After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

After Wei Changyi left, Liu Yunxiang helped Yan Mu lie back on the bed.

"The killer last night was Zhu Qingjia. It seems that Shangguan Xu is eager to kill you."

Yan Mu nodded, "But obviously he has missed the best opportunity."

The emperor did not kill him, which made Shangguan Xu panic, so he sent Zhu Qingjia that night, but unfortunately he failed. After that, he had to be careful, because the emperor did not kill Yan Mu, which was equivalent to allowing him to live. How could Shangguan Xu not guess the emperor's thoughts? If he took any action, he would be disobeying the holy will.

Moreover, Yan Mu is the king of Zhenbei. Although Qin Feishi currently controls the military power of Zhenbei, the soldiers of Zhenbei only obey Yan Mu's orders, so Qin Feishi is temporarily ignored.

Their plan to use Zhenbei's military power to seize the throne cannot be accomplished now.

Shangguan Xu has been planning for a long time, so naturally he is not willing to give in, and will definitely think of ways to deal with Yan Mu.

"Wei Changyi mentioned Zhou Lihuai's matter when he left. He should be hinting to us that the poisoning of Mrs. Wuchanghou was not done by them through Zhou Lihuai's hand." Liu Yunxiang said, although they still don't know the murder of Mrs. Wuchanghou. What secret is hidden?

"In addition to Shangguan Xu's party, there is a force in the DPRK." Yan Mu said.

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "This is probably what Wei Changyi means."

In the next few days, the palace became quiet. There was no summons from the palace, there was no movement from Shangguan Xu and the Queen, and no one came to visit. It was as calm as a stone thrown into the water. The stone fell, but the water surface was calm and calm.

However, the court was not very calm. The third prince returned to the capital, and the fourth prince also came out of Shan Nian Camp. When the emperor went to court, he mentioned that his two sons shed tears of their old father.

The crimes committed by the third and fourth princes before could even be sentenced to prison, but the emperor's cry wiped them all away.

However, the emperor did not mention the seventh prince. Perhaps he was struggling with it himself, so his attitude was not clear.

The days fly by quickly, and in a blink of an eye, summer is getting hotter.

On this day, under the shade of the trees in the courtyard, Yan Mu was leaning on a lounge chair beside the bamboo, with Xingyi on his left and Yan'er on his right. The three of them didn't feel too hot. Xing Yi chatted with Yan Mu about the fun things that happened in Zhenbei. Yan'er was practicing calligraphy, and Yan Mu corrected him from time to time.

Liu Yunxiang saw that Yan Mu had been recovering from his injuries and staring at the top of the bed in a daze every day. He was afraid that Yan Mu would go crazy like he did in Beijin, so he asked him to take care of the child. He originally refused and looked cold, but he couldn't bear the two children pestering him to the point where he couldn't do anything.

"I have to go out." Liu Yunxiang brought Zijin out. "A batch of grain has been shipped from the grain store. I'll go make arrangements."

Yan Mu raised his eyelids and glanced at her, "You don't need to tell me."

"Yes." Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Just like when a husband goes out, if he gives an explanation, the wife will feel very considerate, right?"

Yan Mu blushed, "You..."

"Kidding."

After Liu Yunxiang finished speaking, he quickly slipped out of the door without waiting for Yan Mu to say anything else.

Even though he had lost his memory, Liu Yunxiang could still feel that Yan Mu was thinking deeply, so he teased him just now to keep him from being too bored.

When they arrived at Lingyun Grain Store, Zhang Qi was looking at the account book. When he saw her coming, he pushed the account book to her.

"All the [-] shi of grain raised by our grain store have been handed over to the imperial court. However, due to the recent famine in the south, other people who were not affected by the disaster are saving grain. The grain stores below us are almost all sold out. Although it was shipped from the west I bought a batch of grain, but it’s really not enough.” Zhang Qi said.

Their Lingyun is the largest food store. If the largest food store runs out of food, it will inevitably cause panic.

Liu Yunxiang glanced at the account book and said, "You will send a grain transport team to Zhenbei to transport grain."

Zhang Qi was a little worried, "Now that Zhenbei is under the jurisdiction of King Anqing, I'm afraid we won't be able to transport food."

Although King Anqing and the emperor, Zhenbei and the court made peace on the surface, there was still a hurdle between them.

"Just send someone, I will arrange the other things."

"it is good."

"Since there is no more food, the food store should be closed and a sold out sign should be hung outside."

"Will this cause panic?"

Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes, "We just want to use this panic to provoke conflicts between the court and Prince Anqing."

Of course, if Qin Feishi was smart enough, he would let Lingyun successfully transport the food from Zhenbei.

Seeing Liu Yunxiang was about to leave, Zhang Qi slapped his forehead and remembered something, "My boss, there is a little beggar looking for you."

"Little beggar?" Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, he said he came from the north and has something very important to do with you."

"What about people?"

"I saw that he was very hungry, so I asked the kitchen to make her a bowl of noodles." Zhang Qi led Liu Yunxiang to the backyard. "One bowl was not enough, so the kitchen made another bowl for her."

Walking into the courtyard, Zhang Qi saw that there was only an empty bowl left beside the stone table, but no one was there.

"Huh, what about people?"

Zhang Qi looked around and saw no one. She asked the kitchen again, and the kitchen said no one was there.

"The kid left without saying a word."

Liu Yunxiang looked around and told Zhang Qi: "He might come again. Then you can have someone go to the palace to tell me."

"it is good.

When she returned to the palace, it was lunch time. When she came to Liuyue Pavilion, she saw that Yan Mu and the two children had already eaten, and Yuan Qingyue was standing beside them.

"Your Highness, these are the shrimp dumplings I made. Please try them."

"Young prince, if you eat two more pieces of pork ribs, you will grow taller."

"Little miss, this lotus root porridge is soft, glutinous and sweet. I'll serve you a bowl."

Yuan Qingyue was busy around the dining table, squeezing Jin Yan to the back. She served three of them by herself.

Yan Mu and the two children ate deliciously and didn't feel anything was wrong.

Liu Yunxiang walked in and smiled lightly, "It seems that I came back late and missed dinner."

Hearing this, several people looked towards her.

Yan Mu glanced at her and continued to eat his own. The two children looked at each other and called her to come and eat together.

"We thought Mom would eat out."

"We waited for a long time, and we only ate when we were hungry."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, walked over and sat down at Yan Mu's seat, and then looked at Yuan Qingyue, "Why bother Concubine Yuan so much?"

Yuan Qingyue still smiled brightly, "It is my duty to take care of Your Highness."

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Then please trouble Concubine Yuan to serve a bowl of rice to this princess. It is also your duty as a concubine to serve the concubine."

Yuan Qingyue's smile faded a little, "It's not my duty. Since the princess asks for food, I might as well give you a bowl."

"Three points full."

"so?"

"too much."

Yuan Qingyue's smile faded a little, and she could only eat a little rice, "What about these?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Less."

"Princess, I respect you, so please don't mess with me."

"If you can't do the job of serving people well, you'll have to do less of it in the future. We have no shortage of slaves and maids."

"you!"

Liu Yunxiang looked at Yan Mu and narrowed his eyes, "Are the shrimp dumplings delicious?"

Yan Mu pushed the shrimp dumpling on the plate away, "I haven't eaten it yet."

"Try it, after all, it is Concubine Yuan's wish."

Yan Mu glanced at Liu Yunxiang, shook his head and said, "No, I'm full."

After saying that, Yan Mu got up and went back to the west room.

Yuan Qingyue's eyes were red, but she still managed to smile, "Princess, this lotus root porridge is cooked well. Let me serve you a bowl."

Yuan Qingyue filled a bowl and sent it over. Liu Yunxiang hesitated for a moment and reached out to take it. However, the next moment Yuan Qingyue turned the bowl over and the porridge spilled onto the back of her hand.

"Ah! It's so hot!"

Liu Yunxiang was startled and asked Jin Yan to wipe her with a handkerchief.

"Princess, why have I offended you? Do you want to harm me like this?"

Yuan Qingyue looked at Liu Yunxiang, with a look of injustice and humiliation on her face, but with a sinister look in her eyes.
