Chapter 470: Huo Qings One Visit

Your Imperial Highness, Madame sent a message saying that she wanted to come to the palace to take a look at the little prince. Qing Zhu whispered this quietly in Ning Shus ear.

Ning Shu waved dismissively. Tell them not to send messages to the palace for now. For the time being, dont let any of the womenfolk into the palace. Qingyan will stay in the palace. Right now, Chengw.a.n.g really needs someone to keep him company. Tell Mother not to worry and that this empress will protect Qingyan.

Qing Zhus face was filled with worry as she walked out.

After having breakfast, Xiao Qingyan came back to wait for his little cousin to wake up.

Some consorts and concubines came by to greet Ning Shu, but she wasnt in the mood to see them.

They brought a lot of things, but Ning Shu had Qing Zhu directly stuff them into the storage without even taking a look at them.

When it was afternoon, Huo Qing finally found out that his son had fallen sick and came over with a cold expression. Ning Shu felt her b.a.l.l.s ache when she saw this. Once again, if he didnt want to come, why come!?

Huo Qing demanded, Why didnt you tell us that Chengw.a.n.g had fallen ill? If it werent for the fact that this empresss father had asked about the little princes health, he wouldnt have known that Huo Chengw.a.n.g had fallen ill.

Huo Qing felt like his dignity was being provoked. He was the master of the imperial palace, but others had actually found out about matters in his family sooner than him.

How could outsiders be allowed to know about what happened in the imperial palace? What did they treat his imperial palace as?

When Ning Shu heard what Huo Qing said, her jaw dropped. She had never seen such a shameless person before. He had scared his own son to the point that he fell ill, and now he had the nerve to come interrogate her?

Ning Shu was inwardly cursing, but she maintained an exhausted but fl.u.s.tered expression. Chengw.a.n.g started having a fever very late last night, so this subject wife didnt want to bother Your Majesty.

Then you shouldve sent someone to tell us in the morning. Huo Chengw.a.n.g was annoyed because he had been dumbfounded when his father-in-law suddenly asked about this.

Ning Shu said mildly, This subject wife hadnt slept at all last night so this subject wifes head is a little muddled. It was this subject wifes mistake for forgetting to send someone to notify Your Majesty.

Huo Qings next words got stuck in his throat, so he sat down by the bed to look at Huo Chengw.a.n.g who was now asleep. How is he now?

Hes much better, said Ning Shu.

Huo Qings expression was displeased as he said, Despite being our child, he actually fell ill just because of a little incident like this? How can he have the right to be our son like this?

Ning Shu: My holy f.u.c.k

The fudge? He spoke like his son wasnt a person, that he wasnt made of blood and flesh, and that he wouldnt feel hurt. In the end, it was just that he didnt care about him.

If it was the little fox and his child on the bed right now, he would probably be shouting for the imperial physician to be beheaded.

Ning Shus lips twitched, but she forced herself to remain calm. This subject wife will take good care of Chengw.a.n.g.

Huo Qing stayed for a little while and left. It hadnt even been long enough to brew a pot of tea. He was probably going to find the little fox so that the little fox wouldnt get angry.

Even with Ning Shu looking after Huo Chengw.a.n.g day and night along with Xiao Qingyans company, it still took a full month for Huo Chengw.a.n.g to recover. After such a tiring month, Ning Shu felt like she had gotten thinner from fatigue.

Huo Qing came a grand total of once. It was seriously so cold. He even treated his own child this coldly. However, Huo Chengw.a.n.g didnt ask about whether his imperial father had visited again.

Ning Shu felt that Huo Chengw.a.n.g had changed a lot. He wasnt as lively as before and didnt want to play as much. Even when Ning Shu didnt say anything, he would study of his own accord. Ning Shu would often talk to Huo Chengw.a.n.g about life. Before, she had been trying to get Huo Chengw.a.n.g to study, but now she was trying to get Huo Chengw.a.n.g to pay attention to keeping a balance between work and rest.

It was sure hard to be a mom.
