Shangguan Yu clearly remembered the past. His lowered eyelashes trembled and he said hoarsely, “The longevity noodles Mother cooked are the best in the world. I naturally have to finish them.”
Song Li smiled. “It’s good that you like it. I’ll make it for you next year.”
Shangguan Yu tightened his grip and suddenly stood up.
Song Li was stunned.
Shangguan Yu composed himself and took out a small round porcelain box from his pocket and placed it on the table. “This is the jade congealing ointment I found outside the palace. It’s good for frostbite. Mother, remember to apply it every day.”
As he spoke, he looked at Song Li’s hand. Apart from the burn on the back of her hand, her index finger was also very red and swollen.
The first time he had an advanced fever when he was young, Song Li wanted to lower his temperature, but she was afraid that the ice would freeze him, so she covered the ice with her hand and placed her cold hand on his forehead.
This repeated. His advanced fever subsided, but Song Li’s hand also developed problems from then on.
Every winter, it would be extremely itchy, red and swollen. If it was serious, the skin would even crack.
Shangguan Yu seemed to have been scalded. He retracted his gaze and pursed his lips. “Mother, I’ll visit you another day.”
This time, Song Li also sensed that he had something on his mind. She sighed and instructed, “Su Yun, send Yu’er off.”
Su Yun agreed and followed Shangguan Yu out of the main hall.
“Fortunately, His Highness remembers. Otherwise, Miss would have suffered again.”
Shangguan Yu smiled bitterly. “Mother did it for me.”
Before he could finish, a violent sound suddenly came from a room beside him. Shangguan Yu paused.
“It’s Imperial Concubine Liu.” Su Yun explained in a low voice, “Ever since she entered this cold palace, she has been running to the door all day demanding to see His Majesty. When she heard that Lord Jing was gone, she became crazy. The guards were annoyed by her, so they locked her in the house and didn’t let her out.”
“Then won’t she disturb Mother’s rest?” Shangguan Yu asked worriedly. Su Yun shook her head indifferently. “It’s fine. She is able to rest if she’s tired.”
Shangguan Yu nodded in understanding. Coincidentally, they had arrived at the entrance of Weiyang Palace. He stopped in his tracks. “Aunt Su Yun, go back. I’ll have to trouble you to take care of Mother.”
“I understand.” After thinking for a moment, Su Yun continued, “If His Highness has anything troubling him, you can tell Miss. Although Miss can’t go out yet, she’s still His Highness’s mother. Just like when His Highness was young, even if she risked her life, Miss would protect His Highness.”
Shangguan Yu clenched his fists under his sleeves and said gently, “I’m fine. Aunt Su Yun, go back quickly. Don’t let Mother worry.”
Su Yun glanced at him and bowed.
Shangguan Yu lowered his eyes and turned to leave Weiyang Palace.
Lianshan had been waiting outside. When he saw him come out, he quickly went up to him. “Your Highness.”

Shangguan Yu did not even look at him and strode away.
Lianshan was stunned for a moment before quickly following.
There was a small path outside Weiyang Palace. On both sides of the path were rockeries, and rarely anyone passed by.
As soon as he walked into the path, Shangguan Yu’s expression suddenly changed. He held onto the rockery and vomited.
Lianshan was shocked and quickly went over to help him. “Your Highness, what’s wrong? I’ll call the imperial physician.”
Shangguan Yu turned around and glanced at him coldly. Lianshan immediately fell silent.
In Lianshan’s memories, Shangguan Yu was magnanimous and never got angry. He was the best master.
This was the first time he had seen such an expression on Shangguan Yu’s face. Lianshan even thought that he had seen wrongly.
Shangguan Yu spat out everything he had just eaten. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth. He casually threw the handkerchief away and took out a piece to wipe his fingers carefully.
Noticing that Lianshan was still in a daze, he asked emotionlessly, “What did you see just now?”
“Your Highness, you…” Halfway through his sentence, he realized something and quickly lowered his head. “I didn’t see anything.”
Shangguan Yu glanced at him. “Clean up this place.”
“Yes.” Lianshan heaved a sigh of relief. For some reason, he felt like he had survived a disaster.
After leaving the palace, Shangguan Yu returned to the residence.
There was a courtyard in Lord Xian’s residence called the Sunset Moon. It looked like there was only one more building compared to the other courtyards. There were no guards at the door, but it could be considered a forbidden area in Lord Xian’s residence.
Apart from Shangguan Yu himself, almost no one had stepped foot inside. The servants arranged to sweep inside usually did not go out.
After dismissing the servants, Shangguan Yu went straight to the building.
There were three floors, and there was only one room on the top floor.
Pushing open the door, one could see a memorial tablet inside. On it was written, “The memorial tablet of my late mother, Nangong Xia.”
At this moment, a middle-aged man was standing in front of the memorial tablet with his hands behind his back.
Shangguan Yu paused and walked forward to ask, ‘When did you come?” “I just arrived.” The man did not turn around.
Shangguan Yu did not say anything else. He took three incense sticks from the table and lit them. He knelt down and kowtowed three times on the futon in front of the offering table. Then, he inserted the incense into the incense burner.
There were three other half-burnt incense sticks inside. It could be seen that the man was not lying. He had indeed just arrived..
