After greeting Concubine Xian without being salty, Gu Nanqin still accepted a large box of medicinal materials sent by her.

"Do you want to call the imperial doctor to see if there is anything wrong with this herb?" Xiao Zi'an has been feeling guilty since he heard that Gu Nanqin had an accident today, but the matter is over, and he is useless at all.

"No......" Gu Nanqin was about to refuse, but he heard that Xia Qing, who had been silently pestle in the dark, volunteered: "Eldest princess, Xia Qing still has a little research on medicinal materials, why don't you let your subordinates take a look?" ”

Gu Nanqin was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Yes, of course." ”

Xia Qing stepped forward in obedience, and when he passed by Xiao Zi'an, he was almost stunned by the cold light in the other party's eyes.

But this Xia Qing is also a wooden master, no matter how Xiao Zi'an glared at him, he just turned a blind eye, saluted Gu Nanqin respectfully, and then opened the medicine box, and looked at it one by one.

Gu Nanqin originally asked him to check these medicinal materials with the attitude of trying them out, after all, this medicinal material was given by Concubine Xian, if he really asked the imperial doctor to come, he was afraid that he would have to tell the truth.

Now Xia Qing volunteered, which is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

But seeing his posture, every time he picked up a medicinal herb, he looked at it carefully and seriously, and from time to time he got close to smell it, and occasionally showed a disgusted or happy expression on his face, which really looked like a man.

Gu Nanqin looked at Dong Wen and Xia Qing quietly, although the two of them were both secret guards, but compared to the latter, this Dong Wen's temperament was obviously more calm and incomprehensible.

"Eldest Princess, there is nothing wrong with these medicinal materials, but two of them seem to have been stored for too long, and they have faintly changed their taste." Xia Qing respectfully presented two weird, fruit-shaped things, Gu Nanqin raised his hand and called Ying Sleeve to take it, and then smiled: "Thank you." I can't imagine that you can still learn medical skills by the side of 'Jiang' Gongzi? ”

"What Xia Qing has learned is not as good as what his master has learned." Xia Qing spoke very simply, just answered the questions honestly, and did not have any extra words. It's not like an invitation to flattery, it's more like doing things according to the master's orders.

Thinking about it this way, at that time in the hospital, the son of "Jiang" should have told them to take good care of themselves, right?

Gu Nanqin unconsciously raised the corners of her lips: "...... You're not bad either. Zi'an, the two of them will be my guards from now on, you can arrange it. ”

"Why not the Dark Guard?" Dong Wen didn't know what he meant, and said with some doubts, "The master asked us to come here to protect the eldest princess, and there is no need to make other arrangements." ”

Gu Nanqin looked at him seriously and a little inquiringly: "In this palace, if the position of a secret guard is detected, it is easy to be criticized. ”

It was only when his brain was hot that he resisted, but he didn't expect that there was still such a stubble in the palace. Thinking of the sentence that the master ordered before leaving, "Listen to her dispatch", Dong Wen was a little embarrassed in an instant, and kowtowed to apologize: "...... Dong Wen shouldn't speculate too much, and he hopes that the eldest princess will forgive her sins. ”

In addition to his own net worth and life being closely related to these two people, Gu Nanqin himself also has a good impression of them. Winter is warm and old, and the temperament is calm; Xia Qing is young, withdrawn but proficient in medicine and martial arts...... It's really interesting.

Of course, it's not just the two of them who are interesting...... Gu Nanqin Yao looked at the backs of the two of them leaving with Xiao Zi'an, and it took a long time to come back to his senses: "...... You say, will today's incident be planned by 'Jiang' Gongzi? ”

Yingsleeve was preparing the bath bucket, but the sound of the water was sparse, Yingsleeve didn't hear a word, and turned back in confusion: "Princess? What do you say? ”

Gu Nanqin shook her head slightly and didn't speak again.

Three days after returning to the palace, Gu Nanqin's originally empty princess hall had been filled with gifts.

Among them, His Majesty's harem concubines sent the most, some of them were small items from the youngest daughter's family, and some of them were the same as Concubine Xian, and some medicinal materials were sent.

If these things have already surprised Gu Nanqin, then the next few rare treasures sent by the important ministers of the court really made Gu Nanqin's jaw drop.

"Princess, I found it. In the process of following several of these adults, Dong Wen and Zi'an heard that they were discussing the matter of Zhang Zongzheng being pulled off the horse this time, saying that the princess was an orphan daughter left by the first emperor, but she also suffered this catastrophe and almost died of incense, which was really a disappointment of the first emperor. From now on, the eldest princess can no longer just have an empty name, she must have a little prestige to shock the court, in order to live up to the trust of the first emperor. Xiao Zi'an reported slowly, and Gu Nanqin stared stupidly when she heard it-

"What's going on? How did this princess remember that this spring, they also said that this princess was a gentleman, only knew the wind and snow, and did not understand the sophistication of human affairs, which made the palace chickens and dogs jump, so it was better to withdraw the position of the eldest princess earlier? Why did they forget about it after only half a year's work? Gu Nanqin's eyes were indescribably complex, her eyebrows frowned, and she reached out and took a piece of pastry from the plate to suppress the shock.

"I didn't say much, I just said that the eldest princess grew up alone in the deep palace, which is quite difficult." Xiao Zi'an was also dazed by the reversal of the situation in front of him, and could only report what he heard and saw to the princess one by one, which could be regarded as a modest effort.

Gu Nanqin lowered her eyes and said nothing.

"With all due respect, Dongwen said bluntly, the direction of the court has changed at this moment, and it is always going in a good direction, so why should the eldest princess worry? Just sit back and enjoy. "Dong Wen's brain turned extremely fast, and from the changes in the past few days, he thought of a certain possibility of this matter-Jiang Li.

Looking at the court, not only for the sake of the princess, but also for the princess to turn things around for the princess with this earth-shaking momentum, who is Jiang Li, who is not Prime Minister Jiang Li?

In this way, Dong Wen's idea is also extremely simple: let the princess accept this love with peace of mind, and don't think otherwise.

But from the moment he opened his mouth to persuade, Gu Nanqin's mind turned back and forth, and he also thought of a certain possibility-"Jiang" Gongzi.

These two people are both subordinates of the "Jiang" son, and they should have just been ordered to protect their lives, but at this moment, they suddenly spoke out to persuade them, which can only show that this matter is related to their master.

But thinking of this, Gu Nanqin's heart was cold: This guy, his hands are so long? Can you still manage the court and the palace?

It's horrible, it's horrible.

"Master, Qingqi is back." Ying Sleeve was guarding the door, but at this moment, he knocked on the door with surprise and joy, "Does the master want to see her?" ”

Gu Nanqin smiled: "Okay, you bring her over." Zi'an and Dongwen go down first, thank you this time. It just so happened that each palace sent a lot of things, you, and Xia Qing, each picked three pieces, you're welcome, this princess is just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha. ”

The two kowtowed to thank him, and when they stepped out of the door, they happened to meet Qingqi who was brought into the door by Yingcuff.

Qingqi had just come back from outside the palace, only wearing ordinary people's clothes, but when she was slightly out of step with Dongwen, she looked at her with some curiosity, only to feel a little familiar.
