The Miracle Doctor's Two-Faced Toddler Novel - Chapter 574
574 Wanwan Meets the Emperor
“Aren’t you worried that the Emperor will see the little commandery princess?” The State Preceptor asked.
Nangong Li said indifferently, “The Emperor has never seen the Eldest Princess before. Even if he sees the little commandery princess, he won’t recognize her. Besides, even if he can, wouldn’t it be better?”
As everyone knew, the Emperor was still unwilling to acknowledge the Eldest Princess. If he found out that her daughter had come to Nanzhao, it would be strange if he didn’t quickly expel her.
Besides, didn’t the Eldest Princess marry the Ghost King? How did she become the wife of a Great Zhou person? For this crime, the Emperor would never show mercy to that family.
!!
Nangong Li left the State Preceptor Hall with victory in his hands. Actually, as long as they left the Capital, whatever happened had nothing to do with him.
Nangong Li dusted his wide sleeves and got into the carriage of the Queen Manor.
“Your Highness, are we going back to the manor?” The coachman asked.
Nangong Li paused. “No, to the Tianjin Pavilion. I’ll go choose a few books for Father.”
Everyone knew that the Prince Consort likes books. The little commandery prince was filial to him and spared no expense to find the rare books for him. This filial piety was also a legend in Nanzhao.
He treated his father so sincerely and filially. In comparison, what was Yan Jiuchao? What right did his father have to keep thinking about him?
Nangong Li felt an indescribable sense of jealousy. He took a deep breath and barely suppressed it. Why should he lower himself to the level of a stray dog who was about to be expelled from Nanzhao?
Of course, this was not only to chase away his thorn in his side. The Helian family had colluded with the Great Zhou Imperial Family. This crime was enough for them to confiscate their entire family and be exterminated. At that time, he and his mother would appear to plead for mercy for the Helian family. If the Emperor wanted to pave the way for the Queen, he would definitely make the Helian family owe the Queen Manor a favor.
As long as the Helian family joined the Queen Manor, the Queen’s throne would be even more foolproof.
Helian Manor.
The little fellows were listless. They didn’t eat or drink and just leaned into their parents’ arms. Xiaobao occupied his mother alone and was especially smug. Who asked him to be the least sick and have the strongest arms and legs?
Of course, this was relative. He actually did not feel good.
They could still eat half a bowl of porridge for breakfast, but they could not eat lunch.
“Xiaobao, have a bite.” Yu Wan scooped a spoonful of soft rice to feed him.
Xiaobao turned his face away. “No.”
“Is Xiaobao feeling very uncomfortable?” Yu Wan put down her spoon and gently patted her son’s back.
Xiaobao did not say that he felt uncomfortable, but his listless look clearly showed that he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Dabao and Er’bao were already in a daze from the heat. The two little fellows sat in Yan Jiuchao’s arms in a daze. Yan Jiuchao wanted to get something and placed them on the threshold. They were not noisy and just sat there without moving, like the two silly sons of a landlord.
Yu Wan wanted to prepare the medicine and put Xiaobao down.
The three brothers sat there in a silly daze. By the time Yu Wan came over with a cold ointment, the silly little fellows had become four.
Asura also came.
Asura sat on the threshold beside Dabao with his hands on his knees. He was silly, obedient, and pitiful.
Who was to blame? Yu Wan thought to herself. Who asked you to come and get goat milk every day? See, aren’t you infected by the little fellows?
“Achoo!”
“Achoo!”
“Achoo!”
“Achoo!”
The four of them sneezed.
Yu Wan held her forehead. She could not really chase this ancestor out, nor could she sit back and do nothing. She had no choice but to make another ointment, wrap it in a handkerchief, and apply it on their foreheads.
The four of them were all applied with the baby cooling sticker that Yu Wan had personally made.
Since they were so seriously ill, it was naturally not enough to rely on the cooling sticker. They still had to take medicine. The amount of medicine they took was different, but the taste was the same.
Yu Wan handed the largest bowl of medicine to Asura.
Asura took a bite with an imposing aura. It was so bitter that his eyes rolled back and he stuck out his tongue! But he could not drink milk without medicine. Asura looked at the small milk bottle on the table and swallowed the bitter medicine.
The little black eggs also drank it aggrievedly.
Hence, after the little friends, they became sick friends again!
… .
During dinner, Xiaobao suddenly said that he wanted to eat Fuyuanzi.
The chef in the manor quickly made a bowl of Fuyuanzi, but Xiaobao shook his head and said coquettishly, “Not this.”
“Which one is it?” Yu Wan asked.
“That,” Xiaobao said, pointing outside.
“Which one?” Yu Wan was still confused.
Xiaobao was so anxious that he was furious. “It’s… it’s… that!”
Yu Wan hugged Xiaobao and looked at her husband strangely. “You understood what he said?”
Yan Jiuchao paused. “He’s talking about a shop.”
That was the day Xiaobao left home. He accidentally met the Prince Consort. The Prince Consort brought him to eat Fuyuanzi. If Yan Jiuchao understood correctly, his son wanted to eat the Fuyuanzi there.
“Do you remember where it is?” Yu Wan asked.
“Yes.” Yan Jiuchao nodded.
Yu Wan carried Xiaobao, who refused to come down from her arms, and walked to the bed. She pinched the two little fellows’ faces. “Dad and Mom are bringing Dabao and Er’bao out to eat Fuyuanzi, okay?”
The two little fellows sitting on the bed nodded blankly. Yan Jiuchao carried them and left with Yu Wan, who was carrying Xiaobao.
There was a shortcut from the back door of the Helian East Manor to the shop. It took less than fifteen minutes to walk. Yan Jiuchao did not get anyone to prepare a carriage and strolled in the alley with his wife like a commoner couple.
“How do you know this road?” Yu Wan had been here for so long, but she did not know that there was such a sharp alley on the left of the back door.
Yan Jiuchao snorted. “Do you think I’m you?”
Was he indirectly calling her stupid?!
“Mother, talk to Xiaobao!” Xiaobao hugged Yu Wan’s neck. He originally liked to occupy his mother, but now that he was sick, he became even worse. He would be jealous if his father and mother said two more words.
Yu Wan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I want to talk to your father.”
“No, no, you can only talk to Xiaobao.” Xiaobao twisted his butt unwillingly.
She was sweating profusely after this twist. Yu Wan could feel that Xiaobao was in better spirits.
The family of five came to the shop that sold Fuyuanzi. It was an old brand and was said to have been passed down for three generations. Although the shop was not big, business was surprisingly good. The last time Xiaobao and the Prince Consort came, it was not mealtime. Now, it was time to eat and it was filled with people.
Yan Jiuchao brought Yu Wan to the restaurant opposite and asked for a high-class room to sit in. For a few bowls of seven to eight copper coins, he booked a room that cost a few taels at least. Yu Wan felt that this fellow had doted on his sons to a certain extent.
Yu Wan took off the bag on Yan Jiuchao’s back and took out a set of dry clothes for Xiaobao to change into.
Dabao and Er’bao lay listlessly in Yan Jiuchao’s arms, not sweating. When Yu Wan saw that Xiaobao could walk, she led him downstairs to buy the Fuyuanzi he wanted to eat.
Yu Wan did not know if Xiaobao wanted to eat Fuyuanzi, but it was true that he wanted to slip out for a breather. The little fellow was so excited that they looked around. He was like two different people from the listless little invalid from before.
At this moment, there were even more people. Not only were the shops full, but there was also no place to stay in line.
Yu Wan was worried that the little fellow would be squeezed, so she quickly picked him up.
Xiaobao happily looked around in his mother’s arms.
The two of them queued for a full fifteen minutes. Just as it was about to be their turn, Xiaobao suddenly covered his pants. “I have to pee.”
“Now?” Yu Wan looked at the two people in front of her and then at Xiaobao. “Can you endure it?”
“No.” Xiaobao shook his head.
Yu Wan was speechless by the little fellow. She could only sigh helplessly and carry him to the toilet at the back of the shop.
After peeing, Xiaobao came out in high spirits. Yu Wan fetched some well water to wash his hands. As she was washing, a voice suddenly came from her side. “It’s you?”
“Oh?” Xiaobao turned to look at the person.
Yu Wan also turned around.
It was an old man with an extraordinary bearing. He was wearing very decent clothes. It was not too luxurious and ostentatious, but he had a calm and reserved aura. Yu Wan could tell that the other party’s words were directed at her son, but she did not remember them seeing each other.
The other party smiled kindly and walked over. He pinched Xiaobao’s cheek and said, “You don’t remember me?”
Xiaobao looked at him in confusion.
The other party pretended to be angry. “You forgot about me after eating so much from my house?”
Eat his food? When did the little fellow eat other people’s food? Wait, the manor next door.
Dabao.
Could this old man be the neighbor next door?
Dabao crawled into someone’s house through the dog hole. When he came out, his stomach was round. It was obvious that he had eaten a lot.
Yu Wan’s gaze landed on him. “So you’re that kind-hearted master. I’m Dabao’s mother. Dabao caused you trouble last time. He’s not Dabao, but Xiaobao.”
The Emperor looked at Yu Wan. She had a delicate face and exquisite facial features. She was not too beautiful, but she had a gentle and calm temperament.
The Emperor was stunned. He was a little surprised, but he could not say what he was surprised about.
