Bei Lingyao returned to Fengyi Palace amid the envious and jealous gazes of the concubines.
The Empress Dowager personally escorted her to the gate of the Cining Palace and gave her a lot of rewards from the warehouse.
After she left, there was a crackling sound in the Cining Palace, and the empress dowager smashed the teacup again.
"I will bear it for now."
Bei Lingyao was in a good mood. She liked the way others disliked her but couldn't get rid of her.
Especially the Queen Mother, who clearly doesn't like her but still has to pretend to be so nice to her. It's really hard for her.
On this side, after receiving the letter from her daughter, Concubine Yu, the Prime Minister's wife handed in a sign to enter the palace to see the Empress Dowager.
After the two best friends were happy, the Prime Minister's wife began to ask the Queen Mother about the medicine.
The Empress Dowager's face darkened. The Prime Minister's wife was startled, thinking she had displeased the Empress Dowager. Then she waved her hand and said, "The medicine is gone. The last dose was used by Concubine Jiang, but it benefited the Bei family. If I had known this earlier, I would have regretted it so much."
The Queen Mother did not say that the last half bottle of tiger and wolf medicine had fallen into the hands of Emperor Yongxi.
She didn't want to mention this matter. Now, whenever the empress dowager thought about Emperor Yongxi searching her Cining Palace, she would get angry.
The Prime Minister's wife was very disappointed. If she had known that the medicine could help her conceive, she should have carefully considered using it on her daughter.
What a pity.
"I saved Bei's pregnancy. I didn't like her, but she was carrying the Emperor's first son, and I couldn't let anything happen to her."
The Queen Mother's words were also a warning to the Prime Minister's wife.
As a close friend of many years, she knew the Prime Minister's wife's methods best. If she hadn't had the Prime Minister's wife's advice and calculations, she might not have had the last laugh.
Therefore, the Empress Dowager trusted the Prime Minister's wife, but after Concubine Yu entered the harem, the Empress Dowager became more wary of the Prime Minister's wife.
She was afraid that the Prime Minister's wife would plot against her and Concubine Jiang, so that Concubine Yu could be crowned as the queen.
But in the past few years, they have maintained a balance and restrained each other and lived in peace.
However, the empress dowager did not feel that she owed the prime minister's wife anything. After she seduced the late emperor into entering the palace and giving birth to a child, she had been whispering in the late emperor's ear and speaking for the prime minister and his wife.
Otherwise, the late emperor would not have valued Prime Minister Yu.
Now that Concubine Jiang is gone, the Queen Mother has let down her guard again and opened up to the Prime Minister's wife.
"Empress Dowager, can Bei's child be registered under the name of the Imperial Concubine? Of course, the little prince will naturally be raised by the Empress Dowager."
"This matter depends on the emperor. I can't guarantee it. You can ask Concubine Yu, what did you do to offend the emperor?
When they were young, they were childhood sweethearts, and even I had high hopes for them. But later on, they grew apart. Even during the selection process, if I hadn't reserved a spot for Concubine Yu first, the Emperor would have dropped her spot."
The Prime Minister's wife's expression froze. She and her daughter had both been puzzled by this matter. "I don't know either."
"If this matter is not clarified, the emperor will never favor Concubine Yu in his life."
"Thank you, Her Majesty the Queen Mother, for reminding me. I will ask Concubine Yu to clarify this matter."
Before leaving, the Prime Minister's wife asked the Queen Mother, "Your Majesty, where can I get the medicine?"
Although it is a dangerous medicine, it is a good medicine if it can help people get pregnant.
"well"
The Queen Mother sighed, "In fact, you also know that it was Doctor Min. The late Emperor misunderstood me and him, so he ordered him to be executed.
He was wronged too. It was obviously you he loved, and he hadn't let you go for all these years. He helped me because of you. I was the one who harmed him, but I didn't know the poison he gave me could conceive a child."
Fortunately, it was not given to Concubine Li. The Queen Mother originally wanted to frame Concubine Li for committing adultery with a guard in order to get rid of her.
In the end it was not used.
The Prime Minister's wife looked somewhat resentful, "I don't know."
The Prime Minister's wife is also the daughter of a wealthy family, so how could she look down on a lowly imperial physician?
The Prime Minister's wife is actually interested in entering the palace, so she can participate in the selection with the Queen Mother.
But they were all dismissed by Empress Yuan.
The Prime Minister's wife was very dissatisfied.
But it's better not to enter the palace. As a daughter of a wealthy family, she doesn't want to enter the harem and be a slave to others.
It was just because of the knot in her heart about abandoning the throne that the Empress Dowager later hooked up with the late Emperor. She was very supportive and even offered advice and suggestions to the Empress Dowager.
As for Doctor Min, he was recommended to the Empress Dowager by the Prime Minister's wife.
Doctor Min was sentenced to death by the late emperor, and the Prime Minister's wife breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that she knew that the poisonous medicine in the Queen Mother's hand was given by Imperial Physician Min, the Prime Minister's wife was filled with resentment.
Since he likes her but doesn't give her something good, such a person deserves death.
The Prime Minister's wife left the Cining Palace and went to Concubine Yu's palace.
[The Empress Dowager, the Prime Minister's wife, and Concubine Yu all thought that the poison was a fertility drug. How ridiculous.]
Bei Lingyao was speechless.
The original owner was able to get pregnant because there was nothing wrong with her body.
She was able to get pregnant because of the fertility pill, and it had nothing to do with the tiger and wolf drugs.
However, Emperor Yongxi also had doubts and asked the imperial physician to study it.
Of course the results came out.
As soon as Emperor Yongxi finished his morning court session, the imperial physician came over.
Emperor Yongxi was disappointed when he learned that it was not a fertility drug.
Although tiger and wolf medicine is not a good thing, if it can conceive a child, it is still very attractive to childless people.
Emperor Yongxi had already thought it through. After the imperial doctors had figured it out, he would make more so that his descendants who were childless could use it.
"ruined"
Since it is either a fertility drug or a drug that harms the body, what is the point of keeping it?
Emperor Yongxi came to Fengyi Palace and saw Bei Lingyao writing. Ping Ping'an also sat beside her and practiced calligraphy.
The mother and her two children were quiet and no one disturbed anyone else.
Emperor Yongxi first walked in front of Ping'an and looked at their handwriting, then held their hands and corrected them.
Ping Ping'an opened his mouth to call him, but Emperor Yongxi waved his hand, touched their heads, and walked towards Bei Lingyao.
"What is Yao'er writing?"
"Your Majesty, I have seen you."
Bei Lingyao put down her pen and tried to stand up to greet him, but was held down. "Husband and wife are one, Yao'er, there's no need to be so polite in private."
Bei Lingyao smiled slightly and said, "You are the emperor, so it's up to you."
"Very silly and naive?"
Emperor Yongxi was puzzled.
"Yes, very silly and naive."
Bei Lingyao nodded slightly. She was planning to write a novel.
Emperor Yongxi's eyes widened. "Is it about the Liu sisters?"
"Yes, I would like to write a storybook based on these sisters."
"Very good, Yao'er and I are in tune with each other. I had the same idea at the beginning, but I was busy with too many things and forgot about it."
"Your Majesty is very busy, so I am the one who should handle this matter. Once I finish writing, I will show it to Your Majesty."
As someone with a world memory, she is the best person to restore the facts.
"Have you written so much already?"
Emperor Yongxi was surprised. He picked it up and was fascinated by it.
"Yao'er's writing is truly beautiful, full of charm and captivating."
Although the book is written in plain and easy-to-understand vernacular, the writing is good and the story is clearly organized, making people addicted to it at first sight.
