Lu Wanying was really surprised.
"What are you talking about, Cao Danqing is not dead?"
Puyang family opened her eyes wide and nodded solemnly: "Yes, she is not dead, and neither is Shaochun. They also gave me gifts A letter came, but for some reason, it was sent from the Kingdom of Zhou."
"Why did she go to the Kingdom of Zhou?"
Lu Wanying stared. The person in front of me is becoming more and more confused.
On that day, the person who came to report said that Zhou Zhaoyuan was killed by a knife, while Cao Danqing and Zhou Shaochun both disappeared, and their whereabouts are unknown.
A harem woman and a three-foot-tall boy, missing in the wilderness, what good can be gained, and in the snow and ice, there is no difference between them and dead.
But now, not only did he not die, he actually went to the Kingdom of Zhou.
It’s incredible!
Lu Wanying's eyebrows knitted together. She felt vaguely that something was wrong. When she wanted to ask more questions, she didn't expect anyone from the palace to step in. She just said that the queen was here.
The conversation was forced to stop, and Lu Wanying felt a little bored, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Seeing this, the Puyang family resigned.
Not wanting to be seen, Ruizhu asked someone to take Puyang family away from the side door.
Lu Wanying went to the entrance of the palace to greet Yuan Yun'e. He raised his chin slightly, and someone from the palace cleared away the tea foam on the table.
As soon as Lu Wanying stood up, Yuan Yun'e had already walked to the door.
Lu Wanying's expression was as usual, with a small smile: "How come the queen has time to come here?"
Everyone in the palace knew that due to the continuous wars, the queen would invite monks to the palace every once in a while to chant. After praying, I stayed in the Lecture Hall day and night for the past two days.
But Lu Wanying is bothered by this the most.
Yuan Yun'e has long been accustomed to Lu Wanying's rudeness.
She walked and looked around, always smiling slightly on her face.
"It's been a while since Hong'er came to Hanguang Palace. I've always wanted to take the time to come and have a look. No, the Lord mentioned it last night. I'm afraid that Hong'er will give up and not accept Concubine Shu's discipline."
Lu Wanying was stunned and smiled: "Hong'er and I are very attached to each other, but the Lord and the Queen are really worrying too much."
Yuan Yun'e sneered in her heart, killing Wei Shi first, and then grabbing her Third Prince, what's her plan? She really doesn't know if she's really looking at herself?
Yuan Yun'e smiled and nodded: "I think so."
After the two sat down, Gao Zihong was carried by the palace servants. He didn't cry as much as before, just lying down. He seemed to be motionless in the palace's arms, with only a pair of wet red eyes blinking, looking aggrieved and pitiful.
Yuan Yun'e frowned and couldn't help but wonder: "What's going on?"
The palace man lowered his head and replied softly: "The cheese sent by the Secretary of Food did not fit the taste, and the third prince cried for a while. However, Concubine Shu has asked them to cook it again, and it should be delivered soon."
Lu Wanying frowned: "It's been so long, and it's not getting better yet? How can I make the third prince hungry? Are you waiting with your stomach full? "
Unexpectedly, as soon as the words were spoken, a waiter came in with a plate of Yao.
Yuan Yun'e looked over and saw four small bowls placed on the small Yao plate. They all looked like cheese, with only slightly different appearances.
The wheat porridge with almond juice smells very mellow.
For no reason, she felt nauseated and covered her nose without any trace.
Lu Wanying didn't notice it. He looked at the poor child and said softly: "Hong'er, do you want my mother to feed you?"
The child curled his lips and said nothing. There was a sound, and he just shrank into the palace man's arms.
Ruizhu took the bowl, walked to Gao Zihong and knelt down, smiled at Lu Wan and said: "You feed me personally on weekdays, but today the Queen is not here easily, so you can accompany her with peace of mind. Let’s talk and let the slaves feed the Third Prince.”
Yuan Yun'e put down her hand and glanced at Lu Wanying with a smile: "Concubine Shu is so attentive."
Lu Wanying pursed her lips: "You have to be more careful when taking care of Hong'er."
The little guy had been hungry for a long time, cried for a long time, and was already exhausted. Now when he suddenly saw the cheese, he started eating one bite after another without being coaxed.
Lu Wanying stretched out her hand, patted Gao Zihong's back gently, and told him to eat slowly. He caught a glimpse of the remaining three bowls from the corner of his eye. Before he could speak, someone ran in in panic and walked hastily. A gift.
“Queen, it’s not good, the master fell off his horse and was injured!”
"What?" Yuan Yun'e was shocked and stood up immediately. Everyone in the palace changed their expressions and all bowed their heads and knelt down. Only Gao Zihong didn't know why and still ate the cheese from the bowl.
Yuan Yun'e asked urgently: "Where is the Lord? How serious is the injury?"
The visitor trembled: "Master, the Lord is now in the Tai Chi Hall, the rest "Yes, I don't know."
Yuan Yun'e didn't ask any more questions, glanced at Lu Wanying who was also stunned, and hurried to the outer hall.
Lu Wan woke up.
She was not as worried as Yuan Yun'e, nor was she in a hurry to go to Tai Chi Hall. Instead, she glanced at Gao Zihong with a complicated expression, who was still concentrating on eating cheese, and then slowly looked at Ruizhu who was kneeling beside him.
Looking at each other, Ruizhu nodded heavily.
Lu Wan's eyebrows relaxed.
If Gao Hao is really good, then Gao Zihong is her way out.
Thinking about it this way, I can't help but feel happy.
Fortunately, we have prepared for a rainy day.
Lu Wanying will go out with others if he doesn't hesitate.
“Empress.”
Ruizhu called her to stop.
Although there were other people present, Ruizhu took a few steps forward and whispered into Lu Wan's ear.
Lu Wanying frowned, his eyes became darker and darker, and the smile on his lips became deeper and deeper.
After saying a few simple words, Ruizhu lowered his head and stepped aside.
Lu Wanying raised her eyes and looked at the bowls of cheese on the table in the distance, raised her lips and smiled.

When there is no wind, the sun falls on my body, which makes me feel a little warm.
In a small courtyard surrounded by dense wintersweet trees, there is a table with many bottles and cans piled on it. There were two people sitting on each side, looking at each other busy with something.
Gu Ya took a look into the jade mortar. The spice particles were even and fine.
"Queen Mother, do you see enough of this?"
Liang Huan stretched out his head to take a look and said: "That's enough. After these bottles are packed, let's bury them under the wintersweet tree. You can use it every day.”
She fiddled with the small bottle in her hand and smiled enigmatically: "It can last a few days."
Gu Ya looked at the bright smiling face, but it was scary no matter how she looked.
Before making the incense, the Empress Dowager gave many warnings: after the incense is made, it must be kept properly and must not be touched casually.
Gu Ya couldn't help but feel frightened when she looked at these dozen or so small bottles.
Liang Huan personally sealed the mouth of the bottle with wax.
After the two of them buried the bottle, the fence door was pushed open.
Liang Huan cleaned her hands, took off her heavy outer robe, and sat by the small stove. She raised her head and looked towards the door. From time to time, she could still see Gu Ya coming and going.
Liang Han lowered his eyes and tore open the letter.
Looked at it carefully for a long time.
The battlefield on the frontline is really out of control, and everyone has their own thoughts.
Liang Huan closed the letter and sighed silently, looking slightly lost in thought while looking at the flames burning in the small stove.
Jin Ye must not be in chaos. Once Jin Ye is in chaos, it is hard to say that the kings will not take the opportunity to rebel and become their own kings. By then, they will only be able to use part of the imperial army in the palace. How can they do that? To compete with many soldiers?
By then, Qi will be in chaos, there will be more casualties, and the situation will definitely become uncontrollable...
Liang Huan pondered for a moment, threw the letter into the small stove, stood up and walked to the window , but accidentally caught a glimpse of the jade flute in the corner.
Actually, she is not good at playing the flute.
Liang Huan paused and walked towards the wall where the jade flutes were placed. (End of this chapter)
