When Qi'er walked in from the outside, she saw Princess Anyang sitting in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the shadow in the mirror dreamily.
She stood at the door, wrung her hands together, looked at Princess Anyang, and whispered: "Princess, Mr. Tang insists on coming in, and you can't stop him..."
Princess Anyang waved her hand and did not mean to care about the matter. She looked back at her and asked: "Is there anything different about me today?"
Mei'er looked at her and shook her head in confusion.
Princess Anyang coughed lightly and said, "Let me remind you, my eyes, my eyes are different from before..."
Zhuier suddenly realized it and said: "The princess's eyes are swollen, do you want me to ask the kitchen to boil two eggs..."
"Stupid girl!" Princess Anyang glared at her angrily and said, "You don't understand anything!"
Mei'er stood there with a silly smile. Princess Anyang glanced at her angrily, "Why don't you come here and help me dress up? I have to go to the palace..."
…
When Tang Ning returned home, she learned that her father-in-law, Shangshu Zuo Cheng, had been appointed.
In three years, he went from a small local county magistrate to a powerful official in Shangshu Province, just below the two prime ministers. In the entire court, Tang Ning was probably the only one who could rise faster than him.
Chen Yuxian put vegetables in Zhong Mingli's bowl and muttered: "Do you think His Majesty took the wrong medicine? How long have you been a Jingzhao Yin? Why do you want to be Minister Zuocheng again?"
Zhong Mingli glanced at her and said, "Don't talk about His Majesty behind your back. It will be troublesome if others hear you!"
Chen Yuxian looked at Tang Ning again and asked, "Ning'er, how does Master Zuo Cheng usually get promoted?"
Tang Ning put down her chopsticks and said, "Zuo Cheng usually serves for five years. If there are no major mistakes, he will be transferred to one of the six departments as minister. He will stay in the position of minister for another five years. If there is an opportunity, he will be appointed as official or minister.
He is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and he is very likely to become the prime minister in the future."
Chen Yuxian has roughly understood that although the official position of Shangshu Zuocheng is the same as that of Jing Zhaoyin, he is prepared for Shangshu and prime minister. Although she is not an official, she also knows that her husband's transfer in recent years is by no means a normal promotion, and she is a little worried.
He looked at Tangning and asked, "Is there any problem with this?"
Tang Ning shook her head and said, "Not yet. It's just that the king is old. The power exercised by Zuo Cheng, the minister, is actually the power of the prime minister. There are more errands than before. Every decision is related to the national economy and people's livelihood of Chen State..."
After hearing this, Chen Yuxian looked at Zhong Mingli again and said, "Did you hear that? In the future, you should be more careful in Shangshu Pavilion and don't cause trouble for Ning'er again..."
Zhong Mingli nodded vaguely, only focusing on eating and did not respond.
In the past, I didn't think anything of it in the Jingzhao Mansion. But now in the Shangshu Province, my father-in-law has become the son-in-law's subordinate. How should I call him in the Shangshu Province in the future?
Called Tang Xiang, where does his father-in-law's face go?
If you call her Ning'er, doesn't it mean that you have no respect for the prime minister?
Tang Ning didn't think as much as Zhong Mingli expected. He could just foresee that in the days when Wang Xiang and he were not in Shangshu Province, Shangshu Zuocheng would be the top leader of Shangshu Province, and he could live a good life as a prime minister.
…
Changning Palace.
Princess Anyang handed a letter and a porcelain vase to Zhao Man and said, "This is what he asked me to bring to you."
Zhao Man put the things away, hugged her arm, and said happily: "Thank you, Sister Anyang. When I escape, I will definitely repay you!"
Princess Anyang pinched her nose and said, "You are going to elope with him, how can you repay me?"
Zhao Man thought for a while and said: "Then I will let my husband repay you first!"
Speaking of "repay", Princess Anyang thought of the kiss she took the initiative to offer, her face turned red, but her tone was a little sour and she said: "I haven't married yet, so I am calling you husband-in-law so soon..."
Zhao Man was a little shy. Seeing that Princess Anyang looked haggard, she hurriedly changed the subject and said, "You don't look good. Are you sick? Do you want to ask the imperial doctor to take a look at you..."
"Isn't it because..." Princess Anyang subconsciously spoke out in anger, but in the middle of the sentence she felt something was wrong. She couldn't tell Zhao Man that the reason why she stayed up all night was because she was thinking about her lover brother all night long. Saying this about the two of them
It would be strange if sisters turned against each other.
"Okay, okay, I'm fine." She waved her hand, changed the subject, looked at Zhao Man, and said, "Tell me, how did you two meet..."
Zhao Man thought about the past with Tang Ning, her face turned red, she lowered her head and whispered, "Ah, why are you talking about this?"
"Tell me, don't be so stingy..."
"Well, okay then..." Zhao Man nodded and said, "Actually, at the beginning, we often quarreled, but later..."
In fact, Princess Anyang has watched Zhao Man and Tang Ning's journey together, and she also knows very well how much effort Tang Ning has made for the relationship between the two of them.
He went to Chu alone, risked his life, and brought her back from Chu after they were married. Now, in order to take her to elope, he did not hesitate to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor.
For a woman, if she has the perfect lover like this, what else can she ask for in a husband?
She just asked casually to change the subject. When she saw the happy expression on Zhao Man's face, the sadness in her heart became even stronger. Finally, she couldn't bear to listen any more. She stood up and said, "I'm going back first."
Zhao Man pouted and said, "I haven't finished talking yet."
"Go ahead and talk to your husband..." Princess Anyang reached out and touched her forehead, sighing secretly in her heart, and walked out of Changning Palace.
Shortly after Princess Anyang left, Zhao Man opened the envelope. After reading it, he threw it into the brazier and burned it.
She took out the porcelain bottle and poured a pill out of it...
…
Maintain the temple.
Chen Huang no longer needed help from others to walk. He walked slowly in the palace. He looked at Wei Jian who walked in and asked, "How is Man'er's illness?"
Wei Jian sighed and said, "The imperial doctor said we are not optimistic."
A trace of sullenness appeared on Chen Huang's face, and he said angrily: "This can't be cured, and that can't be cured. What are these imperial doctors doing? Do I care for them all for a living?"
Two days ago, Princess Zhao Man of Pingyang suddenly fell ill. After the diagnosis, the imperial doctor prescribed some medicine. However, after taking it for two days, her condition not only did not improve, but worsened. This is why Chen Huang was angry at this moment.
Wei Jian thought for a while and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Ling said that the princess may be suffering from lovesickness. Should we call Master Tang here?"
Emperor Chen frowned, and after thinking for a while, he finally said: "Declarate him to enter the palace."
Half an hour later, Tang Ning followed Wei Jian into Changning Palace. Wei Jian looked at him and said, "Master Tang, I will leave the princess to you..."
After he finished speaking, he looked at the eunuchs and maids in the palace and said, "You all should step aside and let Mr. Tang give the princess a good diagnosis and treatment."
After the eunuchs and maids in the palace left, Wei Jian closed the palace door, and Tang Ning walked to the bed. Even though she knew that everything was an illusion, she still felt heartbroken when she saw Zhao Man's face pale and weak as she lay on the bed.
When Zhao Man saw him coming in, he immediately got up from the bed and said happily: "I really even deceived the imperial doctor!"
The imperial physician had never seen this kind of medicine before, and the imperial physician Cheng Ling Yihong was his nephew. It was not difficult to create the illusion that she was seriously ill. What was difficult was how he took Zhao Man out of the palace.
If her illness can only be cured by the elders of the Gu tribe in Guizhou Province, although it is most direct to take her to Guizhou Province, Emperor Chen will definitely not believe it. In this case, he can only arrange a scene in which the princess fakes her death according to the plan.
Tang Ning comforted Zhao Man for a moment and then walked out of Changning Palace.
If he stayed here any longer, he would probably arouse suspicion from others. After all, no matter how long he checked his pulse, it would only take half an hour. There was no way anyone would suspect that he was doing anything else here.
When he returned home, he saw a man running from the street to the door of Tang Mansion from a distance. The man's clothes were in tatters and covered in dust. He had obviously traveled a long way.
Tang Ning walked over quickly, looked at the Beggar Clan elder who was sent to the Western Region to protect her mother and Tang Shui, and asked quickly: "Hong Qi, why are you here?"
