Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Leaning on the pillow, Emperor Yan looked at Prince Anyang standing not far away under the bed.

“What is it?” He asked tiredly.

Prince Anyang hurriedly bowed.

“After 1 returned to the residence, I went to see Consort Shu.”

Emperor Yan’s expression instantly tightened.

“Her Highness agreed to come into the palace to see father, but…”

“But what?” Emperor Yan immediately asked.

A hint of struggle flashed across Prince Anyang’s face.

“But, Her Highness raised a condition.” He said.

“What condition?” Emperor Yan tightened the blanket covering his body with one hand.

Prince Anyang looked at Emperor Yan carefully.

“Her Highness suggested…”

He steeled his heart and said, “Her Highness wants father to issue a self-reproaching edict and remove the Nangong family’s crimes.”

Emperor Yan’s heart instantly sank. He seemed to have lost all his strength and fell weakly onto the pillow.

Then, he started panting heavily.

“Father…” Seeing this, Prince Anyang quickly went forward to help Emperor Yan.

Zhang Shi, who was at the side, also followed.

However, just as she was about to touch Emperor Yan, Emperor Yan stretched out his hand to stop Zhang Shi from touching him.

Emperor Yan looked straight at Zhang Shi, as if he could see Consort Shu through her.

His eyes were filled with pain and love…

Zhang Shi was froze on the spot and could only watch as Prince Anyang comforted Emperor Yan.

After a while, Emperor Yan felt a little better and was placed back on the pillow by Prince Anyang.

“Father…” Prince Anyang’s eyes were filled with worry.

“I’m fine.” Emperor Yan replied while panting.

Then, he looked at Prince Anyang.

“Do you think I should issue this edict?” He asked.

Prince Anyang froze.

Then, Emperor Yan smiled.

“Then i’ll do it.”

“I’ll be a good father for once.”

Prince Anyang’s expression changed.

“Father…” Her eyes reddened.

Emperor Yan smiled. Bring Wan Yue to see me tomorrow morning. 1 miss her…” He said.

Upon closer inspection, one could see tears in Emperor Yan’s eyes.

Prince Anyang’s expression changed.

“Yes.” He responded.

Then, he left the Shanghua Palace.

On the way out of the palace, he could not help but recall Emperor Yan’s gaze and his words.

He had never thought that his father would agree to the edict so easily. He was even prepared for his father to refuse.

However, he did not expect his father to agree to it, and it was so simple.

His father, whom he had treated as a god in the past, was actually crying and said that he missed Wan Yue.

Wanyue, Nangong Wanyue. How many people in the palace still remembered Consort Shu’s name…

The next day.

Early in the morning, Prince Anyang personally brought people to wait outside Li Wan’s courtyard.

When Li Wan woke up, Prince Anyang asked to see her.

After explaining the situation, Li Wan did not wash up again. She just wore folk clothes and got into the sedan chair prepared by the Prince Anyang.

Imperial Palace, Shuanghua Palace.

When Li Wan entered, she saw Zhang Shi.

It was Zhang Shi’s first time seeing Li Wan and she was shocked.

She was actually 80% similar to Consort Shu, not only in appearance, but also in expression.

But with just one glance, she knew that she was unable to completely imitate Consort Shu’s charm.

Consort Shu was noble and arrogant.

She was born with this. It was not something a poor folk girl like her could learn.

Compared to Consort Shu, her only advantage was that she was younger.

Yes, Consort Shu was older than her, ten years older.

Unfortunately, whether it was the Emperor or His Highness, they did not care about this.

Without Consort Shu, she was nothing…

Li Wan was also surprised to see Zhang Shi.

Then, she only glanced at Prince Anyang before entering the palace.

In the palace, such methods were too common.

The palace was not bright because the windows were closed.

Li Wan entered the hall alone.

The decorations in the hall were the same as before, even… It looked exactly the same as before she left.

Stepping into this place again, she really felt like it was a lifetime ago.

“You’re back?” Suddenly, a voice came from within the hall.

Li Wan’s body subconsciously trembled.

When she looked over again, she saw Emperor Yan standing not far away from her in a dragon robe.

At this moment, although Emperor Yan’s hair was white, he looked very energetic. He was a completely different person from last night’s weak appearance.

But even so, the current him had changed quite a bit compared to before Li Wan left the palace.

He’s old…

Seeing Consort Shu looking at him, an unnatural expression flashed across Emperor Yan’s face.

In order to make himself look more energetic, he even took the Life Essence Pill, hoping that he would not have any regrets in this final meeting..
