Chapter 615: Invited Her into a Trap

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yu Zongzheng and Yu Zongshen were filled with questions, but Old Madam Yus situation was unknown, so they were not in the mood to ask.

Yu Youyao looked blankly at Imperial Physician Hu taking her grandmothers pulse, not understanding why her grandmother had suddenly fainted.

It had been a long time since her grandmother had fainted.

Before scheming against the Third Prince, it wasnt that she hadnt thought that her grandmother would be furious, but she hadnt suffered a loss. She had even set up a counterattack. Although her grandmother was angry, she wouldnt faint from anger.

After Imperial Physician Hu finished taking her pulse, he stroked his goatee. Old Madam Yu has been sick for many years and her body has suffered too much damage. Fortunately, she has recuperated well in the past two years, but when shes old, its inevitable for some old people to fall sick. Old Madam Yu suddenly was so anxious and angry that she suddenly fainted. Fortunately, Eldest Miss Yu burned the Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill in time and combined it with the first aid method on her five acupuncture points. Otherwise, she would have had a stroke at best

Imperial Physician Hu did not continue.

However, everyone present understood the illness of having weak Yin and a strong Yang while having sudden anger. Blood qi would surge and they would fall to the ground. After that, most of them were either paralyzed or dead.

Old Madam Yu was also very lucky to have a filial granddaughter who knew pharmacology and first aid. Even the servants in front of her had been taught such methods to ensure her safety.

The old princess consort broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, she was saved.

Otherwise, regardless of whether he was paralyzed or dead, the Duke Rongs Residence would not be able to escape punishment.

Yu Zongzheng also felt a lingering fear and quickly asked, Imperial Physician Hu, hows my Matriarch now? When can she wake up?

Imperial Physician Hu said, Although shes unconscious, she received first aid and her pulse is calm. Shes fine for the time being. Ill give Matriarch a few injections and shell wake up in a while.

Yu Zongshen also heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. Thank you, Imperial Physician Hu.

Imperial Physician Hu wanted to perform acupuncture on Matriarch Hu, so the group left the room, leaving Nanny Liu and Qing Xiu to a.s.sist.

Yu Youyaos eyes turned red as she stood there in a daze.

Eldest Madam Qis heart ached when she saw this. She pulled her into her arms and gently patted her shoulder. Its all thanks to you that your grandmother is fine.

Yu Youyaos suppressed tears rushed out. Its all because of me that Grandmother

If she hadnt schemed against the Third Prince for falling into the water Eldest Madam Qi stroked Yu Youyaos head and said bluntly, Dont take all the responsibility on yourself. Someones heart is dirty, and theyve lost their conscience. How is it your fault?

The Marquis of Zhenguos wife handed her a handkerchief and advised, Fortunately, youre a smart person. You didnt really let anyone scheme against you. Otherwise, your grandmother wouldnt have just fallen unconscious.

If Yu Youyao really let the Third Prince ruin her good reputation, Old Madam Yu would rather die than be a disgrace. Even if she gave up her life, she had to protect her granddaughters good reputation and not let her granddaughter fall into a fire pit. It was also to prevent the Yu Residence from being implicated in the battle for the position of heir.

If Old Madam Yu had lost her life, Eldest Master Yu and Second Master Yu could use her death as an excuse and observe mourning for three years to temporarily evade the commotion in the royal court.

No matter how bold and presumptuous the Duke Rongs Residence and the Third Prince were, they did not dare to be aggressive anymore. Otherwise, once they fought to the death, the Third Prince and the Duke Rongs Residence would not have a good time.

Yu Youyao couldnt help but feel a chill run down her spine. If even an outsider like the Marquiss wife could think of it, how could she not?

Her grandmother was unconscious not because she had schemed against the Third Prince.

Instead, it stemmed from the fact that Duke Rongs Residence wanted to harm her.

Regardless of whether she had schemed against the Third Prince or not, after her grandmother found out that the Duke Rongs Residence was plotting against her reputation, she would definitely faint from anger. Logically, Yu Youyao knew that all of this was not her fault.

However, her grandmother had indeed

Yu Youyao couldnt let it go. She choked and said, But I dont know why Duke Rongs Residence wanted to scheme for me to go to crepe myrtle garden and meet the Third Prince privately. I have no grudge with them

Eldest Madam Qi lowered her eyes. Although Duke Rongs Residence has been reinstated for many years, the t.i.tle of heir of his eldest son, Yin Huaizhang, has never been given to him. A while ago, I heard Master mention it. He said that Duke Rong had sent another memorial to the Imperial Court to be conferred the t.i.tle of heir.

The matter of conferring the t.i.tle of heir had to go through the Imperial Court first.

What else did Yu Youyao not understand?

It turned out that the Duke Rongs Residence wanted their eldest son to be an heir. They followed Imperial Consort Xus instructions and held this flower festival to invite her into their trap.

Yu Youyao was furious. These royal relatives could sacrifice others unscrupulously and scheme against others for their own interests. It was simply disgusting.

Eldest Madam Qi hugged Yu Youyao and sighed softly. Youve already done very well just now. Dont let your imagination run wild.

Old Madam Yu fell to the ground. Adults like them couldnt help at all. They could only watch helplessly. However, Yu Youyao was still able to calm down and give first aid. Her hands didnt tremble, her heart didnt panic, and her eyes didnt panic.

Such a shrewd and magnanimous girl was the blessing of any family.

Who wouldnt want her?

It was she who had thick skin a year earlier and relied on her friends.h.i.+p with the Yu Residence to make a request for her eldest son. Old Madam Yu didnt say anything, so she just let it go.

Imperial Consort Xu also knew that Yu Youyaos family background and character had even aroused the interest of the Dukes Residence.

Such a family background was only enough for a secondary consort in the palace. However, if she entered the Dukes Residence, she would definitely become the first wife.

There was a Yu Clan ancestor who had entered the palace as a concubine, but there was no precedent of her being a secondary consort to a prince.

The difference in status was inevitable.

However, the marriage of a prince needed the approval of the elders of the woman before the emperor could bestow the marriage.

For daughters of the Yu Residence, there was a rule that they were not to be concubines. If they were given a concubine status, it would be an insult to the officials of the court. Any smart emperor would not do this.

Imperial Consort Xu wanted this marriage. She was worried that the Yu Residence wouldnt say anything, but she was also afraid that the others in the imperial family would strike first. She could only start with Yu Youyaos reputation.

After a while, Imperial Physician Hu left the room. Shell wake up in about the time it takes to burn an incense stick. I can arrange for someone to move Matriarch Yu.

Before Madam Yao could speak, the old princess consort immediately said,

The side room has been tidied up and a couch has been placed inside.

There were also other rooms in the backyard, but Old Madam Yu was not awake yet, so it was more appropriate to arrange for her to lie there.

No matter how angry Madam Yao was with the Duke Rongs Residence, she couldnt joke about Old Madams health. She let Nanny Liu carry Old Madam Yu into the side room.

Outside, Imperial Physician Hu prescribed a prescription and handed it to Yu Youyao. The liver stores blood, the kidneys stores essence. The liver and kidneys come from the same source. The blood and essence fuses together. Only when the blood from the liver is abundant can the blood transform into essence. Only then can the kidney essence be filled. Matriarch was so anxious that her heart was attacked by anger. She was so angry that her liver was injured and she suddenly fainted, causing her essence and blood to suffer a loss and her foundation to be damaged. In the future, she must not be too angry. Otherwise, such a fainting will happen again. When the old matriarch faints once, her blood essence will suffer a loss. After a few times, her life will be lost..
