"Oh, I'm going to find my grandma!" Shao Yuanhao turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, Your Grace!" E'niang grabbed Shao Yuanhao's sleeve and said, "I have something else to say!"
"What? Say it!" Shao Yuanhao ordered grumpily.
"Your Grace, you can rush over and make everything clear, but then what? Do you want to deal with Madam Jiang? No matter how wrong she is, she is still your Second Aunt!" E'niang advised him, seemingly earnestly. Of course, she could not let Shao Yuanhao rush out to Rui'an Great Elder Princess and Princess Chen recklessly like this. At that time, they would not spare her.
"Then tell me what I can do?" Shao Yuanhao could listen to the advice of others. He stamped his foot hard and said, "She murdered my parents. I will never live under the same sky with my sworn enemy!"
"Your Grace, that's what I think. Trust me. When I move into the Marquis Xing's Mansion, I will help you t
"Did His Highness know this?" Shao Wanru asked."Yes. He said this fruit wasn't that delicious. He just wanted you to have a taste of it!" Qu Le chuckled and said, "My Lady, how about you having a try?"Shao Wanru looked at these fruits and shook her head. "Forget it. I don't want to eat them now. Did she say anything else?""She said if you were free, you could spend some time with her in the Palace. It was better to take Miss Qin with you." Qu Le reported.Qin Yiyan had been in the Prince Chen's Mansion for a few days. During this period, she was well-behaved. She was vastly different from what she used to be in the Shuangxi Hall. She neither came to bother Shao Wanru nor tried to get close to Chu Liuchen. More than that, she had stayed far away from Chu Liuchen as if she wanted to avoid arousing suspicion."Miss Qin, how is she recently?" Shao Wanru blinked and asked. If Qin Yiyan remained in her proper spher
"Master, Miss Qin is still outside!" Xiao Xuanzi looked downstairs outside the window. Qin Yiyan stood under the tree, helplessly looking at the two guards at the door. It had been a long time, but she still did not leave.Chu Liuchen sat inside casually. Unhappily, he raised his head and ordered coldly, "Let her come up to me!""Yes, I will ask Miss Qin to be here right away!" Xiao Xuanzi breathed a sigh of relief and hurried downstairs from the second floor. Miss Qin was excessively stubborn. He said his master was busy, but she insisted on seeing him.In the end, she could talk to Prince Chen. But even so, Xiao Xuanzi believed she would have to suffer. He knew his master's character. Throughout, his master only accepted one woman in his heart: Princess Chen.Hearing that Chu Liuchen asked her to come in, Qin Yiyan breathed a sigh of relief. She was really worried that Chu Liuchen would not see her. Since she could see him
"Changxing Grass?" Out of curiosity, Shao Wanru picked up a few stalks of grass in the box and asked, "What is Princess Yuyan up to?"Many accidents were related to Changxing Grass, and she was nearly killed because of it. What did Princess Yuyan mean by sending the grass here now? Of course, Shao Wanru didn't think it was a coincidence.Chu Liuchen looked at the Changxing Grass in Shao Wanru's hand lazily and said carelessly, "I had asked for the grass from the Xu State.""Why do you want the few stalks of grass?" Shao Wanru asked in confusion and waved the half-withered grass in her hand. It didn't dry up and looked fresh, at least."I asked for them for Uncle the Emperor, but the Xu State had always said they didn't have the grass. They needed some time to look for the grass. Even in the Xu State, finding this kind of grass is not easy. It is because they grow only in remote and untraversed mountains and marshlands."
There were two reasons why Chu Liuyue disliked Zhang Qilan.The first reason was Prime Minister Zhang's attitude. Even though he had agreed to marry Zhang Qilan as his legal wife, Prime Minister Zhang showed no partiality to him, appearing very impartial and fair in the imperial court. Every time Chu Liuyue wanted to get closer to him, he just smiled and walked away, treating Chu Liuyue the same way as before. But Chu Liuyue, anxious in his heart, felt very uncomfortable about his indifferent response.The second reason was that Zhang Qilan was not as good-looking as Shao Yanru. Initially, Shao Yanru captured his fancy. Although Zhang Qilan was pretty, she was still far inferior to Shao Yanru.Consort of Virtue chose Zhang Qilan as his legal wife, but Chu Liuyue was not very satisfied with the arrangement.He knew Zhang Qilan was his best choice at the moment. Nevertheless, he always felt it was not enough. If he could get some ext
After saying that, Yujie reached out to pick the flower. She had never seen this kind of vine, which might have high medical value. To show it to Mingqiu Nun, she stooped down to take one. Since Yujie had done this many times, she knew it would likely be the case. Its medicinal value, in Yujie's judgment, was much more critical than its ornamental value.As Shao Wanru heard her words, her eyes also alighted on these vines. She picked up the hem of her dress and walked over.Shao Wanru didn't notice them at first. With a closer look, she found these vines were indeed unusual. She had never seen this kind of vine. It didn't seem to be what Princess Yuyan or Princess Yutao liked. Even she herself had ignored them.Only Yujie caught sight of these blooms, though they were not very beautiful. Of course, they could not compare with those sheets of blossoms for ornament as beautiful as rosy clouds. However, because Yujie had been living in the
Chu Liuyue had always been calm. As the Emperor's eldest son, he maintained his dignified image perfect in every way, and always kept a certain distance from others.How could he become so emotional at this time?Even if he had been tricked into coming here, he should have left at this time instead of being entangled with her.Shao Wanru immediately had a miserable hunch that someone must have seen them like this. So, who was this scene meant for? She took a few more steps back and decisively withdrew from the pavilion.Qing'er and Yujie stood in front of her."Your Highness, I'm afraid you've fallen into someone's trap. I didn't invite you over. I would never do such a thing, let alone ask you to see me in the name of Miss Zhang. I didn't know where you were. Besides, we had nothing to do with each other before this, so how could I want to see you?"Shao Wanru raised her cold eyes and reminded Chu
"Did you forget something? Do you want me to help you?" Infanta Yuan'an asked seriously."No, nothing serious!" Zhang Qilan reached out to rub her forehead."It doesn't matter, even if it's not a big deal. Anyway, I have nothing to do!" Infanta Yuan'an said with a smile, "We are guests here. Perhaps, the two princesses invited only a few guests. So far, I've only seen you. If you have anything to do, I can help. I'm free anyway. It can relieve my boredom!"There were indeed few people around them. Until now, Zhang Qilan had only seen Shao Wanru and Chu Liuyue."Let's go down for a walk!" Zhang Qilan thought for a moment, stood up, and said, "We've been here for so long. We have to go down and see other sceneries.""Okay, that's what I have in mind!" Infanta Yuan'an agreed happily.After tidying up their clothes slightly, they went downstairs with their servant girls. Before leaving the window, Zhang
The tea room was not very far away. Zhang Qilan followed the servant girl and reached there after taking a few turns. Along the way, Zhang Qilan learned about the situation. This tea room provided tea and pastries for six resting places in total. The paths inside were winding. These resting places, neither too far nor too close, were approximately the same distance from this tea room.Upon arrival, they saw a lot of people inside the tea room. There were old maids doing the cleaning and servant girls bringing and sending items. They all seemed very busy. Although they talked to each other occasionally, they were quick in doing their jobs.Zhang Qilan followed the servant girl to a place for storing pastries.There were many kinds of pastries here. They were placed on the plates and had not been taken out yet. Many of them had just been steamed and were still steaming with heat."Can I pick some snacks?" Zhang Qilan looked at
"Not yet. My leg just cramped up." Shao Wanru reached out to touch her calf, but her belly was too big to reach it.The Emperor reached out his strong hand and massaged her calf. The young and handsome Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. "Thankfully, you are not going to deliver the baby!"As soon as he said this, Chu Liuchen realized he had said something wrong. He hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean that. It's good that you are not delivering the baby now."After saying that, he realized that something was wrong again and laughed.Shao Wanru laughed so hard that she couldn't speak. Since when did Chu Liuchen, who was as scheming and gloomy as a demon king, could not even speak clearly?"You're still laughing. Did I say anything wrong?" Chu Liuchen glared at her. However, with an elegant smile on his face, he didn't look domineering at all.Shao Wanru continued laughing happily. After a while, she s
Everything in the past had a cause, but this cause was concealed in many mists, so it appeared unreal.After reading the letter in her hand, Shao Wanru put it down with a trace of a smile across the corners of her eyes. She had been relieved of some things. Once she hoped that Qin Huaiyong would treat her like Qin Yuru.This was what she hoped for most in her last life. After all, at that time, she had always thought that she was Qin Huaiyong's biological daughter, and she had no idea that her identity had been seized by Qin Yuru. Right now, Shao Wanru didn't want to mention it again. After the rebirth, she found out the truth and could not be reluctant to get close to Qin Huaiyong anymore.The memories of her last life were fading away, and they become blurred in her eyes.Putting down the memorial in her hand, Shao Wanru smiled with an elegant and calm look in her eyes. "Madam, please pass my gratitude to Ningyuan Army Gen
Shui Ruolan followed the Nanny who led the way ahead and felt uneasy. Since she came to the capital, she occasionally associated with some Madams from aristocratic families. She would not attend their parties unless it was necessary.On the one hand, she always had a weak character. On the other hand, every time she joined them, some Madams always asked about Madam Di intentionally or unintentionally. They were polite to Shui Ruolan on the surface, but they sneered at her behind her back when talking about her.People in the capital thought that Madam Di was Qin Huaiyong's legal wife. Shui Ruolan was a divorced woman. How could she compare with a decent Madam from an aristocratic family? Her status was much lower than Madam Di's. Of course, there were some people who flattered her. They were two-bit nobodies who wanted to curry favor with Qin Huaiyong.This was the first time Shui Ruolan had entered the Palace since she came to the capit
"Yes, Her Highness fainted. Hurry up... Inform His Highness to go to see her. Mingqiu Nun is also there... Hurry up!" Yujie was so excited that she spoke incoherently."Are you stupid?" Xiao Xuanzi looked at Yujie as if she were a fool."Quick! It's true. Believe me." Yujie was overjoyed and kept urging."His Highness will get angry," Xiao Xuanzi reminded Yujie.Yujie blinked her eyes in confusion. "Go quickly. His Highness will be happy.""His Highness will be angry!" Xiao Xuanzi said loudly. He thought that Yujie was out of her mind. What nonsense she was talking about! Xiao Xuanzi had seen with his own eyes how his master treasured Princess Chen. Princess Chen fainted now, but Yujie said that Prince Chen would be happy. What could he be happy for?Xiao Xuanzi felt a chill on his back. He even thought that he might not be safe. Instead, this silly girl was giggling here.Yujie looked
The swing swayed slowly. Shao Wanru sat on it and slightly narrowed her clear eyes in the sun, enjoying the gentle breeze. After a shower, the sky cleared up. Under the blue sky, she felt quite pleasant.It was the third day since the violent political upheaval in the Palace. Everything had returned to the right path, and the Emperor had woken up. The Fake Dead Medicine was remarkably effective.Chu Qing planned to kill the Emperor and shift the blame onto Chu Liuyue. In the end, he occupied the Palace, but at the last moment, Chu Liuchen changed the ultimate outcome.Chu Qing was not the deceased emperor's son. As the truth was exposed, he became a surviving supporter of the previous dynasty.Consort Dowager Qing had an affair with the prince of the previous dynasty on the run and was pregnant. After that, she met the deceased emperor, who had come to wipe out the rebels. She seduced him and entered the Palace. Not long aft
Chu Liuyue looked at the Emperor indifferently. During this period, the Emperor often vomited blood. He was used to such a scene. He fainted again, but so what?He walked up to pull the Emperor up and said, "Father, you'd better write it carefully so as not to cause me more trouble..."The next moment, his hand paused before the Emperor. Abruptly, Chu Liuyue reached out to feel his breath, and his face changed drastically."Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Derong was terrified and looked at Chu Liuyue. Likewise, he reached out to feel the Emperor's breath and knelt on the ground in a panic. "His Majesty... passed away!"Chu Liuyue looked sullen and reached out to feel his breath again. He found it hard to believe that the Emperor would die of anger because of him. Although he had said he was not afraid of this result, it became more difficult for him to clear up such a messy situation when the Emperor died. Since he was in t
Lights of every palace in the imperial Palace went out at night. There was a great noise somewhere. When the first scream came, many people put on their clothes and lit the lights again.These women in the Palace looked ghastly pale. They wanted to hide elsewhere but couldn't find shelter in the darkness. They trembled and huddled together, not knowing what had happened. Anyway, it didn't sound like a good thing. How could such a lot of awful noise appear in the Palace? The first idea that came to many people was that a rebellion was happening.In the night, Zhaoyi Di hurriedly followed a eunuch carrying a lantern and went to a palace out of use.Chu Liuyue was sitting in the middle of the hall."Greetings, Your Highness!" Zhaoyi Di said."How is it going?" Chu Liuyue asked."Commandery Prince Cheng has taken some people to the Emperor's resting place!" Zhaoyi Di reported."Good, well d
"From the previous dynasty?" Shao Wanru looked up. Though she was surprised, she didn't show it. She had figured it out. But after confirming it, she was wide awake."Will the Empress Dowager be in danger? I'll go to the Palace every day in the next few days!" Shao Wanru suggested."No, it's too dangerous!" Chu Liuchen shook his head."It doesn't matter. I have helpers by my side and bracelets!" Shao Wanru reached out her hand and cutely shook it. There was a pair of glossy sapphire bracelets on her wrist. At a glance, they were not ordinary.Chu Liuchen said with his face darkening, "No!"Such a close-fitting concealed weapon should be the last resort. As long as he thought Shao Wanru would be in such a dangerous situation, he would not be at ease. "Let Qin Yiyan accompany my Imperial Grandmother!""But someone should accompany and protect Noble Consort Lan. If those people deal with her..." Shao W
"Master, there is something wrong with the sandalwood." Qi Jue pulled an incense stick out of the incense burner at hand.Chu Liuchen took it and frowned. "What's the problem?"Qi Jue replied with a serious look, "There is something added to it. If it is used for a long term, one will be mentally and physically exhausted, then lack strength, and spit out blood. If putting another ingredient into the medicine at this time, it is very likely to cause sudden death."On the bed, the Emperor leaned against Noble Consort Lan with a pale face. Just now, he spat out blood again, and he felt very uncomfortable all over.Noble Consort Lan stroked the Emperor hard while looking toward Chu Liuchen with her red eyes, but she did not speak."What was added?" Chu Liuchen asked sternly. He didn't trust the imperial physicians in the Palace, so he brought Qi Jue to the Palace. After entering the Palace, Qi Jue did not check the
