Su Ran’s gaze returned to Lian Hua, unsure of what she intended.
But she saw her little daughter beckon the eunuch over, whispering slyly to him.
Those few words made her eyelids twitch.
Oh dear, her little daughter indeed still had that nature, impulsive and mischievous, energetically intending to have this eunuch chase the Divine Doctor Huang out of the palace.
What nonsense! Her body hadn’t fully recovered yet, and she still looked rather listless, yet she had the energy to do all this. Before crossing the river, she wanted to chase the doctor away and tear down the bridge, igniting a fury in her heart.
Lian Hua had just finished talking to Xiao Jizi when she felt a chill on the back of her neck.
She turned her head to look, oh no! The mother who was so gentle just now, why did her gaze turn cold?
Startled, she shivered and quickly stamred an explanation, "Mother, I, I just want the Divine Doctor to treat big brother’s leg sooner. I’m already well, so the Divine Doctor doesn’t need to stay here..."
He didn’t need to check on either...
Isn’t it a win-win?
Su Ran with a stern face shattered her little sches and reprimanded in a firr tone, "Your big brother’s leg needs treatnt, and you still have to drink your nourishing dicine, don’t think about escaping. The Divine Doctor Huang’s dical skills are extraordinary, if it weren’t for him this ti, perhaps..."
Pausing, Su Ran skipped over those ominous words and continued to scold, "He has done us a great service, he must be respected and respected, you mustn’t be so rude, understand?"
Lian Hua suddenly withered a bit, quickly nodding obediently.
"Mother, I understand these principles..." She was thinking, oh well, even if we chase him out, we should do it properly, give him big packages of thanks, have His Majesty arrange for a carriage to send him off nicely, saying it’s a joke to drive him away, just that: "Mother, I still want the Divine Doctor to treat big brother’s leg sooner."
Treating big brother’s leg was urgent, and she didn’t have anything much to do now...
Su Ran’s expression softened, she patted her head, only feeling her little daughter was as always, so caring for her family, so obedient, filling her heart with affection.
She said she knew it in her heart, there was no need to worry, taking good care of her health was the real priority.
Then Su Ran asked Lian Hua how she knew about Lian Mu’s situation.
Lian Hua then truthfully told what the Emperor had discussed with her earlier, finally saying worriedly, "Oh, Mother, big brother took soone else’s exam, they said he may be paraded on the streets, I wonder if they can cover his face and save him so dignity."
Su Ran chuckled, telling her not to worry, he wouldn’t be paraded, it’s best to focus on recovering her health.
Lian Hua felt at ease, she leaned on Su Ran’s shoulder with a lot to say, babbling on.
After all, having just recovered from a major illness, expending her energy, even though she was reluctant, she gradually beca drowsy, her eyelids growing heavy.
Eventually, she softly murmured, "Mother, you all are doing well, it’s really wonderful..."
The corners of her mouth lifted into a sweet reassuring smile, slowly closing her eyes as she drifted off to sleep.
A long while later, Su Ran quietly called soone in.
The Emperor received the news and ca over from the study.
As the two exited the room, the Emperor said, "I have already instructed him to prepare the carriage. Madam Lian has worked hard for many days, perhaps it would be better to leave tomorrow, rest for a night, and spend more ti with her?"
Su Ran shook her head, looking in the direction of the hall, "Thank you for Your Majesty’s kindness, but I have also stayed in the palace for many days, now that Nannan is alright, I should return, so they can be at ease sooner. Besides, tomorrow is crucial for the Lian Family, I must be there."
"If that’s the case, soone..." The Emperor nodded slightly, instructing Zhang Qing to escort her in person.
The future is long, there’s no hurry for this mont, he can invite the entire Lian Family to the palace once his Little Concubine’s health is better, for a proper reunion.
His Little Concubine has a good mother who doesn’t dare to accept the title of his mother-in-law, and after waking up, she didn’t want to stay long to avoid gossip for his Little Concubine, truly a mother’s loving heart.
At night, Lian Hua awoke from a deep sleep and opened her eyes to see the Emperor holding a book, leaning against the head of the bed and reading, right beside her, within arm’s reach.
Under the light, the Emperor’s face looked as flawless as jade, exceptionally handso.
She watched for a little while, unable to resist stretching her hand out from under the covers to try and tickle him, but as soon as she did, it was caught.
The Emperor, having long noticed her small actions, held her hand, set the book down, and asked with a smile, "Are you hungry?"
Lian Hua smiled, beaming, "Yes, I’m hungry."
The Emperor imdiately called soone from outside the hall to set the al, a new set of tables and chairs was brought to the adjacent hall for setting, primarily because caring for Lian Hua required a lot of helpers, with Su Ran and Nanny Qi around, there weren’t enough seats on the soft couches, and the side hall, being spacious, could accommodate another set comfortably.
Now they didn’t need to dine in the Main Hall, they could just dine in the adjacent hall simply.
Lian Hua attempted to get up.
The Emperor leaned over, lifted her, and asked, "Are you still sleepy?"
Lian Hua shook her head, she had slept enough, she wasn’t tired anymore.
She turned her head towards the door, her eyes searching all around.
The Emperor, discerning her thoughts, pinched her cheek, "These past days, your mother stayed in the palace, today seeing you’re alright, fearing your father and brother would worry, she left first. If you miss her, we can have her stay at the palace later on, how about that?"
Lian Hua felt a little down, she had only just seen her mother for less than a day.
However, she soon felt happy again, her eyes curving in joy, "Father, everyone is well."
Nothing could be better than this.
The Emperor also smiled, kissing her cheek and pulling her into a warm embrace, his heart warming, his Little Concubine really had woken up, all was well.
As they laughed, Lian Hua tugged on the Emperor’s sleeve, slipped out of his embrace with bright eyes, and asked, "Brother Zhao, when can I see my father and brother?" She was very eager.
The Emperor responded warmly, "Once you’re completely well, you can see them."
Upon hearing this, she impatiently said, "I’m well now..." She lifted the covers and tried to move, eager to get up.
But she soon realized, having not walked for a while, she didn’t feel it while lying down, but moving imdiate unveiled her weakness, her legs soft and powerless. After several attempts still in the sa spot, she had to lean back against the headboard, holding her round belly, sighing.
The Emperor found this amusing.
Once the al was set, the Emperor carried her over to eat, the table filled with delicious foods, Lian Hua’s eyes glead, almost shooting green light.
Unexpectedly, in front of her, there was only a bowl of porridge and a bowl of broth, the porridge looked so thin, just a bowl of thin porridge, not enough to even fill the gap in her teeth.
Lian Hua frowned, asking pitifully, "Father, how long do I have to keep drinking porridge?" She could bear it, but the Little lon inside her might not.
