Chapter 2531 Mother, I can walk now!
The sun gradually sets in the west. Although there is no scorching sun directly on our heads, the ground emits heat absorbed throughout the day, giving people a feeling of being in a steamer.
After taking a shower, Nan Yan no longer moved easily.
Wearing only a thin shirt, sitting by the window enjoying the breeze.
In the yard, bursts of crisp laughter rang out. It was Xinping, Tingfu and the others taking her to practice walking in the yard. Although she couldn't walk completely on her own yet, with someone holding her hands or supporting her armpits, she could walk a short distance.
My legs are much stronger than before.
Seeing her like this, Nan Yan's eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles.
Just a few days ago, the girl cried every day because she couldn't walk. Fortunately, she comforted her from time to time. When she couldn't comfort her, she would use her motherly authority to suppress her. At least she got through the most difficult days.
Even Wang Baizhi said that the little princess is recovering well and can walk on her own, it's just a matter of time.
Thinking of this, Nan Yan breathed a long sigh of relief.
Ruoshui happened to bring in a bowl of mung bean soup at this moment. Hearing Nanyan's long sigh, she asked, "What are you thinking about, Madam?"
Nan Yan said: "Nothing."
Ruoshui placed the mung bean soup on the small table next to Nanyan and said with a smile, "Your Majesty can't hide it from me. I know that Your Majesty must be thinking about the Emperor."
Nan Yan turned around and looked at her.
He didn't say anything, just smiled and took a sip of the mung bean soup.
Ruoshui picked up a fan beside her and fanned her, saying softly, "Eunuch Yu sent someone to ask how Her Highness is recovering today. If Her Highness wants to leave, he has people ready so she can set off at any time."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Can't you see Xin Ping can't walk on his own?"
Having said that, he turned and looked out the window.
Tingfu and another young eunuch grabbed the princess's hands and half-lifted her. The little girl strode forward. When she was having fun, she even shrank in the air and let them carry her away.
A group of people were laughing so hard that they were rolling on the ground.
Aunt Tongyun was still laughing and scolding beside her: "Be careful, don't tear the princess's hand."
Ruoshui watched this scene and said, "Actually, Her Royal Highness has recovered so much that she can walk again at any time. Why did Your Majesty insist on staying until now?"
Nan Yan looked up at her and said, "Why, do you think I shouldn't stay?"
Ruoshui blinked.
Said: "This servant just thinks that Your Majesty should follow the Emperor."
"Why?"
"Because, Doctor Xue."
Nan Yan's lips curled up slightly, and she looked at her with a half-smile, saying, "Why, even you are here to tell me about Xue Yun?"
She still remembered that Nian Qiu had been muttering the same thing to her.
Although it is for oneself, once one thinks too much, the human heart is no longer pure.
And if water...
Although she was brought into the palace by Xu Miaoming, Nan Yan still hasn't figured out who Xu Miaoming is. She even feels a little uneasy about the way she was always scrutinizing her. But Ruoshui has been with her for so long that she has long seen through her character.
This is a smart and kind girl.
She didn't want the filth in the harem to infect Nianqiu and then Ruoshui.
Facing Nan Yan's inquiring gaze, Ruoshui said very seriously, "Isn't your Majesty worried at all?"
"What are you worried about?"
"Those on Doctor Xue's body!"
Hearing this, Nan Yan's eyes flickered slightly.
Ruoshui said, "My Lady, those things on Doctor Xue's body—I just can't figure out what she's doing. Even if she's a doctor, she shouldn't be doing that—"
"alright,"
Nan Yan interrupted her and said calmly, "I know the situation well."
As he spoke, he looked up at her again and warned her seriously, "I told you before that you must not tell anyone else. Do you remember?"
Ruoshui nodded and said, "Don't worry, Madam. I haven't told anyone else."
“…”
"I just feel uneasy in my heart."
Nan Yan said calmly, "You think too much. You keep nagging about things that I don't even worry about."
“…”
As she spoke, she sighed softly and said, "It's not that I don't want to leave, but I have to see Xinping can stand up and take a step on her own before I, as a mother, can rest assured. After all, it was because of my negligence that she was harmed by the treacherous person."
Ruoshui also sighed.
He said, "Your Majesty, don't think too much. Shen has been executed, Kang is dead, and the people around her have been sent away. The palace is much calmer now."
Nan Yan nodded.
Only then did she realize that the yard, which was originally full of laughter and joy, had become quiet, and there was no sound for a long time.
I couldn't help but frown slightly and turned my head away: "What's wrong?"
At this moment, Tingfu stumbled in from outside and stood at the door, panting and saying, "Empress, Empress!"
Nan Yan asked, "What's wrong?"
Tingfu said, "My Lady, please go and see!"
Seeing him like this, Nan Yan was afraid that something had happened to Xinping again, so she hurriedly stood up from the couch and rushed to the door.
Ruoshui also hurried out and reached out to support her.
But Nan Yan was standing at the door.
Two eyes stared straight into the yard.
The few young eunuchs brought by Tingfu were all standing there. Even Aunt Tongyun stood motionless under the eaves. Everyone's eyes were focused on the small figure in the yard.
Xinping was standing there alone.
Nan Yan held her breath.
She seemed to realize something, but at this moment, she didn't even dare to speak, for fear that a word she said or a gust of wind would disrupt everything.
Even Ruoshui beside her held her breath.
I saw Xinping standing there, her little face full of anxiety, but her big eyes flashed with a little courage and determination. She clenched her fists, as if summoning all her strength, and slowly lifted one leg.
Nan Yan's heart was in her throat.
Normally, if this happened, she wouldn't be able to support herself with just one leg and would fall down immediately.
But this time, the standing leg trembled slightly, and did not bend and fall.
Xinping himself seemed to be feeling a little weak. His cheeks, which had finally gained some flesh these days, were now plump and round. He held his breath, slowly took a step forward, and stopped.
Then, take another step.
Although the entire Yonghe Palace was silent and not even a breath could be heard, Nan Yan seemed to hear the heavy and powerful footsteps, pounding in her ears.
"Xin Ping!"
She was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes, and Xiao Xinping looked up in disbelief.
"Mom, I can walk!"
