Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 1552: 1552: The Old Emperor’s Great Uncle

“The poison is resolved, but his advanced age means his health has plummeted as a result. He will need to recover slowly,” An Jiuyue said softly after glancing at Eldest Brother Yan.

“Here is the antidote. Gather all the poisoned people in the palace together, and have someone light the antidote,” she instructed.

“Okay.”

Eldest Brother Yan responded and turned his head to look at a guard.

The guard understood and immediately took the porcelain bottle from An Jiuyue’s hand and hurried outside.

Meanwhile, Eldest Brother Yan stepped forward and looked at the pale Prince You.

“He really dared to do this, how could he be so bold?” An Jiuyue could only hear these words from Eldest Brother Yan’s mouth after a long time.

“Hey.”

An Jiuyue tugged at Qian Jiyun’s sleeve.

Qian Jiyun looked at her, aware of the doubts in her heart, and led her outside.

“Who exactly is this Prince You?” An Jiuyue asked softly.

The Retired Emperor… Ah, no, the Late Emperor has long been gone, which is something all the citizens of Daqing Kingdom know. Furthermore, the old man inside doesn’t match the Late Emperor in age.

“Prince You was the great-great-uncle of the old emperor, and also the great-great-uncle of Eldest Brother Yan,” Qian Jiyun explained.

“Ah.”

An Jiuyue choked on her words.

She knew some of the history of the Daqing Kingdom and knew that the old emperor’s grandfather had received the throne from his own brother, Prince You.

But it wasn’t due to any infighting within the royal family over the throne, but because Prince You became mentally incapacitated due to an illness, which burned his wits away; there were even rumors that many court physicians were executed because of Prince You’s condition.

So, Prince You was only incapacitated but was still cared for in the palace.

“It seems you all care a great deal for Prince You?”

She had a hunch that there were still secrets tied to Prince You.

“It’s not so much concern, but rather that Eldest Brother Yan was raised by Prince You,” Qian Jiyun said.

“What?”

An Jiuyue was stunned. What did he mean by Eldest Brother Yan was raised by Prince You? What was this all about?

“Eldest Brother Yan’s mother died early, and he wasn’t important to the old emperor, nor was he favored by the Empress Dowager. It was Prince You who took him to Jingyang Palace and raised him. That’s why Eldest Brother Yan cares deeply for Prince You and sees him as his only family,” Qian Jiyun elaborated.

“Prince You… didn’t you say his mind was burned away?” An Jiuyue, still confused, asked.

“Cough, you can’t speak of it like that. Although Prince You is incapacitated, he only has the mind of a child. He can’t handle government affairs, but in other respects, he can take care of himself,” Qian Jiyun said, coughing lightly.

Since Prince You was family to Eldest Brother Yan, it would not be respectful to say anything too disparaging.

With so many palace servants, if they couldn’t even properly care for Prince You, what use were they? And taking care of Eldest Brother Yan was just incidental.

Although Prince You was older, he was exceptionally close to Eldest Brother Yan. If he didn’t see Eldest Brother Yan every day, he would cry incessantly.

This indirectly caused the old emperor to send Eldest Brother Yan directly to Jingyang Palace to be raised by Prince You. The two of them, one old and one young, had depended on each other for many years.

“I truly didn’t expect the old emperor to be so audacious as to even target Prince You!”

“He’s gone mad,”

An Jiuyue closed her eyes and said.

“Eldest Brother Yan will stay here to take care of Prince You; let’s go see the old emperor.”

“Alright.”

When Qian Jiyun mentioned the old emperor, a flash of light passed through his eyes.
