"Ayan, did your wedding reception go well yesterday?" Queen Wei asked with a smile.

Wei Yan replied with a smile: "Everything went smoothly. There were just too many people watching the excitement along the way. When we arrived at the Ling Mansion, the Ling family did not make things too difficult. Only Ling Xiao and Ling Jingyan made a fuss for a while."

He explained in detail what Ling Xiao and Ling Jingyan had stopped him from entering, which made Empress Wei laugh non-stop.

In fact, the ladies had already reported these things when they returned to the palace last night. But listening to Xi Niang's words is not as lively and interesting as Wei Yan's own words.

Queen Wei listened with great interest and laughed again and again. At the end, he sighed with some regret: "It's a pity that I couldn't go to the Wei Mansion in person yesterday and watch you worship with my own eyes."

As a queen, she has unimaginable glory and status, but she also has many constraints. With her status, she was not allowed to leave the palace easily. Even if her only brother gets married, she cannot be there in person. I could only send a few bridesmaids to help with the wedding. From the words spoken by the bridesmaids, I imagined what a lively scene it would be.

The regret and loss on Queen Wei's face were very obvious.

Ling Jingshu smiled and consoled her: "We all know your thoughts very well. Even though your Majesty cannot be here in person, we have never forgotten her for a moment."

"From now on, when I have nothing to do, I will often have the audacity to come into the palace and disturb the queen. Don't think that I am too diligent in coming here."

Queen Wei relaxed her brows, and there was a smile in her eyes: "I hope you come to the palace from time to time, there is no reason to dislike it. In the past few months since you have been out of the palace, it seems that something is missing around me, and I always feel deserted!" "

Ling Jingshu smiled and said: "Don't talk about your Majesty, I don't feel comfortable with it either. In the days when I first returned to Ling Mansion, I woke up early every day, thinking about going to my Majesty's side earlier to serve her. I was teased by the two maids around me. Many times, I said that when I returned to Ling Mansion, my heart was still in Lingbo Hall."

Queen Wei smiled when she heard this.

The two women chatted animatedly, but Wei Yan was left alone.

Wei Yan didn't feel lonely at all. Seeing his respected eldest sister and his newlywed wife chatting happily, he felt happy in his heart.

A palace maid walked in quickly and reported: "To report to the Queen, the ladies in each palace knew that Imperial Physician Wei was bringing the bride into the palace today to pay her respects, so they came here specially. They said they wanted to see the bride."

Ling Jingshu has been in the palace for so long, and all the concubines in the palace know her. The so-called meeting the bride was mostly for Empress Wei's face.

Queen Wei said with a smile: "It's rare that they have such a heart, please invite them in!"

Then he smiled softly at Ling Jingshu and said, "When they come here, they must bring some decent greeting gifts. You're welcome, just accept them one by one."

Ling Jingshu laughed dumbly and quickly agreed.

As expected by Queen Wei, there were quite a few concubines coming to Lingbo Palace. Everyone wanted to curry favor with Queen Wei and acted quite generously.

Ling Jingshu was merciless in accepting the greeting gifts, and she really made a fortune.

At noon, Queen Wei left Wei Yan and Ling Jingshu to have lunch, and the concubines stayed to join in the fun. They organized several palace banquets, which were quite lively.

After the luncheon, the emperor personally sent Eunuch Ding over.

"Congratulations to Imperial Physician Wei on your wedding." Eunuch Ding said with a smile on his face: "The Emperor knew that Imperial Physician Wei was leading the bride into the palace, so he specially ordered his servant to tell her, and also invited Imperial Physician Wei and his wife to go to the Zichen Hall to meet the Holy Spirit. The Emperor has a reward."

The emperor personally summoned him, which was a huge honor.

Wei Yan showed a flattered expression at the right time and thanked him gratefully.

Queen Wei thought for a moment and stood up with a smile: "I am busy greeting you two today, and I haven't had time to go to Zichen Palace yet. I just happen to go there with you."

Accompanying them to face the emperor was because they were worried that the emperor would make things difficult for him.

Since the emperor fell ill, his temper has become increasingly weird and moody. In this palace, only Queen Wei can persuade the emperor. As long as Queen Wei is here, the emperor will naturally not make things difficult for Wei Yan and his wife.

Wei Yan and Ling Jingshu looked at each other, feeling warm in their hearts.

…

The emperor has been ill for a long time, and the strong smell of medicine lingers in the Zichen Palace. Mixed with the smell of sandalwood, it penetrates into the nostrils, making it somewhat stuffy and uncomfortable.

Queen Wei and Wei Yan often stay in Zichen Palace, and have long been accustomed to this smell. Ling Jingshu smelled this smell again after a few months, and she didn't feel any discomfort.

The emperor was supported by his chamberlain, half sitting and half leaning on the quilt.

Having not seen the sun for more than half a year, the emperor's face was strangely pale. Due to his poor appetite, he had lost a lot of weight, and the wrinkles on his forehead were particularly obvious. Shockingly old!

Even people who don't understand medical skills will know that the emperor is almost exhausted. How many more years he can live depends on the emperor's fortune.

Ling Jingshu gathered her thoughts and knelt down with Wei Yan to kowtow in greeting.

The emperor was obviously in a good mood today. He asked the two of them to stand up with a smile, and ordered others to reward them with many gold, silver, and jade articles.

The emperor's actions are beyond the comparison of the concubines and ladies.

Ling Jingshu made some calculations in her mind and couldn't help but be secretly surprised. This trip to the palace was really rewarding!

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the generous reward. I would like to express my gratitude to the Emperor on behalf of the couple." Empress Wei smiled and naturally walked to the bed and sat down, carefully arranging the clothes for the Emperor.

This tenderness and considerateness is enough to turn Bai Liangang into a soft hand. What's more, the emperor is in a gloomy mood and can't move due to illness?

The emperor's expression suddenly softened a little: "Wei Yan is your brother and also my brother-in-law. He got married and got a wife. As a sister, you are happy because I am his brother-in-law. How can you be unhappy about this? The reward is nothing. When they have children in the future, I will give them a title so that the Wei family can inherit the wealth forever."

It was the practice of the Zhou Dynasty to reward descendants.

After Empress Chiang was granted the title, the British Duke became the most noble person in the Zhou Dynasty. Later, Queen Xu was established, and the Xu family also prospered. Now it's Queen Wei's turn, and the Emperor will naturally not be stingy.

Queen Haolaiwei has only one younger brother and no relatives in her natal family. In the future, I must be rewarded with a hereditary title.

Queen Wei had been mentally prepared for this. After hearing such words, she still showed a surprised smile: "Your Majesty is so kind to the Wei family. I am deeply grateful. I would like to thank Your Majesty for your grace in advance."

Ling Jingshu and Wei Yan had to kneel down to express their gratitude.

The emperor smiled pleasantly and said: "That's all, you two get up!"

At this moment, a chamberlain came in and reported: "Your Majesty, His Highness the Grand Sun wishes to see you."

Now that the prince is in power, the emperor's grandson assists in court affairs, and he is busy non-stop every day. I still remember to go to the palace to pay my respects from time to time. The emperor was also very satisfied with his eldest grandson.

"Let him in quickly."
