"Okay, it's getting late. I have to go back. You should go to bed early." Lu Liang touched his daughter's face slightly and stood up.
"I'll give it to my mother." Yaoyao put the box down and stood up.
When she got outside the door, Lu Liangwei stopped her, "There's not much to go, so there's no need to see her off. You can go to bed quickly."
"Well, mother, be careful on the road and go to bed early when you get back." Yaoyao said with concern.
Lu Liang nodded slightly, held the palace attendant's hand, and left Lihua Palace.
As soon as Lu Liangwei left, Yaoyao ran to He Xin's room.
The first time she came to Kuishui, He Xin felt very uncomfortable. She lay on the bed and dared not move for fear of leakage. In addition, her waist was sore and swollen, making it impossible for her to sleep.
When Yaoyao entered, she was taking a book and reading it.
"Why are you here? Has Aunt Weiwei gone back?" Seeing her come in, He Xin was a little surprised and moved, wanting to get out of bed.
Yaoyao quickly stopped her, "If you don't feel well, don't get up."
He Xin had no choice but to lie back, then patted the bed and said, "Do you want to come up?"
"Okay." Yaoyao kicked off her shoes and climbed inside.
Seeing the joy in her eyes, He Xin's heart moved and asked, "Have you told Aunt Weiwei?"
Yaoyao came over with a smile and pinched her face, "You can't hide anything from your eyes."
He Xin smiled and said, "Aunt Weiwei agrees, right?"
Yaoyao lay down next to her and said with some melancholy: "The Queen Mother doesn't object very much, but my father is having a hard time. Ji'er hasn't come back yet, and I didn't want to tell the Queen Mother at first. It was the Queen Mother who saw it. The pigeon on the porch noticed it, and then asked."
"Don't worry, Ji'er will be back soon, and the emperor's uncle will also agree to your marriage to our emperor. After all, our emperor is also a rare and outstanding person." He Xin comforted.
"Yes." Yaoyao nodded, "Anyway, I have talked it over with my mother, and I feel a lot more relaxed." Before, she was worried about Ji'er's disappearance, so she didn't dare to tell her mother, but now she and her mother are all worried about it. Having said that, she felt really relieved.
The two of them stood next to each other and talked a lot about each other before falling asleep.
…
Lu Liangwei did not give up on pretending to be sick.
The next day, she went to find Long Yin again. After some hard work, Long Yin finally agreed.
"Mother, I can issue an edict, but it may not be effective."
Lu Liang was silent for a moment and said, "Why don't you say in the edict that I passed away because I became ill with worry. Ji'er will definitely believe it."
Long Yinjun's face turned pale, his voice became a little darker, and he yelled: "Mother!"
Lu Liang patted his shoulder slightly and said with a smile: "It's not true. Why did you react so bigly?"
"Father will not joke about your safety, and neither will my son. Please mother, please stop joking about this kind of thing." Long Yin's face was solemn, and he was very unhappy.
Seeing that his son was angry, Lu Liangwei quickly suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Yin'er, this is just a temporary measure and a white lie. The gods will definitely understand me and will not really take my life. Be obedient, issue an edict quickly, and inform the world."
Long Yinjun's face turned pale. He didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but he didn't dare to joke about his mother's life and death.
"Yin'er, if Ji'er can't come back safely, I will be very sad. You must not see me sad, right?" Seeing that his son was still hesitating, Lu Liang pushed his arm slightly and said softly, " And your father, he will live in self-blame and regret for the rest of his life." After a pause, "You must not have noticed that your father has gray hair on his head. He stayed up all night because of Jill's matter. I couldn't sleep all night, and I looked very haggard and old... "
