Zhou Qiongyue didn't know what was going on between Xie Zixin and the eldest princess in the palace. After all, her second cousin was now the emperor, and if she inquired about too many things in the palace, it would be something the emperor would be very taboo about.

In Zhou Qiongyue's opinion, as long as she didn't suffer any loss this time, she didn't care about Li Shihuan's behavior as long as she didn't jump in front of them.

After this incident, Yuan Chaokang became more serious about learning how to do business from his mother.

Yuan Chaokang is now eager to layout his business empire and train his own staff.

He didn't want to be as passive as he was this time when he encountered something in the future. Even if he had to be a playboy, he didn't want to be a playboy who could be easily manipulated.

One wants to learn, the other wants to teach, Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Chaokang, mother and son, get along very harmoniously.

Learning how to run a business is not something that can be accomplished in a day or two. Even someone like Yuan Chaokang, who had been an emperor, had to learn from Zhou Qiongyue for three years.

Yuan Chaokang followed Zhou Qiongyue to learn how to read accounts, choose store locations, and most importantly, cultivate business acumen.

When Yuan Chaokang was almost eleven years old, Zhou Qiongyue began to gradually hand over the emperor's property to Yuan Chaokang.

But it was just behind the scenes, and Zhou Qiongyue was still in charge on the surface.

After Yuan Chaokang took over Zhou Qiongyue's massive business, he became noticeably busier. It took him nearly a year to get these businesses in order.

Yuan Chaokang felt that he had not had a leisurely fishing trip with his mother for several years.

In the past few years, the mother and son have not only been busy with business, constantly sending silver to the border to raise food and fodder, but also worried about their father's safety at the border.

Every time there was a battle report from the border back to Yuan'an, the three of them, mother and son, were worried.

Zhou Qiongyue finally passed the hot potato to her son, thinking that she could finally have a good few days of fishing.

As a result, that night Zhou Qiongyue saw Yuan Bohua covered in blood in her dream. He looked so weak that she had never seen him before. Zhou Qiongyue was so scared that she woke up immediately.

Zhou Qiongyue woke up and just sat up when Gu Le, who was sleeping in the outer room, heard the noise and came in.

When Gu Le saw the princess's face covered in sweat, she quickly stepped forward and touched her forehead. Seeing that she did not have a fever, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Le took clean clothes from the side for the princess to change and asked carefully, "Princess, what happened to you?"

While Gu Le was multitasking, he did not forget to pull the quilt up to cover Zhou Qiongyue.

Although Zhou Qiongyue was still frightened by the dream, she still tried to comfort Gu Le, "Don't worry, it was just a nightmare."

When Gu Le heard the princess say this, she breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she wasn't sick, it was fine. As for whether her master had a scary dream, that wasn't something a servant like her should ask.

But Gu Le still verbally comforted her: "Don't worry, Princess, dreams are the opposite of what they used to be."

Zhou Qiongyue changed her clothes with Gu Le's help, and then she asked Gu Le to leave.

She leaned against the head of the bed and looked at the moonlight shining through the window, but she didn't feel at peace at all.

In the end, she called Gu Le in to serve her. After she put on her clothes, she took people to the front yard.

This war has been going on for almost four years. This was the first time Zhou Qiongyue dreamed of Yuan Bohua, and it was a nightmare.

I don't know if it's because too many things have happened in this life, but in the novels Zhou Qiongyue read, the war was decided in just two years. In this life, for some reason, it has been going on for almost four years and there is no conclusion.

Zhou Qiongyue felt uneasy and wanted to do something.

Zhou Qiong had people search out all the medicinal herbs in the palace and her storehouse that were useful for nourishing the body and treating external injuries overnight.

As soon as the sun rose, he was arranged to join a caravan heading to the border, and the palace doctor who was good at treating physical illness was also sent out.

After doing all this, Zhou Qiongyue finally felt relieved. As for what happened next, it was all up to fate.

It was totally unrealistic for her to go to the front line in person to find Yuan Bohua as described in various story books.

She was a weak woman, and even if she had someone to protect her, she was no match for the army of a country. If she ruined the plan of Yuan Bohua and the emperor, she would be a real drag.

When Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang got up in the morning and accompanied Zhou Qiongyue for breakfast, they could see that their mother was not in good spirits.

"What's wrong with mother? Is she sick?" Yuan Chaochang asked anxiously.

Yuan Chaokang also looked at Zhou Qiongyue anxiously, waiting for Zhou Qiongyue's answer.

Zhou Qiongyue gave each of them an egg dumpling before explaining, "It's nothing. I just dreamed that your father was injured. I was a little uneasy, so I didn't sleep well. I'll catch up on some sleep later."

"Ah?" Yuan Chaochang and the other man were so shocked that the chopsticks in their hands dropped. They looked at Zhou Qiongyue with even more surprise.

Zhou Qiongyue did not keep it a secret from them. Perhaps it was because Yuan Bohua was often not at home, her two sons were now quite capable.

"Don't worry, you two. I've already arranged for the court doctor and medicinal materials to be sent to the border. As for the rest, we will take care of ourselves and not hinder your father."

Zhou Qiongyue tried her best to appear calm in front of her children. After all, to some extent, she was now the backbone of her two children and she couldn't let them panic too much.

And she just recalled the Yuan Bohua she saw in her dream yesterday. Although there was a lot of blood, he did not look like he was dead.

Zhou Qiongyue also felt a lot more at ease.

Across the border, the Tianyuan Kingdom triumphed, and in the end, Yuan Bohua blocked a fatal blow for the Emperor. However, the border was far from Yuan'an, and the victory report was still on the way.

Fortunately, Yuan Bohua had a good foundation. Although he was injured in a vital part, he woke up after being in a coma for ten days.

Prince Rong also made a lot of contributions here. If it weren't for the fact that when treating the wound, he had someone bring out the strong liquor his cousin gave him and made sure the military doctor poured himself with it before taking any action.

Yuan Bohua may not be able to escape the wound infection.

As for why Prince Rong still had liquor around, it was because he had taken his cousin's advice to heart. Originally, there were ten jars, but he had been injured quite a bit in recent years, so he had used up five of them, leaving the rest for Yuan Bohua.

He and Yuan Bohua have fought together over the years and have long been brothers who can trust each other with their lives.

So no matter how you look at it, Prince Rong Li Jingyu hopes that Yuan Bohua can get through this.

When Yuan Bohua opened his eyes, he saw a group of people standing in his tent, "You..."

Yuan Bohua wanted to say, "What are you all doing here?" But he had been unconscious for so many days that he couldn't even speak.
