Xiaoyu took a look and saw that the radish in Concubine Xian's hand was of strange shape and was painted with paint.
"You take your time, I'm going to bed."
"Okay, go back. I wish you a sweet dream."
Who can have a good dream if you hear a horrible laugh before going to bed?
Xiaoyu wrapped her clothes tightly and looked around as she walked back. Fortunately, the scary laughter did not sound, and Xiaoyu finally felt relieved.
"Hehe, let's go scare the little emperor."
Gu Yingxia bypassed the guards and ran to the imperial study. The two ginseng dolls fell to the ground and turned into children running. Zhu Bifeng shouted, "Who are you sneaking around? Come out quickly."
"Ha ha ha ha."
The laughter was getting louder and louder. Zhu Bifeng rushed out with a sword in his hand. The more timid the enemy was, the stronger the ginseng doll became. The braver the enemy was, the more afraid the ginseng doll became.
"I have never done anything wrong, I am not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, come out."
The ginseng doll shivered and turned back into its medicinal form. Zhu Bifeng looked around and only saw two white radishes lying on the ground. He picked them up and took a closer look.
Concubine Xian rushed out and said, "Your Majesty, I am drying radishes."
"Moonlight radish?"
"Hey, I have something to do and I'm leaving first."
Zhu Bifeng shook his head and thought to himself that the virtuous Concubine should learn more from the Empress Dowager Hengle, who was running around all the time at her age and was not steady and dignified.
The two ginseng dolls stayed with Concubine Xian forever. The three of them had a lot of fun playing with each other. They went out to scare people every day, and everyone in the harem was in danger.
Gu Yinwei set up a bamboo pole with a net bag hanging on it, and two dolls were in the net bag.
Gu Yingxia twisted her fingers, looking like she had done something wrong.
Gu Yingxia pestered Gu Yinwei and begged, "Third sister, please stop beating me. I won't let them mess around anymore."
"No nonsense? The Huanyan flower that Concubine Zhen of Changning Palace carefully cared for was eaten by a dog. Concubine Zhen is crying her heart out. Go comfort her yourself."
Gu Yingxia felt guilty. She didn't pay attention at that moment and the ginseng doll caused a big disaster.
"From now on, the two of you must stay in the herb garden and not go anywhere. If you don't obey, hmph..."
Gu Yinwei took out a pair of shiny scissors with pure energy wrapped around them. The ginseng dolls were not afraid of ordinary objects, but were afraid of magical objects. The two little dolls hugged each other with frightened expressions.
At the same time, a roar erupted from Lingyin Mountain: "Who the hell stole my ginseng doll?"
The birds in the forest spread their wings and flew high, while the squirrels on the ground covered their ears and flew away.
Wei Junzhai ran up and down the mountain dozens of times but still couldn't find the ginseng doll, and the Polygonatum under the tree was also gone.
The medicinal herbs had been dug out completely, and not even a trace of them could be found. Wei Junzhai lay back, feeling completely hopeless about life.
His sight fell on a blade of grass. A drop of dew hung on the tip of the grass, bending the grass' waist. With a sound of dripping, the drop fell. Wei Junzhai felt a cold touch on his arm, and he shuddered all over and thought of a possibility.
There are restrictions set up by him in Lingyin Mountain, which ordinary people cannot see through. Only those with higher cultivation than him can see through his illusions.
In the world of the book, mortal bones are everywhere, but there is only one person who cultivates immortal bones and steps into the realm of semi-immortality.
Everyone in the palace is extremely evil. He doesn't want to go back to the palace. Who knows whether the old witch, the Queen Mother, is dead or not? If she is not dead, he will definitely be beaten again if she finds out.
It is impossible to return to the palace, so I have to find a deep mountain forest and continue refining medicine.
Wei Junzhai ran through the mountains and forests, his figure hidden among the layers of grass and trees.
The herbs in the medicine garden grew stronger in the wind, and wherever the spring breeze passed, it was dark green. Gu Yinwei, holding a pair of scissors, leaned over a camellia. New buds were sprouting on the trunk of the camellia, and new flowers were about to bloom. However, the person who accompanied her to see the camellia was not by her side.
Chuchu was worried that Gu Yinwei would miss him when she saw the things, so she said, "My queen, let's go look somewhere else."
Gu Yinwei quickly got rid of her sad mood and walked forward with Chuchu.
The two of them strolled around for a while and then returned to the Pepper Room. She mostly stayed in the Pepper Room in her free time and only returned to the Cining Palace at night.
The peach and plum trees in the backyard of the Jiaofang Palace began to bear fruit, and the grapes under the eaves also sprouted new buds.
While watering the trees, Almond complained, "The vines are twisting and turning, and the scissors are too blunt to cut through the dead branches."
"I have scissors on my dresser. You can use the new ones."
Almond took a pair of small scissors and cut the grape vines quickly with a few clicks, cutting off all the disease on the vines. The long-eared marten's eyes lit up with greed when he saw the green grape vines in a corridor.
Chuchu reached out and scratched its nose, "Little greedy mink, the grapes haven't even grown yet, and you come to guard them every day."
Not only the long-eared marten guards it every day, but the ginseng doll also guards it. A group of unknown birds stands on the palace wall in the backyard, and the birds are concentrating and stretching their necks to look.
Chuchu would take scissors and prune the vines every now and then. Every time she pruned the dead branches, the vines evolved.
Gu Yingxia has been suffering from insomnia recently. The imperial physician prescribed a tranquilizer for her, but she refused to drink it because it was too bitter.
She went to the Cining Palace to sleep, but tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. Gu Yinwei didn't like her and kicked her out of bed. She then went to the Ning Palace to sleep next to Concubine Zhen, but she couldn't fall asleep either.
Bian Tao moved a recliner and invited Concubine Xian to lie down and rest.
"I used to suffer from insomnia and nightmares, and sometimes I felt anxious and depressed. But every time I sit under the grapevines for a while, I feel refreshed."
Gu Yingxia listened to her mysterious words and lay down doubtfully.
The fresh fragrance of grapevines lingered in my nose, and the sounds of birds, footsteps, and voices around me gradually faded away.
It seemed as if she was the only body left in the world. She stretched her limbs, then curled up, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Ah Qing brought a thin blanket to cover her, Chuchu took the parrot cage and quietly walked away, the three of them tried hard to create a good sleeping environment for Gu Yingxia.
When Gu Yinwei returned from the Cining Palace after finishing her official business, she looked up and saw Gu Yingxia sleeping under the grape vines, with three maids sitting along the steps, talking in low voices.
The spring breeze is gentle, like a slow song.
Gu Yinwei was about to return to the Pepper Room to rest for a while when Fugui came to report, "Empress Dowager, Princess Zhou is here again."
"Go and have a look."
Fugui pursed his lips, indignantly saying, "You are so busy, Queen Mother. Princess Zhou makes a fuss every now and then. In my opinion, she deserves twenty lashes of the cane. She will absolutely be quiet."
"After all, Princess Zhou is Feng'er's biological mother. Even though Feng'er is now adopted by me, hitting Princess Zhou is the same as hitting Feng'er."
"I am just feeling aggrieved. Princess Zhou is so tactless."
"There are too many ignorant people in the world. There's no need to get upset about it."
As they were talking, the master and servant had already arrived at the Cining Palace. Princess Zhou was wearing a gold belt and silver, three gold bracelets on her left hand, two jade bracelets on her right hand, and a two-pound necklace around her neck. She was not tall, so she liked to wear her hair in a high bun, with flowers in her hair and a crown on her head. The early spring sunshine shone on her, and it was tiring to look at her for even a second.
Next to Princess Zhou stood a beautiful lady, tall and thin, looking simple and generous. She looked like the new emperor in her eyebrows. Gu Yinwei looked at Fugui, and Fugui said, "She is the new emperor's biological mother, Concubine Tang."
As soon as Gu Yinwei sat down, Princess Zhou shouted "Long live the Queen Mother" and bowed down to her.
