After Qinglian prepared the meal, she invited Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu to have dinner. However, she saw her prince and princess staring at each other, and she couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"My Lord, my Princess, are you playing some new game?"
Qian Jiujiu blinked his eyes, feeling a little sore. It was just a new game, and his eyes were tired. "No, what's the matter?"
Qinglian said, "It's time to eat. Hongling has prepared the meal and asked me to come and serve you!"
It turned out that it was time for lunch. No wonder she felt hungry. However, she did not forget what she was thinking about and glanced at Mu Yexiao.
Qian Jiujiu snorted, "Your Majesty, I have to go to Dahongbao Temple. I want to find Master Zhiyin."
Mu Yexiao coughed twice, and while being carried away by Qian Jiujiu, he told Qian Jiujiu: "Master Zhiyin is not someone you can see whenever you want, and Master Zhiyin is here to see you."
"It means that you can't meet her anywhere else, so you'd better stay in the palace."
Qian Jiujiu expressed dissatisfaction: "That's not the case. He even asked me to go to Dahongbao Temple to find him when I have something to do!"
Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu in surprise: "What do you want?"
Qian Jiujiu was about to tell it immediately, of course it was about going back, but fortunately she didn't say it out loud. If she said it out loud, her biggest secret would be ruined.
Moreover, the old monk had already told her to make the best of it, so he would definitely not tell her the method. Qian Jiujiu suddenly became a little listless.
"Yeah, I have nothing to do now. Even if I find him, it won't help. Let's go eat."
Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu in confusion. He didn't know why Qian Jiujiu suddenly seemed to lose energy. "Jiu'er, what's wrong with you?"
Qian Jiujiu curled her lips and said, "I'm fine. Just let me think about it for two days and it will be fine."
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the dining room. The two of them each ate a bowl of noodles, and then Qian Jiujiu returned to the pharmacy. She still had a question in her mind that she couldn't figure out.
Great love in the heart? What is that? What does it mean for her to do something? But she only knows how to cure diseases and save lives. More importantly, she opened a health center for women of this era.
It was a great convenience, wasn't it? If that wasn't great love, then what was? Could it be that there was a plague somewhere, waiting for her to go and save it
Ah, bah, bah, bah, what are you thinking about! Oh! Qian Jiujiu sighed. She still had a lot of things to do. Her house was not built yet, and her mother was not found yet.
Who took her away? Why didn't they leave any clues
Just when Qian Jiujiu was feeling depressed, there was a knock on the door: "Princess, are you done? The prince wants to see you about something."
Qian Jiujiu was a little annoyed. Didn't they just separate? What happened again? She opened the door with a dissatisfied look on her face and saw Mu Yexiao was already at her door.
"What do you want from me again?"
Mu Yexiao coughed twice and said, "Let's go to the palace. I see you're in a bad mood, so let's just relax."
Qian Jiujiu's mouth twitched. Going to the palace to relax? Her cardiology department was not that strong, but Mu Yexiao's next words made her unable to resist.
"Besides, we haven't even had time to go to the palace since we got out of the prison, so it's good to go and pay our respects to the emperor. After all, the emperor has always supported us on this matter."
Hearing this, Qian Jiujiu could only nod his head: "Okay, get ready and go to the palace. I will make some fitness pills for my father."
With that, Qian Jiujiu went back to the pharmacy, but this time she didn't let her mind wander. Instead, she quickly prepared some pills, took them with her, and pushed Mu Yexiao out.
The two of them came all the way to the palace. Just as they arrived at the palace gate, they saw the Qian family's carriage coming out. They were a little surprised. Why was the Qian family's carriage still at the palace gate
The head maid Hong Ling saw the surprise in Qian Jiujiu's eyes, ran over to inquire and came back soon: "Princess, that Madam Qian was just beaten with a hundred boards."
"It's really hard for me to imagine that Madam Qian, a weak woman, was beaten with a hundred sticks and she didn't die. It's really unexpected."
The corner of Qian Jiujiu's mouth twitched. In fact, she didn't think there was anything strange. She was actually told that the death penalty could be pardoned. That meant that no matter how many times she was beaten with the stick, she would not be allowed to die.
These people have been beaten with sticks for years, and they must have figured out various ways of doing it. Some of them will cause internal injuries, while others, even if they look serious, are just external injuries.
So it was normal that no one died after 100 blows. However, in the case of Madam Qian, Qian Jiujiu just sighed and said, "It really is a disaster that has lasted for thousands of years."
Hong Ling nodded repeatedly: "The princess is right. This Madam Qian is really a disaster. It's not that easy for her to die."
After passing the Qian family's carriage, Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao went directly to Concubine Qing's palace to pay their respects. Concubine Qing looked very happy when she saw the two of them.
Especially after hearing about Qian Jiujiu's phoenix fate from the emperor, he was even more satisfied with Concubine Qian Jiujiu Qing, and the smile on her face was much more sincere today.
But Qian Jiujiu didn't know all this. She just felt that Concubine Qing was particularly enthusiastic today.
"My daughter-in-law greets my mother. May you be safe and sound."
Imperial Concubine Qing smiled and helped Qian Jiujiu up: "You are all well, so that I can be at peace. Hurry up and let me see if you have been wronged in the prison."
Qian Jiujiu smiled and replied: "Don't worry, mother. The prince will accompany you and take care of you all the way. I am doing well, but I made you worried. It is my fault."
Concubine Qing patted Qian Jiujiu's hand and said, "That's not your fault. Some people did it deliberately. Don't worry. Although that person is not dead, mother will not let her life be easy."
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other. Could it be that there was some other arrangement behind this
At this time in Minister Qian's residence, Old Madam Qian had not recovered from her illness in the cell yet, so she was ignoring everything and recuperating in her room.
As for Madam Qian, needless to say, although she was not killed after being beaten with a hundred boards, she was not relaxed at all, and she has not yet called a doctor.
Minister Qian originally thought that keeping such a lady would be a disaster, but suddenly he remembered one thing, that is, what would happen if Madam Qian died.
It's hard to explain. Although he is the Shangshu of the dynasty, he is still not good enough in front of Madam Qian's family, because Madam Qian's surname is Wang.
The Wang family is the number one family in the world, and its ability is extremely powerful. At least he, a Shangshu, cannot resist it, and the disciples of this Wang family are spread all over the world.
So far, no family has been able to fight against it, so Minister Qian quickly asked someone to invite a doctor for Madam Qian and started treating her.
Just when Madam Qian had finished applying medicine for her illness, the imperial edict from Concubine Qing came from the harem, saying that the unrest in Minister Qian's harem was due to the unvirtuous mistress.
Moreover, this time, my youngest daughter Qian Jiujiu suffered such a great injustice. As a father, I should give Qian Jiujiu an explanation.
When Minister Qian saw this decree, he knew that this was Concubine Qing coming to support his daughter-in-law. He sighed and didn't know what to do with Madam Qian.
If Madam Qian was to be divorced, that would be even more unacceptable, so after thinking about it, Minister Qian decided to send Madam Qian to the family temple.
It was also a good opportunity to give an explanation to those members of the Qian family who were in jail, so the decision was happily made. Madam Qian was sent to the Qian family temple in a bundle by Minister Qian.
When Madam Qian heard the news, she looked at Minister Qian with anger on her face, "What does the master mean by this? You want me to go to the family temple?"
Minister Qian looked embarrassed: "Madam, I don't want to do that either, but think about it, Concubine Qing in the palace is waiting to cause trouble for you, as well as those clansmen."
"So what your husband means is that you should go to the family temple to recuperate first and stay out of the spotlight. In your bag, there is silver and medicine for your injuries, and two of your close-knit maids."
"Just think of it as a way to relax."
Madam Qian snorted coldly: "You sound nice, go and relax? Then when can I come back?"
Minister Qian hesitated for a moment and looked at Madam Qian: "This is what I think. If you go to the ancestral temple, it's best to stay there for two months. After two months, find a way to bring Yuge back."
"And in two months, it will be the Queen Mother's birthday and the New Year. Whether it's the Queen Mother's birthday or the New Year banquet, the Qian family will need you to host it."
"You can take the opportunity to come back then, and if I'm not mistaken, my brother-in-law will definitely come to the palace at that time, which is a good time for you to come back."
Madam Qian saw that Minister Qian had really thought of everything, so she nodded and said, "Okay, since the master is willing to protect me, I will live in the family temple for two months."
"Two months passed quickly anyway."
Minister Qian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Madam Qian finally agreed to his idea. This was better than making a fuss all the time, and Madam Qian was not in the mansion.
He could relax and unwind for two months. Just like that, Madam Qian was sent to the ancestral temple in a carriage. Just after Madam Qian set off, Concubine Qing also received the news.
The eunuch came to Concubine Qing's palace and said, "Greetings, Concubine Qing, my servant's order has been conveyed. Lord Minister Qian has secretly taken Madam Qian to the family temple.
Qian Jiujiu's eyes flickered. Doesn't that mean there is no punishment? Seeing that Concubine Qing and Mu Yexiao were both satisfied, she had no objection.
"Thank you, mother. You are so kind to your daughter-in-law."
Concubine Qing smiled and said, "You are so good at saying nice things. You are my only daughter-in-law. If I don't treat you well, who should I treat well?"
Qian Jiujiu curled her lips and said, "Then what mother means is that if you have more daughters-in-law in the future, you won't treat them well?"
