Before Yun Shang arrived at Qinxin Palace, someone from the palace hurriedly came to report: "Queen, Concubine Cao is awake."
Yun Shang nodded lightly. The imperial doctor said yesterday that Cao Shanxiu could wake up without any accident today, just as the imperial doctor expected. This also shows that no one touched Cao Shanxiu last night.
When they arrived at the Qinxin Palace, Yun Shang got off the chariot and entered the courtyard. There were two palace attendants leaning against the door frame and chatting at the door. When they saw Yun Shang coming, they hurriedly stood up straight and saluted hurriedly: "See the queen."
Empress, empress empress millennium."
Yun Shang's eyes swept over the two people who looked slightly nervous, her eyes were a little cold, but she did not speak after all.
After passing through the main hall and entering the dormitory, a palace maid was feeding Cao Shanxiu medicine. The fifteenth princess stood aside and watched, frowning slightly, looking around. Suddenly she saw Yun Shang, and then she looked back and lowered her eyes.
He stared at the hem of his skirt.
Yun Shang walked to the bedside, and Cao Shanxiu hurriedly tried to get up. Yun Shang quickly stretched out her hand to hold her down, and said with a gentle smile: "Concubine, there is no need to get up. You were poisoned yesterday because of my dance dress.
I am truly ashamed of you."
Cao Shanxiu said quickly: "Your Majesty, your words are serious."
Yun Shang said with a smile: "You were still awake when you came over from Wuyang Palace. Because you were worried, you walked a little hurriedly. I'll ask Qianzui to send some ginseng plants to replenish your health later." Yun Shang said with a smile.
Afraid that Cao Shanxiu would refuse, she spoke again before she could answer: "Concubine Cao has raised a good daughter. You have been poisoned these past two days, which makes Shi Shi worried. She has been there these past two days."
Taking care of you."
Cao Shanxiu was shocked and raised her eyes to look at Princess Fifteen. Fifteen curled her lips with a bit of disgust in her eyes: "Who is worried about taking care of her?" She snorted and walked out of the bedroom.
A hint of depression flashed in Cao Shanxiu's eyes, and the maid holding the medicine bowl on the side said quickly: "Concubine, the Queen did not lie to you. The fifteenth princess almost stayed up all night last night. She was afraid that something would happen to the Queen.
I didn’t even dare to sleep a wink at night.”
Cao Shanxiu turned around and looked at the palace maid, with a bit of disbelief in her eyes. Yun Shang raised her lips and smiled: "How can there be a daughter in the world who really dislikes her mother?"
Seeing that Cao Shanxiu didn't speak, Yun Shang thought for a while and said: "Before, you said that the only thing you wanted was for Princess Fifteen to marry a good family. It doesn't have to be a high-ranking official, as long as she is good to Fifteen. I
During this period of time, Haosheng has been doing a lot of searching in the court, and has chosen a few people with good character and talents. In the next two days, I will also have people collect their birthdays and horoscopes and send them over for you to take a look at.
.”
Cao Shanxiu lowered her head and responded in a low voice: "Thank you for your trouble, Queen Mother."
Yun Shang raised the corners of her lips and smiled, chatting with Cao Shanxiu for a while, then she and Qian Zhui left the Qinxin Palace and got into the Fengchao. Yun Shang ordered the palace attendants to carry her to Weiyang Palace.
"Who does the empress want the fifteenth princess to marry?" Qianzui asked, her eyes shining with curiosity.
Yun Shang glanced at her lightly, with a bit of joking in her eyes: "You don't care about other things, but you always care about such trivial matters."
Qian Zui stuck out his tongue and laughed: "I'm curious, slave."
Yun Shang shook her head, but there was some contemplation in her eyes: "The point is not who I want to marry the fifteenth princess."
"Ah?" Qianzui blinked, his eyes full of confusion: "This is not the point, so what is the point?"
Yun Shang's lips curled up: "Cao Shanxiu dotes on her daughter. I deliberately proposed marriage for the fifteenth princess, just to test Cao Shanxiu. The point is not who the fifteenth princess wants to marry, but whether Cao Shanxiu is willing to listen to me.
I have made arrangements to marry Princess Fifteen. If she is willing, it proves that she can trust me at all costs. I will naturally believe her and will definitely arrange the best home for Fifteen. But if she refuses,
Then how can I dare to believe her?"
Seeing that Qian Zui still had a curious look in her eyes, Yun Shang laughed: "Although the fifteenth princess is a little pampered, she is a princess after all. If your majesty and I show a little favor to the person you want to marry,
Concentration is also rushing towards it."
After thinking about it for a while, he realized that it was the same, so he stuck out his tongue and stopped asking.
As soon as she arrived at the gate of Weiyang Palace, Yun Shang saw Ning Qian standing in the courtyard, raising her head as if looking at something.
Yun Shang got off the phoenix chariot, walked to Ning Qian's side and raised her head. Apart from clouds and the occasional bird flying by, there was no special scenery in the sky.
"What are you looking at?" Yun Shang retracted her gaze and asked softly.
Ning Qian also turned her head and smiled softly: "I'm looking at the clouds. It's really spring. The clouds in the sky are a little warmer than in winter, like cotton wool."
Yun Shang raised his head and looked again. He really didn't see anything special, so he shook his head and curled his lips and said: "How come you have become so poetic and picturesque? Why didn't anyone report it when you came? What if?
I haven't come back, so you have to wait here forever?"
Ning smiled slightly and responded: "It's not a bad idea to keep waiting. It's good to look at the white clouds and flying birds. Ever since I left the palace, I always feel like the sky in the palace is framed."
Yun Shang glared at Ning Qian and said angrily: "You came here specifically to poke my heart, right?"
Ning Qian laughed when she heard the words, shook her head with a smile and said, "You are different. There is a man you love in this palace. Even this deep palace is like the Happy Valley of Gentleness to you."
"Listening to how you keep talking today makes me want to slap you. Let's go into the inner hall to drink tea." After Yun Shang finished speaking, he glanced at Ning Qian's protruding belly and shook his head.
He shook his head and said: "Forget it, you can't drink tea, just have a drink and prepare a cup of honey water for her."
Ning Qian didn't bother to refute, so she followed Yun Shang into the bedroom. As soon as the parrot saw Yun Shang coming in, it started to flap its wings: "Beauty, beauty."
Ning Qian raised her eyebrows, her eyes fell on the bird cage, and she said with a smile: "It's not like you taught me this."
After hearing this, Yun Shang walked to the bird cage and stretched out her finger to the side of the bird cage. When the parrot saw this, it stuck out its head and pecked it. Yun Shang shrank his hand, teased for a while, and then said: "It's natural that you understand me."
I didn't teach him this. Someone brought it to the palace yesterday, and Your Majesty gave it to me to relieve my boredom. It's a pity that this bird is a bit talkative, which makes people want to stew it."
The bird in the cage was extremely active and kept flopping around in the cage.
Yun Shang turned back and glanced at Ning Qian, "Have you never seen this parrot?"
Ning Qian shook her head: "There are some girls in Mingfeng Pavilion who like to keep these toys. I have no interest in them, and I don't let them keep them recently. I have to learn everything. If I accidentally learn it, I won't be able to do it."
It’s not a good thing to learn.”
Yun Shang laughed, with a bit of narrow-mindedness in her eyes: "Are you at the Mingfeng Pavilion lately? Isn't it a long time since you and Wang Jinhuan were warm and affectionate?"
Ning Qian glared at Yun Shang, covered her mouth and coughed lightly, then said: "Why do you become so outspoken?"
Yun Shang laughed loudly, but she heard the parrot behind her start to cry: "It's so empty without beauty."
Ning Qian's eyes widened, she looked at the parrot and clicked her tongue twice: "Isn't this what Luo Qingyan taught you?"
Before he finished speaking, he heard the parrot say again: "There is a tigress at home, a tiger, a tiger, a tiger. When the tiger gets angry, the ground shakes."
Yun Shang raised the corners of her lips and smiled, and the parrot's talkative nature was revealed again: "Beauty, I have already washed myself clean, why don't you come and sleep with me right away?"
Ning Qian was silent for a moment, then her face turned cold, and she snorted, "Isn't this parrot sent to the palace by Wang Jinhuan?"
Yun Shang couldn't help laughing, and while laughing, she pointed at Ning Qian and said: "The Mingfeng Pavilion is indeed very important, but we cannot ignore our prince because of this. Look, this complaint has been reported
We have arrived at His Majesty’s place.”
Ning Qian snorted coldly, and Yun Shang could almost hear the sound of grinding her teeth: "What a Wang Jinhuan."
After saying that, he rushed out of the dormitory regardless. Yun Shang laughed so hard that his stomach hurt, but he heard the bead curtain ringing again. Yun Shang put away his smile and raised his eyes, and saw Ning Qian standing at the door, touching her sleeves.
He took out a parchment ball and threw it to Yun Shang: "This is for you."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Yun Shang straightened up after laughing enough, opened the parchment, and her smile gradually faded.
Qianzui saw the change in Yun Shang's expression, hesitated for a moment, and then asked softly: "But what happened?"
Yun Shang shook his head, curled up his lips and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just that some courtiers who went to Mingfeng Pavilion to discuss things that shouldn't be discussed were overheard by the girls in Mingfeng Pavilion."
Qian Zui didn't know what Yun Shang was talking about that shouldn't be discussed, but just looking at Yun Shang's expression, he knew it was definitely not a good thing, and he felt a little worried in his heart.
"You think you are so beautiful, but you are actually scared to death." The parrot muttered something that made people want to laugh, but Yun Shang had no intention of laughing. Some things,
What should happen will always happen, but no matter what, before Luo Qingyan has made a decision, she will not let those messy things disturb him.
He built a wall for her to protect her from the violent storm outside. But she could not be the pear blossom in the wall, and the branches fell off when the wind blew.
She must learn to be a plum blossom that can proudly bloom in the harsh cold wind.
Yun Shang unfolded the parchment again. Ning Qian's handwriting on it was a bit forceful, as if it was trying to penetrate the back of the paper. But there were only a few words written on it: Xiahou Jing's defeat was a lie, to lure the enemy deeper. On the Qingming Festival
At that time, Xia Houjing united with the ministers of the court to spread the news that the queen was infertile and the prince was stupid. (To be continued)
