At night, densely packed stars merge into a Milky Way, shining brightly.
Lizhi and others were sent back to the house by Hua Fushu to rest, and only the couple were left in the house.
Hua Fushu told Ye Zelin the results of the Empress's pulse diagnosis and also mentioned the Empress's falsification of medical records.
"The Imperial Hospital did not falsify the Empress's medical records." Ye Zelin rested his smooth chin on Hua Fushu's left shoulder and circled Hua Fushu's soft waist from behind.
Hua Fushu shook her shoulders and moved Ye Zelin's chin away from her shoulders. The man was so close to her, like a stove pressed against her. He didn't feel hot, but she did.
"How is that possible? The Empress' pulse is not as written in the medical records. She is in good health." Hua Fushu didn't believe that the medical records of the Imperial Hospital were not forged.
"The Empress's medical records are indeed genuine." Ye Zelin revealed some inside information to Hua Fushu, "The eldest prince is the Empress's biological son, the deceased Crown Prince Huaizhang. The Empress suffered injuries while giving birth to the young prince, and the imperial physician warned that if she didn't take good care of herself, she would have difficulty conceiving an heir. A few years later, the young prince, less than four years old, suddenly passed away. Soon after, His Majesty noticed something was wrong with her health and summoned the imperial physician. The physician said His Majesty was suffering from suspected poisoning. Within half a day, the physician mysteriously passed away at home. Upon learning of the physician's death, His Majesty knew the poisoning was serious, so he began investigating. He traced it back to Prince Qinghe. His Majesty's poisoning was caused by Prince Qinghe, and there were multiple toxins in his body that could not be cured. These toxins would gradually erode his body until his body could no longer withstand it..."
Speaking of this, Ye Zelin's eyes were a little moist. His Majesty has almost reached his limit, which may last for a year at most or less than half a year at least.
He knew that the next few months would be the success or failure of their years of planning.
"Fushu, Your Majesty doesn't have many months left."
"Maybe it won't last even half a year."
Hua Fushu put her arm around Ye Zelin's shoulders and let him lean on her shoulders. She knew that it was useless to say anything to comfort Ye Zelin, so it would be better to let him lean on her for a while.
The friendship between Ye Zelin and His Majesty goes far beyond the relationship between a monarch and his subject. They are close friends who understand and appreciate each other, and half-brothers who can trust each other without suspicion.
His feelings towards Your Majesty are different from those towards anyone else. If Your Majesty is in trouble, given his personality, he would be willing to die for Your Majesty.
Ye Zelin raised his head and said calmly, "Fushu, I'm going to the northern border soon. I'll trouble you to take care of the house."
It's time to close the line in the north.
Prince Qinghe's arm should be broken too.
Hua Fushu responded to him, "I will."
…
Wei Jie'er is almost three months old. The little girl has fair and tender skin and a pair of big watery eyes. She is so cute that she almost melts Hua Fushu. She doesn't want to let go when he holds her. Even when Dugu Lanxi comes to hold her, she is unwilling to give her back to Dugu Lanxi.
Dugu Lanxi chuckled and teased Hua Fushu, "Here you go, here you go. If you like Weirui, take Weirui back to your Guanju Pavilion. I just want to have some free time. It's okay for Wei'er to stay the night at your place. But don't bring her back to me if she cries."
Dugu Lanxi was joking, but Hua Fushu didn't take it seriously. Wei Jie'er was only a few months old and was inseparable from her mother. She didn't dare to carry Wei Jie'er back to Guanju Pavilion.
"Really carry her back to Guanju Pavilion. Big sister-in-law really wants to leave Weijie." Hua Fushu held Weijie's little butt in his hand and looked at her delicate face. "Weijie, can you come back to Guanju Pavilion with me? There are so many fun things there."
Dugu Lanxi pretended to glare at Hua Fushu, "How dare you."
"No, no, auntie is timid."
In the afternoon, the old general sent someone to invite Hua Fushu to Feiyuan. When Hua Fushu arrived at Feiyuan, he found that his mother-in-law, Madam Ouyang, was also there.
The old general called Madam Ouyang and Hua Fushu, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, to Feiyuan for Wei Jie'er's hundred-day banquet.
The old general said that Wei Jie'er is the first child of the Ye family, so the full-month banquet and the hundred-day banquet should also be grand.
Madam Ouyang said that since Sister Wei’s full-month banquet was a grand one, the hundred-day banquet should be smaller. Isn’t it a bit ostentatious to hold a grand one-hundred-day banquet?
The old general gave her a sharp look and Madam Ouyang fell silent.
"She's my great-granddaughter, I can have a grand celebration if I want!"
The old lady finished her overbearing words and didn't forget to criticize Madam Ouyang, "Are you Wei'er's real grandmother? You said you wouldn't hold your granddaughter's hundred-day party, but other children have it, so why should our eldest daughter be left out?"
"My daughter-in-law doesn't have one."
Mrs. Ouyang really didn't know how to respond to the old man's quoting out of context. She had never said that she would not hold a hundred-day party for her granddaughter. She meant that Sister Wei's full-month party was grand and lively enough, so the hundred-day party should be smaller so that it would not seem ostentatious and was in line with their Ye family's usual low-key style.
Unexpectedly, in the old man's eyes, what she said about keeping a low profile meant not holding a hundred-day party for his granddaughter.
She is not the kind of person who favors boys over girls. She didn't even hold a hundred-day party for her granddaughter.
Hua Fushu didn't dare to speak. His father Ye Shiheng, the head of the family, was not at home, so the important matters in the family were decided by the old man, the patriarch.
At worst, she can just work harder and not confront the old man.
After the old general assigned the tasks, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left Feiyuan and began to prepare for Wei Jie'er's hundred-day banquet.
On this day, Side suddenly brought back a shocking news - Liu Feixu was dead!
"Feixu is dead?"
Ye Zelin was slightly stunned. This news was too sudden!
He straightened his expression and asked, "Si De, how did Fei Xu die?"
Side quickly recounted the story, "Half an hour ago, Mother Sai sent word that Miss Liu had suddenly died of an unknown cause. Mother Sai has already gone to the Tokyo government office to report the case. By now, the people from the Tokyo government office should have gone to the Xianhua Hall."
Ye Zelin suddenly stood up and walked out of the house. After taking a few steps, he suddenly thought of something and turned back to look at Hua Fushu.
Liu Feixu and Ye Zelin are not only close friends, but also comrades-in-arms and colleagues who help His Majesty accomplish his great cause. Liu Feixu is also a member of the Huaiqin Pavilion. Much of the information Ye Zelin needs comes from Liu Feixu.
Moreover, they are all proficient in music, and from a certain perspective, they can be considered music friends.
"I'll go with you." Ye Zelin wanted to go and see what was going on, and Hua Fushu was willing to go with him.
Ever since he knew that Liu Feixu and he were purely colleagues, Hua Fushu no longer regarded Liu Feixu as a love rival.
She was also curious about why Liu Feixu died suddenly.
The two took a car to the vicinity of Xianhua Club, but did not enter the Xianhua Club.
At this time, people from the Tokyo government office had already arrived at the Xianhua Hall. Two yamen runners were guarding the gate, not allowing people inside to enter or leave. The outside was also surrounded by people watching the excitement, and no one knew what was going on inside.
