“I know,” Han Jingshu whispered.
There were no other women in his backyard. On the surface, it seemed that she took up all his love. In fact, he did not come to her room much. She was not sure if he could only dote on a woman so much, or if he could only give her so much love.
Han Jingshu asked bitterly, “If it were the Princely Heir Consort, could he tolerate it and only go to her room once every three to five days?”
They were newlyweds! How could they restrain themselves like this?
Jun Chang’an looked at her indifferently and said, “Isn’t it a little against your status to say such things to me, Princess Consort?”
“Then go complain to His Highness!” Han Jingshu was also in a fit of anger and did not want to talk nonsense with this fellow!
Han Jingshu left angrily, not noticing that the handkerchief in her hand had fallen. Jun Chang’an stepped over the white handkerchief. Under the moonlight, the silk handkerchief was as white as a handful of clean snow. Jun Chang’an walked back and sighed as he picked up the silk handkerchief.
On the other hand, after Yan Huaijing’s carriage drove out of the Prince Jing
Manor, Jun Chang’an did not catch up for a long time. He said to the coachman,
“There’s no need to wait. Walk faster.”
“Yes!” The coachman waved his horsewhip and increased the speed of the carriage. Suddenly, a nimble figure flashed into the carriage and bowed.
“Your Highness.” Jun Chang’an sat down.
“Why did you take so long?” Yan Huaijing asked.
Jun Chang’an paused and thought for a while. “Nothing. I was delayed by a small matter.”
It was true that Jun Chang’an was Yan Huaijing’s guard, but he was not one of the guards in the manor. Yan Huaijing and Jun Chang’an had actually made a ten-year promise because of a freak combination of factors. In these ten years, Jun Chang’an was used by Yan Huaijing to protect Yan Huaijing’s life and death. However, Jun Chang’an was not a servant. He could have his own life and secrets, as long as this secret did not hurt him.
Therefore, even though Yan Huaijing could tell that Jun Chang’an was holding back on him, he did not say anything. He only took a deep look at Jun Chang’an and instructed the coachman to hurry into the palace.
Initially, the Young Master Manor was not called the Young Master Manor, but Prince Yan’s Prince Manor. When Prince Yan reached the age of leaving the palace, he had already been suspected by the late Emperor. What good manor could the late Emperor give him? If the Emperor, who was the Crown Prince back then, had not stopped him, the late Emperor would have been able to bestow the manor outside the capital.
After all, Yan Huaijing was the Emperor’s most valued son. He had to attend court and help deal with a large number of political matters, so his Prince Manor was the closest to the palace.
In terms of distance alone, Yan Jiuchao did not have the advantage, let alone that Yan Jiuchao was not in a hurry. He only walked slowly on the streets. Therefore, Yan Huaijing really entered the palace earlier than Yan Jiuchao.
The Emperor was recuperating in the Longevity Palace. After Yan Huaijing alighted from the carriage with the pill, he went straight to the Longevity
Palace.
The Longevity Palace was heavily guarded. Of course, it was not only his spies, but also the Empress’s.
“Greetings, Your Highness. It’s so late. Why is Your Highness here?” A eunuch with a horsetail whisk bowed to Yan Huaijing. This eunuch’s surname was Su and he was the Empress’s trusted aide.
Yan Huaijing said seriously, “I’m here to treat Father’s illness.”
Eunuch Su smiled. “His Majesty has just fallen asleep. Prince Qing is accompanying him inside. Prince Jing, why don’t you come back tomorrow?”
Prince Qing was the Empress’s flesh and blood. Since the Empress had this privilege, she naturally thought of ways to arrange for Prince Qing to make his presence known in front of the Emperor. He was not surprised to be at the Longevity Palace. What was surprising was that Eunuch Su actually asked Prince Jing to come another day.
Was it a bad thing for the Emperor to have an attendant? Obviously not.
This Eunuch Su was clearly stopping Yan Huaijing.
Yan Huaijing supervised the country, and the Empress listened to politics. The two sides’ strengths were on par, but if they had to compete, Yan Huaijing was naturally like a fish in water in the court, and the Empress of the harem could cover the sky.
This was also why Yan Huaijing felt that his spies could not stop Yan Jiuchao.
Not only was Yan Jiuchao domineering to him, but there were also the
Empress’s people who made things convenient and supported Yan Jiuchao.
Of course, the Empress still had to do a good job on the surface. In the past, Eunuch Su would definitely not stop Yan Huaijing, but things were different now. The moment Yan Jiuchao returned to the Capital, the Empress received the news. She also heard that Yan Jiuchao had left the Young Master Manor and was coming to the palace. It was obvious that he was here to visit the Emperor.
As for Yan Huaijing, he had already come to greet the Emperor today. Logically speaking, there was no need for him to come again. The reason why he still came was most likely related to Yan Jiuchao entering the palace.
No matter what he was here for, the Empress felt that it was best not to let him see the Emperor. She would make plans after she discussed it with Yan Jiuchao.
The Empress had been looking forward to Yan Jiuchao for a long time. Yan
Huaijing’s power was too terrifying, and her Prince Qing was disappointing. If
Yan Jiuchao didn’t come back soon, she wouldn’t be able to defeat Yan Huaijing.
As it turned out, Yan Jiuchao was Yan Jiuchao, and the Empress was the Empress. Whether Yan Jiuchao returned or not, she could not defeat Yan Huaijing!
Yan Huaijing snorted coldly. “How dare you! Do I need you to tell me what to do if I want to see Father! Hurry up and leave. Are you waiting for me to beat you to death?!”
Eunuch Su was stunned on the spot.
The advantage in the court was enough to spread to the harem. The reason why Yan Huaijing had been tolerating many things in the harem was just to pretend to deceive the Empress and paralyze her appropriately. For example, the Empress only left a eunuch here to guard the Emperor because she was confident in her power in the harem. If she were to oversee the Longevity Palace herself, would Yan Huaijing be able to barge in?
When the Empress received the news and rushed to the Longevity Palace, it was already too late. Yan Huaijing had successfully presented the medicine. The Emperor had indeed recovered and was overjoyed!
‘Greetings, Princely Heir Yan!” At the entrance of the palace, Yan Jiuchao alighted from the carriage. The guards bowed to him.
Yan Jiuchao walked over expressionlessly. He had never used the Emperor’s orders or summons to enter the palace. The guards respectfully made way for him. Unexpectedly, after taking a few steps, he met Yan Huaijing, who was about to leave the palace.
It was a coincidence, but it also felt like Yan Huaijing was deliberately waiting for him here.
Counting the days, they had not seen their cousins for almost an entire year. Yan Huaijing was still the same Yan Huaijing, but Yan Jiuchao was no longer the Yan Jiuchao in their memories. Of course, it was impossible for him to grow any older. However, Yan Huaijing did not know if it was his imagination, but he felt that this fellow was taller and more heroic than before.
He looked even better.
Speaking of which, he was almost twenty-five years old.. Shouldn’t he be withered and dim when he reached the predicted dying year? Why was he so powerful that his entire body seemed to be glowing?
