Drunk Bamboo

Passing by Fengwang Mansion, Hua Qinfeng first gave the Flower God Incense to Xie Yuzhu.

Then they went to the Taifu Mansion together.

Xie Yuzhu took the sachet, opened it immediately, poured out the flower god incense inside, and began to study it carefully.

Yun Ling put down the tea and stared at the flower incense on the table with a dazed look.

"Princess, is this the flower goddess incense used by the Crown Prince of the East Palace?"

"You can smell this is the scent of the flower goddess?" Xie Yuzhu asked casually, and then continued, "You always forget that you have been in the palace for many years, including the Eastern Palace?"

"I used to work in the flower room. When I was delivering flowers to the palaces, I went to the Eastern Palace. I noticed that the pattern on this sachet was special. It looked like it belonged to the Eastern Palace. The Crown Princess didn't use any incense. I saw from afar that the young prince used a sachet. The incense inside was the Flower God Incense."

"You are indeed a very observant person." Xie Yuzhu praised sincerely, his eyes still focused on the Flower God Fragrance.

"You can't make mistakes when living in the palace." Yun Ling murmured softly.

Xie Yuzhu didn't hear it.

Yunling stood quietly aside and did not disturb them.

After an unknown amount of time, Yun Ling asked in a low voice:

"Is there something wrong with the Flower God Incense?"

"At first glance, there's nothing wrong with it. I still need to think about it more." Xie Yuzhu finally raised his head.

Seeing Yunling's lips turn pale, he asked with concern: "Yunling, why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?"

"It's okay, I'm fine." Yun Ling shook her head quickly.

"I noticed something was wrong with you yesterday. You even smashed the dishes and bowls. Today you look pale. Come here and I'll take your pulse."

Xie Yuzhu stretched out his hand.

Yunling was always the one taking care of her, but she didn't notice that Yunling was not feeling well.

"I'm really fine." Yun Ling took a step back.

"Are you worried about my medical skills?" Xie Yuzhu stared at her and asked.

"No." Yun Ling shook her head, then walked closer and held out her hand, "Please feel my pulse, Princess."

After Xie Yuzhu carefully took Yun Ling's pulse, she did not breathe a sigh of relief, but looked straight into Yun Ling's eyes.

"There's nothing wrong with my body."

Yun Ling didn't care about her body at all and silently retracted her hand.

"Does the princess suspect Gao Fengyu?"

"Why do you ask?"

"The Flower God Incense was personally blended by Gao Fengyu. If the princess thinks there's something wrong with the incense, then there's something wrong with the person."

Yun Ling lowered her eyes, as if deliberately avoiding Xie Yuzhu's gaze.

"Yunling, are you worried?" Xie Yuzhu looked at Yunling and said softly, "You are fine physically, but you are upset mentally."

It means that there is something on your mind.

In the palace, is there anything that cannot be told to her?

Yun Ling pursed her lips and said nothing, and Xie Yuzhu did not urge her.

Wait patiently for her to speak.

When Yun Ling raised her head, tears welled up in her eyes:

"Gao Fengyu is the head of the palace's pharmacy. He is also the miracle doctor who saved people from the plague ten years ago. He is the Fengyu appointed by His Majesty. He was also found by the Imperial Concubine. I am afraid... afraid..."

Afraid of the truth.

She has been searching for the truth, but she is afraid of the truth itself.

The plague ten years ago was like a hellfire, claiming the lives of thousands of people.

She was also afraid of bringing trouble to the palace, the prince, the princess, and everyone in the palace.

She didn't dare tell the princess.

"Don't be afraid, Yunling. No one else will know about the prescription or the Flower God Incense. Gao Yin won't know, and neither will the Imperial Concubine. I just want to take a look and understand what they originally looked like."

Xie Yuzhu held her hand and comforted her softly.

"If Gao Yin really has a problem, the prince and I will slowly solve it."

"Yun Ling, you are no longer alone in the palace, you are now a member of the Feng Palace."

"I am the legitimate daughter of the Xie family, one of the four famous families in Rao country, and the prince is the third prince of the current emperor."

"The prince is no longer the same prince, and the Feng Palace is no longer the same Feng Palace. Now we have people in the palace and in the court, and we will not fight against the strong with the weak."

"If Gao Yin is related to the plague and dares to murder the prince, we will not let him go no matter who is behind him."

After Xie Yuzhu's comfort, Yunling's mood gradually recovered.

“Hmm…hmm…” Yun Ling nodded with tears in her eyes.

The princess is really nice.

Zhang Mansion

After seeing Master Zhang, Qi Zhen gave instructions to Butler Zhang.

"The weather is suddenly hot now, and it is still a little chilly in the morning and evening. Master, you have caught a cold. It's nothing serious, but the quilt should not be too thin at night."

"Yes. I have remembered it all. I will pay attention to it."

"I'll get a prescription. Just take two doses."

"Doctor Qi, this way please."

Butler Zhang took Qi Zhen to write a prescription.

Hua Qinfeng sat in the house and talked with Master Zhang.

"I have caught a cold, Your Majesty, you are so worried, but there is no need to mobilize all the troops to ask Doctor Qi to leave the palace."

There was no difference in Master Zhang's expression, but his spirit was not as good as before.

"'A scholar must regard poetry and literature as his life, and a man must establish his foundation on filial piety and brotherhood.' This is what Grand Tutor taught me the other day. Have you forgotten it?" Hua Qinfeng poured a cup of warm water for Grand Tutor Zhang.

"I want you to be filial to your parents and respect your elder brother."

Although Master Zhang was not thirsty, he took the cup with relief, held it in his palm, and felt warm all over.

"Didn't the ancients say that once a teacher, a father for life? The ancients also said to respect the old and the young, not only your own but also others'. The Grand Tutor asked me to read more books by ancient sages, so I will put them into practice." Hua Qinfeng said with a smile.

Hua Qinfeng used these famous sayings with ease, leaving Master Zhang with no reason to refute.

In fact, Hua Qinfeng just respects his teacher, feels sorry for this teacher, and is genuinely kind to this teacher.

Throughout his life, Master Zhang has been self-disciplined and strict with himself. Today, out of selfishness, he felt at ease accepting Hua Qinfeng's efforts to mobilize troops for him.

"Your Highness has made rapid progress," Imperial Tutor Zhang praised.

Hua Qinfeng grinned happily.

After Qi Zhen prescribed the medicine, he got up and left.

"Taifu, please have a good rest. I will come again in a few days when you feel better."

Master Zhang nodded.

Steward Zhang escorted them out of the house, and when he came back he said to Master Zhang:

"Master, King Feng has really become a different person now."

"Is it good or bad?"

Butler Zhang: "Of course he is good. He is good at both literature and martial arts, filial and polite to others."

Zhang Taifu stopped laughing and said, "He is good. But it may not be good for him."

Butler Zhang was puzzled, but did not ask any more questions.

Several people got on the carriage, and Chaoyang asked:

"Will your Majesty return home first?"

"Go to Anhe Restaurant."

"Yes."

The carriage started to move.

Qi Zhen said uncomfortably: "My Lord, I can go back to the palace by myself, no need to trouble you."

Hua Qinfeng: "Do you think I'm so free? I'm just sending you there on my way."

Qi Zhen laughed dryly: "I understand, I understand."

The road was flat, and we suddenly stopped at an empty corner.

A woman in plain clothes stopped the carriage.

"Who is blocking the road?" Chaoyang pulled the reins in time.

"Master Chao, Hongmei wants to see the prince!"

The woman in plain clothes raised her head. She had no makeup on her face, but her beauty could not be concealed.

The red plum blossoms in Taohua Tower.

"My Lord, do you still remember that you owe Hongmei a favor?"
