Emperor Jiaqing also said that he would go to Concubine Shu to settle accounts after returning, but he did not expect that he would be called to reprimand by the Queen Mother first.

"The Ai family heard that Chen'er had a high fever last night. How is he doing now?" Seeing Emperor Jiaqing coming, the Queen Mother immediately asked about Chen'er's condition.

In fact, the Queen Mother only learned about Chen'er's illness last night when she got up in the morning. As soon as she heard the news, she immediately sent someone to Changchun Palace to inquire about the situation. She naturally knew about Chen'er's current condition, but she still I was worried, knowing that he had just come from Changchun Palace, so I asked him again.

"Don't worry, Queen Mother. Chen'er is fine. When he recovers, I will hold him and show you." Emperor Jiaqing said.

"Do you think the Ai family is you? You are not worried about your son, the Ai family is worried about the darling grandson of the Ai family!" The queen mother was not very happy when she heard her son's words. Instead, she scolded him.

"How could I not be worried about what the queen said? Chen'er is my only child, so he is very important to me." Emperor Jiaqing immediately retorted after hearing this.

In the conscience of heaven and earth, he didn't care about Chen'er anymore. This time it was just an accident. He couldn't blame himself entirely. It was all that woman Shu Fei.

"The Ai family can't see it. If you value Chen'er, why didn't you go over to check on Chen'er last night when she was seriously ill? The Ai family heard that the maid from the Changchun Palace went to invite you last night but didn't come." The Queen Mother snorted coldly. once, and then said dissatisfiedly.

The Queen Mother felt that if she had known about Chen'er's illness last night, she would have gone over to have a look.

I just don't know what's going on with my son. Chen'er is sick and is so seriously ill, but he, as the father, doesn't care at all.

The Queen Mother naturally knew that for a child as young as Chen'er to have high fever, it was a very serious matter, and if serious, it could even be life-threatening.

I remember that the late emperor had a princess who was just one year old, but she died due to a cold.

Among the people, there are countless children who die due to illness.

The Queen Mother also heard what the maid next to her said, otherwise she would not know that Emperor Jiaqing did not go to Changchun Palace to visit Chen'er last night.

She also heard about this, so she called her son over and wanted to talk to him.

When he had no children before, he had been looking forward to having a child. Now that he has a child, he should cherish it even more. After all, he is just a single seedling, so he cannot take good care of and protect him.

"Mother, what kind of person am I? Don't you still know? It's that woman, Concubine Shu. She actually had people hide the news. I only found out about Chen'er's illness early this morning. I As soon as he heard the news, he even canceled the morning court and immediately rushed to Changchun Palace to visit Chen'er." Emperor Jiaqing felt that he had been wronged, so he became even more angry at Concubine Shu as the culprit.

It's all Concubine Shu's fault. If it hadn't been for her, she wouldn't have had to explain to Jiang Wan and the Queen Mother and was misunderstood by them.

When the Queen Mother heard that it was Concubine Shu, she couldn't help but became furious: "Concubine Shu, she is too courageous! Fortunately, Chen'er is fine, otherwise the Ai family will definitely not be able to spare her!"

However, she felt a little better when she heard Emperor Jiaqing say that he even canceled the morning court meeting as soon as he heard the news of Chen'er's illness.

This proves that her son values ​​her good grandson.

The Queen Mother didn't think there was anything wrong with Emperor Jiaqing not going to the morning court for Chen'er. It was just a day of not going to the morning court. It had no impact at all. Naturally, Chen'er was more important.

"Don't worry, Queen Mother, I certainly won't let her off so lightly." Emperor Jiaqing said.

Even though Concubine Shu had a general's palace behind her, what Concubine Shu did this time really made him angry.

After hearing Emperor Jiaqing's words, the Queen Mother naturally nodded with satisfaction.

"By the way, there's that wet nurse. Don't let her go. If you dare to touch the grandson of the Ai family, the Ai family thinks she's tired of living." When the mention of wet nurse He was mentioned as the culprit, the Queen Mother wanted to cut her body into pieces. Thousands of sections.

The grandson she finally got was almost lost because of this nanny. How could she let him go.

Although the Queen Mother looks kind now, she is actually not a kind person. After all, if she was kind, she would have been chewed to the bone in this harem long ago.

"You don't need to say anything to the Queen Mother, I will naturally not let her go." After hearing what the Queen Mother said, Emperor Jiaqing replied.

Emperor Jiaqing couldn't help but blame himself when he thought that he had chosen the nanny He He himself. He didn't expect that the nanny he had selected from thousands of people had evil intentions and almost caused a catastrophe and harmed Chen'er.

He didn't believe what wet nurse He said. After all, she should know how serious the consequences of doing so were, so he felt that there was something else hidden.

After leaving the Queen Mother's place, Emperor Jiaqing went straight to Concubine Shu.

The people in Changxi Palace were obviously a little scared when they saw him coming. It was obvious that they all knew what stupid thing their master had done.

Ever since Concubine Shu knew that the second prince was really sick last night, she had been worried about being punished by Emperor Jiaqing. Therefore, after hearing the news that he was coming, although she wanted to hide, she also knew that she could not There was no place to hide, what was supposed to come would still come, so she had to welcome his arrival anxiously.

"I, I, my concubine, see your Majesty!"

If it had been before that Emperor Jiaqing came to her, Concubine Shu would have been overjoyed, but now she knew that Emperor Jiaqing came to her to settle a score with her, so she couldn't be happy anymore.

Emperor Jiaqing looked coldly at Concubine Shu who was kneeling on the ground, and sat down without saying anything.

Seeing this scene, Concubine Shu suddenly became more nervous.

"Do you know why I came here?" Emperor Jiaqing said in a deep voice.

"I, I don't know." After hearing Emperor Jiaqing's words, Concubine Shu buried her head even lower and did not dare to look up at him.

"Aren't you clear about what you did? I see you very clearly!" Emperor Jiaqing looked carefully, and naturally he saw that Concubine Shu looked at him with obvious panic when he came, and even felt a little guilty.

He didn't believe that Concubine Shu didn't know. After all, the news of Chen'er's illness had already spread in the harem.

"Your Majesty, I didn't do it on purpose. I just thought that Concubine Hui was playing a trick to call His Majesty away. The Second Prince is not really sick..." Concubine Shu explained to Emperor Jiaqing: "If I knew this was true, how could I dare to hide it from His Majesty? Everything is just a misunderstanding!"

"Can this matter be solved with a misunderstanding?" Emperor Jiaqing naturally knew that there were other reasons, otherwise he would not believe that Concubine Shu would dare to hide such an important matter from him, but so what, he was because of her Hiding it from himself, he missed such an important thing.

"From today on, your title will be withdrawn and your status will be reduced to Zhaoyi." After Emperor Jiaqing said that, he stood up and left, ignoring Concubine Shu on the ground.

No, Concubine Shu, she is Zhang Zhaoyi now. Her title is gone and she was demoted to Zhaoyi. She can no longer be called Concubine Shu in the future.

Her real name is Zhang Xiaoting, so she will be called Zhang Zhaoyi in the future.

Although she has only been demoted one level and is no longer the concubine Shu, Zhaoyi is also the head of the nine concubines and is still a high-ranking concubine. If she were replaced by someone else, she would naturally be happy to have the status of Zhaoyi, but for Shu For the concubine, it was a huge blow.

Zhang Zhaoyi was originally kneeling on the ground. When Emperor Jiaqing said that he wanted to demote her to Zhaoyi, she couldn't help but collapsed on the ground. It wasn't until Emperor Jiaqing left that she broke down and cried.

"Your Majesty, how could he treat me like this!" Although Zhang Zhaoyi knew that Emperor Jiaqing would punish her, she did not expect that he would demote her.

In this way, wouldn't she go from being on equal footing with Concubine Xian and Concubine Hui to Zhaoyi who is inferior to them?

When she thought that not only had she become the laughing stock of the harem, but that she would even have to salute Jiang Wan when she met her in the future, she felt her eyes darken.

"Empress! Are you okay?" Seeing Zhang Zhaoyi fainted, the maid serving beside her rushed up to help her.

"Go and call the doctor! Your Majesty has fainted!"

For a time, the entire Changxi Palace was in chaos. Some people helped Zhang Zhaoyi to go to bed, and some ran to ask for the imperial doctor.

Emperor Jiaqing didn't care about what happened in Changxi Palace after he left, because he felt that Concubine Shu deserved it. Who let her make the decision without permission? When would it be her turn to make the decision?

She had to thank God. Fortunately Chen'er was fine, otherwise she wouldn't have been simply demoted.

For Emperor Jiaqing, Chen'er was his nirvana, and anything that related to Chen'er was a big deal.
