After the emperor and empress finished their conversation, Zishu Yan had already taken his medicine and fallen asleep quietly, but his hand was still tightly holding Wan Ge's hand.
Looking at Wan Ge's reddened hands, the Empress felt a pang of heartache. But the moment her fingertips touched Zi Shu Yan's hand, Zi Shu Yan instantly opened his eyes.
Zishu Yan was clearly not very old, but at this moment his eyes were full of vigilance, as if he had sensed what the Empress wanted to do.
Seeing that Zishu Yan was gripping Wan Ge's hand tightly again, the Empress finally spoke: "Yan Yan, your mother will not let you two be separated, but it hurts her to hold on to her like this. Please let go of her."
Upon hearing his mother's words and looking at his hand and the red mark on Wan Ge's hand, Zi Shuyan subconsciously let go of her hand.
But the next second, he gripped Wan Ge's clothes tightly and buried his face in hers, looking as if he felt very guilty.
Wan Ge gently rubbed his head with her fingertips, then said, "Yan Yan, it's okay, I'm not in pain."
However, Wan Ge had already begun to think about how to treat his illness.
He's still too young. Although Wan Ge knows the system's medicine has almost no side effects, she still wants to try to correct his condition without medication.
He's still a child, so this problem is easier to solve. In fact, once he gradually shifts his focus and does things he can do himself, the situation will usually improve.
My previous favoritism towards him allowed him to approach me without restraint, which only made him more dependent on me.
After comforting him for a while, Zishu Yan obediently fell asleep again. Only then did Wange whisper to the Empress, "I'll watch over Yan Yan, Mother, don't worry."
The Empress had no choice but to agree, thinking that things might have to be done gradually.
She also understood that if she forced the two children apart, Zishu Yan's situation would only get worse.
…
The next morning, Zishu Yan was woken up while still half asleep and instinctively reached out to hug Wan Ge.
Wan Ge would still look at him gently, then pat his head and say good morning.
Zishu Yan subconsciously reached out for the other person to help her get dressed, but at that moment she heard her say, "Yan Yan, would you like to try dressing yourself?"
Although Zishu Yan was still a child, he was somewhat scared after what happened yesterday. At first, he was a little resistant, but when he saw the other person's expectant eyes, he obediently nodded.
Following the way the other person used to dress him, Zishu Yan quickly dressed him, and he dressed very neatly, not at all like the first time he wore clothes.
Wan Ge praised him directly: "Yan Yan is great."
Then she kissed him on the cheek, seemingly as a compliment.
Zishu Yan felt rather shy for some reason, her cheeks flushed slightly, but she was clearly happy.
Dressing is not difficult for Zishu Yan at all. Someone as smart as him can learn many things just by looking at them.
After getting dressed, Wange taught the other person how to wash and groom themselves, showing him how to get clean.
After getting ready, the two went out together and then had breakfast with the Empress.
Looking at the two children holding hands, Zishu Yan actually resisted being separated. Letting them stay this close wasn't a problem; Zishu Yan would naturally understand the differences between boys and girls when she grew up, but...
