The empress dowager did not have the same idea as the retired emperor. She went back to the palace on purpose, scolded the eldest princess and the emperor, and then returned to the royal villa.
The Empress Dowager didn't even stay in the palace for a single night, but the Emperor was convinced.
Princess Li Shihuan waited until the Queen Mother left before she dared to murmur to the Emperor, "The Imperial Grandmother is too partial. Princess Fu'an is just an outsider. My father and I are the Imperial Grandmother's relatives..."
The eldest princess now not only hates the people in Prince Fu'an's Mansion, she also hates the Queen Mother.
The eldest princess Li Shihuan was talking happily alone and forgot to observe the emperor's expression.
The emperor's expression was extremely ugly at this moment. "Shut up! No wonder Princess Fu'an looked down on you even after you tried to throw yourself at her several times."
After the emperor finished speaking, he didn't care what the eldest princess Li Shihuan thought, and just turned his sleeves and left.
Now the emperor has seen clearly that his daughter is really ordinary. Apart from her royal blood, she doesn't have many advantages.
No matter what, the Empress Dowager was not someone she, a junior, could comment on, not to mention that she was just a concubine's daughter.
It can only be said that when the emperor doesn't like someone, all the shortcomings of that person will be exposed.
The eldest princess Li Shihuan looked at her father's back as he left, and this time she was really panicked.
She had always thought that she was special in her father's heart. After all, her father had always treated her well. She had never expected that her father actually thought of her this way.
She actually thought that it was because of her unbearableness that the Prince Fu'an's Mansion looked down on her.
The eldest princess felt that the sky she had always relied on had collapsed.
Zhou Qiongyue didn't have to worry about the emperor. That day, she left the palace and put the goodies into storage. Then, she and Yuan Bohua took Yuan Chaochang, Yuan Chaokang, Zhou Yirong, and Sun Yuancheng to the manor.
The reason why Sun Yuancheng suddenly showed up was mainly because when Zhou Qiongyue, Yuan Bohua and others were preparing to go out, Princess Yongchun packed up and sent her son over.
It is said that when Sun Yuancheng knew that Yuan Chaochang was going to live in the manor, he also persuaded Princess Yongchun to ask for leave to go with him.
In the end, Princess Yongchun and her husband had no choice but to do as their son wished.
Now that the people were there, Zhou Qiongyue had no choice but to take her adopted son with her.
Zhou Qiongyue and her group arrived at the farm outside the city and took the four children out for a few days of fun. At first, the children were a little restrained.
After playing for two days, the children ran around the village without Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua taking care of them, and were extremely curious about everything.
Yuan Chaochang and his friends no longer cared whether their clothes and shoes were clean or not.
The children went out to play every day, and Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua started to enjoy their own world. They would get up early to watch the sunrise together, go fishing together, pick vegetables together, and read books together. Sometimes Yuan Bohua would even teach Zhou Qiongyue how to use a sword.
Yuan Bohua couldn't help but sigh. No wonder the soldiers in the barracks carefully saved the money they had, thinking about marrying a wife when they returned.
Days like this are the real way to live.
At first, the four children would come back at mealtime to have meals with Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua. Later, they would only come to greet them in the morning and would not be seen all day.
Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua simply told the four of them to bring good people with them wherever they went.
A few days later, Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua announced to the public that they had caught a cold after drinking on the roof at night.
When Yuan Chaochang and the other three came to pay their respects, they all did so outside the door.
Originally, Zhou Qiongyue planned to try it on herself first, even though she had already tried it on other people. But before using it on a child, Zhou Qiongyue still wanted to try it on herself first.
After all, there was no treatment technology for cowpox at that time, so she was still panicked.
The experiments were not conducted on ordinary people, but on extremely evil criminals captured by Yuan Bohua for her.
Zhou Qiongyue did not feel any burden about this. After the experiment, she asked the people in the village to take the man to the relevant government office and collect the reward silver.
After Yuan Bohua knew Zhou Qiongyue's idea, he firmly disagreed with her trying it alone first. In the end, they came to the conclusion that they should try it together.
For this reason, Zhou Qiongyue specially sent someone back to the palace to pass a sign and invite the imperial physician to ask about Yuan Bohua's physical condition.
Zhou Qiongyue reluctantly agreed after learning that Yuan Bohua's health had improved, but he would no longer be able to bear the sword in the battlefield.
Yuan Chaokang didn't know that Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua had been vaccinated with cowpox. At this time, he heard Aunt Gulan outside the door talking about the reason why the princess and the prince got sick.
He is nagging Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua outside the door!
In the end, Yuan Chaokang sent Yuan Chaochang and the other two out to play. He asked someone to bring his books over. He read in the outer room while watching over his mother and father.
Yuan Chaokang had only one thought in mind at this moment: he would have to keep a closer eye on these two people from now on. They were already grown-ups, and they were still imitating the youngsters by drinking on the rooftop in the middle of the night, when the wind was strong.
In the following days, Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua's symptoms became more severe, and they even developed fever.
Yuan Chaokang was even more worried about leaving, and was forced to sleep on the soft couch in the outer room. If there was any trouble, he would ask the palace doctor for advice.
Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua were sick, so Yuan Chaochang, Zhou Yirong and Sun Yuancheng no longer wanted to play with them. They spent all day and night hanging around Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua's yard. However, the work of accompanying Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua was firmly controlled by Yuan Chaokang.
The other three people couldn’t get it either.
It only took Zhou Qiongyue and Yuan Bohua about 10 days to fully recover. It is impossible to say that they did not lose weight at all. After all, these were direct transplants and there was no technology to inactivate them.
But overall, the risk is not great. Once Zhou Qiongyue and her husband recover, they plan to have their four children conceive.
Yes, four children. Although Zhou Qiongyue hadn't informed Yongchun in advance, since the child called her foster mother and they were born in the same time, she was willing to take the risk for the child.
If Yongchun had not always been so nice to Zhou Qiongyue, Zhou Qiongyue really wouldn't dare to take this risk. After all, every child is a treasure!
But if she fails to conceive this time, and something happens to Sun Yuancheng in the future, she thinks she will feel bad too.
Besides, she and Yuan Bohua had been ill these days, and the child had been wandering around the yard every day. He had also picked a lot of beautiful flowers and placed them outside her window.
Sometimes he would tell Zhou Qiongyue stories about his scandals in the palace outside the window to make her laugh, and would advise her and the prince to drink the medicine while it was hot across the room, as if he were her and the prince's biological son.
Just because of the child's heart, Zhou Qiongyue wanted to take the risk.
Zhou Qiongyue had no plans to tell anyone else about this matter, nor did she plan to tell her children. She just thought they had caught a cold and would be fine once they recovered.
