Chapter 283: Stay or Not?

The wind in the palace is always a bit softer and softer than that in other places.

An Yi woke up from her sleep, and she was sweating in cold sweat, pressing her heart, which was beating with a "bang" due to the nightmare, pouring herself a cup of herbal tea.

A cup of herbal tea penetrated her throat and she became much more awake and energetic.

Ruyi, the little palace maid who served her, heard the sound and walked in with her face wash water: "Doctor An, are you awake?"

An Yi nodded silently, took a hot veil and covered her face. The fragrant heat soaked in her pores, and her whole body became energetic: "What's wrong with the Sixth Prince?"

Ruyi smiled and said, "The Sixth Prince has asked someone to ask you just now. Your Prince woke up and took the medicine and used some rice porridge and appetizers, which were very good. But Empress Xiuyuan did not allow Your Prince to study and go out. Your Prince felt a little bored and wanted to ask you to play chess with him."

The Sixth Prince is getting better. Boys of this age usually have a lot of energy. They want to go out to play or read and write if they get a little better. However, Li Xiuyuan was frightened and kept him from going out to play all day long, let alone read and write, and had to stay in bed.

The Sixth Prince was both irritable and bored, and had to bother the palace servants around him, either insisting on playing the flute and playing the piano, or asking someone to play chess and talk about ancient times. The palace servants did not know this, and it was really painful. I don’t know who came up with the idea, but the disaster was brought to An Yi. An Yi was not afraid of this. After a while, the two became chess friends. The Sixth Prince would look for her if she was bored.

This is also normal. An Yi cleaned up a little and went to Jingren Palace. The ten-year-old sixth prince was leaning against the couch, staring at the upside-down bird hanging outside the window boredly. Aunt Jin reminded with a smile: "Doctor An is here."

The sixth prince quickly turned his head, calmed down with a beautiful little face and said, "An Yi, where have you been?"

An Yi was not afraid of him, so she walked over and helped him with a smile: "I served the Queen last night and I didn't sleep in the second half of the night. I was too sleepy, so I took a rest."

The sixth prince frowned: "You said I will see you when I wake up." There was a bit of grievance in his tone.

The Sixth Prince's pulse is good, and everything is developing in a good direction. It seems that he is overly worried. An Yi let go of his hand and patiently coaxed him: "Isn't your highness just seeing me? Do you want to play chess or listen to me reading?"

"You want you to treat me perfunctorily!" The sixth prince pouted and glared at her. An Yi looked at him with a good temper and smiled. After a while, the sixth prince was defeated and said generously: "Okay, I won't bother with you this time. It's really good for you to play the flute..." Without waiting for the other people to remind him, he changed his mind again: "No, the border war is urgent, the Queen is in health and unhealthy, and she is studying. There are no interesting good books in this palace. Let's play chess."

Halfway through the chess game, the Sixth Prince saw that he was about to lose, so anxiously scratched his head: "You are taking a wild path! Who told you to do this? You don't play like this."

An Yi smiled but said nothing, the Sixth Prince blushed and whispered: "Who taught you? It's really good, better than Master Jiang."

"Nonsense! How can you talk about the teacher behind the scenes and say that he didn't teach well? It was obvious that you didn't learn carefully." Li Xiuyuan walked in from outside quickly, scolding the Sixth Prince, while looking at An Yi vigilantly, as if she was afraid that An Yi would run outside and said that the Sixth Prince did not know how to respect his teachers and respect his Taoism.

An Yi smiled unchanged, and she stood up with her hands down: "Say my wife."

The sixth prince messed up the chess game in annoyance and fell down with his back to Li Xiuyuan: "I'm sleepy."

"You child! It can be seen that he is so ill." Li Xiuyuan turned her eyes to An Yi: "Doctor Xiao An, look..."

An Yi took a leave tactfully. The sixth prince shook his eyes at her with his back to Li Xiuyuan, his eyes full of apology and warm smile. An Yi felt warm and returned his bright smile. The sixth prince pursed his lips and smiled, withdrew his gaze, and then covered his ears, saying that he didn't want to listen to Li Xiuyuan's nagging.

An Yi remembered that she hadn't gone to Ningshou Palace for some days and was about to go to Ningshou Palace to ask Aunt Jiang for news about Feilong Pass. Xie Mantang's people occasionally heard news from Jinyu Lane, letting her know that everything was safe at home, but An Baoliang and Xie Mantang themselves were completely gone. Ningshou Palace knew much more about these news than Kunning Palace.

Aunt Jiang and the Queen Mother Lian were very happy to see An Yi. After asking about Queen Liang and the Sixth Prince, the Queen Mother Lian was not in a good mood. She gently tapped the armrest of the seat for a moment and asked, "How is Concubine Huang Shu recently?"

Eunuch Liu bowed and replied: "Empress Shu has not been out very much recently, and she only takes care of her baby in Wutong Palace all day long."

Lian asked again: "Can she go to Kunning Palace to ask the Queen about her and reimburse her?"

Eunuch Liu replied again: "I have been there, but the Empress happens to be asleep and has not been summoned..."

The Queen Mother sneered disdainfully.

While the two were talking, An Yi gently pulled Aunt Jiang's sleeve. Aunt Jiang understood and led her to the corner: "What's wrong?"

An Yi said openly: "The border is urgent, I am very worried about my father's situation. Duke Tang has not heard of him for some days. I wonder how his murder case is being handled now?"

Xie Mantang left Beijing and went to Feilong Pass for a secret secret. It was claimed that he was confined to the outside world, so An Yi could not ask too clearly.

Aunt Jiang understood, and smiled and said, "The Lord is a rare wise ruler. The matter of Feilong Pass has been deployed long ago, so it will not be a good thing for Xiao Xiao. The magistrate of An County is well. As for Duke Tang, there is a bit of a big fuss outside. It is said that the Lord protects him and insists on asking him to come forward for trial. This matter was left to Liu Song of Shuntian Prefecture to investigate. If you want to know the details, Princess Zheng will enter the palace to visit the Empress Dowager later, why don't you stay and listen?"

Aunt Jiang's tone and expression were filled with teasing meaning. An Yi pretended to not understand and said, "Master Liu is a fair person. He has always been very clear and will definitely find out the truth." Liu Song is the emperor's general friend and Tied Dangdang's confidant. He is extremely capable. The emperor taught him to deal with this matter, and his attitude was already very obvious.

Aunt Jiang was still not finished speaking and continued, "Yes, in order to investigate this matter, the emperor recently promoted an adult named Liu Yourun and asked him to go from the Ministry of Works to the Ministry of Justice to help explore the matter."

Liu Yourun, haha, An Yi laughed: "This is my father's friend." It seems that Liu Xiucai has escaped safely from the crisis of Grand Master Cai. I believe he has also played an important role in defeating Huang, right?
