After the cake was made, Jiang Muyu called Yun Yan and the three guards over.

She cut the round cake into several pieces and said, "Come on, everyone, try it and see how it tastes."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I won't be polite then." Yun Yan was very excited. She picked up a piece and put it into her mouth.

The three tall and strong guards had never eaten anything she cooked before, and were frightened by her words "try it for poison". They didn't dare to move at first, until they saw Yunyan raising her thumb while eating, then they each picked up a small piece and tasted it.

The guard on the far left finished eating and couldn't help but praise: "Your Majesty's pastry is so well made! It's soft and creamy in the mouth, and it's not too sweet. It's really the best pastry I've ever tasted in my life."

The guard in the middle echoed, "I think so too."

The one on the far right nodded: "Me too."

Jiang Muyu waved his hands in embarrassment, "I'm just showing off my skills for a little while. I'm not that good."

After Yunyan ate a piece, she licked her fingers and said, "My queen, if you sell this cake, you will definitely make a lot of money."

"Our Yun Yan is really smart. This is exactly what I had in mind." As she said this, Jiang Muyu raised her hand and rubbed the top of her head.

Yun Yan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

Jiang Muyu took a piece of cake to give to Shao Huo Yatou.

The little dumb girl was a little overwhelmed when she saw the cake she was handed over to her, and she quickly shook her head and waved her hands.

Jiang Muyu said, "You're welcome. You helped me, too. I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. This is my reward for your good fire."

Yunyan also said, "Take it, or the queen will be angry."

The fire-making girl wiped her hands on her clothes quickly, then nodded and bowed while taking the cake from her hand.

Jiang Muyu always felt that this girl was quite pitiful. However, at the age of fourteen, she could not speak and had a congenital red birthmark on her forehead. As a result, she was very timid and afraid of people. She must have felt inferior from the bottom of her heart.

Jiang Muyu showed no sympathy, and walked back to the three guards and said, "Eat all of this."

The three of them did not refuse and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Then they each took another piece and started eating.

Jiang Muyu started cracking eggs and separated the egg yolks and egg whites and put them into four bowls.

Yun Yan watched her perform this familiar operation, and her arm ached slightly. Her eyes twitched, "My Queen, you are not going to do another one, are you?"

"Yes, you guys ate up all the test samples, so of course we have to make a new one."

"Uh..." The four people opposite them suddenly looked ashen, and even the half-eaten cake no longer tasted delicious anymore.

…

After Jiang Muyu finished making the cake, he put it in a food box and took it to Wutong Courtyard himself.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Nanxing being taught by her teacher how to practice martial arts. Tangtang watched her do a horse stance and followed her to bend her legs and stretch her arms.

The gentleman saw her and was about to salute, but she stopped him.

She quietly walked to the stone table beside her, put down her things, and looked at the two little girls, one tall and one short, in front of her.

Nanxing has become a lot rounder recently, and looks healthy, not as malnourished as when she first arrived. Her facial features have also become more delicate. In time, she will surely grow into a stunning beauty.

Over there, Nanxing was keeping her hair tied steadily, but sweat was gradually seeping out of her forehead and nose, but she remained motionless.

Tangtang couldn't hold on. Less than a quarter of an hour later, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground. Jiang Muyu had been watching from the side without disturbing them, but when he saw Tangtang fall, he ran over and helped the little girl up.

"How are you? Are you hurt?"

Although Tangtang was young, she didn't cry or make a fuss when she fell. Seeing her, she said happily, "Mom, mom, I'm learning martial arts from Sister Nanxing."

"Mom saw it." She took out a handkerchief and wiped the mud off Tangtang's face.

Tangtang glanced at Nanxing who was standing still, and suddenly pouted her lips, saying unhappily, "But I couldn't hold on any longer, I'm not as good as Sister Nanxing."

"Tangtang is only three years old and has the perseverance to study, which is already amazing." Jiang Muyu smiled softly and said, "Daddy said that Sister Nanxing is a good candidate for martial arts training. She is naturally very good, but if our Tangtang works hard, she will be able to catch up with Sister Nanxing one day."

Tangtang nodded vigorously: "I will work hard and not hold my brother and sister back."

"Okay, our Tangtang is the best."

Jiang Muyu waited for a while, and only after her husband signaled that Nanxing could rest, did he invite her over to eat cake together.

Tangtang gave the biggest piece to Nanxing and said, "Sister Nanxing, you should eat more."

"Thank you, Tangtang." Nanxing's eyes softened a little and he raised his hand to rub Tangtang's little head.

Jiang Muyu was very pleased to see the good relationship between the two. She thought that maybe with Nanxing's protection, Tangtang could have escaped the assassination.

After a busy day, Jiang Muyu took a quick shower after dinner and prepared for bed.

Having not seen Liang Qingchen for the entire day, she asked Yun Xuan, "Why hasn't your prince come back yet?"

Yun Xuan said: "Maybe he is busy with work. The prince has accumulated too many things while recuperating."

Jiang Muyu yawned lazily and said, "Then I won't wait for him today. I'll put the cake in the lunch box and let him taste it when he comes back."

"Okay." Yun Xuan went to pour a cup of warm light blue water and said, "This is the soothing tea I prepared. Your Majesty, drink some before going to bed to help you sleep."

Jiang Muyu took it and said with a smile: "Our Yun Xuan is very considerate."

Yun Xuan lowered her eyes, "This is what I should do."

Jiang Muyu drank a cup of tea, then went into the inner room, climbed onto the bed and went to sleep.

It was almost midnight when Liang Qingchen returned to the palace.

He knew that Jiang Muyu had gone to bed early at this time, so he walked towards the academy.

As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Yun Xuan standing under the corridor waiting with a lunch box.

He strode over and asked, "Is there something going on over there?"

Yun Xuan picked up the food box and said, "The Queen has spent the whole afternoon making cakes today. I want you to have a taste."

He pursed his lips and nodded, then opened the door and walked into the house. Xu Lang immediately followed him in and lit the oil lamps and candles in the room.

"Come in."

After hearing the instructions, Yun Xuan stepped over the threshold and walked in, and saw Liang Qingchen already sitting behind the desk.

She took the cake out of the food box, placed it in front of him, and said, "The Queen said this is for the princess' birthday tomorrow."

Liang Qingchen looked at the triangular yellow cake and thought it looked a bit like osmanthus cake, but it looked softer and more delicate than osmanthus cake.

He scooped a piece with a small spoon and put it into his mouth. He chewed it and the taste was the same as the appearance. A smile appeared on the corner of his lips unconsciously, "She really can do everything."

Yun Xuan raised his eyes and looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and was about to say something.

"Just say whatever you want to say." Liang Qingchen said without raising his eyes.

Yun Xuan sighed, "Master, you clearly said that this was just a casual affair, and having children was just to keep the royal bloodline going, but now... I am increasingly unable to understand you."

Liang Qingchen's eyes gradually turned cold, and he seemed to shoot out ice blades as he stared at her. "Yun Xuan, you have been by my side for so many years, you should know clearly what to say and what not to say."

Yun Xuan's heart sank, and he immediately knelt down, lowering his eyebrows and said, "I spoke too much."

"Don't do it again, or I will consider transferring you out of the palace."

"yes."

Liang Qingchen then retracted his gaze and said calmly, "Go down."

"I'll take my leave." Yun Xuan picked up the lunch box and left the study.

Coming out of the academy, Yun Xuan walked towards Qingyu Courtyard.

She suddenly recalled the days when she followed her master. Although she was forced to read medical books every day and recognize all kinds of strange, numerous and complicated herbs, those days in the clinic were the most carefree in her life.

She originally thought that this would be the end of her life. She had learned a great set of medical skills, occasionally went up the mountain with her master to collect herbs, and then went out to travel with her fellow apprentices to save people.

Maybe in the future I can have the same great reputation as my master and become the number one female doctor in Kyushu.

But things don’t always go as planned…

People only know the miraculous doctor Wang Hebai, but they don’t know that she is the only living disciple of her master.

If she hadn't saved the prince last time, she wouldn't have exposed her identity and been punished by the prince.

She looked up at the sky shrouded in clouds. It was dark and not a single star could be seen. Even the moon had hidden itself and didn't want to be seen.

She seemed to have trouble remembering what her master and fellow disciples looked like. Those days seemed like a past life, and she knew she could never go back.

As long as her master's cause can be accomplished and she can get her revenge, she will have done her best to repay her master and fellow disciples who died in vain.
