Yihuan lingered outside Yongshou Palace for a long time. Yanwan was about to go for a stroll in the Imperial Garden to relieve her boredom, and saw the hesitant Yihuan not far from the palace wall.

Yan Wan walked forward and asked curiously, "Sister Yi Huan is here at Yongshou Palace, why don't you go in?"

When Yihuan saw Yanwan, she felt like she had seen a life-saving straw. She grabbed Yanwan's hand anxiously, but didn't know how to start talking for a moment.

Yan Wan was startled and guessed that it might be related to the Tenth Prince. This was not the place to talk, so she hurriedly pulled Yihuan back to Yongshou Palace.

Yan Wan asked, "What happened to my sister? But what happened to the Tenth Prince?"

Yi Huan cried anxiously, "Sister Yan Wan, please help me again! Tenth Prince, the Queen Mother has taken him away! Tenth Prince is sick and has been sent to Prince Xian's mansion. I'm afraid I will never see him again!"

Yihuan's words were incoherent and it took Yanwan a while to hear Yihuan explain the whole story.

Yan Wan asked, "Such a big thing happened, why did you tell me only now?"

Yi Huan sobbed, "Sister has helped me so much. I don't want to trouble her anymore, so I want to ask the Queen for help. But the Queen couldn't understand my feelings at all, and even mocked me for not asking you for help!"

"I really have no other choice. Sister Yanwan has always been smart. You must be able to help me!"

Yan Wan scolded, "Sister, why are you so distant with me?"

Ruyi has no empathy at all. In the original book, Yihuan was feared by the emperor because of the conflict between father and son. Since Yihuan gave birth to the tenth prince, the emperor has never summoned her again.

Even because the Tenth Prince was weak and sickly, the Emperor sent him out of the palace to be raised, which eventually led to his death.

Yihuan and Ruyi are so close, whether she wants to see the emperor or the tenth prince, she asks Ruyi for help many times. Ruyi knows the reason but refuses to help Yihuan find a solution, leaving Yihuan waiting in vain.

Seeing that I was getting along well with Yihuan in this life, it was really disheartening that he said such things!

Seeing that Yanwan did not refuse, Yihuan hurriedly asked, "Sister Yanwan, have you thought of a solution?"

Yan Wan did not answer but asked, "Sister Yi Huan, do you think the emperor knows about this?"

Yi Huan said, "They probably don't know. State affairs are very busy, and the emperor hasn't set foot in the harem for a long time. He also ordered that the concubines are not allowed to disturb him in the Yangxin Palace."

"Why else would the Queen Mother be so overbearing? Why else would the Queen use this excuse to get rid of me?"

Yan Wan did not remind Yi Huan of her mistake and said, "The Queen Mother relies on this to be fearless. When the Emperor finds out, he will say that it was you who took the initiative to ask the Queen Mother to raise the Tenth Prince. But we really can't say that."

Yihuan hurriedly asked, "Sister Yanwan, what do you think I should do?"

Yan Wan did not answer Yi Huan, and asked again: "How is the Tenth Prince's illness? Is it serious?"

When mentioning the Tenth Prince, Yihuan burst into tears. Yanwan handed Yihuan a cup of tea.

Yi Huan said, "The Tenth Prince had rubella and was sickly since childhood, so he was sent out of the palace. Although the Queen Mother said that the Tenth Prince's illness was not serious, as his mother, how could I not be worried?!"

Yan Wan comforted him, "Don't worry, sister. You can ask someone to go to Prince Xian's mansion to inquire about the Tenth Prince's condition. To be on the safe side, it would be best for Prince Xian to invite a few more doctors from the palace to serve him."

The current situation of the Tenth Prince is indeed what she is most concerned about now. "And then?"

Yan Wan smiled and said, "Since the emperor doesn't know that the tenth prince has been sent out of the palace, if anything happens to the tenth prince, Prince Xian will inevitably be charged with murdering the heir to the throne. Although he is a prince, he cannot afford this charge!"

"I guess Prince Xian is also worried. If he goes to ask the imperial physician, or if he goes directly to ask for the emperor's order, then the emperor will know that the tenth prince is not in Xiefang Palace, right?"

"The emperor will definitely investigate if he becomes suspicious. If you tell him the truth, I don't think he will bear to see you and your son separated."

Yi Huan was enlightened, and said happily: "Sister Yan Wan is really smart. I didn't expect this! But what if the Queen Mother personally ordered the imperial physician to come?"

Yan Wan naturally thought of this, but she didn't want Yi Huan to know that she had someone in the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

"Don't worry, sister. I'll take care of this matter, but..."

Yi Huan's heart, which had just been at ease, was lifted up again, and she asked anxiously, "But what? Is there anything that cannot be said between you and me? Sister Yan Wan, are you trying to make me anxious to death?!"

Yan Wan said sternly, "Sister, I want to remind you that if you resist, you will definitely offend the Queen Mother, or even break up with her! Have you thought about this consequence?"

"You chose the Emperor between the Queen Mother and the Emperor. So, from now on, the Emperor is not only your husband, but also your master! Sister, do you understand what I mean?"

Yi Huan was shocked, and then said firmly: "I entered the palace because I loved the emperor. The Tenth Prince is the only child of the emperor and me. I have no other choice!"

Yan Wan was touched by Yi Huan's devotion to the emperor and nodded, "Sister, you must let the emperor know your feelings, so that he will protect you and the tenth prince even more. If the emperor asks me, I will also speak for you!"

Yihuan understood and looked at Yanwan with gratitude.

The Tenth Prince's condition did not improve, and Prince Xian was worried and went to the palace to invite a few more imperial physicians. After all, the Emperor was over 40 years old, and his body could not bear the hard work for days.

Jinzhong summoned the imperial physician to check the emperor's pulse. The fifth princess had a heart condition, and Jiang Yubin had to go to the Yiku Palace to serve her frequently. Since he couldn't be away at the moment, the Imperial Hospital sent Doctor Bao to serve her.

After taking the emperor's pulse, Jinzhong asked casually, "Usually, Imperial Doctor Jiang and Imperial Doctor Li check the emperor's pulse. Why are you here today?"

Doctor Bao replied, "The Fifth Princess is feeling a little unwell. The Queen Mother summoned Doctor Jiang to the Yikun Palace early in the morning. Doctor Li and others left the palace and went to Prince Xian's mansion."

"The Imperial Hospital is short of staff, so I am here to serve."

The emperor asked casually, "Did you all go to Prince Xian's mansion? Is Prince Xian seriously ill?"

Doctor Bao replied: "It's not Prince Xian, it's the Emperor's Tenth Prince."

The emperor was very confused, "Tenth Prince? Why is the Tenth Prince in Prince Xian's mansion?"

Doctor Bao didn't dare to say it, so the emperor ordered, "Jinzhong, go check it out!"

Jinzhong came back and reported everything to the emperor. The emperor was so angry that his face turned green. He also wanted to know what Yihuan was thinking, so he went to Chuxiu Palace that night.

Yihuan followed Yanwan's instructions and honestly admitted that she was the Queen Mother's person. She expressed her true love and loyalty to the Emperor with deep emotion.

The emperor was both moved and distressed, and ordered the Tenth Prince to be brought back from Prince Xian's Mansion to Chuxiu Palace to recuperate.
