"Yes, Imperial Grandmother rest assured, Lingqi will protect her younger brother!" Ouyang Lingqi said seriously, "Grandmother is tired, let's sleep for a while!"

"Good. The Empress Dowager seemed to let go of a worry, closed her eyes and rested with peace of mind, her breathing became steady, but she was still very weak.

"Yanling, what's wrong?" Ning'er was brought over by the wind, and when she saw Shen Yanling standing in the house, she hurriedly asked.

"You're here, the Empress Dowager is sick, you can show her quickly!" Shen Yanling saw Ning Er coming, a trace of joy appeared on her face, and she pulled Ning Er to the Empress Dowager's side.

Ning Er was stunned when she heard this, but when she saw the old man lying weakly, as the instinct of a doctor, Ning Er took the hand of the Empress Dowager and checked her pulse. After a while, Ning Er let go of the old man's hand, and Shen Yanling waited for Ning Er to speak with hope, but saw Ning Er gently shake her head and said, "It's too late!"

"Ning'er, what are you talking about?, what's too late?" asked Shen Yanling.

Ning Er sighed, she was just a doctor, she didn't have the ability to bring the dead back to life, if the Empress Dowager's illness had been saved a year earlier, now, she couldn't do anything. "After almost 30 years of depression, I will protect her for three years at most. Ning'er sighed, not that she didn't want to save it, but that she really couldn't save it.

"Is it only three years?" Shen Yanling said in a low voice.

Ning Er didn't answer, sat down at the table, picked up the pen and wrote the prescription, and the three brothers behind her silently looked at the sleeping grandmother.

Ning Er handed the prescription to Feng to grab the medicine, glanced at the sleeping old man, and motioned for the three of them to talk outside the house.

"Yanling, I understand your feelings, this is also the reason why I don't like to be a doctor, many times, seeing patients in pain and powerless, that feeling, more difficult than others. It's just that you should understand that the Empress Dowager is a heart disease, and she has suffered for so many years, and for her, life may be even harder!" Ning Er said calmly.

Ouyang Lingqi was heartbroken, Ning Er was right, for grandmother, maybe it was really harder to live.

"You don't have to be too discouraged, I'm using her current situation to deduce, heart disease still needs heart medicine, although it's too late, but if you are in a good mood, maybe you can live a few more years. Yanling, if you have a chance to bring Ah Zheng and Ah Ping to meet her!Especially Ah Ping, she should be much more relaxed when she sees her!" Ning Er said with relief, clapped her hands and walked outside the palace and said, "You brothers talk slowly, I have to go back to see my baby brother!"

After Ning'er left, the three of them sat down in the hall and were silent for a long time before Ouyang Lingxi said to Shen Yanling: "Brother, it turns out that you are also Jiu'er's imperial brother! No wonder Jiu'er feels close to you when she sees you! Brother, is what my sister-in-law said true? Is it that Jiu'er is angry with the imperial grandmother, so she will get sick?"

"It's not you, it's the royal brother's fault. It is the imperial brother who does not take good care of you, and the imperial grandmother will be worried. Ouyang Lingqi pounded the table, hating his incompetence like this for the first time.

"Big brother, you are already very good! Tomorrow I will invite my grandmother to bring the two children into the palace! Grandmother and the imperial grandmother were like sisters back then, and they should also come to visit the imperial grandmother. Shen Yanling said, "There is something I haven't had time to tell you, Ah Ping is not born to me and Ning'er, your concubine Jiang tried her best to save the child, but my younger brother has been helping you take care of it! ”

"What did you say, that kid didn't die?" Ouyang Lingqi had a look of surprise on his face.

"Naturally. That kid is pitiful, when Ning'er and I brought him back, he was so cold that his whole body turned purple, but fortunately, he was safe. Don't make a noise about this beforehand, and when this matter is resolved, I will send the child back. Shen Yanling explained.

Ouyang Lingqi was first surprised, and then showed a bitter smile, "I'm really useless, I couldn't protect my brother back then, and now, I can't even protect my wife and children!"

"Brother Huang, don't say that, you are a good emperor, Jiu'er knows. Jiu'er knows, you don't blame you for the matter of the concubine, Jiu'er knows that the palace is a terrible place, but Jiu'er has always been very happy, because the imperial grandmother and the imperial brother have always protected Jiu'er. Now that my brother is here, we are good brothers, royal brothers, and we will all get better. Ouyang Lingxi comforted Ouyang Lingqi and said.

"Yes, a qiē will be fine, a qiē has been deployed, and when the time comes, you can catch it all, and then you should be able to live a few days in peace! It seems that the queen gave birth to the third prince, and now he is five years old, you send someone to protect him, no matter what the queen wants to do, the child is always innocent." Well, your prince should have settled on it sooner. Shen Yanling said.

Ouyang Lingqi tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "Your topic is really getting really fast! However, it is indeed time to establish a prince early." What do you think, Zijun?"

Shen Yanling nodded, "I think it's good, if my father had directly appointed you as the crown prince, there wouldn't have been so many things!"

"Why, your father gave you the position of crown prince, and you are still not satisfied? others can't ask for it!" Ouyang Lingqi said with a smile.

"You don't have to play dumb. My family is not as good as you, my unborn brother died inexplicably, my father should have understood, if you were made the prince at that time, maybe my mother would not die, and even other princes in the future would not die, and we and the third brother would not have come to this point!"

"Is it really Lingchen? He, really do this?" Ouyang Lingqi asked, although he knew that Ouyang Lingchen was not really close to him, but he didn't want him to go to the opposite side of himself or even the country.

"It's him! After planning for more than ten years, he should be fully prepared! Uncle Jiang is too, just under his nose, he has never found anything. Shen Yanling said.

Ouyang Lingxi didn't quite understand what the two brothers were talking about, but the two brothers believed him, which made him very happy.

"Yanling, now it seems that I owe you more and more, and I don't know how to repay you, so it's better to give you this throne!" Ouyang Lingqi joked with a smile.

Shen Yanling raised her eyebrows and said, "If you do this, you will be an unqualified king, and I can exercise the power of the secret door, you say, who should I appoint as the king?"

"Count you ruthless!" Ouyang Lingqi gritted his teeth and said.

"Each other!" Shen Yanling stood up, "Ning'er is going to see her baby brother, I have to go back to see the child earlier." You'd better not worry about me for anything, if Ning'er takes the child back to her parents' house in a fit of anger, I will tie you up and make amends to my daughter-in-law!"

"Oh, my brother is so good to my sister-in-law!" Ouyang Lingxi said with envy.

Ouyang Lingqi glanced at Ouyang Lingxi and said, "He has a daughter-in-law, don't want a brother, Jiu'er, don't learn from him!"

"Why, lady, isn't it just for pain?" Ouyang Lingxi opened a pair of innocent big eyes, looked at Ouyang Lingqi and said, "In the future, if Jiu'er marries the princess, she will be as good as her brother is to her sister-in-law!" Ouyang Lingqi was so angry that he pounded the table behind him: "Why can you all be happy together as a family, I have to face such a big palace every day!"

The emperor left in a hurry, and the banquet naturally could not be held any longer, and the queen could only dismiss the meeting early, but Shen Yanling attracted her attention and immediately ordered someone to check Shen Yanling's details.

The next day, Mrs. Shen Taifu took Ah Zheng, Ah Ping and Yutang into the palace. When Mrs. Shen was young, she and the Empress Dowager were very good close friends, so the Empress Dowager liked Shen Qinghe very much, and Shen Qinghe became the queen, and she was also happy to see it. Later, Shen Qinghe died tragically, and Mrs. Shen lost her beloved daughter, although she didn't say it explicitly, but how much of her heart was the Queen Mother. The Empress Dowager also felt sorry for Mrs. Shen, and the two had little contact since then. Last night, Shen Yanling mentioned that the Empress Dowager was seriously ill and asked her to bring her children into the palace to meet her, and Mrs. Shen was shocked to realize that they had not seen each other for more than 20 years. Although she resented her a little in her heart, so many years have passed, in the end, she is still a good sister who grew up together, and she can't bear not to see it.

And in the Taifu Mansion, an uninvited guest was ushered in at this time, the prince of Duanwang.

Shen Yanling has no official position now, she doesn't need to go to the early court, and she doesn't have anything to do in the secret door today, so she accompanies her wife at home. Hearing that Duanwang Shizi was visiting, he went to the front hall with Ning Er to meet the guests.

Ouyang Wei, the prince of Duanwang, saw Shen Yanling and his wife coming, and hurriedly got up to greet him. Shen Yanling and Ning Er stepped forward together and saluted, "I didn't know that the prince of the world was coming, and I missed the welcome, and I asked the prince to forgive my sins." ”

"Where, Shi Wei took the liberty to visit today, please don't mind. Ouyang Wei is still as warm as jade.

Ning Er looked at the two of them politely, rolled her eyes in her heart, and said in her heart that Wang Shizi knew that he was presumptuous, why did he still run to the house, and he had nothing to do. At this time, Ning'er played the role of a good wife, and hurriedly ordered her subordinates to bring tea.

Ning Er guessed that this Wang Shizi came today, mostly for yesterday's qin music, since Shen Yanling said that this person is a piano idiot, although Ning Er didn't realize that this person would be a simple piano idiot, but since he wanted to be an idiot, this trip was going to run. So Ning'er asked people to copy the score early, if he came, give it to him, Ning'er didn't want to entangle with him. Sure enough, soon Ouyang Wei mentioned the music of the qin, and Ning'er ordered someone to hand the score to Ouyang Wei.

"Mrs. Shen is a master of the piano, she must be very fond of music, Wei has always loved music, but it is rare to meet a bosom friend......" Ouyang Wei said with some regret.

Ning Er frowned slightly, this Ouyang Wei always gave himself a strange feeling, for example, at this time, although he was talking to himself, Yu Guang looked at Shen Yanling, as if he was observing Shen Yanling's attitude. Sure enough, Shen Yanling's brows furrowed slightly, but she didn't say anything, Ning Er noticed a look of appreciation on Ouyang Wei's face, and she confirmed Ning Er's conjecture even more. Ning Er didn't know what this Ouyang Wei wanted to do, but she didn't want to cause misunderstanding among others, and said, "I don't like it much, it's just that the master is strict." It's ashamed to say that it's just a trick, and the son doesn't have to take it to heart. As for the bosom friend, Yu Boya Zhongzi period, although it is rumored to be a good talk, not everyone has the opportunity to have it. ”
