Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

After seeing off Lord Cheng'en and his wife, Huiyun and Rongniang immediately went to report to Chen Qingzhu.

"Master, we have delivered the elixir to Lord Cheng'en." Huiyun said.

Both of them had many doubts.

Rong Niang asked the question first:

"Mother, are we going to support the Empress and let her defeat the Imperial Concubine?"

It was only after she came to the capital that she gradually learned about what happened to her mother in the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion.

The so-called blessing actually almost cost my mother her life.

The stepmother Zhang herself harmed the eldest brother Pei Jin, but she put the blame on her mother, using the safety of the two siblings to force her mother to take the blame.

If her mother had not been smart and threatened her stepmother Zhang to find a way to survive, she would not have had the chance to pray and would have been executed by her father directly.

Not only that, to this day, the couple has not given up their plan to continue enslaving and torturing my mother.

Therefore, she fully understood and supported her mother's hostile stance towards her stepmother and father.

The art of war says "to capture the bandit, one must first capture the leader". To deal with the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion, one must first deal with its backer, Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi.

This was what she understood her mother's intention behind this action.

Chen Qingzhu shook his head:

"of course not."

Huiyun knew more than a young girl like Rongniang, so she was worried about something else.

"Master, I remember that the Queen is not a person of outstanding appearance, and she is already thirty-six or thirty-seven years old. I am afraid she has already fallen out of favor."

"Will our elixir be completely ineffective?"

After all, if a woman wants to get pregnant, no matter how well she nourishes her body, it will be useless without the cooperation of the man.

Chen Qingzhu gently curved her lips and said:

"The Queen will do her best to resolve the problem you are worried about."

"So, our elixir will definitely work."

The Queen will definitely try her best to make the best use of this hard-earned elixir.

Moreover, for her, the purpose of this bottle of magic dew is mainly to frighten the tiger and to test the waters, and it can play its due role in any case.

*

Everything was just as Huiyun had worried.

In Kunning Palace, after seeing off the wife of Duke Cheng'en, Queen Jiang held the bottle of hard-earned elixir with a worried look on her face.

She's really useless.

I'm almost forty years old, and my parents still worry about me so much.

No one knows when they will get the next bottle of such precious elixir.

But because she had no children in the palace, her elderly parents could not keep the fairy dew with them to protect their lives.

Thinking of her mother's eager eyes full of concern and worry, Queen Jiang felt that the small porcelain bottle in the wooden box was as heavy as a thousand pounds.

She didn't have the face to tell her mother that His Majesty had not slept with her for many years.

I come to Kunning Palace on the first and fifteenth day of every month, and either sign in and leave, or just sleep.

Even if she took the elixir, it would be very difficult for her to have a child.

It was impossible for her to be as flattering and favored as other concubines.

It is a loss of dignity for the mother of the nation.

Moreover, at her current age, even if she swallowed her pride and did it, she might still fail and end up bringing shame upon herself.

"Mother, what's wrong?"

Nanny Qin, her confidant, walked into the hall and saw her worried look and spoke with concern.

Nanny Qin was Queen Jiang's wet nurse. In her heart, she treated Queen Jiang like her own daughter. Seeing her so worried, she was naturally worried.

Queen Jiang also trusted Nanny Qin very much.

The two of them have been in the palace for twenty years, and it is no exaggeration to say that they depend on each other.

When Queen Jiang heard Nanny Qin's question, she did not care too much about her face and told her all about her problems.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to think about it."

The two thought from day to night, and then to dawn.

Nanny Qin finally came up with a good idea.

"My lady, in my opinion, it would be better to present this celestial dew to His Majesty."

Queen Jiang was shocked:

"But Ma'am, this elixir is hard to come by. If we give it to His Majesty, it will be hard for us to get a second bottle."

Nanny Qin smiled and shook her head:

"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong!"

"Now, the most important thing is to let His Majesty see your loyalty. Such a good thing, everyone hides it, only you care about His Majesty, and as soon as you get it, you present it to His Majesty."

After all, they are a young couple.

Even so, His Majesty no longer has any romantic feelings for Her Majesty, but Her Majesty's concern for his loyalty is also a very rare and true feeling to His Majesty, and it will also move His Majesty.

"It's rare for us to get a second bottle of this elixir. Your Majesty, as the ruler of a country, may not be so. When he gets the elixir from the national teacher, how could he forget the queen?"

When the queen heard this, she suddenly understood.

Yes, she was blinded by one thing and forgot about it.

"Mammy is right! Since we at the Duke Cheng'en Mansion can obtain this elixir, other concubines and ministers may also be able to obtain it in the future. By then, someone will definitely think of presenting this item to His Majesty, and we must seize the opportunity!"

With Nanny Qin's advice, Queen Jiang could naturally draw inferences about the specific words she gave.

Soon, she thought of the most favorable statement for herself, and then took the fairy dew to the Qianqing Palace, the bedroom of Emperor Yong'an.

*

"Your Majesty, the Queen wishes to see you."

Emperor Yong'an buried his head in the memorial without raising it.

"Xuan."

He also planned to go to Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi to visit the mother and her four children after finishing dealing with these important papers.

The Queen was always boring. She only came to the Imperial Study to bring him some soup or to report important official business. For him, there was nothing worth his attention.

Not long after, Queen Jiang walked into the imperial study and paid her respects.

As always, she did not dare to waste Emperor Yong'an's time and said straight to the point:

"Your Majesty, yesterday my mother's family obtained a bottle of celestial dew from the Grand Imperial Master."

The fairy dew from the Grand Imperial Master... these words immediately aroused the interest of Emperor Yong'an.

The magic mist created by the Grand National Master could restore dying plague patients to health. After those dignitaries with mild illnesses went in to absorb the magic mist, they found that not only were the plague cured, but their bodies also became much stronger.

It is not difficult to imagine what surprising effects would be achieved if a healthy person absorbed the divine mist.

And this elixir sounds like a good thing.

Seeing Emperor Yong'an looking up at her, Queen Jiang continued:

"It is said that it can strengthen the body, cure all diseases and injuries instantly, and can also make women more likely to get pregnant. It is extremely precious and rare!"

She looked at Emperor Yong'an with concern, "But I personally feel that there is nothing more important in this world than your Majesty's health, so I decided to present this elixir to your Majesty!"

Before Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi entered the palace, no child had been able to gain a foothold in the palace for many years.

Everyone had some doubts in their hearts about Emperor Yong'an's fertility.

But this is taboo for an ordinary man, let alone an emperor.

Therefore, Queen Jiang naturally did not dare to mention the effect of this magic dew on male fertility.

Emperor Yong'an was somewhat surprised, but also somewhat moved.

After all, the goal of the Cheng'en Mansion was very clear. The bottle of magic dew they requested was to help the Queen have a son.

However, the queen was able to give up her own interests and offer him the elixir, which shows her sincerity towards him.

Emperor Yong'an stepped forward and held the Queen's hand, and his eyes softened when he looked at her.

"Thank you so much for your kindness, Zi Tong!"

He asked Wang Zhong to accept the elixir.

Queen Jiang was also slightly delighted when she saw this.

It seems that what Mammy said was right.

She made the right move in presenting this to His Majesty.

Thinking of her mother's instructions, Empress Jiang also reminded Emperor Yong'an:

"Your Majesty, to be honest, this elixir was obtained by chance from the young master of the Imperial Master's Mansion. It has been stored for a long time, so the medicinal properties will evaporate in eight days. Your Majesty, please remember to take it in time!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yong'an frowned suspiciously.

"Is this what the young master of the Imperial Master's Mansion instructed?"

Queen Jiang didn't understand why his expression suddenly changed.

I can only tell the truth:

"Yes."

Emperor Yong'an asked in detail about the process of obtaining the elixir.

He had never given up his suspicion of the God Du'e, and the more he listened, the more he felt that the matter was full of conspiracy.

With so many powerful people vying to curry favor with the young master of the Imperial Master's Mansion, why is the Jiang family being treated differently?

No matter how you look at it, it seems that Su Changshi's special care for the Jiang family is a bit deliberate.

Moreover, the bottle given was a magic dew that would lose its effectiveness in just ten days.

No one is sure whether this means that you must have sex within ten days of taking the medicine.

The queen was old and ugly, so naturally she had no guarantee that she would be favored within ten days.

Then, her best option is to give the medicine to herself.

If he didn't know that the subordinates of the God of Du'e had dealings with the people of Shu, he would not have been too suspicious when this fairy dew was presented to him by the Queen.

In addition, since there is only one bottle, they are so precious that even for poison testing, they are reluctant to take too much.

If the Shu King's rebels really intended to poison him in this way, then he would most likely fall into the trap!
