Shen Jia'an shook his head in disagreement, saying, "Yuzhen is still young, why are you in such a hurry!"
Madam Shen didn't want to talk to him anymore. He was still too young. He was already quite old. They should meet, go through the proper etiquette, and finally settle down. By then, their daughter would be of marriageable age.
"Tell me what you think of You Qing!"
"Young Master You's character and abilities are naturally beyond question."
"Still calling him 'Little Brother You,'"
"Okay, okay, I won't call anymore."
"Just tell me, would you agree if You Qing became your son-in-law?"
Shen Jia'an naturally admired You Qing very much, and he was certainly qualified to be a son-in-law. He was able to turn the whole of Yunnan upside down with his own strength, and he was more capable than You Qing.
However, he added, "While he himself is fine, his age might be inappropriate!"
Youqing was already in her early twenties, almost ten years younger than Yuzhen.
"Older men tend to be more caring."
The main reason is that Youqing doesn't look his age; he looks like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man. It would be such a pity to miss out on him.
In Sanbo County, Madam Shen didn't have many suitors. Those her daughter was the same age as, had some ability but some flaws in character, and she couldn't bear to let her daughter marry someone who wasn't capable. She was happy married to Shen Jia'an, and she couldn't bear to let her daughter marry someone else and suffer.
Youqing is perfect in every way – looks, ability, character. She has no in-laws and has never been married before. She can take charge of the household after marriage. She is also not much older than you. In ancient times, a ten-year age difference between men and women was not a problem.
Upon hearing this, Shen Jia'an fell into deep thought. Now that you mention it, it's not entirely impossible.
No: "You Qing is good in every way, but she is already over twenty. Yu Zhen will not be of marriageable age for several more years. This won't do. It's delaying her too much."
Once an ordinary man has established a family business, he will inevitably start a family next, and his daughter can't wait that long.
Madam Shen glanced at him and said, "How do you know this matter if you don't go and ask? I think You Qing is a good one. Our Yu Zhen may not be the best in Sanbo County, but she is a pretty good girl. It's not impossible for him to wait two or three more years."
Shen Jia'an fell silent, and began to consider whether this was possible.
He truly values You Qing, and he would be more than happy if he could become his son-in-law.
"I'll ask later, okay? It's getting late, I should go to sleep."
Madam Shen then smiled and said, "That's more like it."
It was already late, and after discussing their children, the Shen couple went to sleep.
Emperor Kangxi, who was in the capital, had been feeling unwell lately. One night, he suddenly woke up, rubbed his head, and asked, "Liang Jiugong, where is he?"
Liang Jiugong gently woke up from his sleep and went into the room.
"Your Majesty, this servant is here."
"I have a headache. Summon the imperial physician."
"yes."
In the dead of night, the imperial physician cautiously examined Emperor Kangxi's pulse, but found nothing wrong.
That's strange. Kangxi's headache didn't seem fake either, as there was sweat on his forehead!
In the end, the imperial physicians all knelt on the ground, saying that Kangxi was fine.
As dawn approached, Kangxi finally felt his headache subside.
Before they could even rest, it was time to go to court again.
After a busy half-day, I was dizzy and lightheaded. I took a two-hour nap during my lunch break, and then had dinner right after waking up.
That evening, Kangxi's headache started again.
This continued for three days, and everyone serving in front of the Emperor in the Qianqing Palace was terrified.
Meanwhile, in Yunnan, the system excitedly told Youqing, "Because the yang energy is very strong, the system has recently started to repair itself automatically."
The system was also brand new. Youqing was the first host it encountered. It was crippled not long after it was manufactured, and it didn't even know much about its own repair function.
Only then did I realize that having enough Yang energy can repair the system.
The system was overjoyed, as it could be completely restored to factory settings. Who would want to live with a half-crippled system for the rest of their life?
Youqing was also happy, but not as excited as the system. The system's functions were already sufficient for Youqing's needs, so she was more happy for the system.
In contrast to the joy here, in the capital, Emperor Kangxi was causing quite a stir due to a headache that seemed to have no apparent reason.
Because of a headache, the imperial physicians could not diagnose the illness. Kangxi was able to handle state affairs on the first day, but he could not hold on much longer on the second day.
After resting for several days, the news reached the Empress Dowager, who was recuperating in Cining Palace, as well as her, as she was also ill!
Once the Empress Dowager found out, she knew almost everything.
This will certainly make things lively in both the imperial court and the harem.
Inside Yuqing Palace, Suo'etu was allowed to enter again.
"Your Highness, what exactly is going on with His Majesty this time?"
News from the Qianqing Palace was difficult to obtain, and even the Crown Prince didn't know much about it.
"I've only heard that Father Emperor has been suffering from headaches all day long, and the imperial physicians have made several diagnoses but haven't been able to find anything wrong with him."
"Does the Crown Prince think that His Majesty's condition will affect the administration of state affairs?"
If it affects the government, either the headache will never be cured and will continue, or it will lead to death.
"What do you mean by that?" Kangxi was his own father, and at this time the Crown Prince still had fatherly affection for Kangxi.
Soetu said calmly, “Your Highness, please don’t be angry. This servant is not just stating the facts. This servant also hopes that His Majesty can be safe and sound, but the fact is that His Majesty’s condition is not optimistic. We can wait a day or two for the affairs of the court, but what about ten days or half a month? There must be a plan.”
The crown prince's expression relaxed somewhat, because what Suo'etu said was true.
