In her previous life, when she was in power, Marquis Yuanchao had been suppressed by her several times because Tian Lan didn't have a concubine. Tian Lan, on the other hand, was disheartened. She took Marquis Yuanchao's concubine and gave her the authority of the household to the concubine. He then turned around and led the rest to the cold mountain temple, saying that he wanted to pray for good fortune in peace.

Wen Shuyuddell broke out in a cold sweat. One had to know that this cold mountain temple was a famous nunnery. She was afraid that Tian Lan wouldn't be able to bear it, so she twisted her hair and went back to her room. She sent someone to bring Madam Marquis Dingzhong to Han Mountain Temple and asked her to accompany her daughter.

Wen Shuyu shook Tian Lan's arm as she asked, "Is Madam feeling better?" He asked absent-mindedly.

When she saw Tian Lan again, Wen Shuyu was certain that this was the last time Empress Dowager Jiang had come to the Ci Ning Palace. Meanwhile, Tian Lan had to spend more than ten days at home due to Lady Marquis Dingzhong's illness …

Tian Lan said softly, "Mother's body has already recovered. Imperial Physician Zhang from the Imperial Physician Courtyard diagnosed the prescription for her pulse." She looked at Wen Shuyu with a smile. "I wanted to go back for a rare trip, so I stayed with her for a few more days."

Wen Shuyu nodded and whispered the incident to the others. Tian Lan Tong had grown up in the palace, so she naturally knew Yu Dingwen. Since Empress Dowager Yu's parents and brothers had both passed away, only Yu Dingwen was left with the proper bloodline in his entire Yu Family, so Empress Dowager Yu naturally had to take good care of him. Although she wasn't as delicate and precious as Great Empress Dowager, she still frequently passed Yu Dingwen down to the palace.

"Lord Yu?" Tian Lan asked in surprise, her eyes flashing with unreadable emotion.

Wen Shuyu was surprised by the question, but Tian Lan had already opened her mouth again, "So you're saying you didn't send any osmanthus cake to Great Empress Dowager at all?" Then, you can go back to the hall first. I'll have someone deliver a message to the Warm Pavilion saying that you have caught a cold and have returned to the hall to rest. "

Everyone in the palace knew County Princess Shayuan had an expensive body, so this explanation was extremely suitable. In her previous life, Wen Shuyu had said the same thing. However, hearing Tian Lan's words, Zhang Xuan found it strange.

According to common sense, Tian Lan shouldn't have asked who Yang Jian was first after hearing this? In the half day that had passed, Wen Shuyu only felt that one unexpected event after another had thrown her into a state of confusion.

He decided to not think about anything else for the time being. "It's fine, let's go back to the hall to rest first. We'll go and congratulate Great Empress Dowager Ai when she leaves." Just like in his previous life.

The two returned to the palace together. This side chamber was on the east side of the Palace, and although it wasn't as big as the main palace, it wasn't as large as a smile. The north side of the hall was occupied by Wen Shuyu, while the south side was occupied by Tian Lan. However, the two girls had a good relationship, and Tian Lan felt that she had entered the palace to accompany Wen Shuyu. She had spent most of the month with Wen Shuyu, living in the north.

Tian Lan had just finished sending the message to the Warm Pavilion, and had gone off with Wen Shuyu on two long journeys. Song Yun then led a small palace maid and bowed to the two of them with a smile. "Empress Dowager has already returned to the palace. Great Empress Dowager, hearing that County Lord Jinghe had returned, said that the princess will accompany her to the Warm Pavilion for a chat."

The two of them packed their things and rushed to the Warm Pavilion. When Great Imperial Consort Dowager saw Tian Lan come in, she immediately stood up from her slanted bed. Her eyes reddened. "My poor Jing Shu!" When Tian Lan heard this mournful cry, her eyes turned red. She went forward and knelt, crying, "Jing Shu pays her respects to the empress dowager and Great Imperial Consort Dowager."

"Linglong, quickly help your sister up. This is not a new year, so there's no need for such a big gift." After saying that, she glanced at Great Imperial Consort Dowager and scolded, "What are you crying for, it's just that it's been a few days since we last met. It's just like this."

Great Imperial Consort Dowager retracted her tears along the way and replied with a smile, "Isn't this happy to see Jing Shu come back?"

"In that case, don't cry anymore. Don't make the younger generation laugh." Saying that, he pulled Jing Shu over to his side and carefully sized her up, "Good child, don't cry anymore. Your grandaunt has been thinking about you these past few days." After saying that, she looked at Great Imperial Consort Dowager and said to Tian Lan, "Your mother must be tired from waiting on you these days. Let Matchcloud stew some soup for you later."

Wen Shuyu bowed to the two of them with a smile. Then, she sat down on the brick bed next to Great Imperial Consort Dowager and scolded her, "Look at him, Great Imperial Consort Dowager. When Jing Shu came back, her grandmother didn't even look at me."

Great Empress Dowager turned her head and said, "No matter where you go, you annoying monkey."

Wen Shuyu tilted her head with a grimace, making old Imperial Consort Dowager and Great Empress Dowager laugh, and then unintentionally asked, "What's Empress Dowager doing in the Palace of Tzu Ning?" He even brought the son of some vice general? " As he spoke, he carefully looked at the people around him from the corner of his eyes.

Great Imperial Consort Dowager's body suddenly tensed up and she immediately relaxed.

Great Empress Dowager still had a smile on her face as she said, "This question is illogical. No matter what, I'm her mother's wife. Empress Dowager can't possibly not be able to grow old." As for that Yang Jian, since Empress Dowager wants to promote him, it means she has a personal relationship with him. "

Wen Shuyu's thoughts were not that simple, but Great Empress Dowager clearly did not want to talk about it anymore. She grabbed Jing Shu's hand and asked her mother if her mother was sick.

Wen Shuyu had no choice but to suppress the doubts in her heart and accompany Tian Lan to chat with the two old men to relieve the boredom, only returning to the side hall after they had used their full strength.

When she returned to the palace, she saw Qian Cao leading a group of palace maids as they prepared to wash their toiletries. She was lost in thought as she watched Qian Cao's busy figure.

In her previous life, she had tolerated Yang Jian repeatedly and had listened to Yu Dingwen's opinion before choosing an exquisite palace maid to send to Yang Jian. At the beginning, she didn't appreciate his help. Later, not only did she accept the palace maids she sent away, she even forcefully took Qian Cao away.

It had to be known that Qian Cao and Ling Xi were the most loyal to her in the palace. However, Qian Cao had a timid personality, so she didn't dare to play another game without her order. On the other hand, Ling Xi's personality was more to her taste, straightforward and fearless. She was more suited to live in a human-eating palace than Qian Cao, and Wen Shuyu liked to give Ling Xi instructions whenever she could.

After washing her face and rinsing her mouth, Wen Shuyu looked at Qian Cao and said, "Rest well today. It's time for the herb to be used for the night watch." Although Qian Cao was surprised, she had always been the type to do whatever Wen Shuyu said. She changed the clothes for sleeping and went down to change into Ling Xi's.

When it was late at night and everyone had gone to rest and Ling Xi was the only one left in the room, Wen Shuyu blew out the candle and whispered into her ear, "Tomorrow, go to the Warm Pavilion and find out what Empress Dowager had said to the Ci Ning Palace today."

Ling Xi responded in a soft voice. She helped tuck in Wen Shuyu's quilt and lit a sleeping incense. Before long, Wen Shuyu fell into a deep sleep.

In her dream, she saw Lou Huaiji, who was still unsteady, walking on short legs. When she looked again, the little Lou Huaiji was already gone. In front of her was Marquis Pingling, Marquis Pingling, and he walked closer step by step, trapping Wen Shuyu on the bed with an evil smile on his face, "All the women in this palace are very precious, do you want me to help you reproduce your offspring or do you want to mess up my backyard?" "Why don't you give me that female official who has been following you around so that you can help me suppress that uncountable group of people?"
