The maidservants helped Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu, stand and sit on the chair beside the empress dowager.
"So, tell us what is going on." The empress dowager stated.
Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu began to tell the empress dowager and Empress Miao about the fourth prince’s situation. They were shocked to hear that the fourth prince had been poisoned.
"Do you catch the person who poisoned my grandson?" The empress dowager asked.
"I don’t know about that." Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu shook her head. Then, she continued. "Mother, that can be waited but Lan-er can’t. If he does not get the cure for the poison within 5 days, he can not be a real man anymore."
"Sister, if we catch the culprit, we can force him to give us the antidote. That is why we need to investigate the culprit." Empress Miao stated.
"That’s right. Lan-er had been confined in his mansion. It must be soone in his mansion who had the chance to do sothing like this." The empress dowager stated.
"Only His Majesty can make a decree to investigate the fourth prince’s mansion." Empress Miao said.
"Go and call His Majesty. Tell him, I want to see him right now." The empress dowager ordered an eunuch.
The eunuch received the order and rushed out to deliver the ssage to the emperor.
"Mother, can you ask soone to check on Lan-er?" Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu asked.
"Who is in your mind that can help Lan-er right now?" The empress dowager asked back.
"Young Lady Bai." Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu ntioned the na.
The empress dowager was stunned for a mont before giving a complicated expression. She had already burned the bridge between her and Bai Xifeng after she chose to protect her grandson in the previous incident. She knew that Bai Xifeng did not have a good impression of the fourth prince. She was sure that Bai Xifeng did not want to treat the fourth prince.
This was where the empress dowager was wrong. Bai Xifeng did not mind treating the fourth prince but the fee would be horrendously expensive.
"I think Young Lady Bai would not be able to do it." Empress Miao said.
"I understand. She probably did not want to treat soone who said sothing an about her." The empress dowager sighed.
"No, Mother. I don’t an that way. She is not in the Capital City right now. I believe she is leaving for Xianying City with her father and brother." Empress Miao corrected the empress dowager.
"Leaving for Xianying City? The border city?" The empress dowager was surprised. "Why?"
"General Bai told His Majesty that he would be worried leaving his daughter alone at this city. So, he brought her with him." Empress Miao said.
"Can we send soone to bring her back to treat Lan-er?" Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu wanted to use the empress dowager to take Bai Xifeng back to the Capital City.
"That..." The empress dowager had trouble to answer it.
"I don’t think it is possible because General Bai and his family did not use the normal route. They use Sophia Mountain’s route. If our people enter the Sophia Mountian recklessly, they might die. Not to ntion, we don’t know the exact route that General Bai takes. There is a lot routes inside the Sophia Mountain. Our people could be lost or die inside the Sophia Mountian." Empress Miao said.
"Miao Yu, you just want my son to die, am I right? That is why you don’t bother to send people to bring Young Lady Bai back?" Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu lost her temper.
"Noble Consort Furen, rember your position." Empress Miao sternly reprimanded Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu.
"I know that you are heartless because you don’t have a child." Noble Consort Furen, Qian m did not care anymore about her face.
Empress Miao felt a pain in her heart. She indeed did not have a child but that was not the point why she did not allowed Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu to send soone to go to Bai Xifeng.
"Noble Consort Furen, even though you nm soone to et Young Lady Bai, do you think that she would just co over, leaving her father and brother and co back because of the fourth prince? Rember, the fourth prince had a conflict with Young Lady Bai before. I will be surprised when Young Lady Bai agreed on treating the Fourth prince." Empress Miao told her opinion.
"No wonder, you are childless." Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu said
"Yunyu, what are you saying to Empress Miao?" The emperor shouted.
When he arrived there, the eunuch wanted to announce his presence but he stopped m eunuch. He heard the argunt between Empress Maio and Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu. Then, he was shocked to hear the remark from Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu about Empress Miao wss being childless.
"Your Majesty?" Noble Consort Furen, Qian Yunyu was surprised to see the emperor behind.
The emperor walked to the Empress Miao.
"Are you okay?" The emperor asked Empress Miao.
"I am fine." Empress Miao said.
"I am sorry for what Noble Consort Furen said." The emperor said.
"It is fine. It is the truth anyway." Empress Miao said. She turned to the empress dowager. "Mother, I would like to excuse myself first. We can talk later."
"Hmm... Sure." The empress dowager nodded.
