Chen Yao held her hand, stood up with a smile, and walked slowly with her.

"How about you teach me how to make tea? Your tea is very popular." She folded a few peach blossoms, placed them under her nose and sniffed them. Then she smiled and said, "I will teach my sister how to make these peach blossoms. It will be so sweet and fragrant when applied to her body."

"What is the lady's scent?" It's extremely light and elegant. " Ye Sujian curiously asked her.

"I have been dealing with herbs all year long, and the smell of the herbs on me is too strong, so I can't hide any of the fragrances, so I used a lighter scent of hibiscus flowers to make the herbs smell better. Mingyue used the Pear Blossom Fragrance that I taught her. She is gentle and elegant, and this Pear Blossom is the most suitable for her. When it is ready, put it in the jar and put it in the cellar. It can be used for one year. " Chen Yao passed the peach blossoms in her hands to Ye Sujian, and said softly: "Little Sister, you're as beautiful as a peach blossom, and the most suitable for the peach blossoms to smell.

"If there comes a day, Su Jian will definitely obey her sister." Jane quickly put on a smiling face with a face full of anticipation.

Chen Yao smiled lightly, folded another peach blossom, and pulled her hand to quicken her pace.

After exiting the garden, he saw Yulixiao seated on a wooden chair in the center of the courtyard.

Qiu Xuanling listened from the side, in her hand was a plate containing all sorts of fresh flowers. Seeing the two of them coming over, she smiled and waved at them, then said crisply: "Sister two, quickly come over. Sister Mingyue said that she wanted us to make the Hundred Blossom Banquet to invite the rich merchants of the city."

"Does Your Highness want to raise military pay?" Chen Yao slightly smiled, her hand naturally resting on Yulixiao's shoulder, standing together with Ye Mingyue on her left and right.

The army that was transporting the food was stopped by Yu Tianqi. Although it was not taken away, it had delayed the journey. With so many soldiers wanting to eat and drink, it was still a headache.

Yulixiao nodded his head, he stood up from the chair, turned and looked at the two, and said indifferently: "Regarding the food, this woman does not meddle. If you have the heart, then helping to make clothes, shoes and socks is already something you have done with all your heart. "

"Your Highness's words are wrong, and this is not meddling in your affairs. We are willing to help Your Highness resolve this problem, but we have put all our effort into doing so." "It's all a matter of family matters, and every man has responsibilities. As long as a woman has the heart, she can be as loyal to the nation as a man." In the blink of an eye, he looked at Ye Mingyue, and then pursed his lips and laughed: "However, Chi Cheng is a simple and unsophisticated commoner, and is not a bustling city, I'm afraid that I can't think of much, and after eating all the fresh flowers, I'm afraid that it won't work, let's think of another way."

Ye Mingyue's face changed slightly. This was her idea, and it was to help Chen Yao with her clothes while she went into the army camp. Yulixiao had won greatly, he did not want to be monopolized by Chen Yao's glory, and he did not want to be filled with glory in the future.

Yu Yan turned her head, she was looking at the fallen leaves on the ground, with one hand on the chair, she kicked away the fallen leaves gently, but pretended that she did not see anything, she did not care.

"Alright, you can all go now." Yulixiao had not looked at Yu Yan the entire time. Only now did he gently wave his hand, and said with a heavy voice. "This king wants some peace and quiet."

The few of them did not dare to annoy him anymore, and they quickly bowed before leaving together.

When Yu Yan stood up, her hair had been caught by a crack in the armrest of her chair. She pulled for a few times, but was unable to pull it away, so Yuli came over and gently pulled with her two fingers. She simply cut off a few strands of hair and said in a low voice that only she could hear, "Wait for me at the back door.

Yu Yan glanced at him, then turned and left.

Ye Mingyue was standing a few steps away, waiting for her. Seeing her come over, she suspiciously asked: "What did the Prince say to you?"

"Hmm, why do you think I'm so quiet like a fool?" Yu Yan made up some random words.

That day, persuading Ye Mingyue to join hands was just to protect herself, so as to more or less take advantage of Ye Mingyue's situation. This Ye Mingyue was actually a more genuine person. Listening to her, her heart was filled with hope and expectation. Yu Yan was a little regretful, but she felt that Ye Mingyue was pitiful. Such a noble and noble woman, for the sake of love, she couldn't care about her pride, and could only wait for this man to love her.

"You don't look like a fool, I look like one." Ye Mingyue stared at her, and spoke word by word: "Yu Yan, don't lie to me, you won't love your prince any more than I will. If you really lied to me, I won't forgive you. "

Yu Yan smiled, nodded, and slowly walked forward.

Ye Mingyue followed behind her for a while, seeing that she was silent, she became impatient and turned to leave.

Yu Yan turned her head to look at her, wanting to say something but hesitated.

Forget it, let's ask Yulixiao about his feelings towards the two.

and Chen Yao were alone, Ye Sujian and Qiu Xuanling were one, and Ye Sujian was one more. There was really only this abandoned house that couldn't be used to be used by her in the past, but the Steward Fu had already been cleaned up overnight and the broken windows and windows had been repaired. The green tiles that leaked the rain had also been ruthlessly smelt with the fragrance of sandalwood.

It was only today that she found out that Ah Lang had gotten into an argument with the city guards when they were leaving the city and was thrown into the prison. Nian En had been locked up the entire time, and had not been released at this time. Yu Yan guessed that the blow must have been heavy, perhaps due to the fact that he was recuperating, it was inconvenient for her to see.

Yu Yan felt a knot in her heart. She could not understand, who poisoned her with mercury?

Just as he was deep in thought, the Steward Fu brought the doctor in and greeted him with a smile. "Esteemed wangfei, this is Doctor Xu. His medical skills are exceptional, the prince has specially requested you to take out esteemed wangfei's pulse."

Heh, the way you address me has changed.

Yu Yan sat down on the side of the table and looked up at Doctor Xu.

He was in his forties, with thin white skin and a tuft of beard on his chin. If not for this black beard, people would have thought that he was born in extreme detail.

"Greetings, Empress." He knelt down and kowtowed.

"Get up." Yu Yan nodded lightly and retracted her gaze.

"Doctor Xu is the most famous doctor in the surrounding five cities. His uncles are all in the palace, and if it wasn't for the fact that he is the only son of his family and his mother being so weak, he would have been sent to the Imperial Hospital to serve the Emperor. Princess Hua-Yang can set her mind at ease and make sure the medicine is taken care of. " Steward Fu laughed happily, with a flattering look on his face.

"Oh, can Steward Fu make this promise?" Yu Yan laughed, and raised her eyes to look at him.

The Steward Fu choked, then laughed dryly and retreated to the side, allowing Doctor Xu to take Yu Yan's pulse.

The servant girl brought the chair over, and Doctor Xu sat down beside Yu Yan. With his eyes closed, he placed his finger on Yu Yan's wrist, and after listening for a while, he said softly: "The Empress's body is very weak, you must avoid having a child, so as to avoid injuries."

"Is there anything wrong with that?" Yu Yan asked softly.

"En, the Empress's pulse seems a little chaotic …"

"Is there mercury poison?" Yu Yan asked again.

Hearing this, Steward Fu quickly turned his head to look at Yu Yan, a trace of astonishment flashing across his eyes.

After listening for a long time, he shook his head and said, "It looks like mercury poison, but it doesn't seem to be mercury at all. Empress, open your mouth and let me have a look."

Yu Yan softly stuck out the tip of her tongue, and Doctor Xu came closer. Steward Fu immediately pulled's body back, and reminded him in a small voice: "Doctor Xu, don't get too close."

Dr. Xu felt a little panicked and quickly leaned back.

"Steward Fu, can you go out? "Don't talk too much." Yu Yan was angry, and shouted at the Steward Fu.

Steward Fu forced a smile as he retreated a few steps and stood there with his head bowed.

"Doctor Xu, look carefully." Yu Yan stuck out her tongue again.

Doctor Xu's forehead and nose began to sweat, and it took a long time for him to calm his heart. After staring at the tip of her bright red tongue for a while, he finally said in a low voice, "Empress, forgive this lowly one's rudeness, but can this lowly one give it a try with a silver needle?"

"Bite the tongue?" Yu Yan frowned, how painful was that!

"No, my forehead …" Doctor Xu pointed to the birthmark on her forehead.

Yu Yan's heart dropped, could it be that there was a problem with the birthmark? Does Sulanqi really know what this is? She lightly nodded her head, allowing Doctor Xu to gently pick at her forehead with his silver needle. The bright blood rolled on top of the silver needle and dripped into the small white porcelain plate held in Doctor Xu's other hand. It was like a drop of bright flower juice, and it carried the same fragrance as the tip of her tongue.

"Esteemed wangfei, this little servant will bring the blood back. Once I understand the situation, I'll immediately return and report to the esteemed empress." Doctor Xu's expression was cold. Yu Yan had been practicing medicine for dozens of years, but it was the first time she had seen this kind of situation. Both her saliva and blood had a strange fragrance, and if it wasn't because of natural physique problems or years of consumption of medicinal pellets, then it would be poison.

"Doctor Xu, come with me to receive my reward." Only then did Steward Fu dare to come forward, and bring Doctor Xu down. When he cupped his hands and bowed to Yu Yan, his eyes shone like an old fox's.

Yu Yan was disgusted, but she also admired a person like him. In this chaotic world, a eunuch was like a fish in water, being valued everywhere was his ability.

After the two of them left, Yu Yan touched her forehead, and turned to the servant girl beside him: "Is this really that ugly?"

"Not ugly, very beautiful." The servant girl quickly said.

Yu Yan held onto her forehead, entered the house and looked at the copper mirror, barely managing to calm herself down, there were people with moles, they grew bigger and bigger, and there were no dead people, probably because they were too tired recently, they managed to rebel.

On the table were two cloths, needle and thread scissors, etc. The thing that was given to Yu Yan was to make shoes and socks. Yu Yan was not good at all with these, but it was a good deed, and one should treat it as a virtue. She called in the maids and told them to make shoes and she made her own socks.

It wasn't that she wanted to be lazy, but socks were easy to make. Even if they were crooked, they could still be taken apart and rearranged. If the shoes were broken, the soldiers would be uncomfortable wearing them.

The white cloth was cut and pieced together. Yu Yan took out the needle and thread, but it was not as easy as holding a pen. She felt awkward on her left and right, and in less than a cup of tea's time, all ten of her fingers had been pierced through. From time to time, she would place the fingers in her mouth and suck on them. From now on, I must cherish my clothes, shoes and socks. How many fingers do I have to tie to make a set of fine clothes!

Several female servants watched on from the side. They wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare to. One of them walked over and softly taught her.

"Empress, if you hold the needle like this, it won't pierce your hand."

"I'll do it too, but not much." Yu Yan pursed her lips and smiled, feeling a little embarrassed.

"The money in the hands of the Empress is expensive, it's in the hands of a pen." The servant girl boldly said this.

Yu Yan glanced at her and recognized that she was someone who often served Yulixiao.

"What's your name?"

"Servant Fang Lan."

"The name is pretty nice." Yu Yan nodded her head lightly. This Fang Lan was really pretty, and smart at the same time. Looking at her, Yu Yan couldn't help but think of Nian An and Nian En. Since it wasn't mercury, but due to the birthmark, those two girls didn't have any faults.

"It's fine for the Empress to make one or two pairs. The madams will all be like this, as long as it's done in name." Fanglan urged her to put down her needle and thread and go to bed.

Yu Yan shook her head and said softly: "I have nothing better to do anyways, I can do it. Look at my speed, I can't do much."

The maidservants retreated, and the room was silent except for the occasional hiss of the scissors as they tore through the fabric.
