Shen Tianshu fell asleep deeply because of the medicine he took. He didn't even know when Li Zian got up or when he was sent back to the room.
When she woke up and opened her eyes, she found that she was already lying on her bed. Li Zihan was sitting on the couch next to her, leaning on the table and playing quietly with something.
"Girl is awake." Mingyu guessed the time and came in, and sure enough he saw that Shen Tianshu had opened his eyes and was looking around with a confused expression.
"You just took medicine and fell asleep. It was the prince who sent you back." Mingyu knew that she had just woken up and was probably in a daze, so he explained before she could ask.
At this time, Li Zihan also abandoned the jigsaw puzzle he was playing with and ran over.
"Sister, you finally woke up."
She'd been bored to death by herself all morning.
It was a pity that the eldest brother warned her before leaving that she was still recovering from her injury and could not be disturbed casually, so she had no choice but to play by herself all morning without making a sound.
"Where is the prince?" Shen Tianshu half-propped himself up, "Has the fever gone? Are you resting now?"
Hearing her ask, Mingyu immediately pursed his lips.
When Shen Tianshu saw this, he immediately frowned and asked, "He went back to Wuchang Mansion again?"
She said and looked at Li Zihan, wondering if her sister was still here. Could it be that this person would come back again in the evening?
Upon seeing this, Li Zihan quickly distanced himself from the relationship and said, "Sister, I don't know anything. When I got up and came over, the elder brothers were already gone."
Mingyu could only say: "Don't worry, girl, the prince's fever has subsided. He was originally going to stay in the temple to rest, but suddenly an eagle came to deliver a message. There must be something urgent in the palace, so the prince left in a hurry."
Shen Tianshu thought about what Li Zian said about the war on the northwest border, and most of his anger disappeared for a while.
He rushed back as soon as his fever subsided, it must be because of something urgent!
but……
"Tell someone to go back and deliver a message asking the prince not to come to the temple at night. I will take care of the princess and let him have a good rest. Remember to take medicine and stop being exposed to the cold wind."
Seeing that Shen Tianshu was not angry, Li Zihan came up to speak for Li Zi'an and said, "Sister, don't be angry with eldest brother. The palace is really busy recently. Not only does eldest brother have to discuss matters with the adults, but also with My father talked a lot behind closed doors."
Shen Tianshu thought so. Prince Rui was recovering better and better now. Although he was still unable to move quickly, his mind was much clearer than when he first woke up.
Now that the news of his awakening has not been announced to the public, if he wants to know what happened in Huguang in the past few years, naturally Li Zian can only tell him personally.
"I know he is busy, and I don't blame him. I just don't want him to run back and forth. You see, he only fell ill after running back and forth for a few days."
Hearing this, Li Zihan nodded thoughtfully and said, "Sister is right, it was the elder brother who did not do well."
Shen Tianshu was amused by her serious look, rubbed her little face and said, "Just stay here with me for the next few days, and I will take you back with me when I return to the city, okay?" "
"Okay!" Li Zihan naturally didn't refuse. He hugged Shen Tianshu's arm and said coquettishly, "As long as sister stays with me, I can stay here as long as I want."
When Shen Tianshu complained about Li Zian in his heart, he was in the palace of Prince Rui. However, he was not discussing matters with the ministers, nor was he talking behind closed doors with Prince Rui. Instead, he was in the room of Princess Fengrong. middle.
"A sneeze——" Li Zian sneezed.
Princess Fengrong looked at him worriedly and said, "If I had known you were sick earlier, I wouldn't have called you back in a hurry. What would I do if it got serious again?"
"Grandma, if it weren't for something urgent, you wouldn't have called me back in a hurry.
"Besides, I'm in good health. I'm not that fragile. Maybe someone misses me, Ah-hee——"
Before he could finish his words, he sneezed again.
Upon seeing this, Princess Fengrong smiled and said, "I don't know if anyone misses you. I think someone might be scolding you secretly!"
Li Zian raised his hand to rub his nose and couldn't help but laugh. He thought that when he went back tonight, he would have to return the favor.
He had to be scolded in person.
Seeing the sweet look on her grandson's face involuntarily, Princess Fengrong was filled with joy.
When her son had an accident and her grandson failed to recover, she even thought that Prince Rui's palace was going to be over.
Later, her grandson finally cheered up and supported the palace, but she began to worry that the child had pushed herself too hard. His whole temperament had changed drastically, and he rarely even smiled when facing his family.
The reason why she accepted Li Zihan in the first place and even gradually regarded him as her own granddaughter was because Li Zi'an would only occasionally show a smile when facing Li Zihan.
Fortunately, everything is over now.
Not only did the son wake up, but the smile on the grandson's face also grew more and more.
And all this is thanks to Shen Tianshu.
Thinking of this, Princess Fengrong asked: "How is Tianshu's child's health? How could such a good person encounter such a thing?"
"Oh, it's really difficult for that child. Why has his life been so miserable since he was a child?
"The Shen family is the same. Although it is not a wealthy family, it can be said to be a wealthy family with a farming and studying heritage. There are so many dirty things happening behind closed doors."
"It will be good if she marries into our family in the future. Then her grandmother and parents will definitely love her, and Zihan also likes her." Li Zian said, "She should marry into our family!"
"That's what I said, but when I think of the crimes she suffered in the Shen family at a young age..." Princess Fengrong sighed, "No wonder you asked me to see if you could help Master Shen. It's a reliable sequel. I didn't take it too seriously before. I thought if there was an old lady here, wouldn't it make me annoying if I overstepped my boundaries?
"Now it seems that you have known for a long time that the rest of the Shen family are unreliable, right?"
Li Zian said noncommittally, "Grandma is the one to worry about anyway!"
"Okay, I understand this time. It's just been a year now, and it's almost time to start seeing each other." This time, Princess Fengrong officially accepted the matter, and then turned to the main topic, "I'm anxious to call you back today because I have some confidence in the matter you asked me to help investigate last time."
Li Zian immediately perked up after hearing this.
"The people I sent out found the nanny who served the Queen Mother back then, and got something from her hand."
Concubine Fengrong said, taking out an embroidered screen and handing it to him.
Li Zian took it and saw that what was embroidered on it was the poem written by the late emperor.
He looked over and over for a long time, and then asked without knowing what he meant: "Grandma, is there any mystery hidden in this embroidered screen? Forgive me for being stupid, I really can't see it."
Princess Fengrong said: "I've let people see it. This embroidered screen is just a cover-up. There should be something hidden in the middle.
"But this is your own business, so I only asked people to confirm it and didn't ask them to open it.
"You can take it back and think about it with Tianshu, I'm too lazy to take care of it."
Li Zian took the embroidered screen and left Princess Fengrong's room, looking over and over as he walked, but still couldn't see any clues.
Seeing this, Qinglin gave him some advice and said, "Master, why don't you go find some embroiderers to take a look?"
Li Zian thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I don't know what is hidden inside.
"What if it's really a shameful secret? Shouldn't we kill Xiu Niang to keep it a secret?
"Tell people to prepare horses and prepare to return to Tian'en Temple." Li Zian hugged the embroidered screen and couldn't wait to go back and work with Shen Tianshu to reveal the secrets inside.
However, Qinglin did not take any action after listening to his instructions. Instead, he said hesitantly: "Master, Miss Shen sent someone to send a message, saying that you are not allowed to stay in the city and go back to Tian'en Temple to spend the night. Princess, she will take care of you these days, so that you can rest assured and recover."
Li Zian didn't care about this at all. He patted the embroidered screen in his arms and said, "Today is different from usual. Didn't I go back because I had something to do with her?"
Qinglin hesitated, turning back three times every step of the way, as if waiting for Li Zian to change his mind.
"Go quickly
! "Li Zian scolded.
Qinglin was really angry when he saw him, so he trotted down to prepare his horse.
In the evening, after Shen Tianshu had dinner, he was telling Li Zihan the story of the previous miraculous doctor who healed the sick and saved people, when he heard his door being knocked lightly from outside.
Mingyu followed the sound and answered the door: "Who is it?"
"Me." Li Zian's voice came from outside the door, "Are you girls asleep?"
When Shen Tianshu heard that it was Li Zian, he stopped telling the story and his eyebrows knitted together.
Upon seeing this, Li Zihan jumped up from her bed, pulled on his shoes and slipped out.
When she opened the door, she passed by Li Zian, and she gave him a look of sympathy, as if you'd better wish for it.
Li Zian laughed and reached out to rub his sister's head.
Li Zihan saw something wrapped in cloth under his arm and thought it was a gift for Shen Tianshu. He thought to himself that it seemed that his elder brother was not stupid after all, and he knew how to buy things to make people happy.
Li Zian had no idea what was going on in his sister's little head. He walked into the house, closed the door and walked to the bed. Before Shen Tianshu could get angry, he said: "I should take good care of myself today. I shouldn't just After the fever subsided, he rushed back to the city.
"Even if there is an emergency and you have to go back to the city, you should just stay in the palace to rest and don't go back to the temple.
"I'm already sick, and I can't stand the torment like this..."
Hearing Li Zian say everything he wanted to say first, Shen Tianshu's eyes widened with anger.
After speaking, Li Zian quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, I came back in a carriage. I didn't ride a horse, and I didn't blow the wind again."
"That's right..."
As soon as Shen Tianshu opened his mouth, Li Zian stopped him and said, "There's really something going on when I come back today. Look at this."
Li Zian said as he took out the embroidered screen that he had been holding under his arm, pulled off the cloth wrapping it, and placed it in front of Shen Tianshu.
Shen Tianshu didn't understand what was going on at first glance. It wasn't until Li Zian stretched out his hand to touch on a few words that she could recite fluently that her eyes widened in shock.
"This, this is the one...you found it?" Shen Tianshu was so surprised that he was speechless.
"Yes, my grandmother sent someone to find it. She said the embroidery on the outside was just a cover-up and there should be something hidden inside, so I brought it over and let's take it apart together!"
