The sage has awakened!
The royal tent instantly became lively.
Several imperial physicians went in and out, while Helian Chen and several other trusted generals also gathered outside the royal tent.
"How is it? Has the Sage's health fully recovered?"
Xie Yuan stood nearby, his eyes fixed on the head of the Imperial Medical Academy.
The chief physician took his pulse and examined his body. After a thorough examination, he finally smiled from the bottom of his heart, a smile that had been on his face for the past few days.
He stood up, bowed to Xie Yuan, and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is well!"
"I just haven't been able to eat during this time, and my body is extremely weak!"
With proper care and nutrition, you'll recover completely!
The academy director was genuinely happy.
Great! The sage has awakened. All of them, along with their families and clans, are doomed.
Waaah, if anyone ever says that the Empress is easy to talk to and a kind and benevolent person again, the chief physician and the other imperial physicians will definitely spit in their faces.
The Empress did not actually call for war, but her extremely calm gaze was truly terrifying.
Sometimes, the people who don't make harsh statements are the most ruthless when they do things.
After this ordeal in Zhongzhou, the entire Imperial Medical Academy will likely hold Empress Xie Yuan in even higher esteem.
"That's good! That's good!"
Xie Yuan shed tears of joy once again.
"By the way, you all hurry up and prepare some nourishing medicinal cuisine to properly replenish the Emperor's strength!"
Xie Yuan's heart was entirely devoted to Helian Jue, so even though the imperial physician said he was fine, she still hoped to give Helian Jue the best care.
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
The chief physician, representing all the imperial physicians, responded in unison.
"Someone, tell the monks and Taoists outside to change their chanting of the scriptures for fulfilling vows and praying for blessings."
Xie Yuan dismissed the imperial physician, but he did not forget about "theology".
She is a family member of a patient who has gone through a great ordeal. Her loved one finally escaped death, perhaps due to proper medical treatment or divine protection.
But whatever the reason, she wanted to fulfill the wish she had made to God in her despair.
"yes!"
Luo Peiyu, who was guarding outside the royal tent, quickly responded to Xie Yuan's instructions.
"Helian Chen!"
"The awakening of a sage is a great joy for the world, and should be celebrated by all."
"However, since His Majesty is in Zhongzhou, we can only celebrate briefly in the military camp for now."
"On behalf of His Majesty, I hereby bestow upon all soldiers one pound of meat and one jar of wine!"
Xie Yuan was overjoyed; she threw a lavish banquet like a nouveau riche.
Helian Jue watched with a smile, neither speaking nor interfering.
He knew that A Yuan was just too excited and didn't know how to express it.
Whatever. As long as A Yuan is happy, Helian Jue would be willing to treat the 100,000-strong army to meat and wine, or even grant a general amnesty.
...
While the Central Plains were filled with joy, there was still a sense of oppressive tension in the capital, as if a storm was brewing.
"The heir of the Marquis of Anle? That Chen Fuli?"
Xie Zhen was arranged by Xie Yuan to stay in the palace with the four little ones.
However, he would still go to the Hongwen Hall to study during the day.
During a break in class, a young eunuch he didn't recognize ran up to him and said that someone was looking for him and had arranged to meet him in the Imperial Garden.
Xie Zhen: ...Who is it? Why are they being so mysterious?
"My sister said it's better not to see people like this who are hiding their true intentions!"
"If someone doesn't even dare to give their name, they're probably not a good person!"
"Never let bad people take advantage of your curiosity!"
As a child raised by Xie Yuan, Xie Zhen always listened to her older sister.
The chubby boy himself is intelligent, so he wouldn't just go to meet a stranger.
Seeing that Xie Zhen remained unmoved, the young eunuch grew anxious and finally revealed the man's identity.
Xie Zhen repeated, "Chen Fuli? The heir of the Marquis of Anle?"
Xie Zhen also knew something about this person.
On one occasion when he visited the palace, his elder sister explained to him with great interest the "relative" relationship between the two families.
Marquis Anle was the last emperor of the Southern Dynasty, and Xie Yuan and his sister's biological mother was surnamed Chen, who also came from the Southern Dynasty's imperial family.
According to blood relations, Marquis Anle was a direct cousin of the Chen family.
Both Xie Yuan and Xie Zhen had to address Marquis Anle as their maternal uncle.
Chen Fuli, the heir apparent, is also their cousin!
Xie Zhen: ...
These distant relatives, like a distant cousin who has been missing for several years, are basically strangers to each other.
However, since the person had already come looking for them and introduced themselves, Xie Zhen could no longer avoid them.
He was not just a seven or eight-year-old child, but also the patriarch of the Xie clan.
"Since he is the heir of the Marquis of Anle's mansion, I should not be impolite."
Xie Zhen spoke in a very formal and methodical manner.
His words were not only a reply to the young eunuch, but also a message to those around him: I am not going with a stranger, but to see Chen Fuli.
If something happens to me, just go directly to the Marquis of Anle's residence to demand my return.
Of course, doing so doesn't make much of a difference.
Xie Zhen was still accompanied by two guards.
In addition, Xie Zhen also knew that her sister and brother-in-law had arranged people in the palace.
As long as he doesn't wander off or leave the palace rashly, no one will harm him.
Upon arriving at the Imperial Garden, Xie Zhen saw a young man in his early twenties.
He was wearing a red round-neck blouse, tall and elegant, with an extraordinary air about him.
Come to think of it, this man was once the crown prince.
If the Southern Dynasty had not fallen, he would still be the esteemed Crown Prince, second only to the Emperor!
Unfortunately, with the fall of the country, Chen Fuli, the crown prince, became the awkward heir of the Marquis of Anle.
