When Zhongyong Hou's heart was in his throat, Xie Tingzhou finally spoke, "There's nothing seriously wrong."
Just as the Marquis of Zhongyong was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard him add, "However, he is getting old and is a bit weak."
Xie Tingzhou took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket and handed it to him, saying, "I personally made this for you; it's an elixir of eternal youth. No need to thank me."
"You little rascal, you have no manners."
The two had been bickering for years, and Zhong Yonghou, in a fit of anger, disregarded Xie Tingzhou's identity, took the porcelain bottle, and patted him hard on the shoulder.
Only after taking the picture did he realize that this was not the border, and the person was no longer his son. He scratched his head and said, "Hehe, Your Highness, I got carried away for a moment. Please forgive me."
Xie Tingzhou didn't like to put on airs of a crown prince in front of him, so he waved his hand.
“You have no problem with that, the problem must lie with Madam Cui.”
I noticed she wasn't feeling well today. Why don't you go see her yourself tomorrow and ask Doctor Su to treat her?"
Based on observation, listening, questioning, and palpation, it was determined that Madam Cui's appearance indicated depletion of qi and blood, making it difficult for her to conceive without proper care.
If Su Luoqing wants to annul the engagement, the Li family will definitely be in trouble. With the Marquis of Zhongyong backing her up, things will go much more smoothly.
After returning to the capital, Marquis Zhongyong inquired about the events of the day, understood his intentions, and nodded, saying, "Alright, I will personally go to the Su residence tomorrow."
Thinking of Madam Cui's appearance, Xie Tingzhou added, "She was murdered right after the child was born. Anyone would feel resentful in that situation."
She went to great lengths to enter the Marquis's household because of her child, but the child is long gone, and we've kept it from her. Please be patient with her.
Cui Yihuan is kind-hearted; someone with a narrow mind would probably have sought revenge. It is precisely because she did not retaliate that she torments herself.
She was her friend's mother, and Tse Ting-chou regarded her as an elder, feeling guilty and heartbroken.
Hearing what Ye Zhen and Cui Yihuan were saying, he knew that Cui Yihuan was suffering from a heart condition.
This illness requires more care and companionship to help her gradually recover.
Marquis Zhongyong nodded earnestly, "This old minister understands, thank you for your care, Your Highness."
He felt a little wronged. He had been patient and tolerant enough with Cui Yihuan, but she ignored him.
It's all my own doing; I can only pay for it slowly.
Seeing that he had taken it to heart, Xie Tingzhou began to adopt the airs of a prince, "Alright, if there's nothing else, you may leave."
He saw his true self.
Marquis Zhongyong almost instinctively bowed and stepped back.
It took him a few steps to realize that Xie Tingzhou was deliberately trying to get rid of him. But when he turned around, he saw a blur running towards Ye Zhen's back window.
Marquis Zhongyong smiled.
Xie Tingzhou, familiar with the place, climbed through the window and entered Ye Zhen's room.
Ye Zhen was engrossed in flipping through a book, searching for something.
Xie Tingzhou walked over and saw that it was a medical book. He guessed that Ye Zhen was doing it for Cui Yihuan. "I have already told the old man to find Doctor Su to help Madam Cui get better."
Additionally, you could take her to a charity event so she can interact more with the children. Keeping her busy and less preoccupied will help her condition improve.
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen put down his medical book. "Alright, after I'm done with these busy days, I'll accompany her for a walk outside the city..."
After the two finished discussing Cui Yihuan's matter, Xie Tingzhou said, "The Li family sent someone to Shuanzi's house."
"Did Xie Jinyao tell Li Heng the secret?"
Xie Tingzhou nodded. "With her brains, she still wants to curry favor with Li Heng. It's only a matter of time before he finds out."
"Fortunately, you were clever enough to let Shuanzi's mother pretend to be sick, and when Shuanzi went into the mountains to hunt, you threw Kang Le, who was disguised as Shuanzi, into the mountains, thus fooling the villagers."
Ye Zhen sighed, "Otherwise, two more innocent lives will be lost because of Xie Jinyao."
Li Heng will not let that mother and child get away with it.
Xie Tingzhou had anticipated this situation and had arranged for the mother and child to go to the border long ago.
In this way, they managed to deceive Li Heng and continue to extract information from Xie Jinyao.
No, now there's also Li Heng.
As long as they keep a close eye on Li Heng's movements, they can deduce a lot of things.
Xie Tingzhou then recounted the story of the Prince of Yun.
Ye Zhen was also shocked.
Even if this Cloud King isn't a masked man, there's still something wrong with him.
"Did you manage to fool them with your performance with Su Yanwan today?"
When this was mentioned, Tse Ting-chou became dejected.
He rested his head on Ye Zhen's shoulder and said with a wronged expression, "I feel like I'm not clean anymore."
I learned this from Chen Banjun.
After Chen Banjun brought Qin Xue back to the palace, he knelt before his father and cried for a long time, saying things like he was dirty and disgusted with himself.
The emperor was so moved that he almost cried, praising Chen Banjun for his loyalty and righteousness, and bestowing upon him many gifts.
Xie Tingzhou learned a trick from the side and now plans to put it to use.
"She smelled bad, so I used silver needles to seal her sense of smell, and now my nose is very uncomfortable."
After being hit by Madam Cui, she snuggled into my arms. I used all the self-control I had in my life to resist pushing her away. However, I didn't let her succeed; I only held her arm, through her sleeve, but I still got dirty.
He rubbed his head against Ye Zhen's neck. "I've washed it several times, but I can still smell her scent. It's awful."
His voice was nasal and choked with sobs.
Ye Zhen felt a pang of sympathy at first, but then realized that this person had come to seek praise and comfort.
Thinking of the dignified Crown Prince behaving like this in front of her, Ye Zhen found it amusing and ruffled his hair with her hand. "Then what can I do for you?"
Xie Tingzhou tentatively asked, "A kiss?"
Ye Zhen, “…”
This guy's skin is getting thicker and thicker.
She pointed towards the door and ordered, "Yinyue, bring me water; I want to take a bath."
