Because of Xuanyuan Xu's words last time, Xuanyuan Yi has been feeling like he owes An ling-Yao something ever since. Therefore, in order to understand the situation better, Xuanyuan Yi deliberately went to Yan's Mansion before leaving to find Xuanyuan Xu and inquire about the matter. When Xuanyuan Xu saw Xuanyuan Yi finding him, he instantly understood Xuanyuan Yi's intention. Xuanyuan Yi simply wanted to inquire about Princess Changle. So Xuanyuan Xu pretended not to understand Xuanyuan Yi's intention. He calmly picked up the tea on the table and slowly said, "Your Highness, please forgive me for not welcoming you properly. I don't know the reason for Your Highness's visit to Yan's Mansion." Xuanyuan Yi looked at Xuanyuan Xu and thought that if he asked Xuanyuan brother Xu rectly about An ling-Yao, Xuanyuan Xu would not tell him so straightforwardly. This kind of thing can only be approached indirectly. So he could only say that it had been a long time since he had seen Xuanyuan Xu, and since he happened to be in Jizhou, he came to find him and have a game of chess.
Xuanyuan Xun heard Xuanyuan Yi's very lame excuse, but did not expose him, so he had to go along with Xuanyuan Yi's meaning. He then ordered someone to prepare the chess room and chessboard. Then he gestured for Xuanyuan Yi to sit inside.
After both Xuanyuan Yi and Xuanyuan Xun were seated as host and guest, Xuanyuan Xun picked up a chess piece and played with it, looking at Xuanyuan Yi with a playful expression, saying, "Actually, Your Highness, if you have something to say, you don't need to beat around the bush like this. Are you interested in the past between the Queen and Princess Changle? But what I don't understand is why Your Highness is so concerned about Princess Changle from Southern Departure?"
Seeing that his intentions were seen through, Xuanyuan Yi did not panic and slowly said, "Your words are mistaken. Didn't you say it yourself? After all, that matter also involves my mother, so naturally I am curious." After speaking, he slowly placed a piece on the chessboard.
Xuanyuan Xuyi remained silent and made a move on the chessboard. He said lightly, "Oh? Are you really just curious about the Queen Mother's past offline? It doesn't seem like it. In fact, the Crown Prince can speak directly if he has something to say. I guarantee that I will not withhold any information."
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Yi stopped beating around the bush and said straightforwardly, "Since you put it that way, I'll be direct. I just want to understand more about my mother's past."
Xuanyuan Xuyi smiled at the words and said slowly, "Actually, it's nothing much, similar to what I mentioned last time. The Queen Mother and Consort Yun, from Southern Departure, grew up together. Once, when the two of them were traveling in Chenzhou from Southern Departure, they encountered the current Emperor of Southern Departure, An Lingyuan, who was just an unfavored prince at the time."
"In the turmoil of the feudal lords back then, Lin Xin's father, Lin Yang, helped An Lingyuan's father, who was the Chu King An Lingquan at the time, successfully seize the throne. As a result, Lin Xin was able to marry An Lingyuan smoothly. Later, An Lingyuan successfully became the emperor of Southern Departure. However, he did not crown Lin Xin as the empress. In order to keep his promise to Lin Yang, he had to swear never to crown another empress."
At this point, Xuan Yuan Xu paused, took a sip of tea from the table, and continued, "The reason why Princess Changle was sent to Da Qian for a political marriage was also due to your mother's influence over the important figures in the Southern Departure's palace. An Lingyuan agreed because of Princess Changle's status as a woman and the instigation of that important figure. I'm not entirely sure who that important figure is. Now you understand why I said that Princess Changle's arrival in Da Qian was a gift from the empress, don't you?"
Xuanyuan Yi fell silent for a long time after hearing this, and then slowly said, "I never expected that there would be so much entanglement between my mother and Changle's mother. What's even more unexpected is that I could meet Changle, all thanks to my mother's unexpected intervention."
Just as Xuanyuan Yi was lost in thought, Xuan Yuan Xu's words brought Xuanyuan Yi back to reality: "Your Highness, it's your move. What are you thinking about?"
It was because of Xuan Yuan Xu's words that Xuanyuan Yi came to his senses, took a quick glance at the chessboard, and made a strange move in a peculiar position.
Xuan Yuan Xu looked at the chessboard, frowned, thought for a long time, and still couldn't understand the intention behind Xuanyuan Yi's move. He had originally wanted to mock, but to his surprise, after more than ten moves, Xuan Yuan Xu ended up losing miserably.
Xuanyuan Xu was very dissatisfied with the result and insisted on continuing with Xuanyuan Yi. Because he had already asked for what he wanted, Xuanyuan Yi originally intended to leave. However, Xuanyuan Xu insisted on not letting Xuanyuan Yi go. Helpless, Xuanyuan Yi could only stay and continue playing chess with Xuanyuan Xu.
However, after several games, Xuanyuan Xu still didn't win a single one. Seeing this result, Xuanyuan Xu was very angry. In a fit of anger, she fainted on the ground.
Xuanyuan Yi quickly went to check the situation, but couldn't tell what was wrong for a moment. He had to go out to find the doctor. Unexpectedly, he encountered a familiar face, it was Mu Yue. Mu Yue was also surprised to see Xuanyuan Yi, and the two almost simultaneously said, "What are you doing here?"
Mu Yue looked pleasantly surprised and asked, "Your Highness, why have you come to Yan's Mansion?" But at that moment, Xuanyuan Yi didn't have time for pleasantries. He grabbed Mu Yue's hand and headed towards the chess room. Along the way, Mu Yue voiced her question, "Your Highness, what's happening that has made you so urgent?" Xuanyuan Yi urgently replied, "There's no time to explain, just come with me to see the patient's condition."
"Patient? What patient? Your Highness, I didn't understand what you meant," Mu Yue said, looking puzzled.
"You'll know when you get there. I don't know how to explain it to you right now. Hurry, it might be too late," Xuanyuan Yi said, quickening his pace.
The two hurried to the chess room. As soon as they entered, Mu Yue saw Xuanyuan Xu lying unconscious on the ground. Mu Yue quickly went to check the situation and then ushered Xuanyuan Yi out, closing the door behind him. She claimed that Xuanyuan Yi would hinder the treatment. However, a long time passed, and Mu Yue's treatment was still not finished. Seeing that an hour had passed, Xuanyuan Yi couldn't bear it any longer. Just as he was about to rush in, the door slowly opened.
Xuanyuan Yi quickly stepped forward to inquire about the situation. Mu Yue wiped the sweat from his forehead, sighed slowly, and said in a low voice, "It's not very optimistic. I don't have time to explain in detail right now. Your Highness, please take good care of this patient here. I need to go back and ask my grandfather to come and take a look." After bowing to Xuanyuan Yi, he hurriedly left.
Xuanyuan Yi escorted Mu Yue to the door, bowed deeply to Mu Yue, and said, "Then I'll leave it to Doctor Mu. Please make sure to cure brother Xu."
"Your Highness, rest assured. This is our duty, and we will do our best," Mu Yue said before turning and leaving.
Mu Yue had just left not long ago when a carriage came speeding towards Xuanyuan Yi. When the carriage stopped, two middle-aged people dressed in luxurious clothes got off. The servants of Yan's Mansion immediately knelt down and greeted them, "May the King and Queen be blessed." Xuanyuan Yi looked closely and realized that the two people who got off the carriage were none other than King Yan, Xuanyuan Di and Princess Yan. Xuanyuan Yi went forward to greet the two, "Hello, Uncle Wang, and Aunt Wang. You're back."
Xuanyuan Di hurriedly bowed to Xuanyuan Yi and anxiously inquired about Xuanyuan Xun's condition. Xuanyuan Yi shook his head, indicating that it was not too good. Upon hearing this news, Princess Yan felt her mind go blank. Suddenly, everything went black before her eyes, and she fainted to the ground. Seeing this, Xuanyuan Yi had no choice but to leave first.
After Xuanyuan Yi left, King Yan, Xuanyuan Di said angrily, "My dear elder brother, back then you took away the throne that belonged to me. Now your son has caused my son to fall into a coma. If my son doesn't wake up, don't blame me for doing something that disregards brotherly love."
