Chapter 188 God’s Guidance in Dreams
The moon rises from the treetops, like a jade wheel on an ice plate, spotless.
Under the light of the candle in the study, Nan Mo's eyes were full of mystery.
Nan Gubei shook his head slightly, "You misunderstood. The emperor did not mention that I should go on a diplomatic mission to Xirong. He only mentioned that when the new emperor of Xirong ascended the throne, all the surrounding countries would send envoys to congratulate him. After all, in recent years, the borders of all countries have been at peace on the surface."
Just as Nan Mo was trying to calm down, Nan Gubei suddenly said, "But I guess the Queen Mother may want me to lead the envoys to visit Xirong."
"Did Dad meet the Queen Mother in the palace just now?" Nan Mo's phoenix eyes suddenly darkened.
"Yes, the emperor summoned me to the palace to discuss the contracts signed between the Southern Barbarian King Ying'an and our Great Xia after he assumed power as the Southern Barbarian King. Therefore, the Southern Barbarians had already sent an envoy here a while ago, and I estimate that he should arrive in the next few days.
It was just that the discussion ended when the Queen Mother came to Chongzheng Hall. If the Queen Mother hadn’t mentioned that the Xirong royal family had replaced the new emperor and ascended the throne, the emperor and I would not have known about it, and the news from the palace had not been sent back yet.”
Nan Gubei frowned as he spoke, "It's quite unexpected that the Queen Mother got the news before the Emperor."
At this time, he looked at Nan Mo and said in a low voice, "At that time, I saw that the emperor's face was not very good, and I was afraid that this would cause him to be resentful and wary of the empress dowager."
Nan Mo looked at her father who knew nothing, and she felt comforted. At least her father would not be disturbed by those mysterious identities and tedious matters.
Her long eyelashes hid the coldness in her eyes, and she soothed him, "The emperor has his own plans for these matters, so don't worry about it, Dad. As for the mission to Xirong, I think the emperor has a suitable candidate in mind."
Nan Gubei took a deep breath and said, "I was actually thinking the same thing on the way back from leaving the palace, but just now I heard you mention the physical condition of the brother and sister..."
Nan Gubei looked at Nan Mo with some hesitation, "Your father actually wants to go on a diplomatic mission to Xirong."
"Dad wanted to take the opportunity of the diplomatic mission to Xirong to see how my great uncle was doing over there."
“Well, after all, your great uncle is not of the royal bloodline of Xirong, and no one knows who is on the throne now. His identity is always awkward, and it may even be dangerous.
I think he must have realized that the royal family would be replaced soon, so he contacted us and asked the two children to come to our place."
"Dad, you worry too much."
Nan Mo said in a gentle voice, "These are just your guesses. It's getting late now. We'll know the details of our uncle's situation tomorrow after we ask my cousin. We can make plans then, how about that?"
"That's all we can do for now."
Just as Nan Mo was about to go back, Nan Gubei suddenly said, "I almost forgot, there is something I need to ask you."
"what's up?"
"Today in the palace, the Emperor said that Prince You had asked him for an imperial decree to grant marriage, and even asked the Imperial Observatory to calculate a date, so that he could marry you in advance?"
Nan Mo had no intention of hiding this matter. She had been planning to tell her father the general, but she had forgotten about it after so many things happened.
"Indeed, my daughter agreed and chose the sixth day of December."
Nan Gubei said after a while, "Just make your own decision. I know you must have your reasons for doing this. And King You is someone your mother values, so your mother must have made the right choice."
Nan Mo lowered her eyes with a slightly dark color. She had not told her father about her mother Shen Hanyan's condition because she was worried that her father would not be able to bear it. Now, because of the Queen Mother's two-faced personality, she could not reveal even a single thing.
She walked over and hugged General Dad, "Dad, believe me, it won't be long before our family will be reunited."
-
The next day.
Nan Gubei and Nan Mo came to Yuehua Garden together.
Originally, the Nan Xiao siblings were going to come to the main courtyard early in the morning to pay their respects to Nan Gubei. After all, they were the younger generation and it was also their first time visiting the mansion.
But Nan Gubei simply dispensed with all these formalities. He knew that Nan Xiao was afraid of cold, and there were so many braziers prepared in Yuehua Garden to keep him warm, so it would be better for him to come over instead of letting the younger generations go back and forth.
In the hall of Yuehua Garden.
Nan Xiao, who was in a wheelchair, bowed to Nan Gubei and said, "My nephew greets my second uncle."
Nan Gubei patted his shoulder gently and said, "Good boy, you have suffered a lot over the years."
Nan Xiao shook his head slightly, "I'm sorry to have made Second Uncle worried."
"Since you are here, just live peacefully and don't feel any estrangement. Your father is my biological brother from the same father and mother. We only lost contact because of the different positions of our two countries, but it doesn't mean that we have no estrangement from each other."
Nan Xiao's phoenix eyes, which were almost identical to Nan Mo's, showed a hint of smile, "My nephew will listen to my second uncle and will not be estranged from him."
Nan Gubei nodded with satisfaction, and continued, "Mo'er told me about your physical condition last night. Don't worry. Since Mo'er said she can treat it, she will definitely be able to completely remove the toxins in your body, so that you will no longer be afraid of the cold and your body will recover."
Nan Xiao's phoenix eyes were filled with shock and surprise as he slowly looked at Nan Mo beside him, "Cousin...cousin can...can heal it?"
Facing the look of disbelief, Nan Mo responded, "I don't know what kind of miracle doctor you came to the capital to find for treatment, but I dare say I can remove the poison in your body, but the process is a bit troublesome. After all, this is caused by the fetal poison, and all organs in your body have long been infected by the toxin."
Hearing the words "prenatal poison", the disbelief in Nan Xiao's eyes disappeared, replaced by admiration, "My cousin didn't even feel my pulse, but she was able to tell that the reason why my brother and I are in such a bad condition is because of the prenatal poison. This shows how high my cousin's medical skills are."
He paused and continued, "To be honest with my second uncle and cousin, my brother and I came to Daxia to seek medical treatment, but we actually don't know who the miracle doctor we requested is."
At this moment, Nan Xiao looked at Nan Mo with joy. He had thought that it would be impossible to find the so-called miracle doctor this time. He took his sister on this trip just to not disappoint his mother. In fact, he had already prepared himself to give up hope.
Who would have thought that this cousin whom I had never met before might be the so-called miracle doctor.
Nan Xiao’s words surprised Nan Mo and Nan Gubei.
"If that's the case, how did my cousin know that there is someone in the capital of Daxia who can cure this poison?"
Nan Xiao was silent for a moment, "My cousin knows about the fetal poison, so she should also know about my mother's physical condition?"
"Well, fortunately you are in the Xirong royal family, so you can have an uninterrupted supply of Hundred-Year-Old Snow Lotus to sustain your life."
"My mother has been lying on the bed in a coma for most of these years. If it weren't for Xuelian keeping her alive, she would have passed away long ago."
Nan Xiao's voice was a little low, and he was breathing heavily after speaking a few words.
Manager Zhou hurriedly handed over the water soaked with snow lotus and asked him to drink a few sips.
After her breathing stabilized a little, Nan Xiao said, "Two months ago, my mother, who had been in a coma for a long time, suddenly woke up. The first thing she did when she woke up was to ask my father to write a letter to my second uncle, who I had not contacted for so many years, and at the same time, let my brother and I set off to the capital of Daxia to seek medical treatment.
You may not believe it, but my mother said that when she was unconscious, she had a very long dream. A god appeared in her dream and told her that there was a miracle doctor in the capital of Daxia who could save her child. "
