After a happy time for the whole night, Qin Yunuan felt constant backache the next morning. Nurse Liao felt so happy when she heard that Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi was in sweet love every day. She always talked that she hoped to take care of the daughters and sons of the couple in the future.
Qin Yunuan reckoned that she had married to Prince Ning's Mansion for one month. She looked at her belly. She expected but felt a little bit worried. Now Qin Yunuan should care much about Baochuan, but if there were a new member, she would not know if she could handle all things well.
Soon, it was the day of the selection examination of the Imperial College in autumn. On this day, Qin Baochuan got up early, and Qin Yunuan still slept due to the happy time last night. Leng Changxi tided up the quilt clearly for Qin Yunuan, and then put on a piece of clothing to encourage Baochuan.
"Don't be so worried," Leng Changxi with hands clasped behind his back looke
"Yes," said Qin Yunuan with a sweet smile. The dimples on her cheeks made her look more innocent and artless. "They were sent by Concubine Tang to share responsibility for me. As they looked very pleasing to the eyes, I kept them at my disposal."The two servant girls with pretty faces were sent by Concubine Tang to share responsibility. Everyone here knew what the so-called "responsibility" really meant. It turned out that Concubine Tang wanted to plant her people into Qin Yunuan's courtyard and win the favor of Leng Changxi.Qin Yunuan kept a close eye on everybody's facial expressions while speaking. As was expected, Xie Ruying became black in her face all of a sudden. Princess Ning frowned a little, and then her calm was restored. Leng Suxin was as emotionless as usual. The expression on her face was still cool and indifferent as if those things were none of her business.This time, the Old Madam cast a murderous glance at those servant gir
The blowing autumn wind was a little bit dry, but Xie Ruying outside felt so gloomy as rainy days. She felt very afflictive."Third Young Madam." Xie Ruying stepped forward immediately after she saw Qin Yunuan came out.Qin Yunuan just glimpsed at her without much attention, but she still stopped. She said nothing and waited for Xie Ruying to speak first. Qin Yunuan wanted to know what else bullshit Xie Ruying could say. The must in the flower sachet had made Qin Yunuan refreshed utterly. There were many spies in Prince Ning's Mansion."Third Young Madam, could you listen to me for a while?" Xie Ruying stepped forward and gave a sign to Leng Shuang beside Qin Yunuan. Xie Ruying knew the ability of this maidservant well. The maidservant was rare to show up, but she could appear suddenly when there was an emergency. It seemed that the maidservant was so skilled."Leng Shuang, you quit first." Qin Yunuan ordered, and then smiled to Xi
"May I?" Leng Chang'an bowed again, modest and gentle.Qin Yunuan looked back to Leng Changxi. His eyes were cold but not rejecting. She nodded to Leng Chang'an and said, "Please, my brother-in-law."Leng Chang'an looked apologetic, "I heard about Ruyi and your conflict last night. Ruyi was wrong. She is a little arrogant, but not a bad woman. I hope you won't take it personally."The conflict Leng Chang'an mentioned was that Ruan Ruyi united with Tang and vied with Qin Yunuan for three shops. It was just a trivial matter. However, Leng Chang'an took the initiative to apologize humbly. It made Qin Yunuan look like a woman who showed no mercy to those in the wrong when justice was on her side.Qin Yunuan only nodded, "You are overly concerned, brother. My sister-in-law and I just had a little friction. It's my fault to trouble you with all this explaining."Leng Chang'an nodded and then looked to Leng Changxi, "Have you
The cry absolutely attracted the attention of all the people present, who unconsciously stared at the entrance of the palace. Clenching her fingernail guard, Empress Chen felt that her heart was pinched.There was a teenage boy in blue at the entrance of the palace. With his hair half down, he looked at about the age of 15 or 16. He was delicate with red lips and white teeth. Despite his slim figure, the determination and resolution in his eyes revealed the maturity and tenacity beyond his age."My greetings, Your Majesty, Her Majesty, and Queen Mother," Sima Qiu stood at the center of the palace. Years of living in the Imperial Mausoleum had left him a peaceful and quiet temperament.Today was the 60th birthday of Queen Mother, so the atmosphere was festive. In addition, many senior officials led by Minister Liu had mentioned the goodness and sensibility of the Seventh Prince multiple times, making the emperor remember his love for the son. Th
"Nonsense," Imperial Concubine Yun stood out firstly, looking extremely angry, "Today is the 60th birthday of Queen Mother. This is her birthday banquet. The guests here are all royal relatives and senior officials. How can there be any evil spirit? You, lying charlatan, are you taking the chance to make trouble?""No, no," Guo Shidong shook his head indifferently with a determined look, "I'm reporting according to what I have seen through my Inner Eye. I am not lying."While Guo Shidong shook his head, Queen Mother and the emperor looked solemn. After all, Gui Lingzi's fame was so big. If the one right before them was really Gui Lingzi's best student, his ability should not be underestimated. What's more, he was found by Prince Ray, so he was more or less reliable.Then the Grand Prince, Sima Ruo, said, "Everyone can talk at random. Before you speak, have you ever considered the consequence?""That's right," Princess Saichun next
After Emperor Zhaoxuan issued orders, everyone seemed relieved but also more worried. Qin Yunuan frowned, and she knew clearly about what Emperor Zhaoxuan planned to do. Undoubtedly, his plan was the best one, because it could not only save lives of officials and nobles but also caused no other trouble. People here all had heard what Guo Shidong said, so they wouldn't bother to keep it as a secret.But...This meant Emperor Zhaoxuan was putting the lives of average people in the Royal City at risk. If Guo Shidong was right about his prediction, countless innocent people would lose their family or die. However, it was not easy to order all residents to leave the Royal City at midnight."Third Young Madam, take care of yourself." Princess Ning was the happiest person after hearing that Qin Yunuan had already been pregnant for one and half a month. She even sent Qingzhu, her close servant girl, to serve Qin Yunuan in order to ensure Qin Yunuan was
Sun Miaoyang frowned. He checked Qin Yunuan's expression repeatedly and asked Qin Yunuan to show him her tongue. After a careful inspection, he said sincerely, "Girl, did you recently eat something that you shouldn't?"Qin Yunuan shook her head. Seeing Sun Miaoyang looking troubled, she said openly, "Doctor Sun, just tell me what's wrong.""If you didn't eat anything by mistake, then someone must have drugged you." Sun Miaoyang nodded. "Any normal doctor could tell that your pulse shows a sign of pregnancy. However, it's just part of it. Let me put it this way. Five percent of your pulse is weak. Apparently, you're drugged with agrimony.""Agrimony?" Qin Yunuan asked in confusion, "What's that?""Agrimony is a precious herb from the remote areas of West Xia. Few people know about it, fewer could get hold of it. The local women use this herb on skincare. Although it has the effect of maintaining youth and beauty, it has some side ef
"Come in." Emperor Zhaoxuan frowned. Actually, Emperor Zhaoxuan felt so embarrassed about the suggestion proposed by Guo Shidong. His child had been spoiled since childhood. If his child was expelled out of Qi, he must be in deadly danger.At this moment, Qin Yunuan came in slowly. In the eyes of Sima Ray, she was like a small delicate frightened bird, which attracted others to give much love."Your Majesty, her Majesty." The Queen Mother was not present. She got frightened and had a rest in her chamber.Qin Yunuan glanced at Sima Qiu who was kneeling beside her. She could clearly see the fingerprints on his face, and then she said in a grave voice, "I have something to show you, your majesty."The eunuch passed the handkerchief which was held by Qin Yunuan to the emperor at once. Something inside was tightly wrapped, and it was hard to guess what it is inside.Emperor Zhaoxuan glimpsed at it and just waved his hands.
