After becoming a princess, she fell in love with the emperor of the enemy country
Chapter 91: Willing but unable?
"Where?" Qi Wuyou asked impatiently as Mei Xue just closed the door of the palace.
Although Concubine Rou didn't know why Qi Wuyou was so anxious, she still said truthfully, "Baohua Palace, in the hands of the Imperial Concubine."
After hearing this, Qi Wuyou frowned so much that he could kill a fly with it, "Why is it with her?"
She remembered that her mother said that the Yunwu Grass was presented to the old man by Chen Youhe. How could it be in Concubine Yin's hands? Could it be that the old emperor gave it to her?
This is good news, at least there is accurate information about the cloud grass.
Compared with the old emperor’s treasury, the treasure house in Baohua Palace is much easier to obtain.
Concubine Rou thought for a moment, organized her words, and said, "I was sent to the palace by the Fourth Prince. I was originally a concubine in the Fourth Prince's mansion."
"The Fourth Prince mentioned this to me. Many years ago, Your Majesty accidentally got this herb. However, the Imperial Concubine had a history of heart palpitations. At that time, Your Majesty still doted on the Imperial Concubine. After the Imperial Concubine had been persuading him for a long time, Your Majesty gave this herb to the Imperial Concubine."
"The Fourth Prince said that the imperial concubine only took one leaf of that herb and her heart palpitations were cured."
"By the way," Concubine Rou added, moving closer to Qi Wuyou, "The Fourth Prince wanted to see if this herb had any miraculous effects, and he asked the Imperial Concubine many times, but she refused to give it to him."
Qi Wuyou was stunned after hearing this. What does it mean to have the will but not the ability?
Qi Wuyou looked at Concubine Rou's indescribable expression, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. Is it possible that the Fourth Prince is a pervert, but he is also impotent?
Concubine Rou nodded with a grim expression, thinking that she was really guilty of a heinous crime. If she hadn't been honest with her master, she would not have let her master's ears be polluted by these dirty things.
Qi Wuyou was thoughtful. Didn't they say that Concubine Yin loved her son as much as her life? Why was she reluctant to give him even one herb?
Qi Wuyou thought so and asked the same question.
Concubine Rou shook her head. She didn't know what was going on.
Qi Wuyou asked again, "Are you sure the herb is still in Baohua Palace?"
Concubine Rou nodded. "Although I have never seen what the cloud grass looks like, I have heard that this herb must be fresh to be used as medicine. After picking it, soaking it in water can make it stay green all year round."
Qi Wuyou nodded. It was true, his mother had said that.
But she had been to Baohua Palace twice and had never seen this herb.
Concubine Rou continued, "The herb is in Concubine Yin's bedroom."
"Half a year ago, Concubine Yin caught a cold and became ill. When I went to visit her, I discovered this herb by chance."
Qi Wuyou nodded, that was almost right.
It seems that Ye Ershi has to find a way to sneak into the palace and steal.
Qi Wuyou didn't dare to ask the old emperor for it directly, otherwise, given Concubine Yin's temper, she might destroy the Yunwu Grass.
As for why it was Ye Ersi? Because although this guy is not very good, he is still Ye Jiu's apprentice.
As the son-in-law of the emperor, Ye Jiu must attend the old emperor's dinner and cannot get away. There is no guarantee that Concubine Yin will not leave a fake one there, but Ye Ershisi may be able to identify it.
Lianxiang happened to come back at this time. Qi Wuyou raised his eyebrows and thought, why not let Lianxiang go over and take a look first?
As soon as Lianxiang entered the room, she was met with the malicious gaze of her own queen. Lianxiang swallowed unconsciously, "Why are you looking at me like that, queen?"
Qi Wuyou smiled and pulled Lianxiang over to him, "Lianxiang, how do I treat you?"
Lianxiang looked at the hypocritical smile on Qi Wuyou's face and was at a loss. Madam, please don't be like this. I'm afraid. Although she was horrified in her heart, Lianxiang didn't show it on her face. She only whispered, "Madam, of course, treat me very well."
"Since you are so nice to you, can you go through fire and water for me?" Qi Wuyou's eyes sparkled.
Lianxiang was at a loss as to what to do, and she felt that something bad was going to happen, but she still nodded and said, "Your Majesty, please tell me what to do."
Qi Wuyou held Lianxiang's hand and said, "It's nothing serious. Have you ever stolen anything?"
Lianxiang was shocked. How did the queen know that?
Before Lianxiang could respond, Qi Wuyou continued, "For the Queen Mother's sake, you must go to Baohua Palace right now and steal the Cloud Mist Grass."
Lianxiang:? Queen Mother? Cloud Grass?
Lianxiang took a long time to react before she remembered that the Queen Mother was waiting for Yunwucao to save her life. Looking at the current situation, it seems that the Queen Mother has confirmed that Yunwucao is in Baohua Palace.
Qi Wuyou thought for a moment and added, "It doesn't matter if you can't steal it. Life comes first. Anyway, mother is here, so there is no need to rush. Besides, we still have at least ten days before we can go back. You go and explore the way first. If you can get it, that's the best. If not, it doesn't matter. Evacuate as soon as possible to avoid alerting the enemy."
Lianxiang nodded and left.
Knowing that Lianxiang would not be back soon, Qi Wuyou simply had lunch in Jingyang Palace.
After dinner, Qi Wuyou and Concubine Rou were taking a nap in the pavilion beside the pond.
There was a gentle breeze and the scent of flowers. It was beside a pond and quite cool. Qi Wuyou lay leisurely on the recliner and was about to fall asleep.
"Little bitch!" I heard her voice before I saw her. Concubine Li's voice rang out from far away.
Qi Wuyou frowned, without even opening his eyes, pretending not to hear.
Why can’t I get rid of this damn plaster?
When Concubine Rou saw that Qi Wuyou didn't move, she simply didn't move either.
Concubine Li rushed to Qi Wuyou, glanced around, and saw that there were only two maids beside her, and the two who knew martial arts were not there.
Concubine Li snorted coldly, her sharp nails almost poking Qi Wuyou's face, "Little bitch, hurry up and get up, or I will make you pay."
As she said this, she was about to strangle Qi Wuyou, but Qi Wuyou was not someone who would allow herself to be bullied. She dodged nimbly, went behind Concubine Li, and kicked her so hard that she looked like a dog eating shit.
"Didn't your parents teach you that pointing at people is impolite?" Qi Wuyou put her hands on her hips. In her previous life, she had had enough of the dean's dictatorial attitude. She hated it most when someone pointed at her.
This sentence really hit Concubine Li's sore spot, as her parents loved her younger brother.
Her younger brother is one year younger than her. He has the best food and clothing in the family, while she has been treated like a slave since she was a child and only eats hard steamed buns with pickles.
Later, when her younger brother got married, her parents sold her to a brothel for ten taels of silver.
Concubine Li struggled to get up and rushed over to fight again, but Qi Wuyou nimbly dodged again.
This is all thanks to Xuan Yelan who taught her some self-defense tricks when he had nothing to do these two days. She is still far from being able to fight, but it is much easier to deal with a brainless, weak, and martial arts-less person like Concubine Li.
Concubine Li fell flat on her face again. This time she didn't get up. She stared at Qi Wuyou with red eyes, pouted her lips and started crying.
Qi Wuyou: “…” No, why is she crying? She didn’t really hit her, and she fell twice just now.
Concubine Rou shook her head and sighed.
Qi Wuyou was at a loss, "Um...you...don't cry." She had never made a girl cry before, so how could she know how to comfort her.
Concubine Li cried even harder, still not feeling relieved, and cried and shouted, "You just bully me."
Qi Wuyou disagreed with this and asked back, "When did I bully you?"
