Nan Qing entered Er Er's space and analyzed the general situation between the prince and Liao Yan together.
Er Er: "If fewer people die this winter, the prince will probably not kill Liao Yan."
"Snow disaster, disaster relief food, disaster relief money." Nan Qing muttered, thinking of ways in his mind.
"The male protagonist of the world will become the emperor. He will change everything that is corrupt now. He will not let Liao Yan live." Er Er said objectively.
Nan Qing: "To change his ending, can I poison Liao Yan tonight and kill him in advance?"
Er Er looked at Nan Qing with a speechless expression and rolled his eyes, as if if you dare to say such a thing again, I will kick you out.
Nan Qing smiled and picked up the pillow and leaned in his arms: "I have an idea, it's very simple and crude."
Er Er: "What method?"
…
Liao Yan didn't come for dinner, so four maids waited on her to eat, and then waited on Nan Qing to wash up and then went out.
Although Zhuangzi's room was not as big as her bedroom, the bed and bedding were still very comfortable. Nan Qing fell asleep quickly hugging the soft quilt.
Someone came at night, and someone lay quietly beside her without even knowing it.
He hugged her greedily, smelled her scent, and left traces on her body that he could not see. The traces on her white and tender skin made him excited.
The next day, Nan Qing woke up feeling a little unwell and had a little pain in her lower back. She looked back but couldn't see anything.
The maid came in to help her get up.
Liao Yan was not seen during breakfast, and Nan Qing did not ask him where he had gone.
The carriage back to the palace is already waiting outside.
She got on the carriage and returned to the city. The carriage did not take her back to the palace immediately, but instead went to Tianyin Tower.
When Nan Qing saw the substitute, he found that Zhuangzi's maid was interested. The substitute was wearing aqua clothes today, and the maid had also worn aqua clothes for her this morning.
After the substitute left, Nan Qing met up with Nanny and Qing Shang.
Although Governor Liao sent someone last night to tell them that His Highness would stay outside the palace for one night so that they did not have to worry, they were still a little worried. Now they were relieved to see that His Highness was safe and sound.
Mammy: "Did you have a good time, Your Highness?"
"The maple leaves in Nanshan are beautiful." Nan Qing didn't say much else. For example, she and Liao Yan were having a bit of a quarrel.
Her birthday will be in half a month, and she will be very busy during this period. It is estimated that she will not meet Liao Yan in private in the short term.
Back in the palace, Grandma and Qing Shang gave Nan Qing a bath at night.
The large pear wood bathtub was filled with hot water and filled with smoke. Nan Qing stood aside and let Qing Shang take off her dress. The clothes were removed one by one, leaving only her bellyband. Suddenly Qing Shang exclaimed.
Grandma, who was testing the water temperature, was startled and asked, "What's wrong?"
Nan Qing also looked back at Qing Shang in confusion. Qing Shang's face was shocked and a little complicated. She opened her mouth and did not dare to speak.
Seeing something wrong with her face, grandma immediately walked over and followed Qing Shang's gaze to look at Nan Qing's lower back. As a result, she was stunned. The next second, she was angry and annoyed.
Speechless.
There are actually green and red marks on His Highness's white and tender waist and back vest, and there are even finger prints. The green and red marks look like... they look like they were made by someone's mouth.
Qingshang's eyes turned red and she looked at her: "What, what should I do?"
Although she was young and had not yet completed her career, it was really hard not to think about that when looking at this trace.
Nan Qing looked at the two of them with pure and confused eyes: "What's wrong with you? Is there anything on my back?"
Mammy calmed down and asked: "Your Highness is used to the bedding in the palace. Did you sleep well last night when you rested outside?"
"I slept well. The bedding prepared by Liao Yan in the room was very soft. I slept all night until dawn."
Qing Shang wanted to ask the princess directly about the traces on her back, but the nanny pulled her sleeve, so Qing Shang endured it.
When they were washing up later, they checked carefully and found that except for the marks on the waist of His Highness's back, the rest of his body was fine and intact.
Mammy secretly made up her mind to prevent His Highness from getting too close to Governor Liao.
This is no child's play. Although Governor Liao is not a man, who knows what he is thinking. Your Highness is so young and doesn't understand anything.
The palace clothes that Nan Qing will wear on his birthday have been made. The embroidery materials are extremely luxurious, and the hair and face are also made of fine jade.
She put it on, and her grandma put heavy makeup on her. Her face, which was still a little childish, suddenly became a lot more mature. She was probably the girl who would be the most beautiful girl in the world.
The imperial concubine and the emperor came over for dinner today. When they saw her wearing this palace dress, they were both stunned, and then sighed that she had grown up.
"It's the haircut ceremony in three days. Qing'er will no longer be a child. Does Qing'er have someone you like? Father, let's see if I can be your consort." The emperor asked half-jokingly and half-seriously.
He has been ill recently. He has had a lot of gray hair since he was over forty. He doesn't want anything else. He just wants to see Nangong Qing'er get married. It would be best if he could hold a grandson.
Nan Qing pretended to be shy and blushed: "Qing'er has been thinking about milk cakes and flying kites all day long and missing a few big letters. She has no such thoughts at all."
"Now that we have him, what do you think of the eldest son of the Wang family? He is the head of the family, and many of his disciples have obtained titles. Only such a big family can be worthy of my princess."
"The prince-in-law cannot serve as an official in the court. If I marry that eldest son, wouldn't it ruin his career?"
"Hey, that's wrong. It would be a good career for me to be my consort and marry you." The emperor said with a smile.
"Father, you are just making fun of me." Nan Qing pretended to be angry.
The imperial concubine held her handkerchief and smiled, and the three of them were enjoying themselves as if they were ordinary people.
The emperor still had memorials to read, so he went back after dinner, but the imperial concubine stayed behind, and mother and daughter talked quietly at night.
The imperial concubine asked Nan Qing if he had someone he liked. She was too shy to tell her during the meal. Now she could tell her where to send the message to the emperor.
"Qing'er, as long as you like, you can get any kind of man." The imperial concubine said.
"Mother, no, I don't have anyone I like."
Nan Qing looked very sleepy, so the imperial concubine didn't ask any more questions.
It was dark inside the bed curtain, the night was silent, and eunuchs with only knives patrolled the palace roads.
Suddenly, there was a noise in a palace. The maids hurriedly turned on the lamps. The palace was brightly lit. The imperial concubine hugged her daughter anxiously: "Qing'er, Qing'er, what's wrong? Are you having a nightmare?"
"ah!"
Nan Qing's eyes were blank. She seemed to have seen some terrible scene, and she kept shouting something: "So many dead people, so cold..."
The imperial concubine hugged her and asked anxiously: "Where is the imperial doctor? Why hasn't the imperial doctor come yet?"
Mammy: "My dearest lady, I've sent someone to ask for the imperial doctor."
Your Highness, this is not like a nightmare, but more like a nightmare.
There was so much commotion here that the Mozhu Pavilion was also alarmed.
Chen An took someone to carry the imperial doctor over directly to save time.
Since the imperial concubine was inside, it was difficult for people from Mozhu Pavilion to show up, so a palace maid was asked to keep an eye on it, and any news would be spread immediately.
