Chapter 152: Admitting defeat
Wei Cheng was taken to Dou Yifang's carriage, and he was surprised to learn that the person in the carriage was Dou Yifang. In order not to be ostentatious, Dou Yifang did not let him salute, but let him follow the carriage, just to say something.
Today, Wei Cheng was able to leave the palace on a rotational basis, but his face was sad, his brows were deeply locked, and he looked worried. Dou Yifang asked the reason, and it just so happened that he also had something to ask.
Both of them asked together--Qingluo.
Wei Cheng hadn't seen Qingluo for three months, and his longing was eating away at his heart like a spring silkworm, making him restless.
Two months ago, someone would bring him news of Qingluo from time to time, roughly saying "everything is fine, please take care".
In the second month, I received three messages, but in the third month, there was no news at all.
He knew that Qingluo was working on Yuliangren's side, but with his identity, he couldn't go to the harem casually, so he suffered from lovesickness all day long. Now that he can meet Dou Yifang, he is very lucky.
After listening to him, Dou Yifang wondered if Qingluo was so busy?
"You don't have to worry, I think Yuliang is pregnant, she is busy taking care of her, and she can't get out. When you return to the palace, I'll help you ask. "Dou Yi said.
"Thank you."
After that, Wei Cheng and Dou Yifang separated and went to drink by themselves.
Dou Yifang, Han Lian, and Qin Yilian returned to the palace, originally to go to see Liu Heng first to report their safety. When he came to Guangyuan Palace, he knew that Liu Heng was not there.
The three of them made a fuss late last night, and they were all a little sleepy at this time, so they went back to the palace to rest first.
In the evening, Liu Heng went to Dou Yi's room to sit for a while, said a few words and left, he had no intention of staying in Chunyan Pavilion.
Dou Yifang remembered that he had promised Chen Jingxuan to intercede for his son, but it seemed that he could only wait for next time.
The next day, the weather was just right!! Bright sunshine, pleasant birdsong, elegant floral fragrance, warm breeze. With such good weather, how can it not be pleasant.
It was a good day to go out and play, and Dou Yifang sent someone to make an appointment with Han Lian, Qin Yilian, and Wei Muyu to go to Liuchun Garden to enjoy the flowers.
Han Lian and Qin Yilian both agreed, but Wei Muyu refused again, saying that it was not suitable to move around.
Dou Yifang didn't agree, she was always stuffy at home, but it was actually not good for the fetus, so she went to Liuli Pavilion to persuade Wei Muyu.
Liuli Pavilion.
"Master, Dou Liangren has arrived." Butterfly leaf came in and said.
Wei Muyu felt inexplicably nervous when she heard that Dou Yifang was coming, because she was fake pregnant, and Dou Yifang had been pregnant, and she was worried that she would accidentally expose her flaws and be recognized by Dou Yifang.
I didn't want to see them, but I thought that they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and if they didn't meet again, I was afraid that it would make Dou Yifang worry and suspicion, so I finally met.
"Dou Liangren, please."
Shuangyue led Dou Yifang to Wei Muyu's bedroom, only to see Wei Muyu sitting lazily on the bed, covered with a quilt, looking like she had just woken up.
Dou Yifang sighed and quipped, "You can really sleep ......"
Wei Muyu smiled and said, "Somehow, I only feel sleepy all day long." β
"That's because you move around too little. Muyu, it's not like you can only stay after pregnancy......"
"I know it too, but I'm afraid of accidents......"
As she spoke, she deliberately looked at Dou Yifang, and the implication in her eyes was that Dou Yifang couldn't have known it. At the beginning, Dou Yifang had to go out to see the snow that he had an accidental miscarriage.
Thinking of this incident, Dou Yifang still felt sad, but if she had another child, she would not dare to go out because of this incident.
No matter what Dou Yifang said, Wei Muyu was already determined not to go out easily, and Dou Yifang had no choice but to give up persuasion.
This time when he came to Liuli Pavilion, in addition to inviting Wei Muyu to travel, Dou Yifang also wanted to know about Qingluo's situation.
"Where's the green rais? Why haven't you seen her all this time? β
"Oh, she's out......"
Wei Muyu had expected that Dou Yifang would look for Qingluo, so she had already thought of a countermeasure.
"Where did you go?"
"Imperial Pharmacy, I asked her to grab the medicine and go to ......"
"You can't let her do everything."
"What, it's distressing?"
"That's not what I'm trying to say......"
Wei Muyu cast a curious gaze.
Dou Yifang continued: "What I want to talk about is Qingluo and Wei Cheng, they seem to have not seen each other for a long time!" β
Of course, Wei Muyu didn't want them to meet, she couldn't let Wei Cheng know that Qingluo had his child, otherwise her plan would fail. Defeat can be a dead end.
"Yifang, do you really think it's for their good to keep them together?"
Dou Yifang didn't quite understand what she meant.
Wei Muyu meant that it was too dangerous to let Qingluo and Wei Cheng get too close. If one day the king falls in love with Qingluo, how will it end?
Dou Yifang didn't think about this seriously, or it should be said that she felt that it was unlikely that Liu Heng would take a fancy to Qingluo.
"Your concerns are not unreasonable, but I don't think the king is the kind of person who is unkind. If you talk to the king, maybe the king will be able to fulfill them? β
"Fulfillment?" Wei Muyu sneered, "You are too naΓ―ve to think, don't think that the king will fulfill Yanxiang and General Zhang, and will also fulfill Wei Cheng and Qingluo, they are different......"
"Don't think that you know the king, as the saying goes, the king's heart is unpredictable. If you misjudge, you will only suffer in the end. β
Dou Yifang was silent, but it didn't mean that she agreed with Wei Muyu's statement, but she couldn't think of refuting it for a while.
Wei Muyu was most worried about Dou Yifang's involvement with Qingluo, and saw that Dou Yifang didn't seem to have any intention of giving up.
Then he said again: "Yifang, you can leave the matter of Qingluo to me, after all, I am pregnant with a child now, and it is easier to speak." β
Dou Yifang felt that she was right, so she agreed. After sitting in the Liuli Pavilion for a while, she couldn't wait for Qingluo to come back, so she said goodbye and left.
Dou Yifang left, but Wei Muyu couldn't breathe a sigh of relief. Although I deceived Dou Yifang this time, I am afraid that Dou Yifang will come again in the future.
Either way, she had to figure out a way.
"What is artificially conceived in October?" Wei Muyu sighed helplessly.
In the afternoon, Dou Yifang, Han Lian, and Qin Yilian came to Liuchun Garden at the agreed time.
The spring in the garden is high-spirited, with green willows, red peaches, a hundred flowers competing for beauty, and bees surrounding butterflies.
The three of them took their own intimate maids, wandering through the flowers, laughing and laughing, looking at it from a distance, they thought that the fairy of the mortal world was lingering in the world.
Han Lian suddenly stopped and looked at an attic in the distance.
Qin Yilian saw that she was stunned, so she asked what was wrong. Han Lian pointed to the attic and said, "I don't think I saw such a place before. β
"Maybe it's new!!"
"Why don't we go over and have a look?"
The two agreed to Dou Yifang's proposal and walked towards the small attic.
The attic is surrounded by a white fence with a bow-shaped door with a plaque reading "Materia Medica".
Everyone wondered what was going on inside and walked in together.
A palace man was coming out of the small attic, and when he saw them, he scolded, "Who are you? You can't just come in here. β
Dou Yifang's maid Lan Yi greeted him and said domineeringly: "Dou Liangren, Zhang Shunchang, and Qin Wujuan are here, you don't recognize them?" β
When the palace people heard this, they knelt down in a panic, "The little one asks the three mothers to say goodbye, the small one is the new one, and the eyes have offended the mothers, and I ask the mothers to forgive them." β
Dou Yifang would not investigate his faults, let him be even, and asked what place this was.
Nagong said: "This is the Materia Medica, a place to grow medicines. β
As far as the eye can see, there are indeed some flower beds that look like vegetable patches.
"Why haven't I seen it before?" Qin Yilian asked.
"If you don't want to do it, this is the ...... that the king ordered to build the day before yesterday."
The three of them were a little surprised, and in just two days, they had this herb garden, which showed the efficiency of the palace.
But on closer inspection, there's nothing surprising about it. The lofts here are not luxurious, and they look a little better than ordinary houses.
"Can you show us everywhere?"
"please."
In the Materia Medica Garden, some of the ground was freshly turned, and the little palace man told Dou Yifang that there were no herbs planted in these fields.
Not far away, there are some potted flowers and plants, which are being transplanted.
When listening to the little palace people introduce the effects of each flower and plant, Han Lian was suddenly stunned.
Soon, Dou Yifang knew who made Han Lian lose her mind - there was a person squatting in the flower garden, busy taking care of the flower garden.
When the man happened to stand up, he also noticed Dou Yifang and them, especially Han Lian.
"This is my master, and the master of this herb garden, the imperial doctor invited back by the king......
Xiao Gongren's words, Han Lian didn't listen to them at all, and there was no need for that. Because of the person in front of her, she couldn't be more familiar.
"Wechen Su asked the soup, see all the mothers."
Dou Yifang looked at Han Lian beside her, and when she saw Han Lian's indifferent expression but didn't say anything, she asked Su to ask Tang Ping.
The atmosphere was still very awkward, and in order to break this atmosphere, Dou Yifang asked Su why Tang was in the palace.
Su asked Tang about the reason for his return, it turned out that the concubine was sick and did not recover from his illness for a long time, so the king sent someone to find him back.
Now, he was about to go to Fengyi Palace, so he said goodbye to Dou Yifang and the others. Maybe the reason why he was in a hurry to leave was because he didn't know how to face Han Lian.
Su Wentang left, and this spring outing also came to an end, because Dou Yifang and Qin Yilian could feel the sadness in Han Lian's heart, but she still forced a smile.
At this moment, the grandmother from Fengyi Palace found Dou Yifang, saying that the concubine wanted to see her. Dou Yifang asked Qin Yilian to take care of Han Lian, and went with the grandmother.
On the way, I asked my grandmother about the concubine's physical condition. Mama not only sighed, but told Concubine Dou Yifang that there was no major problem with her body, and the problem was in her heart.
She has not yet stepped out of the shadow brought by the false celestial master.
"The bell must be tied to the bell, and the lover has seen the concubine, but she must be persuaded well."
"I know this, I'll do my best......"
When he came to Fengyi Palace, Dou Yifang saw Su Wentang again. Su Wentang had just boiled medicine for the concubine, and he handed the medicine bowl to Dou Yifang and asked Dou Yifang to bring it to the concubine.
