Imperial Palace, Zhongcui Palace.
A young eunuch came running over.
"My Queen, My Queen, something terrible has happened..."
"Why are you yelling so loudly!" the senior palace maid scolded, "The Queen is beautifying herself, please don't disturb her."
"The news came from the Imperial Study..." the young eunuch said in a low voice.
Omiya's expression twisted, she stepped aside and said, "Come in."
In the room, Concubine Lan was lying on the chaise longue, her right hand supporting her forehead and her left hand stained with Dankou.
The substitute eunuch was waiting at the side with a bowl of milky white medicine, and said flatteringly,
"My Lady, this medicine contains Tian Xin Lian, which is a great tonic for replenishing Qi and nourishing blood. Take half a tablet daily in a decoction. Within a month, your skin will be as white as snow, and you will regain your former glory."
Concubine Lan slowly raised her phoenix eyes and asked, "Is there really something in the world that can restore youth?"
"Really? The herbalist has already tried it himself. A fifty-year-old woman looks less than thirty."
"Oh..." Lan Fei sat up, "Bring it here."
Just as he was about to drink it, the senior palace maid came in with the young eunuch.
"Your Majesty, there is news from the Imperial Study."
The young eunuch hurried forward and said, "Today, His Majesty mentioned that the youngest daughter of the state-guarding general should be married to the Third Prince, saying... that she should be his queen."
Clang——
The porcelain bowl fell to the ground, and the soup splashed everywhere!
The palace maids and eunuchs were so frightened that they fell to their knees.
"Your Majesty, do you really say that?" Concubine Lan stared at the young eunuch with a murderous look in her eyes!
"It's absolutely true. Your Majesty did not hide from others. People outside heard it with their own ears." The young eunuch said tremblingly.
"Why!" Lan Fei angrily swept the bottles and jars on the table and yelled without caring about her image.
"Why did you make that sickly fellow the Crown Prince? What is it about my prince that he doesn't like? Is His Majesty blind?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please be careful with your words!"
Insulting His Majesty is a crime of disrespect, and she just shouted it out loudly.
The people in the entire palace were so frightened that they dared not breathe.
"Be careful with your words! Be careful with your words! How is my Qin Yu inferior to that sickly guy? How is he inferior to him?"
Lan Fei smashed half of the porcelain decorations in the room, and finally calmed down.
"Send a message to the eldest prince, asking him to return immediately. His Majesty hasn't announced it yet, likely intending to confer the title around the New Year. We must reverse the situation before then!"
…
Fengchen Palace.
The queen was leisurely reading a book and drinking tea at the stone table.
Han Qinmo and a group of palace maids and eunuchs stood under a pear tree, nervously pulling at the hems of their clothes and stretching out their hands, some ready to catch the pears, some ready to catch the children.
"Chaoxi, stop picking. There are enough to eat. Come down quickly." Han Qinmo shouted anxiously.
"It's not enough, there are still many..." The little guy climbed up another branch to reach higher pears.
The queen looked at the bustling courtyard and Han Qinmo's nervous expression, and couldn't help but chuckle.
"It seems like it would be a good idea to have them together..."
After Rong Chaoxi had picked all the pears he could, he finally agreed to come down from the tree.
She picked up a pear and took a big bite. The pear was so juicy that it leaked out from the corners of her mouth and sprayed everywhere.
"It's delicious. Xiaosan will give it to you." The little guy's eyes sparkled as he shared his delicious food with Han Qinmo.
Han Qinmo wiped the pear juice off his face and shook his head helplessly.
"You picked these with great effort. Keep them and eat them slowly."
Take off the leaves on the little guy's head and put on his little hat.
At this time, a palace maid came to report that the Rong family was here to pick someone up.
Han Qinmo packed all the pears for Chaoxi, and then he and the queen sent the little guy out of the palace.
"Chao Xi, can you come to the palace to play tomorrow?"
"good."
"Then I'll pick you up tomorrow."
"Yeah, bye, Xiao San."
Rong Chaoxi lay on Rong Yubai's shoulder and kept waving at Han Qinmo.
Han Qinmo never let go of his hand as he said goodbye.
The queen stood behind and watched, folding her hands to her chest and smiling meaningfully.
"Xiao San, if you like her, your mother will help you talk to Madam Rong and arrange a marriage for you two, so that you won't be abducted by others in the future."
"Mother!" Han Qinmo put down his hand, turned around and scolded, "Why are you acting just as crazy as father?"
After giving the queen a resentful glare, he ran towards the palace.
"Really?" The queen followed slowly.
"No, Chaoxi is my sister."
"Are you sure it's just your sister?"
"Chaoxi is less than two years old, don't be too outrageous."
"Decide it first, you can return it later."
"don't want."
"What if someone else snatches it away?"
“…”
The mother and son walked along the long and quiet palace road, one chatting endlessly and the other saying "no" at the same time, in a warm and cozy atmosphere.
…
Chiang's Mansion.
The elders of the two families were talking about their marriage.
Rong Xuqing lowered her head and absentmindedly played with the silk flowers on her belt.
Jiang Lingyu was standing opposite her, looking at her quietly.
Jiang Xinran stared at his elder brother with disappointment, propped up his head, and yawned out of boredom.
Jiang Lingcheng had fallen asleep on the table.
"The ninth day of the first lunar month in two months is a good date. Why not choose that day? It's early winter and the weather is cool, so the children won't feel hot even in their heavy wedding attire."
"It's enough time to prepare the wedding ceremony. What do you think?" asked Mrs. Jiang.
"Two months later... isn't that a bit too soon?" Qin Nanjing looked at Rong Xuqing. "Xuqing, what do you think?"
"...Hmm?" Rong Xuqing was stunned for a moment before he understood their question. He raised the corners of his lips slightly, "It all depends on my parents' arrangements."
"Okay... then..."
"Wait..." Jiang Lingyu suddenly stood up and interrupted, "Dad, Mom, Uncle Rong, Aunt Jing..."
He glanced at Rong Xuqing, who was slightly stunned, and continued, "Can we discuss the wedding date later?"
Everyone in the room was stunned.
I never expected that Jiang Lingyu would be the one who suggested waiting a little longer.
"That's fine." Mrs. Jiang was the first to react. "Xu is still young, so we can wait until the New Year. There are still many good days after the New Year. We can discuss it then."
"Yes, yes." Minister Jiang agreed, "This is indeed a bit sudden. I'll feel at ease if the two children get along with each other for a while and become familiar with each other... Haha... Hahaha..."
The situation suddenly became awkward.
Dad, if you can't speak, then don't speak! They've known each other for ten years. They're still familiar with each other! ?
Jiang Xinran was secretly complaining in her heart.
The Minister of Justice can't even smooth things over!
"Daddy and Mommy, I'm back..."
A gurgling sound suddenly broke in, and with a "clang", the frozen atmosphere was instantly broken.
Our Chaoxi is truly an angel! Jiang Xinran shouted in her heart.
"Chaoxi picked a lot of fruits today, they are all delicious."
The little guy ran into the house, put the bag on his back on the ground, and started to share the pears.
After everyone got the pears.
"Why are there two rows of teeth marks on each one?"
