Yun Shang and Qian Yin both looked a little bad. If there were no maids in the palace, where did the maid from yesterday come from, and how did she get through and enter the new house?
"Manager, could you please bring over the person who was originally scheduled to come to the new house yesterday to deliver food?" Yun Shang said with a stern face. Could it be that the medicine to induce labor was put in her food? However, that Wen Po obviously
It was said that the fragrance on her body was different. Moreover, if someone had indeed tampered with the food, and the food had already been eaten, the dishes and chopsticks would have been washed long ago, and there would be no way to investigate.
The steward quickly responded and gave the order.
Not long after the messenger left, Prince Jing came back. Yun Shang saw that he was dressed in a suit that made him tall and tall, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. She felt as if a string had been gently plucked in her heart.
.
As soon as Prince Jing entered the door, he noticed that the people in the room looked a little bad. Prince Jing glanced at Yun Shang and saw that she looked a little pale and was standing still. She seemed to have no intention of explaining, so he turned his attention to the housekeeper again.
.
The housekeeper hurriedly explained the matter. Prince Jing frowned slightly, his face gradually turned cold, "Let the secret guards in the yard each go and collect twenty boards first."
The butler responded.
Yun Shang frowned slightly, "The matter has not been investigated clearly, so we will be punished..."
Before he could speak, Prince Jing shook his head and said, "No matter what the reason is, they have neglected their duties by letting a stranger approach the new house. If the maid had put other things in the house, wouldn't the consequences be serious? Other things.
Everyone can be forgiven, but this matter must not be taken lightly."
Yun Shang opened her mouth, but finally fell silent. Firstly, this is his business, and people are his, so he naturally has the right to punish them. Secondly, this matter is indeed serious. If something really happened to the mother and concubine,
, it’s really hard for her to imagine.
Prince Jing gave the order and stopped worrying about the matter. "I'm going to wash up first." After saying that, he entered the inner room.
The housekeeper went to give instructions about punishment. Yun Shang was thinking about something when someone suddenly pulled her sleeves. Yun Shang turned her eyes and looked at Qian Yin, only to see her looking in the direction of the inner room with a sly look, "Princess, Prince
Go wash up, shouldn't you follow behind and wait on me?"
When Yun Shang heard this, her expression condensed slightly. She had been married in her previous life, so she naturally knew that she should go in and serve. However, she was a little hesitant. This marriage between her and Prince Jing...
When Qianyin saw Yun Shang suddenly startled, she couldn't help but became anxious. She lightly stamped her feet and said, "Princess, although you are a princess, you are now the prince's princess. If only this slave and sister Qin Yi knew about it,
That’s all, if others find out, I’m afraid it will be detrimental to the princess’s reputation.”
Seeing her anxious look, Yun Shang couldn't help but smile. Although she didn't respond, she turned around and walked towards the inner room. After hesitating for a moment, she entered the clean room.
Prince Jing's back was to Yun Shang and he was putting on his clothes. The undershirt had not yet been completely put on, exposing his wheat-colored shoulders. Yun Shang was slightly startled. He never thought that he would see such a scene, even though Prince Jing was injured before.
, she had already seen Prince Jing’s upper body, but she still had to admit that Prince Jing was really a beauty.
Sensing someone coming in, Prince Jing turned around and saw Yun Shang. He was slightly stunned. He turned around and put on the clothes slowly. Then he walked to the shelf where the basin was placed, took a handkerchief and wet it.
He wiped his face and said, "But something happened?"
Yun Shang bit her lip and thought for a long time before asking, "Uncle, can you allow Chang'er's secret guards to come into the courtyard and report the matter to Chang'er?"
Prince Jing wrung out the handkerchief, turned his head and looked at Yun Shang, looking up and down for a long time, "Are you feeling well?"
"Okay, okay." Yun Shang nodded repeatedly, "Besides, no matter you are sick or injured, moderate activity is good."
Prince Jing pondered for a moment and then nodded, "Okay, but before you are fully recovered, you can do it for at least half an hour every day."
Yun Shang's eyes widened in astonishment. When she heard Prince Jing say "Okay", she thought Prince Jing had agreed, but she didn't expect that there were conditions attached.
She sighed quietly, looking at Prince Jing's expressionless face, Yun Shang could only accept it silently, forget it, half an hour is better than nothing.
After Prince Jing finished washing, Yun Shang followed Prince Jing and walked out. When the housekeeper saw the two people coming out, he hurriedly greeted them, "Princess, the boy who delivered food to the princess yesterday disappeared."
"Gone?" Yun Shang and Prince Jing asked in unison. Yun Shang sighed. She had guessed this outcome early on. Since the other party had the ability, it would be enough to send someone to Prince Jing's Mansion to kill a witness.
It's just a piece of cake.
"Check." Prince Jing said coldly, his expression getting worse and worse.
The steward wiped his sweat, quickly responded and retreated.
"Let's go to the palace first and have a look. You were worried all night last night." Prince Jing turned around and said to Yun Shang.
Although it was a plain remark, Yun Shang couldn't help but blush slightly and nodded, "That's fine, I just happened to enter the palace to pay my respects to my father and mother."
King Jing then asked someone to prepare a carriage, and they entered the palace together.
Concubine Jin has indeed woken up. Although her face is still a little pale, she seems to be in good spirits. The Wen Po invited by Prince Jing yesterday is taking care of her. Yun Shang looked around and did not see Emperor Ning.
The figure frowned slightly, walked to the bed and sat down.
"How do you feel, concubine? Are you okay?" Yun Shang asked softly.
Concubine Jin smiled softly and nodded, took Yun Shang's hand and asked softly, "Nothing, did you scare Shang'er yesterday?"
When Yun Chang heard what Concubine Jin said, the tip of her nose couldn't help but feel sore, but she was afraid that Concubine Jin would worry, so she tried to control her emotions, shook her head and said, "No, it was Chang'er who was not good yesterday.
He violated other people's ways and caused his mother and concubine to suffer."
Concubine Jin knew that she was blaming herself, so she patted her hand and said, "Silly boy, Concubine Mother is now the living rake that everyone in the palace wants to get rid of. Everyone wants to come and shoot secret arrows, and it has nothing to do with Chang'er.
of."
Concubine Jin raised her eyes to look at Prince Jing, who had been standing not far away, and said with a smile, "Did Chang'er cause trouble to Prince Jing?"
"Shang'er is very good." Prince Jing said softly. Although his voice was quite soft, it was very concise.
Although it was concise, it was enough for Concubine An Jin. Concubine Jin looked at the two of them with a smile and nodded secretly, "That's good."
"Concubine, do you want to come back to Fengxing Palace to rest?" Yun Shang asked softly.
Concubine Jin nodded, the smile on her lips was a little sour, "This palace seems to be very unsuitable for me now. It's better to come to Fengcheng. I don't have so many worries. After two days, the fetal image will be more stable. I'll
Then we set off back to Fengcheng."
"That's fine." Yun Shang said softly, taking advantage of the time when Concubine Jin returned to Fengcheng, she would remove those people in the imperial city who were a threat to her mother and concubine one by one.
The two mother and daughter chatted for a while, and Concubine Jin became a little tired, so Yun Shang couldn't stay any longer, so she asked Qin Yi to take good care of her, and then left Qiwu Palace.
In the Qiwu main hall, the queen listened to the palace servants' return, threw the quilt to the ground angrily, and said sternly, "Well done! I don't want to think about who raised her. Now that she has found her biological mother, she
I don’t care, I don’t even know how to greet you when I get to Qiwu Palace, it’s so disrespectful.”
There was another woman in green clothes sitting in the room. She let the tea in the teacup splash onto her skirt without hesitation, but she just picked up the brocade handkerchief and wiped her mouth. She sighed and said, "Concubine Jin."
Your Majesty, something like that just happened yesterday, so the princess should be worried."
The Queen snorted coldly, but did not speak. The room was silent. The woman in green coughed lightly and said, "Now that the Emperor is holding the Queen in his arms, she has become the one who is at the heart of the Emperor..."
The queen's eyes fell on the woman in green, and she frowned slightly, "Ya concubine, how long has it been since the emperor went to your place?"
Yabi's expression froze slightly, and there was a bit of sadness in her smile, "Something has happened to Concubine Jin, how could the emperor have such thoughts? In fact, since the emperor heard that Concubine Jin was going to return to the palace last month, he
I don’t often set foot in the harem, I… I haven’t seen the emperor for a month.”
When the queen heard this, she felt even more resentful. She had to close her eyes and hide her emotions in her eyes. After a while, she opened them and said, "This is not a solution. You must find a way to let the emperor stay at your place..."
Concubine Ya's face froze slightly, she lowered her head and said, "I... I have to do my best, Your Majesty..." After saying that, she sighed faintly, "I'm afraid only Concubine Jin can do this in this palace.
The Emperor is worried."
The queen couldn't bear to hear such words. She frowned and interrupted her, "I'm worried. She, the concubine, has been in the cold palace for more than ten years."
The concubine did not speak, and the queen felt a little irritable. She could only wave her hand casually and said, "Go down. If you have nothing to do on weekdays, just think about how to keep the emperor by your side."
Concubine Ya agreed and slowly withdrew. The queen frowned slightly and sat for a while before speaking loudly, "Come here, let's change the tea." She had drank the tea several times and it had long lost its tea flavor.
She wanted strong tea. Such a bitter taste could remind her of her significance in this deep palace. "How long has it been since the emperor entered the main hall of Qiwu Palace..." The queen smiled bitterly. It had been too long, she
Can't remember.
She felt a little uneasy. The words Yun Shang said to her yesterday were engraved in her heart. Why did she seem to know so much about her affairs, even the matters in the Li Mansion... The queen became more and more worried.
Became irritable.
"Princess, princess, please wait for a moment, let the servant go in first to report." The voice of the palace servant came from outside, with a bit of anxiety.
Then Hua Jing's voice came, "Go away, do you have to report that this princess sees her mother?"
The queen's eyebrows twitched slightly, and her mind became even more irritable. Her daughter was obviously very well-behaved before. Although she has a bit of a bad temper, her embroidery skills and talents are among the best in the imperial city, which is also her pride.
But when did it become like this?
She did things completely without thinking, and she actually did such a sleazy thing with Cang Jue Qingsu of Yelang Kingdom, which made it almost impossible for her to gain a foothold in the court.
The queen was thinking in her mind, then she heard the bead curtain being lifted up, and Hua Jing's face appeared in front of the queen's eyes. Hua Jing seemed to be a little thinner, with dark blue eyes and an anxious look on her face.
The queen felt a faint pain in her heart, no matter what, she was her daughter.
"What's wrong? Are you yelling like this in the palace? If your father hears it, you will be reprimanded again. Have you committed many crimes recently? Do you have to ask your father to demote you to a commoner?"
The queen said angrily.
Hua Jing pursed her lips in grievance, and approached the queen and said, "Mother, please help Jing'er. That bitch Yun Shang is now married to Prince Jing. Prince Jing is not someone to be trifled with. My daughter is really staying in Ningguo."
If you can’t go down anymore, go and beg your father to let Chang’er follow Cangjue Qingsu to Yelang Kingdom.”
The queen rubbed her forehead and snorted coldly, "Cang Jue Qing Su Cang Jue Qing Su! I tell you, you'd better give up on this. You will never be able to marry into the Yelang Kingdom. Your father, the Emperor,
I won’t agree to it, and your grandfather will not agree to it.”
Hua Jing bit her lip, with tears in her eyes, "Mother, besides Cang Jue Qingsu, who else is willing to marry my daughter now? Mother, who stays in the palace every day, naturally doesn't know that among the people in the imperial city, her daughter is now
What's going on? They all say I'm shameless and wanton. Every time my daughter goes out, she gets pointed at, which makes me go crazy."
Hearing this, the queen couldn't help but sneered, looking at Hua Jing, "Now you know what it feels like to be scolded in the spine? How come you didn't know how to think about it before you did those things? If not
You have created such a big problem. Now it is so difficult for me to do things in the palace? Do you think you are the only one who will be criticized by others outside the palace? Although I am the queen, it is only because of you, those concubines,
Even the people in the palace, who are respectful to me on the surface, turn their heads but don't know how to make fun of me. Now you come and tell me that you want to go to Yelang Kingdom. It's better for you. Once you leave, what do you want me to do?"
Hua Jing has been very noble since she was a child, but in the past half a year, she has experienced all kinds of sufferings. She was ugly when she was forced by Cang Jue Qingsu, and she was terrified after knowing that she was pregnant. Later, she was tricked by Yun Shang's despicable hoof.
She stayed in prison for more than two months. During those two months, she hated her every day and thought about pulling out the muscles in that bastard's hoof. However, she didn't want to think that after she came out, she didn't do anything and did it in front of everyone.
She had a miscarriage, and everyone knew that she was a promiscuous woman, and that she was pregnant even though her husband-in-law was not around. She dreamed every night that many people pointed their noses at her and scolded her, and she was really going crazy.
After entering the palace, he was scolded by his mother like this, and his heart was so depressed that he almost went crazy. Looking at his mother with cold eyes, Hua Jing couldn't help laughing, "Haha, no? Can you respect me?"
What do I think? I didn’t want to marry before, but you forced me to marry Zhao Yingjie. I accepted it, but now you don’t allow it? Why? "
The queen frowned, and was so angry at Hua Jing's rebellious words that her chest felt tight, "Why? Everything you have was given to me by this palace, why do you think so?"
Hua Jing gave the queen a cold look, turned around and rushed out.
The queen felt as if a piece of ice had been put into her heart. She couldn't help but shiver because of the cold. This is the daughter she has taught. She is so good!
"Come here, ask someone to keep Princess Hua Jing under surveillance. She is not allowed to leave for a moment." She knew that Prime Minister Li was going to do a big thing recently, and now it was at a critical juncture. She must not let Hua Jing ruin it, otherwise, she would really
There was no way to save her.
As soon as Prince Jing and Yun Shang returned to Prince Jing's Mansion, the manager ran up to them and said, "My lord and princess, Mrs. Bai wants to see you."
Mrs. Bai Yun Shang turned her head and looked at Prince Jing.
Prince Jing said softly, "Mrs. Bai is the shopkeeper of the Qixiang Pavilion in the city. Yesterday, I asked someone to bring the spices you used to Mrs. Bai. She is here to tell us the results. You and I
Let’s go and have a look together.”
Yun Shang nodded and followed Prince Jing to the front hall.
There was a young woman sitting on the chair in the front hall, wearing a woman's bun. She was not very beautiful, but she had a calm and unhurried aura. Yun Shang couldn't help but take a second look. Just then she heard from Prince Jing.
Upon introduction, she thought Mrs. Bai was a woman in her forties, but she didn't expect that she was so young.
Seeing Prince Jing and Yun Shang entering the door, Mrs. Bai, who was sipping tea, slowly put down her teacup, stood up, bowed to the two of them, and said calmly, "Your Majesty, Princess."
Yun Shang became even more curious. Even though she didn't go out often, she had heard of the reputation of Qixiang Pavilion. She heard that the rouge and gouache made there had a unique and long-lasting aroma, and the owner was a good dancer.
Qixiang Pavilion is running smoothly. Look at how she looked when she saw Prince Jing and herself just now. She didn't have a hint of flattery or nervousness. Her movements and sounds were neither fast nor slow, and she was very calm.
When Mrs. Bai saw Prince Jing and Yun Shang sitting down on the throne, she cupped her hands and said, "Although the powder that Princess put on yesterday came from my Qixiang Pavilion, there is something in the thing sent by the prince yesterday.
It is something that was not found in the original powder, called Yixiang. Although this kind of thing is called Yixiang, it has no fragrance at all. So it is difficult to smell it just by smelling it. It's just that the stuff is not ground finely, and it has no fragrance at all.
Compared with the originally very smooth powder, it is easy to identify. Because of the addition of Yixiang, the box of powder is slightly rough. Ordinary people can't tell it. Women can only identify it because they have been dealing with powder for a long time.
come out."
Yun Shang nodded, "What does Yixiang do?"
Madam Bai frowned slightly, "Speaking of it, there is actually nothing special about this Yixiang. It almost has no special use at all."
"Oh?" Yun Shang fell silent. Since he had tried so hard to add Yixiang to the powder, but it had no effect, what was it for?
Prince Jing suddenly spoke, "It's useless if used alone. So, if used together with other things, will it have any special effect?"
Yun Shang squinted her eyes. This was somewhat possible. Although medicine to induce labor was rare, it was nothing special. When the couple got married yesterday, there were many medical practitioners present. If Yun Shang had it,
There's no reason why everyone can't see it if it's contaminated with something like this.
"The commoner women don't know about this. They're afraid they'll have to find a doctor to take a look." Mrs. Bai said in a low voice. (To be continued)
