When Emperor Wen of the morning court proposed the order to refute his grace, the civil and military officials were stunned, some were happy and some were worried.

People who are worried naturally affect their interests, but most people still agree with the order to give in.

The imperial edict gave the implementation of the order to redeem the grace, and the people in the city cheered that Emperor Wen was a good emperor and was resourceful.

Chu Yunning stayed up for two days and didn't sleep. He went back to Qingluan Palace to take a nap early until Aunt Su came in the evening.

"The Empress Dowager has a bad appetite these two days. Chu Shanggong will go and have a look."

The empress dowager is old and has indigestion in the heat and often has no appetite. Chu Yunning didn't even want to get up and went to Cihe Palace immediately, heading straight to the kitchenette and lifting up her sleeves to make a few appetizers.

She pickled some pickled vegetables in the kitchen and made red wine and pears as desserts, so that Aunt Su could serve them first.

After a while, Aunt Su came back with an empty bowl: "It's better for Chu Shanggong to have a solution, and the Queen Mother's appetite has improved a lot."

Chu Yunning's biggest backer in the palace was the queen mother. No matter what the queen mother wanted to eat, she would find a way to make it.

The Queen Mother likes spicy food, and the imperial chef in the palace cannot make the taste that the Queen Mother likes. Chu Yunning simply braised a lot of rabbit heads, duck necks, and duck wings for the Queen Mother, all of which are spicy.

Emperor Mingwen was frowning when he saw the hot goods on the table. He was here to pay his respects, and he happened to have the Queen Mother for dinner. He didn't know if he didn't watch it, and he was shocked when he saw it.

"Where is the people of Chu Shang Palace?" Emperor Mingwen asked.

Aunt Su looked at the empress dowager in embarrassment, and the empress dowager immediately said, "Don't blame Ning'er, it's because Ai's mouth is not smelly and asked Ning'er to cook. Ai's family just tastes it occasionally. Eating more spicy food can remove dampness."

This is what Chu Yunning said, and eating spicy food is also beneficial.

"Ninger's medical skills are so good that she will never harm the Ai family." The Empress Dowager trusted Chu Yunning wholeheartedly, leaving Emperor Mingwen speechless.

After a while, Chu Yunning made a table full of dishes. Emperor Mingwen was in a good mood and didn't care. He didn't want to sweep away the Queen Mother's elegant mood. When he had time, he would tell Chu Yunning in private that it would be the same.

"What makes the emperor so happy?" The empress dowager could see the smile in Emperor Mingwen's eyebrows at a glance, and she couldn't stop it.

Emperor Mingwen smiled and briefly talked about the court. The Empress Dowager didn't ask much, and smiled: "As long as the emperor can solve the major problems and no longer worry, the Ai family will be happy for you. It just so happened that Ning'er made a table of good dishes today, Aunt Su, and went to get the fruit wine buried under the tree of Ai's family."

Emperor Mingwen frowned.

Soon Aunt Su brought two jars of wine. The wine jar was delicate and small, and poured it into the glass bowl with a beautiful color.

"Pour a cup for the emperor to taste it." The empress dowager ordered.

Aunt Su laughed and carefully poured a glass for Emperor Mingwen, which made Emperor Mingwen laugh: "It's just a jar of wine, and it deserves the caution of the mother."

"Your Majesty will know if you try it." The Empress Dowager couldn't wait to raise a glass of drink, pick up a duck neck, and smiled very comfortably with the cold fruit wine.

Seeing this, Emperor Mingwen couldn't help but taste it and said in confusion: "What kind of fruit wine is this? It tastes sweet and has endless aftertaste."

“This is a hundred fruit brew.”

As the name suggests, it is brewed with a hundred kinds of fruits. It took a few days to get a small jar. The Queen Mother is very precious on weekdays and she is reluctant to drink it.

"This is also brewed by Chu Shanggong?" Emperor Mingwen knew without guessing that it must be Chu Yunning. What skills does she have that she doesn't know?

The Queen Mother nodded and smiled with relief: "The Ai family has no hobbies, so she trims flowers and plants to pass the time.

The music, chess, calligraphy and painting have long been bored. Now that Ning'er has entered the palace, the Ai family feels that life is hopeful."

"It's good if the mother likes it." Emperor Mingwen smiled slightly.

The mother and son ate some tacitly. The empress dowager was very fond of appetite and was in good mood while drinking fruit wine. Emperor Mingwen glanced at the time: "Let Chu Shanggong accompany the empress dowager for dinner."

"Yes!" Eunuch Mo understood and soon went to invite Chu Yunning.

Chu Yunning took the last strawberry ice cream, which looked tempting when pink and tender. It was very difficult to make this ice cream, and it was still airing when served.

"What is this?" asked the Queen Mother.

“It’s ice cream.”

Chu Yunning made two bowls in total. After looking at Emperor Mingwen, he was extremely reluctant and offered one of them.

"Your Majesty, you should eat this bowl of ice cream as soon as possible. It will not taste good if it melts in a while." Chu Yunning stared at the ice cream, and she still wanted to eat it.

The queen mother held the bowl in her hand and dug a large spoon in her mouth. It melted in her mouth. It also had a strong milky strawberry flavor, which was sweet and not greasy. After one bowl, she became much cooler.

"Is there any?" The Queen Mother disappeared after a few spoons.

Emperor Mingwen on the side ate most of the time in great interest. This was the first time he had tasted such a strange food. Although the taste was good, Emperor Mingwen didn't like sweetness very much, so he only ate half of it.

"Empress Dowager, this ice cream is too troublesome to make, so I only made two servings. I will wait until tomorrow to get more ice powder."

Chu Yunning coaxed the empress dowager and warned her not to be greedy for the cold. The empress dowager then wiped her mouth with satisfaction and leaned against the chair: "Emperor, if Ning'er makes any mistakes in the future, for the sake of the Ai family, you should open the door."

Chu Yunning's eyelids twitched, and he looked at the Empress Dowager in surprise, and then at Emperor Mingwen.

"Don't worry, my mother, I will definitely be open to the Internet." Emperor Mingwen smiled brightly, and it was obvious that he was in a very good mood today.

The queen mother asked again: "How is the queen and the imperial concubine?"

"When I go back to the Queen Mother, the Queen is still the same as she is still recuperating for the time being. The Queen Mother was a little scared after falling into the water. She has almost recovered in the past few days." Chu Yunning replied.

"Since the imperial concubine is almost done, there is no need for the emperor to stay there every day. He should also accompany the newcomers in the harem and a few concubines who are pregnant with dragon sons. Never make any mistakes." The empress dowager told.

Concubine Xia had no children and had damaged her body. The Empress Dowager had never liked Concubine Xia before. She was injured now and did not show much worry. She just symbolically sent Aunt Su to send some tonics.

The first empress dowager was unhappy to let a frightened person occupy the emperor.

"Yes!" Emperor Mingwen nodded.

Chu Yunning also breathed a sigh of relief. She finally stopped staying up late to review the memorials. It was so tormenting.

"I will visit Mei Fei tonight."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "The Emperor just saw that the arrangement was done."

The mother and son get along well together. Emperor Mingwen sat for a while and then left. Before leaving, he called Chu Yunning away.

"In the future, the Queen Mother's diet should be light, so you should be good at calculating."

"Don't worry, my elders, I know what I know."

Emperor Mingwen thought about it and said, "How is the child?"

Chu Yunning goes to take the pulse every day, and the three concubines’ children are all safe and sound. But he thought of something. Chu Yunning said: "When I asked the Queen for the Prayer pulse to be sent to the Queen this morning, I found something was wrong."

Queen Gong's pulse was much smoother than before, and there were signs of improvement, which meant that Queen Gong had privately found other doctors and was secretly taking medicine to regulate her body.

If the queen improves, the phoenix seal in Chu Yunning's hand will probably not be able to be kept. She can't say whether the harem can be peaceful.

Emperor Mingwen raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "I know this."

That night, news came from Fengqi Palace that the queen was arrested because her personal palace maid made a mistake. The queen's condition worsened in anger and fell on the collapse and couldn't afford to get sick.

When Chu Yunning went to visit, Queen Gong's face was indeed pale and her eyes were staring at her deeply. When she stepped forward, Queen Gong grabbed Chu Yunning's wrist.

"I know that this disease is not an ordinary disease. It is sometimes better and sometimes worse, and it depends on the other person's wishes." Queen Gong refused to take the medicine. The more she drank the medicine, the more she felt, the more she was getting worse.

She vaguely realized something was wrong. Only she knew the bone condition of her body and bones best. She was not as good as taking medicine every day. After taking medicine for two days privately, the symptoms gradually eased.

My thoughts were so terrible that the Empress Gong realized that things were not that simple.

Chu Yunning replied without raising his head: "What did the Empress say? I don't understand."

"Chu Yunning, if you want to cure my illness, you can cure it. If you can't cure it, no one dares to cure it.

, This palace is the mother of a country. If something happens, you will definitely be buried with you!"

The more Queen Gong thought about it, the more she became scared. Someone wanted to kill her. What she was not sure about was whether the emperor was involved in this matter.

"The Empress is thousands of years old, and she is in her prime, how could she die for no reason? You are too worried."

Chu Yunning was glad that he knew medical skills, otherwise he would be killed sooner or later.

"Chu Yunning, the water in the harem is much deeper than you imagined. I can die quietly in the harem. One day if you lose your value, it will not be better than me!"

Chu Yunning said silently, not to deny that the queen's words made sense.

"You retreat, you don't have to come to this palace from now on." The palace queen was too lazy to talk to Chu Yunning. She didn't want to see Chu Yunning again now.

"Yes, I will leave!" Chu Yunning bowed and said goodbye.

After leaving Fengqi Palace, Chu Yunning felt heavy in his heart. One day, will Emperor Mingwen let himself go safely when he loses his value?

She didn't know either.

Chu Yunning knew that she was incompetent to Emperor Mingwen.

"King Xiao."

A voice of greeting came from his ears, and Chu Yunning looked up and saw King Xiao walking towards him.

King Xiao passed by Chu Yunning and suddenly stopped: "Li Shanshan hung the beam yesterday."

After being beaten fifty days, Li Shanshan couldn't stand the reputation of looking at her by the outside world. After the Li family sent someone to accuse her of her, Li Shanshan was a little overwhelmed. While she could go to the ground, she sent the maid to hang her beam in the middle of the night.

It was already this morning when I discovered it.

"The prince is mourning." Chu Yunning said lightly.

Whether Li Shanshan is dead or alive has nothing to do with her. Chu Yunning doesn't think she killed the person. Li Shanshan is the one who wants to harm the person first.

So, she is not worthy of sympathy.

King Xiao snorted coldly: "Chu Yunning, why are you becoming more and more indifferent? Li Shanshan did something wrong and was forced to death. You used to perjury at the beginning!"
