Chapter 497: Chapter 497: You Unfilial Child

“Meaningless?” Concubine Jin laughed, “Are you trying to say that you yourself are a meaningless existence?”

Their conversation was tense and confrontational.

It was hard to believe that they were a mother and son pair.

Li Hongyuan snorted.

Concubine Jin said, “This thing is a reward for Jiang Ning, consider it a return gift to her.”

“Then send someone else to deliver it. I’m not your errand boy.”

Li Hongyuan turned to leave.

The palace maids were already used to the situation between the mother and son, lowering their heads slightly, not at all surprised.

“Your Highness, these things…”

“You send them to the East Palace for the Princess Consort.”

Concubine Jin continued eating without even lifting her head.

She was obviously very satisfied with the taste today.

Just as Li Hongyuan returned to the East Palace, a palace maid from Splendid Palace followed him in.

Jiang Ning peeked out and saw the palace maid behind him. She immediately stepped out with her eyes bright and smiling, bypassing him and reaching out to receive the items in the palace maid’s hand.

“I knew Concubine Jin wouldn’t let me work for nothing.”

Li Hongyuan said, “Am I not even worth these few pieces of fabric?”

He had traveled a long way to come back, but she didn’t greet him with such a smile.

Jiang Ning didn’t hear him.

She had already taken the jewelry box and fabric inside to discuss with the maids how to cut the clothes.

Li Hongyuan shook his head, and was about to go back to change his clothes and then see the Emperor Father when he saw another palace maid from Splendid Palace running over in a panic, kneeling down, and shouting, “To report to the Crown Prince, something happened to Empress Mother, something happened!”

“What?” Li Hongyuan turned around, frowning.

He had just come back from Splendid Palace, and Jin Zhuzhu seemed just fine. What could have happened?

The panicked palace maid said, “Just after you left, Empress Mother collapsed on the ground!”

“Get the Imperial Physician!”

“Someone has already been sent. Empress Mother also said to ask the Crown Prince to come!”

Jiang Ning heard the commotion and came out: “What happened?”

“I don’t know what happened to Concubine Mother. I’m going to have a look.”

“I’ll go too.”

For some reason, Jiang Ning felt that this incident had something to do with her.

After all, she had just sent the food over.

Knowing Concubine Jin’s gluttonous nature, she must have eaten it as soon as it arrived.

However, the food was sent by Li Hongyuan, and he wouldn’t have tampered with it to harm his own concubine mother, would he?

There was no reason for that either.

Jiang Ning was a bit puzzled in her heart. She turned around and instructed Huang Ying and Chunlai to look after the two children, and hurriedly followed Li Hongyuan to Splendid Palace.

The Emperor and Empress had already arrived.

The Emperor paced back and forth, his brows furrowed, and his face gloomy.

The Empress stood to one side, her eyes slightly lowered.

Li Hongyuan and Jiang Ning approached to pay their respects, “Son greets Emperor Father and Queen Mother, and wish peace to Emperor Father and Queen Mother.”

“Peace?” The Emperor stopped pacing and glared at him angrily, “You still want me to be at peace? You unfilial son!”

Li Hongyuan could only kneel down: “Emperor Father, please calm down. Concubine Mother will surely be alright.”

As the Princess Consort, since the Crown Prince had already knelt, Jiang Ning had no choice but to kneel as well.

But when the Emperor went in to see Concubine Jin, Jiang Ning silently stood up again.

Her legs were too precious.

Li Hongyuan asked the Empress, “Mother, how is Concubine Mother now? What caused this?”

The Empress shook her head, “When I arrived, she was unconscious. You stand up, and go in to have a look.”

“Thank you, Mother.”

Li Hongyuan stood up and went inside.

Jiang Ning immediately followed.

Inside, several Imperial Physicians were consulting for Concubine Jin, and the Emperor stood anxiously by the bed.

Concubine Jin on the bed had a greenish face, purplish lips, tightly closed eyes, and even a little blood seeped out of her nose..
