Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Lu Simo comforted Tao and said: "Mother, don't think so much, how do you know that it is better for my sister to marry her cousin than to enter the palace? Although we can't see my sister now, but if my sister is favored, maybe You will be promoted to concubine in two years, and if you miss your sister by then, won’t you be able to see your sister when you enter the palace on the [-]th day of the lunar new year?”

Tao shook his head: "How can it be so easy? I don't expect your sister to be promoted to concubine or anything, I just hope that your sister can be safe and sound in the palace."

"Mother, don't worry, my sister has been smart since she was a child, and she will be safe and secure in the palace." Lu Simo said, changing the subject: "Now I just listen to sympathy for the girl who is engaged to my cousin."

The person who is going to marry likes other women in his heart, not to mention that he is not the daughter-in-law that the future mother-in-law likes, and there is also a sister-in-law who is also not a fuel-efficient lamp. I am afraid that life will be difficult in the future.

Lu Simo always felt that what his uncle did was a bit inappropriate, but after thinking about it, he felt that his uncle had no other choice but to do this. Besides, he said that his cousin would marry a wife sooner or later, so if he didn't marry this girl Will also marry other girls, there is always a girl who has to face this situation.

For Lu Wanning, the days of celebrating the new year in the palace are no different from usual, except for saying hello every day, she spends time in her palace.

Early in the morning of the seventh day of the lunar new year, after Lu Wanning greeted the queen, she had just returned to the Linglong Pavilion on her front foot, when Hong Jian came in with a large bag of things on her back foot.

"Hong Jian met Lu Meiren."

"Qingzhi, quickly help Miss Hongjian get up." Sitting on the soft bed, Lu Wanning glanced at the large bag of things with a pungent medicinal smell in Hongjian's hand, and said with a smile, "What is Miss Hongjian bringing here?" ?”

"If you go back to Beauty Lu, this is what the imperial concubine asked her servants to bring to Beauty Lu." Hong Jian handed the medicine bag she was carrying to Qingzhi, and said: "The imperial concubine specially asked for this medicine from a genius doctor outside the palace. The prescription says that as long as Lu Meiren drinks this medicine for three days before going to bed every time, you will definitely be pregnant within three months."

"This..." Lu Wanning showed hesitation, "Is this medicine reliable? Didn't Imperial Physician Liu say that there is no such medicine before? And I have never heard of such a magical prescription before."

Hong Jian smiled and said: "Don't worry, beauty Lu, the reason why Imperial Doctor Liu said that was because he had never seen this prescription before, so he thought that there was no such medicine in the world, but when the imperial concubine brought the prescription for him to see, he It is said that this prescription is indeed effective."

"This prescription is a magical prescription that is not passed on among other genius doctors. Since even Imperial Physician Liu doesn't know about it, it's normal for Lu Meiren that you haven't heard of it."

In fact, when Imperial Physician Liu saw the prescription, he first said: "This prescription is not very appropriate, and it may not make the imperial concubine what she wants."

But seeing how the imperial concubine believed in the prescription, Imperial Physician Liu changed his words again and said: "If the imperial concubine is really in a hurry, it's okay to let Beauty Lu try it. There are many people in this world who are more skilled than my ministers. Maybe it's because I'm not skilled in medicine that I can't understand the subtleties of this prescription."

But Hong Jian would not tell Lu Wanning such a thing.

After hearing what Hong Jian said, Lu Wanning smiled and said: "Since it is a prescription that the concubine concubine kindly found, it doesn't matter if I try it."

Hong Jian nodded and said: "The imperial concubine really spent a lot of energy to find this. Beauty Lu must not disappoint the imperial concubine's wishes, and must remember to drink the medicine on time."

Lu Wanning said: "Naturally, I also want to be able to conceive an emperor's heir. If there is such a medicine, I will try it."

Hong Jian naturally wouldn't doubt Lu Wanning's sincerity.

After returning to Zhaoyang Palace, I reported the truth to the imperial concubine.

The concubine was silent for a while after listening, and then said: "I hope this medicine will really work."

In Linglong Pavilion, Qingzhi looked at the medicine bag in front of her, and asked Lu Wanning, "Master, is this medicine?"

Lu Wanning smiled, grabbed the medicine packs on the table, and threw them all into the brazier in front of her.

A thick, pungent smoke came out, and Lu Wanning, Qingzhi and the others were cured of their coughs, but soon the medicine packs in the basin burst into flames.

After the fire, only a pile of black ash remained.

Qingzhi looked at the pile of black ash in the basin, and asked Lu Wanning: "Master, don't you believe that this medicine can make people pregnant?"

Lu Wanning looked at a piece of medicine ash flying in the air, and said, "Whether this medicine is really useful or not, I won't drink it."

Qingzhi wanted to ask something else, but seeing that Lu Wanning had already picked up the book at hand and had no intention of continuing, she shut her mouth tactfully.

On the night of the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the palace prepared a lantern show. Many palace lanterns were hung in the imperial garden. All the concubines in the palace could go to see it. Lu Wanning also went to see it. The lanterns in the palace were all made by the office Made by skilled craftsmen, each one is very beautiful and exquisite.

Lu Wanning took Qingzhi and Qingdai to watch for a while, then felt a little tired on the feet, and wanted to find a place to sit and continue watching later.

So, she took Qingzhi and Qingdai to the pavilion not far away, when she was approaching the pavilion, she saw that the crown prince was standing in front of Concubine An talking not far from the pavilion.

Although it was night, there were so many lanterns hanging around, and the expressions on the faces of An Pin and the prince were still clearly photographed.

Concubine An's expression looked at the prince with pampering and helplessness, while the concubine's expression on Concubine An was also very close.

Lu Wanning listened carefully to the conversation between the two, and heard the crown prince saying to Concubine An: "The chestnut cake made by Concubine An is really the best chestnut cake I have ever eaten, and if it is Concubine An who loves me, I will It’s been a long time since I had chestnut cake.”

Concubine An smiled and said with a gentle face, "If His Royal Highness likes it, I will find a chance to cook it for His Royal Highness in the future, but His Royal Highness must not let the Empress know, otherwise the Empress will be angry again."

The crown prince nodded and said: "Don't worry, Madam An, I will definitely not let the queen mother know."

After finishing speaking, the prince said with an aggrieved face again: "Ms. An, how did your mother become like this? In the past, she obviously liked me the most, but now she only forces me to study and forces me to study. Don't care about my life, do you think she doesn't love me anymore?"

Concubine An smiled and shook her head, "His Royal Highness, you have misunderstood the empress, you are the only son of the empress, and she will rely on her in the future, how can the empress not love you, she forces you to study It's also for your own good, you have to understand the painstaking efforts of the empress."
