After a long time, Huo Qijing came back and hugged her tightly without saying a word.
Yan Shiyue also hugged him tightly, buried her face in his arms, and tried to smell his scent. After a long time, she choked and said, "A Jing..."
She felt frustrated and panicked.
If someone attacked her, like the Third Prince did back then, she actually didn't hate him that much.
But if anyone attacked her children, even if he touched a hair on them, she would hate him so much that she wanted to cut him into pieces!
But she is the Queen Mother!
Regardless of her status as the empress dowager, she also has to consider Emperor Ming Yan!
She could only bear it and pretend nothing had happened!
But watching the child suffer day by day is really too painful...
The next day, Huo Qijing entered the palace and asked for leave from Emperor Ming Yan.
...
...
Now Zhao Kuangyin has been stationed there, so he doesn't have to keep an eye on it.
Emperor Ming Yan agreed.
Yan Shiyue asked someone to make a spinning top, and when Huo Qijing came back, she asked him to give it to the children.
It was at this time that Xiao Luzi brought Nanny Fu over.
After being beaten with a few boards, Aunt Fu knelt down with difficulty. Xiao Luzi came over and told her everything that had happened in detail.
Yan Shiyue nodded: "I understand, go back and tell mother not to worry."
She said to Nanny Fu again, "Thank you, Nanny." and asked someone to carry her away to treat her injuries.
When Huo Qijing came back, she told him how to play. Huo Qijing took off his outer robe and started playing. He started drawing the dices pretty much like the real person and could even draw several at the same time.
Dumplings and rice cakes surrounded him, clapping their hands happily.
The four little ones, led by their nanny, excitedly moved forward, calling out in baby voices, "Catch! Catch!"
Looking at Huo Qijing who was surrounded by children, Yan Shiyue let out a silent breath.
In fact, she was not worried about Linlang and the others, but for some reason, Huo Qijing was different when he came back. It was as if a large burden on her shoulders was suddenly lifted off her shoulders.
Very reassuring.
Qu Sinian and Zhou Jianwei asked to see him outside, so Yan Shiyue asked them to come in.
When Zhou Jianwei saw her, he knelt on the ground and said, "Prime Minister, this happened because of my negligence. I am guilty."
Yan Shiyue raised her eyebrows.
Qu Sinian indicated with his eyes that this play had to be done.
Yan Shiyue said, "Then kneel a little closer."
Zhou Jianwei knelt forward, and then Yan Shiyue began to ask him about his research on glasses in recent days.
Anyway, my reading glasses are almost useless now, so I’m working on my myopia glasses.
His idea was to try it out for a while, and then when there were no problems, select some people to learn how to test eyes and fit glasses. They could go to various prefectures to help people with eyesight testing and glasses fitting. The production could be placed in the capital first, and after these people had tested the products, they would send back the parameters, and then they would just send them back at regular intervals.
This idea seems feasible at the moment.
Qu Sinian also took the opportunity to tell the Empress Dowager about her glasses.
Yan Shiyue listened while looking at the child from time to time, and finally nodded: "You guys decide."
Actually, after getting the glasses, she wanted to get a microscope, but now she really wasn't in the mood.
Zhou Jianwei knelt for an hour and finished his official business. Then he was supported by Qu Sinian and limped out of the Duke's Mansion, thus resolving the incident.
As for the Queen Mother, after the matter of Nanny Fu was resolved, she felt relieved and her "illness" was cured.
She just wanted to ask Yan Shiyue to come to the palace, to express her filial piety and guilt, and then the two of them would hug each other and cry, and only then would the matter be considered complete.
She hinted to the queen.
The Queen took over the conversation. She smiled bitterly and said, "Mother, you don't know that Yue'er, Ajing, and the two children are all injured or sick and are all taking medicine."
Her eyes were red. "When Huo Qijing came back, his injuries had not healed yet, so he came to ask for leave from the emperor. Such a heroic man actually shed tears in front of the emperor, saying that Yue'er had become too thin, and the child was also very thin."
No matter what she said was true or false, the empress dowager could not force her to enter the palace.
But the Queen Mother was no longer happy.
It was like, "I am the elder, I have already taken a few steps back, and now the real murderer has been found and the ladder has been handed over, what else can you, a junior, do?" So she sent Shou Mama with a bunch of medicinal herbs to "visit" him.
Yan Shiyue couldn't miss it.
And she was really too thin, and the baggy jacket she wore made her face look even thinner and pale, as if she were sick.
In fact, even if her expression remained unchanged, Nanny Shou would never dare to offend the Queen and her and would not expose her. What's more, this meeting really scared her.
But she still forced herself to ask, "I wonder if Aunt Fu is okay?"
Yan Shiyue ignored her words and asked coldly: "Do you have anything else to do?"
At this time, it was indeed inappropriate to ask a servant. Nanny Shou did not dare to say more and had to leave.
Nanny Shou went back and told the Empress Dowager.
The Queen Mother wept and said, "This child is busy with business every day and never at home. How can she go through these things... She must be worried and distressed. This is a disease she has brought upon herself! We should find some experienced maids to take care of her."
When Shou Ma heard this, she was shocked and said anxiously, "Her Majesty the Queen Mother, please be kind! But there are already four maids assigned by the Queen Mother to your side, and there are also those assigned by Linlang and the Emperor. You don't need to assign more. Otherwise, the Duke's Mansion is in a state of chaos, and if you go there suddenly, you won't be familiar with everywhere, and I'm afraid it will only cause more trouble."
The Queen Mother sighed, "That's right. I just feel sorry for this child."
Shou Ma advised, "You don't have to think too much. Although Her Highness is called the Blessed Lady, she is a descendant of a royal family. When she was young, she was also a wanderer among the people and suffered a lot... Isn't it that now she has finally found happiness after all the suffering? The two young masters must have been destined to have this disaster. If they can get through it, they will have good fortune in the future!"
She had just given her advice casually, but the Queen Mother nodded repeatedly: "You are right! So right! Fu Yan is the Queen Mother of Fortune, didn't she also face many disasters when she was young?! Her child must have taken after her, and must have suffered this disaster in his fate! That's the truth!"
Even Nanny Shou was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.
A day later, the Queen Mother summoned the wife of Marquis Nan'an into the palace again.
The next day, the wife of Marquis Nan'an came to the Duke's Mansion to visit Yan Shiyue.
Although many people came to visit these days, except for family members, they were all turned away, and the wife of Marquis Nan'an was no exception.
The wife of the Marquis of Nan'an showed the Queen Mother's signboard and was then called in.
When Yan Shiyue heard that it was the Queen Mother's men again, he became extremely angry.
This damn old woman is never going to stop, is she? Does she really think people are fools? Can you just stop and be quiet! After hurting people, she still has to mess up the harmony between the grandparents and grandchildren. You are really spoiled!
Yan Shiyue was so angry that he gritted his teeth for a long time, and told himself a hundred times in his heart that this was for Emperor Ming Yan, so he came out.
