To put it more specifically, Empress Wen didn’t just coincidentally fall ill on the same day as Xun old madam. In fact, even the cause of illness was the exact same———–having gotten overly frightened.
Probably, at the exact same moment, when Chai Guangyi personally led along four guards, and in front of Xun old madam’s face, broke the legs of all the servants involved in this scheme against Yu Lingxin and the child, and then had them all sent to the Capital Magistrate Office under the crime of conspiring against the masters, that Li mama that was once treated as a ‘gold medal bestowed by the imperial family’, who’d been comfortably living in luxury in the Wen’an Marquis Manor for more than half a year, also got strangled to death in front of Empress Wen by the imperial guards under imperial orders, dying in Zhaoyang Hall.
Empress Wen although can also be considered to have resided deep in the palace for decades, but because she was aware that in terms of beauty and imperial favor, she truly was unable to win against Li Consort, that’s why, the great majority of the times, she has always strived for a gentle, benevolent, virtuous, and dignified stance. Even if going into hibernation and keeping a low-profile, it was always better to not leave any dirt behind. As such, in reality, the times where she openly fought were extremely few. Even though she also has blood on her hand, whether it was directly ordering or secretly indicating, it ultimately wasn’t carried out in front of her face, and definitely not like the devastating state of watching Li mama getting strangled to death three steps away from her.
Furthermore, Xuan Emperor even issued a decree, ordering the imperial guards to have Li mama put to death in Zhaoyang Hall. The warning and condemnation in this was extremely severe. Even just based on this bit, it was more than enough to make Empress Wen become bedridden from the fright.
