The autumn rain knocked on the window, dripping like weeping, unspeakably sad and miserable.

This kind of weather is especially difficult for people who are sick, and the clammy and cold wind seems to give birth to eyes, drilling into the soles of the neck and feet, making people's bodies unable to warm up.

The third prince was lying on the bed, and his body looked a little weird. His face and limbs were visibly emaciated, but his belly was high and bulging, like a woman pregnant.

The doctors couldn't diagnose this strange disease born by the three princes, some said it was edema, some said it was liver disease, and there was no consensus.

I have taken all kinds of medicines, but they have not worked. The limbs are getting thinner, and the abdomen is swelling.

Chen Fu has been out of the palace for a whole day and has not come back yet. There was no one around the third prince to serve, mainly because in order to highlight his pity, he deliberately arranged some treacherous people around him, those people were stupid and bad, when the third prince was studying with the prince, they all became docile and diligent.

Now that the three princes are sick, they all show their original faces.

Usually, it is reasonable to have Chen Fu in control, but now that Chen Fu is not in front of them, they are even more lazy to restrain themselves.

The third prince suspects that he was killed by someone and wants to find out who is the master. Chen Fu has been tracking down this matter, and he has a little eyebrows, and this time he went out of the palace to find clues.

They had teamed up with the Sun family to get a lot of money before, but later they had spent most of it to plug the insider's mouth.

Now that the third prince is sick, everyone feels that the general trend has gone, and they don't have any affection left. Seize the opportunity and hit it hard, I'm afraid it's too late.

The third prince had been thirsty for a long time, and he couldn't even drink saliva.

He heard those people speaking ill of him outside, and he simply closed his eyes and let them go.

"That illness is not a real illness at all," a eunuch said in a weird manner: "I have long heard that Sun Mingming was the one who made him have a big belly." ”

"Really? Didn't you say that Sun Mingming was messing around with people outside the palace? A palace maid said.

"How is that possible? She is the princess's companion, isn't it obvious what she came to the palace for? Why is she so stupid and still messing around with people outside? The eunuch before analyzed: "Do you say it? ”

"Oh, that Sun family is miserable." Another eunuch said, "The family is ruined! ”

"Who's to say it isn't? So think about it, can Sun Mingming have no resentment? When she died, she must have become the one who haunted her. The eunuch shook his head and said, "That's why the one in there has such a strange disease." ”

"Oh, don't talk about it, it's really scary." A timid palace maid stopped him in a loud voice: "Originally, it was scary enough for the third prince to become like that, but you still added fuel and vinegar to say so much, I don't dare to come to serve him in the future." ”

The third prince couldn't tell what it was like when he heard it, he was already not favored, and now that he was sick, except for the occasional visit of the prince, no one came to visit him at all.

His body was weak and his energy was low, and he soon fell asleep in a daze.

When he was half-asleep and half-awake, he heard someone calling him, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was the little eunuch who went out of the palace with Chen Fu.

"Third prince, Gonggong Chen was strangled to death outside the palace." The little eunuch cried and said that he was loyal to the third prince and was also Chen Fu's right-hand man.

"How so? Who did it? When the third prince heard that Chen Fu was dead, his heart was completely cold.

Chen Fu has accompanied him the most since he was a child, although Chen Fu is his servant on the surface, but in fact, the relationship between the two is more like that of master and apprentice or father and son.

"Originally, Manager Chen made an appointment to meet in a private room in a restaurant, and I was guarding downstairs, but I didn't see Manager Chen come down after waiting for an hour. So I went up and knocked on the door, but I wouldn't open it. The little eunuch cried and said, "So I came to the shop, and several people slammed the door open." Just as he saw that Mr. Chen had fallen to the ground and died, the door was inserted from the inside, and the person who had killed him escaped through the window. ”

"Did you report to the official? Do you know who Chen Fu wants to meet? The third prince asked desperately, panting.

"Manager Chen didn't say it, and the little ones didn't dare to ask." The little eunuch said pitifully: "The shopkeeper has already reported to the official, and the people from the official government have also come to see it and carried back the body of Gonggong Chen." ”

"Needless to say, Chen Fu must have found something." The third prince looked at the roof of the shed in a daze and muttered: "The person who harmed him is the person who harmed me." ”

The little eunuch saw that his expression was very terrible, and quietly withdrew.

The third prince has been there all the time, and if someone next to him looks at him at this time, they will definitely think that he is already a dead corpse.

I don't know how long later, the palace maids and eunuchs outside suddenly became restless, like a flock of frightened sparrows.

A few of them rushed to the house, pretending to serve with all their hearts.

It turned out that the crown prince came.

The prince braved the rain and brought Doctor Lu with him.

"Ever since you got sick, Qingqing has been worried. It's just that this Doctor Lu went to the south and only recently returned. The prince said gently: "Qingqing said that this Doctor Lu is very good at treating incurable diseases, maybe your disease will be cured soon in his hands." ”

When the third prince heard Xiao Qingqing's name, the softest part of his heart was touched. It turned out that that person always remembered herself, and she was still gentle, kind and attentive like when she was a child.

The eyes of the third prince, which had long been dry, suddenly burst into tears, and the prince and the people around him thought that he was worried about his illness, but they didn't know that he was moved by Xiao Qingqing's concern.

As soon as Lu Shenyi checked the pulse of the third prince, he rolled his eyelids and looked at him, and asked him to stick out his tongue to take a look.

Finally, he said: "It's not a secret, Your Highness's disease is a worm disease, but this disease only exists in a few villages in the Southern Barbarian Department, how can you get it if you live in the palace?" ”

"You don't have to investigate the source of the disease first, but you should cure the disease first." The prince said: "Is this disease easy to treat?" ”

"If it is detected early, it can be eradicated with continuous medication for three months, and there will be no sequelae after recovery. With all due respect, His Royal Highness has been sick for a long time and has already injured his internal organs. Even if you do your best to treat it, although your life can be saved, you will still be weak, and it will never be possible to return to your previous state. ”

This is equivalent to saying that the third prince can still save a life, but he has also become a wasted person.

"Is there really no better way?" The prince asked anxiously: "He is not yet twenty years old, he is still so young, and there is a long way to go." ”

"Well, it may also be because the little talent is shallow. I will prescribe medicine to His Highness first and take it as prescribed. It would have been great if there had been a more intelligent doctor to take over. ”
