Wen Mianmian woke up and found herself transmigrated into a show girl at the Qing Dynasty's selection of consorts. That&...
Soon, Fu Jin woke up slowly.
When Nanny Chang and Nanny Li saw that Lady Fu Jin had woken up, they immediately felt relieved.
When she woke up, she saw herself lying on the bed and there were many people standing in the room.
"What's wrong with me?" Fu Jin looked at Nanny Chang and asked.
"Fujin has been too tired recently. The court doctor said you need to rest well."
The wife of the eldest prince is indeed very busy these days because she is about to get married.
Therefore, Fu Jin has been taking care of things these days despite being ill, and she is not at ease to hand these matters over to others, for fear that someone might tamper with them.
They had tried to persuade her before, but Fu Jin refused to listen. They had no choice. She had been feeling much better in the past two days, but for some reason she suddenly fainted today.
"Yes, Madam, you should take more care of your health and don't overwork yourself." It was Princess Song who said this.
"I understand. You all can go back. I'm fine here."
When the Fourth Lady saw them here, she felt that they were laughing at her, so she felt even more uncomfortable.
"Then Fu Jin, have a good rest, we will go back first."
After they had all left, Fu Jin turned her gaze to the court physician and asked, "House physician, how is my health?"
She knew that the court doctor had something else to say.
Because she had a headache when she fainted just now, she felt that her fainting was not just due to excessive fatigue.
"It's your old headache. I think it's because you haven't had enough rest recently, which has aggravated the headache. I'll prescribe some medicine for you later. If you rest well for a while, you'll be fine."
"Thank you, doctor."
After the court physician left, Nanny Li arranged for someone to wait for the court physician to bring the medicine back.
"Fujin, please take a rest. I'll call you back when the medicine is ready."
The Fourth Lady nodded. She was indeed still feeling a little dizzy and really needed to rest for a while to relax.
When Honghui heard that his mother had fainted, he put down what he was doing and went to the main courtyard.
At this moment, the Fourth Lady is still resting in the room.
When Nanny Chang saw the prince coming, she hurried forward.
"Greetings to the prince."
"Madam, please get up. By the way, I heard that my mother fainted. What happened?" There was anxiety in his voice when he said this.
"Don't worry, my lord. The concubine is fine. She just didn't get enough rest recently. The palace doctor said that she will be fine after more rest."
When Honghui heard that his mother was fine, his worries were relieved.
"Is mother in the room? I'll go in and see her." Honghui took a step and wanted to go inside.
But she was stopped by Nanny Chang, "My Lord, the wife is resting in the room."
Honghui paused and said, "Okay, then I won't go in and disturb Mother. I'll come back later."
"Okay~"
——
Wen Mianmian returned to her Zizhu Courtyard and saw two little boys running towards her.
He excitedly called out, "Mother~"
"Why are you two here?"
These two were Wen Mianmian’s twin sons, the eighth son Ruirui and the ninth son Nannan.
"We are resting today, so we came to see mother." The eighth brother said with a smile, and secretly winked at the ninth brother.
"Yeah, yes, we missed our mother, so we wanted to come and see her."
They just thought they were doing a good job, but they didn't know that this made it easier for Wen Mianmian to see through them.
Based on past experience, Wen Mianmian guessed that the two of them must have gotten into trouble again.
But she didn't expose them right away, "Oh, really."
The two brothers nodded quickly.
"Okay, then go in."
Wang An wanted to come over at this time, but he was pulled aside by Hahazhuzi who was beside Ruirui and Nannan, saying that he had something to talk to him about.
Wen Mianmian saw it out of the corner of her eye but didn't say anything. Instead, she continued walking into the house.
Ruirui and Nannan saw their mother come in, looked at each other, and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Wen Mianmian walked into the house and sat down, and the two of them followed her in.
Ruirui said with a smile: "Mother, are you thirsty?" He brought the flower tea he had just brewed to his mother.
"Mother, this is the flower tea I just made. Please try it and see if my cooking skills suit your taste."
Wen Mianmian glanced at him, and Ruirui immediately showed a flattering smile
Wen Mianmian: “…”
She took the tea from his hand and began to drink it slowly.
Finally, he gave a mediocre evaluation: "Well, not bad."
Nan Nan then walked over with the cakes that had been prepared in advance and grinned.
"Mother, there's this thousand-layer cake. Didn't you say it was delicious before? We bought it for you outside. It tastes great when paired with this flower tea."
Wen Mianmian also ate a piece out of courtesy.
After they finished eating, Wen Mianmian looked at them and said, "Tell me, what trouble have you gotten yourself into again?"
The smiles on their faces suddenly froze.
We secretly glanced at each other, wondering how come my mother found out so quickly this time.
Seeing that they were still communicating with their eyes, Wen Mianmian raised her hand and tapped lightly on the small table, her eyes fixed on the two of them.
"Hurry up, leniency will be given to those who confess, severity will be given to those who resist. If you don't tell the truth, I will call Wang An in later. Don't beg for mercy then." Wen Mianmian said with a stern face.
She felt something was wrong when she saw the two of them here just now, and it was even more wrong when they were so attentive just now.
The two of them must have gotten into trouble. According to past experience, they would never do these things. They would only do them after getting into trouble.
So as soon as they showed such expressions, Wen Mianmian knew that this matter might not be simple.
Ruirui nudged Nannan with her shoulder and said with her eyes, "You go ahead."
"No, no, no, you are older than me, you say." Nan Nan kicked the conversation back to him.
Seeing that they were still hesitating, Wen Mianmian said, "Hurry up, Xiao Ba, you tell the story."
Ruirui felt a little nervous when she saw that her mother had personally called out her name.
However, seeing the look in his mother's eyes, he didn't dare to hide it anymore and told her what they had done.
"We demolished the upper study yesterday."
"What did you say?" Wen Mianmian suspected that she had heard it wrongly.
"We tore down the upper study." Ruirui closed his eyes and said, that's why they didn't enter the palace today.
"You demolished the upper study." Was it the kind of demolition she imagined?
How can the upper study be demolished?
"That's it..." Ruirui then recounted in detail how they demolished the study and committed the crime.
Wen Mianmian's temples began to throb when she heard this.
I even wanted to hit someone with the soles of my shoes.
