Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Prince Anyang did not know that after Emperor Yan woke up at night, he began to get busy.
He asked the servants to bathe and change his clothes, tidied up his appearance, and ordered the servants to tidy up rhe entire Shuanghua Palace.
At this moment, in the First Prince’s residence, Lin Xiaoyue was eating with Li Wan with a smile on her face.
“Before 1 left, 1 handed the industrial park to Head Fang. The handover was in a hurry. I don’t know if the work is going smoothly.”
Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
“I’m very confident in Head Fang’s ability to work/’
“Even if it doesn’t go well at first, it will be straightened out soon.”
“You’re already in the capital, so don’t worry about Qingshi Town. Rest well and recuperate.”
Li Wan smiled and nodded.
“After sleeping for the whole afternoon, 1 feel much better. I wonder if I can still sleep later.”
“Hehe, there won’t be any problems.”
“The journey was so long, it can’t be made up in a few hours.”
“You should sleep as usual tonight. You’ll be in good spirits when you wake up tomorrow.”
Li Wan nodded again.
She picked up the food and ate it.
The two of them chatted for a while after dinner.
Lin Xiaoyue was about to leave when the Prince Anyang arrived.
Knowing that Prince Anyang and Li Wan had something to discuss, Lin
Xiaoyue bade farewell after greeting him.
Li Wan invited the Prince Anyang to take a seat.
“If Your Highness has something to say, just say it.” Then, he smiled at Prince Anyang.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Prince Anyang’s face as he cupped his hands at Li Wan.
“Consort Shu…”
Unexpectedly, just as he said that, Li Wan stretched out her hand to stop him.
“Your Highness, please call me Madam Li.” Consort Shu? From the moment she left the Imperial Palace, there was no Consort Shu in this world.
She was Li Wan, the elder sister of Li Xiao, the son-in-law of the Liu family in Daishi Village.
Prince Anyang was stunned.
“Aunt Li…” He changed the way she addressed her.
Li Wan felt a little amused.
This person addressed her as his aunt because he was brothers with her brother.
Alright, she was his elder in name.
Li Wan nodded.
When Prince Anyang saw this, he felt a little more at ease.
“Aunt Li, my father…”
Li Wan s expression instantly darkened, causing Prince Anyang to stop talking.
After a while, Li Wan finally spoke.
“I can go see him. But 1 have conditions.”
Prince Anyang’s face lit up.
“Feel free to speak.” He quickly said.
Li Wan looked at Prince Anyang.
“I don’t care about the agreement between Li Xiao and his wife and His
Highness.”
“This trip to the capital is only for the Nangong family.”
Prince Anyang’s heart sank.
“If the Emperor wants to see me, fine. Please tell the Emperor that if he will issue an edict to clear the Nangong family’s name, 1’11 see him.” Li Wan said in a deep voice.
Yes, this was the biggest reason why she came to the capital.
Even if Prince Anyang succeeded the throne, it would not be so easy for the Nangong family to clear their name.
After all, overturning the previous Emperor’s judgment would damage the new Emperor’s reputation.
At that time, the matter had already been decided. If rhe new ruler really did not redeem the Nangong family, what could they do?
Instead of that, she might as well count on the current Emperor.
Emperor Yan had let her down and wanted to atone for his sins before he died.
Then, he should admit that he did wrong.
In this way, she could still see him one last time on account of the Nangong family.
Prince Anyang was shocked.
“This…” Fie hesitated.
His father was on the verge of death, and before he died, he still wanted to promote the Arithmetic Books just to leave a good reputation for himself.
But now, he was asked to issue an edict to admit his mistake. Would he agree?
However, even though he had such concerns, Prince Anyang was quite supportive of Consort Shu’s request.
Because if his father didn’t issue an edict to clear the Nangong family’s name, then the Nangong family would have to be punished.
In the future, when he became the Emperor, if he wanted to clear the name of the Nangong family, he would have to overturn his father’s judgment. This would have a big impact on him.
Compared to making things difficult for him, it was better to let his father sacrifice himself now.
Moreover, the Nangong family’s matter was personally orchestrated by his father.
If he didn’t remove it personally, even if he met Consort Shu, the result would probably not be pleasant.
Thinking of this, Prince Anyang once again cupped his fists at Consort Shu.
“Alright, 1 will relay your message.”
Consort Shu glanced at Prince Anyang and nodded.
“Farewell.” Prince Anyang stood up and bowed.
Then, he left.
Imperial Palace, Shuanghua Palace.
Emperor Yan had already washed up and rested. When he heard that Prince Anyang had entered the palace, he quickly sat up from the bed.
In the end, when he saw that only Prince Anyang had arrived, his eyes that were originally filled with hope instantly lost their luster..
