Even if the Emperor has suspicions in his heart, he has interacted with Jing Yunzhou several times and found that he indeed has let go of the past.
Despite his son's desire for the throne beneath him, he doesn't mind showing a bit more concern.
Not long after the New Year, Ashui rushed in from outside and approached Qiann Yan, whispering softly, "Commandery Princess, the Emperor is ill."
"The illness came suddenly, and all the princes entered to serve him. They all became dutiful sons, paying respects at his side. The news is that he is not very pleased."
Qiann Yan said calmly, "It's surprising he would be happy; these sons are just afraid he might die, so they stay by his side."
"Oh, you said all the princes have entered the palace? Has Jing Xiyu gone?"
Ashui paused and said, "He has been recuperating in the mansion for some time, reportedly unable to get out of bed."
As the conversation reached this point, Ashui seemed to understand something as well.
