s Mansion and helped Princess Liang rest in the private chamber, Consort Shu woke up on that side.

Consort Shu seemed frightened too, afraid she would become a living dead like her son.

Her son is a Prince, and in the palace, there’s her as the mother-consort; even if unconscious, he wouldn’t be mistreated or disgraced.

But if she were to become like that, only death awaits her!

She does not want to die.

Not just for herself; if she dies, what about her son?

"...Erlang, you, you recuperate well, mother-consort will go back to the palace to plead with your Father Emperor!"

"Your Father Emperor is the Emperor, ruling the world, possessing the riches of the four seas, if he searches throughout the land, surely he can find a Divine Doctor, an expert!"

"Rest assured, mother will certainly not ignore you!"

Consort Shu explained to Prince Liang while wiping her tears, then, like fleeing for her life, she left Prince Liang’s Mansion.

Consort Shu did not know the "truth" about her son’s injury, but as the one who experienced it, she just felt terrified.

This mansion is too strange, perhaps it harbors something unclean.

She and her son were harmed by this evil influence!

Consort Shu gritted her teeth, pondering how to break the situation on the way back to the palace.

Only, the occasional pain from her forehead deeply reminded her: even if she wants to break the situation, she must be cautious.

Otherwise, next time, she might truly end up like her son, becoming a living dead!

Consort Shu made secret calculations, yet the Emperor slightly relaxed his mind—

Fortunately, fortunately!

This virtuous person is not someone who overly harbors grievances.

Or rather, the Merit Golden Light on her is very "measured"; as long as outsiders do not intentionally bully her, they will not encounter backlash.

Moreover, if timely restraint or correction is done, harm can be minimized!

This provides much reassurance.

Otherwise, if Lady He’s powers were too odd and uncontrollable, even sitting on the Dragon Throne, the Emperor wouldn’t be at ease.

He holds the supreme power, controlling life and death in the world; though he does not intend to deliberately harass a woman, the thought of someone existing whom he cannot touch.

As the Emperor, he truly feels uncomfortable...
