The old wangfei was in her eighties this year. Because of her old age and poor health, she lived in a nursing home all year round, rarely going out or seeing anyone outside.
Apart from the a
ual celebration, the old princess rarely appeared in public.
After coming back this time, Yu Xiao Wan was going to visit her grandmother.
After Shen Rui found out about this, he volunteered early in the morning to become's escort.
Due to Shen Rui's identity and status, the royal family couldn't refuse. Even though Yu Xiao Wan and Ai Di had an engagement, the royal family still pretended not to see it, tacitly allowing Shen Rui to accompany him.
When they heard that Ai Di Lun did not go to find his fiancee Princess Ina but instead went to look for him, the people from the royal family couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
It was hard to offend either side!
Shen Rui arrived at the Imperial Palace in the early morning and accompanied Yu Xiao Wan to the sanatorium.
Once he entered the gate of the sanatorium, Shen Rui saw the yard full of flowers.
Yu Xiao Wan explained, "Grandmother's favorite flower is these flowers, she said that seeing these flowers is like seeing hope. His grandfather had four princesses in total, and the other three had all died, leaving only the last one behind. This princess is also the one who gave birth to my father, so she has a high position in the royal family. She's also my grandmother. "
Shen Rui nodded and said, "Your royal family is indeed different from the others."
"Yeah. In the Our country, only the royal family still retained the system of polygamy. A normal king could have four consorts, the first consort, and the third consort. My mother is a little princess, so she doesn't have much say in the royal family. To be able to find someone similar in age to marry to her is already my mother's greatest ability. " Yu Xiao Wan looked at the scenery outside the carriage and said softly, "It's simply too tragic to see the marriage partner of the sister born to the other little wangfei. We were all sisters, and seeing them suffer made my heart hurt. Thus, when they turn to me for help, I will help them whenever I can. "
"Is this why you were always too busy to attend classes before?" Shen Rui asked.
"Yes." Yu Xiao Wan nodded and sighed, and said: "It's a pity that I don't have much money with me, or it could be said that I can't give them too much either. Sometimes it was just a temporary help. "Oh, by the way, thank you for coming with me so early to visit my grandmother."
"No, I got up early too. I'm used to it." Shen Rui replied with a smile, "Furthermore, I am also very happy to be able to go with you to visit Grandmother."
"When we get there, if Grandmother says it's weird, please don't mind." Yu Xiao Wan continued to speak: "After all, the old man is already old, his memory is not good, and his speech is also a bit of a muddle."
"I won't." Shen Rui replied with a smile.
The two of them quickly walked through the i
er door of the sanatorium.
An arched corridor stretched out in all directions. Two people walked side by side down this corridor. Behind them were four attendants.
This was the standard setting for princesses in the royal family of E Nation.
The two of them stopped in front of a very warm room and someone immediately went in to report. After a while, they came out and bowed: "Princess Ina, young master of He Family, wangfei invites you."
Shen Rui politely nodded and followed Yu Xiao Wan in.
Pushing open the door, he saw a crimson carpet embroidered with pure white clouds, dark brown furniture, dark gold wallpaper, and curtains slowly being blown up by the wind.
There was also an old man in a wheelchair.
"Grandmother, open the window this early and be careful of the cold." Yu Xiao Wan greeted in E Language and quickly walked over. She introduced her: "Grandmother, this is Ina. I've come to see you! This is the young master of the He Family, He Shen Rui. "
The old wangfei only raised her eyelids indifferently, glanced at Yu Xiao Wan, and then slowly turned to look in He Shen Rui's direction.
He Shen Rui squatted down and greeted his, "Greetings, consort. I am He Shen Rui."
The old wangfei stared fixedly at He Shen Rui for a long time before she slowly opened her mouth and said, "She's really pretty, just like the flowers outside."
Shen Rui was not angry because of the old wangfei's words. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.
Anyone who looked good was actually very afraid of others using their looks to talk.
"Does the wangfei like it?" Shen Rui asked with a smile.
"I like it." The old wangfei nodded.
After saying that, the old wangfei turned to look at the flowers blooming outside the window and fell back into silence.
When Yu Xiao Wan tried to continue speaking with the old wangfei, she shook her head towards her. Then, she moved two chairs over and sat beside the old wangfei, one for each of them, and accompanied her to look at the flowers outside the window.
The windows were wide open and the wind was strong.
The fragrant scent of flowers wafted into the room, bringing with it a whirlwind.
After a while, Shen Rui heard regular breathing from the chair beside him.
Shen Rui made a silent gesture towards Yu Xiao Wan, then carefully took a blanket from the side, and gently covered the old wangfei's body. Then, he gently pulled Yu Xiao Wan along as they left the room.
"I'm sorry, but Grandmother is getting old and doesn't have enough energy, so she has less and less time to wake up." Yu Xiao Wan said in a low voice: "I have neglected you."
"No, don't blame yourself for it. Take a breath of fresh air in the morning and admire the beautiful flowers. Most importantly, be accompanied by others. I think everything is fine. " Shen Rui shook his head and said: "In my eyes, all of this is actually very beautiful."
Yu Xiao Wan laughed, then said: "Since you came here with me, what should we do, Xiao He?"
"Oh, I've already asked Qiao Er to prepare breakfast. I think he would definitely be more than happy to do it." Shen Rui said humorlessly: "Does this count as helping him?"
Yu Xiao Wan burst out in laughter. "Didn't you say that no one can easily woo Xiao He?"
"Mn, but with someone helping me take care of Xiao He, I can at least give them the proper permission." Shen Rui replied humorlessly.
Yu Xiao Wan immediately laughed her head up and down.
She could only show such sincerity in front of Shen Rui.
In front of others, she would forever be a noble and dignified princess. Only in front of familiar people, would she reveal her true nature and her original childish i
ocence.
"Every time I come back, I come here to see my grandmother. Every time she came here, she would realize that her grandmother was even older than before. No matter who it is, no one can escape this fate. " Yu Xiao Wan said in a low voice, "After Grandfather and the other three consorts passed away, Grandmother's spirit grew weaker and weaker every day. Now, I have less and less time to be awake. I'm worried that I won't be able to hold on much longer. "
