Something flashed through Qin Wanyou's mind, and she was about to pursue it when she was interrupted by the sound of the door suddenly opening.
A figure quickly approached the table. "I guessed right. I saw my uncle's carriage downstairs. I knew my uncle must be eating here."
Then Gu Siyuan looked at Qin Wanyou and said, "Hello, Auntie!"
Qin Wanyou nodded slightly but did not speak.
Mo Dong appeared at the door at this moment. "Master, I'm sorry, I couldn't stop Young Master Gu."
Murong Xiao waved for Mo Dong to leave.
Feeling a little displeased at the sudden appearance of this person who had come to disturb them, they asked Gu Siyuan, "What are you doing here?"
Gu Siyuan asked the waiter to add another pair of chopsticks, picked up an empty bowl from the side, ladled out a bowl of soup, and said, "I forgot that today is the day my aunt is returning home. I went to the Prince's Mansion but you weren't there, so I came out to go shopping after a while."
He took a sip of soup, then sighed, "Sigh, I'm only now realizing how boring Yandu City is. I've only been wandering around for a short while and there's nothing fun to do. I was just strolling around when I saw your carriage. I wonder when Linglong Pavilion will open. I wonder which bastard attacked Linglong Pavilion. If I run into him, I'll beat him black and blue, make him run for his life, so his son won't even recognize him, and no one will be there to sweep their graves."
Qin Wanyou asked, "Is Linglong Pavilion fun?"
Gu Siyuan swallowed a mouthful of meat and nodded repeatedly, "It's fun, it's fun, Linglong Pavilion is fun. There's a storyteller inside who tells really interesting stories, and there are lots of fun and new things. If it reopens in the future, I'll invite you to come out and play."
Then, while eating, Gu Siyuan told Qin Wanyou about the fun things at Linglong Pavilion.
Qin Wanyou listened very attentively, occasionally letting out a surprised exclamation.
The more Murong Xiao looked at Gu Siyuan, the more annoyed he became. He had never thought Gu Siyuan was so annoying before.
So he raised his hand and coughed lightly.
However, the two were so engrossed in their conversation that neither noticed that Murong Xiao's expression was somewhat off.
Murong Xiao coughed a few times and, seeing that none of them were looking at him, felt a little annoyed and quietly drank his tea alone.
After a while, Murong Xiao suddenly coughed loudly.
Gu Siyuan and Qin Wanyou noticed this at this moment and turned to look at Murong Xiao together.
At this moment, Murong Xiao covered his mouth with his hand, coughing lightly, his face slightly red, as if he was desperately trying to hold back.
Gu Siyuan immediately became anxious, "Uncle, what's wrong? Has the poison in your body flared up again?"
Qin Wanyou also stared intently at Murong Xiao.
Murong Xiao's face grew redder and redder. "It's nothing. I'm just a little uncomfortable because I've been out for too long and didn't take my medicine at noon."
"Then let's hurry back." After saying that, Gu Siyuan got up to help Murong Xiao up and pat him on the back to help him catch his breath.
While coughing, Murong Xiao looked at Qin Wanyou and asked, "Have you...have you finished eating?"
Gu Siyuan nodded immediately, "I'm done eating, I'm done eating."
Mo Dong and the others had finished eating and, hearing Murong Xiao's commotion outside the door, immediately came in. "Master, what's wrong?"
Qin Wanyou instructed, "His Highness is unwell, quickly prepare the carriage."
Then, Gu Siyuan and he each helped Murong Xiao downstairs, one on each side.
Before getting into the carriage, Murong Xiao said to Gu Siyuan tactfully, "It's getting late. Don't worry your sister. We can go back by ourselves."
Gu Siyuan said, "It's alright, I'm here with you, my mother won't worry."
After saying that, she helped Murong Xiao into the carriage.
Throughout the journey, Murong Xiao had several impulses to kick Gu Siyuan off the carriage, but he managed to restrain himself in the end.
And so, the three of them squeezed into a carriage and returned to Prince An's mansion after sunset.
Of course, the carriage was actually quite spacious and not crowded at all.
Upon returning to the Prince's residence, Mo Nan immediately went to summon Doctor Luo.
Then, the group nervously helped Murong Xiao to Doctor Luo's private pharmacy.
Qin Wanyou originally wanted to go in and check on Murong Xiao's physical condition, but Mo Nan and the others stopped her outside. "Your Highness, you must be tired today. Please go back and rest. We will keep a close eye on the Prince."
Wang Mama also comforted her, "Mo Nan is right, Your Highness. Please go back and rest. We will take good care of the young master."
Since neither of them wanted her to know about Murong Xiao's situation, Qin Wanyou didn't press the matter further.
Go back to your place of residence.
Qin Wanyou asked Shuangling, "How are the preparations going with Linglong Pavilion?"
Shuangling replied, "Bingbing said that everything is almost ready and they are looking at a suitable date to open for business."
Qin Wanyou pondered for a moment and then instructed, "Have them find a suitable date to reopen. Also, have Yuling and the others compare prices with other businesses. Grain prices are bound to rise during this period, so Linglong Pavilion should make appropriate adjustments, but not too high, and not beyond what the people can afford."
Shuangling wrote them down one by one.
The next morning, Qin Wanyou got up, dressed, and went out to see Murong Xiao appearing in her courtyard in good spirits.
Qin Wanyou could only step forward and greet him, "Good morning, Your Highness. How is Your Highness's health?"
Murong Xiao helped Qin Wanyou up. "Your Highness, rest assured, you have a few more months to live. Have you had breakfast?"
Although it was past her usual breakfast time, Qin Wanyou wasn't embarrassed. "I was just about to eat."
"What a coincidence, I haven't eaten yet either, let's eat together." Actually, Murong Xiao was waiting for Qin Wanyou to get up so they could have breakfast together.
During the meal, Murong Xiao also told Qin Wanyou his purpose for coming, as he needed to go to the palace after breakfast.
The main issue is that news of yesterday's homecoming visit reached the palace, and the Emperor felt a little uncomfortable after hearing about it. He complained to Eunuch Mu, "Why didn't you go to the palace to express your gratitude when you were able to return home?"
Therefore, after hearing the message that Eunuch Mu had sent, Murong Xiao planned to go to the palace today to express his gratitude.
Qin Wanyou naturally had no objections.
After having breakfast, the two changed into palace attire and entered the palace.
This time was different from the previous times I entered the palace.
Because of Murong Xiao's health condition, the Emperor granted him special permission to enter the palace by carriage instead of disembarking at the palace gate. Therefore, Qin Wanyou didn't have to get out of the carriage at the palace gate and walk a long distance this time.
The two first went to pay their respects to the emperor.
This wasn't the first time Emperor Murong Qi of Yan had seen Qin Wanyou. When he saw the two of them appear before him, he was quite amazed. They were indeed a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman!
Today, Qin Wanyou wore a light blue palace dress, without any gold jewelry. She wore a crystal hair ornament with a crystal tassel hairpin and a pair of silver pendant earrings. Her overall demeanor was dignified, elegant, pure, and beautiful.
The emperor offered his heartfelt blessings to the two of them, and then sent them to the inner palace to thank the Empress Dowager and the Empress.
Although there were some minor hiccups along the way, I was very satisfied with the result.
When they left the palace, Qin Wanyou and Murong Xiao had many more things in their hands.
That afternoon, a large notice was posted outside the main gate of Linglong Pavilion.
