The Queen Mother naturally didn't believe what she said, "Yu'er, are you mistaken? How could Wanxin do such a thing? Are you deliberately saying this to protect Concubine Han?"
Xiao Jinyu felt that the Empress Dowager was getting old and confused, but he couldn't say it in front of her for fear of making the old lady sick with anger.
"Grandma, you trust outsiders more than your own grandson. When has your grandson ever been so unreasonable and confused about right and wrong? Even if your grandson didn't like Wanxin, he wouldn't have framed her without knowing the truth."
Xiao Jinyu's tone was full of grievance.
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, and thinking about Yu'er's character, she realized that he was definitely not the kind of person who would confuse right and wrong.
Now seeing her grandson so aggrieved, the Queen Mother felt that she was too arbitrary.
"Wan Xin doesn't look like the kind of person you said she is. Do you have any evidence?"
"Of course." Xiao Jinyu showed the evidence he had collected to the Queen Mother.
"Grandma, this is the evidence that your grandson has found."
After reading the evidence, the Queen Mother's eyes were filled with disbelief, "Wan Xin is actually such a person. It's a pity that I love her so much. She is so scheming and vicious."
The Queen Mother was very angry, including because her face was at stake, as she had been misjudged.
To ease the embarrassment, she asked, "How is Concubine Han?"
Xiao Jinyu said: "Concubine Han was in a coma for a long time and almost couldn't wake up. She just woke up yesterday and was very weak. The imperial physician said that it is still unknown whether she can recover."
Although the Queen Mother disliked Concubine Han, she was very angry because of what happened to her caused by Wan Xin.
"Wan Xin is too vicious. Send a few more imperial doctors to check on Concubine Han. Just let me know if you need anything."
Xiao Jinyu, "Thank you for your concern, Grandma. I will."
When Xiao Jinyu returned to Qiancheng Palace, he went to Concubine Han's bedroom and found that she was already awake.
"Ayan, when did you wake up? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
While Xiao Jinyu was speaking, he had already come to the bed and sat down, looking at her worriedly.
Concubine Han had just woken up and didn't see Xiao Jinyu. She planned to sleep for a while, but then she saw him come back.
"I just woke up, feeling a little dizzy, and want to eat." His voice was still very weak.
"I'll have someone bring the food right away." Xiao Jinyu said as he told Ping'er to prepare the food.
Ping'er had prepared the meal early in the morning, waiting for Concubine Han to wake up and eat. Now she can heat it up and eat it.
When the food was served, Xiao Jinyu wanted to feed her, but she thought it was too troublesome, so he had to give up.
Concubine Han felt better after eating. Xiao Jinyu took a wet handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth. His movements were gentle and delicate, for fear of hurting her.
"Want to go out in the sun?"
Concubine Han nodded, "I haven't been in the sun for a few days."
Xiao Jinyu had someone move the rattan chair into the yard and cover it with a thick mink blanket. When he was sure it was soft and not uncomfortable, he picked up A'yan and placed him on the chair horizontally.
The sunshine in the yard is warm and gentle, shining on my body, making me feel lazy and warm.
Concubine Han closed her eyes and enjoyed the sunbath.
Xiao Jinyu stayed by her side all the time.
When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Xiao Jinyu suddenly woke up from her sleep with surprise. She opened her eyes and looked at the person in her arms in the dim light of the bedside. She saw that her eyes were closed and there was no movement.
He supported himself on his elbows and reached out his hand to feel Concubine Han's breath. Only when he was sure that she was still breathing did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Xiao Jinyu lay down and continued to sleep with his eyes closed. He noticed that the person in his arms moved. He opened his eyes and saw A Yan looking at him.
"What's wrong? Did I wake you up?"
"No, I woke up on my own."
Concubine Han woke up a little earlier than Xiao Jinyu, but she didn't open her eyes until she noticed Xiao Jinyu's breath, then she opened her eyes.
In fact, Xiao Jinyu has done this many times.
Ever since Concubine Han became seriously ill, he would wake up from his dreams every night, and then check her breath to make sure she was still breathing before he could feel at ease.
"Can't sleep now?" Xiao Jinyu asked.
Concubine Han nodded, "I slept too much during the day, so I'm not very sleepy now."
"How about I chat with you for a while?"
"good."
"Ayan, it's all my fault. I didn't bring you along because I was afraid you'd suffer. As a result, it gave others the opportunity to harm you. If I had known earlier, I would have brought you along wherever I went."
"If she has the intention to harm others, it's useless to keep her. Let this matter go, and don't blame yourself anymore."
What I heard most these days was Xiao Jinyu blaming himself. Even though it was clearly not his fault, he always felt that the fault was his.
Xiao Jinyu hugged her tightly and buried his face in her neck. "I won't say anything until you get better."
Concubine Han looked down at the furry head in her arms, reached out and held his face. It had been a while since he came back, and his skin color had returned to white.
She stared at those beautiful peach blossom eyes for a long time, then leaned over and kissed his lips.
Xiao Jinyu was stunned for a moment. He hadn't thought about these things during the days when Ayan was sick. He had no mood to think about them.
Now that I was being kissed, I immediately had that thought.
He responded gently, not daring to go any further.
After kissing for a while, Xiao Jinyu pushed her away and said in a hoarse voice: "You are still sick, just bear with it and continue when you are better."
Concubine Han just wanted to comfort the frightened Xiao Jinyu, but he misunderstood her.
"Um."
Xiao Jinyu stared at her for a while, then leaned close to her ear and said, "Ayan, when you get better, let's make a baby."
Concubine Han was silent for a while and nodded.
Xiao Jinyu was so happy, "Our baby must be as cute as Susu Taotao."
Concubine Han did not comment.
Xiao Jinyu gradually became sleepy.
Concubine Han suddenly opened her eyes and asked, "Why did you touch my nose just now?"
Xiao Jinyu replied subconsciously: "See if you are breathing."
Concubine Han: “…”
* Feng Wuyou gave Ouyang Jingyuan acupuncture twice in the past few days, trying to improve his condition.
But it didn't have much effect, Ouyang Jingyuan's body was already very weak.
"Xiaojiu, I will be back in two days."
"So soon? Won't you stay a few more days?"
People like Ouyang Jingyuan are actually not suitable for long-distance journeys and the fatigue of traveling by boat and train.
So Feng Wuyou was a little worried.
"I've lived here for some time." Ouyang Jingyuan was actually reluctant to go back, but he couldn't keep disturbing her.
Feng Wuyou thought for a moment and said, "Brother Ayuan, please wait a little longer. Can you leave after I prepare another prescription?"
She was afraid that after this separation, she would never have the chance to see him again.
This was in ancient times. Apart from horses and carriages, the only means of transportation was through letters. If something happened, there would not even be time to notify anyone.
How could Ouyang Jingyuan refuse Xiaojiu?
What's more, he was reluctant to do so.
"good."
Feng Wuyou flipped through the medical books looking for a prescription.
Ouyang Leyuan has been looking for opportunities to get close to Xiao Jinyan, but she found that Xiao Jinyan was really busy. He was either meeting in the conference room or reviewing memorials in the imperial study.
Since the emperor fell ill, he began to delegate power. He saw the ability of the prince and knew that he was the strongest among all the princes.
In fact, as early as when Xiao Jinyan was born, the emperor wanted to make him the crown prince, but he never took action because he was still very young at that time.
Later, Yu'er was born, and he wanted to see which of the two brothers was more suitable to be the emperor.
When Yu'er grew up a little, he found that Yu'er's temperament was not suitable for being the emperor, and Yan'er had to be the crown prince.
The Nanzhao Kingdom designated the prince born to the queen as a hostage.
Yu'er was young at that time, so he decided to send Yan'er to Nanzhao Kingdom as a hostage.
Yan'er had been away for eight years, and her personality had changed drastically when she came back.
He decided not to appoint a crown prince for the time being, and did not express his opinion. He saw the brothers fighting, and he also realized that Yan'er had grown a lot.
He acted calmly and efficiently, and was decisive in killing people. He seemed to see himself when he was younger.
The position of the crown prince has always belonged to Yan'er from the beginning to the end.
Xiao Jinyan didn't know all this. He thought his father and mother were afraid that he would take away his brother's position as crown prince.
The reason they think so is that they spoil their younger brother too much and give him everything he wants.
When he learned that he was going to Nanzhao Kingdom as a hostage, he knew that his father, the emperor and his mother had abandoned him.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
When I first arrived in Nanzhao Kingdom, I was unfamiliar with the place and missed my father and mother very much every night. I wanted them to come and take me back.
But day after day, year after year, his father and mother never came to pick him up.
After a long time, he stopped thinking about it.
He thought that his father, the emperor and his mother must have forgotten him.
When he was in Nanzhao Kingdom, there was a little girl who often came to see him. The little girl always smelled faintly of candy.
He was the only person in Nanzhao who always smiled at him.
Even after many years, Xiao Jinyan still remembers the little girl's smile, which was very sweet.
At night when he was sleeping, she would sneak into his room to bring him food. When he found out, she would pretend to be sleepwalking and run out in a hopping manner.
Her pockets are like a treasure chest, filled with countless food and toys.
"Brother Jinyan, this is for you."
It is a piece of natural jade, priceless.
He had only recently learned about this, that she had used the Broken Moon to draw on it.
Xiao Jinyan woke up from a nap and found that he was dreaming about his childhood and Xiaojiu.
After returning to the East Palace, he went to the Hehuan Palace first. When he opened the curtain, he saw Xiaojiu lying on the couch with a medical book in her hand. Normally, she would still be taking a nap at this time.
He walked over, "Xiaojiu."
Feng Wuyou was so absorbed in watching that she was not there when Xiao Jinyan came in. She looked up in surprise, "Didn't His Highness say that he would be very busy today? Why are you back?"
Xiao Jinyan looked at her steadily and said, "I came back to see you."
Feng Wuyou was a little confused, "Don't we meet every day?"
She wanted to say that Xiao Jinyan was not the clingy type~ "So what if we meet every day? Just see him when you want to." She would feel at ease only after seeing him.
Feng Wuyou blinked her beautiful eyes twice, "Your Highness, what you said makes sense."
Xiao Jinyan didn't stay long before going to get busy.
Feng Wuyou spent three days to develop a new formula.
Combined with spiritual spring water, it can prolong life.
One more year of life is one more year of life. Who knows, maybe she can find a better way in the future.
When Ouyang Leyuan learned that she had to go back, she started to throw a tantrum.
"Brother, why can't you stay a little longer? I haven't had enough fun yet."
Ouyang Jingyuan knew what his sister was thinking, and said sternly, "You've lived here for half a month, how long do you want to stay?"
Ouyang Leyuan was a little dissatisfied, but finally said nothing.
The day Ouyang Jingyuan left was a sunny and windy day.
Ouyang Jingyuan said in a gentle voice: "I came in a hurry this time. Next time I come, I will bring you delicious food."
Feng Wuyou nodded and said, "Then I'll wait in Daxia for Brother Yuan to bring me some delicious food."
Ouyang Jingyuan seemed to have thought of something, "Didn't Ye Suhan come to Da Xia? Why didn't I see him?"
Feng Wuyou said: "Third brother did come, but I haven't seen him for a long time. He didn't say a word when he left."
Ouyang Jingyuan was a little confused. "This is like his personality. If he leaves, he will not leave without telling you."
Feng Wuyou also knew that his third brother would not be like this, but he just felt something was wrong.
She couldn't tell what was wrong.
Ouyang Jingyuan knew that Xiaojiu was worried about Ye Suhan, so he comforted her, "Xiaojiu, don't worry. Ye Suhan might have something to do, or he might have gone to his master."
Feng Wuyou was a little confused. What was the third brother going to do to find his father? Ouyang Jingyuan stared at Xiaojiu for a long time before turning around and getting on the carriage.
Ouyang Leyuan got on the carriage reluctantly. As soon as she got on, she couldn't help complaining, "Brother, if you like her, why don't you snatch her away? I like Xiao Jinyan, isn't that just right? As long as I cast a spell on them, they can be separated no matter how much they love each other."
Ouyang Jingyuan's face darkened. "Xiao Jiu and Xiao Jinyan are husband and wife, and they love each other. You thought of using poisonous insects to separate them. Don't say you are my sister when you go out. I am ashamed."
Ouyang Leyuan turned her head away angrily and ignored him.
Lu Zhaoyan would come to the East Palace to hang out when he had nothing to do, but he actually wanted to find Wei Chi to explain the misunderstanding.
However, he didn't see Wei Chi after coming here several times, but was assigned a task by Xiao Jinyan instead.
He found that Wei Chi was deliberately avoiding him.
Lu Zhaoyan couldn't help but wonder, that night...did he talk nonsense after drinking? Did he scare Wei Chi? Qin Xiao came to Wei Chi and asked, "Lord Lu has come to see you several times, why are you avoiding him?"
Wei Chi looked at Lu Zhaoyan who had already walked away and replied, "You don't understand."
"I don't understand what's going on in your mind, so just keep hiding."
Qin Xiao was about to leave when he finished speaking, but Wei Chi stopped him and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go find my wife, she said she made soup for me today." Qin Xiao said and left without looking back.
The sudden dog food filled Wei Chi's mouth and face, "Isn't it just that he has a wife..."
After a few days of recuperation, Concubine Han recovered well and was able to get out of bed and move around.
However, Xiao Jinyu was always worried and kept reminding her to slow down.
"I'm fine now."
Xiao Jinyu nodded, "Then you have to be careful."
Concubine Han: "·······"
The Queen also learned that Concubine Han was ill, so she came to visit her with some supplements, and saw two people in the yard.
"The Queen has arrived."
Following the eunuch's loud shout, Xiao Jinyu and Concubine Han stepped forward to greet him: "May your Majesty be blessed with good health and happiness."
The Queen said gently, "Get up."
Xiao Jinyu helped Concubine Han to stand up.
The Queen took a few glances at Concubine Han and saw that she did not look well and had lost a lot of weight.
"This is specially selected by me. You have just recovered from a serious illness, so you need to take good care of yourself."
Concubine Han bowed and said, "Thank you, Queen, for your grace."
The queen looked at her frail appearance and said, "Don't stand there. Sit down and talk."
Xiao Jinyu helped her to sit down on the chair.
The queen sat down on the couch, looked at her son, and said with a smile: "Yu'er, your birthday is coming soon, what gift do you want?"
Of course Xiao Jinyu wanted a gift, but he had something important to ask.
"Mother, don't you remember the prince's birthday?"
Good night spicy!
