"The Emperor has arrived!" Su Peisheng announced loudly, and several people walked into the main hall.

“Brother Your Majesty, I give you…” When Prince Guo saw that it was the emperor, he hurriedly stood up and saluted, but was stopped by the emperor.

"Since you are ill, there is no need to observe etiquette." The emperor spoke and came to Prince Guo.

"How are you, Your Highness?" An Lingrong followed behind and still noticed a hint of panic that flashed across Prince Guo's face, so she also smiled and greeted him.

"My brother and the Empress Chen are in such a good mood today. Why did you suddenly think of coming to Qingliang Terrace?"

King Guo nodded at An Lingrong. Although he was smiling, there was a hint of discomfort on his face.

"I wanted to summon you to the palace yesterday. They said you were sick. Thinking that the snow had melted, I came to see you. You still look sick, but you seem to be in good spirits." The emperor sat on the Arhat bed with a look of concern on his face.

"Thank you very much for your concern, my emperor." Prince Guo said with a smile. An Lingrong sat down and looked towards Prince Guo and the emperor, and soon noticed the look in Prince Guo's eyes.

His eyes would always intentionally or unintentionally glance at the screen behind him, and An Lingrong knew that there must be something behind the screen that he didn't want them to know...

What would it be that you didn't want them to know?

"Everyone says your Qingliang Terrace is great. Today, I found it to be really great. Just now, the Concubine Chen was fascinated by the scenery at the door."

The emperor's voice broke An Lingrong's thoughts. An Lingrong came back to her senses and nodded to Prince Guo with a smile.

"The scenery of this Qingliang Terrace is really nice. The snowy scenery in winter is so beautiful. I wonder how beautiful it will be in autumn..." An Lingrong spoke, but Prince Guo smiled.

"Your Highness the Concubine is right. The most beautiful time here is autumn. At that time, the whole mountain is full of different colors, a scene that even painters cannot depict. When the time comes, my royal brother, come to Qingliangtai with Your Highness the Concubine to enjoy the autumn scenery together..." Prince Guo said with a smile and looked at the emperor.

"That's good, of course. But I think your Qingliang Terrace is good in every way except that it lacks a hostess." The emperor agreed with a smile, but he still thought about Prince Guo's marriage.

"Your Majesty is right. I have heard that many noble ladies in the capital are waiting for the prince to say that they agree to the marriage."

An Lingrong followed the emperor in joking, and the emperor smiled and nodded, but Prince Guo's expression was helpless yet with a hint of sweetness.

"Thank you for your concern, Her Majesty. I still want to find someone I like. If I meet her one day, I will make her the mistress of Qingliangtai and take care of her for the rest of my life." Prince Guo had a smile on his face, and you could tell he was sincere.

"Your Majesty, based on what the prince said, it's no wonder that all the noble ladies in the capital are interested in you. Who doesn't want to be loved by their husband for life? I'm here to wish you that your wish will come true soon."

An Lingrong also smiled and started to congratulate. After hearing this, the emperor looked at An Lingrong, and there was a hint of affection in his eyes.

"Then I would like to borrow the good words from Her Majesty the Concubine." Upon hearing this, Prince Guo couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"Look how happy Old Seventeen is. When you find a woman you love, I must see with my own eyes what kind of person you will find." The emperor smiled as he looked at Prince Guo. Prince Guo still had a smile on his face, but he looked less calm.

"Is this Longyue?" Prince Guo saw the nanny behind Concubine Li holding a little girl, and changed the topic.

"Yes, Zhen has been away from the palace for two years, and Longyue is also two years old." The emperor sighed, and his expression became a little gloomy.

He once thought that Zhen was dispensable, but these days, An Lingrong's voice alone could not satisfy his longing for Queen Chunyuan. A few days ago, he could not even remember Chunyuan's face clearly. He was a little scared...

He was afraid that one day he would really forget what Chun Yuan looked like, so he wanted to try his luck here. Along the way, he was thinking of reasons to go to Ganlu Temple, but he didn't expect...

Fortunately, there is a cool terrace nearby where he can come, otherwise he would not even have an excuse to leave the palace...

"Seventeenth Uncle, how is it?" Longyue spoke, her tone a little timid.

"Hello, Longyue." Prince Guo looked at Longyue with a smile and a gentle tone. Because looking at Longyue, he felt like seeing a little Zhen Huan, and he felt that she was exceptionally lovely.

“Mother.” Longyue called out, and An Lingrong heard a faint voice behind the screen, but it was not very real...

"Yes, mother, hold me." Concubine Li agreed and took Longyue from the nanny's arms.

"This is Concubine Li, right? You take really good care of Longyue." Prince Guo smiled. Concubine Li nodded but said nothing.

An Lingrong looked at Concubine Li, trying to read something from her face, but found it difficult to do so. Her expression remained the same, without any trace of sadness or joy, and she still looked calm...

"How do you feel now? I will send the imperial physician to check on you when I get back." The emperor said as he patted Prince Guo on the shoulder.

"Royal brother, no need. Imperial Doctor Wen has already examined me. I will be fine after two more days of rest." Prince Guo said hurriedly, and only then did he realize that he seemed to have said something wrong.

"Has Imperial Physician Wen been here?" the Emperor asked doubtfully, and An Lingrong was also shocked.

“Yes, I had a sudden high fever the night before yesterday, so I went to find Doctor Wen who was not on duty.

I should have reported this to my brother first, but the situation was urgent and I was a little panicked. I hope my brother will not blame me..."

Prince Guo's face froze for a moment, then he quickly began to explain.

"Of course I won't blame you. If something like this happens again, just go to the palace to ask the imperial physician. The most important thing is that the person is fine..."

The emperor spoke, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled. An Lingrong saw clearly what the emperor was thinking just now...

"Take care of yourself. I dare not tell the Queen Mother about this, for fear that she will worry. You must get better soon. It is almost the New Year. When you recover, go and pay your respects to the Queen Mother so that she can rest assured." The Emperor instructed like a real brother, and Prince Guo nodded...

"I'll remember this. When I get better, I'll go pay my respects to the Queen Mother as soon as possible." Prince Guo spoke. The Emperor patted him on the shoulder and nodded in a good mood.

"I have been busy with government affairs and have been out for some time. I am relieved to see that you are okay. It is time for me to go back now." The emperor stood up and said goodbye. An Lingrong and Concubine Li also stood up.
