Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess

Chapter 260 The Prince Fainted

"Godfather, godfather." The little eunuch ran over hurriedly, his face full of panic.

"How can you make such a fuss? Tell me what you want to say." The eunuch chief scolded unhappily.

"My son knows he was wrong. Please forgive me, godfather." The young eunuch quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

"What happened? Why are you so panicked?" The eunuch chief frowned and asked in a serious tone.

The young eunuch hesitated, as if he didn't know how to answer. He looked at the chief eunuch nervously, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Yes, something happened with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." The young eunuch swallowed and said tremblingly.

The chief eunuch was shocked. "What happened to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Tell me quickly!"

"The prince fainted suddenly for some reason. The imperial doctors are treating him in the palace. The emperor is also there. He is furious and the servants are all terrified." The young eunuch told the whole story in a rush.

After hearing this, the chief eunuch immediately turned around and hurried away, saying as he walked, "Go back first and guard the door of the prince's bedroom. Report any news promptly."

Inside the palace, the imperial doctors were helpless, and the emperor paced anxiously. When the chief eunuch arrived, he immediately came forward to pay his respects. The emperor glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "What happened? Why did he suddenly faint?"

The chief eunuch quickly replied, "Your Majesty, I have sent someone to investigate this matter, and I believe there will be a result soon. Please be patient, Your Majesty."

At this time, an imperial physician stepped forward, clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have discovered that the Crown Prince's pulse is extremely strange, as if he has been poisoned. But I am still unable to determine what the poison is."

The emperor's face turned extremely gloomy when he heard this. "Poisoned? Who dares to poison the prince? You must find out the truth as soon as possible!" Another imperial physician suggested, "Your Majesty, can you check the prince's diet and items used today to find clues?"

The emperor nodded and said, "Investigate immediately! Also, seal off the prince's bedroom and no one is allowed to enter or leave to avoid interfering with the investigation." The imperial doctors took the order and left, while the chief eunuch stayed beside the emperor, quietly waiting for the results of the investigation.

With the efforts of the imperial doctors, they finally found some clues. They found a rare poison in the prince's food. This poison was extremely toxic and took effect quickly, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect.

When the emperor learned about this, he was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. The entire palace was shrouded in a tense atmosphere, and everyone was on edge, fearing that they would be implicated.

Meanwhile, the prince's condition remained critical, and the doctors tried every possible means to revive him, but still failed. The emperor was worried and stayed by the prince's bed all day, hoping that he would recover soon.

Behind this turbulent situation, a bigger conspiracy is quietly brewing...

Jun Moli and Hua Xiulan walked into the palace together, followed closely by a woman dressed in palace maid's clothes.

"Brother Emperor, I have brought a miracle doctor." Hua Xiulan said excitedly.

"Oh? Miracle doctor? Who is this person?" the emperor asked curiously.

"I, Jiang Yu, greet the emperor. Long live the emperor." Jiang Yu bowed respectfully.

"Get up." The emperor waved his hand.

The emperor looked carefully at the woman with outstanding appearance in front of him and couldn't help feeling a little surprised. He didn't expect that she was the miracle doctor.

"Go and see the prince quickly." The emperor said anxiously.

"Yes." Jiang Yu replied, then walked to the bedside and sat down, gently taking the prince's pulse and carefully diagnosing his condition. The prince's face was pale, his lips were slightly purple, and his breath was weak.

After a moment, Jiang Yu released the prince's wrist and stood up. Her face became solemn, "Your Majesty, the poison in the prince is extremely dangerous. I need some time to prepare the antidote. However, before that, we need to find out who poisoned the prince. Otherwise, even if we cure the prince's poison, there is no guarantee that there will be no next time."

The emperor's eyes swept across the crowd sharply, "I will definitely find out the real culprit and will not show any leniency!" He turned to look at Jiang Yu, "I'll leave everything to the miracle doctor. If you can save the prince, I will reward you handsomely."

Jiang Yu nodded slightly, "I will do my best." Then, she began to prepare the antidote. A faint herbal aroma filled the room.

Jiang Yu worked for several hours and finally prepared the antidote. She carefully fed the antidote to the prince and then quietly observed his reaction.

Everyone held their breath, waiting nervously. After a while, the prince's face gradually regained its color, and his breathing became steady.

"Great! The prince is saved!" The emperor was ecstatic.

However, at this moment, Jiang Yu suddenly discovered that the prince's pulse was a little abnormal. She frowned tightly, and an ominous premonition came to her mind.

"This antidote... can only temporarily relieve the toxicity. If we can't find the source, the prince's life will still be in danger." Jiang Yu's voice was filled with a hint of worry.

The emperor's face suddenly turned gloomy. "Who on earth is so cruel that he dares to do such a cruel thing to the prince?"

At this time, a eunuch hurried over, knelt in front of the emperor, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, I just found a letter in the Queen's bedroom..."

The emperor took the letter and his face changed drastically after reading it. "It turned out to be her... Come, bring the queen here. I want to interrogate her personally!"

A palace storm is about to break out, but what will be the fate of the prince?

The queen was brought before the emperor. She looked at him innocently and said, "Your Majesty, I did not write this letter, and I don't know how it appeared in my bedroom." The emperor angrily threw the letter in front of the queen and said, "The evidence is irrefutable, and you still dare to quibble! I always thought you were a virtuous woman, but I didn't expect you to be so cruel that you even spared your own son!" The queen burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent! I treated Yu'er as my own son, how could I poison my own son? There must be a misunderstanding, please investigate!" Just as the two were arguing, Jun Mo said, "Brother, there may be something fishy about this matter. Just based on a letter, we cannot necessarily conclude that the queen is the murderer."

The emperor looked at Jun Moli, thought for a moment and said, "Well, since Moli said so, let's put the queen under house arrest first, and then make a conclusion after the truth comes out." Then he turned to the eunuch chief and said, "I give you three days to find out the truth, otherwise I will hold you accountable!" The eunuch chief took the order and swore to himself that he must find the real murderer as soon as possible.

Three days later, the chief eunuch came to report to the emperor, saying that the real murderer had been found.

It turned out that the real murderer was a palace maid beside the queen. She was jealous of the prince's favor and had evil thoughts. She stole the queen's seal when she was not paying attention, wrote a false letter, and put poison into the prince's food.

The emperor was furious when he learned the truth. He ordered the palace maid to be executed and lifted the queen's house arrest.

However, after this incident, a rift arose between the Queen and the Prince, and the harem struggle intensified...

Although the prince woke up, he was still very weak. He learned the truth and felt disappointed and sad towards the queen. The queen was also deeply shocked by the betrayal by the palace maid and felt guilty towards the prince.

The emperor watched all this and sighed inwardly. He decided to help the queen and the prince resolve their grievances, so he often looked for opportunities for them to spend time together and enhance their relationship. With Jun Moli's efforts, the relationship between the queen and the prince gradually eased.

However, the struggle in the harem has not stopped. Seeing the queen's loss of power, the other concubines are ready to make a move, trying to fight for the custody of the prince. A more intense palace struggle is about to begin...
