Chapter 2422 Protecting Brother

The palace man complied with the request on the spot. Bai Ruozhu kept watching and breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that no one was doing anything secretly.

The new bath soup was delivered, and Bai Ruozhu checked it again before letting it pour in.

Afterwards, Bai Ruozhu added the prepared medicine to the wooden barrel, then looked at Jiang Yichun and said, "Ah Chun, I'll bother you later. Take off less and put it in. I'll get out of the way first."

"good."

The two of them had discussed this matter. In order to prevent someone from doing something secretly, it was safer for Jiang Yichun to do it. Of course, Bai Ruozhu had to avoid it first.

The emperor understood their intentions and immediately asked other palace people to retreat. He rolled up his sleeves and personally helped Jiang Yichun bury the second prince.

Bai Ruozhu wandered around the yard outside the house. They would live here for at least a month. She had to check it carefully and not miss any small details.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside the courtyard door, followed closely by the guard's voice: "My Lady Yafei, please stay, His Majesty the Emperor does not allow anyone to enter."

"Presumptuous, I heard that my son is sick, can't I take a look?" Princess Masako's voice sounded, a little impatient and angry.

The guard still refused to let me go, "Please forgive me, Princess, I won't let you go again!"

"I don't believe that a little guard like you dared to stop me." Princess Masako shouted, angrily about to rush inside. Princess Ya'an next to her held her back and said worriedly: "Mother, don't be impulsive. Father has his own arrangements, so let’s have someone inform him first to see what he means.”

Princess Masako calmed down a bit, took a deep breath and said, "Okay, then go and tell His Majesty that I want to see the Second Prince."

The guard had a businesslike expression, "His Majesty the Emperor has ordered that no one can disturb him until he comes out. Please go back to the imperial concubine and princess."

"You..." Princess Masako was so angry that she almost shouted, but in the end she cared about her identity, and Princess Ya'an said a lot of nice things next to her, so she didn't make a fuss.

Bai Ruozhu kept listening quietly, and soon Jiang Yichun called her in the room, and she returned to the room again.

"Your Majesty, Princess Masako and Princess Ya'an were coming in just now, but they were stopped by the guards." Bai Ruozhu reminded the emperor by the way.

The emperor shook his head, "It's better not to let them in. Apart from you and me, the fewer people here come in contact with each other, the safer it will be."

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "Your Majesty is thoughtful, this is the best."

Then Bai Ruozhu gave the second prince an injection, while the emperor kept watching, either to monitor Bai Ruozhu or as a father who was worried about his son and wanted to be with him.

Outside, Princess Masako was persuaded to go back by Princess Ya'an, and the two returned to Princess Masako's palace together.

"Ya'an, don't blame your mother for being cruel. I heard some news about your second emperor brother. I'm afraid he is..." At this point, Princess Masako was choked up and couldn't speak.

Princess Ya'an was shocked, "What's wrong with my brother?"

She and the second prince were born from the same mother, so she only called the second prince "brother" in private.

"There are rumors outside that someone poisoned your brother. Your grandfather's family has already heard the news, but those people from the Central Plains said that there is still hope. Your father is trying their own way to save your brother, but..." Princess Masako began to cry directly.

"But what?" Princess Ya'an was so anxious that she almost cried.

Princess Masako's lips trembled as she said, "Your brother is not even angry anymore!"

Princess Ya'an's legs weakened and she fell to the ground, murmuring: "How is it possible? How could something happen to my brother?"

"Now I just hope that those Central Plains people can really save him, but I heard that the process is very complicated. Even if your brother is rescued, it will not be so easy to recover as before. You know the situation of our mother and son, you have to help mother Protect your brother!" Princess Masako tried her best to calm down, and her eyes changed to a look of determination.

Princess Ya'an slowly woke up. She covered her mouth and cried bitterly. She cried miserably. Princess Masako couldn't bear it anymore and hugged her daughter and cried together.

After a long time, Princess Ya'an's crying gradually subsided. She bit her lip and said, "Mother, I will not leave the royal family. I will obey your arrangements."

"Okay, good daughter."

…

Bai Ruozhu took advantage of the emperor not paying attention to get some hot spring water in the space and put it into the bathtub. This could speed up the detoxification of the second prince. She didn't want to use the hot spring water without permission, but the ninja who assassinated Tang Feng and the others was completely angry. She, since the other party was afraid that the second prince would come back to life, she had to save the second prince as soon as possible.

"Okay, warm the water inside with fire, and soak it for three days without leaving the medicinal soup." Bai Ruozhu said.

The emperor wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "Will Jiro wake up in three days?"

"Yes, maybe it can be done earlier. Fortunately, the poison on the second prince's body was exposed early. If we had waited a little longer, it would have been difficult." Bai Ruozhu said.

The emperor clasped his hands together and said, "Buddha bless you. You must have heard Master Puru's prayer for Jiro."

"Your Majesty, you are tired these days. Go and have a rest. The situation is complicated now. You must not fall down yet." Seeing his haggard appearance, Jiang Yichun reminded him.

"Okay, let me trouble you two first. I have arranged all the shadow ninjas and confidants in this courtyard." At this point, he was probably afraid that Jiang Yichun and the others would not have a good impression of the shadow ninjas, so he added: "But don't worry, shadow guards Won’t go into the yard.”

Jiang Yichun nodded, "When our people arrive, we will also set up formations to try our best to ensure the safety of the second prince."

The emperor did not greet Jiang Yichun and the others politely. He thanked them and left. However, someone soon sent a set of supplies, including more than a dozen sets of gorgeous Central Plains clothing and jewelry, in order to make it easier for Bai Ruozhu and the others to change clothes.

"How do you feel about this place?" Jiang Yichun asked. Thinking of someone taking action as soon as he came here, he felt that there might be a lot of trouble in the future.

Bai Ruozhu smiled, "We have come to this point, and we can't allow us to back down. It's just that the emperor's ability to control the palace is not strong. I haven't found out who did the tricks in the bathtub until now. .”

Jiang Yichun also shook his head helplessly, "Maybe he is devoted to Buddha."

On the other side, the emperor wanted to take a rest, but he still went to the palace of Princess Masako. He thought that Masako was the mother of the second prince, and he must have heard something now, and he was afraid that he would be very panicked.

Sure enough, when he entered, he saw Princess Masako and Princess Ya'an whose eyes were red from crying. He couldn't help but feel a little sour in his heart, so he pulled them to comfort them for a few words.

Then he explained tactfully, not avoiding the second prince's poisoning, but he also didn't make it too serious, he only said that he would definitely be able to be saved.

"It's just that the person who poisoned the poison has not been found yet. Someone in the imperial palace just did something. The detoxification process must not be sloppy and no one can take advantage of it." The emperor added.
