After sitting down in the room, Mr. Wei and his wife returned to their seriousness.
After they all sat down, Wen Qingzhu lowered his eyebrows as much as possible, making himself look like the old Wei couple he had just seen.
"Why are you here suddenly? You guys have been teasing me all day long!"
Wei Feng immediately corrected Mrs. Wei: "Grandma, my name is not Jiujiu! My name is Tianbao!"
"I don't care what your name is, I know you keep chirping all day long!" Mrs. Wei turned her eyes away and ignored him.
Wei Feng was a little helpless, but he couldn't dwell too much on these things, so he got down to business.
"Grandma, Qingzhu came here today because I have something to ask you about Mrs. Zheng's identity."
Mr. Wei, who was sitting next to him, slowly turned around and asked attentively: "Why did you ask about this?"
Wen Qingzhu expressed his doubts: "I think Mrs. Zheng is a descendant of the Yue Kingdom?"
Mrs. Wei took a deep breath, straightened her back, and frowned deeply: "Where did you hear this?"
Seeing Mrs. Wei's serious expression, Wen Qingzhu felt that he had guessed correctly.
She hesitated and told Mrs. Wei some recent events.
Finally, he said: "I think it's not that I'm careless, but that they took such a big detour just to deal with Mrs. Zheng. I think it's too strange."
"What a strange method? Mrs. Zheng holds military power, and she is the oldest. Isn't it normal to deal with her?" Mr. Wei put his hands in his sleeves and looked at her deeply.
Wen Qingzhu thought for a moment and continued: "Then why did Mrs. Zheng come back at this time? I have definite news. The emperor has already made arrangements to deal with them. I met the high priest once. He is smart and ruthless. Hot, I think there must be a reason why he treats Mrs. Zheng like this."
Mr. Wei closed his eyes, and Mrs. Wei turned to him and asked: "Old man..."
"Okay, let me tell you, Mrs. Zheng is the general of the surviving family of the Yue Kingdom." Mr. Wei finally revealed the identity of Mrs. Zheng.
When it was over, I breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Qingzhu was not very surprised. Si Lin then asked, "Mrs. Zheng is always strong. How powerful was she when she was young? How powerful is she now?"
"You rescued Xin Zhong, right? Mrs. Zheng knocked him down and is still guarding the northwest. How powerful do you think Mrs. Zheng is?"
When Mrs. Wei said this, her tone was very respectful.
Wen Qingzhu nodded, finally understanding why Jiang Yuansheng was so eager for the Zheng family to recognize Wen Qingfang.
If Mrs. Zheng was here, the last incident where the Yue survivors forced themselves into the palace would never have happened.
After getting the answer he wanted, Wen Qingzhu left the Wei family.
In early November, the soldiers guarding Youzhou reported back that it was snowing in the north and the Hu people were trying to attack the city again.
Prince Ning took the initiative to invite him, but Jiang Yue refused.
Two days later, Jiang Yue sent an imperial edict to the Zhenguo General's Mansion in Dingyuan.
Lu Chengfei felt that something was wrong, so he wrote a letter quietly and sent it to Dingyuan.
A few days later, Jiang Yue was preparing to go to the morning court from the Manlu Palace, but when he reached the entrance of the palace, he fainted.
Luo Fei was so frightened that she quickly ordered people to help him back to the Manlu Palace and summoned the imperial doctor.
The news spread quickly as if it had wings.
Concubine Li, who was sitting in Jingping Palace complaining to Concubine Wei, heard about this and looked at each other with Concubine Wei.
The two of them got up and went to the Manna Hall together.
However, they were stopped by Lu Lei at the palace gate.
"Get out of the way!" Concubine Li looked at Lu Lei coldly, with a rather unkind look in her eyes.
Concubine Wei frowned and looked inside the door: "But Your Majesty is awake?"
Lu Lei hesitated and replied: "Your Majesty hasn't woken up yet, but the High Court Judge has already entered. I am following the orders of Concubine Luo and not to let anyone else in!"
"How outrageous!" Concubine Li turned blue with anger and said angrily, "I am one of the highest-ranking people in this harem besides Your Majesty. You actually obeyed the orders of that bitch Luo Chan and disobeyed me. If so, if something happens to His Majesty, can you afford it?"
"Sorry, empress." Lu Lei still prevented Concubine Li from entering.
Concubine Wei finally lost her temper and asked: "Master Lu, this is not His Majesty's sudden fainting. This has never happened before. I and Concubine Li are also worried. Let's go in and take a look. Just take a look." "
Facing Concubine Wei, Lu Lei's expression relaxed, but he still did not get out of the way: "Concubine Wei, it's not because of my humble position that I won't let you in. This is what your Majesty has told you. In the Ganlu Hall, except for Concubine Luo and His Majesty's orders, No one can be let in."
"Okay! I'll be waiting here! Okay?" Concubine Li waited for Lu Lei fiercely, but although Lu Lei looked apologetic, he still didn't get out of the way.
True to her word, Concubine Li asked the palace servants to bring in chairs and tables, put out tea and snacks, and set up a hibiscus tent, and just looked at the door of the Manlu Palace quietly.
More than half an hour later, the high court judge walked to the door carrying the medicine box.
Concubine Li and Concubine Wei immediately stood up, walked in front of him, and asked quickly: "How is your majesty?"
"Don't worry, ladies and gentlemen. Your Majesty is just infected with the cold, and he hasn't had a good rest recently. He will be fine after taking a few days of medicine and a good rest."
The High Court ruled to appease the two men by avoiding the important and taking the easy.
Concubine Li didn't quite believe it: "Is it really just the cold wind?"
"Don't worry, Concubine Li, your Majesty will wake up within an hour, and then your Majesty will be able to see your Majesty." The High Court Judge said respectfully.
Seeing the imperial doctor repeat this, Concubine Li had no choice but to believe it.
But Concubine Wei next to her noticed something unusual. If it was just the wind and cold, why did she faint for so long
She knows a thing or two about pharmacology.
"Can the High Court judge tell you in detail about His Majesty's condition?" Concubine Wei was different from Concubine Li. Jiang Yue doted on Luo Chan, so she no longer cared.
It's just that at this time, Jiang Yuanhan hasn't grown up yet, and it would be bad if something goes wrong with Jiang Yue's body.
The High Court Judge explained in detail, and after Concubine Wei thanked him, she personally sent the High Court Judge away.
Immediately afterwards, Concubine Wei and Concubine Li said goodbye and left the Ganlu Hall.
Concubine Li was unwilling and continued to stay at the gate of Ganlu Hall.
After returning to Jingping Palace, Concubine Wei asked the palace maid to find a medical book.
After reading it, Concubine Wei frowned.
Jiang Yue is fifty-seven this year. At his age, there are very few emperors who are still in such good health.
But after all, I have reached my age.
It was two days later when Wen Qingzhu got the news.
She sent Wen Mingxuan to Jingping Palace, but was left alone by Concubine Wei.
Sitting in the Nuan Pavilion, Concubine Wei retreated from the servants.
"Qingzhu, I have observed it and you have taught Mingxuan well. From today on, he will stay in the palace with Han'er."
Wen Qingzhu's heart skipped a beat: "Why so fast? Did something happen?"
"His Majesty contracted a cold. I think it's because of his old age. Although the High Court ruled that the illness was concealed, I went to see His Majesty in the past two days and his complexion is not as good as before."
Concubine Wei frowned, and it took her a long time to ask her, "Didn't you give Concubine Luo some medicine?"
"Well, I took Xiji Pills." Wen Qingzhu understood what Concubine Wei meant and had no intention of hiding it.
Concubine Wei opened her mouth, and it took her a long time to react: "Xi Ji Wan!"
Looking left and right, Concubine Wei suddenly laughed: "It turns out to be this thing. No wonder Your Majesty can't control it."
Wen Qingzhu shook his head slightly. He was as ruthless as Jiang Yue, but he still lost his sense of proportion in front of beauty.
After leaving Nuange, Wen Qingzhu got up and went to the eighth prince's residence.
Jiang Yuanhan was very happy, and Wen Qingzhu touched his head: "Did your Highness study well today?"
"Well, sister, don't worry, I've practiced hard." Jiang Yuanhan nodded and asked, "Did sister come to see me specially?"
"Actually, no, I want to see Jasmine." Wen Qingzhu said truthfully.
Although Jiang Yuanhan was a little disappointed, it quickly dissipated.
He pointed to the laundry room and whispered: "My father has been keeping an eye on Sister Jasmine's side. The work is not heavy, but she has not left there for so long, and neither does Aunt Zhang." Let others see her easily."
"Take me over there and have a look." Wen Qingzhu raised his head and looked at the laundry room, his mind becoming heavy.
Jiang Yue has always been on guard against everyone. Among the four maids of the Qianyuan Palace, only Jasmine still worries him.
When they arrived at the door of the laundry room, they were stopped by the maid guarding the door.
"Your Highness, you cannot enter without His Majesty's oral and handwritten instructions."
Jiang Yuanhan turned to look at Wen Qingzhu, you see, this is it.
Wen Qingzhu smiled and took out a purse and handed it to the palace maid: "Can you please call Aunt Zhang out? I am Wen Qingzhu. Aunt Zhang will definitely come out to see me if she finds out."
The palace maid hesitated for a moment, then took the purse: "Okay, you wait."
The palace maid who took the silver turned around and went in.
In less than a quarter of an hour, a nanny wearing a black and purple palace maid's dress arrived at the door.
Her face was wrinkled and her hair was gray, but she was meticulously groomed.
When Aunt Zhang saw her, she asked respectfully: "Miss Wen, did His Majesty ask you to come here?"
"No, your majesty is recovering from illness. I will beg your majesty to release Jasmine in a few days. Can my mother-in-law be kind enough to let me see her?" Wen Qingzhu smiled gently, and his expression was neither humble nor arrogant.
Nanny Zhang squinted her eyes and saw that the smile on Wen Qingzhu's face remained unchanged.
After hesitating for a moment, she finally got out of the way: "Miss Wen, please come inside. To make a long story short, this slave is also following orders."
"Thank you, mama." Wen Qingzhu glanced at her gratefully and walked in quickly.
Once inside, Wen Qingzhu saw several palace maids washing and hanging clothes, but he did not see Jasmine.
At this time, Nanny Zhang came behind her and pointed to the side courtyard to the east: "She lives there alone."
"Thank you, mama." Wen Qingzhu said and quickly arrived at the door of the side courtyard.
At this time, Jasmine had returned to her original appearance and was sitting in the corridor reading a book.
Hearing the movement at the door, he thought it was Granny Zhang coming in, and subconsciously hid his hands behind his back.
After seeing the person clearly, she suddenly froze.
With a bang, the book in his hand fell to the ground.
"Miss!" Jasmine's vision blurred for a moment, and she ran towards the entrance of the courtyard in excitement.
Wen Qingzhu went up to her, caught her, held her in his arms, and comforted her: "It's okay. You can come out after two days of patience."
"Okay, slave, wait." Jasmine laughed and cried at the same time, looking at Wen Qingzhu while stroking her tears.
After looking her over for a while, Jasmine suddenly smiled and said, "It's been so long since I've seen you, Miss. She's changed a lot."
"You have changed a lot. You are now a big girl." Wen Qingzhu looked at Jasmine with very loving eyes.
They are all children who grew up with her, and they will no longer be around her in a short time.
Nanny Zhang stood at the door. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, she reminded: "Miss Wen, the time is up."
Wen Qingzhu reluctantly let go of Jasmine's hand: "Protect yourself well, and we will meet naturally when the time comes."
"Yeah!" Jasmine finally calmed down, returned to her usual calm demeanor, and watched Wen Qingzhu leave.
Back at Jingping Palace, Concubine Wei was not there, but Jiang Dejia was waiting for her.
