That Cheng entered the medicinal herb shop, and when Liu Yunxiang walked in, she heard the maidservant next to her say to the guy who was preparing the medicine: You can bring a few more herbs to nourish the kidney and strengthen the yang.

So the guy put out Cistanche, Cnidium monnieri, and Suoyang.

What does she think, take these to make up for her husband, and then let him have the energy to harm other women?

"Can these things be mixed together?" Cheng asked.

The guy's eyes widened, "Of course not, the supplement must be gradual, Madame must not be impatient, otherwise it will wear out the body if it can't be made up." ”

Cheng said lightly: "This man is not very old, so he is useless." ”

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, his footsteps paused, and then he stepped forward: "Third lady." ”

Cheng turned his head to see Liu Yunxiang and said with a smile: "Princess, what a coincidence, you are also here to buy medicinal materials?" ”

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "I saw the third lady on the street and chased you over." ”

"That's it." Cheng's eyes rolled, "Let's go to the teahouse opposite to talk." ”

"Okay."

When she came to the teahouse, Liu Yunxiang sat down opposite Cheng's, and when the tea was served, she poured a cup herself and sent it to Cheng's hands.

"Thanks to the Third Lady, my niece was able to return home safely."

Cheng looked puzzled, "What does the princess mean by this?" ”

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Third lady, please use tea." ”

"I didn't do anything to help, but I didn't dare drink this tea." As she spoke, the third lady put down the teacup.

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "Although my niece has gone home, what happened these days is vague, and it seems that she is hiding something, and I am really worried about her." ”

Saying that, Liu Yunxiang glanced at the third lady, "The third lady specially waited for me that day and leaked the news to me, it must be out of kindness, and she didn't want to see a little girl killed, right?" ”

The third lady still shook her head, "The princess thought too much, I just talked nonsense that day, and I didn't reveal any news to you." ”

"Then Xue Hefeng wants to harm a bad woman, is such a person worthy of your continued protection?"

"He's my husband."

"He's a brute."

Cheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't care what kind of person he is, but we are husband and wife, one is prosperous and the other is lost." As for your niece, now that she's home safely, it's a great thing, and there's no need for you to get to the bottom of it. ”

Cheng refused to say anything, and it was useless for Liu Yunxiang to chase her and ask.

At this time, there was a sound of horses' hooves downstairs, Liu Yunxiang looked down from the sound, and saw a team of people galloping from the city gate, and the leader was Wei Shuyi, who came back from Nanzhou?

Liu Yunxiang looked behind him again, but he didn't see Zhu Qingjia, he should have led his troops to stay in Nanzhou.

The Nanzhou Rebellion has been fought intermittently for three years, and Nanzhou's troops are almost exhausted, and now that the war is over, it is faced with the question of which team to leave to garrison Nanzhou.

Now there is the Zhenbei Army in Nanzhou, the Central Plains Army of Zhu Qingjia, and the Dingxi Army of Lu Changan. Whoever falls into the hands of the person will definitely have to recruit troops, and the military strength will increase a lot at once.

Of course, the imperial court will gradually replenish the local army in Nanzhou, but this will take a process, and it will not be good to say for three or five years, but during this period, who knows what will happen.

And Shangguan Xu transferred Wei Shuyi back, he was the chief eunuch in front of the emperor, and he was also the eyeliner he placed beside the emperor.

Back at the palace, Liu Yunxiang didn't expect the queen to come, and waited for her in the palace for almost two hours.

"The queen brought Yuan Qingyue here." Jin Yan waited at the door of the mansion to tell her the news and let her be mentally prepared.

Liu Yunxiang paused, "It seems that she is supporting Yuan Qingyue." ”

Since the eldest princess and the old lady of Dingyuan Marquis failed to support Yuan Qingyue, this Yuan Qingyue has been living in the orchid garden, silently, thinking that she can't set off any storms, so she left her behind.

Unexpectedly, she popped up again.

"What about Your Highness?"

"Your Highness's injuries are almost healed, and I went to the official office this morning. The slave asked the servant to go to the official mansion to tell him about the queen's coming to the house, but the servant came back and said that His Royal Highness was not in the official mansion. It was said that the yamen had not received a case in the past few days, and it was very idle, so His Royal Highness ordered a cigarette and went out, but I don't know where he went. ”

Liu Yunxiang originally wanted Yan Duan to make it clear in front of the queen that he had reconciled with Yuan Qingyue, but he couldn't find him now, so she could only say it. Coming to the hall of the middle courtyard, Liu Yunxiang first saw the queen sitting in the right seat when he entered the door, and then saw Jiang Yunying standing beside the queen, and his heart turned.

She stepped forward and saluted, and said with a smile: "Before Niangniang comes, I should ask the little eunuch in the palace to give a letter, so I won't go out, and I will wait for you at home honestly." ”

The queen sighed heavily, "The princess has a big face, so let's wait for you in this palace." ”

"The queen said that she laughed, but the courtiers didn't dare to be it."

Liu Yunxiang looked at Jiang Yunying again and nodded at her, "Concubine Jiang is also here, please take a seat." ”

Jiang Yunying's face showed compassion, "Princess, the queen mother and I came to the house today, maybe you will make the princess uncomfortable, but this concubine is really pitiful, the queen mother and I are soft-hearted people, I really can't look at it." ”

"Yes."

Liu Yunxiang turned her head to look at Yuan Qingyue, she was standing on one side, her face was a little haggard at this time, with tears in her eyes, when she saw her, she hurriedly lowered her head, as if she was afraid of her.

Liu Yunxiang glanced at it lightly, and was about to retract his gaze, but saw Yuan Qingyue's belly, which was clearly bulging.

"Concubine Yuan is pregnant, it's almost five months, please ask the princess to be lenient and let her go home." Jiang Yunying persuaded in a good voice.

Liu Yunxiang squinted, "She's pregnant, why do you let me let her?" ”

"What are you talking about, she is pregnant with Lao Qi's child, where will she go back to the palace if she doesn't go back to the palace?" The queen shouted angrily.

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath and asked, "Yuan Qingyue, what you told the queen mother that you are pregnant with the child of the Seventh Highness?" ”

When Yuan Qingyue heard this, she whimpered and cried, and then knelt on the ground.

"Princess, I know you can't tolerate me, I don't have any extravagant hopes, I just want to live the rest of my life in Orchid Garden, but ...... But I'm pregnant again, in the end, it's royal blood, and I can't be nameless. I had no choice but to go into the palace and beg the queen. ”

Yuan Qingyue wiped her tears as she spoke, crying breathlessly.

The queen said coldly: "Liu's family, before the palace came, I had already told the emperor the news of Concubine Yuan's pregnancy, if you promise to let Concubine Yuan enter the door today, then the previous matter will be written off, if you don't agree, hum, the royal family will not allow you to be such a jealous daughter-in-law!" ”

Liu Yunxiang was amused, "Yuan Qingyue is pregnant, this child must be His Royal Highness the Seventh?" ”

"She's the side concubine of the seventh child, who is not his?"

Liu Yunxiang looked at Yuan Qingyue with sharp eyes, "You know the character of the Seventh Highness, I can ask you so well, but the Seventh Highness doesn't have the patience, so you'd better think clearly, is the child really the Seventh Highness?" ”

Yuan Qingyue was stunned for a moment, and said: "Yes, five months ago, His Royal Highness went to Orchid Garden drunk, and that night he treated me as you, and I wanted to push it away, but I love him, I can't help it, so I ...... And he followed. ”
