The delicate little cabbage was pushed by the old emperor

Now the doubts in Shen Lebai's heart were finally solved. He seemed to be suddenly enlightened. It turned out that there was a trace of everything.

I wanted to scold her and teach her a lesson, as she was too bold this time. But from the perspective of her younger sister, she was a victim from the very beginning.

Human hearts are so sinister that it's hard to guard against them. If I have to blame anyone, I can only blame myself for not protecting her well and letting others take advantage of me.

Thinking of this, Shen Lebai began to become dissatisfied with the emperor again. He was also the instigator of this. If it weren't for the fact that there were so many women in the emperor's harem, there wouldn't have been so much trouble.

Shen Leyan rarely saw her brother so angry, but it was because he cared about her that he was so angry, so she had to comfort him carefully.

She told some interesting things to slowly dispel her brother's anger, and then slowly brought out some of the things the emperor had done for her.

Shen Lebai was gradually persuaded and suddenly felt that it made some sense, but he still wondered what the emperor's intention was.

"The current situation in the court is almost entirely controlled by the Crown Prince. The Emperor has delegated a lot of power, and the Lu family behind the Crown Prince, with the support of the Shangguan family, is even more arbitrary and tyrannical."

Shen Leyan said with a worried look on her face, "Then Daddy's current situation must be very difficult."

"It's more than just difficult. Lord Shangguan has always been against my father, and now he's taking the opportunity to suppress us. However, the Emperor hasn't abdicated the throne to the Crown Prince yet, so they won't do anything too drastic."

"However, they can't do anything to us, so you don't have to worry. I think my father is very open-minded. Just bear with it for now."

"The tree wants to be still, but the wind does not stop. In some cases, the more you give in, the more the other party will push you further."

Shen Lebai was a little surprised that his sister could say such words. It seemed that she had experienced a lot recently and she had indeed grown up.

"You are right. Forbearance is only temporary. However, Daddy still doesn't understand the Emperor's intention. I also think that the Emperor's actions are a bit unbelievable."

"My sister thinks that perhaps the Emperor is doing this to delegate power first, so that he can catch them all in one fell swoop when they become too proud of themselves."

He suddenly thought about it and felt that it made a lot of sense. He excitedly said, "But did the emperor tell my sister?"

Shen Leyan shook her head and explained, "The Emperor didn't tell me his plan. This is just my guess. I'm giving my brother some hints so he can make plans in advance."

"What my sister said makes sense. The emperor must have his own plans. We can't act rashly now. We just need to wait for the right opportunity."

Shen Lebai had great respect and admiration for the wise and brave Emperor Yong'an. He became famous at a young age and was both talented in literature and martial arts. How could he be forced by the Lu family to abdicate to the third prince?

But... alas, when it comes to this matter concerning his sister, even if he is the emperor he cannot back down, Shen Lebai thought so, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face so quickly.

"By the way, brother, how many days will it take for the miracle doctor to arrive in Beijing?"

"If you hadn't asked me, I would have almost forgotten. According to the time, it should be within the next two days, no later than the day after tomorrow."

Shen Leyan started teasing him again, "How could you forget such an important matter, brother? If you delay, Sister Shangguan will be worried for another day."

"How dare you say that? I'm stuck in your own affairs. I came here to tell you."

Shen Leyan knew she was in the wrong, so she didn't allow him to argue and changed the subject, saying, "Then it will probably be tomorrow. If the miracle doctor arrives early, we can go to the Shangguan Mansion tomorrow."

"If the miracle doctor arrives late, let him rest for one more night and go to the official service early the next morning, okay?"

"I'll do as you say. Tomorrow I'll have someone wait for them at the city gate. After they're picked up, I'll send someone to the Shangguan Mansion to inform her."

"Okay, I'm going to discuss something with Dad. You're tired today, so go to bed early."

"Wait a minute, brother!"

Shen Lebai turned around after hearing this and looked at her with a puzzled look.

"Brother, what are you going to discuss with Daddy now?"

"Why, you're scared too?"

"Brother~."

"Okay, don't worry, it's better to let my mother talk to you about your relationship with the emperor."

He didn't dare to say anything more, because in the end he would be the one who suffered the most.

"Have you told your mother about this?"

"I already told mother this morning."

"That's all. There's always a way out. It's up to Mom to sort things out with Dad."

The two smiled at each other. This was the conclusion they came to after years of experience, so they tacitly agreed to look for their mother first before anything happened.

"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

Shen Leyan nodded. She believed him very much. She smiled and waved, saying, "Goodbye, brother."

After Shen Lebai left, Shen Leyan went back to her room to rest.

The next morning, she was still asleep when she was awakened by the noise outside.

"What happened?" Shen Leyan rubbed her eyes and called the maid.

"Miss, the young master is here." The maid said with a smile.

Shen Leyan suddenly woke up, "Why did he come here so early?"

"The young master said he wants you to go to the door to welcome the miracle doctor." The maid replied.

Shen Leyan was delighted and quickly got up to wash and dress. After she was done, she went to the front hall.

"My dear lady, you are finally here. I have finished my morning exercise, but you are still asleep."

Shen Leyan opened her mouth, a blush appeared on her face, and she retorted in a low voice: "Who told you to get up so early because you couldn't sleep?"

"Let's go quickly. The doctor will be at the door soon. Don't keep him waiting for too long."

Upon hearing this, Shen Leyan obediently followed her brother to the door and saw a carriage slowly approaching from a distance.

The curtain of the car opened and a white-haired old man walked down.

Shen Lebai hurried forward and said respectfully, "Divine Doctor, thank you for your hard work along the way."

The old man smiled and nodded, his eyes fell on Shen Leyan, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"You are the little kid from back then, right? You have grown up so big now. I was right."

Shen Leyan, who was standing aside, looked at the miracle doctor in a daze, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if she had seen him somewhere.

It wasn't until the miracle doctor stood in front of her and spoke that she turned around and came to her senses: "It is me, Le Yan, thank you for saving my life in person."

The miracle doctor smiled heartily, his voice deep and powerful, not like that of a seventy or eighty-year-old man, but rather like that of a young man.

"No need to be polite. You and I are destined to be together, so I came here."

Did he come here specifically for her? Shen Leyan was puzzled after hearing this, but she didn't know how to start. She would have plenty of opportunities to ask slowly in the future.
