More than a month later.
The Crown Princess has indeed been rumored to be pregnant!
On the day of the flower viewing banquet, several of the noblewomen who were consulted by Li Yunyan also received good news one after another.
The reputation of the "goddess doctor" spread instantly, and even more noble ladies sought her out for treatment! Her name was no longer limited to the circle of women; it began to spread far and wide.
Other difficult-to-treat illnesses began to afflict Li Yunyan. No matter the illness, as long as a person was still breathing, she could bring them back to life with her miraculous skills.
Of course, she wouldn't ask for less than the consultation fee!
The name Li Yunyan began to be mentioned more and more, and some people noticed that the case of the Imperial Physician Li's family seemed to have been caused by Consort Xian!
Now that Consort Xian has been sent to the Cold Palace, is there another hidden story behind the Li family's affairs?
Public opinion began to rise rapidly and gradually became uncontrollable, eventually reaching the ears of the emperor.
Immediately afterwards, an official made a suggestion during the morning court session, requesting a reinvestigation of the case of Physician Li.
The emperor looked very unwell. He had heard about the matter long ago, but had always been unwilling to mention it. These ignorant officials were just looking to provoke him!
At this critical moment, the Crown Prince stepped forward to help his father out of the predicament. He volunteered, and the Emperor, seizing the opportunity, appointed the Crown Prince to oversee the investigation.
The Crown Prince acted swiftly, accurately, and ruthlessly, uncovering the truth of the matter in just three days, leaving everyone astonished.
It turns out that everything was orchestrated by Consort Xian herself. She was not pregnant at all. In order to cover up her crimes of murdering palace concubines and plotting against the imperial heir, she colluded with palace servants to deliberately say that she had miscarried, thus framing Physician Li, who knew the truth, which led to the disaster affecting her entire family.
The Li family, physicians for generations, were highly skilled in medicine, yet they ultimately met tragic ends, a truly lamentable fate.
Li Yunyan, the only remaining heir of the Li family, became the object of everyone's pity.
Upon learning that her medical skills had been passed down through the Li family, they were even more eager to recognize her talent. Some even suggested that Li Yunyan enter the palace as a female imperial physician. However, Li Yunyan refused.
On the day the truth came to light, the emperor ordered the death of the virtuous concubine who was in the cold palace.
As compensation, His Majesty personally bestowed upon Li Yunyan the title of Princess of Zhaoyang County and returned all the property confiscated from the Li family at that time, including their mansion.
At this moment, Li Yunyan was in her own courtyard, being held in Xia Xiunian's arms, reluctant to part.
Because tomorrow, Li Yunyan will move back to the Li family mansion and become the head of the Li family!
Xia Xiunian was unusually clingy today, hugging and kissing her repeatedly.
"A-Nian...!"
"Yanyan, be good..."
Li Yunyan had no choice but to lift her long hair that had been hanging down her back and bring it to one side of her chest, then tightly hook her arms around his neck.
......
After this, she took a fertility pill.
She hadn't gotten pregnant before because the timing wasn't right. Now that the Li family has been exonerated and she's no longer the daughter of a disgraced official, her child will have a better status after birth.
Of course, if there's not enough time, then you don't need to worry about other external conditions; just give birth! The decision is entirely in her hands, so she has a lot of flexibility.
Li Yunyan returned to the Li residence in a very low-key manner. The plaque on the gate was still there, and everything in the residence was as before, but everything had changed.
The once grand Li mansion is now empty except for her.
Li Yunyan gently stroked her lower abdomen. Fortunately, she would have children with Xia Xiunian in the future.
Suddenly, the sound of firecrackers came from outside the gate.
When Li Yunyan went outside, she saw Xia Xiunian standing outside the door, dressed in red and smiling, followed by a large group of people. He said to her:
"Yanyan, welcome home!"
Then, more than a dozen people walked out from behind Xia Xiunian, knelt down and bowed to Li Yunyan, "This servant greets Miss!"
Li Yunyan's eyes flickered slightly as she recalled the plot. Xia Xiunian took her hand and said in a low voice, "These were all loyal servants of the Li family in the past. I found out too late at the time; I only had time to save them!"
They were servants from the Li family!
Li Yunyan looked at their faces and matched them with those in her mind. Among them were her personal maid, wet nurse, the steward of the Li family, and the servants of the manor. She wondered how much effort he had put into saving these people back then.
He was so incredibly thoughtful! Li Yunyan was deeply moved. Ignoring the fact that they were still outside the gate, she couldn't help but throw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly, and choked out, "Thank you! Anian!"
Xia Xiunian hugged her back, his tone slightly teasing, "I wonder when Miss Li will finally marry me, her son-in-law?"
Li Yunyan burst into laughter through her tears, "Now!"
She grabbed his hand and ran towards the ancestral hall.
The servants immediately began to perform their duties, especially Chunyu and Granny Su. One ran after Li Yunyan, while the other hurried to clean the young lady's room.
Li Yunyan and Xia Xiunian then bowed to heaven and earth before the ancestral tablets of the Li family. In Li Yunyan's heart, this was enough to make them a formal couple.
But Xia Xiunian felt that this was too unfair to her.
He wanted to give her the grandest wedding ever!
He wanted everyone to know that Li Yunyan had finally become Xia Xiunian's wife!
Two weeks later, the grand wedding took place at the Li residence.
The Crown Prince and Crown Princess personally attended to offer their congratulations, and Xia's parents and a host of relatives and friends, except for Fang Zhiyue, also came to celebrate.
The noble ladies of the capital who had once had a "first consultation" with Li Yunyan also came!
The wedding was grand and lively.
Jiang Bozhou was among them.
He had long since let go of the initial flutter of his heart. At this moment, he was simply there as Li Yunyan's partner, carrying a thick stack of banknotes.
He smiled and congratulated him, saying, "Congratulations!! Even after getting married, Master Yunshang, don't forget to continue writing your storybooks! Your fans are all looking forward to your new book!"
Li Yunyan gave him a fake kick, "Are you trying to die! I told you not to call me by my pen name!"
Jiang Bozhou laughed heartily, "The Hermit of the Clouds is indeed a woman who is just as capable as any man! I admire her greatly!"
"Stop yelling! Take this!"
Enraged, Li Yunyan tried to jump over and punch him, but Xia Xiunian caught her in mid-air.
A smile played on his lips. "Yanyan, we're getting married today, so let's not go on a killing spree! We can beat him up next time we see him!"
“Oh, right.” Li Yunyan glared at Jiang Bozhou, then ran back and stood properly.
She straightened her gorgeous wedding dress, a dignified smile on her face.
Having been married so many times, this is the first time she's been able to be present at a wedding, so she definitely has to make a good impression!
Now that Li Yunyan is a county princess, no one dares to look down on her as an orphan. Everyone present praised the couple from beginning to end, and Li Yunyan's face was almost frozen from smiling.
Getting married is physically demanding, and after the guests had all left, she was so tired that she could barely straighten her back.
When Xia Xiunian said, with a wronged expression, that he wanted a wedding night, she rubbed her lower back.
It's not impossible if you grit your teeth and try!
