Chapter 211 Let the Emperor Have Another Son
"Yu'er, father is in good health, no need to check."
"I want to see it." Xiao Hongyu held Xiao Yanli's hand tightly and said to Song Yu, "Let my father take a look and prescribe some prescriptions to nourish the body and prolong life."
Song Yu glanced at Xiao Yanli.
Xiao Yanli nodded: "Then let me see it."
He also wants to watch Yu'er grow up and protect him longer.
Song Yu immediately took the patient's pulse and withdrew his hand after a while.
Xiao Hongyu couldn't wait to ask, "How is Father's health?"
"Your Majesty is in good health, but he is having trouble falling asleep."
Xiao Yanli smiled and said, "That's right, but it's not a big deal."
"Your Majesty, I will prescribe a recipe for a good night's sleep and good health. Please do not sit at your desk for long periods of time handling state affairs, and do not stay up late. You must go to bed at 4:45 PM at the latest."
"Father." Xiao Hongyu hugged Xiao Yanli's arm tightly and looked up at him. "Sister Song has said so. You must take it seriously and stop staying up late. If you can't finish the memorials, push them to the next day. Otherwise, if Father stays up late in the future, I won't sleep either."
Xiao Yanli lovingly touched Xiao Hongyu'er's head: "Okay, okay, father won't stay up late, go to bed early and get up early."
Song Yu quickly wrote a prescription and handed it to Wang Gui, "Your Majesty, I will review the case for you and His Highness in seven days."
"Okay, okay, reward!"
Soon, palace servants came in with three trays and handed them to Song Yu.
On it were placed five large gold bars, ten large silver ingots, three white jade hairpins with kingfisher feathers and a set of imperial silver needles.
Song Yu was slightly surprised. She had no way to cure the little prince's illness, yet the emperor gave her such a huge reward.
Especially the three exquisitely crafted hairpins, which are obviously worth a lot of money at first glance.
"Miss Song." Wang Gui spoke quickly and then gave her a warning look.
Song Yu hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty."
"Do you like it?"
Song Yu: "...I like it."
Seeing the three sisters feeling uncomfortable, Xiao Yanli said, "Miss Song, Master Jiang is waiting in the imperial study. Go find him."
Song Yu/Jiang Shiyun/Cheng Qingmeng: "I will take my leave."
Wang Gui hurriedly led the three sisters out of Weiyang Palace with the rewards.
Inside the hall, Xiao Hongyu had already fallen asleep on the couch.
Concubine Qing gave the peony fruit cake made by Song Yu to Xiao Yanli.
"This is the peony fruit cake made by Miss Song. It has no sugar. Yu'er loves it. Your Majesty, please try it."
Xiao Yanli swallowed it in three mouthfuls. "Jiang Yunwan has taught Song Yu well, far beyond the level of the imperial chef. She's smart enough to even use cheese as a sugar substitute."
Concubine Qing asked, "Your Majesty, have you seen Song Yu's appearance clearly?"
Xiao Yanli nodded, "I'm not wrong. Song Yu should be Du Henian's daughter. Jiang Yunwan hasn't had her own children in all these years. Either Jiang Yunwan fell off the cliff and injured herself, or Song Mingen is infertile. My intuition suggests the former. So it seems Song Mingen is a good person. Although Old Jiang didn't say it, Jiang Yunwan must have her own children by now."
Concubine Qing was surprised, "How can you say that?"
"From the first sight, I felt that Song Yu was very filial. She knows medicine. She must have been taking care of her mother over the years. She looks like a Du family member. Now that she's not wearing a mask, she's probably not afraid of being recognized by the Du family. The facial injury she said was probably a lie. Jiang Yunwan didn't want her family to worry about her when she first returned to the capital, so she made Song Yu wear a mask. Now that Madam Jiang is about to regain her sight, she has another child, so there's no need to hide it."
Imperial Concubine Qing frowned slightly. "Why did Jiang Yunwan pick up the Du family's child and raise her? I remember Du Zhihuan was already full-term when she was brought back. Elder Jiang won't say anything... Your Majesty, you should send someone to investigate. If the two children are sisters, it's fine. If not, then Du Zhihuan isn't of the Du family's bloodline. She was also engaged to Xiao Chengqian since childhood. Should the engagement between the two families be reversed or not?"
Xiao Yanli recalled Jiang Youya's smile in the imperial study. "I will arrange for someone to investigate thoroughly. Just wait, the Du family will take action soon."
After leaving the palace, Jiang Youya asked, "Sister Yu, do you have any way to take care of the little prince's health?"
Song Yu shook his head regretfully. "The little prince's illness cannot be cured with my skills. He can only rest."
Jiang Youya looked helpless, thinking that Xiao Chengqian was indeed better than his father, and that Dayuan would be well governed in his hands in the future.
But he still felt a little regretful, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Can the little prince grow up safely, get married, and have children?"
"As long as he is carefully cared for, the little prince will surely grow up safely, marry, and have children."
Jiang Youya was not relieved after hearing this. As long as the little prince's health was not completely restored, there would always be problems.
After returning to the Jiang Mansion, Cheng Qingmeng and Jiang Shiyun went directly to Song Yu's room.
Cheng Qingmeng said: "Cousin, I don't believe you can't cure the little prince's illness!"
Jiang Shiyun also said: "I don't believe it either! Although the little prince can make his body stronger than it is now, he is still weaker than ordinary people. There are many things he can't do."
Song Yu waved her hand. "I really have no choice. I hope more than you do that the little prince can get better. I hope that the little prince can grow up safely and healthily, and give birth to a healthy and strong little prince. If this happens, Du Zhihuan will have no chance of becoming the queen."
"Okay, let's not think about this anymore. Here, each of you take one." Song Yu took the three hairpins that were awarded.
A moment ago, Cheng Qingmeng and Jiang Shiyun looked unhappy, but now their eyes lit up as they looked at the hairpin.
Cheng Qingmeng smiled and said, "Are you really giving us one each?"
"Of course, take it."
"Thank you, cousin. We love you."
The two of them hugged Song Yu excitedly, and each of them happily left Furong Garden holding a hairpin.
"Miss, you really have no solution?" Bai Lan said as she put the reward into the box, "The note left by the cave master should have some solution, right?"
"If the cave master were still alive, he might be able to cure the little prince. Do you think I'd dare to cut open the little prince's heart with a knife just because I've read the notes and medical books he left behind?"
"What?" Bai Lan was shocked. "This... treatment is too horrific. It's even more dangerous than cutting Miss Gu. If you make a mistake, you could be beheaded."
"So, don't do anything you're not sure of! The cave master's medical book must be kept away and not revealed."
"Don't worry, Miss. I'm going to add someone soon. The people around Du Zhihuan look very powerful. You are the real daughter of the Marquis' Mansion. You must not lose to Du Zhihuan in terms of momentum."
Song Yu nodded, "Okay, let's go to the human traffickers this afternoon."
Song Yu went to the main house of Furong Garden.
At this time, Song Mingen was sitting at the desk in front of the bed, reading a book, and from time to time he turned his head to look at Jiang Yunwan who was cutting clothes at the table.
Jiang Yunwan glared at him and said, "Concentrate on your studies and don't be distracted."
"Yes, ma'am." Song Mingen quickly turned her head and began to read the book carefully.
Song Yu watched this scene at the door and couldn't bear to go in and disturb them. He turned around and was about to leave, but was called in by Jiang Yunwan.
"Sister Yu, can the little prince recover?"
"It can't be cured completely. Now we can only make the little prince strong and take good care of him as he grows up. He will have no problem getting married and having children."
Song Mingen whispered, "You can recuperate the emperor and help him have another son."
Song Yu: ...
She really hadn't thought about it.
"...I did take the Emperor's pulse and prescribed a prescription for good sleep and nourishment. I'll take his pulse again during the follow-up examination. By the way, I'm going out of the palace this afternoon to select a few personal maids."
