Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Ye Lie's mind raced. This must have been Ning Zhiwei's secret plan. Otherwise, with Shaoyao's personality, how could she ask him for it?

Ning Zhiwei is too greedy! She has deceived everyone!

"I promise you, no matter how difficult it is, I will ask Master for a Hundred Flowers Detoxification Pill, Shaoyao, I am sincere to you."

Shaoyao was overjoyed, "Really?"

Ye Lie looked at her affectionately, "Really, but this can't be rushed, we have to wait."

Shaoyao was very happy, her eyebrows curved, "No hurry, no hurry."

She felt that her words were a bit harsh and was a little embarrassed. "I have some rare medicinal herbs here, can you see if they can be used?"

This is compensation for him.

Ye Lie nodded without hesitation, "Okay, I'll prepare a pill of ginseng nourishing qi pill, which is specially used to regulate the body of weak and sick women."

"If you're interested, we can pair up together."

"Okay." Shaoyao likes to study these things. It would be even better if someone guides her.

Ye Lie looked at the innocent girl, his eyes flickering, "There are wars everywhere now, so it's really hard to get these medicinal herbs."

Shaoyao smiled proudly and said, "My young lady is very smart. She bought a lot of medicinal materials long ago and planted various herbs in the northwest in advance. My Baiyao Villa also planted a lot of them. If you need anything, make a list for me and I will find them for you."

"Thank you very much." Ye Lie reacted three beats late, "By the way, you have another villa?"

Shaoyao nodded with a smile, "Yes, the lady gave it to me. She said that I was obsessed with medicine and didn't know anything else, so she prepared the things I would need for the rest of my life."

A villa full of medicinal herbs. Behind the villa is a big mountain. The mountain has all kinds of rare and precious herbs. The produce of this villa alone is enough to make her well-fed and well-clothed.

In addition, she was given dividends from more than a dozen pharmacies, so she would never have to worry about food and clothing in her life and would not have to look at anyone's opinion.

This is the confidence given by Ning Zhiwei.

A strange light flashed in Ye Lie's eyes. It seemed that the bond between the two was deeper than imagined.

General's Mansion, Study

Ning Zhiwei held the teacup with a nonchalant look.

The subordinate reported, "My lord, Ye Lie is very interested in Baiyao Villa and has been there three times in the past few days."

"He gave Miss Shaoyao several precious prescriptions, saying they were the secret treasures of Medicine King Valley."

Xiao Linfeng, who was sitting opposite him, sneered, "Oh, I don't believe a word of it."

The subordinates did not even dare to raise their heads, "Miss Shaoyao was extremely happy and gave Ye Lie more than a dozen carts of precious medicinal herbs as a return gift."

Xiao Linfeng's face turned pale, and a hint of murderous intent appeared in his eyes, "He dares to cheat me of the medicinal materials. I will kill him!"

"continue."

The subordinate said cautiously, "The two of them have been refining a Qi-boosting pill recently, and they have been very close."

Ning Zhiwei nodded and said, "Remember, don't let them stay alone in a room."

"Yes, I will take turns to stand guard at one side and never leave."

Ning Zhiwei reminded him, "You also have to be on guard and don't let others take advantage of you."

Xiao Linfeng's heart skipped a beat, "Are you worried?"

"Peony is very polite, but that guy is from Medicine King Valley. What if he uses medicine?"

Xiao Linfeng wanted to draw his sword again, "I'm going to kill him!"

Rong Jing's mouth twitched. How many times have you said this? Aren't you annoyed?

"grown ups."

Xiao Linfeng looked over and saw that it was his subordinate. "Any news?"

"Yes." The Royal Guards handed over a stack of information.

Xiao Linfeng took it, hesitated for a moment, and handed it to Ning Zhiwei first.

Ning Zhiwei opened it and started reading. The corners of her mouth gradually lifted, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

"This guy is quite interesting."

Xiao Linfeng looked at it, and Rong Jing also looked at it, and their expressions did not look very good.

Rong Jing cleared his throat and changed the subject, "Zhiwei, your birthday is coming in a few days. I will hold a grand banquet for you and invite all the officials and generals in the northwest region to come and celebrate with you."

Ning Zhiwei refused outright, "It's wartime, don't mobilize the troops, let them stay in their positions. Let's find a restaurant and invite everyone to have a meal together."

She insisted on keeping it simple, and Rong Jing had no choice but to say, "Okay, let's just go to Phoenix Tower."

This is a scaled-down branch built by Ning Wenyin based on the style of Fenghuanglou in Beijing. It is the busiest restaurant in Licheng.

Ning Zhiwei's birthday is coming soon, and Shaoyao is a little anxious because she can't find a gift that suits her.

She doesn't care about those ordinary things.

Her lady deserves the best in the world!

She sat under the eaves in a daze, and a figure gradually approached, "Peony."

Shaoyao raised her head and smiled at him, "Brother Ye, why are you up so early today? Have you had breakfast?"

"I've eaten it." Ye Lie sat beside her, glanced at her, and then looked around calmly.

The guards are not here? Where did they go?

He took out a brocade box with a smile on his face, "I have a gift for you. This is warm jade, which is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is very nourishing, especially for women with cold body."

Warm jade? As a doctor, Shaoyao knows the benefits of warm jade, which is better than daily food supplements.

However, this thing is too precious and rare in the world. Even if you search the whole world, you will find that only the emperor wears it.

"I can't accept something this precious."

Ye Lie forced the jade into her hand and said, "You and I are not strangers. What's mine is yours. If you feel bad about it, give me a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng."

"This..." Shaoyao hesitated. This warm jade was smooth and moist, with a delicate texture and felt warm to the touch.

This stuff is really good.

"Thank you very much. I will give you three old mountain ginsengs and one thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum."

No matter how simple Ning Zhiwei's birthday is, it can't be too simple.

Rong Jing booked the Phoenix Tower to celebrate Ning Zhiwei's birthday.

The officials and generals of the Licheng were entertained, without disturbing other places. Relatives, friends and family members were also invited.

That night, the guard reported, "My lord, that woman has entered the city."

Ning Zhiwei was shocked. She had finally waited for this day. "Very good. Everything will go according to plan."

"Yes."

Early in the morning, Ning Zhiwei dressed up beautifully and went to the ancestral hall first to burn incense for General Ning and her biological mother.

She also accepted congratulations from all her subordinates, and after a lively time, she rushed to the Phoenix Tower.

She arrived neither too early nor too late, and quite a few people had already arrived.

As soon as she got off the carriage, she saw Shaoyao and Ye Lie coming together.

When Shaoyao saw her, she immediately ran over. "Miss, I'm here. You are so beautifully dressed, like a fairy from heaven. You look good in military uniform, but you look even better in women's clothes."

Ning Zhiwei smiled slightly and looked at the man behind her. "Ye Lie, welcome to my birthday party."

A trace of surprise flashed in Ye Lie's eyes, and he cupped his hands, "Thank you for your invitation. I wish you good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as great as the Southern Mountains."

"go in."

Shaoyao pulled her in, her eyes sparkling, "Wait, I want to be the first person to give a birthday gift."

She took out the warm jade and presented it to you, "Miss, this piece of warm jade is slightly warm, and it is most suitable for you to maintain your health."

She liked this piece of warm jade very much, but of course good things should be given to her own daughter.

It is inevitable that the young lady will be injured and develop illnesses while fighting on the battlefield. With this piece of warm jade, her health will be much better and she will not be plagued by injuries and illnesses in her later years.

Ning Zhiwei's gaze fell on Wen Yu, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
