Fengyi Palace.

"Your Majesty..." Seeing His Majesty Ji Ziqing bringing his son and sister-in-law over, Empress Dong raised her arms and wanted to sit up. His Majesty Ji Ziqing took a few steps quickly and held down Queen Dong's move to get up. He spoke in a warm voice, "Wanwan, you are in a bad health, so there is no need to stick to these false rituals anymore." Seeing Empress Dong's weak smile, His Majesty Ji Ziqing helped her half lean on the soft pillow, and then sat down beside the bed.

Although Empress Dong has been ill for almost two years and has to take medicine every day to prolong her life, there is not much medicine in Fengyi Palace.

"Please to my mother." When she saw her mother's haggard and sickness, the eldest prince Yuanyuan couldn't help but turned red in her eyes, but she refused to shed tears. She first gave her a regular greeting. No matter how she jumped outside, Ji Zishan would be much more restrained when she visited Queen Dong at Fengyi Palace. She stood so quietly and elegantly, like a graceful and gentle classical beauty in the scroll, "I have met my sister-in-law."

Queen Dong chuckled pale and weakly, and whispered: "The fan is here too."

"Yeah." Ji Zishan stretched out her hand and pushed the eldest prince Yuanyuan to the edge of the bed and said, "I left the palace for my mother today. I came back at dusk. When I went to Qianming Palace to see the eldest brother, Yuanyuan was still lying on the table to write articles. The eldest brother was too strict with Yuanyuan. Every family was not afraid of being tired of him..." The poor eldest prince Yuanyuan was only eight years old, and his daily itinerary was full. He either wanted to practice literature or martial arts every day. As long as his emperor's father was free, he would take him by his side to guide him personally, and he had a child's innocence and loveliness early on.

Because he was afraid of disturbing Queen Dong's recovery, so His Majesty Ji Ziqing ordered the people who served to not talk to Queen Dong, nor were they allowed to disturb her. In this way, although Queen Dong's ears were quite clear during her resting life, she would inevitably feel a little lonely and bored, especially since her son has grown up and has to work hard every day. It is already rare to be able to see her twice a day and talk to her for a while.

Although His Majesty often comes to see her, she always asks for comfort, and so does Empress Dowager Hui'an. Now, she is the only one who will chat in her ears. She is the only sister-in-law who has grown up day by day. Whether she hears her gossip outside the palace or hears her complaining about His Majesty, Empress Dong feels that it is rare and new. Except for her, no one will chat with her so carelessly.

"Do you think everyone is the same as you, thinking about eating, drinking and having fun all day long!" His Majesty Ji Ziqing had a handsome face with a habitual tone, and said slightly unhappy, "The emperor came here like this, are you still complaining about the world?"

Ji Zishan silently covered her mouth and murmured in a low voice: "Okay, I'm wronged, don't be angry with my brother." In fact, she also knew that as the future crown prince of a country, she was destined to be different from an ordinary child. However, when she looked at Yuanyuan's big nephew, who was so busy all day long that she was like a gyroscope, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him. In fact, she also felt sorry for her Emperor Brother, who was less than 30 years old, and her hair grew white hair on her head.

Maybe she had never met the late emperor's father, even if she was tired, could not be sure. Ji Zishan silently speculated in her heart.

"Don't be angry, my aunt is just concerned about her son's ministers, but also about her father." The eldest prince Yuanyuan looked at His Majesty Ji Ziqing with a stern face, and Xu Sheng said, "Today, all officials are resting, and my father should have a rest for a day. In order to teach her son's ministers, my father has been worrying all day, and my aunt is also concerned about your body."

Ji Zishan touched Yuanyuan's big nephew's head, smiled and praised, "Yuanyuan understands her aunt the best, and I will make dumplings for you tomorrow."

His Majesty Ji Ziqing twitched the corners of his mouth without any trace, glanced at the beautiful little sister, and whispered: "...What a little heartless." He didn't exist.

Ji Zishan just pretended that he had not heard the emperor's complaints, turned her face and went to see Empress Dong who was smiling and listening, and said, "Sister-in-law, if you feel warm every day today, if you feel you are in good spirits, you might as well go outside to bask in the sun more often. The peach tree in the corner of the yard has already been budged and will bloom soon..."

Queen Dong seemed to think of the lively appearance of peach blossoms blooming on the branches, and smiled and nodded, "Okay."

The three of them stayed in Fengyi Palace for a short time and left together. At this time, the night was dusk and the early spring night was a little cold. His Majesty Ji Ziqing wanted to go for another trip, but he was afraid that his younger sister and eldest son would catch a cold, so he asked someone to prepare a sedan chair. When he arrived at Cining Palace, the eldest prince Yuanyuan went to see Empress Dowager Hui'an, and was pushed back to the Xislien Palace by Ji Zishan: "Yuanyuan, my aunt tells you that when the child is growing up, you must eat well and sleep well, so, don't stay up late to study at night, go to bed early, have you heard?"

The aunt and nephew grew up together, so their relationship was naturally very close. Before His Majesty Ji Ziqing was around, Prince Yuanyuan had a little lively look: "Well, okay, I'll listen to my aunt... Aunt, do you really want to make dumplings for me tomorrow?"

"Of course it's true. When did my aunt deceive you?" Ji Zishan replied.

The eldest prince Yuanyuan pursed his lips silently - but the dumplings you made were really ugly. However, given that his extremely noble princess and aunts were only willing to cook for themselves and the queen mother, which made the emperor's father and uncle Yuanbao envious, the eldest prince Yuanyuan tried to ignore the shapes of the dumplings that were hard to describe: "Okay, but I want to eat vegetarian stuffing."

Ji Zishan smiled with a bent eyebrows and said, "No problem, be good, go and take a shower and go to bed. Only after sleeping well will you be better."

After sending Prince Yuanyuan back to the Xipei Palace, Ji Zishan returned to the main hall of Shoukang Palace. After walking outside for a day, she was not tired or sleepy at all. Naturally, she was lies. At this time, she had enough food and drink again, and the sleepiness quietly swept over. Ji Zishan yawned little and rubbed against Empress Dowager Hui'an, and hummed like a coquettish: "My mother, I'm a little sleepy. I don't want to worry about going back to Yunzao Palace anymore. I'll sleep with you today."

"How old are you? Why are you still like a child, always staying in your mother's harem?" His Majesty Ji Ziqing frowned and scolded.

He was scolded by the emperor again, and Ji Zishan also stretched her neck and shouted: "I am in the Cining Palace of my mother, and I am not in your Qianming Palace, why are you unhappy?"

"...Okay." Empress Dowager Hui'an patted the little girl's back and chuckled softly, "Fan, you have grown up, you can no longer look at your prince's nose, eyes are not eyes like when you were a child..." After the little girl muttered, "I respect the prince very much, but he loves to scold me," Empress Dowager Hui'an said kindly again, "You already have an independent palace and always sleep in your mother's harem. It's really a bit unreasonable. Well, although it's dark and it's not too late, go back to your own palace to rest."

Ji Zishan, who was used to acting as a caring little cotton-padded jacket, was ruthlessly driven away by the empress dowager's mother, and she couldn't help but grinned at His Majesty Ji Ziqing: "Everyone blames you. If you are sleepy, you can take a shower and go to bed directly, but if you say something, you will ask me to go back to Yunzao Palace again." He pouted unhappily, and Ji Zishan blessed Empress Dowager Hui'an, "My mother, go to bed early, I'll leave first."

As for His Majesty Ji Ziqing, Ji Zishan gave him a blessing and patted her butt and left.

"I'm leaving too, my mother will rest early." When Ji Zishan walked out of the second hall, His Majesty Ji Ziqing also stood up and offered to say goodbye. When he walked out of the Shoukang Hall, he saw his little sister bypassing the Colored Diao Corridor. His Majesty Ji Ziqing was very big, and his footsteps were slightly faster. Soon he caught up with the little sister who was walking around, "Hey, little girl, don't you pay attention to the emperor's brother?"

Ji Zishan looked at the sky and said speechlessly: "It's only been a long time since I came back from the palace. I've been scolded by you three times. If I talk to you again, I might beat me up with a feather duster. I'd better stay wherever I'm cool."

His Majesty Ji Ziqing was silent for a moment before saying, "The emperor was a little upset recently. He didn't like anything. He didn't deliberately scold you..."

Ji Zishan said softly and stopped talking - now that the world is peaceful, there is no war outside or disaster inside, the only thing that can upset the emperor is probably the only thing that upsets the emperor. Although the emperor's wife is respected as the queen, the queen is far from representing the meaning of his wife. Even if Empress Dong has been ill and sick, as long as she lives, Prince Yuanyuan is the only legitimate son of the palace. If Empress Dong has not survived one day, no one would have expected what would happen in the future.

Whether it is for the stability of the court or because of Empress Dong herself, Ji Zishan believes that her emperor brother is very much looking forward to Empress Dong's recovery.

The emperor is not really a heart-warming and cold-hearted person. At least His Majesty Ji Ziqing is not like this. He has been married to Empress Dong for more than ten years. Even though he is not a couple in love with each other, he is still respectful to each other. Alas, I don’t know how long Queen Dong can last. Although Ji Zishan does not understand medical skills, she knows that her current condition may not improve. If she really goes... Yuanyuan will do.
