Jiang Xuanjun asked someone to send pastries to the East Palace, and the matter soon spread to Fengxiang Palace.

At this time, Empress Feng was discussing with Zhou Fengxi and several princesses about choosing a candidate for Chongxi for Yan Jingnian.

"Queen Mother, is there any girl who has gone to the East Palace?" asked the third princess Jiang Xuanyue curiously.

"I can't. Empress Feng hesitated, "Your eldest brother is so big, this palace has never seen him get close to a young lady." He added, "Besides, Jing Nian hasn't woken up yet, how can he have the heart to greet any girl." ”

"But the eldest brother doesn't like to eat pastries, and the concubines in the East Palace haven't heard of anyone who likes to eat them. ”

Jiang Xuanjun's age was there, and Empress Feng had already arranged someone to warm the bed. At present, the more favored is the Lu Baizhi he brought back from Xu Yang.

Considering Jiang Xuanjun's weak body and difficult heirs, Empress Feng did not give medicine to a few people, but after so many years, there is still no news from the few people around Jiang Xuanjun. Therefore, Empress Feng is now very anxious to let Zhou Fengxi enter the East Palace, so that Jiang Xuanjun can choose some more high-grade concubines

Jiang Xuanyue curiously took the initiative to ask, "Queen Mother, why don't you go over and investigate?"

Empress Feng glanced at Zhou Fengxi, and saw that her expression was indifferent, and she didn't look jealous at all, so she nodded secretly, this daughter-in-law chose well. Although she has been fighting with a group of women in the harem all her life, she doesn't want Jiang Xuanjun's backyard to be a mess.

However, she is really curious about who can win her son's favor, not to mention entering the East Palace as a guest, but also asking her son to personally order someone to prepare pastries?

"Then you go with the fifth child. ”

"Empress," Before Jiang Xuanzhu could reply, Zhou Fengxi stood up, "Please go with the third princess." "She, the prospective crown princess, must know who the other party is, right?

"This ......," Empress Feng hesitated.

"Queen Mother," Jiang Xuanyue said, "just let Miss Wednesday go with Erchen and the fifth sister?"

"Well, let's go check it out. However," Empress Feng did not forget to advise, "If your eldest brother doesn't want you to disturb, don't stay long." "She still knows her son's temper.

Cui Zhiwei didn't expect Jiang Xuanjun to ask someone to prepare pastries for her, but with Cui Zhili here, she was not afraid that the pastries would be poisoned like in her early years.

Not to mention, she still misses a little bit after not eating palace pastries for many years. So he beckoned Cui Zhili, who was sitting and chatting with her as a rest, to eat together.

The two were eating energetically, and someone came to report that there was an old friend who wanted to see Cui Zhiwei.

"Who?" Cui Zhiwei was a little puzzled, "I don't seem to know anyone in the East Palace except for the prince's brother." ”

The person replied: "It's the little master of Lu Baizhi Road." ”

"It turned out to be her!" Cui Zhi smiled, "Don't say it, it's really an old friend, I haven't seen her for many years." Quick, please let her in. ”

Seeing Lu Baizhi again many years later, she is much more beautiful than before, which may be related to the maintenance in the past few years.

"The concubine has seen Anyang County Jun and the third son. "Even if she was a concubine for Jiang Xuanjun, before the crown princess entered the door, she hadn't been promoted to a higher position, so Lu Baizhi took the initiative to salute the two after seeing Cui Zhiwei and Cui Zhili.

is also due to her special status, Cui Zhiwei and Cui Zhili turned sideways and did not fully accept her gift. Cui Zhiwei said: "Sister Lu is too polite, our brothers and sisters dare not accept your courtesy." ”

Lu Baizhi smiled, "The concubine has a humble status, why can't the county monarch and the third prince stand it?"

Cui Zhiwei smiled, "We haven't seen each other for many years, so you're welcome, it's too rusty." ”

"yes! We haven't seen each other in eight years. She has also been with Jiang Xuanjun for eight years, and Lu Baizhi can't help but sigh.

"I don't know if Sister Lu is here this time to catch up, or is there something else?" Cui Zhiwei was not used to playing with others, and he didn't want to waste time, so he asked straight to the point.

"Well, it's both. Lu Baizhi didn't expect Cui Zhiwei to be so direct.

"These pastries taste good, do you want to try them, Sister Lu?" Cui Zhiwei invited the other party to eat pastries is the beginning of the old story, since the other party wants to talk, he has to show some sincerity.

"Okay!" Lu Baizhi has a special physique, and she is not afraid of poisoning, so in order to get closer to Cui Zhiwei, she stepped forward and chose a piece.

"It tastes really good. She praised while eating, "Don't look at the concubine who has been in the East Palace for eight years, but she rarely eats the pastries made in the imperial dining room." ”

"Why is this?" Cui Zhiwei was a little curious.

"The main thing is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't like it. In order to please Jiang Xuanjun, she has been trying to lean on each other for her preferences over the years.

"I see. "I'm afraid that the prince's brother not only disliked, but also related to the poisoning of him caused by her delivery of pastries in the early years.

"How has the county gentleman been all these years?" Afraid of the cold field, Lu Baizhi had nothing to say.

"Very good!" Cui Zhi replied with a smile, "Being in Xuyang is much easier than being in the capital." ”

"Yes, the days outside are always easier than in the capital. Thinking of the life she had been looking forward to, Lu Baizhi looked a little lonely. But life is much better now than in the past, and a smile blooms on her face again.

"What about Sister Lu?" Although he knew that the other party was waiting for her, Cui Zhiwei still asked as the other party wished.

"It's also good. But there are always some regrets. ”

Well, here's the point. Cui Zhiwei thought about it and boldly guessed: "Could it be that it is the matter of the heir?"

"The county gentleman is really smart, and he guessed it as soon as he guessed. Speaking of which, the concubine would like to thank you again to the people of your Hou Mansion, if it weren't for the holy fruit you gave the concubine, the concubine would still be hiding in Tibet, for fear of being discovered as a medicine man. ”

"This is the fate between us, and it is your own creation. ”

"Yes! It stands to reason that the concubine should be satisfied. But the concubine is still greedy and wants a child that belongs to the concubine and His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

"Do you want us to help you?" Cui Zhiwei is still very good at grasping the key points.

"Yes. Lu Baizhi nodded with difficulty, "The concubine really can't think of others, it's rare for the county monarch to come to the East Palace, so I cheekily came to you for help." ”

"But what can we do for you?"

"The concubine wants you to help find a medicine. "As a former medicine person, no one is more familiar with the herbs in this world than her.

"Mustard. Cui Zhili, who had never spoken, suddenly opened his mouth and these two words popped up.

"What is Mustard Spirit?" Cui Zhiwei looked at Cui Zhili, although he had a certain guess.

"It is also called borrowing, a medicine that can forcibly make a woman pregnant. ”
