Chapter 1040 Visiting the Sick and Seeing the Patient
Feng Guang strode towards the courtyard gate, laughing as he walked, saying, "It seems there are quite a few people in His Highness Prince Yi's backyard!"
Even after divorcing one princess and losing one concubine, there are still plenty of beautiful women to add fragrance to the air!
"Your Highness Prince Yi is truly blessed!"
"Eunuch Feng is joking!"
Actually... actually, many of the people in this backyard... were... given away by others;
Some are unfortunate people who are struggling to make a living and can barely survive!
The reason my lord took them in was simply to keep them in the backyard. Normally, my lord... rarely goes to the inner quarters!
Yin Fu secretly wiped the cold sweat from the tip of his nose and said with a forced smile.
Feng Guang flicked his whisk, glanced casually at Yin Fu, and smiled, "According to the steward, His Highness Prince Yi is a kind and benevolent philanthropist!"
We have truly been disrespectful!
Once His Highness Prince Yi has recovered, I will certainly express my respects to him!
"Uh...hehe..."
Yin Fu smiled outwardly, but inwardly he was almost crying!
This is the first time I've ever heard of someone being so respectful of a man who has so many women in his backyard!
If one day my lord were to receive such a gesture of respect...
Yin Fu dared not think any further!
The concubines and maids blocking the courtyard gate were all focused on the courtyard at this moment;
They all craned their necks and peered into the yard, unaware that someone was approaching from behind.
Feng Guang wasn't in a hurry. He stopped and stood behind the group of women.
Upon seeing this, Yin Fu coughed heavily.
Yin Fu's cough silenced the chatter that had been going on in the area.
The large group of women turned around almost simultaneously...
Then you see Yin Fu, the steward of Prince Yi's mansion, standing with a eunuch holding an imperial edict in one hand and a whisk in the other.
Judging from the eunuch's robes and the two obsequious eunuchs following behind him, you can tell that this person holds a high position in the palace!
The bright yellow imperial edict in the eunuch's hand was particularly eye-catching!
Is this person here to deliver an imperial decree to Prince Yi's residence?
Why is another imperial edict arriving?
The previous imperial edict made His Highness Prince Yi fall ill;
This imperial edict... could it be a death sentence for His Highness Prince Yi?
The women felt a surge of fear upon thinking about this.
Looking at Feng Guang's imposing face and the threatening look in the steward Yin Fu's eyes, without anyone having to say anything to drive them away, the concubines and maids automatically moved aside, clearing the path to the courtyard gate.
Without waiting for Yin Fuxiang's invitation, Feng Guang strode into the courtyard and headed towards Xiao Jingyi's study.
The two eunuchs ignored Yin Fu and followed Feng Guang into the courtyard.
Yin Fu, following behind Feng Guang, was anxious. He didn't know what was going on in the study, and he was afraid that Feng Guang would see something he shouldn't have if he went in...
So Yin Fu quickly quickened his pace to catch up, deliberately making his steps heavier, and said loudly, "Eunuch Feng, this way please. The Prince is currently recuperating in the inner room of his study!"
Feng Guang turned his head and glanced at Yin Fu, his gaze indifferent, and continued walking forward on his own...
snort!
Heavy footsteps, loud voice... he's trying to send a message to the person in the study!
Let them pass on the news if they want. Prince Yi's illness was fake to begin with. Passing on the news is just to make the people inside seem more convincing!
What does it matter? I'm not here to see if it's real or fake anyway!
Yin Fu's loud reminder was clearly heard by everyone in the room, who were not deaf.
Eunuch Feng?
Could it be Feng Guang, who serves Emperor Hongde?
What is he here for?
Could it be that Emperor Hongde heard that His Highness Prince Yi had fallen ill and sent Feng Guang to investigate the truth of the matter?
They weren't afraid of probing the truth. The prince had taken the medicine from the imperial physician and was now truly unconscious. Even if a thunderclap were to be heard at his bedside, the prince wouldn't wake up!
But I'm afraid... I'm afraid something else might come knocking on the door of Prince Yi's mansion!
There was no time for them to think further. Jiang Fang, Tong Lian, the physician, and Chang Gui all came out to greet them upon hearing the commotion.
As soon as they ran out of the study, they saw Feng Guang and Yin Fu, along with two eunuchs following behind Feng Guang, approaching them.
Several people hurried forward and bowed respectfully...
"I have met Eunuch Feng!"
This servant greets Eunuch Feng!
"Please, sirs, no need for formalities!"
"Our family has come on His Majesty's orders to visit His Highness Prince Yi. Please lead the way!"
Feng Guang said slowly and deliberately.
Jiang Fang and Tong Lian all had good eyesight...
Feng Guang said he was visiting someone in the hospital, but does one visit someone in the hospital empty-handed?
Furthermore, Feng Guang didn't try to hide it, so when they saw him, they also saw the imperial edict in his hand... That bright yellow scroll was too eye-catching!
Upon seeing the imperial edict, everyone's hearts skipped a beat... An imperial edict?
Is this yet another imperial edict sent to the Prince Yi's residence?
The Emperor knew perfectly well that His Highness Prince Yi was ill and unconscious... yet he still issued an imperial edict?
What is the content of this imperial edict?
Surely they wouldn't order the unconscious Prince Yi to wake up immediately, would they?
Feng Guang only said that he came to visit Prince Yi on the emperor's orders, but he hasn't mentioned the imperial decree yet!
Since Feng Guang didn't mention it, they naturally didn't dare to ask. They could only let Feng Guang into the study and lead him to the inner room.
Feng Guang saw Prince Yi, Xiao Jingyi, lying on the bed like a dead man.
