The little baby, as small as a bean, has a bad temper. He will be very difficult to appease when he grows up.

Emperor Shangwen put down the tea in his hand, looked at the little princess in his arms and smiled helplessly.

Prime Minister Lu's minions have not yet been completely cleared out of the harem.

Fortunately, with the Duan family around, the rumors about what was happening outside the palace walls could be quelled.

The rumors that the little princess was a disaster star were becoming more and more outrageous.

Although he was secretly suppressing the rumors, there were still people who continued to make trouble. If word got out that Xiao Ruyu knew medical skills, he was afraid that the sorcerers in the capital would find a way to capture his little princess.

Emperor Shangwen naturally regarded the little princess as a lucky star. Although Xiao Ruyu was less than a month old, she could prescribe medicine and cure diseases, and if this news got out it would be bad for the little princess.

The little princess is still young and has no ability to protect herself, so he must restrain the little princess's brilliance and let her grow up safely and smoothly.

His little princess should be happy and safe.

Xiao Ruyu could tell that her father was coaxing her, but she didn't get angry. She showed her two little milk teeth and smiled with her eyebrows curved.

[Daddy, you must keep your word. People who lie will be in trouble! ]

[But it's not easy for Daddy either. Prime Minister Lu not only has many spies in the harem, but also in the imperial court. Speaking of which, the father and son of the Lu family are really powerful.]

When Emperor Shangwen heard this, he frowned. Prime Minister Lu and his eldest son Lu Zongyuan had never gotten along. Whenever the two were in the court, they would quarrel over their different political views.

Take the drought in Xuzhou two years ago as an example. The Minister of Personnel Lu Zongyuan felt that the court should send officials to escort the prisoners in person to avoid any trouble.

Prime Minister Lu felt that the matter should be handed over to the imperial envoy of the court. As long as the task could be completed, it would be fine. In short, the relationship between father and son was very bad, and the court officials had become accustomed to it over the years.

Emperor Shangwen was somewhat puzzled. Could it be that the father and son were pretending to be incompatible in order to confuse others' suspicion?

[Speaking of which, the Minister of Personnel was quite scheming. He knew that he and his father were both civil officials. If they worked together, the emperor would definitely be worried. So the two of them started acting and pretended to have a disagreement.]

[The people have been complaining about the tax increase in the past two years. The Minister of Personnel suppressed the matter in the name of his father.]

[The entire imperial court has become the Lu family's money bag. Dad advocates frugality, but the Lu family lives a more extravagant life than the people in the palace.]

Xiao Ruyu nibbled on her little hand and babbled with her rosy little mouth, which was very adorable.

When Concubine De saw that Emperor Shangwen looked unhappy, she asked quickly.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?"

Emperor Shangwen shook his head and put Xiao Ruyu in the cradle.

The matter of Lu Zongyuan made Emperor Shangwen feel uneasy.

If the father and son were both acting, then he would have been kept in the dark for many years. The Lu family was really bold. In this case, he would first remove Prime Minister Lu's left and right arms.

"Nothing, I still have some things to deal with, my beloved, just play with the little princess."

As he said that, Emperor Shangwen stood up and kissed the little princess. Xiao Ruyu's cheeks were itchy from the stubble, but she rubbed Emperor Shangwen's cheek and said proudly.

[Daddy is really a hard worker. Being an emperor is so hard. Fortunately, Yu'er is still a baby. She just needs to lie down and grow up every day. Daddy, please take good care of yourself. The bad guys haven't fallen yet. The little lucky star will bless you.]

The soft and cute voice of the little princess entered Emperor Shangwen's mind, and he was deeply moved. She is indeed a caring little girl. She knows how to feel sorry for her father even before she grows up.

Emperor Shangwen stood up and left Fengyi Palace.

Concubine De played with the little princess for a while and left reluctantly because the eldest prince was still injured and needed someone to take care of him.

Thinking of the restless maid that Concubine Li arranged to be beside Xiao Ru'an, she decided to take care of the boy herself.

Although he is not her son, she has raised him for many years, so how could she not have feelings for him?

"Little princess, eat your meal obediently. I will play with you next time."

Having said that, Concubine De left with her maid.

Xiao Ruyu nestled in Eleven's arms and spoke in a baby voice.

"Eleven, I want to see Doctor Yang."

Duan Cenyue nodded, "Princess, I will go find Doctor Yang."

Xiao Ruyu nodded and watched Duan Cenyue leave. She thought to herself how boring it was. She wondered how long he would have to stay in the cradle for him to grow up.

The decades I spent in Medicine King Valley seemed like a blink of an eye. I didn’t expect that after becoming a little baby, each day would pass so slowly.

Her stomach started to growl, and the wet nurse hurriedly took care of her to drink milk. After she finished her meal obediently, Xiao Ruyu pulled her pocket, her mind running wild.

[Concubine Li is not a quiet person. I don't know what she is doing in the cold palace. It would be better if the mother sent someone to keep an eye on her. ]

[Alas, the scourge will last for a thousand years. Concubine Li has the support of the Lu family. What's the difference between her and a grasshopper in autumn? Mother, you have to work harder. ]

After visiting the little prince Xiao Ruijin, Queen Duan returned to the princess' palace. Although the little prince was rescued, he was still weak and sickly, and had been taking medicine for the past two days.

Doctor Yang said that although the little prince had been cured of the poison, his body was still poisoned by the insect, and he needed to take medicine to nourish his body before he reached adulthood.

Her poor child was actually murdered by Concubine Li. Thinking of the ending described by the little princess, Queen Duan couldn't stop trembling.

[Mom, why are your eyes so red? Did your naughty brother make me angry? Humph! That won’t do!]

After hearing the little princess' caring words, Queen Duan's originally excited emotions were finally calmed down.

She lifted the little princess from the cradle, wiped the saliva from her cheek, and sighed.

"Yu'er, I just went to visit Jin'er. He was infected with a poisonous insect and needs medicine to recuperate. It's my fault that I didn't protect you well."

Queen Duan was extremely beautiful, and the tears in her eyes made people feel distressed.

Xiao Ruyu sighed, scratched around with her little paws, and actually raised her hand to touch Queen Duan's cheek.

[Don't cry, mother. With Yu'er here, my brother will be fine. He just needs to be treated with medicine. If we can cut my brother's finger and release the poisonous blood from the insect, my brother's health will improve a lot.]

When Queen Duan heard that there was a solution, she looked at Xiao Ruyu with burning eyes, wanting to hear clearly what she would say next.

Fortunately, the little princess didn't keep the secret and continued to mutter.

[This is recorded in Volume 50 of Yang Taiyi's Records of Xiyi.]

[Although it is definitely not as good as an ordinary person's body, it will definitely not affect your life. 】

Xiao Ruyu secretly complained in her heart, and suddenly remembered that the Queen could not hear her thoughts, and she couldn't help but sigh.

[My little princess, I have done something stupid again. My mother can’t hear my true feelings. What should I do?]

Xiao Ruyu's originally grown little face was slightly wrinkled, and she was trying her best to solve the matter.

When Queen Duan heard her daughter's thoughts, she dismissed the palace maids around her and kissed the little princess on the cheek with a gentle tone.
