Nangong Yue looked calm and ordered lightly: "Que'er, go see if the good doctor has arrived and what he said."

After the magpie responded, he left in a hurry, coming and going like a gust of wind.

After Nangong Yue washed the brush, she put the brush aside, then made a gesture, and Huamei handed her a new brush.

Nangong Yue continued to draw the flowerpots and window frames with concentration, but she left half of the window frame untouched and could not start painting.

Would you like to add a "beauty" by the window? !

This peony painting was better than she expected, especially the charm of the flowers and leaves in the breeze. If she painted it again, I am afraid it might not have such an effect...

While Nangong Yue was hesitating, Que'er came back again, with a little maid of eleven or twelve years old behind her, saying that she was sent by the prince.

After the little maid bowed respectfully, she reported: "Your Majesty, Aunt Mei is not feeling well. Just now the good doctor went over to check her pulse. After taking the medicine, Aunt Mei is fine. Good doctor It is said that Aunt Mei accidentally used something cold and cool, which caused the fetal gas to move. But apart from anti-fetal medicine, Aunt Mei did not use anything else in the afternoon." As she said this, the little maid swallowed nervously. Then he said, "Your Majesty, please invite the Crown Princess to come over."

The little maid stood with her body bowed, not daring to raise her head.

A few days ago, Shuang'er, who was in the same room as her, went to Tingyuge to ask the Crown Princess to check Aunt Mei's pulse. However, the Crown Prince ordered her to be beaten with a cane, and she is still lying on the bed unable to get up...

Nangong Yue put her pen down again and decided to stop painting here for now.

"Baihua."

After she called out, Baihui immediately stepped forward and stood by.

"You go with her and see what the father has ordered."

Baihui responded and went, and the little maid felt a little uneasy. The prince asked the imperial concubine to go over, but the imperial concubine asked Baihui to go, which seemed inappropriate. But the little maid didn't dare to say anything, so she had no choice but to leave with Baihui in fear, thinking: The masters are fighting with each other, but the unlucky ones are slaves like them.

While leading the way, the little maid couldn't help but secretly look at Baihui's expression. She saw that Baihui was calm and composed from beginning to end, as if what she was going to see was not the dignified King of Zhennan, but a prince. A very ordinary person.

The little maid secretly exclaimed: I have heard for a long time that this sister Baihui is the first person in front of the Crown Princess, and her demeanor is probably unmatched by the girls in some mansions.

In the little maid's complicated thoughts, Aunt Mei's yard appeared in front of her.

"Sister Baihui, please go this way."

The little maid respectfully led Baihui into the main room, and after asking someone to report, she led the person into the inner room.

The small inner room was a little crowded at the moment.

Aunt Mei sat delicately on the bed, leaning on a large pillow on her lower back. She wore a snow-green velvet forehead wiper. Her face was pale, and her lips had no color. She seemed to be sick. Depressed and weak.

The King of Zhennan was sitting beside the couch, holding his concubine's bare hand with concern.

In the center of the room, a seven or eight-year-old little maid was kneeling on the cold bluestone floor, her whole body shivering like a fallen leaf in the cold wind.

When she saw Baihui coming, Aunt Mei's eyes were half-cast, looking pitiful.

The King of Zhennan frowned. He did not expect that after he ordered the imperial concubine to come over, the imperial concubine would dare to casually send a maid to deal with him.

Baihui ignored King Zhennan's gloomy expression and stepped forward without hesitation. Then she bowed to King Zhennan and Aunt Mei, and then said: "Aunt Mei, the imperial concubine asked your servant to come over and ask what happened."

Aunt Mei did not speak, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she glanced at King Zhennan timidly.

Baihui asked knowingly: "Aunt Mei, may I ask who is delivering medicine to Auntie today?"

Aunt Mei's eyes turned red, she took out a moon-white embroidered handkerchief, wiped the corners of her eyes, and winked at the maid next to her. The maid hurriedly said for her: "That's the bastard!" She pointed at the little maid Mingzhu who was kneeling on the ground and said with indignation, "Thankfully, my aunt likes this girl so much and treats her well, but she doesn't want to miss her. This Mingzhu turned out to be someone harboring evil intentions!"

Mingzhu, who was kneeling on the ground, was shaking even more violently. He opened and closed his mouth, wanting to speak, but he didn't dare. Although she is quite clever, she is still just a child under eight years old.

Baihui glanced at Mingzhu indifferently and asked again, pretending to be suspicious: "This little girl looks very raw. I wonder which courtyard she comes from?"

Aunt Mei trembled violently, glanced at King Zhennan with tears in her eyes, suppressed the grievance in her voice and said: "Miss Baihui, this girl named Mingzhu was just delivered to me two days ago. Come this way..."

Aunt Mei did not mention Nangong Yue's name, but the crown prince's concubine Nangong Yue was in charge of the middle minister in the palace. It is self-evident who ordered the new maid.

Aunt Mei continued: "...the anti-fetal medicine used by me has always been boiled by Zhiman, but today I asked this little maid to bring it in."

So everything was fine before, but something happened today.

The King of Zhennan frowned, and a gloomy aura was released, showing no anger or authority.

Aunt Mei sobbed. Her slender shoulders looked so weak. She touched her flat belly and sighed quietly: "Fortunately, this child is destined to be lucky..."

Baihui watched this wonderful drama with cold eyes.

Obviously, she was implying that the imperial concubine ordered this little maid to tamper with the anti-fetal medicine and attack the child in her belly.

The Crown Princess has no grudges against Aunt Mei, but she and the Crown Prince's husband live together, so the only possibility is that the Crown Prince does not want the prince to have another **** son!

Aunt Mei is really eloquent. She didn't mention the Crown Princess at all, but she guided the prince to think in that direction word by word.

Baihui sneered mentally, but it seemed as if she couldn't understand what Aunt Mei was saying.

She acted as if she suddenly realized something and said: "It turns out she is the new maid who arrived two days ago. I still remember that the eldest, second and fourth maids went to Youning Hall to pick out the maids that day, so I didn't know Who picked this maid, Aunt Mei?"

Aunt Mei sneered in her heart, could it be that the Crown Princess still wants to shift the responsibility to Platycodon?

She frowned and said, "I remember that it was Miss Platycodon that brought this tea bamboo. It must have been picked by the Crown Princess."

Platycodon? ! King Zhennan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered something. Just now he was worried about Aunt Mei and the baby in her belly, but he didn't pay attention to the appearance of this little girl. Now that he took a closer look, this girl seemed familiar.

By the way, Platycodon brought four little maids that day for him to choose from. He picked two that he liked and asked Platycodon to take them to Aunt Mei.

Thinking of what she said just now, King Zhennan said coldly: "I picked this girl. Could it be that I want to harm you?"

What? ! Aunt Mei blinked, a little dumbfounded for a moment. how could be? !

Before she could react, King Zhennan had already stood up and said impatiently: "Good Doctor Wang!"

"Young one is here." The good doctor on the side responded hurriedly and tremblingly.

The King of Zhennan said unhappily: "Let Aunt Mei take a good look at it to see what she has eaten. Pay more attention in the future."

This person was chosen by herself, so there will definitely be no problem, so there is no doubt that Aunt Mei will have fetal gas. It must be because she did not control her mouth and ate something cold!

Looking at Aunt Mei again, King Zhennan felt that she was full of guilt.

Perhaps this was because he was afraid of blaming her, so he was the one who made the first move and blamed the whole thing on the little maid!

The more King Zhennan thought about it, the more he realized the truth. Why did this concubine, who was quite sensible at first, become pampered and coquettish after she became pregnant? ! It seems that he loves her too much and needs to be cold to her for a while!

No wonder the Crown Princess only sent one personal maid. Maybe she thought of this and deliberately avoided it, so as not to embarrass herself in front of her daughter-in-law.

Hey, in the final analysis, a concubine is a concubine and cannot be put on the stage.

Thinking of this, King Zhennan said, "You should have a good rest," and then threw away his sleeves with some displeasure.

"Your Majesty..."

Aunt Mei shouted hurriedly, but she couldn't stop King Zhennan's footsteps. Her face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and her eyes were as dark as ink.

Unexpectedly, the Crown Princess turned out to be more difficult to deal with than she imagined. It is no wonder that not only did Prince Xiao win over her and dote on her, but she also made the Zhennan Prince trust her. In the past few days, she had been blocking several times of temptations, but it had not affected the father-son relationship between King Zhennan and Prince Xiao at all. If this continues, the task entrusted to me by His Highness the Sixth Prince might not be easy to handle...

You have to think of other ways.

Aunt Mei lowered her head, hiding the strange look in her eyes.

Baihui watched coldly, and after King Zhennan left, she said happily: "Aunt Mei, if nothing happens, then I will leave." As she said that, she looked at the little one named Mingzhu. Maid, "Since Aunt Mei feels that Mingzhu is not good at doing things, I will take her away."

She didn't wait for Aunt Mei to react, so she waved Mingzhu away, not caring about Aunt Mei's expression.

The little maid named Mingzhu was still a little confused, but she intuitively got up and followed Baihui. Although her knees were painful and numb, as if they were no longer hers, she couldn't care less. There was nothing more important than her life. It's more important!

Until she left Aunt Mei's yard, the poor little girl still felt like she was in a dream. She couldn't help but pinch herself quietly. Her face was distorted in pain, but she didn't dare to scream.

Baihui noticed her little moves in a funny way, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Just a child.

Baihui brought Mingzhu back to Bixiaotang. At this time, Nangong Yue had already put away the painting tools, returned to the house, and was leaning on the beauty's couch, casually flipping through a travel journal.

Mingzhu bowed respectfully to Nangong Yue. When she met the Crown Princess for the second time, her feelings were completely different. If there is someone like Miss Baihui next to the Crown Princess, then how amazing the Crown Princess must be!

Nangong Yue looked at the little girl's "reverent as a god" eyes and felt a little strange. She thought that the other party had just suffered a big disaster and must have been frightened, so she said softly: "Your name is Mingzhu. ?"

Mingzhu responded quickly.

"Can you tell me what happened today?" Nangong Yue asked again.

Mingzhu collected her thoughts and replied eloquently: "Back to the imperial concubine, I actually don't know what's going on. Aunt Mei has to take three doses of anti-fetal medicine every day these days. Auntie Si made a stove in the backyard. On weekdays, Sister Zhiman boiled and delivered medicine to Aunt Mei. Today, Aunt Mei temporarily called Sister Zhiman to go there because she had something to do, so she asked her slave girl to go there to get the medicine. , and then Aunt Mei suddenly held her stomach and cried out that it hurt..."

To Mingzhu, everything that happened after that was like the angry waves of the sea hitting her one after another. With her weakness, she was unable to resist at all, and could only watch helplessly as she almost died. Being swallowed up... She almost thought she would be beaten to death.

Nangong Yue and Baihui exchanged glances with understanding in their eyes.

This little maid was also unlucky and suffered an unexpected disaster.

Looking at her words and deeds, she is quite smart and her thinking is clear. She should be a teachable talent.

Nangong Yue then asked: "Mingzhu, just stay in Bixiao Hall and work as a sweeper."

Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, and with the ecstasy on his face, he hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, Crown Princess! Thank you, Crown Princess..."

Soon, Huamei took Mingzhu down. It was not easy to stay in Bixiaotang. Mingzhu had to train and train him first. As for her name, "Mingzhu" was given by Aunt Mei, which sounded very unlucky and had to be changed.

Huamei thought secretly and left, then Ying'er came in and reported that the An family had arrived in Luoyue City. They had just handed in a message and wanted to pay their respects to the prince and concubine in the future.

Settle down?

This time, Anjia was added by Xiao Yi later, and he obviously had his own intentions.

So, Nangong Yue agreed without even reading the post.

Next, both the palace and Bixiaotang were busy preparing for the upcoming spring hunt. Two nights passed by in a blink of an eye. Early in the morning, the An family had not arrived yet, but Baihui took the lead first. News from Zhu Xing came.

"Prince Concubine, Butler Zhu said that the matter you told us has been investigated." Baihui said seriously, "Butler Zhu ordered the secret guards to go to Li County and find out the origin of Aunt Mei. Who are Aunt Mei? A few months ago, she fainted from hunger at the entrance of Lijia Village near Li County, and was picked up by a hunter from Lijia Village. At that time, she was still suffering from a high fever, and the hunter had some money, so she asked a doctor to check on Aunt Mei. He spent several taels of silver to save her life. The Orion originally wanted Aunt Mei to be the wife of his stupid son who was still unmarried when he was twenty years old. Who would have thought that the whole family died after accidentally eating poisonous mushrooms picked from the mountain? Aunt Mei was lucky. She happened to go to Li County with a neighbor's aunt to sell embroidery and escaped the disaster. Later, in order to repay her kindness, Aunt Mei sold herself and buried that family. Then she accidentally met I fell in love with Mrs. Qiao and bought her back..."

Finally, he entered the palace by accident.

Nangong Yue casually played with a white jade ring hanging around her waist. Aunt Mei's "story" seemed to have no problem. I am afraid that even if the coffin was opened for autopsy, it would only see a few bodies that died from eating poisonous mushrooms. Dead bodies.

This silly son of Orion is already twenty years old, so he must be quite old. He has been living in the mountains for decades. Doesn’t he still know about the poisonous mushrooms in the mountains?

Besides, since the Orion family can spend a few taels of money to treat Aunt Mei, they must not be too poor to take the blame, and they will not be reduced to selling themselves to bury the whole family.

"I'm afraid there is something fishy about the death of this family..." Nangong Yue squinted her eyes thoughtfully, "If this is the case, the so-called selling one's body to bury her father and her becoming a concubine in the palace may not be a coincidence, but It was deliberately designed."

Nangong Yue recalled what Concubine Wei said that day, whether it was asking for pulse, or the small kitchen, or the matter of anti-fetal medicine two days ago, Aunt Mei did not seem to be competing for favor, but towards Bixiaotang. , or maybe it’s for Xiao Yi and himself...

After Nangong Yue pondered for a moment, he ordered Baihui: "Baihui, go and send a message to Butler Zhu and ask him to continue investigating."

Baihui retreated.

Next, Nangong Yue braced herself to deal with the visiting An Ziang family. There were quite a few people coming from the An family this time. An Ziang and his wife, the eldest son An Minzhong and his wife, and the second son An Minrui all came, filling up the reception hall. All accounted for half.

After everyone recognized their marriage, Mrs. An praised her second son An Minrui again and again, and then asked tentative questions about Xiao Fei, and what she wanted was revealed.

Nangong Yue casually chatted with them for a few words. The An family was also aware of the situation and knew that the spring hunting was approaching and Nangong Yue was at his busiest time. He sat down for a while and left after holding a stick of incense.

Anyway, during the spring hunting, they still have many opportunities to get close to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.

Of course, more importantly, you can also meet Miss Xiao.

As the spring hunt approaches day by day, the entire Luoyue City seems to be busy...

In the evening of this day, a gray homing pigeon flapped its wings and flew into Qingyunwu. As the homing pigeon flew, it carefully looked around, guarding against the sudden arrival of "danger". But what I didn't expect was that there were unexpected dangers along the way. It went smoothly until it fell into Xiaosi's hands. Gray Pigeon still couldn't believe his good luck.

Hai Ge went in, and after a while, Guan Yubai came out and went straight to Xiao Yi's study.

Xiao Yi was admiring the painting proudly behind the desk. When he saw Guan Yubai coming, he couldn't wait to wave and said: "Xiao Bai, come and take a look at this "Peony Beauty"."

Guan Yubai was stunned. Xiao Yi's calligraphy was good, but he was only interested in painting. Why did he suddenly become interested in painting?

He responded, walked over to take a look, and couldn't help but smile.

This is indeed a "Picture of Peony Beauty", but this "beauty" is Xiao Yi, so this painting must have been painted by Nangong Yue. No wonder Xiao Yi is so fascinated by it.

On the rice paper that takes up most of the desk, a man in red can be seen leaning against the window, with a vigorous gray eagle on his right forearm. On the other side of the window, a pot of smart red peonies is swaying in the wind. Just looking at this picture, it seems like you can feel the gentle breeze...

Xiao Si also saw it and twitched his brows. Prince Xiao was still so shameless and actually claimed to be a beauty.

Xiao Yi said ostentatiously: "Xiao Bai, what do you think of Ah Yue's painting?" Only with the true national color of peony, he knew that in Ah Yue's heart he was an unparalleled beauty!

Guan Yu Bai Ren couldn't help but laugh, but since Xiao Yi asked, he looked at the painting seriously. After pondering for a moment, he said: "In this painting, both the people and the flowers have captured their charm. , but although the man and the flower are in the same 'frame', there is no trace of connection between them..."

Xiao Yi looked at the painting again, and he understood it with just one click, and said: "Xiao Bai, you are right!"

He picked up the wolf brush beside him, dipped it in some ink, then added a stroke on the right eye of the person in the painting, then put away the brush and smiled with satisfaction.

When the right eye of the person in the painting is slightly raised, he looks like he is teasing an eagle or looking at flowers, and the painting has an extra bit of aftertaste that makes people wonder.

After Xiao Yi put down his pen, he held Guan Yubai's hand and admired it for a while, then asked with a smile: "Xiao Yi, but there is another letter from the capital?"

Guan Yubai handed him a piece of silk paper.

Xiao Yi looked at it at a glance, and the corners of his mouth curved.

The letter said two things:

First, Han Lingfu, Prince of Gongjun, married the eldest daughter of Commander Chen of the Three Thousand Battalions as his step-princess, and got married in a warm filial piety. The Cui family was deeply resentful about the sudden death of Princess Cui Yanyan, and Cui Wei asked the emperor to seek justice for his daughter. After that, Han Lingfu went to the Cui Mansion to meet Cui Wei. No one knew what they talked about. The result was that the Cui family agreed to Han Lingfu's filial renewal, and Han Lingfu would adopt a girl from the Cui family's branch as a concubine. .

Secondly, there was opposition in the court to the establishment of the fifth prince as crown prince, and it became more and more intense. The emperor had been absent from court for three days.

Xiao Yi put down the tissue paper, without any surprise on his face, and said calmly: "The Emperor really can't hold it anymore."

Guan Yubai said calmly: "If we continue, the establishment of the crown prince will be delayed."

Xiao Yi leaned lazily on the back of his chair and asked: "Xiao Bai, in your opinion, what is the best way for the emperor to act?"
