"There is only the Crown Princess in the Crown Prince's Mansion, so there are indeed a few people."
"The Crown Prince is kind and the Crown Princess is also a good person. It would be a good choice for Shi Yu to move into the Crown Prince's Mansion."
Ling Yao gritted his teeth. The emperor looked determined and serious. Isn't this just a random matchmaking? If that boy really came back, he would not be able to explain himself.
"Your Majesty, I have something to discuss with you alone. Please ask your Majesty to ask everyone else to leave."
Seeing Ling Yao's serious expression, Emperor Cheng waved his hand and asked Shu Yan to leave.
Although Shu Yan was unwilling, he didn't dare to say anything more.
"Aren't you talking about the child's marriage? Is there anything important you want to say, old general?"
"Your Majesty, although the Crown Prince is a good destination, if you really marry Shi Yu to the Crown Prince, I will not be able to explain to that kid Yu Tongchen."
Emperor Cheng suddenly raised his eyes and asked, "Who are you talking about?"
"Yu Tongchen."
"What does this have to do with him?" Emperor Cheng remembered what the prince had told him not long ago, that Yu Tongchen stood with the prince.
Although his nephew was in the Valley of Divine Doctors, all the officials in the court who were truly capable and in important positions listened to him. When he overthrew the Duke Yu's Mansion, he was also prepared to overthrow the imperial power.
His strategy and scheming were much better than the crown prince's. Out of extreme guilt towards his sister, Emperor Cheng once wanted to train him to be the crown prince and hand over the throne to him, bypassing all his sons. However, he left a letter and hid in the Valley of Divine Doctors.
When Yu Tongchen said he supported the prince, Emperor Cheng was shocked, because he had said before that he would not support anyone and would not support any of the hidden ministers in the court.
"He has taken a fancy to Shi Yu." Ling Yao was determined to go all out. The two people who knew clearly about what happened back then were Emperor Cheng and himself.
"Your Majesty, if you really grant Shi Yu a marriage to the Crown Prince, I won't be able to explain to Yu Tongchen when he comes back!"
"Did your granddaughter go to the Divine Doctor Valley during these days when she left Beijing?"
"yes."
"After you resigned from your post to me, did you also go to the Divine Doctor Valley?"
"yes."
Emperor Cheng was silent for a long time, and finally asked: "Why did he come to see you and not me?"
"Ask him yourself."
"Where is he now?"
"Lingfeng County."
"When he comes back, let him come to see me."
"Yes, I will talk to him, but I am not sure whether he will come or not."
"Old General, please go back and bring some things back to Shi Yu to replenish his body. The imperial edict for Shi Yu to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion will be in Shu Yan's hands soon."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ling Yao walked out of the imperial study with a flushed face.
After Ling Yao left, Emperor Cheng silently wrote an imperial edict, asking him to send more people to Lingfeng County and bring more medicinal materials over.
Emperor Cheng took out the mural from the secret compartment at the back and stroked the face of the woman in the painting with his fingers. His eyes were deep and he sighed for a long time, "Sister..."
He was very much like her.
…
A month later, all the people infected with the plague in Lingfeng County had recovered.
Yu Tongchen took off his outer robe that had been soaked in medicine, took off his face towel, and washed his hands.
"Master, don't you want to rest for a while before leaving? You haven't slept much in this month." Yuan Youli advised.
"No, I'll leave immediately."
He missed her very much and wanted to see her immediately.
Seeing that he could not persuade her, Yuan Youli sighed and said, "Master, I wish you a safe journey."
"Yeah." Yu Tongchen jumped onto the horse.
"Doctor Yu, wait a minute!" Jinghe ran over and called him.
Yu Tongchen gripped the reins tightly, "What's the matter?"
