Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The team would not stop because of this small incident and continued walking.

The Emperor was filial and endured the heat. The Empress was not to be outdone and also endured it with her will. Yu Wan worked all year round, so climbing the mountain was not difficult for her. She was the one who walked the most calmly among the women.

However, most people did not have their willpower or bodies. As more and more people had heatstroke, the pills in the imperial physician’s hands were no longer enough. Just as the Emperor was wondering if he should rest on the spot, those officials who could not take it anymore stood up in high spirits.

It seemed like they were fine.

The Emperor did not ask further. He did not have much stamina left. He would keep it for climbing the mountain! When he finally arrived at Dajue Temple, the Emperor felt that he had lost half his life. If not for the fact that there were so many concubines and ministers present, he would have collapsed on the spot.

Surprisingly, the Ninth Princess actually climbed half of the journey. The second half was carried by Fu Ling.

The Empress was also exhausted. She was the mother of a country, so no maidservant could carry her. Of course, she was also glad that the rules had been changed by this dynasty. It was said that in the previous dynasty, they had to kneel down with every step, showing their sincerity.

The concubines and officials also arrived one after another.

“Thank you, Prince Cheng.”

“It’s all thanks to Prince Cheng.”

“That’s right. Otherwise, we would have to lie down halfway. It’s much more effective than the imperial physician’s pills.”

Not far away, Prince Cheng was surrounded by many officials.

Prince Cheng smiled politely. “There’s no need to thank me. The medicine doesn’t belong to my manor. I’m just borrowing a flower to present to the Buddha.”

When they heard him say this, everyone was stunned. They had all wanted to faint from the heatstroke halfway. Prince Cheng’s servants gave them pills to eat. They did not know what those pills were made of, but when they took one, their entire bodies turned cold. They even climbed up the second half of the pill without any signs of heatstroke.

Prince Cheng smiled and said, “I asked my cousin-in-law for it. I ate one myself and felt that the effect was not bad, so I gave it to you.”

When everyone heard this, their faces turned red. When they were climbing the mountain, the Princely Heir Consort had taken the initiative to give them medicine. However, they did not take it seriously and did not accept it. Aren’t they slapping themselves in the mouth by praising the Princely Heir Consort’s medicine?

If Prince Cheng was not an honest person, they would have thought that he was deliberately standing up for the Princely Heir Consort.

“If you want to thank someone, go thank the Princely Heir Consort,” Prince Cheng said with a harmless smile.

They had already taken the medicine and praised it. It would be unreasonable not to thank her in person. Hence, Yu Wan, who was braiding the Ninth Princess’s hair, saw those people who didn’t want her medicine walking towards her majestically, braced themselves and bowed to thank them.

They thought that Yu Wan would take the opportunity to mock them, but Yu Wan only nodded indifferently. “It’s good that you’re fine.”

Everyone looked at each other. She was not angry when she was underestimated. She was not arrogant when she was proud. She was so calm and composed. She really did not look like a country bumpkin. It was said that heroes should not be questioned. One had to know that women were not inferior to men.

At this moment, everyone looked at Yu Wan in a different light. It was not because of her medicine, but because of her character. Not to mention that she was only an eighteen-year-old woman, even old men like them who had been immersed in politics for many years might not be able to reach her level.

This time, the civil and military officials were mobilized. Naturally, they were not just consecrating the Everlasting Light for the Empress Dowager. The abbot of the Dajue Temple had come out of seclusion. The Emperor had brought the officials over to hear him preach the scriptures and discuss the Dao.

The abbot entered the Dajue Temple to cultivate when he was four years old. Until now, he had already cultivated for sixty years and was already famous throughout the world. Even the Emperor had no choice but to treat such an enlightened monk with respect.

The abbot, who was wearing a kasaya, brought a group of monks out to welcome the Emperor. The high and mighty arrogance on the Emperor’s face was gone, and he piously bowed to the abbot.

The Emperor asked his adult sons to also meet the abbot. What was worth mentioning was that Yan Huaijing still did not attend. It was said that he was still recuperating in the manor. Whether he was really recuperating or was dejected was unknown.

After a round of greetings, a monk led everyone to the meditation room.

The Emperor and his concubines’ meditation room was in an independent courtyard, while the civil and military officials and princes were distributed in the remaining courtyards. This time, the princes and officials did not bring any women with them. As for Yu Wan, she was here to perform filial piety on behalf of Yan Jiuchao.

Yu Wan was assigned to the Ninth Princess’s meditation room.
