In the days that followed, Bai Ranran stayed quietly in the palace, rarely going out. Occasionally she wanted to visit Taozi and the others at the house in the city, and she also waited for Mo Shaohua to be with her when he was free.
She thought about bringing Taozi and the others to her, but then she thought, it was too dangerous around her right now, so she might as well leave them there to look after her house for safety.
Bai Zixu is still taking care of business matters, so there is no need for Bai Linran to worry about it.
Mo Shaohua introduced him to Fu Xiangyu. After several contacts, Fu Xiangyu was very satisfied with him. He would give him some guidance when he was free, and he regarded him as half a student.
Although he is not a student in name only, outsiders regard him as Fu Xiangyu's student.
Having Fu Xiangyu's relationship will be of great benefit to him in the future.
Bai Zixu is a careful person. He knows that Bai Linran is in a bad mood. He usually handles all the big and small things by himself. He only comes to give her the account book at the beginning of every month.
Bai Lunran was not bored in the palace. She slept until midnight in the morning and learned medical skills with Qian Lan in the afternoon.
A few days ago, Mo Shaohua found a snow-white cat from nowhere, with a fluffy tail like a big broom. It had a soft and well-behaved temperament and could stay in Bai Ranran's arms all day long.
When Bai Lianran sleeps, he will sleep next to Bai Lianran, purring in his throat, which makes people feel particularly at ease.
Bai Liran named her Xuetuan.
With Xue Tuan by her side, Bai Liran didn't even want to go out during the day.
After coming here for so long, she finally lived a stable life where she could raise her baby with peace of mind.
Nothing major happened recently, and there was no more assassination attempt on her. Her life was going smoothly and was extremely comfortable.
Her belly is getting bigger day by day, and her wedding to Mo Shaohua is getting closer.
Jiang passed away not long ago, and she was supposed to observe mourning for Jiang for three years, but the royal family respected her, so she could only follow the royal rules.
Winter is gone, spring is coming, and the weather is getting warmer day by day.
Bai Ranran asked someone to place a royal couch next to the koi pond in the back garden. She held the cute little kitten in her arms, stroking the cat with her hands, and watched Qian Lan practicing her sword vigorously in the distance.
Yun Shu stayed by her side, answering some strange questions she asked from time to time.
For example, did the Queen invite someone to enter the palace today?
Every time she asked, Yun Shu looked helpless, "Probably not."
The queen has been in poor health recently. According to the news from the palace, the queen has nightmares every night, has splitting headaches, is upset and irritable, and can't calm down even by reading the scriptures.
It was difficult to sleep well, I had constant headaches, and my body often felt extremely cold. Even lighting a fire pot and putting on a quilt didn't help.
Her condition was getting worse day by day, and the imperial doctors were unable to do anything. She drank medicine every day, but it had no effect at all.
These days, her mood swings became more and more severe, and when she was irritable, she smashed everything in the palace.
Some bad rumors gradually spread in the palace, saying that the concubine whom the queen killed was entangled with her and made her crazy.
The reason for the Queen's sudden madness was unknown to others, but Bai Liran knew it very well.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, the eight-treasure glazed Buddhist beads that the eighth princess bought for the queen were soaked in poison in advance.
The Queen has been a Buddhist for many years, and everyone in the palace knows that. In those days, because of the death of the prince, the Queen was in a bad mood, so she made good plans to take the Eighth Princess to Jinyuzhai, and also made good plans that she would buy this string of Buddhist beads to please the Queen.
happy.
As for whether the Queen would use this string of Buddhist beads, she figured that the Queen would.
The Queen is extremely doting on the Eighth Princess. If she uses the things given by the Eighth Princess, the Eighth Princess will feel happy. She must hope that the Eighth Princess will be happy.
The poison in the beads is colorless and odorless. When it invades the body, it is like cold air intruding into the body. In fact, it will corrode the nerves, causing splitting headaches, insomnia and dreams, sleepless nights, gradual loss of sanity, and complete mental illness.
Bai Liran waited for the palace doctor to be helpless, waiting to see when the queen would remember her as a folk miracle doctor.
Qianlan finished practicing her sword and walked towards Bai Ranran with steady steps.
The young man's dark hair fluttered in the wind, with two chic bangs. The broken hair on his forehead was wet with sweat, and his delicate-skinned cheeks showed a hint of pink after exercise.
Bai Lanran watched him coming over, sat up, and poured him a cup of tea, "How is the medicine I asked you to prepare yesterday? Do you think studying medicine is not as interesting as studying martial arts?"
Qianlan took the tea in her hand and took a sip.
He sat down at the stone table, his chest rising and falling due to the exercise just now, and his voice was breathless when he spoke, "I will be fine tomorrow. I think studying medicine is very interesting."
Recently, I had good food at the palace, and my light blue smiling face has become rounder to the naked eye. My skinny cheeks have gained a little baby fat, and I look a bit like a young boy.
Mo Shaohua also found a cultural teacher for Qian Lan, who was more interested in Qian Lan as his apprentice than she was as a serious master.
Bai Lanran took out the handkerchief and threw it in front of Qianlan, "Wipe your sweat. Don't be too tired. Go out and pick up bird eggs when you have nothing to do. Play hide-and-seek with the children outside. Don't always read and practice swordsmanship at home.
Nothing like a child."
She had tried her best to persuade Qianlan countless times, but Qianlan always thought her words were falling on deaf ears and was too lazy to pay attention to her.
Seeing Qianlan's silence, Bailiran lay down boredly and continued to pet the cat.
At this time in the past, Mo Shaohua had already returned, and he has not been seen until today.
After Mo Shaohua entered the court for only a month, he gained the recognition of Emperor Chengde. Emperor Chengde gradually placed more emphasis on him, and he had to do more things every day.
Bai Lanran didn't know what was wrong. She always felt uneasy today and vaguely thought something was going to happen.
Unable to sit still, she simply stood up with the snow ball in her arms and said to Qian Lan and Yun Shu: "Let's go, I will take you out for a walk today."
Mo Shaohua never had a clue about the assassin.
Although nothing happened recently, Mo Shaohua did not relax his vigilance at all, and arranged four secret guards around Bai Lunran, and asked them to follow her closely every time she went out.
Yun Shu took the aqua blue brocade cloak next to him and put it on Bai Lanran's shoulders. He took the snow ball from her arms and followed her back to the dormitory and placed the snow ball in the palace.
Bai Lanran rarely takes Qianlan out, and today he happened to be nearby, so she took him out for a walk to prevent him from being bored in the house every day and becoming dull.
Just outside the promenade beside the lotus pond in the front yard, Mo Shaohua walked towards me with a deep expression.
He seemed to be in a trance, completely unaware of Bai Ranran not far away.
Tens of meters apart, Bai Eranran could feel the low pressure on Mo Shaohua's body.
He is not happy!
Is there any problem that he cannot solve?
After taking another two steps closer, Mo Shaohua noticed the three people in front of him. The moment he raised his head and saw Bai Ranran, he subconsciously hid the imperial edict behind his back.
