Chapter 117: The Crown Princess Candidate Has Been Selected



It didn't take long for Gu Jingyu to arrive at the East Palace's bedroom.

After Gu Jingyu saluted the prince, she hurried into the bedroom, "Sister-in-law, Aunt Ye."

Yun Xiangye saw Gu Jingyu coming and said, "Jingyu, please help my sister."

Gu Jingyu looked at Ye Wanhe's expression and didn't dare to delay. She sat down next to Ye Wanhe and put her hand on her wrist. She checked the wound and frowned. "This is a high fever caused by the infection of the wound after the injury. This high fever is very dangerous. It's best to take Zhiyan Powder. It can reduce the fever as soon as possible and save your life. However, I'm afraid this Zhiyan Powder will be harmful to your stomach..."

Gu Jingyu turned around and saw Zhao Yun coming in.

Zhao Yun said coldly, "I already know that she is pregnant."

Gu Jingyu whispered, "It's best for pregnant women to use less of this Zhiyan Powder. I'll give Aunt Ye acupuncture and moxibustion, and then wipe her body with warm water to see if it can relieve the high fever and try not to harm the baby in her belly."

Zhao Yun uttered a dull sound, "Well, if we can save the child, that would be the best. If we can't save the child... Wanhe's life is the most important."

Ye Wanhe had a splitting headache. When she heard Zhao Yun's words, she still looked at him in disbelief, "Your Highness... you... cough cough."

Ye Wanhe spoke loudly, which hurt her throat so much that she started coughing.

Zhao Yun hurriedly walked to Ye Wanhe and handed her a cup of warm tea.

Ye Wanhe said, "Your Highness, can our child stay?"

Zhao Yun said, "As long as you and your child are safe, you can keep the child. However, if keeping the child means you can't take your medicine and become seriously ill, then you can only choose not to have the child. Take good care of yourself, and you will definitely have another child in the future."

Ye Wanhe gently stroked her belly and said, "Your Highness, don't worry. When the child is born, I will send him out of the palace. He will not threaten the child you and the Crown Princess have in the future."

Zhao Yun said, "Have some tea first."

Ye Wanhe came close to Zhao Yun and drank tea.

After Zhao Yun fed the patient tea, he asked Gu Jingyu to give him acupuncture.

After Gu Jingyu gave Ye Wanhe acupuncture and moxibustion, she took back the silver needles and ordered the palace maid to bring warm water, and carefully wiped Ye Wanhe's body with the warm water.

Ye Wanhe said, "Princess Jingyu, I can't bother you to wipe my body for me. I can do it myself..."

Gu Jingyu chuckled and said, "I'm a doctor, what can't I do? Your illness is important, and I don't want anything to happen to my little cousin in the future."

The Hundred Flowers Banquet was held in Shaohua Palace.

Just after the hour of Chen, all the invited ladies and daughters had arrived at Shaohua Palace.

Although today is the Hundred Flowers Banquet, the daughters dressed up as Hundred Flowers Fairies all know that this year's Hundred Flowers Banquet is for the prince to select a concubine, so they all dressed up to attend today.

Inside Fengyi Palace.

The wife of the Duke of Wei said to the Queen in a flattering tone, "Sister, you only have a legitimate niece like Mei'er. No one is more suitable for the position of Crown Princess than Mei'er."

Queen Wei frowned at her sister-in-law, the wife of Duke Wei, and said, "Sister-in-law, Wei Xi cannot marry Yun'er!"

The wife of the Duke of Wei said, "Sister, you only have one legitimate niece, Mei'er. Now our Wei family's power is waning, while the Gu family is flourishing. Aren't you afraid that after a hundred years from now, when the Crown Prince ascends the throne, he will become a puppet of the Gu family and let Ning Wang Gu Ling control the government?"

Only by making Wei Xi the Crown Princess and continuing the glory of our Wei family can we gradually surpass the Gu family in the court..."

Queen Wei frowned and said, "How dare you! Do you know that this one sentence of yours is enough to chop off your head? Are you actually hoping for His Majesty to live for a hundred years?"

The wife of the Duke of Wei hurriedly said, "Sister, you misunderstood. I am not looking forward to His Majesty's centenary.

However, whether the Crown Princess chooses Xu Mengqi from the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion or Lin Bolan from the Lin Xiang Mansion, both Xu and Lin families have close ties to Prince Ning. In the future, they will inevitably help Prince Ning control the Eastern Palace. Only our Wei family is wholeheartedly loyal to His Highness...Mie'er is the most suitable as the Crown Princess."

Queen Wei glanced at Wei Xi and said coldly, "There's no way the Crown Princess can be Xi'er. You should give up on this idea as soon as possible."

Empress Wei's trusted maid came in to report, "Your Majesty, the eldest princess has arrived with two little princesses."

"Jingru is here, let them both in."

As soon as Queen Wei finished speaking, Xiao Jingru had already entered the palace.

Little Jingru was wearing a purple brocade dress today. She trotted over and threw herself into Queen Wei's arms, "Aunt."

Queen Wei picked up little Jingru and said, "Why are you still crying? There are tears in your eyes."

Xie Zhixuan carried Nuonuo inside and chuckled, "She's jealous of Nuonuo. Seeing that I only held Nuonuo and not her, she started to make a fuss and cry."

Empress Wei chuckled and comforted Xiao Jingru, "You are the little aunt, and your mother is also Nuonuo's grandmother. She only hugged her for a short while. Your mother still loves you the most. You definitely got your jealous temper from your father."

"Meet Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Xie Zhixuan looked at the wife of Duke Weiguo and Wei Xi who was standing next to her, and just nodded slightly.

Queen Wei looked at Nuonuo in Xie Zhixuan's arms and said, "However, Nuonuo's mother was also invited to today's Hundred Flowers Banquet. Why did Nuonuo want you to bring her along?"

Xie Zhixuan said, "Yun'er summoned Xiangye and Jingyu to the East Palace early this morning. I don't know what it's about."

Queen Wei asked in confusion, "What could be the reason why Yun'er summoned Mother Nuonuo to the palace?"

Empress Wei couldn't figure it out. Seeing that it was getting late, she said to Xie Zhixuan, "The daughters of the various palace families have all arrived. Let's go and take a look. You can also help Yun'er take a look."
