Xian Zi Ai hesitated for a moment, but still looked at the baby with a smile, but did not move to hold the baby or tease the baby. She just stood aside and watched quietly.
"This little baby is indeed very cute. Although he is thinner, he has beautiful features."
It is really exquisitely made. The Queen Mother really cherishes this little baby. She must have hired the best master to make it and let it sit for a few days. Today she specially took it out to express her congratulations to Mrs. Guan. Maybe it is because this longevity lock has some weight, and this little baby has just been born.
He was born with a delicate body, and he would cry when he couldn't help but feel the weight."
Mrs. Guan secretly cursed the Queen Mother in her heart, but she smiled gratefully and said: "The Queen Mother has always cared about children. When Yupeng and Yucheng were young, they were invited to play in the palace many times by the Queen Mother. This time, I said that I have come to
Thinking back to it, it seems that one time I took Yucheng to the palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother, and they met Princess Hanyu who was still a child. They had fun at that time, but they didn't expect that they would meet with the Queen Mother's help.
We are husband and wife, it is destiny, and my father-in-law must express his gratitude to the Queen Mother on behalf of my concubine."
"That's natural." The father-in-law seemed a little uncomfortable and said hurriedly, "I have to return to the palace to report to the Queen Mother, so I won't stop here. I'll take my leave. I wonder if the second son of the Guan family is in the palace now.
, go to the palace with you to meet the Queen Mother?"
"This -" Mrs. Guan was just about to speak when she heard Xian Zijia cough lightly. It seemed that her throat was a little uncomfortable. She subconsciously glanced at Xian Zijia, but she did not look towards her. She turned her head and whispered to Xian Zijia.
He spoke, but waved a hand towards himself without trace, meaning not to agree, "I saw him here in the morning. He may have just gone out right now. I have also been thinking about Princess Hanyu these days.
, probably went out early in the morning to choose a gift for Princess Hanyu. The Xian family shop was busy preparing betrothal gifts for our Guan Mansion. Yu Cheng was worried. Maybe he went over to look at it. The concubine then sent someone to look for it and asked him to rush to the palace immediately.
middle."
"In that case, I'll take my leave first." The father-in-law seemed to be deliberately avoiding Xian Zijian and did not continue to wait. "Then I'll worry about trouble with the family."
Mrs. Guan did not try to persuade him to stay, and immediately sent someone to send her father-in-law off smoothly.
"It's really vicious." Xian Ziqian watched the father-in-law leave, listened to the sound of the carriage driving away, and when everything returned to silence, she said in a light tone, "I started poisoning you when I was a child!"
Guan Yupeng was startled and looked at Xian Zijian.
Xian Zijian smiled slightly, and her tone of half-truth could not tell whether it was a perfunctory or a sincere explanation, "Ever since she learned that her sister was poisoned, Zijian has been very curious, and specially asked her husband to get some of this poison to look at it and smell it.
Smell, when I saw the longevity lock just now, Zi Daan smelled the same smell. It’s just that the longevity lock was made very delicately, but the portion was wrong, so I guessed that something might have been done inside.”
As he said this, Xian Ziyuan casually opened a secret lock of the longevity lock, revealing some green-looking broken leaves. It seemed that some fresh leaves were specially taken and washed with clean water, and then exposed to the sun to dry up. Finally,
Make useful herbal medicines. This herbal medicine is originally beneficial to the blood, but if exposed to too much, the toxins will be leached into the blood over time, and both men and women will miss the fate of having a son and a daughter.
"Sure enough, it has something to do with the palace!" Guan Yupeng said angrily, grabbing the longevity lock and throwing it to the ground, "It turned out to be the Queen Mother who personally arranged it!"
"Don't drop it." Xian Ziyi immediately stepped forward to grab the longevity lock, "Since the Queen Mother has given this kind of object to the Guan Mansion, if the Queen Mother thinks of it in the future, we will send the young lady to the palace to see the Queen Mother.
Naturally, this longevity lock must be worn everywhere, otherwise it will be disrespectful to the Queen Mother. You must not break it."
"Yes." Xian Ziqian handed the baby to the nanny, motioned to the nanny to take the baby away, and looked at Guan Yupeng, "This is too reckless, why not do this. Let's find some herbs with similar tastes and make herbs with the same appearance and put them in the longevity lock.
, it can be beneficial to the baby and avoid being discovered by the Queen Mother, wouldn’t it be better?”
Guan Yupeng nodded, glanced at Xian Zijian, "Okay, I'll arrange for Dr. Lu to do it right now."
"I also want to ask Dr. Lu to prepare some medicine for the second young master of the Guan family. This time the second young master of the Guan family went to the palace and made an appointment alone to discuss matters with Princess Hanyu. Princess Hanyu has always been good at using poison. Since this matter
It is inseparable from the relationship with the Queen Mother, and naturally has a certain relationship with Princess Hanyu. The Queen Mother has the power, and Princess Hanyu can use poison. Moreover, it is said that the prince who has the best relationship with Princess Hanyu is the heir to the future emperor.
, so the Guan family cannot afford to offend, so why not make preparations in advance, lest the second son of the Guan family go to the palace and be drugged by Princess Hanyu and tell the truth in a confused way." Xian Ziqian said softly, "Just be prepared.
Some medicine can be used to prevent the second young master of the Guan family from being deceived. After all, the second young master of the Guan family is also the future husband of Princess Hanyu, so naturally he will not really do anything poisonous. That would be harmful to others and himself."
Guan Yupeng nodded immediately, and only then did Mrs. Guan understand why Xian Zijian had just reminded her with gestures.
"In this case, I will go to the temple to pray for the baby." Mrs. Guan said to her son without looking at the Xian sisters, "You should worry more about the affairs of the family."
"Yes, I know." Guan Yupeng nodded immediately.
"It's best to act more truthfully." Xian Ziqian said in a calm tone, "The Queen Mother is not an easy person to deceive. If you act lukewarm towards this baby, the Queen Mother will definitely become suspicious and wonder if there is someone involved.
Lie, you must treat this baby as your own child, treat it like a treasure, and not reveal any flaws."
Guan Yupeng glanced at his mother and said softly: "Mom, what the beloved princess said makes perfect sense. This is related to the lives of hundreds of people in our Guan Mansion. We can't be careless."
Although Mrs. Guan did not speak, she nodded to show that she understood.
Watching Mrs. Guan leave, Guan Yupeng also arranged for someone to find Guan Yucheng. Then he looked at Guan Yupeng and asked calmly: "How are the child's biological parents doing now?"
Guan Yupeng nodded, "According to the instructions of the princess I like, the child's biological parents have been secretly protected. When I return to the border, I will take them to the border together. I will take this child to the border. She is nominally A Qing's."
child, but I will choose to let the child’s biological mother be the child’s wet nurse.”
