Chapter 163 Consort Fucha
Chapter 163 Noble Lady Fucha
The desolate and quiet Jingren Palace was filled with an atmosphere of decay and loneliness.
The once magnificent palace now appears desolate, as if it has lost its former glory.
In a dimly lit room deep within this palace,
Ulanara Yixiu, whose hair was already white and whose body was so thin that she was almost unrecognizable, knelt before the Buddha.
Her haggard face and empty, lifeless eyes revealed endless despair and resentment.
Just then, an elderly nanny rushed into the hall.
Xiang Yixiu reported some startling news:
"Your Majesty, we've succeeded! The Sixth Prince is blessed with good fortune!"
Moreover… and Yanxi Palace is already closed!
Upon hearing this news, Yixiu was stunned at first, and then suddenly burst into wild laughter.
Her laughter was sharp and piercing, echoing throughout the entire Jingren Palace.
Even the old nanny who came to deliver the news was so frightened that she trembled all over.
"Hahaha, I've finally succeeded! You vile wretches, die!"
Yi Xiu laughed while tears streamed down her face; her distorted expression was chilling.
The guards standing outside Jingren Palace shook their heads when they heard the deposed empress's laughter.
They sighed inwardly, lamenting how this once all-powerful empress had become so deranged.
It is truly tragic and lamentable.
However, despite the fear that Yixiu's madness instilled in everyone,
But the old nanny, whose life and death were entirely in the hands of her master, dared not utter a single word.
She could only stand trembling to the side, head down, not daring to utter a sound.
After laughing, Yixiu gradually regained her composure and began to mutter to herself:
"You people are so greedy!"
They all want to vie for the Emperor's favor and seize my possessions.
"Hmph, just wait, you'll all die a horrible death sooner or later!"
After she finished speaking, a hint of malice flashed in her eyes again, as if she were cursing those who opposed her.
The place where the prince resided was now tightly sealed off, and the atmosphere was extremely heavy.
The condition of the Third Prince, Fourth Prince, and Fifth Prince is really bad.
They all had persistent high fevers, but the terrible smallpox disease failed to manifest for a long time.
It is important to know that if smallpox cannot be successfully contracted, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Because only when the acne fully erupts and you successfully get through this difficult period,
Only then could it mean that smallpox had truly been defeated.
Consort Qi and Consort Yu were naturally extremely anxious when they learned that their son had contracted smallpox.
They had long fallen out of favor, and their son had been everything to them all these years.
They entered the prince's residence without hesitation and stayed by their sons' sides day and night.
According to palace rules, concubines were not originally allowed to stay in the princes' quarters.
But this time, Big Fat Orange took into account the two mothers' deep love for their son.
In the end, they made an exception and allowed them to enter to take care of the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince.
She only hoped that with the loving care of their biological mother, her two sons could bravely overcome this calamity.
He only has these few sons; nothing can happen to them.
In contrast, the fourth prince, Hongli, appeared rather forlorn.
He was never favored by the big fat orange cat, even though Zhen Huan had repeatedly spoken well of him to the cat.
This made the chubby orange cat start paying attention to this son.
However, compared to the Fifth Prince, the Third Prince did not receive much attention.
Zhen Huan is currently facing her own difficulties and has no time to attend to Hongli.
Hongli only had one wet nurse who was responsible for taking care of his daily life.
He was accompanied by a eunuch named Wang Qin and several inconspicuous palace maids and eunuchs.
The imperial physician was chosen by the Third Prince Hongshi, and was left over from the Fifth Prince Hongzhou.
The wet nurse stood anxiously by the bedside, watching helplessly as Hongli lay unconscious with a flushed face.
My heart is filled with worry and fear.
She clasped her hands together and prayed to the heavens, hoping that God would protect the poor child and keep him safe.
Wang Qin, who was usually lazy and irresponsible, dared not be careless at all.
After all, even if the Fourth Prince is not highly regarded, he is still a prince!
If anything were to happen to the Fourth Prince, all of them, the servants, would certainly be implicated and would probably lose their heads.
Therefore, at this moment, no one dares not do their best to take good care of Hongli.
Hongli felt as if he were surrounded by raging flames.
His entire body was burning hot, and the scalding pain was unbearable for him.
In his hazy state, he vaguely heard the wet nurse muttering something anxiously beside him.
The sound was sometimes clear and sometimes indistinct.
However, despite his extreme physical discomfort, he was filled with resentment deep inside.
Just when I thought my situation was finally starting to improve, I realized...
Are we really going to face death so easily?
No, he was absolutely unwilling! He was unwilling to die like this, and even more unwilling to spend his whole life subservient to others.
He secretly vowed that if he could escape this calamity by sheer luck...
He must work even harder in the future to change his destiny and make everyone look at him with new respect.
