"Imperial Grandmother, you are not old at all." Mo Haoning grabbed the old lady's arm like a child. Suddenly, Mo Haoning's face turned cold, and he quickly looked to the side.

"What's wrong?" The old queen mother followed Mo Haoning's gaze, and as far as the eye could see, it was peaceful.

"Nothing, it looks like a bee is buzzing in my grandson's ear." Mo Haoning pressed the doubts in his heart, hid the anger in his eyes, and replied sweetly. There was clearly a vicious gaze coming from his side just now, why did he turn around and disappear? Mo Haoning muttered to himself in his heart.

"Yes, there are twice as many flowers in Funing Palace today as in the past, and it's normal to have one or two bees occasionally." The old queen mother smiled, stretched out her hand to caress Mo Haoning's face, and said with pity, "Now you don't know what you're busy with all day, people look a lot thinner. When the spring begins next year, it's time for your father to tell you about your family."

"Grandmother, let's go and see the newly cultivated begonias in the Imperial Flower Workshop." Mo Haoning diverted the topic and helped the old queen mother to walk to the backyard of Funing Palace.

A resentful gaze was cast from the crowd, staring at Mo Haoning's back. As if sensing something, Mo Haoning looked back again, but there was nothing behind him except for the concubines who were talking and laughing.

After supporting the old queen mother to walk around the Funing Palace, seeing all the flowers sent by the Royal Flower Workshop, after confirming that the Funing Palace did not have the strange insects and moths in the imperial garden, Mo Haoning excused himself and hurriedly said goodbye to the old queen mother.

"You all disperse, go back to your respective palaces to rest and rest, the old woman is tired and wants to sleep for a while." Seeing Mo Haoning leaving, the old queen mother also felt a wave of tiredness sweeping over, and sighed in her heart that the years were unforgiving.

Seeing that the old queen mother looked tired, the concubines got up and saluted and retired.

Looking at the quiet Funing Palace, the old queen mother leaned on the soft couch, looked at the purple and red outside the window, and sighed softly.

"The Queen Mother has something on her mind?" The old queen's personal palace maid Han Ju served a cup of hot tea.

"The emperor is the meat that fell from the mourning family, and Hao'er was brought up by the mourning family, what do these two people have in mind, they want to hide it from the mourning family, but they can't hide it." The old queen mother took a sip of tea, and the gloomy cloud between her eyebrows became a little thicker, "The Mid-Autumn Festival moon appreciation and blessing have been changed to Funing Palace, there must be something wrong with the imperial garden." When Hao'er came, she looked calm and relaxed, but in fact, the string in her heart was tight! There must have been a big mess in the palace, but they wouldn't tell me, the old woman, about it. It seems that the mourning family is really old and useless!" The old queen mother sighed and shook her head gently.

"The Queen Mother is too worried." Han Ju took the tea cup in the old lady's hand and put it on the table beside her, knelt on the footrest and gently beat the old lady's legs, "If they don't tell you, they must be afraid that you will be worried, you see, when they deal with the matter, they will definitely come to tell you the story of what happened during this time." You've worked hard all your life, and now that the prince has grown into a young man, it's time for you to let them break through on their own. You can drink tea now, listen to the play, and nourish your spirits, maybe in a year or two, Lord Hao will have to beg you to help him bring the doll." The warm and soft voice of Han Ju accompanied by the warm afternoon sun turned the entire Funing Palace into a pool of gentle autumn water.

"The Queen Mother?" Han Ju waited for a long time and didn't hear the old lady's response, so she couldn't help but look up, only to see the old lady close her eyes lightly, and she didn't know when she had already fallen asleep.

"The older you get, the more you look like a child." Han Ju smiled and took a thin blanket to cover the old lady.

"Girl." Chunling and Xia He commanded the three little eunuchs to carry a large vat to the outside of Muyuan Hall.

"The scales were ground into powder and put in?" Qiao Xiya looked at the half of the water in the tank and asked.

"Don't worry, girl." Chunling nodded.

"I don't know if this tank of water can save the lives of the Twelve Highnesses." Qiao Xiya stretched out her hand to stir the water in the tank, and the water ripples swirled, shining with colorful and fine light in the sun.

"Girl, it will be dark in another hour, the slave has brought you some jujube flower cakes, you pad first." Xia He handed a small cloth bag to Qiao Xiya, and quickly stuffed a peanut into his mouth.

Qiao Xiya took the cloth bag and opened it, and there were three or five pieces of warm jujube flower cake inside. Qiao Xi

Ya took a bite, it was sweet and delicious, and she took a deep breath, "If only I could have another milky mung bean smoothie."

"Chu Yun said that he originally prepared it for you, but the prince said that it is autumn now, and it is better to eat less ice, so Chu Yun didn't dare to let the slave maid bring it to you." As he spoke, he threw another peanut into his mouth.

"You also bought these peanuts from Chu Yun, right?" Qiao Xiya handed Chunling a piece of jujube flower cake, but her eyes looked Xia He up and down.

"How does the girl know?" Xia Hele was happy, and the peanuts in his mouth were chewed even sweeter, "Girl, don't say it, this Chuyun is quite interesting, and I don't know how he knows that the slave likes to eat this little snack, and he doesn't know where he bought it, it's much more delicious than the slave and the maid themselves on weekdays." Xia He chattered while munching on peanuts.

Qiao Xiya ate the jujube flower cake and smiled meaningfully.

"Why does the girl look at the slave like this?" Xia He touched the corner of his mouth, but did not touch the residual slag.

"Xia He, let me ask you, what do you think of Chu Yun?" Qiao Xiya asked with a smile.

"He's ......" Xia He slowly chewed on the peanuts and tilted his head to think, "People are still quite good, but sometimes it's a little weird......

"Lady Joe is no good!" Before Xia He's words were finished, the little eunuch who was waiting for Mo Chenyu in Muyuan Hall ran out with a frightened face.

"Speak slowly." Qiao Xiya's face tightened, and she quickly put the uneaten jujube flower cake in her hand into a cloth bag and handed it to Xia He. qs

"Your Highness, Your Highness, he started ...... again" The little eunuch stammered in shock, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Qiao Xiya glanced back at the blood-colored remnant clouds on the horizon and the full moon hanging low in the sky, knowing that after waiting for more than ten days, this moment is finally coming.

"Go and ask Prince Hao." Qiao Xiya forced her composure and commanded the little eunuchs, "A few of you carry the water tank into the courtyard, a few of you, keep an eye on Your Highness, I said that when you put it, you must immediately soak Your Highness in the tank, understand?" A few of you, guard all the intersections that can lead to Muyuan Hall, and no one is allowed to enter except Prince Hao and Chu Yun!"

"Yes!" The little eunuchs acted according to Qiao Xiya's arrangement.

In the dormitory of Muyuan Hall, as the sun fell to the horizon little by little, Mo Chenyu's painful moans became louder and louder......
