After the founding of the People's Republic of China, she became a spirit and was punished, and

"Spring time."

Xiyu waved her hand, motioning her to come closer.

"Find someone you trust to slip this note into the Yonghe Palace, and don't let anyone see it."

Harutoki nodded and walked out quickly.

Although she didn't understand why Defei looked at them with hatred, she still wanted to remind them since she could tell them with just a move of her fingers.

The palace is full of dangers, and no one knows when they will fall into someone else's scheme.

It's always good to have more people and more paths just in case.

What's more, the Fourth Master and Concubine De are biological mother and son. Even if something big happens, they will always be seen as one to outsiders.

Dong Shuang ran in from outside and brought the news that the Empress Dowager had heard about what happened in Yonghe Palace and scolded Concubine Hui.

It was said that she did not put her heart into the emperor, but was thinking about trivial things all day long, so the emperor removed her green card and ordered her to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures in the palace.

The description of winter frost is very vivid and the expression is just right.

Xiyu held up her handkerchief to cover her lips and chuckled. This girl is really a drama queen. It's a pity not to send her to the theater.

"Fujin, the Queen Mother has sent you so many rewards, which are several times more than what the Third Fujin received."

Qiu Xu lowered his voice. After all, the Third Lady Dong E lived in the East Second House next door, so he had to be careful as there might be ears on the other side of the wall.

"These are all precious medicinal herbs. Perhaps they are because they know that you have been in poor health since childhood and you were frightened today, so they are specially used to replenish your body."

Xiyu looked at the rewards piled on the table and felt very grateful, but then she pinched her brows.

From yesterday till today, rewards have been flowing into the East Third Office like water, and reading the record lists gave her a headache.

There are a lot of things and they are all mixed together, but fortunately the warehouse is big enough to hold them all.

"I'll leave it to you. You know how to preserve the herbs best."

She handed the task over to Qiu Xu, determined to be a hands-off manager.

"Fujin, Princess Song and Princess Li are here to pay their respects to you."

A palace maid reported back at the door.

Xiyu sat up straight, assumed the demeanor of a lady of the house, and sat at the head of the table in a dignified manner.

"Let them in."

Song walked in front and Li walked behind. Supported by the little palace maids, the two of them bowed and greeted each other.

The rules and etiquette are very neat and complete, and there is nothing wrong with them.

Xiyu gave the two of them a seat and drank tea from his cup, but he was actually observing them secretly.

Song had the appearance of a beautiful girl from a small family, not particularly outstanding. She lowered her brows and looked very respectful. There was a strong fragrance as her clothes swayed.

If her maid had not slandered her in front of others before, she would have been deceived.

Li, on the other hand, had a slender waist, perky hips, tender lips and a delicate nose, and a bright and charming appearance.

A pair of bright big eyes glanced at her secretly, looking very curious.

"I heard that Madam Fu had a premature birth and was often ill. I am worried that it will affect your fertility, so I specially prepared a few ginsengs that are several hundred years old, hoping that they can help."

Oh~she said she can’t have children.

Song's words are much easier to understand than those of the palace concubines, and they are quite straightforward.

Xi Yu smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for your concern. However, the master of Baohua Temple said that I have a destiny of having many children and great fortune. Otherwise, the Emperor would not have appointed me as the Fourth Master's wife."

"Moreover, the matter of reproduction also depends on the harmony of yin and yang. You have never served the Fourth Master, so you don't know the true secret."

Hearing this, Song's face turned pale, and she lowered her head with a forced smile, "Fujin is right."

Looking at her poor acting skills, Xiyu really wanted to send her to Concubine De for further training.

After saying a few more words, she pinched her eyebrows. The fragrance from Song's body gave her a headache.

"You guys should go back first. It's cold and the roads are slippery. There's no need to come and greet if you have nothing to do."

Under the cover of clothes, Qi Xi moved her wrist.

【Don't worry, the incense is non-toxic. 】

Xiyu nodded dejectedly. It seemed that her body was too weak and she couldn't stand even a little bit of incense.

She undressed and lay on the bed, her mind relaxed, and she felt a little lazy.

I felt listless the whole afternoon as I couldn't get rid of that smell.

How could such a pretty girl use such strong incense? Her taste is really poor.

When the Fourth Master sent someone to call her for dinner in the evening, Xiyu was still not in the mood.

"You said it was because of the incense on Song's body?"

Yinzhen held the teacup, his eyes slightly gloomy.

After not seeing her for a few hours, the lively and lovely little concubine became sickly.

Thinking of this, the aura around him suddenly turned cold.

"Tell Song not to use such strong-smelling incense in the future. I don't like it."

Gao Wuyong responded and was about to ask someone to pass on the message when he was stopped again.

"Also, tell them not to go to Fu Jin's place every day to pay respects. They can go on the first and fifteenth day of each month."

"Master, Fu Jin means that there is no need to greet you if there is nothing else."

Gao Wuyong lowered his head and reminded him kindly, but he didn't expect the Fourth Master's face to darken slightly, and his eyes were cold, "Are you my servant or my wife's servant?"

The Fourth Master hates people who have two minds the most!

He immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to apologize, the cold sweat on his back soaking his clothes, "This slave deserves death, I will pass on the message right away."

"It's good to know."

Yinzhen snorted coldly, then added calmly: "Just do as Fu Jin said."

Gao Wuyong tripped when he stepped over the threshold and almost rolled out.

My master is really... If the lady doesn't like him, he doesn't like him.

He shook his head with tears in his eyes. He thought his life would be better with a concubine, but he didn't expect that the Fourth Master would become even more moody.

At the entrance of East Third House, Gao Wuyong ran into Doctor Zhao who was sent by the Fourth Master. The two exchanged glances when they passed each other.

Zhao Kuangsheng, upon learning that the Fourth Master was in a bad mood, bowed and greeted him timidly.

"This subordinate pays respects to the Fourth Master."

Yinzhen sat in front of the sandalwood desk and said to him, "Come here and take my pulse."

"Yes, Mr. Lao, please extend your hand."

Zhao Kuangsheng placed his hand on his pulse with trepidation, tapped his pulse lightly a few times, and then stopped with his fingers clasped around his wrist.

Apart from the residual poison in the body, there is nothing unusual about the pulse, and...the old illness has not improved significantly. What does the Fourth Master want him to see?

Didn't the Fourth Master give up on the matter of his descendants? Could it be that he wants to cure the disease again after marrying his wife?

It was an October day and the wind was chilly, but beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead.

He really couldn't guess what his master was thinking!

"Just say anything."

Seeing his frown, Yinzhen felt that his guess might be confirmed.

Zhao Kuangsheng knelt on the ground and described his physical condition truthfully.

"Nothing unusual? For example, someone used drugs or poison on him."

Yinzhen's face was stern and his emotions were unrecognizable.

"No, except for the remaining poison, there is no other abnormality in the pulse. As for what you said about last night... How about I take your pulse again?"

Yinzhen refused without even raising his head, and then waved to him.
