Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 980: Your Majesty, do you still want to spare her life?
"what?"

Upon hearing that the Princess of Qin was ill, Yuwen Yuan immediately frowned, and Yuwen Qian, who had just sat down, exclaimed in surprise. Yuwen Yuan turned his head and looked at him, but said nothing. He just looked at Eunuch Yu again: "What's the matter? Wasn't he fine yesterday?"

Eunuch Yu said, "I also asked Doctor Su, and he said that he had caught a cold, and he was frightened these past two days, so he fell ill last night."

"Wind chill?"

"Yes. Because they are afraid of being cheated on. I heard that Concubine Tao went to visit them just now, but was also persuaded to go back."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yu Wenyuan fell silent.

Yuwen Qian had originally been preparing to stand up, but after hearing the last sentence, he sat back down again, and his pale face became even more solemn.

Yu Wenyuan was silent for a moment, then waved to Eunuch Yu. Just as the latter was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly heard him say, "Is Imperial Doctor Su back?"

Eunuch Yu hurried back and replied, "Yes."

"Send her over here."

"Ah, yes."

Eunuch Yu accepted the order and turned to leave, but before he left the hall, he was stopped by Yu Wenyuan. He was silent for a moment, waved his hand and said, "No need to let her come. You can go down too."

"Yes."

Eunuch Yu didn't dare to say anything more and left the Liangyi Hall.

Yuwen Yuan sat behind the imperial desk, thinking for a moment before sighing. He then looked at Yuwen Qian, whose expression was even more serious than before, and said, "Take a rest. You can go back too."

"Father..."

"go back!"

Hearing him say this, Yuwen Qian seemed to understand that there was no room for maneuver, at least not at the moment. He could only slowly stand up, support his shaky body with his sore legs, salute him, and then slowly leave the Liangyi Hall.

After leaving the hall, he did not leave the palace to return to his Prince's Mansion, but instead walked towards Qianqiu Palace.

After a while, I walked outside Qianqiu Palace and saw that the door was closed.

The attendant following behind him whispered, "Your Highness, let's go back first."

"..."

Yuwen Qian waved at him, then walked forward and actually knocked on the door of Qianqiu Palace himself. There was silence all around, and although the sound of his knocking was not loud, it was still very deafening.

After a while, there was a sound of hurried footsteps from inside, and then the door was opened a little.

What was revealed was half of Tushe'er's somewhat surprised face.

When she saw Yuwen Qian standing outside the door, she was immediately surprised, but she still held the door and said softly, "Your Highness, I am sorry for being rude."

Yuwen Qian said calmly: "I heard that the Princess of Qin was ill, so I came to see her."

Tusheer smiled and said, "Please forgive me, Your Highness. The princess is indeed ill. She has caught a cold and is very weak now. The chief physician told her to rest and recuperate, so she cannot see Your Highness for the time being."

Upon hearing this, the attendant behind Yuwen Qian immediately stepped forward and said, "Asshole! How dare you stop His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Yuwen Qian turned around and winked, and the attendant could only take a step back. Tusheer was startled by the man's shouting, but she still held the door tightly and said with a smile: "Your Highness, please forgive me. How dare I stop you? I just want to do it for your sake. The chief physician said that the princess's illness this time may be fatal. Concubine Zhang, Concubine Tao, and several other ladies came to visit, but they all went back."

"..."

"Please don't blame me, Your Highness."

Yuwen Qian looked at her for a while and said calmly: "Okay." "..."

"Please also tell Princess Qin that I hope she will recover soon."

Hearing him emphasize the word "as soon as possible", Tusheer was slightly startled, but immediately put on a full smile: "I will definitely convey the good intentions of Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Yuwen Qian nodded and left with his entourage.

After watching their backs disappear, Tushe'er immediately closed the door, turned around and hurried back to the inner hall. At this time, Shang Ruyi was sitting on the couch, leaning against the window and reading a book leisurely, with little Yuanqian crawling around her. Su Qinglan came and looked at the decoction and pills given by Lin Shi'an, and said that they all worked very well. Sure enough, in just one night, the little guy became a hundred times more energetic. If Shang Ruyi hadn't been distracted from time to time and reached out to grab his clothes, he would have pounced on the ground again.

When Tusheer walked in, the little guy was being held by Shang Ruyi by the collar, unable to move, and crying. Tusheer hurriedly went forward to pick him up, and then said, "Princess, the Crown Prince is here."

"Oh?"

Shang Ruyi put down the book in his hand after hearing this: "What did he say?"

Tusheer said, "He said he came to visit the patient, but I politely rejected him using the words of the imperial physician Su."

"He just left?"

"Yes, but the followers around him are very fierce."

Shang Ruyi smiled faintly and said, "It's a straightforward departure."

Tusheer said: "However, he asked me to bring him a message, saying that he hopes the princess will recover soon."

At this point, Tusheer put the struggling little Yuanqian back on the couch, and approached Shang Ruyi and whispered, "Does he know that the princess is pretending to be sick?"

Shang Ruyi lowered his eyelids and said calmly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is extremely smart, so my little trick will certainly not be hidden from him."

"..."

"Not only him, I'm afraid even the emperor knows that I'm pretending to be sick."

Tusheer opened his eyes wide: "Since everyone knows that the princess is pretending, why does the princess still pretend?"

Shang Ruyi glanced at her with a smile: "What do you think?"

"..."

Tusheer looked at the roof and thought for a while, then said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to the palace this time to plead for Han Yuhui, but the Emperor will definitely not agree. Did he come here just to get the Princess to give in?"

Shang Ruyi smiled and nodded: "Yes, it works."

"..."

"The biggest victim in this incident is Yuan Qian, and the second is me. Yuan Qian can't speak. If we want the emperor to give Han Yuhui a chance to live, the only way is for the victim to forgive her. If I don't forgive her, even if the emperor really wants to spare her life, he can't do it."

Tusheer nodded gently, thought for a while, and suddenly asked: "Then, does the emperor want to?"

"..."

Hearing this question, the smile on Shang Ruyi's face froze for a moment.

She was silent for a while, and then said, "You asked me yesterday why the emperor didn't punish her directly, but handed her over to the Dali Temple, since there was evidence. It seems that the answer is here."

Tusheer asked, "Your Majesty, do you still want to spare her life?"

Shang Ruyi said: "It seems so."

"..."

Tushe'er lowered her head and thought about it again. A trace of worry suddenly appeared on her usually pretty and innocent face. She looked at Shang Ruyi with wide eyes and said, "Princess, if the emperor wants to spare her life, but you insist on her death, will that -"
