"Your Majesty, why don't you keep the Emperor here?" Yuan'er asked anxiously for her mistress.
When the concubines in the detached palace saw the emperor approaching, they were eager to use every trick in the book to keep him there.
The Empress herself seemed to be hoping the Emperor would leave soon, even drinking her medicine, which she usually hated, very quickly.
If things continue like this, when other concubines give birth to the eldest prince, or when more concubines enter the palace, the concubines will have an even harder time in the palace.
Xu Mama came over and helped Xu Wanying up, "Alright, Yuan'er, you know Her Majesty's temper. The Emperor can go wherever he wants. It's good for Her Majesty to have some peace and quiet."
"Granny, look at Consort Chun, she practically hogs the Emperor every day." Yuan'er pouted, feeling sorry for the Consort.
In terms of appearance and knowledge, how could my own empress be inferior to that so-called princess of the Northern Li Kingdom? The emperor is truly blind.
"Alright, Yuan'er, your words will only bring trouble. If you keep talking nonsense, you're not allowed to follow me anymore," Xu Wanying said, trying to stop her.
Seeing that the Empress was unhappy, Yuan'er dared not say anything more and lowered her head, holding her breath.
Xiao Chenyi looked preoccupied as soon as he came out of Kunning Palace. Li Yuansheng noticed this and whispered, "Your Majesty, why don't you go to Yaohua Palace for a while?"
The Emperor's mood would improve every time he left Yaohua Palace.
Xiao Chenyi shook his head: "Let's go back to the Imperial Study."
"Yes. Prepare to proceed to the Imperial Study."
When Xiao Chen heard Yuan'er say that the imperial physician had changed the prescription, he understood that his mother had intervened.
He could say nothing, nor was he able to stop it all.
He had no choice but to bury his head in the sand and didn't step into the inner palace for nearly a month. Even when Consort Chun sent people to invite him over many times, and even danced in the wind in the Imperial Garden, she still couldn't pull Xiao Chenyi to Yaohua Palace.
More than a month has passed, and Xiao Yanchu has basically recovered and has returned to the Regent's Palace.
The four masters, unable to adapt to life in the capital, returned to Yanyang.
Grandpa Xiao learned the gist of the matter from Wang Xing and knew that Jin Ya was alright, so he didn't ask any more questions.
After Madam Su made it clear that daughters of the Su family must be the principal wife and that the husband's family must not take concubines, the Su family lived in peace for a period of time.
But recently, Madam Su has become busy again, busy dealing with the ladies of prominent families.
These ladies weren't here to propose marriage to Su Ruojin this time; they were here for the five sons of the Su family.
The rule that daughters of the Su family must be the principal wife and husbands are not allowed to take concubines scared away many potential partners, but the fact that sons of the Su family do not take concubines attracted countless daughters of prominent families.
In any family that truly cherishes its daughter, who wouldn't want her to not have to share her husband with other women?
Moreover, the five sons of the Su family are all outstanding individuals in terms of appearance, character, and achievements. Marrying one of them would allow one to establish a connection with the Su family, making them highly sought-after by ladies of prominent families in the capital.
Previously, the five sons of the Su family swore that they would not find their youngest sister and would not marry before they turned thirty.
The Su family always kept their word. All the prominent families in the capital with women of marriageable age chose to give up on the Su family, since no family wanted their daughters to become old maids because of the five sons of the Su family.
Now that the eldest daughter of the Su family has been found, the five sons of the Su family can naturally get married at any time, and many more people will come to their door.
Dealing with marriage proposals for so long has exhausted Madam Su.
Su Ruojin felt sorry for her mother, "Mother, don't work too hard. Let your brothers worry about their marriages themselves."
In Su Ruojin's opinion, her brothers should marry the women they love; there's no need for their mother to worry about it.
Madam Su laughed and said, "You little girl, marriage has always been decided by parents and arranged by matchmakers. How can I, as your mother, not keep an eye on your brothers?"
