Because her clothes were stained with some wine, Yun Shang made an excuse and left the table first. Prince Jing quickly stood up, excused himself and left. The two of them left the palace together and took a carriage to the palace.
"Is the wine poisonous?" Luo Qingyan squinted his eyes, and a deep coldness spread in his eyes.
Yun Shang nodded, "That palace maid is smart. I have been drinking tea. If she had added wine early in the morning, I am afraid it would arouse my suspicion. At that time, everyone was looking at Minister Su and Princess Tai'an.
, she must have noticed that my eyes were not on the table, and then she boldly came to pour the wine. I didn't suspect it at first, but before she poured the wine, she changed the positions of my teacup and wine glass on the table.
So, I became suspicious, so I gave you a coded signal to ask you to speak out. After the wine was spilled, I was sure that the wine was indeed poisonous." Because the chopsticks in the palace are all made of silver, I just gave you a code.
, the chopsticks were slightly stained by the wine spilled on the table, and the color changed a little.
Luo Qingyan held Yun Shang's hand, frowned, and sighed, "After knowing my identity before, I also sent some people to Xia Kingdom, but the situation was not clear at that time, because they were not very useful.
Man. Now that we have just arrived, some people are pretending that we are not familiar with the place and are attacking you. It seems that I should transfer all my power to the Xia Kingdom as soon as possible. But other people who are eyeing us will definitely be careful.
, so it will take three months at the earliest. During these three months, Chang'er, you'd better stay in the house just because you're sick. If you're not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst."
Yun Shang smiled and narrowed his eyes, and said softly, "I think that because of this, we don't have to be so cautious. Today I can see that everyone at the table is testing us. Today the two of us are
The performance left them all confused, and they will definitely try their best to know what we have arranged in advance in Xia Kingdom. If we act timidly, it will arouse suspicion. It is better to have enough momentum and let them know.
Let them guess whether we are really powerful or a bluff."
Luo Qingyan pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly, "I listen to you." Then he turned his eyes and embraced Yun Shang, and said softly, "In the coming days, I'm afraid those queens, concubines, and princesses will have to harass you.
It's been a long time. You don't like to socialize. If you don't want to see me, just ask people back."
Yun Shang chuckled lightly, but knew in her heart that even if she didn't like it, she still had to learn these things, because she was no longer in Ningguo, and was no longer the noble emperor and princess, although she still sounded as noble as before.
, it’s just that the concubines in the palace are nominally Luo Qingyan’s mother-in-law. Some of those princesses are Luo Qingyan’s aunts and some are sisters. Which one can be easily offended? They have just arrived in Xia Kingdom. What will happen next?
Also, the women in the harem all have intricate relationships with the previous dynasties, and they are still completely unaware of them.
After returning to the mansion, it was quiet for two days. Yun Shang asked the housekeeper to allocate the original servants. He only had to look at the account books every day. The rest of the time, he held the information booklet of the famous family in Xia Kingdom.
look in.
Luo Qingyan had a title, so he had to get up early every day to go to court. Yun Shang also got up at that time. She was not used to it in the first two days. She yawned all day long, but now she is gradually getting better.
Get used to it.
"Princess, Princess Qianling is here." Qianyin hurriedly walked in and said softly.
Princess Qianling? Yun Shang was silent for a moment. Princess Qianling is twelve years old now. She is the seventeenth daughter of Concubine Yun. She is said to be very lively. She was the first person to visit her after the palace banquet.
, and I don’t know what the purpose is.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a girl's voice outside, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, is my sister-in-law in the house?"
Yun Shang frowned, he was indeed very lively. Thinking in his mind, he handed the booklet in his hand to Qianyin, took a female book from his hand, and said loudly, "Princess Qianling, please come in.
.”
"Sister-in-law is indeed in the house." As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the sound of footsteps, which was very cheerful. The bead curtain sounded. Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked towards the door, and saw a face carved with pink and jade appearing in the bead curtain.
Between the curtains, a pair of big eyes were spinning. He was holding the bead curtain and looked into the room. When he saw Yun Shang, he let go of his hand holding the bead curtain, jumped forward, and walked away with a smile.
He came to Yun Shang and asked, "What are you doing, sister-in-law?"
Before Yun Shang could answer, she saw Princess Qianling standing on tiptoes and looking at the book in Yun Shang's hand, but she frowned and said, "Look at the Nvze? What's so good about the Nvze?"
Yun Shang was about to open her mouth when Princess Qian Ling patted her head again and said, "By the way, sister-in-law must not know who I am yet. My name is Qian Ling, and sister-in-law can also call me Xiao Qi."
Yun Shang smiled, and after hearing that Qian Ling seemed to have no intention of speaking again, she spoke. However, she was not talking to Princess Qian Ling, but told Qian Yin who was standing beside her, "Go and give Qian Ling some advice."
Princess Ling, please pour me a cup of fruit tea, and bring some of the pastries you made earlier to Princess Qianling."
When Qian Ling heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, "I was sick during the palace banquet that day, and my mother-in-law didn't let me go. Later, I heard from Sister Jiu that my sister-in-law is very beautiful, so today my mother-in-law finally allowed me to go."
I left the palace, so I hurriedly ran here to see my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law is really as beautiful as a fairy, and I know Qianling’s favorite food. My sister-in-law is so kind."
Yun Shang looked at Princess Qianling with a smile and said softly, "The chefs in the palace are all very good at cooking. Why don't they seem to give you food?"
"Didn't you give me something to eat? Because I'm sick these days, those people from the Royal Medical Palace are really annoyed. They don't allow me to eat this or that, which makes me very depressed." Qian Ling blinked.
Blinking his eyes, he looked at Yun Shang, "Sister-in-law, I heard that Ningguo eats a lot. You are the princess of Ningguo, so you must have eaten a lot of delicious food, right?"
Yun Shang chuckled lightly, "That's not true. I spent seven years in the temple before I was fifteen, and I couldn't eat any meat."
Upon hearing this, Qian Ling stared at Yun Shang for a long time with a very pitiful look, "Temple, the temple's vegetarian food is so unpalatable, my sister-in-law is really working hard."
As he was talking, Qianyin brought a plate over with a cup of fruit tea and some pastries on it. Qian Ling was not polite and didn't even look at the fruit tea. He grabbed a pastry and ate it, his eyes sparkling.
, "What kind of pastry is this? It tastes great."
Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked at it, "It's osmanthus cake. I have always liked to eat osmanthus cake. The osmanthus cake in Yumanlou in the Ningguo Imperial City is one of the best, and it is one that I am very reluctant to part with, so I brought the chef from Yumanlou with me."
Come over here."
"It's delicious, it's delicious." As he spoke, he finished one piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Qian Ling ate several more pieces before picking up the fruit tea and drinking a large bowl of tea.
After eating a plate of osmanthus cakes, Qian Ling suddenly screamed badly.
She looked at Yun Shang pitifully and said, "Sister-in-law, can you take me back to the palace? If the mother-in-law wants to punish me, seeing that my sister-in-law is here, she will definitely give me some face."
Yun Shang's hand while turning the book paused slightly, and a flash of thought flashed in her eyes. It turned out that this was what she had in mind. I guess it was because she had not left the palace in the past few days, so someone must have been anxious.
"Sister-in-law must not bear to have me beaten by my mother-in-law." Qian Ling blinked and looked at Yun Shang.
Yun Shang smiled slightly and stood up, "Okay, I'll take you back to the palace." After saying that, he handed the book to Qianyin.
Qianyin put the book away and followed Yun Shang out of the palace.
Concubine Yun Gui lived in Yunqi Palace. The palace was full of orchids and was very elegant. The palace people went in to report. Yun Shang took Qian Ling's hand and walked in. She heard a woman say gently and softly, "Qian Ling."
He must have gotten into trouble, that naughty boy."
As soon as he finished speaking, a somewhat familiar voice came out, "No, Qian Ling is so smart, how could he get into trouble?"
It's the queen.
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes, but she never thought that the Queen was there. She thought it was just Concubine Yun who wanted to see her for something, but now that she saw it, she had to think a little more.
"The Queen Mother is absolutely right, Qian Ling is so smart and lovely, how could he get into trouble?" Qian Ling pulled Yun Shang quickly into the palace and said loudly, her voice was clear and clear, making everyone in the palace look over.
Yun Shang glanced around and saw that there were not only Concubine Yun Gui and the Queen, but also many concubines in the palace.
Yun Shang walked over and saluted, "I have met the Queen, the Imperial Concubine, and all the other empresses, Jin An."
"Get up and move a chair for Princess Rui." The queen ordered softly, her eyes falling on Yun Shang. After Yun Shang sat down, the queen said with a smile, "Look at Princess Rui's appearance, how can she compare to all of us sisters?"
They are all compared to each other."
Yun Shang lowered her head and did not answer, so Concubine Yun Gui spoke, "Not only her appearance, but also her character is excellent. She is elegant and quiet. No wonder Prince Rui loves him so much. Unlike my daughter-in-law, who only beats and beats
I am very interested in you, and every time I enter the palace, I cannot stay here for long, and I start to get impatient."
Yun Shang listened quietly, thinking that Concubine Yun Gui had a son, ranked sixth, and her daughter-in-law should be the daughter of General You.
The queen smiled and asked Yun Shang softly, "Are you used to it in the Xia Kingdom? I heard that you haven't left the house in the past few days, but you are feeling unwell?"
Yun Shang lowered her head, with a smile on her lips, "To tell you the Queen, everything is fine, and I am not used to it. It's just that we have just settled in, and things in the house are messy and need to be taken care of. I have been a little busy recently."
"Oh?" The Queen raised her lips, "Speaking of which, Prince Rui should also call me Queen. You have just arrived. If there is anything that you are busy with, just tell me. Do you still have enough people in the palace?
I heard that you only brought thirty-six servants with you when you came?"
Yun Shang nodded, "Yes, the servants don't need too much. Both the prince and I don't like to have too many people serving us, so just enough is enough."
"I also said that I would give you some people from the palace maids. Since I don't like the crowd, let's forget it." The queen said casually, "If the palace has been settled, you can go to the palace more often."
Yun Shang softly responded yes.
As they were talking, a palace attendant came in and saluted the queen, "Queen, your Majesty heard that Princess Rui is in Yunqi Palace, and asked your servant to invite Princess Rui to the Xiangzhu Palace." (Not finished yet.)
