The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Li Xi'an felt a warm feeling in his heart.

Except for his father, everyone in the palace wants to kill him.

Fortunately, his aunt loves him.

In the past year, whenever she learned that he had a headache or fever, she would ask for permission to come to the palace to see him, for fear that his condition would worsen.

His mother died shortly after giving birth to him.

As far as he could remember, he had never experienced maternal love.

But I did feel a little bit of this from this aunt who was not related to me by blood.

Li Xi'an made a gesture to invite people into the hall.

"In that case, please come in, aunt."

Song Yuntang entered the hall and took Li Xian's pulse.

"It's indeed a cold, but the eldest prince has a special body condition, so even if it's just a common cold, we must take it seriously." Turning to look at him, "Has the eldest prince been craving for coolness lately?"

On the side, the eldest prince's attendant Yixian muttered softly.

"How can he be greedy for coolness? He was clearly victimized."

Li Xi'an glanced in Yixian's direction, then turned to look at Song Yuntang. "It's just some minor conflicts. It's my own fault for not being careful. It's not as exaggerated as Yixian said."

His father arranged him in Yuqing Palace, found a teacher for him, and personally took charge of his studies. He naturally understood his father's thoughts.

Since ancient times, the road to succession has always been full of blood and gore.

This is just the beginning.

Song Yuntang didn't ask what exactly happened.

Given how much the emperor cared for the eldest prince, it was impossible for him not to know what the eldest prince had been through.

Since he, as a father, didn't say anything, she naturally didn't want to interfere.

But Li Xian himself had a disease that he was born with.

If other people catch a cold, they will gradually get better after resting for a few days, but if he catches a cold, he may lose his life if he is not careful.

Where could it be the little contradiction he mentioned?

The other party was clearly trying to kill him.

Song Yuntang took out a bottle of homemade pills from the medicine box, wrote down the prescription and gave it to Yixian.

"Prepare the medicine according to this prescription, boil it and give it to the eldest prince for a medicinal bath to dispel the cold. Combined with my pills, he should feel better in about seven days. The weather is getting colder now, so don't catch a cold again. If you have any symptoms during your recovery, be sure to seek treatment from the imperial physician, or send someone to find me at the Xu Mansion. I will come as long as I am free."

Li Xian tilted his head to the side, covered his mouth and coughed a few times.

He turned to look at Song Yuntang with gratitude on his face.

"Thank you, auntie."

Song Yuntang shook his head.

"Since the eldest prince calls me aunt, there's no need for him to be so polite to me. I've already explained everything I need to say, and it's getting late. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

Fan Chihai bowed to Song Yuntang.

"It's almost dinner time now. By the time Princess Le'an returns to the Xu Mansion, it will already be 3 p.m. Now that the Crown Prince calls you Aunt, and you're pregnant, why don't you just deal with it with the Crown Prince?"

Li Xi'an didn't understand Fan Chihai's purpose in keeping Song Yuntang. In the past, when his aunt came to the palace, it was occasionally time for meals, but he never asked her to stay for dinner.

Fan Chihai is my father's man.

Is this what the emperor meant?

But he usually eats alone, but today he doesn't feel lonely with his aunt by his side.

He looked at Song Yuntang.

"If my aunt doesn't mind, Xi'an will have the meal served."

Song Yuntang thought about it.

"Okay, sorry to bother you then."

If you go home at this time, you will definitely be hungry on the way.

She couldn't stand being hungry in the first place, and especially not when she was pregnant.

……

After lunch, I suddenly heard a voice coming from outside the hall.

"Princess Le'an, is the emperor's health in danger?"

Hearing the voice, Fan Chihai hurriedly stepped aside and bowed to greet them.

Song Yuntang stood up and bowed to the visitor.

"I have met His Majesty."

The emperor raised his hand and said, "No need to be so polite, County Lady."

Then sit down in the main seat.

Li Xi'an stood up with Yixian's help.

"My son, I will meet my father."

The emperor waved his hand.

"You are not in good health, so you don't need to pay attention to these etiquettes."

Song Yuntang bowed to the emperor.

"The eldest prince's health is different from that of ordinary people. While ordinary people would recover from a cold in a few days, the eldest prince will need twice as long, or even several times as long, to recover. If he's not careful, he could even risk his life. I've just prescribed medicine for him. He should feel better in a few days."

Li Junyao nodded.

"How about this? Guanju Tower is right next to Yuqing Palace. Since the emperor's illness is so serious, for the sake of safety, I have ordered people to temporarily clean up Guanju Tower and let Le'an County Lady live there. When the emperor recovers, I will have Fan Chihai personally escort Le'an County Lady out of the palace."

As he spoke, he looked in the direction of Song Yuntang.

"What does the Princess of Le'an think?"

Song Yuntang did not expect that the emperor would let her live in the palace.

I have never stayed here before, no matter how late it was.

Li Xi'an looked at him.

"Father, my son's illness is not a problem. Lord Xu has just returned from the Western Territory. It would be better to let Aunt go back and reunite with Lord Xu."

Li Junyao looked in the direction of his son with a puzzled look on his face.

"My prince, don't you like your aunt to be closer to you?"

Li Xi'an said truthfully, "I am close to my aunt because she is kind to me, but she has her husband and children. I cannot selfishly keep her by my side. This would be unfair to her."

Li Junyao was silent for a moment before speaking again.

"Princess Lou Yishang from the Western Regions asked me for a favor today, saying she wants to marry Lord Xu and doesn't even care that he has a wife. What does the Princess of Le'an think of this?"

Li Xi'an was a little surprised.

No wonder my father acted out of character today.

It turned out to be this reason.

But Lord Xu doesn't seem like the kind of man who would abandon his wife and children. If the princess of the Western Regions insists on marrying him, what will my aunt do?

Thinking of the emperor's words just now asking her to stay overnight in the palace, he suddenly realized something.

Song Yuntang looked at the emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, may I ask if my husband agrees?"

Li Junyao shook his head.

"That's not true."

"That's it," Song Yuntang said. "I, a minister, cannot control what others think or feel. What I think is not important. What is important is how he treats this matter."

Li Junyao looked at her.

"What if he agrees?"

"If he agrees, I will ask to leave the marriage and stay away from him from now on."

Listening to her resolute words, Li Junyao suddenly felt that his understanding of her seemed incomplete.

Although she looks similar to the late queen, her personality is much stronger than hers.

On second thought, maybe it was because Qinxue was the queen, so she had to consider the overall situation.

"Have you, Lady Le'an, ever learned about women's discipline and precepts? You should know that if a woman is jealous, she is breaking one of the seven grounds for divorce. If your husband divorces you, it will do you no good."

Song Yuntang bowed.

"I come from the countryside and have never learned the rules for women. I haven't asked my husband not to have a new lover, but I can't tolerate any injustice in my eyes. The day he finds a new lover, it will be the day I leave him."

The emperor's brows relaxed.

"Princess Le'an, what do you think I should do with this princess from the Western Regions?"

Song Yuntang saluted.

"I, a minister, dare not make irresponsible remarks on the affairs of the court."

"Forget it." Li Junyao looked at her, "Princess Le'an, please stay in Guanju Tower for now. When the prince gets better, I will let you go."

It is said that when a girl pursues a boy, it is easy for him to succeed.

If the princess of the Western Regions is truly determined, I think there should be results in the next few days.
