The Northwest Palace and the Kang Palace had formed a mortal feud fourteen years ago.
Fourteen years ago, Shen Yueshan was summoned to the capital to receive an award. No one expected that the wine given by the emperor was drugged.
At first, it was thought that Shen Yueshan, who was drunk, was allowed to take a rest in the palace. It was at that time that Xiao sneaked into the bedroom where Shen Yueshan was resting.
The palace was defiled and the victim was the emperor's cousin, the legitimate daughter of Prince Kang.
Emperor Youning was furious. If the empress dowager had not found out that someone had drugged Shen Yueshan and it was Xiao herself who bribed the palace maids and touched the wine bestowed by the emperor, Shen Yueshan would have been thrown into prison.
Even so, the royal family had to maintain their reputation, so how could Emperor Youning allow his cousin to be a concubine? However, the fault was with Xiao, and the empress dowager was in charge of justice. The royal family members put pressure on Shen Yueshan to marry Xiao as his co-wife.
Shen Yueshan could only agree while suppressing his nausea. When the news spread back to the Northwest, the Princess of the Northwest, who was pregnant with Shen Xihe, was immediately shocked and was forced to give birth prematurely at only eight months. She then suffered from a difficult labor and passed away after giving birth to the sickly Shen Xihe.
Shen Yueshan immediately went to the palace, handed over the military power in the northwest, and observed mourning for his first wife, refusing to marry Xiao again.
It happened that the Turks outside the northwest invaded at this time. Emperor Youning had no choice but to reprimand the Xiao family and the Kang Palace, and posthumously confer titles on the Princess of the Northwest and the still-hanging Shen Xihe.
In the end, Shen Xihe was granted the title of Princess Zhaoning, with a fief of 3,000 square meters and the treatment of a duke. The word "Ning" was included in the title to highlight the emperor's favor.
Shen Yun'an was named the crown prince, and Xiao stayed in Kyoto, never allowed to set foot in the northwest for the rest of his life.
Shen Yueshan was then ordered to lead his troops to quell the rebellion in the northwest.
No one expected that Xiao was pregnant two months later, and gave birth to Shen Yueshan's only illegitimate daughter, Shen Yingruo, ten months later.
Her father is the powerful King of the Northwest, her mother is the legitimate daughter of a princess in the royal palace, and her uncle is the current emperor. She should have been a daughter of a wealthy family, but she is extremely embarrassed because she was born out of wedlock.
A few years ago, Shen Yingruo accompanied the fourth princess to study in the palace. Because of her intelligence and cleverness, she was loved by Emperor Youning and was given the title of County Princess. Things got better.
The Kangwang Mansion and Shen Xihe not only have a murderous feud, but also a hatred for the murder of their mother!
"Princess's Mansion." Shen Xihe didn't like crowds, "Ask more people to buy some flowers, plants and trees."
"Yes." Biyu stepped back to make arrangements.
Shen Xihe was a little tired, and took a nap for half an hour with Hongyu's help. As soon as he woke up, Hongyu told him that Xie Yunhuai was here.
In half a month, Xie Yunhuai figured out some tricks, but he couldn't be sure without practice. However, there was only one bone-removing pill, and he certainly couldn't just find someone to test it on. When Xie Yunhuai heard that Shen Xihe had arrived, he went to ask for instructions.
"I'll tell you how to take it myself." Shen Xihe's expression was calm.
"Princess, please think twice." Xie Yunhuai did not agree with Shen Xihe testing the medicine on himself.
"There is only one pill of this medicine, and I only have three to five years to live, so I might as well give it a try." Shen Xihe insisted.
"Although this medicine is harmless, it can cause excessive heat and dryness. I suggest using snow water to induce the medicine." Xie Yunhuai knew that he could not persuade Shen Xihe, so he said after careful consideration, "One cup of snow water and half a penny of bone-removing pill. The princess should take it once first. I will check the princess' pulse for a few days and then make a final conclusion."
The bone-removing pill contains a large amount of tonic medicine. Although the formula of the white-headed old man is exquisite, Shen Xihe is a woman with a cold body and weak body. Xie Yunhuai is extremely reserved. Half a penny is already the minimum dosage to ensure the efficacy of the medicine, and it is still completely in accordance with the standard for children.
