Not surprisingly, someone brought tonic soup over for dinner.

Yu Wu looked at the warm tonic soup and said with a smile: "Mama Yang, I have recently used the prescription sent by my family, and I am afraid that it will clash with the tonic soup, can I not use it for the time being?" ”

Mama Yang didn't smile at it, and said coldly: "Liangdi, this tonic soup is the doctor of the Tai Hospital, specially for the ladies in the East Palace to regulate their bodies, and a bowl is worth a thousand gold." If Liangdi is afraid of clash with other medicines, it is better to stop other medicines. ”

Yu Wu touched a soft nail, and could only drink it in one gulp, and after putting the bowl down, she looked at Mama Yang with a cold face.

Mama Yang watched Yu Wu finish drinking, and hurriedly bowed and retreated. So I didn't see it, after she left, Yu Wu spit out the unswallowed tonic soup in her mouth on the handkerchief, and carefully handed it to Sisi.

"You find an opportunity tomorrow to go back to the house, and ask your mother to ask Dr. Yuan to come and see quietly. Let's see if you can see what kind of tonic soup this is? What does it do? ”

Sisi saw that the young lady was very serious, and she didn't dare to be careless, so she carefully folded the handkerchief and put it in her sleeve.

Yu Wu supported his head with his hands, if it wasn't as he expected, there must be something wrong with this tonic soup. This is the reason why the woman has been in the backyard of the East Palace.

But why did the prince do this? Yu Wu has never figured it out.

That night, Yu Wu carefully and diligently served Yan Rongling. Afterwards, I couldn't sleep.

Yan Rongling felt that the woman in her arms had been arching back and forth, and said with rare tenderness: "Wu'er, what's wrong?" The spirit is still so good, do you want to do it again? ”

Yu Wu buried his head in the crook of Yan Rongling's arm, and said half-truthfully: "The prince laughed at the concubine, and the concubine just thought that she used tonic soup tonight, and she only hoped that she would be lucky enough to conceive a child." It's not in vain that the prince loves him. ”

Sure enough, when Yu Wu talked about tonic soup, he felt Yan Rongling's body stiffen for a moment.

Yan Rongling said lightly: "Children are fate, maybe the orphan's fate is later." I heard that Hui'an Temple is more effective, so it is better to let the crown princess take you to worship on the fifteenth. ”

"Thank you Prince, the concubine will go and tell the princess tomorrow."

Yan Rongling patted Yu Wu and said softly: "It's late at night, go to sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow." ”

When Yu Wu got up on the second day, Yan Rongling had already gotten up and danced the sword.

Yu Wu looked at Yan Rongling's vigorous figure outside the window, admiring and feeling sad in her heart.

In the following days, the prince either rested at the crown princess, or took turns resting at Li Yi and Ye Shuang, as well as at the dance place. When the news reached the ears of Emperor Hong Zheng, he was very pleased.

However, soon Emperor Hong Zhengdi's good mood was gone, because he received news from Dazhou that Xiao Yao was assassinated outside Dazhou.

"Do you know who it is to assassinate Xiao Yao?"

"Back to the emperor, there is no news yet. It was the dead man who committed suicide on the spot after the defeat. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng lowered his face, asked the inner servant who reported the news to retreat, sat on the dragon chair, and carefully analyzed the government and the opposition, who would be unfavorable to Xiao Yao.

can think about it, Emperor Hong Zheng has no clue, or Emperor Hong Zheng is not willing to think deeply.

Although Empress Dowager Zhong had already received the news, she had to pretend to know, and she was very angry and sent someone to invite the emperor to Cining Palace.

"Emperor, who is this going to assassinate Xiao Yao? Is it the Liao people or Xiao Yao's enemies? Does the emperor know who Xiao Yao had a grudge with in the first two years? ”

Looking at the extremely angry Empress Dowager Zhong, Emperor Hong Zheng didn't know what to say.

can only comfort: "The Queen Mother can rest assured, with Gu Dian with her and fifty personal guards accompanying her, Xiao Yao will be fine." ”

"Emperor, it's not that you don't know that it was because of Gu Dian's accident that Liuyue was depressed and died in childbirth. Mingzhu is also a dead eye, and the mourning family is afraid that she will also follow in Liuyue's footsteps. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng looked at the old appearance of Empress Dowager Zhong, who had long since lost the demeanor of the regent back then, and felt a little uncomfortable.

Hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother can rest assured, Dazhou will return to Beijing as soon as Pingchuan, and I have already issued an order to let the government offices along the way send troops to escort it, and Xiao Yao will definitely be able to return to Beijing safely." ”

"The emperor arranged it very well, but the mourning family is still worried."

Empress Dowager Zhong wanted to speak and stopped, Emperor Hong Zheng saw it in his eyes, and said with a smile: "What the Empress Dowager wants to say, to put it bluntly, I am subject to the Empress Dowager's arrangement." ”

"Emperor, the mourning family has a guess, but I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

Emperor Hong Zheng's heart jumped, but he said with a smile on his face: "The Queen Mother can say whatever she wants, and there is nothing I should say or not." ”

Empress Dowager Zhong made a look and motioned for Dongchun to take the others to retreat, leaving only the princess and Mama Fang by her side.

"Emperor, Xiao Yao's assassination, the mourning family has not dared to tell Mingzhu. It's just that the mourning family feels that Xiao Yao has no enemies in the court. You see if it will be who, I don't want Xiao Yao to come back and marry Mingzhu. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng understood, what Empress Dowager Zhong meant, and now there is no one else in this hall.

"What does the Queen Mother mean, is she suspicious of the prince?"

Empress Dowager Zhong no longer went around in circles, and said bluntly: "Except for the prince, the mourning family can't think of it, who doesn't want Mingzhu to marry." After all, the emperor also knew the prince's affection for Mingzhu at the beginning. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng was silent, in fact, he also had some guesses, but he didn't want to admit it.

"The queen mother can rest assured, now that the prince has a wife and a concubine, even if he still has affection for Mingzhu, it is also the love of brother and sister. The Queen Mother is relieved. ”

After listening to Emperor Hong Zheng's euphemistic assurance, Empress Dowager Zhong didn't say more, and the topic turned to Mingzhu's marriage.

"Emperor, you also know that Mingzhu is the heart and soul of the mourning family. On the day of Mingzhu's wedding, the mourning family wanted to prohibit other families in the capital from marrying to ensure that Mingzhu was unique. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng naturally agreed, and said happily: "This is nature. On the day of the princess's marriage, it is generally not allowed, and there are other families marrying. Mingzhu is also a princess, so naturally she also has to enjoy this special case. ”

Empress Dowager Zhong was happy at this time, chattering about the odds and pieces of Mingzhu's dowry.

When Emperor Hong Zheng left Cining Palace, his face sank suddenly.

I wanted to pass on the prince to question, but in the end I didn't. Just ordered to suppress a few relatively urgent twists and turns, and left them in the middle.

Sure enough, on the afternoon of the second day, Yan Rongling came to ask to see Emperor Hong Zheng.

"Father, the household department is waiting for the batch of disaster silver from southern Yunnan, and the son sent it the day before yesterday, did you forget to give it to your father?"

Emperor Hong Zheng flipped out the fold and handed it to Yan Rongling with an expressionless face.

"I haven't forgotten, but I don't know, Rong Ling, have you forgotten what you promised me that day?"

Yan Rongling's expression flickered, and he immediately knelt down and said respectfully: "Father, I don't know what the son did wrong?" Please make it clear to my father. ”

"I still want to ask you today, Mingzhu is not married yet, do you still want to marry her? If you are still interested, then I don't need to give you the will to marry. ”

Yan Rongling's heart was agitated, but he quickly came back to his senses, kowtowed, and said, "Erchen only thinks that Mingzhu is his sister, and he has no other intentions." ”
