A concubine's daughter is reborn and I want to enter the palace!

Shi Zi was worried and wanted to follow, but he was entangled by Liu'er again.

Liu Er quickly stopped Persimmon and said, "Hey, Sister Persimmon, where are you going? Didn't the young master say that we can't follow him? You fight so well, teach me other tricks!"

On the other side, inside the house.

Zuo Wenyi first settled Ling Xiangxiang down and asked her to sit down, then she went to boil the medicine.

After walking for a while, Ling Xiangxiang felt bored, so she went to the small kitchen to see her to see if she was almost done.

Ling Xiangxiang asked, "Are you still not done? It's too boring for me to be alone?"

Zuo Wenyi heard Ling Xiangxiang coming over, turned around and said, "It will be ready soon, just wait a moment!"

Ling Xiangxiang pouted, "Well, actually, it would be better to ask the palace maids to do this kind of thing. Why do you have to do it yourself?"

Zuo Wenyi explained, "Didn't I tell you that we are the emperor's concubines? For things like irregular menstruation, the fewer people who know about it, the better. Otherwise, it will only lead to bad things."

"Only you and I know about this matter. I won't even reveal a word to my personal maid Liu'er. And as for the persimmon next to you, it's better not to tell anyone!" Zuo Wenyi said meaningfully.

Ling Xiangxiang said perfunctorily, "Okay, okay, I understand..."

Looking at Zuo Wenyi's busy back, Ling Xiangxiang couldn't help but ask, "But why are you so nice to me?"

Zuo Wenyi put a towel under the casserole and said, "Xiangxiang, have you forgotten? If you hadn't rescued me when I gave birth that day, how could I be here now with my son?"

"Don't think I won't say it, but I will always remember your life-saving grace in my heart."

Ling Xiangxiang smiled a little embarrassedly. "Haha, I forgot all these things, but you still remember them! In fact, it's not as exaggerated as you said~"

Zuo Wenyi took Ling Xiangxiang's hand and said seriously, "Yes! I have never known how to repay you. Being too polite would seem strange. I will just boil medicine for you today and do my best."

Ling Xiangxiang said, "Oh, you don't have to do this."

Zuo Wenyi let go of Ling Xiangxiang's hand, took out a medicine bowl, and poured the medicine in the casserole medicine pot that had been there for a while into it.

He said to Ling Xiangxiang, "This medicine has just been left to dry, so it shouldn't be so hot anymore. Drink it while it's hot, or else it will get cold and smell fishy."

Ling Xiangxiang nodded and said "OK" and then took the medicine bowl.

Zuo Wenyi stared at the medicine in Ling Xiangxiang's hand, wanting to watch her drink it with her own eyes. Unexpectedly, as soon as Ling Xiangxiang's medicine bowl reached her mouth, she said again, "So after I drank this medicine, my period came, right?"

Zuo Wenyi quickly confirmed, "Yes, this is not something else, it is motherwort, which can promote blood circulation and regulate menstruation. If you don't believe me, you can go ask the imperial physician."

Ling Xiangxiang shook her head and said, "No need, I believe you." As she said that, she raised her head and was about to drink.

At this critical moment, Persimmon suddenly pushed open the door and rushed in!

Shouting "My Lord, wait a minute!"

Liu Er followed closely behind her and said, "Sister Persimmon, why are you running? I haven't learned it yet. Didn't the young lady say that we can't follow her? Wait for me!"

Ling Xiangxiang was startled by Shizi's sudden shout, and the medicine bowl in her hand fell to the ground, spilling all over the floor.

"Persimmon, why are you here?" Ling Xiangxiang asked

Before Persimmon could answer, Zuo Wenyi scolded him with an unhappy look on his face, "Who let you in? Didn't I tell you not to follow me? How come you don't know any rules!"

Then he glared at Liu'er, implying that she was not doing her job well.

Liu Er explained aggrievedly, "Who knows what kind of hysteria Sister Persimmon has. She was teaching me well, but suddenly she ran away. I hurriedly chased after her..."

Persimmon glanced at the medicine on the ground and answered with a heavy breath, "Your servant, your servant wants to ask, my lady, are we still going to Yufangzhai to visit Concubine Yu? If we don't go now, it will be too late!"

Zuo Wenyi was furious and gnashed his teeth, "Didn't you see your mistress coming to my place just now? Why are you going to Yufangzhai today? Don't you have any brains at all!"

Ling Xiangxiang said, "Okay, don't say that about Persimmon! Ignorance is not a crime. She doesn't know whether she's going or not. She thinks it's getting late, so it's normal for her to ask me."

Zuo Wenyi suppressed her anger and forced a smile, "Okay, but you, a palace maid, didn't even inform me before entering the house. Look, the nourishing medicine has been spilled..."

Ling Xiangxiang glanced at the medicine on the ground and said, "I'm really sorry, it's still a little hot and I didn't hold it firmly. I'll make it up to you with something good some other day."

Zuo Wenyi smiled flatteringly and said, "No need! No need! Why should we be polite to each other, sisters? It's spilled, so it's spilled. When you come tomorrow, I'll make more for you~"

Seeing Zuo Wenyi's tone become much kinder, Ling Xiangxiang responded, "Okay, thank you very much."

Persimmon thought for a moment and made up a lie, "My lady, it's getting late. Let's go quickly. I heard that you are going to Yufangzhai today. When I went to the imperial kitchen this morning, I ran into Haitang who was beside Concubine Yu. I casually said to her, maybe Concubine Yu is still waiting for you!"

Ling Xiangxiang said, "You are a quick-witted girl! Okay, let's go."

Persimmon smiled and said, "Yes, my lord!"

Ling Xiangxiang said to Zuo Wenyi, "Let's go first. I'll come see you tomorrow."

Zuo Wenyi was afraid of alerting the enemy, so she walked to Ling Xiangxiang with a smile and said, "Okay, then go!" She then whispered, "Don't forget our little secret~"

Ling Xiangxiang nodded and left.

Fenghua Palace

Beatrice reported all the news she had obtained in recent days to the Queen.

"Your Majesty, you don't know that the Emperor is planning something big!"

The Queen raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong? Tell me slowly, what is the Emperor planning to do?"

After closing the doors and windows, Beatrice whispered, "The emperor is now sending people everywhere to look for babies who died at birth. I'm afraid he might be...trying to replace the prince with a cat!"

The queen widened her eyes and said, "What?!"

"The Emperor actually protected Song Qingwan and her son to such an extent that he even prepared a substitute for the twins in her belly!"

Beatrice echoed, "Yes, madam. I didn't expect that. It seems that the emperor knew that Concubine Yu would give birth to two identical babies, so he wanted to find a substitute to pretend that one of them died!"

The Queen took a deep breath and said, "I thought that the Emperor was just attracted to Song Qingwan for a while, but I didn't expect him to be so crazy about her!"

Beatrice asked, "Then what should we do, Your Majesty? If Concubine Yu's child is really born, it will definitely block the Second Prince's path in the future!"

The Queen was furious and said, "I will never let them have their wish!"
