"Where is Wei Xun?" Emperor Dongshan asked, his tone a bit labored.

In the past, even though Shen Weixun was his nephew, Emperor Dongshan mostly called Shen Weixun his son. But after this incident, he called Shen Weixun more affectionately.

Li Fei stayed by the bed calmly, looking at Dongshan Emperor's weak look with understanding in her eyes.

"The prince has arranged everything in the palace and left the palace!" Eunuch Zhuo reported.

After hearing this, Emperor Dongshan looked more and more satisfied. You must know that now that he was poisoned and had an accident, usually a scheming person would wait outside and wait for him to wake up, but Shen Weixun did not take credit. Instead, he left the palace as before, which was rare.

"Well, summon him into the palace! I have something to give you!" Emperor Dongshan ordered.

Now the Dongshan Emperor could feel that he was powerless, the prince was too ambitious, and the princesses could not afford to take the lead. In addition, the envoy from Xishu was still in Qingyang City. After much thought, the Dongshan Emperor found that only Shen Weixun could be used.

Moreover, Shen Weixin's ability has been seen by Emperor Dongshan over the years. This time he entertained the envoys from Xishu beautifully and thoughtfully. More importantly, the eldest princess and her family are loyal, allowing Emperor Dongshan to delegate power with confidence.

After something like this happened, Emperor Dongshan was wary of everyone except the eldest princess and her family.

Eunuch Zhuo immediately went to do it. Eunuch Zhuo knew in his heart that Prince Shen was now likely to be favored by His Majesty, and the court from now on would undergo earth-shaking changes.

As soon as Eunuch Zhuo walked out of the bedroom, he saw several beautifully dressed princesses kneeling outside.

"Eunuch Zhuo, how is your father?" Several princesses poked their heads toward the dormitory, but could not see anything.

"Your Majesty is awake, we still have things to do at home!" Eunuch Zhuo said, and quickly stepped back to go to the eldest princess to invite someone. He had to go in person, after all, Prince Shen is no better than before.

When the princesses saw Eunuch Zhuo leaving, they thought about it over and over again, thinking that their father had woken up. They quickly knelt on the ground and kept crying into the bedroom, "Father! Father, are you feeling better?"

"Father, I am very worried!"

"Father."

Several princesses kept shouting, and the guards did not dare to do anything. After all, they were princesses, so they could only pretend not to hear.

But in the dormitory, Emperor Dongshan, who was already feeling tired, heard the sound of ghosts crying and howling outside, and felt even more uncomfortable.

"What are they shouting, do they think I'm still alive?" Emperor Dongshan cursed angrily.

"The princesses are also worried about your health. Why don't you let the princess in so that the princesses can feel at ease!" Concubine Li held the medicine bowl and fed the medicine spoon by spoon.

After hearing this, Emperor Dongshan said directly, "Let them come in, shouting will give me a headache!"

In an instant, several princesses rushed into the bedroom and rushed towards the bed, knocking Concubine Li who was kneeling beside the bed holding a medicine bowl and staggering.

"Yeah!" Li Fei shouted softly, but she lost her grip on the medicine bowl and fell to the ground, staining Li Fei's dress.

"Father, how are you, father?"

"Father, what did the imperial doctor say? Are you okay?"

"Father, my sons and ministers are worried to death! What would happen if, Father, you have some shortcomings?"

The chirping sounds disturbed Dongshan Emperor's eyes, and Dongshan Emperor saw Li Fei being knocked aside without saying a word, and even spilled his own medicine, but these daughters were not concerned at all, and just kept crying. .

"Enough!" Emperor Dongshan shouted. "Cough cough cough!" As soon as he got angry, Dongshan Emperor couldn't help but cough while covering his chest.

The princess was about to step forward to show her filial piety, but Emperor Dongshan had already waved his hand to the guards to separate the princesses and waved to Concubine Li.

"Is it okay?" Emperor Dongshan asked.

Concubine Li hurriedly knelt in front of the bed, "I'm fine with you. The princesses also care about Your Majesty. I'll ask the imperial doctor to brew this medicine again and send it to you!"

Looking at Li Fei's concern for him, and then looking at the appearance of his biological daughter, it is clear at a glance who is sincere and who is fake.

"Father."

"That's enough!" Emperor Dongshan looked at the princesses with disappointment in his eyes and a pale face. "It's time to do enough acting! He kept saying he was concerned about me, but he knocked over my medicine and smeared it with such a strong incense. Especially you!" Emperor Dongshan pointed at his youngest daughter, "Wearing red and green, you even think about dressing up, and you still say you care about me!"

Following Dongshan Emperor's words, the several princesses were speechless, not because they didn't want to defend themselves, but because they didn't know how to defend themselves.

After all, they were just putting on a show when they were kneeling outside. They didn't stop thinking about dressing up. Now, every one of them had put on makeup and smoked incense, but they didn't expect that their father would see right through them.

"Go back to me. If you come out again and embarrass yourself, I won't mind sending you to the temple!" Emperor Dongshan scolded.

The princesses originally wanted to show their filial piety before their father became seriously ill, so that they could gain his father's favor, but they did not want to backfire.

The princesses quickly retreated, not even caring about etiquette.

Eunuch Zhuo had already left the palace and headed towards the eldest princess's mansion, but Shen Weixun was not in the mansion at this time. After he left the palace, he came to the princess's mansion quietly.

Lin Jianyue had already prepared tea and was waiting for Shen Weixin's arrival.

Shen Weixun was originally surprised as to why he was so unimpeded. Logically speaking, there should be secret guards behind the scenes, but now that he saw Lin Jianyue, he realized that Lin Jianyue had known that he would come.

Tea was boiling on the table in the hall, and Lin Jianyue was sitting there, with her shiny black hair half rolled on her shoulders, looking very lazy and casual. With a smile on her face, she was as charming as a fairy descending from the earth.

Shen Weixun looked at Lin Jianyue's appearance and knew that Lin Jianyue's injuries were fine.

But in fact, when the imperial doctor returned to the palace, the first thing he did was to ask about Lin Jianyue's injuries. Even if he knew about it, he could only feel at ease when he saw it with his own eyes.

"The princess knows that I am coming?" Shen Weixun stepped into the hall and sat opposite Lin Jianyue.

Although Shen Weixun had changed into new and clean clothes, his face looked a bit tired and haggard, his delicate figure was extraordinarily slender, and his whole person was calm and relaxed.

"Guessed!" Lin Jianyue smiled playfully.

She felt that with Shen Weixun's character, he would definitely come to her after the matters in the palace were temporarily resolved. It was just an intuition, and she seemed to have guessed it right.

Shen Weixun smiled slightly and took a sip of tea first. His whole body became much more relaxed and comfortable in front of Lin Jianyue.

After being busy for so long, this was the first cup of tea Shen Weixun drank.

"Guess again, Princess, why am I here?" Shen Weixun drank three cups of tea before asking. It was obvious that he was very thirsty.

Lin Jianyue calmly added another cup of tea for Shen Weixun, and pushed the cake in front of Shen Weixun. After hearing this, her smile became particularly deep.
