The news that the Fourth Prince Lin Yu's leg had recovered spread quickly.

People in Kyoto were talking about it. Since this matter was related to Princess An Ning, Lin Wanwan, the rumors in the palace that Princess An Ning had a connection with the immortal became more credible.

As a result, every household in Kyoto city burned incense, as if praying for a bit of immortal energy.

On this day, Lin Yu, dressed in gorgeous clothes and with a noble temperament, followed by a group of servants carrying various precious gifts, came to the An Ning County Princess's Mansion in a grand manner.

As soon as Lin Yu arrived at the gate of the Princess's Mansion, he saw someone kneeling at the gate and making a wish.

He was slightly startled, walked forward and asked, "What are you doing?"

The man raised his head and said devoutly, "Your Highness, I am making a wish. I heard that kneeling outside Princess An Ning's mansion and making a wish is most effective."

Lin Yu looked at this person and was surprised. He did not expect that Princess An Ning's influence was so great now.

When Nanny Li got the news, she respectfully welcomed Lin Yu into the mansion.

Lin Wanwan was lazily lying with one hand on her forehead. She was wearing only a long white dress, the hem of which hung down to the ground as lightly as a cloud. Only a light blue ribbon was tied around her waist, outlining her slender waist.

However, despite her simple dress, Lin Yu still found her extremely charming.

"Princess, the Fourth Prince is here." Nanny Li reminded from the side.

Lin Wanwan turned her gaze to Lin Yu. Her eyes were as clear as autumn water, and her slightly upturned eyes had a hint of unintentional charm that made people want to touch her.

In addition, Lin Wanwan missed Bai Lan a little these days, so she lit sandalwood in the room, and the original cold fragrance on her body was tainted with a hint of sandalwood.

The afterword is long...

Lin Yu calmed himself down, walked forward, bowed slightly and said:

"An Ning, I came here today to thank you for this kick."

Lin Wanwan smiled faintly and motioned Lin Yu to sit down: "Madame Li, please count the Fourth Prince's gifts and put them in the treasury."

Nanny Li nodded: "Yes, Princess."

Then she went out and asked a few skillful servants to start counting the gifts of thanks.

Fen Tao also quickly placed the snacks on the table and stepped aside.

After Lin Yu sat down, he said with emotion: "Princess, my leg has healed after taking those pills for many years. I didn't expect that the princess would kick it and it would heal.

If I had known this earlier, I would have just let the princess play around instead of spending a lot of money every year to attend some magical medicine conference late at night."

After hearing this, Lin Wanwan smiled slightly and asked, "What is the Immortal Medicine Conference?"

Lin Yu picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said slowly:

"They are all quacks who make pills. They hold a meeting every year. To join, you need to pay two thousand taels of silver."

Lin Yu looked at Lin Wanwan again and asked, "Is the princess interested in going together?"

Lin Wanwan shook her head slightly and said, "I'm not interested."

Lin Yu was not discouraged, and continued: "They said that all beings are equal and can participate. I think they are not as effective as the princess."

Lin Wanwan laughed after hearing this and said, "If all beings are truly equal, why would you charge me two thousand taels of silver?"

Lin Yu was choked and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

Then, he added, “The last time I attended, I also met people from Doctor Situ’s family. They have a very high status in the alchemy gathering.”

Lin Wanwan became interested when she heard this. She frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then said, "When?"

"A month later."

"In that case, I'll go with you to take a look."

Lin Yu was delighted, he knew that with Lin Wanwan going along, this Immortal Medicine Conference would definitely be more exciting.

After a brief silence, Lin Yu drank a sip of tea, tilted his head slightly, and said to Lin Wanwan:

"There is one more thing. When Lin Meihua was punished that day, the Queen Mother became so angry that she became ill. I went to see her this morning and mentioned that I came to thank the Princess."

Seeing that Lin Wanwan was silent, Lin Yu said again: "The Queen Mother hopes that you will come to the palace to take care of her."

Lin Wanwan nodded slightly: "Okay."

The two of them entered the palace together. When the palace maids and eunuchs on both sides of the corridor saw them, they all bowed to them.

Especially when looking at Lin Wanwan, their faces and eyes revealed sincere respect.

In the Queen Mother's bedroom.

Situ Liufeng was concentrating on treating the empress dowager. The palace maids and eunuchs around her stood quietly by, not daring to make a sound.

Suddenly, the voices of the palace maids greeting came from outside, "Princess An Ning, Fourth Prince."

Situ Liufeng was slightly startled and subconsciously turned his head to look.

At that moment, he saw Lin Wanwan. Her long hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, gently tied up with a simple jade hairpin. A few strands of hair naturally fell beside her cheeks, adding a bit of softness.

Situ Liufeng's heart was suddenly filled with waves.

Lin Yu walked into the room and asked with concern:

"How is the Queen Mother's condition?"

Situ Liufeng came back to his senses, bowed slightly and replied:

"Don't worry, Fourth Prince. The Queen Mother is fine. Just drink some tranquilizing medicine and rest for a few days."

The Queen Mother heard the noise, slowly opened her eyes, and saw Lin Wanwan.

Lin Wanwan took the medicine from the old nanny, walked lightly to the bedside, and then sat down slowly.

She carefully scooped up a spoonful of medicine, blew on it gently, and then brought it to the Queen Mother's mouth.

The Queen Mother also smelled the sandalwood scent on her body and looked at Lin Wanwan with emotion in her eyes:

"I didn't realize your goodness before, and you suffered so much for so many years."

Lin Wanwan smiled slightly and said softly: "The Queen Mother is too serious. Let the past be the past."

Then she continued to feed the Queen Mother medicine patiently.

After feeding the medicine, the Queen Mother took Lin Wanwan's hand and said sincerely:

"An Ning, I am going to select a beauty contest for Xiao He. I hope you can come and take a look at which women have good luck."

Lin Wanwan shook her head slightly and said, "Queen Mother, as long as the new emperor likes it, it's all good."

The Queen Mother sighed and said, "Xiao He has poor taste. If he had liked you earlier, why would he marry you..."

Having said that, the Queen Mother naturally understood that Lin Wanwan had no power in the past, and it was too late to regret now.

At this moment, Lin Xiaohe hurried over and heard these words. He felt uncomfortable.

After a moment of silence.

Lin Xiaohe also said: "An Ning, I hope you can come and see those beauties together."

Lin Wanwan still refused. It was none of her business how the talent show was chosen.

She bowed slightly and said, "I'm not good at this, please find someone else."

"install……"

Lin Wanwan raised her cold eyes, and Lin Xiaohe stopped talking.

He looked at her face which always had a hint of alienation, and felt a little overwhelmed for a moment.

Lin Wanwan stood up and when she passed by Lin Xiaohe, a faint scent of sandalwood quietly drifted into Lin Xiaohe's nose.

Lin Xiaohe was slightly startled, and subconsciously turned his head to look, only to see Lin Wanwan's figure gradually moving away.

Situ Liufeng looked at Lin Wanwan's departing back, his heart moved, and he quickly bowed to the Queen Mother and chased after her.

He walked a few steps and found Lin Wanwan. She was standing there quietly, looking at him, as if she was also waiting for him.

Situ Liufeng was extremely happy. He walked up to her and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you have to fulfill your promise."

Lin Wanwan frowned slightly, and then said:

"If you and I have a child for corpse transformation, you should never think about it. It will be too painful for the child to live."

Situ Liufeng leaned close to her ear and said, "Sister-in-law, whether my child is bitter or not, you will know it only after you taste it."

Lin Wanwan glared at him when she heard that.

Situ Liufeng looked aggrieved: "Sister-in-law is angry with me again."

Lin Wanwan said bluntly: "The pill for a man to have a baby. Can you make it?"

"Of course... I can." Situ Liufeng's expression was extremely serious:

"Sister-in-law, if you need it, I'll give it to you later. I'm not free these days. I have something important to do."

"event?"

Situ Liufeng smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, there is no need to ask so many questions. This is my private matter."

Lin Wanwan just said, "Okay."

When Lin Wanwan turned around and was about to leave, Situ Liufeng grabbed her sleeve, and only his hoarse voice could be heard:

"Princess...if I don't do those things, will I still have a chance?"

"possible."

Situ Liufeng was distracted when he heard this, and unconsciously loosened his hand. Then the corners of his mouth slowly rose, his eyes flashed with joy, and a warm current surged in his heart.

He stood there quietly, his eyes following Lin Wanwan's receding figure.

He knew that although Lin Wanwan did not explicitly agree to have a child with him, her words revealed a hint of hope for the future.

She wasn't rejecting him outright.

……

Three days later, the new emperor Lin Xiaohe was wearing a gorgeous dragon robe, a crown on his head, and sitting on the high dragon throne.

His eyes were firm and deep, his face was solemn, and he exuded the majesty of an emperor.

Under the main hall, the ministers were lined up in an orderly manner. They were dressed in court robes and had solemn expressions.

The civil officials held tablets in their hands, and the military generals stood straight, everyone was waiting for the new emperor's first morning court.

With the sound of a melodious bell, the morning court officially began.

All the ministers knelt on the ground and shouted: "Long live the emperor!" The sound echoed in the hall, shaking people's hearts.

Lin Xiaohe raised his hand slightly: "Everyone, please stand up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The ministers stood up.

Ouyang Qingyu was wearing a brand new imperial robe, with his sleeves fluttering in the wind, showing his majesty.

He stepped forward steadily, saluted respectfully to the new emperor Lin Xiaohe, and said:

"Your Majesty, I have just been appointed as the Grand Master, and I feel a great sense of responsibility. Now that Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, you should put the country first. Recruiting concubines can continue the royal bloodline and stabilize the foundation of the country."

Then, he raised his head slightly, looked at Lin Xiaohe with firm eyes, waiting for Lin Xiaohe's response.

Lin Xiaohe sat upright on the dragon chair. After a moment, he slowly spoke: "What the Grand Master said makes sense."

Ouyang Qingyu bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty is wise. I am only thinking about your Majesty and the country. I hope your Majesty will consider it."

The ministers stood on both sides, each with a different look on their face, but all revealed a tacit understanding. They all knew in their hearts that what Ouyang Qingyu said in the hall at this time was just a formality.

All the noble families and important officials in the court knew that His Majesty was going to hold a beauty contest.

This news had already spread quietly in their circle.

Lin Gao was in the court, looking at the row of military generals.

Xuanyue Kingdom originally valued culture over military power, but due to constant invasions from Zijin Kingdom on the border, military generals were gradually given more importance.

Now that Wang Luda and Lu Mu are no longer in the court, Wang Sha has instead been able to stand at the forefront of the military generals.

He was secretly delighted in his heart and decided to show off the grenade as a weapon on an important occasion to make everyone tremble and think that he was much more useful than Lin Xiaohe.
