Ministry of Industry Shangshufu
The Minister of the Ministry of Industry returned to the central government from the residence of the Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry also happened to be back from the hospital.
The two of them sat in the room and retreated.
The Minister of Industry asked: "Have you received any news from the Madam of the Taiyuan Hospital?"
Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry shook her head: "I didn't get any news, but I asked the maid to talk to the maid of the wife of the Imperial Palace. I found out that Yuan Zheng of the Taiyuan Hospital often goes out at night recently."
The Minister of Industry's eyes flashed, and he tapped his finger lightly: "Look, the emperor is indeed seriously ill!"
Only when the emperor is seriously ill will he not see anyone.
Or the emperor can’t even meet people!
Thinking of this, the Minister of Industry was shocked.
He stood up and hurried to the study.
You have to tell the third prince about this and ask him to come back as soon as possible.
This is probably going to change!

On the winding mountain road, under the scorching sun, several carriages were walking at a neither fast nor slow speed.
It is the dog days of summer, the hottest time of the year.
Nuan Nuan sat on Nalan Jinnian's lap, leaning against the thick quilt. It was so hot!
Even though Chen Huan and Nalan Jinnian kept fanning her, she was still so hot that her clothes were wet all the time.
There is no way, pregnant women are more afraid of heat.
"No, I have to sit up! It's too hot to lean on!" Wen Nuan said unbearably while leaning on the quilt.
Nalan Jinnian quickly put away the fan and reached out to help her sit up straight.
Nuan Nuan looked at Nalan Jinnian and said with an aggrieved look, "Can I sit by myself? Your body is like a stove!"
Opposite him, Chen Huan quickly fanned himself faster.
Nalan Jinnian reached out and pushed Wen Nuan's slightly sweaty hair behind his ears, and whispered: "If you bear with it any longer, we will be walking by water soon!"
Hearing this, Nuan Nuan had a dying expression on her face. Her body softened and she leaned directly on his shoulder, wailing: "Ah~, aren't you hot?"
Never has Nuan Nuan shown such a collapsed expression!
Nalan Jinnian was both funny and distressed: "Good boy, we'll be at the dock soon! Just bear with me!"
He opened the folding fan with a click and continued to fan her.
Nuan Nuan soon faced the reality. She waved her hand to Chen Huan: "Chen Huan, you don't have to fan me. You can take a rest!"
Nuan Nuan glanced outside, just looking forward to getting to the dock soon.
Fortunately, the whole journey is not by land and can be taken by water. Otherwise, she would probably be roasted like a fat pig by the time she reaches the capital!
After all, she was more than seven months pregnant and had gained thirty kilograms!
It's already more than 120 pounds, and it's going straight to 130 pounds!
When it was getting dark, the group finally arrived near the pier.
Nalan Jinnian helped Nuan Nuan out of the carriage.
The Queen Mother and others also got out of the carriage.
The wind blows from the river, mixed with the unique smell of river water.
Wen Nuan felt a lot more relaxed instantly and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
She looked into the distance. Between the green mountains on both sides of the bank, black gold was sinking to the west. The afterglow of the setting sun filled the river, half of the river was rustling and half of the river was red.
Ships were moored on the riverside one by one. Under the golden sunshine, black figures were moving, making it look prosperous.
"It's so beautiful and comfortable!" Nuan Nuan couldn't help but sigh.
The Queen Mother couldn't stand the heat either, so she breathed a sigh of relief: "The carriage is too hot, the wind here is great! The scenery is also great!"
"Let's go on the boat." Nalan Jinnian supported Wen Nuan, and then said to the maid next to the Queen Mother: "Help Madam."
The group of people walked towards the pier, which was crowded with tourists.
The ship Xia Xuan had already prepared ahead of time. In order not to attract attention and keep a low profile when entering Beijing, it was just a merchant ship, the Liu family's ship.
It was Liu Xiaoen who happened to have a batch of medicinal materials delivered here and then sent to the border.
Nalan Jinnian asked Xia Xuan to arrange for him to return to Beijing on the Liu family's boat.
Several people walked to the boat arranged by Xia Xuan.
When Liu Xiaoen saw them getting off the boat immediately, he saluted respectfully: "Madam, Master Seventeen, Young Madam, you are so polite! The boat is ready! Please Madam, Master, Young Madam, get on the boat!"
Nalan Jinnian nodded.
Several people boarded the Liu family's ship.
Liu Xiaoen got on the boat at the end, and then said to the boatman on the boat: "It's time to sail."
On the boat, Liu Xiaoen stepped forward to lead the way for a few people. He said respectfully: "Madam, Master Seventeen, dinner is ready. Do you want to have a meal?"
Liu Xiaoen's attitude is respectful, but not overly flattering. This neither humble nor overbearing attitude makes people comfortable to get along with.
The Queen Mother said: "Eat first."
Nalan Jinnian also nodded.
I have been traveling day and night these past few days. Every meal I buy is some food in some towns, and then I eat while traveling.
But the weather was so hot that I had no appetite for Nuan Nuan, and I lost a lot of weight.
Nuan Nuan added: "Just eat outside! It's too hot in the cabin!"
She couldn't bear to be with Qingfeng!
Liu Xiaoen smiled and said: "The sun has not set yet, and the river breeze is still a bit hot. The grassroots have prepared ice cubes in the cabin. It is much cooler than here."
Wen Nuan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Then let's eat inside!"
She felt like she was suffering from heatstroke if she didn't cool down!
When Nalan Jinnian heard this, he glanced at him: "Thank you, Mr. Liu!"
Liu Xiaoen was flattered: "Master Qi is so polite!"
Several people entered the cabin and just took their seats when they heard a scream from outside: "Killing!"
Then there was a chaotic scream: "Ah!"
"Dead man!"
"Ah, murder! Help!"
... ..
Chen Huan and Chen Xi quickly grasped the hilt of the sword.
The guards on the ship also instantly entered a state of preparation for war.
At this time, a boatman came in: "Sir, there was a murder and the murderer escaped. No boats are allowed to leave now."
Liu Xiaoen was shocked and said quickly: "Seventeenth Master, let the common people go out and take a look."
Nalan Jinnian frowned, nodded, and then glanced at Chen Huan again: "Go and have a look."
Chen Huan immediately nodded: "Yes!"
Nalan Jinnian said to the Queen Mother: "Mother, please have a meal!"
Nalan Jinnian took a chicken wing to the Queen Mother, and then held another one to warm it.
The Queen Mother nodded: "Yes, Nuannuan, eat quickly and eat more. Look at you, you have lost weight in the past few days!"
When a murder occurs, it is normal for the government to seize the ship and inspect it to find the murderer.
But as long as their ship takes out the token, it will naturally not be detained!
The Queen Mother was not worried at all.
She put Nalan Jinnian's chicken wings in the bowl to herself and gave them to Nuan Nuan: "Nuan Nuan, you like chicken wings, eat more!"
Wen Nuan hurriedly said: "I already have one, mother, please eat it!"
"It's okay. Mother doesn't like chicken wings. I'll eat some fish and you eat some fish too. The fish looks fresh. Seventeen, give Nuan Nuan some more fish and some meat..."
