Chapter 61 Mo Jingyu: I Must Follow and Take Care of the Little Lady

"Hmm, our Dong Ju actually knows about the difference between clouds and mud. It seems your knowledge has improved!" Xiaoyao turned her head and said.

"That... the servant also overheard something else!" Dong Ju said, her face turning red.

At the entrance of Fu Shou Palace, Baiyu stood holding his long sword. Hearing Dong Ju's words, his hand twitched, and finally, he helplessly turned around and walked to the center of the courtyard.

"What does that mean?" Nanny Jin asked Dong Ju.

"It means that Baiyu and I were secretly watching General Shangguan at his mistress's place..." Dong Ju said, her face flushed.

"Enough, no more talk. This little girl doesn't know any shame!" Nanny Qin walked over with a stern face and scolded softly.

"Anyway, we didn't hear much, just that General Shangguan... he can't perform anymore!" Dong Ju finished and immediately ran out.

This left everyone in the room feeling somewhat awkward.

"Haha, this must be Uncle's doing. On the full moon banquet day, Uncle had someone set fire, and it burned well, scorching that scoundrel's crotch!" Baby Ruo Xi thought, finding it amusing. That hypocrite must be regretting it now.

"Cough, cough..."

The emperor lightly coughed to ease the awkwardness in the hall.

"Get yourselves ready properly. You two, mother and daughter, should go out as well. The matters in the Imperial City will be handled by me!" The empress dowager said indifferently.

Having been immersed in the palace for decades, she had encountered countless storms. Her temperament had long been tempered into calmness.

"If we leave, those who want to harm the Empress Dowager will surely come again. We need to find a good antidote for her to protect her!"

Baby Ruo Xi thought and went searching in the space.

Fortunately, in recent days, her uncle and the Empress Dowager had given her many good things. She played with them, absorbing a lot of spiritual energy, and thus, two layers of the nine-story pagoda had opened.

Baby Ruo Xi's mind went to the second floor and found a pill box.

Naturally, Baby Ruo Xi didn't realize that every time she wanted to give a pill, her mother and uncle were very supportive.

Just as her small hand held the pill, Wen Xu arrived with nourishing soup medicine. Her mother took the pill and presented it right in front of her, and with a wave of her small hand...

While her imperial uncle was talking with Wen Xu, the Empress Dowager interjected, so no one "saw" Baby Ruo Xi's actions.

The Empress Dowager drank the soup and felt comfortable, praising Wen Xu directly.

"This medicine makes my heart feel better. Wen Xu, your medical skills truly surpass those of your father!" The Empress Dowager finished, glanced at the baby girl in the cradle, and said, "There will be a reward!"

"Serving the royal family is an honor for my Wen family. Your Majesty, I have already received many rewards; there's no need to give Wen Xu another one!" Wen Xu immediately replied.

It was just a bowl of soup like any other, without anything added, yet the Empress Dowager wanted to reward him, which surprised him greatly!

"Mother says you'll be rewarded, so accept it. It won't be anything too valuable. Mother keeps all her good things for Yue'er!" Xiaoyao said from the side.

Wen Xu had grown up with her, and although they hadn't seen each other for five or six years, they still felt close now.

"Alright, then I'll accept it." Wen Xu smiled and took out a jade pendant, saying, "Princess, this is blood jade from the Western Regions. Father received it as a gift from a friend when he was there. It's said that the master soaked it in medicine for years, which has a calming effect. Father continued soaking it in medicine after returning. Yesterday, he took it out to give it to the little lady!"

"Huh, what a fragrant medicinal smell. This jade is really good!" Baby Ruo Xi clenched her small fist and turned her head towards Wen Xu: "Hmm, this Imperial Physician Wen is really nice. If he were my father, how wonderful!"

The Empress Dowager glanced at her son, seeing a smile on his lips. She lowered her eyelids, having some thoughts.

"Such a fine thing, how could the Chief Imperial Physician bear to part with it? I remember when we were young, we stole and drank his medicinal wine, which made him furious, chasing us and even threatening to disown you!" Xiaoyao said with a laugh.

"That wine was made from herbs collected during his travels. Naturally, he was angry when we drank it. Moreover, Father said that drinking it could cause blood vessels to burst, so he chased us to make us sweat it out, reducing its potency!" Wen Xu explained immediately.

"Yes, the Chief Imperial Physician is indeed a good person," Xiaoyao nodded.

The blood jade soaked in herbs was placed in Ruo Xi's hands, surprising her greatly.

"Blood jade from Lingtai? Such precious blood jade? This is truly a treasure!" Baby Ruo Xi was delighted, holding onto the blood jade tightly.

Invisible spiritual energy flowed from her palm into her body.

Meanwhile, Xiaoyao and the others were all prepared.

Baby Ruo Xi had dozens of outfits ready, made overnight by the Fashion Bureau and packed into a large chest.

"Sister!" Xiao Ruilin grabbed his sister's small hand, looking at her with reluctance.

"Lin'er, study hard and listen to the Empress Dowager in the palace. Study diligently and behave well, and you'll learn many skills to protect your sister in the future!" Xiaoyao said.

"Okay!" Xiao Ruilin nodded, turning to see the boy they brought back from Ganye Temple walking over.

His face and body still bore scars, but the imperial medicine treated by Wen Xu helped him recover quickly.

Moreover, Xiaoyao noticed that the child had a strong self-healing ability.

Xiaoyao was certain that her daughter hadn't given him any medicine, so Mo Jingyu's recovery was entirely due to himself.

This child is not simple!

"Seventh Prince, stay in the palace. There are three other princes here, and you can play with them. If you need anything, you can find the Empress Dowager. You can call her Grandmother as well," Xiaoyao said to Mo Jingyu.

Xiaoyao had the Fashion Bureau make several sets of clothes for him. At this moment, Mo Jingyu's face was clean, and his wounds were almost healed.

Though still thin, the boy was handsome, and it was clear he would grow up to be a top beauty.

Xiaoyao thought that even her brother might not have been as pretty as this child when he was young.

"I must follow and take care of the little lady!" Mo Jingyu pointed at the small bundle and said.
