The two of them were boating on the lake, and these romantic things soon spread throughout the harem. The concubines in the harem were just envious, but there was nothing they could do.
The emperor was surprised and happy because the queen suddenly got better. He hadn't had a good night's sleep for several days. The imperial doctors were a little anxious and prescribed a tranquilizing medicine.
Regarding An Qingran curing the Queen's illness, everyone in the Imperial Hospital looked unhappy, but they still had to do what they were supposed to do.
After all, the matter was finally over, the queen's illness was cured, and they no longer had to live in fear.
Emperor Yunqi, who had drunk the tranquilizing soup, finally fell into a good sleep. Empress Yun sat beside the bed, looking at him infatuatedly. Only when he fell asleep did she dare to show a sad expression on her face. After only half a year, her relationship with him was over and they were separated forever. How reluctant she was to let him go. Although this life was short for her, God had given her a man who loved her so much and such an outstanding son. She would die without regrets.
The palace has its own affairs, and the general's mansion is also in chaos.
Because of her illness, Chen Biyun did not continue to come to Qianyuan to learn kung fu, nor did she continue to come to Qianyuan to pester An Zhongtao. After An Qingran came back, she knew everything that had happened.
She looked at her mother and smiled, "Mom, it seems that I can protect you and your brother even if I am not in the mansion."
Lian Jinyu looked at her: "The person mother wants to protect the most is you..."
Although she had to admit that it was her daughter who took care of her most of the time.
"I'm fine."
"Did you meet the prince when you were in the palace?" Lian Jinyu asked casually.
An Qingran's heart moved. She didn't expect her mother to ask about this matter as a key point. She knew what her mother was thinking.
"Well, of course he did. He is very concerned about the Queen's health."
"So...he didn't say anything else?"
Lian Jinyu knew that she was not being overly sensitive. It was normal for someone to like her outstanding daughter, but she needed to know what An Qingran was thinking.
Even if it is the parents' order, children cannot go against their wishes.
"He didn't say anything else. Besides, we've only met two or three times."
"Then..." Lian Jinyu was too embarrassed to ask any more questions.
An Qingran smiled: "The prince has a bad reputation, but I think he often deliberately makes people misunderstand him. As for the rest, I don't understand and don't want to understand."
"But he gave you such a valuable gift after all."
"At worst, we can send him back something of equal value on his birthday, and then we won't owe him anything."
Her words were very tactful, and Lian Jinyu understood that her daughter had no interest in the prince.
She felt relieved, as this daughter was indeed very close to her and met her needs in every way.
An Qingran returned to her own yard and fell asleep immediately, telling Rendong not to wake her up unless necessary. Her nerves had been tense for so long and now she just felt tired, tired in every way. She lamented that she was able to get out alive, thanks to her cousin and the prince. Today her mother mentioned him, and coupled with her feelings in the palace, she felt a little confused.
But I still fell asleep quickly.
Two days later, Lian Jinyu was called by the old lady. She was worried about going to Beiyuan. She almost had a difficult childbirth the last time, and she didn't know what would happen this time.
When the old lady saw her coming, she showed a rare good face: "Jinyu, mother wants to discuss something with you."
"Just tell me what you want to do. What else is there to discuss?"
"Since you said so, let me tell you something. In two days, it will be your sister Biyun's birthday. I thought that this is her first year in the general's mansion. Her parents' home is far away, and she won't go back to her husband's home. So, can we make her birthday more grand?" The old lady said tentatively.
Birthday celebration? Want to be grand?
Lian Jinyu didn't quite understand: "Mother, do you mean we should give her a big celebration? Do we need to invite guests for a big banquet?"
"Well... I've already said what I mean, you guys can do whatever you want."
Lian Jinyu went back feeling very depressed.
An Qingran finally had a good sleep. She woke up feeling refreshed, knowing that she had passed this hurdle. She didn't know where the next hurdle was waiting for her. Now that she was back at the general's mansion, the most important thing was to get Shen Biyun away.
She calculated the date and found that the letter should have been delivered to the Qin Mansion long ago. If the old lady had any reaction, she should have come by now.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" As soon as she entered the East Warm Pavilion, she saw her mother sitting there with a sad face. "What's bothering you?"
"It's not a difficult matter, but I'm afraid it will be done without a legitimate reason, and it will make people laugh at it. Your grandmother wants us to hold a birthday party for your aunt, and it should be grand. Does that mean we have to invite guests? But in the eyes of outsiders, Shen Biyun is just our guest. What's the point of holding a party for her?" Lian Jinyu said with some anger on her face.
An Qingran raised her eyebrows when she heard this. "How can this be justified? Even if she married into the general's mansion, there is no reason to celebrate the birthday of a concubine. I really don't know what grandma is thinking. Is she biased towards father and afraid that he is embarrassed to speak up? She wants to take this opportunity to let mother speak up and take the initiative to let her into the general's mansion? Otherwise, holding a birthday party would be embarrassing and make the people in the capital laugh at us."
"Who says it's not?"
"Then mother, have you told father?" An Qingran really wanted to know what her father thought, because his opinion was the most important.
"You haven't said it yet."
"Why don't you discuss it with your father and let him handle it." An Qingran said with a smile.
"Why?"
"Mother, think about it. Father will definitely find this matter a bit strange. He will definitely not ask his colleagues to celebrate Aunt's birthday. When the time comes, you can say it was father's idea, and grandma won't make it difficult for you. At the same time, you can make this matter public, let Aunt Lian and the other concubines in the family know, and naturally someone will go to father to complain..."
"Well, that's good. I won't have your grandma blame me for being ignorant. Qingran, I can't even figure out this little thing. Don't you think I'm too stupid? If you get married in the future, who will I rely on?"
"Mom, don't worry. I won't get married for a while. I won't feel comfortable getting married until the evil spirits in my family are cleared away. So, don't worry."
"Mother doesn't want you to work so hard for me at such a young age..."
"Then mother must be ruthless and not let anyone bully her."
As expected, after Lian Jinyu's message was sent out, the general's mansion became lively again. When Lian Jinrong heard that they were going to hold a birthday party for her, she was very surprised. She had not celebrated many birthdays herself, so why was she treated like this when she just arrived? Fortunately, no other guests were invited, and only the people in the mansion held the party for her.
That's about right.
However, she was very angry when she heard that the old lady wanted to invite other guests.
