Chapter 747: Scheming Cousin and Cold-blooded General 23

*

Xiao Siyan won a great victory in the Mid-Autumn Palace Rebellion, all the Qi family rebels surrendered, and the third prince Xiao Yichen hanged himself on the spot.

Queen Qi was deposed and demoted to a commoner, and her life was ended by a single stroke of a white silk scarf. The Duke of Qi was stripped of his title, imprisoned, and executed in the autumn.

In just a few days, the court underwent tremendous changes. Lord Liang, who was a member of the Qi family's rebel faction, had his property confiscated and was thrown into prison. The rest of the Qi family's followers were killed or scattered.

Everyone in the capital was in danger. Those people who had currying favor with the Qi family in the past all behaved themselves and hurriedly distanced themselves from them, fearing that they would be implicated and suffer the consequences.

The emperor was protected by the imperial guards that day and did not suffer any injuries. However, after experiencing the rebellion of his own son, the emperor, who was already in poor health, fell even more ill.

But after the emperor dealt with the affairs of the Qi family, he immediately posthumously conferred the title of Queen Shuhui on the fourth prince's mother, Wei, and immediately appointed Xiao Siyan as the crown prince.

Only after the Qi family completely fell did the emperor dare to posthumously confer a title on Xiao Siyan's biological mother.

Xiao Siyan suffered some minor injuries in the rebel coup and moved to the East Palace, where only the prince could live, to recuperate. Yun Wu went to visit him every day and had been gone for three days in a row.

On the fourth day, Xiao Siyan was still half leaning on the couch, with the boiled medicine on the table beside him.

His dark eyes looked at Yun Wu eagerly, as if he was waiting for Yun Wu to feed him the medicine personally like she did in the previous three days.

Yun Wu picked up the medicine bowl, held the white porcelain spoon in her hand and slid it gently, and the porcelain spoon and bowl made a crisp and pleasant sound when they collided.

She was just about to feed Xiao Siyan the medicine when she suddenly seemed to think of something and looked at Xiao Siyan's arm suspiciously.

"It's been several days, and you still haven't seen any improvement?"

"I……"

Xiao Siyan's expression became a little hesitant, and his gaze unconsciously moved to the window over there.

Bai Zhu poked his head out of the window and made faces at Xiao Siyan. From the shape of his lips, it seemed that he was asking him to lie and say that his injury was not that minor.

Xiao Siyan looked away, slightly opened his thin lips and was about to say something but didn't, his cheeks slightly flushed.

He was not good at lying after all. He did not want to deceive Yun Wu, so he finally said honestly:

"I'm actually fine now, but... I want to spend more time with you."

Bai Shu outside the window was silently going crazy. Why didn't his prince listen to the plan he proposed? He had specially looked up the popular storybooks in the capital.

Yun Wu was stunned at first, then she couldn't help but smile and quickly put the black medicine in her hand back to its place.

"So that's how it is. Why didn't you just tell me? I'm already well but still need to take medicine. How painful it is..."

"There are still more than ten days until our wedding day."

Xiao Siyan suddenly said that since he had already said it, he would not pretend anymore. He lifted the thin quilt and sat opposite Yun Wu, staring at her with his beautiful dark eyes without blinking.

"Um……"

Yun Wu nodded slightly with a blush on her cheeks. The wedding dress and hair crown had already been delivered to the Prime Minister's Residence. Xiao Siyan had them made according to her preferences, and she liked them very much.

"Father appointed me as the crown prince a few days ago. Although I am not interested in the throne, I am the only prince under Father's knees. It is reasonable for me to take on this responsibility."

Xiao Siyan said in a deep voice that because of the old story between his father and his mother, compared with the supreme imperial power, Xiao Siyan would rather live a free and easy life with his beloved.

But the emperor was getting thinner and thinner, and his health was getting worse day by day. He didn't say anything more, but took on the burden in silence.

"Yes, I know. Then I will be the Crown Princess. Will I get a lot of money every month?"

Yun Wu asked dazedly with her pink lips slightly opened. Xiao Siyan held her hand in his, and his dark eyes became much softer when he looked at her.

"Yes, it's a lot. I'll give you my share too."

Yun Wu's cheeks flushed immediately. She coughed twice uncomfortably and nodded, but she still said seriously:

"I'm not such a greedy person. You want to give it to me."

"Well, I volunteered."

The wedding day of Xiao Siyan and Yun Wu arrived as scheduled and went very smoothly. The Crown Prince marrying the Crown Princess was a top priority, and the gifts that the Emperor ordered the Ministry of Rites to send alone filled a long street.

Such a grand and exaggerated wedding would inevitably arouse the jealousy of certain families in the capital.

But Xiao Siyan was a person who could not tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes. Anyone who gossiped about others was punished by him, and since then no one dared to express a different opinion.

The emperor was already in a state of weakened health, but he forced himself to watch Xiao Siyan and Yun Wu get married, and the depression in his heart seemed to have dissipated a lot.

Just a few months after Xiao Siyan and Yun Wu got married, the emperor fell seriously ill again, and most of the affairs in the court were left to Xiao Siyan to handle.

He seemed to know that he would not live long, so he called Xiao Siyan and Yun Wu into the palace.

At the top of the imperial study, the emperor, who was already thin, now had sunken cheeks and a pale face. He was wrapped in a thick blanket and did not look well. However, his eyes were extremely kind when he looked at Xiao Siyan and Yun Wu.

"My son, I would like to send my regards to my father."

Xiao Siyan bowed and saluted. Yun Wu, who was wearing a snow-white jacket and was raised by Xiao Siyan like a porcelain doll, also followed suit and performed the palace salute.

"My daughter-in-law pays my respects to my father."

Today is the first snow since the beginning of winter. It is freezing cold outside, but with the heater burning inside, it is just enough to not feel cold.

"Was Ah Yan really so naughty when he was a child? Did he tear off the teacher's beard?"

Yun Wu was sitting in the seat below the emperor, smiling particularly brightly. Just now, the emperor was telling her about the interesting things that happened when Xiao Siyan was a child in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Ahem... That's natural. Back then, Lord Ji secretly wrote to me every few days to tell me about Si Yan's recent situation. Not to mention that he even wet his pants."

The emperor smiled very kindly, and there was kindness and nostalgia in his eyes when he looked at Xiao Siyan, but more of it was an indescribable and inexplicable sense of guilt.

"Father..."

Xiao Siyan's stern face seemed a little embarrassed, especially when Yun Wu found out about his embarrassing childhood memories. His ears turned red instantly.

After I came out from the emperor's place, the snow outside had not stopped and a layer of snow had piled up on the ground.

Yun Wu was worrying about how to get back to the carriage on the palace road. If she walked directly to the road, her shoes and socks would get wet.

Suddenly, her whole body was lifted into the air. It turned out that Xiao Siyan carried her on his back with swift movements.

"What Father said just now...was all from my childhood when I was young and ignorant."

Xiao Siyan explained awkwardly, trying to save his image a little, but Yun Wu smiled and hugged his neck affectionately.

"But I think you were very cute when you were a child. Do you think our children will be like that in the future?"

Xiao Siyan suddenly said something in a low voice, but Yun Wu didn't hear it clearly, so he repeated it again.

"Now go back and give birth..."

This time Yun Wu heard it and also saw Xiao Siyan’s ears which had already turned red.
