Chapter 935 The Queen is the Best Person to Him
Jiang Fenghua thought that she was probably Xiao Shang's enemy in her previous life, and they had a blood feud, otherwise why would he oppose her in everything in this life? Because she really didn't know Xiao Shang in her previous life, they were of different generations.
The rain outside was getting heavier. Jiang Fenghua glanced at the sky and said, "Let's go to Yongle Palace to see Concubine Gao."
Aoxue said, "Your Majesty is worried about sending the Second Prince to Concubine Gao's palace."
"I believe that Concubine Gao will not treat the Second Prince badly, but the child has lived with his mother since he was young. Now that he is suddenly asked to follow Concubine Gao, I am afraid he will not be willing."
"I think it's good for the second prince to follow Concubine Gao. I wonder what he will become if he is raised by Concubine Song. Concubine Gao is well-educated and gentle. The second princess is raised so well by Concubine Gao." Aoxue said.
Jiang Fenghua said, "But Song Qing is the second prince's biological mother. Even if Concubine Gao is a good teacher, she may not be able to teach other people's children well."
As soon as she arrived at the gate of Yongle Palace, she heard the crying of the second prince. The rain was so heavy that there was no one guarding the palace gate. Aoxue asked someone to knock on the door for a long time before a young eunuch opened the door.
The young eunuch saw that it was the Empress who had arrived and quickly opened the door to greet her. "Your servant greets the Empress."
Jiang Fenghua asked, "It's the Second Prince who's making the noise. Isn't Concubine Gao in the palace?"
The eunuch looked evasive and said quickly, "Reporting to the Queen, the Imperial Concubine is in the bedroom. The rain is so heavy that her clothes are all wet. She is changing into clean clothes in the bedroom now."
"The imperial concubine just came back from the banquet." Jiang Fenghua thought that Gao Qingtong was also very busy and she probably didn't have time to take care of the second prince.
The young eunuch said, "Yes, the queen just returned. The guards sent the Second Prince away and then left. The servants were unable to coax the Second Prince."
Jiang Fenghua didn't ask any more questions and walked into the main hall, where he saw the second prince sitting on the ground crying and calling for his mother.
The wet nurse and palace maid who took care of the second prince stood by. Jiang Fenghua saw that Xie Hongrui's clothes were also wet and his body was covered with mud.
She frowned but didn't scold the wet nurse or the palace maid. She walked directly to Xie Hongrui, squatted down, and asked softly, "Why is the Second Prince sitting on the ground crying?"
Seeing her coming, Xie Hongrui pushed Jiang Fenghua directly and said, "Bad guy, you are a bad guy, give me back my mother, I want my mother."
Jiang Fenghua's face was full of black lines. She glanced coldly at the wet nurse and the palace maid, only to see them lowering their heads.
"Did you teach the Second Prince to say these words?" She exposed it directly.
The nurse was startled and quickly knelt down to deny it: "Queen, please spare me. I didn't teach the Second Prince anything. It was...he who said it himself."
The palace maid serving the second prince lowered her head even lower, with her forehead almost touching the ground, and kept shaking her head.
Jiang Fenghua could see through their thoughts. They were all Song Qing's people, and Song Qing should have treated them well. Now that their master was sent to the Eastern Palace, they followed the Second Prince to Yongle Palace to serve him, and their lives were not so good anymore.
And they blamed it all on her.
Jiang Fenghua sneered, "Madam Yun and Madam Song Peng have committed capital crimes and have already been taken away to be beheaded. You are not fit to take care of the Second Prince. Come, send them to the menial service yard to do laundry!"
The wet nurse and the palace maid were terrified when they heard this. The palace maid's name was Ding Zhi. She kept saying, "These words were taught by the wet nurse to the Second Prince. She also said that the Empress had harmed Concubine Shu, so the Second Prince was sent to Noble Concubine Gao. Noble Concubine Gao would not treat the Second Prince well, and the Second Prince would never have the love of his biological mother again. The wet nurse also told the Second Prince to cry hard so that Noble Concubine Gao would send the Second Prince to Concubine Shu."
Jiang Fenghua's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said in a deep voice: "Aoxue, slap her hard on the face for me."
Aoxue directly slapped the wet nurse on the mouth several times, causing her mouth to bleed. The wet nurse begged for mercy repeatedly, "This servant knows that I was wrong. Please spare my life, Queen. This servant will never dare to do it again."
"I see that you have great ideas. There is nothing you dare not do."
The nurse continued, "I have a three-month-old baby at home. I didn't mean to say these words. It was the Concubine Shu who asked me to teach the Second Prince. She also gave me fifty taels of silver, saying that only the Second Prince could save her life. Please have mercy, Empress Dowager!"
The wet nurses who came into the palace to serve the prince were temporarily hired from outside the palace. A woman can only produce milk after giving birth to a child. She has her own child.
"Forget it, pack up and leave the palace! I don't want you to tell anyone what happened in the palace. Otherwise, you and your family won't be able to live in peace. Remember that?"
The nurse kowtowed in thanks and said, "This servant will remember this. Thank you, Your Majesty."
"You don't have to thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank your child. It was your child who saved your life. In the future, when you do things or speak, try to do more good deeds for your child! Too much talk will lead to mistakes." Jiang Fenghua said gently.
The wet nurse was stunned for a moment. When she mentioned her child, a warm feeling suddenly flowed through her heart. She left her husband and child to enter the palace to make money, but she didn't want to make more money in exchange for her child having no blessings.
The nurse suddenly felt guilty, "Thank you, Queen, for your teachings."
At this time, Concubine Gao also changed her clothes and came out. Seeing that the atmosphere in the living room was not good, she hurriedly said, "Why did the Queen come here in such a heavy rain?"
Jiang Fenghua glanced at the Second Prince lying on the ground and said to the palace maid, "Your name is Ding Zhi, right?"
Ding Zhi was stunned. "Yes, I am."
She continued, "The Second Prince has just arrived at the Imperial Concubine's palace and has many difficulties adjusting to life. You were the one who brought him up, so you should stay and take good care of him. As for the other maids and nannies, please wait for the Imperial Concubine to make new arrangements. Now, take the Second Prince down to bathe and change his clothes, and take good care of him."
Ding Zhi quickly said, "Yes."
Gao Qingtong was also perceptive and quickly said, "Madam Zhuang, quickly take Miss Dingzhi and the Second Prince to the side rooms and serve them carefully."
The second prince stopped crying, but he sat on the ground and refused to leave, shouting "I want my mother".
Jiang Fenghua believed that he really wanted his mother. What child doesn't miss his mother?
She didn't scold him, but softened her tone and said, "Second Prince, if you don't take a bath and change your clothes, you won't be able to see your mother again. Don't cry anymore, I'll take you to find your mother."
Xie Hongrui said, "Rui Rui will recite the book obediently. Will the Queen Mother let Rui Rui go to see the Queen Mother?"
Jiang Fenghua was stunned. Where had she said that?
Ding Zhi said, "In the past, Concubine Shu often said that if the Second Prince studied hard, she would not leave him."
Jiang Fenghua understood instantly and smiled, "Yes, Ruirui, if you memorize the book obediently, your mother will not leave you."
Xie Hongrui's eyes lit up instantly, "Then Ruirui will be good."
After that, he followed Ding Zhi away, looking back every few steps. The second prince knew in his heart that the queen was not a bad person.
Apart from his mother, the Queen was the best person to him.
