Chapter 104: You are an ugly daughter-in-law who has seen her in-laws
"Someone wants to see Miss Fourth." The road in the palace was full of twists and turns. Aunt Subai took her around a corner, turned back and smiled at her, "We are here."
Yun Nian raised his head and saw an exquisite palace with red walls standing in front of him. The three characters "Fengyi Palace" came into view.
Yun Nian's eyes flashed, "Fengyi Palace, is this the queen's palace?"
But Queen Zhou lived in Qifeng Palace.
Aunt Subai smiled and said, "Yes, but it is not the current queen's palace."
Yun Nian was stunned for a moment, then as if he thought of something, he heard a familiar voice coming from inside, "Come in when you're here."
Yun Nian walked in and smelled the smell of incense.
Fengyi Palace was very quiet and peaceful. There were no palace attendants. When Yun Nian went in, he only saw the eldest princess lighting incense inside.
She vaguely saw the spiritual tablet enshrined in front of the eldest princess.
Logically speaking, it is taboo to enshrine a spiritual tablet in the palace.
Yun Nian was immediately convinced that his guess was correct.
This is the late empress...and also the palace of Xiao Chengjun's deceased mother.
"It's deserted here now, are you afraid?" The eldest princess lit the incense and turned around and smiled at her.
Yun Nian shook his head, unconsciously in awe.
"Come here," the eldest princess said to her, "and give some incense to Cheng'er's mother."
Yun Nian hesitated for a moment after hearing this. Did she offer incense to the late empress?
With her, is she worthy?
In what name did she offer incense to the late queen?
But the footsteps walked past unconsciously.
Yun Nian had never felt so respectful before. Even when facing his former teacher, he never felt so solemn.
The eldest princess seemed to notice her stiffness and discomfort. She smiled and put the lit incense into her hand, "You don't have to be formal. My sister-in-law is very kind. She won't blame you if you give birth to an heir for Cheng'er."
Yun Nian:...
Thank you, I am not comforted at all.
There was a candle burning in front of the spiritual throne, faintly illuminating the spiritual thrones of the sage emperor and sage queen.
Yun Nian stepped forward to offer incense, bowed three times, and then placed the burning incense in the incense burner on the altar.
"Are you curious as to why the deceased emperor and empress's spiritual tablets are in the palace?"
The eldest princess looked a little distracted as she looked at the memorial tablet.
Yun Nian pursed his lips, "It must be what the eldest princess meant."
It was impossible for Emperor Hongwen to put the deceased emperor's spiritual body under his nose. Wouldn't this be disrespectful to himself?
The eldest princess smiled and did not deny it.
"This is just a spiritual place. I occasionally come to chat with my brother and sister-in-law. Cheng'er misses his brother and sister-in-law, so he can come and see it from time to time. The real one is enshrined in the late emperor's mausoleum."
Yun Nian nodded, and the eldest princess said, "Okay, now you have served tea, and you will become a member of my Xiao family from now on."
Yun Nian was silent.
She didn't know how to answer this.
The empress offered the incense stick out of respect, but she did not think it was her daughter-in-law serving tea to her mother-in-law.
But she didn't refute what the eldest princess said.
She's just afraid that...she's just being sentimental.
"I have something to ask you, and you must tell me the truth." The eldest princess looked a little more serious.
"Elder Princess, please speak."
"Wolfsbane, can you really cure it?"
The candle burning in front of the coffin throbbed, as if the deceased emperor and empress were also looking at her.
"I am worried about your future. Without the protection of your father, who knows the life experience of Dabao and Xiaobao, I am afraid that there will be no room for the child."
The eldest princess spoke solemnly.
That one refers to Emperor Hongwen, Yun Nian understands.
Yun Nian closed her eyes and thought deeply. She has not yet prepared the antidote for wolfsbane. If you are bitten by a snake, you need to take a serum. In the same way, wolfsbane also needs to refine the serum antidote. It cannot be cured by ordinary injections and medicine.
, and the wolfsbane is more ferocious, and Xiao Chengjun has been deeply poisoned. Yun Nian cannot guarantee that he can be 100% sure that he can detoxify.
If it were before, she would have agreed immediately because Xiao Chengjun's life and death was not that important to her.
Even if it cannot be cured in the end, it will still be Xiao Chengjun’s fate.
But now she couldn't say it out loud. Xiao Chengjun's life seemed to be no longer so insignificant. In her heart, she wanted Xiao Chengjun to live.
He is the father of Dabao and Xiaobao. Only when he is alive can he protect Dabao and Xiaobao. If he dies, the two babies will have no father.
Seeing her hesitation, the eldest princess sighed deeply, "That's all, I don't blame you..."
"I will try my best." Yun Nian raised his eyes, his eyes clear and serious, and said, "I..."
"Well, you'd better stop talking. The worst thing I'm afraid of is that you are full of hope, but in the end..."
The eldest princess's eyes were a little red.
In the past, if someone questioned her medical skills, she would definitely fight back.
But she understood the eldest princess's mood.
The eldest princess is a person who has a clear distinction between love and hate. She feels sorry for Xiao Chengjun, but she is also worried about Xiao Chengjun all the time.
Worried that he would suffer from wolf poisoning, and that Emperor Hongwen would be unfavorable to him.
"You are considered an ugly daughter-in-law and have met your parents-in-law. Let Subai take you out of the palace. I want to talk to my brother and sister-in-law."
Yun Nian: "..."
She's not ugly...
Aunt Subai came in and asked her to go out. Yun Nian looked back at the gloomy back under the candlelight, thinking about the eldest princess's final outcome, with a trace of unbearable expression on her face.
Qifeng Palace.
The current queen's bedroom.
Because the former empress's palace was Fengyi Palace, one must respect the former empress and not conflict with her, so the name Qifeng Palace was chosen.
For this reason, Queen Zhou had been depressed for many years and could not bear to hear anyone mention Fengyi Palace in front of her.
Although they are both queens, she is still shorter than the previous queen.
Empress Zhou was very unhappy when people still occupied Fengyi Palace and set up memorial tablets for worship in the palace even after they died.
The maid knelt down in front of Queen Zhou tremblingly. Queen Zhou looked gloomy and asked, "Where is the person you asked to lead?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I... I was taken away by Aunt Subai." The palace maid replied stutteringly.
"It's her again!" Queen Zhou threw the cup angrily, "She only has eyes for the late emperor and empress, how could she ever put this palace in her eyes!"
"Your Majesty, be careful what you say. Your Majesty, please calm down." The nanny next to me stepped forward and whispered, "Even Your Majesty respects the eldest princess. Today's birthday banquet is already unpleasant. My Majesty, please don't offend Your Majesty again. If something is said,
, Your Majesty is afraid that you will blame the empress."
"Bear it, bear it, bear it, as long as you can!" Queen Zhou said with an angry look on her face.
She couldn't tolerate Xiao Shuer for more than a day or two.
She is obviously a legitimate queen, so why should she be treated like a princess?
Xiao Shu'er is the eldest princess's maiden name.
"You go down first." Mammy dismissed the palace maid, and then whispered to comfort the queen, "The queen is angry. When our highness King Huai ascends the throne, the queen will be the queen mother, so she can no longer be patient. Your highness's foundation is not stable now, so it is not appropriate."
Let’s break up with the eldest princess, after all, the eldest princess can speak in the clan.”
Queen Zhou's eyes were cold, "Don't she like her brother and sister-in-law? When my son takes over the imperial power, I will let her serve her brother and sister-in-law for the rest of her life!"
