Chapter 252: Visiting
However, Lu Qiniang felt better because the emperor did not give birth to a bad child, and Xiao Yan's biological mother was not the emperor's flesh and blood.
"The son who followed the emperor to our house is——"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince. Your Highness the Crown Prince was ordered to go south to inspect the grain transport. You didn't expect that it has something to do with you." Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"I didn't expect that. How could I dare to think about it!" Lu Qiniang said.
After a long while, she suddenly added, "Your Majesty, are all the imperial doctors there just sitting around doing nothing? Old Hu can cure it, but they can't? It's bad, it's bad. Old Hu said the emperor won't live for many days. I hope the emperor won't settle accounts with him later."
Old Hu's head is shaking, it's a bit dangerous.
"No." Xiao Yan said, "On the contrary, from what I know about the Emperor, he should really appreciate Divine Doctor Hu."
After all, she was his savior.
Speak bluntly?
no problem.
What the emperor lacks most is someone who tells the truth.
"It's not that I doubt you, but..." Lu Qiniang asked carefully, "Do you really understand the emperor?"
Old Hu, don’t trust Xiao Yan!
He even screwed himself.
Xiao Yan: "...Now, thanks to you, I know more. Let's not talk about my youthful and reckless behavior before, Abandoned Mother."
Lu Qiniang said with a smile: "I don't mean to expose your past. The emperor is very good, much better than I imagined."
Xiao Yan felt a little worried after hearing her words.
I was originally worried that she would be too nervous in front of the emperor, but now I am worried that she would be too relaxed in front of the emperor.
"Abandoned Mother, you must understand that he is the king of a country. He can be kind to you, but when he is angry, rivers of blood will flow."
"I know that," Lu Qiniang said. "He's not ruthless, but his position is unstable. He's kind-hearted, but those who are eyeing his position won't let him off. Besides, let alone the emperor, even the steward of the Zhou Mansion, with such little power, has to be bossed around. Shouldn't the emperor have a bit of temper?"
Xiao Yan felt a little relieved after hearing her say this, but he still reminded her with some concern: "Since the emperor himself is unwilling to reveal his identity, you should just pretend that you don't know."
"I'm afraid that won't work." Lu Qiniang said, "Xiao Yan, you know me. I'm the worst at pretending. I can treat the emperor the same as before, but if you ask me to pretend to be ignorant when I know the truth, I can't do that!"
"Indeed. Then just keep calm. It's the same now as it was before. What the Emperor appreciates is your sincerity."
"Whether he appreciates it or not, I am just like this anyway." Lu Qiniang said, "Master Li is the emperor..."
Xiao Yan held his forehead: Here it comes again.
It is unknown how long Lu Qinniang's condition will last.
"Old Hu has made great progress. He has become the emperor's doctor! I can't tell him, otherwise he will be very excited." Lu Qiniang said to herself.
"I'm afraid he won't be excited. He might even scold you and drag you into this."
"Ah?" Lu Qiniang didn't believe it. "Why do you act like you know Old Hu better than I do? Didn't you two just have a few drinks together?"
"People speak the truth when they're drunk." Xiao Yan said with a smile.
Doctor Hu can't drink much, so he rarely drinks.
But he believed in Xiao Yan.
In his words, "Xiao Yan, as soon as I saw you, I knew you were one of us."
So whenever there was something happening at Doctor Hu's home, he always liked to drag Xiao Yan along.
The two men naturally had a deep conversation.
"Old Hu's ancestor was an imperial physician. After being convicted, this branch of his ancestors luckily escaped."
Lu Qiniang: "I didn't realize that! Old Hu's ancestors were even rich!"
"He doesn't want to be an imperial physician. He's not short of money now and lives a carefree life. If people knew he was involved in royal affairs, he would probably be restless and might even move out overnight." Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"The Emperor isn't that scary. Okay, then, let's not tell him for now. If he does say something, I'll be there to smooth things over for him. Old Hu is a good man, tough on the outside but kind on the inside. The Emperor must have seen that."
"Well, that's what happened."
While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door.
San Ya jumped to open the door and brought Song Yan in.
"Songyan, Happy New Year!" Lu Qin's mother was particularly happy to see Songyan. She invited him in, helped him pat the snow off his body, and called Xiao Yan to take out the box containing snacks and fruits.
Songyan stamped her feet, shook off the snow on her boots and said, "It's snowing really hard today."
"Who said it wasn't? It's snowing so heavily, and you still go out for a run. Here, here's your New Year's money."
Lu Qiniang took out a red envelope and gave it to Songyan.
Songyan pinched it and found about two taels of silver. She immediately smiled happily and said, "As expected, even though Qi Niang has become rich, she still hasn't forgotten me."
"How could I forget?" Lu Qiniang smiled. "Come, sit on the kang and warm up. I'll ask Daya to make tea."
"I dare not, I dare not." Song Yan hurriedly declined, "From now on, I will be Mrs. Jiang."
"Not yet. Besides, even if she is a lady, in front of you, she is still the eldest daughter who grew up with us."
As they were talking, Daya came in with tea and said with a smile, "There's boiling water on the stove, make some tea. Brother Songyan, have some tea."
"Okay, okay."
Songyan obviously had a very happy New Year this year, and was no longer the cynical firecracker he used to be.
He pulled out a piece of card from his bosom, looked at it, and saw that it was not soaked by the snow. He smiled and said, "I am here to deliver a visiting card on behalf of the Fifth Young Master."
"A visiting card? He's driving me crazy." Lu Qiniang said disdainfully, "He came to my house, and he still needs a visiting card? Go back and tell him I don't like him being like this. Just come if you want, why are there so many rules?"
"Yes, Songyan will go back and tell the Fifth Young Master," Xiao Yan said, "There's no need to be so polite when you come to my sister and brother-in-law's house."
Songyan really wanted to spit in his face.
She takes advantage of everyone and talks about her brother-in-law from time to time. How shameless!
The Fifth Young Master lost because he was too concerned about his reputation.
But it doesn’t matter, the Fifth Young Master is doing well now.
Because of Songyan, he found a new partner.
"It wasn't that the Fifth Young Master insisted on sending the invitation. Guess what?" Songyan said mysteriously.
"Come on, tell me!" Lu Qiniang patted him on the back. "Why are you keeping me in suspense? Eat tangerines, they're so sweet! This is something delicious, eat it quickly."
She didn't dare say it, because this was a tribute to the emperor!
Now think about it, how many good things Master Li had people send us!
She has made great progress and even got to eat the tribute.
When the Fifth Young Master comes back, ask Daya to cook the tribute rice so that everyone can taste it.
Songyan bit into a slice of orange and found it juicy. "Sweet. Recently, Jiang Quan, the young master of the Jiang family, has been on good terms with the Fifth Young Master. He pestered the Fifth Young Master to come with him to your house to pay New Year's greetings."
Only then did Lu Qiniang remember that Jiang Quan also liked Xiao Yan!
I have to say that Xiao Yan has influenced a generation!
Yun Ting keeps saying that she doesn’t like him anymore, but look, there are so many people who like Xiao Yan.
Which young man doesn’t have a dream of being a hero?
