Chapter 289 Yun Qiao is eager to protect her daughter
Since waking up from the dream, Yun Qiao has always wanted to see Nian Nian, but she didn't see Chen Jingyan bringing the child.
Xiaotao is not here either.
She had just given birth, so naturally she was surrounded by maids and old women. When she learned that Nian Nian had been found after she went missing, she could no longer sit still.
"Such a big thing happened at home, and you dared to hide it from me."
"Your Highness, the Marquis forbade you to tell me. He said you just gave birth and needed to rest."
She did get a good rest, but when she woke up, her daughter was almost lost.
Just as Yun Qiao was walking out, she heard Chen Jingyan's footsteps outside.
His voice followed closely, "Didn't I tell you to have a good rest?"
"How can I rest well? What happened to Nian Nian?" Yun Qiao asked anxiously.
Chen Jingyan walked closer, looked at Yun Qiao, and whispered, "The child is fine. Don't worry. Take good care of yourself after giving birth. You came out right after giving birth. Do you want to lose your health?"
He held Yun Qiao's arm and was about to walk into the house.
Yun Qiao was reluctant, "Chen Jingyan, tell me the truth, what happened to Nian Nian? Don't lie to me, you know my temper."
Chen Jingyan naturally didn't want to hide it, and he knew that he couldn't hide it, but Yun Qiao had just given birth to a child, and Nian Nian had just been found. After Nian Nian was found, she didn't let anyone else get close to her. Except for Yun Qiao, Xiao Tao and the doctor, no one else really knew what Nian Nian's condition was.
"Chen Jingyan..."
Hearing Yun Qiao say this, Chen Jingyan sighed and then said, "It seems like I was too smart before, but suddenly I became a little stupid. I only remember my mother, and I can't even remember my father and my own name."
"The doctor said she was mentally unstable."
Yun Qiao thought of a word at that time: mentally retarded.
This might be just a curse word under normal circumstances, but now, it happened to her daughter. Could it really be because of her time travel?
"Bring the child here."
If it was really fate, she thought, she hoped that after she died, her daughter would be able to regain her normal sanity.
Chen Jingyan nodded, and he went to bring Nian Nian over personally.
The little girl's eyes were still dull and she looked silly. Yun Qiao was unable to see into her heart. It seemed as if her heart was blocked by something.
Seeing Nian Nian like this, Yun Qiao felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Nian Nian, how did it become like this?"
She couldn't help but shed tears, but Nian Nian reached out her little hand to wipe away her tears and put them in her mouth.
“It’s not tasty…”
"Nian Nian, do you still remember your mother? Is she your mother?"
There were only three of them left in the house. The fourth child had been carried out. Yun Qiao even wondered if Nian Nian was involved because of the fourth child's arrival.
She didn't want to blame the child, but the peace in her heart had long been lost. When Nian Nian was willing to sacrifice herself for her, she could no longer help but love the child.
Even if she is a fool, even if she remains foolish her whole life, Yun Qiao is willing to serve her.
"Don't be afraid, mother is here for you."
Yun Qiao protected Nian Nian and played with her for a while. She said she was hungry and wanted to eat.
Her mind is immature, like a two or three-year-old child. She understands what you say, but there are many things she cannot do on her own. She will tell you when she is hungry and tired, but there are some things she cannot express clearly.
Letting Xiaotao take Nian Nian to eat, Chen Jingyan looked at Yun Qiao whose face had become extremely ugly.
"Mrs. Qiao..."
Knowing that Chen Jingyan was worried about her, Yun Qiao smiled at him, but it was a forced smile.
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
"How's the child? I haven't taken a good look at him since he was born. I think it's all due to him. I might be partial to Nian Nian more in the future. I have three sons, so please take better care of them."
"I remember them all."
"You've done very well." Chen Jingyan touched Yun Qiao's face and said softly, "Things are pressing in Jingdu City. They've been forcing me to go back. Now that you've given birth, I have no excuse not to go."
"Mother Qiao, I'm going to put you in an awkward position again this time."
Yun Qiao shook her head slightly, "No problem, go ahead and do your work."
I still let the wet nurse bring the little one over. Perhaps because he knew his situation, the little one was very well behaved and didn't cry at all. At first he was resistant to breastfeeding, but later he was very hungry and started to eat.
Yun Qiao instructed her maid Baihe to tell the cook in the kitchen to make sure the wet nurse who was feeding the baby was well fed and well drunk.
Years ago, Chen Jingyan went to Kyoto.
He rode away at full speed, but when he arrived in Kyoto, before he could meet Emperor Showa, the Emperor vomited blood and died. The prince cried bitterly, and several princes of the Great Zhou were eyeing the throne.
It was Empress Dowager Chen who came forward and personally invited Chen Jingyan.
These princes have finally settled down.
Empress Dowager Chen privately promised Chen Jingyan that she would give him full military authority over the two cities of Mobei and Nancheng, and would rebuild the marquis's mansion. Princess Huayang Yunqiao was also granted the status of a first-class imperial lady.
Empress Dowager Chen made it clear that when the prince ascended the throne, he would be in charge of the civil officials.
As for the dispatch of military generals, it was fully entrusted to Chen Jingyan.
Chen Jingyan asked the empress dowager if she had told the prince about this matter.
The prince felt aggrieved, but he had to listen.
After all, he had experience of what his father had done.
The prince agreed.
Chen Jingyan also agreed and supported the prince as emperor.
