“Emperor Jingxuan’s, ” Bai Xihe said.

Su Xiaoxiao nodded and thought for a moment. She looked at Bai Xihe and said, “The happy pulse isn’t yours, right?”

Bai Xihe was shocked again and looked at Su Xiaoxiao in a daze.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I once thought that other than Prince Nanyang and Emperor

Jingxuan, there was no one else who had the guts to touch you. However, Emperor Jingxuan probably won’t touch you, so if you’re pregnant, it can only be Prince Nanyang’s. On the other hand, if the child isn’t Prince Nanyang’s, the person who’s pregnant definitely won’t be you.”

Bai Xihe was surprised and Su Xiaoxiao sighed softly. “That’s right. It’s the child of my personal female official.”

Fifteen years ago, Emperor Jing Xuan was drunk and accidentally came to Zhaoyang Hall to visit Bai Xihe’s female official.

Although the women in the entire palace belonged to the emperor, there were two places where the women could not be touched.

One was the Empress Dowager’s Yongshou Palace and the other was the Grand Empress Dowager’s Zhaoyang Hall.

If Emperor Jingxuan was a tyrant who did things his own way, it would naturally not matter. However, his persona was that of a wise ruler, so he could not commit such a foolish thing.

Therefore, Imperial Physician Fu had to die.

Bai Xihe did not die because she was the Grand Empress Dowager, the last fig leaf for the late emperor who was said to have plotted to snatch the throne from his nephew.

She had to live safely to stop the crowd.

As for that female official—

Bai Xihe said, “I once went out of the palace to recuperate for a year, hoping that she could secretly give birth to the child. Unfortunately, it was difficult to give birth. She died in childbirth with the baby.”

The female official was Bai Xihe’s trusted aide. After entering the palace, she accompanied her. Their master-servant relationship was deep, and Bai Xihe sincerely hoped that the mother and son would be safe. Bai Xihe had even found a family to adopt the child.

In the end, she could not resist fate.

“Then this child…” Su Xiaoxiao was referring to the young man in the courtyard.

At this point, there was no need for Bai Xihe to hide it.

“My brother’s flesh and blood. My brother was sentenced to exile. Before he left, he entrusted me to take good care of Yan Zhi. Not long ago, my brother contacted me through the Guo family. He escaped from the exile and hid his identity in Youzhou. He asked me to think of a way to send Yan Zhi and her son over to reunite with him. However, this child has been sick recently… The matter of leaving the capital has been delayed…

Su Xiaoxiao came to the next room.

A woman two years older than Bai Xihe was feeding the young man on the bed medicine.

The woman was the Yan Zhi that Bai Xihe was referring to.

She was older than Bai Xihe’s brother by three years, and there were traces of time at the corners of his eyes.

“I’m a physician.” Su Xiaoxiao said, “Madam asked me to come over and take a look. ”

Yan Zhi’s hand trembled, and the medicine spilled.

Su Xiaoxiao’s gaze landed on Yan Zhi’s face.

Yan Zhi lowered her head in fear.

The young man said seriously, “Don’t blame my mother!” Su Xiaoxiao said, “I haven’t said anything.”

The young man choked and lowered his head in embarrassment.

Fifteen minutes later, Su Xiaoxiao came over from the next room and said to Bai Xihe, “Yan Zhi doesn’t want to leave. She tampered with his son’s medicine and prolonged his illness.”

After a pause, she said, “Your nephew knows, but Yan Zhi doesn’t know that he knows.”

Yan Zhi could not leave her stable life in the capital and did not want to rely on an exiled criminal.

The young man silently endured his mother poisoning him again and again.

This was Bai Xihe’s family matter. How Bai Xihe wanted to deal with it was not something she and Wei Ting could interfere with.

Wei Ting did not say a word from the beginning to the end, like a towering tree that silently protected a certain little fat peacock.

In the courtyard, Su Cheng finally successfully knocked Bi Wu down with all kinds of shameless moves. He used his hands and feet to lock him down.

Bi Wu did not resist.

Of course, it was very likely that the other party could not be bothered to resist.

He was tired of playing with Su Cheng.

“Daughter!”

Su Cheng had the burden of a father. As soon as his fat daughter came out, he immediately let go of Bi Wu and ended this unsightly spar.

“Are you done treating him?” he asked.

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Her nephew’s illness is fine. He’ll recover after taking a few pills.”

Su Cheng scratched his head. “Oh, is she alright? She looked very sad just now.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “It’s fine. Let’s go back, Dad.”

“Deal!

The family returned to Pear Blossom Lane.

The oil at home was gone, so Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao went out to buy it.

Just as they were about to rest, Bai Xihe came.

It was Su Cheng who opened the door.

Su Cheng asked, “Madam Bai, it’s so late. What’s the matter?”

“Ah, are you here to get medicine for your nephew?”

Bai Xihe opened her mouth and suddenly covered her lower abdomen. She fell to the ground in pain.

“Madam Bai! Madam .

Su Cheng looked at Bai Xihe, who was curled up in pain and was at a loss.

However, at the thought that she was his daughter’s patient, he still helped her in.

“The lamp oil at home is gone. It’s quite dark. Sit for a while. My daughter and son-in-law will buy the lamp oil back later.”

“I’m fine,” Bai Xihe said weakly.

Su Cheng said, “How can you be fine? You’re in so much pain… Are you injured?” Bai Xihe said weakly, “I’m not injured..

“Then you…” Su Cheng was halfway through his question when he understood something. He cleared his throat and turned to go to the kitchen. A cooking fire rose in the kitchen, its flames illuminating the narrow space.

Bai Xihe casually glanced at the man who was busy at the stove and slowly lowered her eyes.

The night was very dark and the night wind was gentle.

About half an hour later, Su Cheng brought her a bowl of steaming brown sugar ginger tea with a few red-skinned peanuts and red dates.

Bai Xihe had severe menstrual cramps and drank brown sugar water in the palace, but no one would use so many ingredients.

It was not that one could not afford to add those items, but most did not think of adding them at all.

“Is it Physician Su’s prescription?” she asked.

Su Cheng looked at the sugar water in her hand.

“You’re talking about this? It’s not a prescription. It’s just that Daya’s mother used to be like you. Every month… ahem, her tummy hurts. She only drank brown sugar water, but she found it greasy and added ginger. She also found it spicy. Later on, I added some red dates and red-skinned peanuts, and she liked to drink it.”

Su Cheng was a culinary idiot who could roast sweet potatoes into dark cuisine, but the brown sugar ginger tea stewed for his wife had an unforgettable taste.

Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting returned home after buying lamp oil and realized that Bai Xihe was also there.

The two of them were very surprised.

They looked at her and then at Su Cheng.

Su Cheng said, “Madam Bai isn’t feeling well, so she came to look for you.”

Su Xiaoxiao sniffed. “Dad, did you make brown sugar water?”

Su Cheng said, “That’s right. Madam Bai… Ah, you bought the lamp oil, right?

I’ll go hold the lamp!”

He carried a jar of lamp oil in his hand and left without looking back!

Bai Xihe looked at Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting indifferently. “You… actually want to know my relationship with Prince Nanyang, right? Alright, I’ll tell you..”
