An hour later.

Standing next to the emperor's dragon bed were the old miracle doctor, Mo Lingwei, General Chen, and Lord Lu, the commander of the imperial army.

Fortunately, the miracle doctor arrived in time and administered acupuncture to the emperor, which stabilized his condition.

"Actually, from what I've seen, the emperor's illnesses are mostly caused by heart problems. If the emperor is worried about anything, he should get rid of it as soon as possible, otherwise it will delay the recovery of the dragon body."

In front of everyone, the miracle doctor said this.

Mo Lingwei pursed his lips and looked at the sickly pale emperor on the dragon couch.

What kind of heartache could my father have? Could it be that he is still worried about his lifelong affairs?

The emperor nodded lightly, not wanting to say more: "Ling Wei, please escort the old gentleman out of the palace for me."

Mo Lingwei didn't disobey anymore and made a gesture of invitation.

After arriving outside the main hall, the miracle doctor Sima Han stood still and raised an old but kind face.

"Your Highness, I am an outsider. It is inconvenient for me to talk about certain things, and I shouldn't. However, since I am treating the emperor's illness and breaking his pulse, I still want to give you some advice."

"Old sir, please speak." Mo Lingwei's attitude was respectful.

Sima Han: "The emperor's current condition makes it inappropriate to get angry anymore. When I checked his pulse just now, I found that his heart was blocked."

"This situation is quite similar to what Second Master Xie was going through back then. If there is another emotional ups and downs, I'm afraid of the consequences. I don't need to say more."

Mo Lingwei's pupils suddenly tightened.

Mr. Xie was so angry that he ended up vomiting blood and becoming paralyzed. It took almost ten years for him to slowly get better.

There is no need for the old miracle doctor to explain how dangerous it is.

Mo Lingwei came back to his senses and raised his hands: "Junior knows."

After sending away the miracle doctor, Mo Lingwei locked himself in the imperial study.

The emperor specially sent someone to inquire, and the eunuch reported back: "I asked the people outside the imperial study, and they all said that His Highness the Crown Prince had locked himself in for two hours. During this period, Wu Fang went in to deliver tea once, but he saw that His Highness the Crown Prince was holding himself up. I don’t know what my head is thinking about.”

The emperor held the medicine bowl and said nothing, staring at the warm sun outside the window.

The chief eunuch knew that the emperor was in a bad mood, so he specially picked out words that made the emperor happy.

"Your Majesty, this servant is boldly guessing whether His Highness the Crown Prince has woken up? Seeing that you are sick, Your Highness did not say anything, but he must be anxious in his heart."

After hearing this, the emperor's face softened, he nodded slowly, and drank a spoonful of the concoction.

He was slightly relieved: "Ling Wei has been naughty since he was a child, but I know that he is not really a cruel and unfilial person."

Grand Eunuch: "Yes, this servant thinks so too, so this time, His Highness may be secretly reflecting in his heart and will listen to the Emperor's words in the future."

The emperor sighed: "I hope so."

But it was so thrilling just now that Mo Lingwei almost learned that Shen Ningning was sending Wan Chun out of the capital.

If the child becomes suspicious and sends someone to investigate, everything will be known when Wan Chun is found.

The emperor drank up the concoction in one gulp, but he drank the bitter soup with mixed flavors.

Because, after having been in power for decades, he is accustomed to the thinking of a superior.

When he realized that the matter would be exposed, the emperor's first reaction was to arrange for someone to intercept Wan Chun halfway.

A person who might reveal secrets, but whose identity is insignificant, would certainly be better off dead.

But as soon as the idea came up, the emperor hesitated for a moment and suppressed it.

Don't push Shen Ningning too hard.

Otherwise, things can easily get out of control.

at the same time.

The closed door of the royal study finally opened.

Mo Lingwei called Wu Fang.

"Your Highness, what are your orders?"

"Pass this decree on." Mo Lingwei handed over a Minghuang imperial edict.

Since the emperor's illness, all major and minor matters in Cangyun Kingdom have been supervised by the prince.

Therefore, it is not a new thing for Mo Lingwei to directly issue orders and memorials. But what surprised Wu Fang was the content of the imperial edict.

He glanced at it on his behalf, was suddenly startled, and raised his head.

"Your Highness, do you want to summon the blessed girl into the palace to pray for the emperor's illness?"

Mo Lingwei was standing at the window, playing with the beautiful single magnolia plant in a leisurely manner.

Hearing this, he lazily raised his thin eyes and glanced at Wu Fang.

"My father's condition is not good at all, so it is reasonable for him to ask a lucky girl to pray for him."

Wu Fang: "But..."

Mo Lingwei interrupted him: "I guess this is not difficult for Fu Nu. In the past, natural disasters have been solved smoothly. It's just a matter of praying for blessings. It's not a big deal. You should convey the will immediately and let Fu Nu prepare to enter the palace. .”

Wu Fang had no other choice. Although he thought it was ridiculous, he could only hand it over: "Yes, I'll leave my humble position."

When the imperial edict arrived at the Xie Mansion, Shen Ningning happened to bring Lu Shaoyuan to the house for dinner.

Prime Minister Xie and his family received the imperial edict. Halfway through the eunuch's announcement, he raised his head in surprise.

The eunuch who announced the decree said: "It is probably because the emperor's body is in poor health and has not recovered for a long time. When His Highness the Crown Prince is anxious, he invites the blessed girl to stay in the palace for a few days and pray for the emperor on his behalf."

After saying that, the eunuch handed over the imperial edict with a smile, and said with his hands in his hands: "Your Highness, the Emperor's condition is erratic. Your Highness is very worried about this. Please pack your bags as soon as possible and follow the servant to the palace tonight."

Shen Ningning pursed her pink lips, her pretty face full of sadness.

Prime Minister Xie then said: "Eunuch, I know a little bit about the emperor's condition. The miracle doctor even said that he needs to rest. This is not something that Ning Ning can do by praying for blessings."

Xie Ming'an spoke quickly, with a gloomy displeasure on his face: "My sister is a human being, not a true god. It would be better if His Highness the Crown Prince could be less angry with the Emperor."

"Ming'an!" As the eldest brother, Xie Mingxu scolded his younger brother.

The eunuch's face was already a little embarrassed.

Xie Mingxu said politely: "My second brother's words are unpleasant, but they are not unreasonable."

Mr. Xie nodded from the side: "Besides, Ning Ning is going to get married soon. It would be inconvenient to stay in the palace temporarily at this time."

The eunuch felt helpless. This family really didn't make sense, but there was nothing he could do.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, all my young lords, and Your Highness the Princess, please understand me. This servant is only delivering orders on your behalf. Please don't make things difficult for me."

Prime Minister Xie's voice became colder: "My father-in-law, please return to the palace with the imperial edict first. I will go to meet His Highness personally during the court tomorrow morning and then have a detailed discussion with him."

However, Shen Ningning, who had been keeping her lips pursed and silent, now said: "Eunuch, we have accepted the imperial edict."

She stretched out her hand, and Eunuch Xuanzhi quickly placed it in her palm like a hot potato, for fear that Shen Ningning would regret it.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess is always so sensible. So, I will return to the palace now. Someone will come to pick up the Princess after evening."

He handed over to Prime Minister Xie and others and ran away in a hurry.

"Ning Ning! You really don't need to agree." Xie Suzhi looked at his daughter with a distressed expression.

Everyone knew why Mo Lingwei brought her to live in the palace in the name of Fu Nu.

He hasn't given up yet.

Lu Shaoyuan on the side did not speak a word the whole time, looking at Shen Ningning with complicated eyes and worry.

He had no right to comment on the matter between her and Mo Lingwei.

But if you ask him what he thinks in his heart, he certainly doesn't want Ning Ning to enter the palace.

Shen Ningning listened to her father's words, and her brothers beside her also supported her, not wanting her to agree.

However, the more the Xie family disobeyed the emperor's orders for her, the more they would arouse the emperor's dissatisfaction.

Shen Ningning knew this very well. The emperor's previous words were because he was afraid that after she became the queen, the Xie family's achievements would shake up the master and threaten the Mo family's power.

So, this time, she had to go.

Shen Ningning reassured her father and brother.

She turned and walked to Lu Shaoyuan.

"Lu Shaoyuan, don't worry, come pick me up when I'm about to leave the palace."

Lu Shaoyuan was comforted a little, and he nodded heavily: "I will definitely come."
