I didn't dare tell the old princess that her dear grandson is still seasick and hasn't recovered yet.
Xu Heming was even more ashamed to tell the old princess that he also suffered from seasickness.
"I'm fine. It's good that you're back. Is Zhiwei back too?" The old princess was in a better mood when she heard that Xu Qingshi had returned, and then she thought of Li Zhiwei and asked casually.
Thinking to himself that his health was not good, it seemed that he should put the marriage of the two generals on the agenda as soon as possible.
Perhaps she will even see Xu Heming's second child born.
Otherwise, if I really leave, their marriage will be delayed for several more years.
She felt a little guilty; with her gone, the Prince's mansion would only be proper if there was a mistress.
Otherwise, given how busy his son is, his grandson would probably suffer a great loss in the household.
“Mother, Zhiwei is back. However, Madam Li came to the capital with us this time. Madam Li is not in good health. After settling Madam Li in, Zhiwei came to see you.” Xu Heming thought that the old princess was unhappy that Li Zhiwei had not come to see her, so he quickly spoke up to explain on Li Zhiwei’s behalf.
"Madam Li has also come to the capital? That's wonderful." The old princess thought to herself, with Madam Li here, it seems that the marriage between her son and Li Zhiwei can be brought up naturally.
However, thinking of Madam Li's visit, she should have gone to visit Madam Li, but now she was seriously ill in bed.
I wonder if Madam Li will blame me.
"Alas, my health is failing me. Logically, now that Madam Li has come to the capital, we should pay her a visit." The old princess sighed, expressing her concerns.
“Mother, don’t worry. Madam Li probably doesn’t have the energy to receive you right now. Why don’t you both take care of yourselves first?” Xu Heming quickly said.
In fact, Li Zhiwei originally wanted to come along to visit the old princess, but he didn't know what the situation was like at the palace, and he didn't dare to let Li Zhiwei go back to the palace to take the risk.
"Alright." The old princess had been talking for a while and was getting a little tired.
Dr. Zhang had been standing silently to the side the whole time.
“Mother, I still have some things to take care of. You should rest first. I’ll come see you later.” Xu Heming stood up and gestured for Steward Liu and Doctor Zhang to come out with him.
After talking for a while, the old princess also felt a little tired.
"I'm getting old after all," the old princess sighed, blaming herself for being so useless.
"Your Highness, you're still in good health. The Prince just mentioned that Madam Li has also come to the capital. I suppose it's time to set a date for the Prince and Your Highness's marriage. This is something we'll all need your help with," Granny Luo quickly reassured her.
They were afraid that the old princess would become depressed because of this.
After leaving Ci'an Hall, Xu Heming looked at Doctor Zhang beside him and asked, "How is the old princess's health?"
"Your Highness, the old princess's health has been damaged by this poisoning, and she needs to recuperate for some time," Doctor Zhang quickly replied.
"Take good care of the old princess and let her rest. If she needs anything, just go to the storeroom and get it." Xu Heming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that she was alright.
"Yes! The fact that the old princess was able to recover from the poison so quickly is largely thanks to Steward Liu for giving her the antidote pills in time. If it had been a quarter of an hour later, the old princess would probably be in grave danger." Doctor Zhang said, adding a good word for Liu Ming.
After all, at the time, Zheng Qiaoshu accused Steward Liu of poisoning the old princess.
Upon hearing Dr. Zhang's words, Liu Ming gave him a grateful look.
At the time, the situation was urgent, and he was saving the old princess without thinking too much.
However, Liu Ming was still grateful that Dr. Zhang would speak up for him.
Xu Heming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the old princess was alright. However, upon hearing that it was fortunate that Steward Liu had given her the antidote in time, he said to Steward Liu, "You saved the old princess, you will be richly rewarded, and the royal palace will remember your kindness."
"Master Wan, this old servant saved the old princess because Lord Li saw that she was poisoned. I dare not take credit for this," Liu Ming quickly said.
