Yunli pursed her lips, holding a bowl of plum juice, "You can only drink half a bowl, no more."
Yun Qingluo felt a slight chill and was incredibly excited.
"Waaaaah, Yunli, I knew you were the one who cared about me the most. Yunli, where did you get this?" Yun Qingluo took a small sip from the bowl.
The cool sensation traveled down my throat and into my stomach—it felt so good.
Oh, this feels so good.
Yun Tao feigned anger, "Your Highness, what are you saying? Aren't we good people?"
Yun Qingluo casually pinched Yun Tao's cheek, "Yun Tao has grown up and even learned to compete for favor."
Yun Tao was embarrassed and annoyed, "Your Highness..."
Yunli replied, "Ice here is not easy to store. We dug a deep cellar in the backyard and put some ice in it. If the Valley Master wants something cool in the future, he can have it made there."
Yun Qingluo stood up excitedly, startling Yun Li. Yun Li glared at Yun Qingluo, but Yun Qingluo ignored her and excitedly grabbed Yun Li's hand, saying, "Come on, take me to see it! Hurry, I want to feel the coolness."
Looking at Yun Qingluo's heavily pregnant belly, Yun Li said calmly, "You must be dreaming."
Yun Qingluo turned her head and stared intently at Yun Li.
Yunli looked away. "It's very deep down there, all steps, it's not easy to walk. Yunxin, go dig up two pieces of ice and put them in the room so the Valley Master can take his afternoon nap."
Upon hearing Yun Li's explanation, Yun Qingluo could only reluctantly give up.
It's really difficult for me to back down now, so it's best not to take the risk.
"Take a few more pieces, we'll make shaved ice." Yun Qingluo called out to Yun Xin, who had already walked out.
Yun Qingluo pulled Yun Tao and Yun Li to the kitchen.
Ask Yuntao to cook a pot of mung bean porridge, and ask Yunxin to cut some fruit.
Following her modern methods, Yun Qingluo made a bowl of mung bean shaved ice and a bowl of chilled fruit.
Of course, Yun Qingluo just stood aside and talked, while Yun Li, Yun Tao, and the returned Yun Xin did the work.
No one knows what Mo Beichen said to the fearless Yun Li, but Yun Li wouldn't let her do any work and was terribly strict with her.
After they finished, Yunli helped Yunqingluo, while Yuntao and Yunxin carried the plates, and the four of them walked back.
Yun Qingluo lay in the now-cooled-down room with her eyes half-closed and had a good, comfortable sleep.
The next day, the weather outside wasn't hot, and Yun Qingluo felt the urge to go fishing again.
Yun Qingluo and three others sat in the pavilion fishing.
Oh, to be precise, Yun Qingluo was lying on a deck chair in the pavilion, watching the three people fishing.
"Yunli, has there been any news from the capital?" Yun Qingluo suddenly asked.
She suddenly remembered that there hadn't been any news from the capital for a long time.
Yunli answered irrelevantly, "Everything is fine at the General's Mansion, and everything is normal at the Prince's Mansion as well."
Yun Qingluo's face darkened. "Yun Li, your ability to cover up your misdeeds has improved again. Tell me, what happened in the capital?"
Yunli was startled. Had she been exposed?
Yun Tao and Yun Xin exchanged a glance, then looked away helplessly.
Yunli still can't learn to lie. Sigh, but apart from yielding to the old valley master and Yun Qingluo, she doesn't listen to anyone else.
Yun Li remained silent for a while, and Yun Qingluo did not urge her, quietly closing her eyes and waiting.
Yunli finally spoke up.
"Actually, An Jiu was sent by the Prince to deal with the assassins who had been chasing you all the way," Yun Li whispered.
Yun Qingluo suddenly opened her eyes, a look of shock flashing across them.
Why haven't she heard any news from her?
Yun Qingluo looked at Yun Li with suspicion. Yun Li lowered her head and said, "It was the prince who instructed me not to tell you, for fear that you would worry. The prince said that such troublesome things should not be told to you."
Yun Qingluo's voice turned cold, "He's being reckless, and you're all following suit. Now that he's lost three cities, he's already faced a lot of criticism. To then execute the emperor's appointed deputy general without reporting it to the authorities will surely anger the court. His path has been difficult enough; how can you..."
Yun Qingluo took a deep breath, and Yun Tao immediately brought her a glass of water. "Your Highness, please don't be angry. Be careful not to upset yourself. The Prince has his reasons for doing this. Please don't worry."
Yun Xin came over and helped Yun Qingluo catch her breath. She then said to Yun Li, "At a time like this, why are you still hiding this from the Princess? Yun Li, you should explain yourself."
With a complex expression, Yun Li explained Mo Beichen's plan to avenge Yun Qingluo. Yun Qingluo listened in silence.
Ah Chen, how dare you openly oppose the imperial court?
They didn't even spare the other three countries. Isn't that a provocation?
Yun Qingluo asked curiously, "Did An Jiu take his guards to do it?"
Yun Li looked at Yun Qingluo with a puzzled expression. Didn't the prince tell her that the First Pavilion was founded by the prince himself?
Yunli thought about it for a moment, but still didn't bring it up. Perhaps the prince had his own plans.
Yunli nodded, "Yes." The people on the First Floor can also be considered secret guards, right?
Yun Qingluo continued to ask, "The ministers didn't react?"
Yunli said, "The court was in an uproar. There were as many memorials impeaching the prince as snowflakes. Everyone said that the prince disregarded imperial power, ignored the ministers, and had no respect for the emperor. Some even said that the prince wanted to usurp the throne. The capital was in an uproar. The emperor couldn't stand it and suspended court for three days."
Yun Qinglu tilted her head, her eyes filled with doubt, "Three days of suspension of court? Why?"
The emperor was the kind of person who wanted Mo Beichen dead. He would be overjoyed to hear the ministers impeach Mo Beichen. How could he possibly hold court over this matter?
Yun Li gave Yun Qingluo a deep look. Is it true that pregnancy makes you stupid for three years?
"The Emperor must have received news from the border that, in addition to the Tianlang Kingdom, which is directly fighting against the Tianmo Kingdom, the Beiyue Kingdom and the Dongwu Kingdom are also involved in this matter."
At this time, foreign enemies have invaded, and the court has no capable people. Right now, all they know is that even the Prince couldn't cure this illness, but Your Highness saved him."
"The court is in dire need of capable people right now. The emperor will surely rely on the regent, which is why he dares not make any moves at this time."
Yun Li still calls Yun Qingluo "Princess". This is because Yun Tao and Yun Xin had specifically told Yun Li this before.
The position of the Valley Master of Divine Healer Valley cannot be revealed for the time being, so Yunli will have to reluctantly call her Princess Consort, just like the others.
Yun Qingluo nodded. Yun Li's analysis was correct. That was indeed the case.
"Have you found out any other information?" Yun Qingluo took a sip of water and continued.
"By the way, Yunli, Anjiu should be back by now."
Yunli took a few steps forward, stopped, and said, "I should say I'll be back soon. By the way, Your Highness, there's one more thing I need your decision on. The weather is hot these days, and the soldiers' wounds are prone to infection. We may need some medicine on the battlefield. I'll send a message to have someone prepare it at the Valley of Divine Physicians."
Yun Qingluo nodded, took a bite of the mung bean shaved ice, and comfortably squinted her eyes.
She chuckled and said, "Yunli is becoming more and more capable. She makes things so easy for us."
