Everyone in my harem is talented

Chapter 209 High Fever

The palace lanterns in the back hall of Yutang Palace were brightly lit. After a long period of intimidation and inducement, Fu Mengli finally coaxed and forced the fifth prince Qin Mingzhang to drink the medicine to dispel the cold.

Qin Mingzhang nibbled the candied fruit in his hand, and after finishing it, he spit the core into the palace servant's hand. Another palace servant then helped him wipe his hands with warm water and rinse his mouth.

"Mother, I want to eat some candied fruit. How come there is only one candied fruit on the plate?"

The fifth prince Qin Mingzhang looked at the empty white jade plate with suspicion, then looked up at Fu Mengli.

Fu Mengli waved away the palace servants who were carrying soup bowls, candied fruit plates and serving as washbasin, and made up a random excuse to Qin Mingzhang.

"Mother originally thought that Mingzhang had become a man after he turned three and would not like to eat sweet things, so she gave the candied fruit to Qingxue and Meihua, and kept the remaining one because Mingzhang needed to take medicine.

It's dark now, tomorrow morning, mother will ask someone to get it for Mingzhang, okay?"

Fu Mengli sat down, patted his back, and coaxed him patiently.

"How can this prince eat the leftovers of my servant? How disgraceful!" Qin Mingzhang immediately got angry, his eyes widened, and he said angrily in a baby voice.

"This is what mother specially left for you. Even if mother is in dire straits, she will not let Mingzhang eat the leftovers."

"That's good." Qin Mingzhang lay down, kicked the quilt and said.

Fu Mengli, who was half-sitting and leaning against the head of the bed, stood up, tucked in the quilt for Qin Mingzhang, and then wrapped him tightly.

"Your Highness feels hot." Qin Mingzhang muttered.

After his mother leaves, he will definitely kick the quilt away.

"Tell mother exactly what happened to you in the Pepper Palace today, okay?

Is it true, as Princess Hengshan said later, that you pushed her first and then she pushed you? Why did Mingzhang push her?"

How could her son be so naughty? Princess Hengshan was not one of those lowly palace servants. She was Mingzhang's sister and the daughter of the Empress.

Fu Mengli gently stroked the cheek of the fifth prince Qin Mingzhang and asked in a soft voice.

The fifth prince Qin Mingzhang hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.

“It was indeed my Highness who pushed her first.

My Highness does not want to recite palace rules under the sun. She is relying on my father's order and insists on making me embarrass myself on the platform in front of the Pepper Palace. My Highness does not want to do that.

I pretended to agree, then pushed her, turned around and ran away. She started crying. I was worried that she would go to my father to complain after crying, so I went back to find her.

She said she would not force me to recite on the platform, so we went to the pond together to catch goldfish. When we didn't catch any goldfish, she pushed me into the water, and I almost froze to death.

She even said she was my sister. She is too vindictive. She didn't fall into the water. I will definitely find a chance to take revenge on her."

Qin Mingzhang said angrily.

Fu Mengli's eyes gradually turned cold as she listened to the Fifth Prince's non-stop complaints.

"Your Majesty, please go and see why you left with Princess Hengshan? Wasn't she confined by the Queen?"

"I don't know. When my father came to see me, I was arguing with Qin Mingyue. Aunt Xiaoji from the Pepper Palace brought her to apologize to me, but she was not sincere at all. She even shouted that it was because I pushed her. So what? I don't want to play with her anymore. Mother, I also want to go to school in the palace."

"You have to ask your father about your schooling. You are only four years old. Why are you in such a hurry? Schooling will only take another year. There are so many palace servants in the Jade Hall. Are you still worried about not having playmates?

Okay, Mingzhang, go to sleep."

After Fu Mengli left the back hall, she sat quietly in front of the piano for a long time until the moon was at its highest point in the sky, then she fell asleep. Not long after she fell asleep, she was awakened by Qingxue.

Because Mingzhang had a high fever at night.
