Yun Shang turned to look at the door, and saw the seventh prince enter the room, followed by the pale faced Hua Yutong. Yun Shang frowned, and Lady Hua Guo said, "It's windy outside today, I'm afraid it's a little cold. I've asked the maid to make ginger soup for you. Yutong, fetch a bowl of soup for the seventh prince to warm him up."
Stunned for a while, Yutong nodded and left with her maids.
Lady Hua Guo asked a maid to move a chair for the seventh prince, and asked him to sit down. Yun Shang sat quietly on the chair next to him. Lady Hua Guo looked at the seventh prince indifferently and pondered for a while before saying, "It should have been his majesty and the empress who ask the questions. But his majesty and the empress are too busy everyday. I'm afraid they don't have time to ask the questions. Would you mind me asking you the questions as a senior to you?"
The seventh prince seemed surprised. He didn't look at her, but turned to Yun Shang. He thought for a while and said, "Go ahead, your ladyship."
Lady Hua Guo smiled, touched the Buddha in her hand, and said gently, "I've heard that Yutong and you haven't slept together yet since you got married?"
Yun Shang lowered her head and raised her eyebrows. She smiled as she thought to herself, 'Your ladyship, you are so smart.'
"Since I fainted in the wedding hall, my health has been not very good. I have summoned doctors to recuperate at home these days. It's still a little difficult to do that." The seventh prince's voice sounded low. No matter who he was, he would be embarrassed if he had to say that in front of others.
"Really?" Lady Hua Guo paused and turned to Yun Shang, "Shang'er, you are good at medicine. Do you have any idea how to cure the seventh prince?"
Yun Shang almost laughed out. After a while, she raised her head and thought for a while, "I think you can try nourishing food. I remembered that I've read in the book that stewing caterpillar fungus together with pork bone or mutton bone is effective. But I don't know whether it really works."
"It's not bad to have a try. Write down a prescription and give it to Yutong. Then she can cook it at home for the seventh prince." Said Lady Hua Guo indifferently.
Yun Shang noticed that the seventh prince's face flushed, but his eyes were full of anger. She said with a smile, "That's good. His majesty always thinks that there only a few royal sons. The Crown Prince died, only leaving his little son. Both Prince Rui and the seventh prince married late. Prince Qi had many concubines, but had no children. The seventh Prince is in his prime of life. If he takes good care of himself, he could many children soon."
The seventh prince fixed his eyes on Yun Shang's belly and frowned. He seemed to be thinking about something.
Yun Shang knew her words had hit him hard, so she just smiled and said nothing. After a while, it was quiet in the room. Hua Yutong came in with
rived, Lady Hua Guo had already rested, and the maid was surprised to see Yun Shang. "Her ladyship has just taken a rest. If your highness have something important to tell her, I'll talk to her right away."
Yun Shang waved her hands, smiled and said, "No big deal. It's just my silk handkerchief is missing. I thought it might be left in the room. I'll have a look."
Yun Shang then went into the outer hall. Not paying attention to the maid standing by the door, Yun Shang casually threw the brocade handkerchief on the ground. Qin Yi quickly picked it up and said, "Your Highness, it is really here."
"Good." Yun Shang replied, "Luckily, we found it." Then she walked out of the yard with Qin Yi.
Qian Zhuo had been waiting at the door. Seeing her nodding, Yun Shang walked out.
The carriage driver was still waiting there. Qian Zhuo went up in a hurry and opened the curtain. Qin Yi helped Yun Shang get on the carriage.
"Let's go back." Qian Zhuo and Qin Yi also followed Yun Shang into the carriage. Qian Zhuo ordered gently and got into the carriage.
The carriage moved. Yun Shang said gently, "I wonder if his highness had been back in the mansion."
Qin Yi smiled, "His highness never comes back too late. And he only pays a visit to the general today."
"You know his highness likes about battle so much. He forgets everything once he goes to war. It's possible that he could lost track of the time if he talks battle things with the general." Yun Shang smiled. The sound was soft, but the ears and eyes were full of vigilance.
The three of them chatted casually for a while. Then Yun Shang suddenly said, "I haven't been to Qianshui Pavilion for a long time. I don't know if it's open during the holiday. Let's go and have a look, shall we?"
Qian Ying didn't know why Yun Shang said so, but she also nodded and opened the curtain. The carriage driver was close to the curtain. Yun Shang sneered, "Go to the Qianshui Pavilion."
