"The second prince looks very much like the emperor when he was a child. He will definitely be a handsome man when he grows up."
The nanny who was speaking was from the Queen Mother's side, and was specially assigned by Li Hongting. It can be seen that in his heart, the second prince was more important.
Jin'er walked in from outside: "Your Majesty, the Concubine Xian is outside."
"Why don't you just let her come in?"
"Her Majesty the Concubine was afraid that the Second Prince was sleeping, so she specially asked this servant to come in and take a look."
Qin Jingzhi smiled and shook his head: "She is very careful, please let her in."
Lu Shian walked in from outside with a smile: "I am already outside the house."
"Come quickly. I've been bored to death recently. I wanted to summon you, but since you still have to take care of the eldest prince, I don't think it's appropriate to ask you to come."
"Do you think I don't want to come? I'm just afraid of disturbing your rest."
"Look at me, I have gained a lot of weight."
"How can you be fat? You are round and smooth, with skin as smooth as a baby's. I think you are more beautiful than before."
"Thank you for the gift, too."
The two of them were like sisters, holding hands and talking about whatever they thought of, and they were very happy.
When it was time for lunch, Qin Jingzhi invited her to have lunch with him.
"I want to, too. Unfortunately, Chen'er is still waiting for me. After some time, I will come and take Chen'er with me. I hope Your Majesty will not chase us away then."
"Come quickly, come quickly, there are only these two children in the harem, and they will be companions in the future."
When Lu Shian came out of Fengyi Palace, he saw Concubine De admiring flowers in the Imperial Garden. He thought that Concubine De had helped him last time, so he should go up and say thank you to her. But at this time, it was more like waiting for someone than admiring flowers.
"Sister Defei is in such a refined mood that she is still admiring the flowers at this time."
"My sister has met Sister Xianfei."
"You are so polite, sister. I haven't thanked you for what happened last time."
"I'm so happy to be able to help my sister."
This really confused Lu Shian. She remembered that she had no contact with this person. Why would she say, "Oh?"
De Fei covered her face and chuckled: "Sister Xian Fei, I'm afraid you don't know what the people outside think of you."
"evaluate?"
The people called her a fairy who came down to earth to save everyone, and said that there was a limerick specifically praising her. She knew all this, but she didn't know that someone like Concubine De would believe it.
"Don't you know, Sister Xianfei?"
"It's not like they don't know. The people are having a hard time, but the grain yield is high. They have expressed their gratitude."
"It's more than just gratitude. The Dayuan Kingdom has too little arable land and has always been short of food. But after you made that high-yield food, the yield per acre of land is more than two or three times higher than before. The food shortage dilemma of the Dayuan Kingdom has been reversed in an instant."
"It's not just food, but also vegetables, fruits, etc. In the past, in winter, ordinary people didn't have any vegetables to eat at home. They couldn't even find wild vegetables. They only had pickles and porridge. In addition, the weather was cold, and ordinary people didn't have much firewood to use. It was common for people to freeze to death."
Lu Shian looked at Concubine De in surprise. How could a pampered young lady like her know all this?
De Fei scratched her head in embarrassment, as if she saw through Lu Shian's confusion, and said, "When I was a child, I was weak, and a wandering Taoist priest said that I could be raised in the wild before I reached the age of marriage, so he sent me to the countryside to be raised. There is a village not far from where I live, and people there freeze to death or starve to death every winter, so it's not uncommon."
"So that's how it is. No wonder Sister Defei knows so much about farmers' affairs."
"It is because of this understanding that you have such respect for Sister Xianfei. I have always wanted to meet you and want to know how you know so many things."
"Well, it's a long story."
"Can you tell your sister?"
Lu Shian choked. This is really hard to explain.
As if she could see Lu Shian's embarrassment, Concubine De quickly waved her hand and said, "I'm just asking casually. Don't worry, sister. It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. Anyway, in my heart, sister is the most amazing woman. Your inventions are beyond the reach of many outstanding men."
"Uh, Sister Defei is exaggerating a bit."
"No, not only did you make people's lives better, you also provided them with jobs. I know you have established many factories, some of which only recruit women, and some of which you have set up..."
"Stop, stop..."
Lu Shian couldn't help but stop: "Sister Defei, have you investigated me?"
De Fei's face turned red immediately: "I just want to know what kind of person my sister is."
Lu Shian rubbed his brows and said, "So you are my fan?"
"Um, vermicelli? What is it? Is it the same as rice noodle? Can it be eaten?"
Lu Shian: “…”
"Sister Defei, I remembered that I have something to do, so I will go back to the palace first."
"Ah, okay then."
Concubine De seemed very disappointed, but she still bowed obediently: "Then sister will go and get busy first."
Lu Shian had just taken a few steps when she called him again: "Sister, sister, can I go to Ganquan Palace to play with you when I am free?"
Lu Shian smiled and nodded, answering her question.
After they walked away, Que'er said, "The Empress Defei usually looks very generous and decent. This is the first time I've seen her like this."
Xier smiled secretly: "Our queen is so powerful, it is only natural for Concubine De to worship her."
Lu Shian couldn't help but complain: "You two have been in the palace for so long, and you are still so naive. I don't agree."
After entering Ganquan Palace, Lu Shian immediately realized that something was wrong.
Quiet, too quiet.
Que'er and Xi'er looked at each other, then ran past Lu Shi'an into the hall. Lu Shi'an suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.
Just as Que'er and Xi'er stepped in, they saw the hall was full of people from Ganquan Palace kneeling. Seeing them coming back, Lu'er stood up first.
"The eldest prince was taken away by Cheng An."
When Lu Shian heard this, he became furious.
She turned and went to Zhonghe Hall.
For so many days, she has been staying in Ganquan Palace, just to keep a low profile. She thought that even if she didn't leave the palace, she could keep a low profile in the palace and live in peace. Now it seems that she was too naive.
Li Hongting had been asking people to keep an eye on Ganquan Palace, and as soon as she left the palace, he immediately asked someone to take the eldest prince away.
When they arrived at Zhonghe Hall, the guards outside the door stopped Lu Shian directly outside.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has instructed that you not to see anyone today."
Lu Shian glanced at the sword against his chest and said, "Get out of the way."
"Please don't make things difficult for us, Madam."
"I'll say it again, get out of my way."
The guards didn't move.
Lu Shian took a step forward, and the sharp blade of the sword pressed tightly against Lu Shian's skin.
The guards didn't dare to do anything to Lu Shian and could only ask him not to make things difficult for them.
"Please show mercy, Your Majesty. The Emperor said that if you go in today, we will all lose our heads."
