The setting sun is like blood, shining on the remnant snow in Baling City, it has a desolate taste.

On the easternmost side of Baling City, the towering royal palace city is a holy place that countless people yearn for, and it is also a canary cage that countless people want to escape from.

For today's Shang Qingdai and Du Ruo, it is a cage on earth that they don't want to get close to or even bother to get close to.

However, the emperor's order is hard to disobey, since His Majesty has issued a verbal order, no one can shirk today's banquet.

Deep palace, quiet.

The Longevity Palace is the residence of the current Empress Dowager.

Empress Dowager Bai is the younger sister of Prime Minister Bai Lang, and also the queen of the late emperor.He had a son in his early years, but unfortunately died young.Therefore, the first emperor gave her the son of the late Concubine Chen Gui, the current King Yan Yunshen of the Song Dynasty, but appointed Li Meiren's son Yan Yunhua as the crown prince, and quietly poisoned Li Meiren in an accident.

When the imperial power changed, it was calm on the surface, but in fact it was still stained with blood.

Yan Yunhua knew the cause of his biological mother's death, but the queen mother did not participate in the murder of Li Meiren, she was gentle by nature, except for occasionally obstinately ordering him to abide by the ancestral system, there was no other place to interfere with the monarchy, so Yan Yunhua treated the queen mother well. It is filial piety.

But the women in the palace were never innocent people, so at the same time Yan Yunhua was setting up a palace banquet in the main hall, Prime Minister Bai Lang had quietly entered the palace and came to the Longevity Palace.

The Empress Dowager Bai ordered someone to serve Bai Lang a cup of tea, and then sent the maids and maids away.

"In the past few days, Your Majesty has gotten closer to the two sisters of the Qi family in the Imperial Hospital, which seems to have some effect." The Queen Mother Bai waited for Bai Lang to sit down, and then said, "The draft will be held in August this year, I'm afraid it will be a little late .”

Bai Lang said: "Sister, you can rest assured that all the beauties in the palace are from my side. Just wait for Rushang to be selected in the August draft, then this day is destined to change."

"This kid may be suspicious. Since he came to the throne, none of the women in the harem have become pregnant, and their bones occasionally feel uncomfortable. Are these things too obvious?" The Queen Mother frowned worriedly, "Aijia I don't want this kid's wings to become stiff, so he can sit firmly on the dragon chair."

"Ah, I used all precautions back then, but I didn't guard against that beauty Li. She didn't know what kind of pillow wind was blown by the late emperor, so the late emperor gave her son the crown prince." Whenever Bai Lang mentioned this matter, he always I feel remorseful. At that time, people's popularity and ministers' hearts were all towards Yan Yunshen. Why did the late emperor suddenly come here?

"Perhaps the first emperor felt that Shen'er was too benevolent and not like an emperor. In all fairness, that boy Yunhua's decisiveness in killing and attacking is quite domineering. Unfortunately, he is an unruly wolf cub, and it is too dangerous to stay by his side." After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she sighed heavily, "It's just a pity for that child Rushang."

Bai Lang shook his head and said: "Only when the sky changes, the Bai family can continue to be prominent in Dayan. She has understood this truth since she was a child."

The Empress Dowager Bai nodded with satisfaction, "In the past few months, the Ai family will keep an eye on the harem more, lest that kid secretly hide the dragon seed on some court lady."

Bai Lang nodded and took a sip of hot tea, "Actually, what I'm most worried about is the Spiritual Shuyuan."

"how do I say this?"

"Your Majesty has been admiring Shang Qingdai recently, and he has the intention of choosing this person to be a concubine in the palace." After speaking, Bai Lang sighed again, "This woman is very skilled in medicine, if she enters the palace, I'm afraid it will be a change ah!"

"The post in the harem is now vacant. If he wants to call his concubine into the palace, he has to go through the barrier of Aijia, so brother don't have to worry." The Queen Mother finished calmly, and took a sip of tea leisurely, "But Aijia is careful. Think about it, Shang Qingdai is a variable outside the palace, with the power of Lingshu Academy, it is easy to hide a pregnant daughter."

When he saw the Queen Mother give him a wink, Bai Lang nodded knowingly, "Brother knows how to do this, sister can rest assured, didn't he invite them to a banquet today, it's a good opportunity to make a move."

"The Son of Heaven misbehaved and persecuted the female merchant Qingdai to commit suicide in a well. Heh, if there are such rumors and rumors, it will be good for the overall situation." The Queen Mother Bai reminded Bai Lang again.

Bai Lang smiled knowingly, and respectfully bowed to the Queen Mother, "The old minister resigns."

The cool breeze blows slowly, chilling the heart.

Although the imperial palace is majestic, it is so cold that there is no warmth at all. Even if there are faint palace lanterns at this time, those meager lights can't cover up the ubiquitous chill of this imperial palace.

Emperor Dayan personally held a banquet to reward folk doctors, which was the first time in the Dayan Dynasty.Some discerning people have already seen that the emperor's thoughts are not only on attracting the hearts of the people, but also on the two beautiful daughters of two medical families.

Du Ruo was currently wearing the student clothes of the Lingshu Academy, and the water-blue robe was slightly swaying under the night wind. The thin figure walked on the solemn palace road, and occasionally looked back at the staggering master with concern.

Today, after they treated those private prostitutes, a carriage came from the palace and brought them into the palace together.

Naturally, in front of others, the master is still the one who annoyed Du Ruo, so Shang Qingdai only let Chen Shuisu support her, walking at the end.

There has been no good banquet since ancient times, if the emperor ordered them to stay today, what would they do?

Shang Qingdai's face was frosty, but her heart was in chaos.

"Miss Shang, please stay."

Suddenly, King Song's voice sounded behind him, and he came over with a smile, and waved his hand to push back Gong'e who was leading the way, "This king will take them to the main hall personally, you all retreat."

"Yes." Gong'e saluted, but glanced hesitantly at the guiding palace lantern in her hand.

Yan Yunshen took the opportunity, and Gong'e retreated.

"Why is Your Highness here?" Shang Qingdai was a little surprised.

Yan Yunshen held up the lamp to shine in front of Shang Qingdai, and said with a smile: "This king is here to guide the way, everyone should be more at ease."

"Huh?" Knowing that he must have something to say, Shang Qingdai said to Chen Shuisu, "Shuisu, wait for me in front."

Yan Yun smiled knowingly, and said in a low voice: "Today, I have taken care of my mother and I will see you at the banquet later. Brother Huang will not keep you, so Miss Shang can rest assured."

Shang Qingdai looked at him blankly: "Why do you want to help us?"

Yan Yun smiled softly, and said: "You should not belong here, you and Xiao Ruo have medical skills that should be used on the common people, besides, this king really regards you as a friend."

"Thank you, today's kindness, in the future..."

"Shh, you know that Chang'er is too weak, and the king will need you to take care of Chang'er in the future." After finishing speaking, Yan Yun smiled deeply, and said, "Actually, this king is also in the Help yourself."

Shang Qingdai nodded silently, finally letting go of the big stone in her heart.

It has long been heard that this Empress Dowager is the most respectful of the ancestral system, if she could come today, Yan Yunhua would not dare to force them to stay.

Sure enough, as King Song said, although the emperor persuaded him to drink a few more drinks for today's banquet, because the queen mother was present, Yan Yunhua had no reason to force them to stay.

So, after drinking for three rounds, it was the Empress Dowager who ordered the guests to be sent out of the palace first.

Outside the palace gate, the carriage of Lingshuyuan has been waiting for a long time, Qi Xiangniang got into the carriage first, Shang Dongru glanced at Shang Qingdai who had no intention of getting into the carriage, "Qingdai, we should go back."

"If we don't live together, how can we share the car?" Shang Qingdai replied coldly, "Aman, give me the horse, and I will ride back by myself."

"Miss, your feet..." Aman looked at Shang Dongru in embarrassment.

"Untie the horse." Shang Qingdai said it again, her face was colder than anything else.

"Aman, you just do what she said, alas." Shang Dongru really had a headache. Thinking about Xu's death back then, he has no regrets. Is there any man in the world who can tolerate his wife's betrayal?What he couldn't bear was that the one he lost was a woman.

Aman swiftly untied one of the horses, and handed the reins to Shang Qingdai, "Miss, you are still injured, be careful."

Shang Qingdai took it coldly, stepped on the stirrup reluctantly and got on the horse, reined in the horse and turned around, not wanting to take another look at that chilling father.

"Drive!" Aman finally drove away gradually, Shang Qingdai only felt that something in his heart was finally broken into powder.

Afterwards, the anxiety in Du Rufeng and his wife's heart calmed down a little. Chen Zhong stood nostalgicly outside the palace gate, and said with emotion: "If I had worked harder back then, maybe I would have been able to stay here for a long time." , he looked at Chen Shuisu seriously, "Shuisu, you have to study hard."

"For today's delicious food, I will definitely work hard in the future!" Chen Shuisu nodded heavily, "Xiao Ruo, from now on you have to keep an eye on my review... Xiao..."

Du Ruo had already walked to Master's horse, "Master, I want to give you a ride, okay?"

Shang Qingdai's refusal words came to her lips, but she found that facing Du Ruo, she could no longer refuse as coldly as before, and she was even more reluctant to refuse.

Mo said earnestly and earnestly: "Master Shang, Ruo'er is still young after all, and sometimes acts recklessly, please forgive me."

"I'm not really annoyed with her today..." Shang Qingdai explained, but sighed lightly, and stopped talking.

Why explain?

Mo nodded and smiled, "Master Shang's intentions, our husband and wife both understand, my girl is not good at talking, since she has this heart, you can let Ruo'er take you for a while."

"That's all." Shang Qingdai handed the reins to Du Ruo, "Ah Ruo, just send me through this royal street."

"En!" Du Ruo nodded, turned around and smiled gratefully at Mo Shi, "Thank you, mother!"

Mo said with a gentle smile: "Silly boy, thank you, Mrs. Shang, thanks to her for blocking several glasses of wine for you today."

"En!" Du Ruo nodded again.

Mo said with a smile: "Mother in Dongcheng, don't worry, I will wait for you at the entrance of Xicheng with your father and go home together."

"it is good!"

Watching his parents go away, Du Ruo raised his head with a smile and asked softly: "Master, do you feel dizzy now?"

Shang Qingdai was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"

Du Ruo took out a package of things from his bosom, and presented it to Shang Qingdai, "Master, would you like one?"
