Ning Qingyan took Banxia and left quietly amid the endless regrets of the madam.
The madam was left standing in front of the door, waving her hands reluctantly.
It was already midnight when we returned to Prince Ding's Mansion.
Lying on the bed, Ning Qingyan was not sleepy at all.
Zhao Yun's physical problems troubled her greatly.
But I didn't expect that at dawn the next day, news came from the palace that the queen had invited me.
When Ning Qingyan brought Banxia and Bai Wei to the palace and met the queen, she found that she was the only one invited to the palace.
"Brothers and sisters, sit down quickly." The queen was very enthusiastic.
As soon as he saw Ning Qingyan, he greeted her to sit down in an approachable manner.
"Prince Ding and Your Majesty are brothers from the same mother, so the relationship between our two families is naturally closer than that of other royal families." Queen Li said.
"That's what Your Highness said." Ning Qingyan didn't know the queen's purpose of inviting her to the palace today.
The smile on Mr. Li's face became more genuine.
Ning Qingyan could feel that Mr. Li's eyes were always on her.
As if to see what kind of flowers are there.
‘Could it be that you are looking for a place for Zhao Xingyue?’ Ning Qingyan rolled her eyes.
In her impression, the only person she had to spend time with the royal family was Zhao Xingyue.
"Brother and sister... I'd better call you Qingyan, how about that?" Mr. Li's attitude was very kind, and he didn't look like he was asking for trouble.
"Your Highness, you can do whatever you want." Ning Qingyan also felt that calling her by her name was more pleasant to her ears than calling her 'younger brother and sister'.
"The queen mother is no longer here, and there are no older female elders in the Ning Mansion. Therefore, only I, my sister-in-law, can say some things." Mrs. Li seemed to be in a dilemma.
Especially when she saw Ning Qingyan looking at her with clear eyes, she felt a little embarrassed.
However, when she thought of the mission assigned by the emperor, Li had no choice but to say this.
"Ahem, Qingyan, how many days have you been married into Prince Ding's palace? How is Prince Ding treating you?" Mrs. Li asked tactfully.
Ning Qingyan was silent for a moment.
Frankly speaking, Zhao Yun did not treat her badly.
But, he... seems like he can't give her what she wants most?
Ning Qingyan's silence made Mrs. Li ask eagerly: "What? King Ding treats you badly?"
"That's not true." Ning Qingyan's eyes moved, but she told the truth.
Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought of her silence just now, and couldn't help but ask: "Did something happen? You don't have to hide it in front of me."
Ning Qingyan stared at her and blinked.
The queen is so free? Doesn’t she care about other people’s inner courtyard affairs?
Seemingly sensing Ning Qingyan's doubts, Mrs. Li explained: "After all, your Majesty has ordered your marriage. Naturally, I and Your Majesty hope that you will be happy."
"Thank you, Your Majesty and Your Highness." Ning Qingyan said.
Seeing that Ning Qingyan was reluctant to elaborate, Mrs. Li struggled in her heart for a moment, and then said directly: "Prince Ding is not young anymore. Since Qingyan you married into Prince Ding's palace and became Prince Ding's concubine, then you must
Think more about choosing a prince and heir."
Heir?
Ning Qingyan suddenly understood the purpose of the queen calling her here today.
This is the birth of Mingming!
But the problem is, giving birth to a child is not something she can achieve!
As soon as this was mentioned, Ning Qingyan felt filled with grievances.
The queen's words were clear, and she was not ambiguous. She said directly: "Your Highness, it's not that I don't want to have a baby, it's that our prince can't do it!"
The expression on Mrs. Li's face froze, and the tea cup she was holding fell to the ground.
"What, what did you say?" The queen probably never expected that she would be caught off guard by hearing this!
However, Ning Qingyan nodded her head very seriously and repeated: "Your Highness, Prince Ding is really not good at this!"
"..." Li's expression cracked in shock.
What, what's going on?
It took a long time for Ms. Li to repair her cracked expression. She forced a smile and controlled the trembling of her fingers, "Are you sure about Qingyan?"
Seeing that she didn't believe it, Ning Qingyan simply stood up, spread her arms, and turned around in front of the queen. "What do you think, Your Highness?"
"What?" Li Shi obviously didn't keep up with Ning Qingyan's rhythm.
Ning Qingyan's delicate and beautiful little face was full of indignation: "I think I'm not bad looking. Although my figure is not yet open, I'm pretty and pretty. I think I'm somewhat charming."
"Ahem...yeah." Mrs. Li covered her lips and smiled softly.
Ning Qingyan's expression became more and more indignant. "At first, King Ding thought I was young and told him to wait a few more years, but I believed him. But I didn't expect that the real reason why he didn't consummate the marriage with me was not because he thought I was young.
But he can’t!”
The shock in Mrs. Li's eyes did not disappear, so she quickly interrupted her: "Qingyan, there are some things you should not say nonsense."
"If Your Highness doesn't believe it, you can ask the imperial doctor to check the prince." Ning Qingyan said bluntly.
"This..." Li was a little hesitant as it was a matter of royal dignity.
Ning Qingyan said again at this time: "Your Highness, since Your Majesty has married me to Prince Ding, you must make the decision for me! Early detection and early treatment may save me!"
Mr. Li's eyes kept moving, as if he was thinking about Ning Qingyan's words.
"Your Highness, the heirs to Prince Ding's palace, Yanmian, depend on you!"
Ning Qingyan's words made Mr. Li make a decision.
She stood up and said to Ning Qingyan in a firm tone: "I will report to His Majesty immediately and send an imperial doctor who specializes in this field to follow you back home."
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Ning Qingyan said movedly.
Mrs. Li left Ning Qingyan in her palace and left in a hurry.
After the queen's figure disappeared, Ning Qingyan raised her hand to wipe the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes.
The original expression of anger and grievance was gone, leaving only a slight smile and indifference that showed success.
…
The queen left quickly and returned quickly.
By the time Ning Qingyan left the palace, there were already five more doctors specializing in andrology in the team.
Back at Prince Ding's Mansion, when Ning Qingyan personally sent five male doctors to Zhao Yun, someone's face turned dark.
"Madam, what do you mean?" Zhao Yun glanced at the five imperial doctors standing in a row, and all five of them shrank their necks in unison.
Ning Qingyan shrugged innocently, "This is the kindness of Your Majesty and the Queen."
"..." Zhao Yun's eyes became a little colder.
The five imperial doctors instantly seemed to be in an ice storm.
'Although Prince Ding is sick and weak, his eyes are so scary!'
The five people exchanged glances silently.
"I don't need it." Zhao Yun had a dark face and gritted his teeth.
He told Shifang, "Let them go."
Shifang was a little hesitant.
Originally, when he saw the princess coming with five male doctors, he was also angry.
However, when I thought about it, my master was indeed sick and weak. Could it be that...
Therefore, after hearing the master's instructions, Shifang did not immediately carry out the instructions as usual, but instead joined the ranks of admonitions: "Your Majesty, why don't you take a look first?"
"Shut up!" If looks could kill, Zhao Yun believed Shifang was already dead at this time.
Ning Qingyan smiled and said, "You don't have to be angry. They came here on an order. If your illness doesn't heal, they will stay in the palace for one day until the prince recovers."
"I am not sick!" Zhao Yun said through gritted teeth.
Ning Qingyan clasped her hands behind her back, took two steps back, and stood by the door with a smile on her face. "This is not something you and I have the final say on. It depends on several imperial doctors."
After saying that, she turned to look at the five imperial doctors: "Everyone, it's up to you whether Prince Ding's Mansion can flourish or not."
The five of them looked at King Ding as if he wanted to kill someone, and suddenly felt that they had a heavy responsibility!
