Why do you always rush to join me after awakening?

"Luckily, I still have some herbs for making sunscreen. I'll make it as soon as I get back and send it to you—"

Jiang Yebin shuddered when he thought of Ruyi pouting and asking him if he was pregnant. He immediately changed the subject and told Rong Xin, "I can't send it to you. I'll go check Meipin's pulse tomorrow at noon. We'll meet outside Yonghe Palace then."

"it is good."

Jiang Yubin was so scared by Ruyi.

If you want to send something to惢心, you have to do it secretly and meet other concubines.

When惢心 came back after sending Jiang Yubin away, Ruyi was sitting on the stone steps outside, supporting her chin with her right hand, shaking her head, and admiring her left hand in a playful manner.

Ruyi was clearly manic when Ling Yunche left, but now she is like a young girl in love, feeling so happy that no one knows what she is thinking.

惢心 didn't want to make herself unhappy, so she was about to walk away when Ruyi called her.

"惢心, what do you think of Jiang Yebin?"

Hearing Ruyi ask such a question,惢心 replied without any defense, "Doctor Jiang is a very good person."

"I also think he's pretty good."

I don’t know if it was her illusion, but why did she feel that Concubine Xian was saying something with a hidden meaning?

"By the way, Suo Xin, go make some ginseng soup later."

With a worried look on her face, Suo Xin said, "Master, it's so hot now, I guess we can't make ginseng soup to drink."

"Who said I was the one who wanted to drink it? Jiang Yubin just mentioned that the Queen Mother was not feeling well. I have to go and show some concern for her."

"..."

I’m afraid Ruyi is seriously ill.

Otherwise, would he be so keen on making soup to bring warmth?

As slaves, they just have to obey whatever their master says.

Something unexpected happened while I was making the soup.

I don’t know what was wrong with Ruyi’s brain, but she actually followed her into the small kitchen and started giving her instructions.

"Don't cut it. Ginseng is best when it's whole. Just put the whole root in there."

Looking at the ginseng in her hand, which was as big as an adult man's palm, Suo Xin said in embarrassment, "Master, I'm afraid this won't work."

If the Queen Mother drank it, she would be very strong and would have nosebleeds all the time.

Ruyi squinted her eyes at惢心 and said dissatisfiedly, "I'll let you go if you ask me to. It's not like I'm worried about this ginseng."

"it is good."

In the end,惢心 put a whole ginseng root into the casserole.

Ginseng and black chicken soup, just by smelling the aroma, 惢心 felt her face flushed and her whole body hot.

It was a hot day, and Suo Xin stayed in front of the stove for more than an hour, and finally the food was cooked.

During this period, Ruyi even took a nap.

"Done?"

"It's ready, my Lord. Do you want to send it to the Queen Mother now?"

Ruyi stood up and put on her shoes, not forgetting to put on her armor, and ordered, "Chicken soup is best drunk hot. Let's go."

"Yes."

惢心 carried the soup with a miserable look on her face and followed Ruyi slowly towards the Cining Palace.

Finally arrived at the gate of Cining Palace, unexpectedly, Concubine Mei was also there.

"Noble Concubine Xian, are you here to visit the Queen Mother?"

Ruyi didn't have a good look towards Meipin. She hummed coldly and walked in first.

Meipin was too lazy to expose Ruyi's little thoughts. With a smile on her lips, she entered the Cining Palace together with Ruyi.

"Your Majesty, this is the ginseng and black chicken soup I personally made for you. Please have a sip."

Ruyi held the chicken soup with her hands shaped like chicken claws, and looked at the empress dowager without blinking, as if forcing her to drink it.

Zhen Huan was lying on her side on the couch. When she saw Ruyi coming over, she was not in a good mood. She looked indifferently at Ruyi's hand holding the chicken soup. Just one glance and her eyes were attracted by her armor.

There was sticky dirt hidden in the gaps of Ruyi's armor, and it looked like it had never been cleaned at all.

"I don't want to drink this soup for now."

But Ruyi was so stubborn that she insisted on forcing the Empress Dowager to drink.

"Empress Dowager, this is something I made especially for you. It can nourish your body. Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhen Huan took a few deep puffs from her cigarette and continued perfunctorily, "I'm not feeling unwell. Noble Concubine Xian should keep this soup for yourself. I remember you're weak, so it's just right for you to replenish your body."

However, Ruyi seemed unable to hear the rejection in Zhen Huan's words.

He started to show his stubborn temper and started to hold the soup bowl in front of Zhen Huan's face.

"Ruyi! Are you forcing me to drink soup again?"

Ruyi looked at the ground with dry eyes and pouted, "I dare not."

Zhen Huan sneered in anger, put down her pipe, and said sarcastically, "You don't dare? I've seen that you've always been very brave. Okay, leave the soup here. I don't want to see you anymore. Go back quickly."

"No, I must watch you finish drinking."

Meipin, who was standing by, rolled her eyes almost to the sky. At this moment, her mother tongue was speechless.

The Empress Dowager secretly said no, and it was useless to say it openly. Ruyi was determined to watch Zhen Huan drink the soup.

People who don’t know her think she is very filial.

"That's enough, Concubine Xian. The Queen Mother obviously wants to rest. She can drink the soup in a while. Let's go and don't disturb the Queen Mother's rest."

Bai Ruiji could be said to have gotten rid of this annoying person for the Queen Mother.

"Queen Mother, you must drink!"

As soon as Ruyi left, the Cining Palace seemed to be much quieter.

Zhen Huan looked at the black chicken and ginseng soup on the table in front of her, and her face instantly darkened.

I really want to take two more breaths to calm down.

"Fujia, what the hell did the Ulanara family teach them?"

Fujia looked at the ginseng, which was slightly inferior in appearance but extremely complete, and said helplessly, "Empress Dowager, perhaps the Ulanara family has not yet taught Concubine Xian these things."

"Alright, quickly take this soup away and you take care of it. I wasn't feeling bad at first, but now I feel bad just looking at this soup."

After saying this, Zhen Huan pretended to be heartbroken and fell over.

Seeing this, Fujia had no choice but to take the black chicken and ginseng soup out.

These days, if you hate someone, even the way she breathes might be wrong.

Before pouring out the soup, Fujia deliberately took out the whole ginseng.

At this time, the blue cat raised by Zhen Huan seemed to smell the scent of the black chicken and actually came over following the scent.

Before Fujia could drive it away, the blue cat quickly picked up a black chicken leg and ran away, making it impossible to catch it.

"You greedy cat, the Queen Mother hasn't treated you harshly before."

Turning around, Fujia instructed several palace maids, "Be careful, everyone. When Huihui comes back, wash him thoroughly to prevent him from getting stained with the smell of black chicken and upsetting the Queen Mother."

Unexpectedly, because of this black chicken leg, Huihui did not return to the Cining Palace for three consecutive days.

On the fourth day, Wei Yanwan found him on the lawn.

"Am I seeing things right? This cat seems to be indulging in sexual pleasure, perhaps excessively?"
