140 Peace Pulse

Princess Changning was under house arrest on the surface, but in reality she could not leave Yong'an Palace.

But with Concubine De around, Princess Changning didn't suffer at all.

After hearing the servant's report, she lazily came to the side hall.

When she saw Grandma Gao standing there, she coldly called out "Grandma Gao" as a greeting.

Grandma Gao felt uncomfortable, but smiled and said, "The Queen asked me to tell the princess that she can be released from her confinement from now on. The princess must be bored for so many days. There are many new things in the city. The princess can go out for a walk and relax."

Princess Changning's expression remained unchanged, she just nodded slightly when she heard this.

Seeing this, Concubine De smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Madam Gao, for making this trip. I also want to thank the Empress for her kindness."

She waved to the palace maid behind her and casually took off the gold and jade bracelet on her wrist, "Mammy, please accept this little bit of hard work fee and go back to tell the Queen that Changning has realized her mistake."

Changning watched the scene coldly without saying a word.

Nanny Gao took the bracelet from the palace maid, thanked Concubine De, and then turned and left.

After everyone left, Concubine De looked at Changning and sighed, "Changning, for the Queen's sake, you shouldn't have been so cold to Grandma Gao just now."

Chang Ning curled her lips and said, "He's just a servant! Why should mother be so careful?"

She thought of Concubine De's cowardly behavior that day, and her anger rose. "Mother, can you please not be so cowardly in the future? Mother is Concubine De! Why do you have to be so cautious with everyone?"

Defei slapped Changning on the face and said angrily, "How dare you!"

This was the first time Changning had been beaten since she was a child, and the beating came from her mother who doted on her the most.

Chang Ning's eyes instantly turned red. She covered her cheeks and looked at Concubine De in disbelief: "Mother, you, you actually hit me?"

Defei also looked at her palm in disbelief, then looked at Changning who was covering her face with a look of grievance, and shouted worriedly: "Changning, are you okay?"

Changning turned around and ran away, running all the way out of Yong'an Palace.

Defei did not chase after her, but sent someone to follow Changning.

Changning ran directly to the Empress Dowager's bedroom - the Cining Palace.

At that time, Jiang Lu, dressed in an official robe, was checking the pulse of the Empress Dowager Mu Guiying.

Suddenly, a crying voice came from outside the door: "Grandmother, your granddaughter Changning is here to visit you."

Mu Guiying looked outside the door in surprise, and a face that looked like a little cat appeared in front of her.

When she saw the five finger marks on Changning's cheek, she immediately said angrily: "Who is so bold as to hit my dear Changning?"

Changning was feeling uncomfortable at the moment, so she naturally didn't care that there was a strange man beside the empress dowager. She ran forward and threw herself into Mu Guiying's arms.

"Grandma, it was my mother who beat me."

A hint of surprise flashed across Mu Guiying's eyes.

The person who loves Changning the most in the palace must be Concubine De.

But today, Concubine De actually hit Changning?

I really don’t know what kind of outrageous things Changning did to make someone as soft-hearted as Concubine De angry.

Mu Guiying's expression was no longer as worried as before. Instead, she asked seriously, "What did you do to make your mother angry?"

When Changning heard this, he stammered and couldn't answer.

With this reaction, what else does Mu Guiying not understand?

She pushed Chang Ning away from her legs, and then her tone became a little colder: "Okay, go sit aside first, I will let Lord Jiang check Ping An's pulse first."

Changning had calmed down by now. After hearing what the Queen Mother said, she quickly wiped away her tears and sat down aside.

She just watched quietly as Jiang Yun took the Queen Mother's pulse.

Then he asked curiously, "Grandma, wasn't it always Doctor Wei who checked your pulse in the past? Who is this Lord Jiang?"

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Lord Jiang is the newly appointed Medical Saint by your father. He was also specially appointed as a Imperial Academy Medical Officer. He is now a third-rank official."

Changning frowned and looked at Jiang Yun inquiringly.

Upon closer inspection, I found that this Medical Saint looked very handsome.

Especially that pretty little face, whose skin was smoother than that of a woman like hers.

Changning became fascinated as he watched.

Changning was not awakened until Jiang Yun told the Queen Mother the results of Ping'an's pulse, wrote her a prescription, and was about to leave.

She called out to Jiang Yun directly.

"Master Jiang, my face hurts. Do you have any medicine to relieve the pain?"

Jiang Yun sighed, turned around and replied respectfully: "In reply to Princess Changning, I came here in a hurry and did not bring any other medicine. I hope Princess Changning will forgive me."

Chang Ning looked at Jiang Yun with an infatuated look on her face, "Then Lord Jiang, can you check my pulse as well?"

"nature."

"Then you can also help me take my pulse!"

After Changning finished speaking, he pulled up his sleeves, revealing his slender, white wrists.

The Queen Mother looked at Changning's appearance and couldn't help but cough lightly.

Changning withdrew his gaze from Jiang Yun with difficulty and turned to the Queen Mother.

How could the Queen Mother not know about Changning's bad habits? After all, she had taken care of Changning for a while when she was a child.

She said, "Changning, Lord Jiang still has to go to Chong'an Palace, so don't make trouble."

Upon hearing the three words "Prince Chong'an", Changning's face instantly turned gloomy.

There was a thread in her mind that connected them all.

Could this Lord Jiang be the miracle doctor that my father invited back from somewhere specifically to help Fu Xuanyu?

The more Changning thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.

In this case, she didn't want Lord Jiang to go to Chong'an Palace.

She wanted to drag Lord Jiang along even more!

But she couldn't do this kind of thing in front of the Queen Mother.

After all, the Queen Mother favors Fu Xuanyu more.

Chang Ning pulled down her sleeves and said with a smile, "Yes, Grandmother, it was Chang Ning who overstepped his authority."

Seeing this, the Queen Mother nodded and said to Jiang Yun, "Master Jiang, I will ask the nanny beside me to take you out of the palace."

Leaving the palace?

Changning's eyes lit up when he heard these two words.

She immediately walked up to the Queen Mother and started acting coquettishly.

"Grandmother, I haven't left the palace for a long time. I want to leave the palace and visit my brother Yu'er."

Mu Guiying is old and can't handle Changning's tricks.

She waved her hands and said, "Alright, alright! You're going to break my old bones."

Changning stopped when he heard this and looked at Mu Guiying eagerly.

"Go, go. When you get to Chong'an Palace, you must behave yourself and not cause trouble again. Especially after you see Yu'er, you must not make him angry, understand?"

Changning nodded and said, "Okay."

In this way, Changning got her wish and followed "Jiang Lu" out of the palace and went to the Chong'an Palace.
