Yun Shang turned her head and looked at the door, and saw the seventh prince walking into the house, followed by Hua Yutong, who looked a little pale. Yun Shang frowned, and the Duke's wife had already spoken: "It's so windy outside today.
It's a bit big, but I'm afraid it's also a bit cold. I just ordered someone to make ginger soup. Yutong, go and bring a bowl to the Seventh Prince to warm yourself up."
Yutong was stunned for a moment, then responded and retreated again with the maid.
The Duke's wife ordered the maid aside to move a stool for the Seventh Prince and let him sit down. Yun Shang sat quietly aside. The Duke's wife looked at the Seventh Prince indifferently, pondered for a moment, and then said
: "There are some things that should only be asked by Your Majesty and the Queen. However, Your Majesty and the Queen are too busy every day, and I am afraid they don't have time to ask these questions. I rely on being older than the Seventh Prince, and today I am
I just want to ask the Seventh Prince, I wonder if the Seventh Prince will blame him?"
The seventh prince seemed to be stunned, but his eyes did not look at the Duke's wife. Instead, he looked at Yun Shang aside. He was silent for a moment and then said: "The Duke's wife, just say so."
The Duke's wife smiled slightly, touched the Buddha in her hand, and said softly: "I heard that Yutong and the Seventh Prince have been close for ten days, and they haven't consummated their marriage yet?"
Yun Shang lowered her head and raised her eyebrows secretly, with a bit of a smile in her eyes. This move by the Duke and Madam was really cruel.
"After Xitang passed out, I haven't been in good health. I have called a doctor to nurse myself back to health these days. The matter of consummating the marriage is still a bit reluctant." The seventh prince's voice sounded a little soft, and he was afraid that no matter who it was, he would be forced to do so.
You would feel a little embarrassed if you said such words in front of others.
"Oh?" The Duke's wife caressed the Buddha's hand and paused for a moment, then turned her head and looked at Yun Chang and said, "Shang'er has always been good at taking care of his body, but is there any way to help the Seventh Prince take good care of himself?"
Yun Shang almost laughed out loud. After a while, she raised her eyes and thought for a while, "You can try food supplements. I vaguely remember reading in a book that stewing pork bones or lamb bones with cordyceps and longan is very effective.
But it’s just a recipe in a book, and I don’t know if it’s useful.”
"It doesn't hurt to give it a try. Later, you can write down the recipe and give it to Yutong, and ask her to go back and cook it for the Seventh Prince to see." Madame Guogong said calmly.
Yun Shang looked at the Seventh Prince with a slight blush on his face, but there was also anger in his eyes. Yun Shang smiled and said: "It's good to recuperate. Your Majesty felt that there were not many princes, and the prince died early."
There is only one young prince. Prince Rui and the Seventh Prince both got married late, and King Qi had many concubines, but they never had any heirs. The Seventh Prince is in his prime, and if he is properly nursed, he can bear fruit as soon as possible and produce many heirs.
"
The seventh prince's eyes fell on Yun Shang's abdomen, and he frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about it.
Yun Shang looked at his expression and knew that her words had touched his sore spot, so she smiled and stopped talking. The room became quiet, and Hua Yutong walked in with ginger soup and put the ginger soup in his hand.
The soup was placed in the hands of the Seventh Prince, "Your Majesty, please drink the soup."
The seventh prince nodded, picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
The Duke's wife asked Hua Yutong to sit down and was about to speak when she saw the housekeeper hurried in. She glanced at the people in the room and then spoke: "Old Madam, the Seventh Prince, the Seventh Prince's Mansion
problem occurs."
A hint of joy flashed in Yun Shang's eyes, but she hurriedly concealed it.
Everyone in the room looked at the housekeeper: "Something happened, what happened?"
The housekeeper said quickly: "Just now, the servants from the Seventh Prince's Mansion came to report that the Seventh Prince's Mansion was compromised."
"Walk into the water? How could a good person run into the water?" The Duke's wife frowned and stood up.
The Seventh Prince's expression changed, and he glanced at Yun Shang. Seeing Yun Shang's face with a look of surprise, he frowned a little tighter: "Please forgive me, Madam, something happened in the house."
, I’m afraid the princess and I have to go back home first.”
The Duke's wife responded repeatedly: "Go back, go back, go back quickly, the wind is strong today, and the fire is so strong that it will be difficult to contain it if the wind blows it."
The Seventh Prince quickly saluted and hurried out of the main hall, and Hua Yutong also hurriedly followed.
After the Seventh Prince and the others left, the Duke of Guo's wife turned to look at Yun Shang, "Is this a good thing you did? Or did you say it lightly?"
Yun Shang squinted her eyes and smiled, "You may have seen what grandma said. Chang'er came here after lunch today and has been playing chess with the seventh prince just now. The prince should be here too.
Let’s visit an old general in the court. When I went out today, the prince said that he admired the old general very much. He finally returned to Jincheng, so he wanted to pay a special visit. Besides, in this clear sky, who can?
It may be that the servants in the Seventh Prince's Mansion were not careful because of the dry weather and the fact that they had the courage to openly set fire to it."
The Duke's wife glanced at Yun Shang, "Are you still trying to lie to me with all your nonsense?"
Yun Shang smiled softly and did not answer.
After sitting for a while and chatting with the duke's wife, he left the palace and prepared to go back to the palace. The coachman drove the carriage over and stood aside waiting for Yun Shang to get on the carriage. He took a small drink and quietly took a step forward and whispered
Asking: "Princess, do you want to go to the Seventh Prince's Mansion?"
Yun Shang glanced around lightly, shook her head and said, "What's there to see? Why would I, a pregnant woman, join in the fun of such a thing? If I had gone, I wouldn't have thought it was a big deal."
We put it there."
Before Qianzui could speak, he suddenly exclaimed: "Ah, I seem to have forgotten my brocade handkerchief in my grandmother's house." After saying that, he ordered the coachman: "Wait here for a moment, Qianzui.
Come back with Qin Yi and me to look for it." After saying that, he turned around and entered the Duke's Mansion again.
"Princess..." Qianzuo said with some hesitation, "Isn't your brocade handkerchief held in your hand?"
Qin Yi pondered for a moment, then looked at the door and whispered: "Princess, what's wrong with the carriage?"
Yun Shang glanced at Qin Yi appreciatively, and her voice was tinged with coldness, "The coachman from our house who sent us here earlier may have been killed. Although the man outside just now was wearing the clothes of a coachman, and his face was covered with a hat.
He was covered tightly, but I'm afraid he didn't have time to change his shoes in a hurry, as his shoes are not something that a carriage driver can afford to wear."
Yun Shang thought in her mind that the carriage driver was probably replaced after the Seventh Prince left the palace. After the Seventh Prince left, she only chatted with the Duke and his wife for two quarters of an hour...
"Then Princess, why didn't you just let the slaves arrest the carriage driver for interrogation?" Qian Zui frowned, full of doubts in his heart.
Yun Shang smiled coldly, "Arrest him? This matter was most likely done by the Seventh Prince. Seeing how poorly prepared the coachman was, he knew that the Seventh Prince was just a temporary motive. The Seventh Prince left the palace and sent Shui.
I'm afraid he is here because he suspects that the fire has something to do with me. If I arrest him, won't it make the Seventh Prince more suspicious? Wouldn't it be better to take this opportunity to dispel his suspicion?"
Qian Zui looked at Yun Shang blankly, a little surprised in her heart. It was only a short time from leaving the palace to when the princess found an excuse to return to the Duke's palace. The princess had already thought of so much in such a short period of time.
things...
"Have a quick drink and send more secret guards to follow you all the way. You are also ready to take action at any time if the situation goes wrong." Yun Shang smiled, "This can be done, but you have to save your life."
Qianzuo hurriedly responded and left to make arrangements. The housekeeper in the Duke's mansion was a little surprised when he saw Yun Shang leaving and coming back. He hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Princess Rui, what happened?"
Yun Shang smiled and shook her head, and said softly: "Nothing's wrong, I just left in a hurry and forgot something. I'll just go look for it in the old lady's yard."
The housekeeper responded and stepped away. Yun Shang actually took Qin Yi to the old lady's yard for a walk. The Duke and Madam had already rested. The maid saw Yun Shang's face with a hint of sadness.
With a look of surprise, "The old lady has just rested, but the princess has something important to do. I will go and talk to the old lady now."
Yun Shang waved her hands repeatedly and said with a smile, "It's nothing serious. It's just that the brocade handkerchief is missing. I thought it was probably left in the house. I'll take a look."
Yun Shang said and entered the outer hall. Seeing that the maid at the door did not pay attention and casually threw the brocade handkerchief to the ground, Qin Yi quickly picked it up again, "Princess, it is really here."
"Yes." Yun Shang responded, "Fortunately, I found it." After saying that, he took Qin Yi out of the yard.
Qianzuo was already waiting at the door, nodded towards Yun Shang, and Yun Shang walked out.
The carriage was still waiting there, Qianzuo quickly stepped forward and opened the carriage curtain, and Qinyi helped Yun Shang get into the carriage.
"Let's go back to the palace." Qianzui and Qinyi followed suit and got into the carriage. Qianzui gave instructions softly before getting into the carriage.
The carriage started to move, and Yun Shang said softly: "I don't know if the prince has returned to his residence."
Qin Yi smiled and said: "The prince never returns home too late, and today he is just visiting the general."
"It's not like you don't know that the prince has always liked things like fighting, and he forgets about them as soon as he goes to the battlefield. If you have similar interests with the old general, it's not impossible to chat until you lose track of time." Yun Shang smiled, his voice was extremely relaxed.
Yes, but the ears and eyes are full of alertness.
The three masters and servants talked casually for a while, and Yun Shang suddenly said: "It seems that I haven't been to Qianshui Yiren Pavilion in person for a long time. I don't know if there is a shop open during the Chinese New Year. Why don't we go and have a look?"
Qian Zui didn't know why Yun Shang suddenly ordered like this, but he nodded and opened the carriage curtain. The carriage driver was very close to the curtain. Yun Shang smiled coldly and said, "Let's go to Qianshui Yiren Pavilion." (To be continued.)
