The eldest princess bumped into Xin Yi and Fu Jiuqu in the carriage on the spot and was so angry that she almost fainted.

For a moment, the maids and women screamed to help each other, and the house was in chaos.

In Fu'an Courtyard, the earth dragon burned very much.

Fu Jiuqu walked in, took a look at the eldest princess lying on the couch, and silently took off the outer cloak. Zhou Yiliu reached out to take it, but he avoided it expressionlessly and put it on the wooden truss.

Zhou Yiliu retracted his hand and stood aside.

"Mother." Fu Jiuqu sat beside the eldest princess's couch. His moon-colored robe looked a little thin.

The eldest princess closed her eyes, as if asleep, and ignored him.

Fu Jiuqu pursed his lips, "It's not what you think."

The eldest princess remained quiet, her eyelids not trembling even once.

For Fu Jiuqu, he was not afraid of being scolded, but he was afraid of being alone and secretly hurting his nerves.

"It's my son's fault." He stopped explaining and stretched out his hand to tuck the quilt for Zhao Yuqing. He wanted to put her exposed hand under the quilt to avoid catching the cold, but Zhao Yuqing moved it away without leaving a trace.

Fu Jiuqu's hands were frozen there, which was a bit funny.

"Really angry?"

The room was so quiet that the girls and women didn't dare to express their anger.

Zhou Yiliu stepped forward and said softly: "Your Majesty, Your Highness was a little unwell last night. He said he was not feeling well. He sat up and read a book at the fourth watch, and just closed his eyes at dawn... Otherwise, we should ask the imperial doctor to come over and take a look.

.”

Her voice was warm and her temper was gentle, but she was convincing in the eldest princess's room. As soon as she opened her mouth, the two little girls followed suit, and Chang and the eldest princess Qian's mother-in-law also nodded in agreement frequently.

.

Fu Jiuqu turned around and ordered Granny Qian to come to the eldest princess's room.

"Go and call Madam Zhang."

Mrs. Qian was startled and said, "Prince, I'm sorry to say that the eldest princess is so angry with that lady. It's better not to let His Highness see her getting upset again."

Fu Jiuqu said: "She is among the girls."

Mrs. Qian smiled and said: "Your Highness is of a noble body, not something that even any barefoot doctor can look at..."

This mother-in-law and the eldest princess are very old and very respectable. Fu Jiuqu usually never controls the people in his mother's room, especially such an old man. Even if there is something that is not in line with the rules, he will turn a blind eye.

He closed his eyes, but Mrs. Qian refuted him twice, and Fu Jiuqu lost his temper.

"In front of this king, is it your turn to speak?"

Mrs. Qian was stunned and looked embarrassed. She said yes and stepped aside.

"No need to scream." Zhao Yuqing didn't open her eyes and sighed weakly, "I'm not sick and I don't want to see anyone. You all can go down."

Fu Jiuqu saw that her face was pale, but he still felt uneasy.

"Go and call!"

"Yes." Mrs. Qian looked at Fu Jiuqu's face and went down.

Zhao Yuqing opened her eyes and stretched out her hand towards Zhou Yiliu.

Zhou Yiliu hurriedly stepped forward to help her sit up, stuffed a Suzhou embroidered soft pillow from Begonia Spring Sleep on her lower back, and stuffed a blue hand warmer into the eldest princess's hand, and said softly:

"My maid heard that Mrs. Zhang's medical skills are very good. Even Mr. Zhou praised her, so it would be good for her to come and take a look..."

The eldest princess stared at Fu Jiuqu, "Yi Liu, you go out first. I have something to say to Chonglou."

She rarely used such a serious tone. Zhou Yiliu paused, said yes, and silently took the two little girls out together.

Mother and son looked at each other, and Fu Jiuqu picked up the white porcelain tea cup on the table and brought it to the eldest princess.

"Mother, drink water."

The eldest princess frowned, took a sip, and sighed, "Why didn't you tell mother that such a big thing happened?"

Fu Jiuqu pursed his lips and said, "My mother has been practicing cultivation for many years and has long since stopped caring about worldly matters. My son doesn't want to upset his mother."

"How can you not be worried when you are in this mortal world?" The eldest princess glanced at him and said, "You kid is really good at planning, including your mother..."

Fu Jiuqu raised his eyes and just smiled.

"If the mother's token is not used, the son will not be able to ask his uncle to come out of the palace."

Today they had a conflict on Imperial Street, and Zhao Guan's family came suddenly. It was certainly not a coincidence, but Fu Jiuqu specially asked someone to take the eldest princess's token into the palace, saying that the eldest princess was unwell and wanted to see her brother. Only then did Zhao Guan's family come.

Came over in a hurry.

When you go to the Princess Palace from Xuandemen, you will definitely pass by Yu Street. Of course, you will inevitably bump into it, and the next thing will be a matter of course.

"The son has confessed to his uncle, and the uncle has forgiven his son, and the mother has also heard the news." Fu Jiuqu handed over the tea cup for the second time, as if he was asking for forgiveness.

This time Zhao Yuqing did not go to get the water, but said dissatisfiedly: "Fifty big board, I really forgive you."

Fu Jiuqu had a headache, "Zhou Daozi is always chatty and talkative..."

"Hmph, if my mother hadn't forced me to ask Mr. Zhou, were you going to keep hiding it from my mother?"

"Mother..." Fu Jiuqu said helplessly, "My son is wrong."

Every time I admit my mistakes quickly, I refuse to correct them.

The eldest princess looked at her child who was in great pain and felt indescribably sad when she thought that he was about to get hit by a fifty-year-old boy.

"Although mother has never asked about the affairs of the court, she is not ignorant. As long as your uncle does not give birth to a prince, this matter of admonishing and establishing an heir will never stop. It is difficult for you and me, mother and son, to be caught in the middle.

…”

After a pause, the eldest princess stretched out her hand and stroked Fu Jiuqu's face.

"My son did the right thing this time, lest they always force your uncle to make decisions and sow your nephew's feelings. This beating, my son suffered, but it can buy him a long time of peace..."

Fu Jiuqu smiled and said, "Then the mother is still angry with her son?"

The eldest princess took back her hand and frowned again.

"Originally, your bride-to-be was in a dilemma, and she wanted to delay it for a while, waiting for the issue of the heir to be finalized before making a decision. But as soon as this incident came out today, the relationship between us and the Zhang family has been forged, so there is nothing to be done about it.

I hesitate."

Fu Jiuqu's face turned gloomy, his lips pursed and he said nothing.

The eldest princess examined his expression and said, "You are now quite old. Mom wants to agree to the Cao family's marriage. What do you think?"

Fu Jiuqu did not respond.

The eldest princess added: "My mother also thinks highly of the Cao family. Empress Cao is virtuous and is really destined to be the general family of the Cao family. You and Commander Cao are from the same family, so you know the roots of the family. Although the eldest girl of the Cao family is arrogant,

, she is a little pampered, and her appearance is not as good as my son's... But good land can always grow good crops. When she gets married, it will be better if she gets older and tempers her character..."

Fu Jiuqu held the white porcelain cup in his hand and remained silent.

The eldest princess rambled on about many pros and cons, but when she saw that he didn't move, she didn't know where her soul had flown, so she coughed heavily.

"What do you think? If you feel aggrieved or inappropriate, mother will give you a choice. However, we have offended the Zhang family first. If we offend the Cao family again, it may be difficult for my son to gain a foothold in the court in the future...

Cough! Cough cough…”

"Mother." Fu Jiuqu saw that the eldest princess's face turned red from coughing. He leaned forward and patted her back, his eyes slightly lowered, "Mother has the final say on these matters, you don't need to tell me."

The eldest princess stopped coughing and laughed, "If you don't care about marriage, how can it happen?"

Fu Jiuqu said: "It's fine as long as it suits the mother. It's the same for the son."

The eldest princess examined his face and said, "What about Lady Zhang? If my son really likes her, there is nothing wrong with taking her into the house and becoming a concubine..."

Fu Jiuqu took a breath, his face changed, and his voice became a little darker.

"What did mother say? Xiao Zhang is Xingyuan's widow! Brothers and wives are not to be fooled. How can my son be such a shameless person?"

This time, the eldest princess's frown finally relaxed.

"My son is born so well, and is both civilized and martial. There are really not many women in this world who can match him... It is really unfair for you to marry Miss Cao."

She patted Fu Jiuqu's hand, but he shrank back.

"If a mother takes good care of her body, her son will not be wronged."

~~

When Xin Yi walked over under the leadership of Mrs. Qian, she saw Zhou Yiliu waiting outside the door.

On this day, it was freezing cold outside. Zhou Yiliu stood in the wind, his face getting paler.

"Ms. Zhang." Zhou Yiliu was attentive to the ceremony, and as a courtesy, he motioned to Mrs. Qian to prepare water for Xin Yi to wash her hands, and personally led him inside, "Please come this way."

The walk to the inner room was not long, and the two of them exchanged polite greetings.

Xin Yi asked about the health condition of the eldest princess.

Zhou Yiliu said: "The eldest princess has been in low energy recently and has been restless at night. Mr. Zhou came to see her and said it is an old problem."

She smiled suddenly, saw Xin Yi looking at her critically, and explained: "I have often been at Baiyun Temple these years, and I was accompanying His Highness when he went up the mountain. I don't know it completely, but there are His Highness's medical records in the mansion.
