The little guy tilted his head, as if he had remembered something. He pursed his lips and said, "Mother, Grandpa gave me a sip of water, and my nose started bleeding a little while later, and my stomach hurt. Grandpa said I had an allergy and it would be better after a good sleep. I really felt better after a good sleep."

Feng Xixi clenched the whisk in his hand tightly. He was not drinking water at all. The retired emperor almost overturned the Imperial Hospital at that time. Such a small person was lying on the bed, spitting blood, and could not even drink the medicine.

The Empress Dowager, regardless of her status, blamed the Emperor for why he had to hold the Crown Prince to entertain the ministers. In the end, His Majesty held the Crown Prince and fed him medicine mouthful by mouthful.

He remembered clearly that His Majesty's hands were shaking as he held the soup spoon.

From then on, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's food had to be strictly checked.

Everyone knows that harming His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not end well and will be severely punished by extermination of the entire clan.

They are still so bold. That time, His Majesty found out the ministers who harmed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and directly dragged them to the morning court to deal with them. His methods were ruthless and frightened the other ministers.

Yan Yuning's heart tightened and her chest felt stuffy and painful.

It turns out that even though they all know that Xiaoxiao's grandfather is the emperor and that his father will not easily forgive anyone who hurts Xiaoxiao, they still take the risk to hurt Xiaoxiao.

Are they so concerned about this position?

Or did they hurt Xiaoxiao just to let Xuan Xixi choose a concubine and send their daughters to the Xuan Palace?

After all, if Xiaoxiao was not there, Xuan Xixi would not have a prince, and the position of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could not be left out forever.

"Your Majesty the Queen." The imperial physician hurried over carrying a medicine box.

"Show it to His Highness quickly." Feng Xixi carefully rolled up the little guy's sleeves.

"Hmm..." The little guy who had slept on Yan Yuning's shoulder put his little hands into Yan Yuning's arms.

"Xiaoxiao, let the imperial physician take a look." Yan Yuning held the little guy's arm and motioned for the imperial physician to come forward and take his pulse.

The imperial physician placed his fingers on Xuan Yuncheng's wrist, then withdrew his hand after a moment and said respectfully, "Empress Xuan, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in good health and there is nothing wrong with him."

"Okay." Yan Yuning looked at Feng Xiaoxiao, "You report this to my father and mother, and let them rest assured. I will take Xiaoxiaoxiao to wash up."

Seeing Xuan Yuncheng sleeping soundly, Feng Xixi could only bend down and retreat.

——

King Xuan's bedroom.

As soon as Yan Yuning entered the palace, Ye An came in to report, "Your Majesty, Empress Xuan and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had dinner at Yan Shiyao's residence and now are in the palace. Empress Xuan is now in the Crown Prince's bedroom."

The man lay on his back on the soft couch, his bony thumb stroking the jade ring, his voice so low and hoarse that he himself was unfamiliar with it, "Xiaoxiao is indeed more important to Ningning than I am to her. This day, Ningning ignored me when I called her for Xiaoxiao."

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is still young. If he cries, Queen Xuan will naturally feel distressed."

"Come out."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Ye An left the bedroom and closed the door.

The first quarter of the evening. (Around 9:15 p.m.) There was no sound of footsteps at the entrance of the palace. Xuan Yanyu suppressed his irritability and sat up from the couch. He had to admit that he was no match for Xiaoxiao.

He thought that if he didn't look for the mother and daughter, Ningning would come to see him. It turned out that he was overthinking. If Xiaoxiao didn't want it, then Xiaoxiao didn't want it. Ningning could still be ranked first in his heart.

At least no one would compete with him for the first position. After he figured it out, the man was about to get up and look for Yan Yuning when the door of the palace was pushed open from the outside.

"Xuan Xixi~" Yan Yuning closed the palace door and called out softly.
