Chapter 361 She didn’t drink the Chinese medicine at all!
After returning home, Qiao Wanyan saw her father and mother coming towards her. She comforted them a little and sent them back.
Qiao Wanyan didn't say much about being punished to kneel in the palace. Firstly, she didn't want to make her parents worry, and secondly, she felt relieved that she could handle the matter herself.
She only said that the Queen Mother intended to make her the Crown Princess and summoned her into the palace to teach her the rules.
In Yongning Pavilion, Ziyuan ordered people to prepare hot water for the young lady to bathe.
"Ziyuan, I remember that when Zhou hadn't given birth yet, it was my grandmother who arranged for someone to settle her outside. Later, Zhou sent the child to the mansion, and my father accepted the child and settled Zhou in a farm outside the city. The midwife was arranged by my grandmother at that time. Is the midwife still in the mansion now?"
Zi Yuan thought about it carefully, "I seem to have heard it before when I was drinking with the old people in the mansion. The midwife later served the eldest daughter, and then returned to her hometown to retire when she was old. But the midwife's daughter is still working in the mansion, I remember..."
She frowned and thought for a long time, "Yes! Call her Cui'er!"
Cui'er was a lazy girl. She had previously privately asked me to come to Yongning Pavilion to serve her, but I refused.
She had to ask where he was working in the mansion now.
Qiao Wanyan's eyes moved slightly, "I'm going to Penglai Tower in a while, you don't have to follow me, I have something for you to do."
She hooked her finger, and Ziyuan walked closer and put her ear close.
In the capital, everyone knows that the Tenth Princess, a relative of the emperor, has opened a very unusual restaurant called Penglai Tower.
The place is crowded with guests and it is very lively.
Qiao Wanyan sat in the carriage and watched the long queue forming in front of the main entrance of Penglai Tower and closed the windows. The carriage made a circle and stopped at the back door.
When He Baozhu learned the news, he had someone take him directly to Room No. 1 on the top floor, put the secret book in his hand away and left the room.
Wei Mo locked the door and followed quickly.
"Wanyan, how come you have time to come here today? I haven't seen you for a while!"
Qiao Wanyan smiled and said, "The Queen summoned me last night and asked me to stay overnight in the palace."
"The Queen?"
Qiao Wanyan nodded: "I was disrespectful to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the Queen knows about it. The Queen loves her son as much as her life, so naturally there will be some tempering."
He Baozhu lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea. "A few days ago, the Queen's nephew, Young Master Qian, came to Penglai Tower with his friends. They were drunk and talked without restraint."
Qiao Wanyan said calmly, "The Qian family is also a royal family. Young Master Qian is the only legitimate son of the Qian family. He is outspoken because he has the Queen's blessing."
He Baozhu smiled and said, "That's right. If it weren't for the title of the Empress, how could Mr. Qian dare to do something that violates the law, such as lending money at high interest rates?"
"The Great You Law states that the interest on loans cannot exceed 100% of the principal. If you lend money at high interest, you will be punished with a minimum of 100 strokes of the cane depending on the interest." Qiao Wanyan said, "The princess is well-informed."
He Baozhu felt a great sense of accomplishment. "This Penglai Tower was built in such a short time. Although I made a lot of money and my father also gave me some rewards, without your support, I really couldn't make ends meet in the early stage. If it can't be opened, where did you get the news?"
There are many spies in Penglai Tower. Her original body has no confidants. She wants to keep a group of spies in Penglai Tower to gather information. It is totally unreliable and she dare not do so because she is worried.
If the Qiao family had not arranged a group of people and provided a large amount of financial support, she would not have been able to find out any information.
On the surface, this restaurant was opened by her, but in fact, she opened it together with Wan Yan.
Although she came here through time travel, it can be seen that Wan Yan is very charming and smart, except that she sometimes has a bad temper.
But who doesn’t have a temper when alive?
Such a beauty, with outstanding charm, is a noble lady brought up in an aristocratic family. She is definitely the standard heroine in novels!
Generally speaking, the heroine either has a friend with unparalleled medical skills, or a friend who is extremely mysterious and has a powerful intelligence network.
Now Wanyan has Yun Heng by her side, and since his medical skills are not good enough and he has the same character as the heroine, he can only be the boss of the mysterious intelligence organization beside the heroine!
When life is too smooth, people always want to find some excitement.
Once you get a taste of power, you don’t want to let it go and you crave for more.
People change.
Just like before I just wanted to be close to Wanyan, but now I want to be the most important person around Wanyan.
The news that Queen Qian's nephew was lending money at high interest rates reached the ears of the Situ family. The Situ family had a daughter who was now the emperor's most favored concubine in the palace.
After two or three days, Qiao Wanyan heard in Yongning Pavilion that the Situ family had sued the Qian family's son in the court for lending money at high interest and beating someone to death because the person could not pay back the money.
The evidence was conclusive, and the son of the Qian family was sentenced to 200 strokes of the cane, and his legs were directly crippled.
The Queen was neglected by the Emperor, and the power to manage the six palaces fell into the hands of Concubine Shu.
There was another bloody storm in the harem.
Zi Yuan held the plate and ate the candied fruit. "I heard that the Qian family is making a big fuss. The Queen's headache has recurred. Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is troubled by the Qian family."
Qiao Wanyan smiled and said, "It's a dog-eat-dog situation, it's so lively."
Outside the door, Yun Heng walked in with a food box.
Qiao Wanyan smiled and asked, "Are you done?"
Yun Heng nodded calmly. Zi Yuan stepped forward to take the food box. He then asked, "The love poison has been removed. Did you go to see him because you still have him in your heart or because you want to visit him out of gratitude?"
Yun Heng gave He Yanli the antidote. After checking Ping An's pulse these days, he naturally knew that the love poison had been cured.
He knew it, but he never told He Zhiyu a word.
Firstly, Wan Yan told him not to say it, and secondly, he had no intention of saying it.
What does it have to do with me whether the prince is in a hurry or not?
Just don't be in a hurry.
Qiao Wanyan didn't answer, "Is there any difference?"
Yun Heng suddenly fell silent.
There is a difference, of course.
If I still have him in my heart, I won't regret what I have done.
If he went to visit out of gratitude, then he would feel a little guilty for deceiving King Jing into giving him the two bowls of blood.
"Nothing, go ahead."
Qiao Wanyan felt that something was wrong with him, but she was not interested in knowing.
Yun Heng stood at the door, staring at her departing back, feeling a little upset.
"Tsk tsk tsk, taking the medicinal food you made to look at other men, could it be that Master Yun is the most wronged person in the world?"
Yun Heng retracted his gaze and said in a cold tone, "Brother Yanli."
Lu Jinye’s body stiffened.
Yun Heng turned and left.
