"Old Madam, please calm down." Dr. Xu persuaded softly, "You are always in good health, but now you are in a hurry. If you can't rest in peace, once your heart is hurt, Zi Ning will spend all his life learning. There is nothing that can be done.”

It was only then that Mrs. Gong realized that she had lost her usual dignified demeanor in a moment of anger, so she took a deep breath to subdue the rage in her heart, and instantly restored her usual kind and gentle face, and waved for everyone to leave, leaving only Xu Zining and the four A personal servant girl.

Glancing at Xiang Cui sideways, Xiang Cui Yihui went to the inner room with the brocade box.

Over here, Mrs. Gong held Xu Zining's hand, concealed her disappointment and resentment, and said kindly, "Thanks for having you here today, otherwise I would have confessed to my old bones. You are really a lucky star sent to me by heaven."

More than a year ago, she suddenly fell ill, and the doctors in Jiuyuan County were helpless. Seeing that she was dying, the housekeeper suddenly brought Xu Zining.

Xu Zining was born in a small village in Guangling County not far from Jiuyuan County. It is said that his family has practiced medicine for generations, and Xu Zining has been learning medicine from his father since he was a child. He happened to be invited to give a consultation to Mr. Dong, a rich gentry who was two streets away from Wangfu.

Hearing from Dong's servant that Xu Zining had cured Mr. Dong's serious illness, the housekeeper invited Xu Zining to the palace.

Originally, she and her son did not believe that a yellow-haired girl from the countryside would be able to solve a disease that even doctors who had practiced medicine for decades could not do anything about.

But the facts speak louder than words. After seven days, not only was her illness cured, but her head was no longer dizzy, her eyes were no longer blurred, and she felt refreshed as if she had suddenly become ten years younger. This is a testament to Xu Zining's medical skills. superior.

Afterwards, she sent someone to secretly investigate Xu Zining, which proved that Xu Zining was indeed innocent, well-behaved and sensible. She had always regretted that she had no daughter or granddaughter, and she liked it very much, so she would invite Xu Zining to the palace as a guest every now and then, and she gradually gave her trust. Privately, she hoped that Xu Zining would become the hero's wife, her granddaughter-in-law, so she brought Xu Zining to the palace three months before the hero came back.

"The old lady is serious." Xu Zining smiled apologetically and said, "Saving the world and saving people is Zining's duty, not to mention that the old lady was very kind to Zining, but Zining failed to cure the prince's old illness. It’s really embarrassing.”

Gently patted the back of Xu Zining's hand, Mrs. Gong said kindly, "It's none of your business. The prince's illness has long been useless in medicine. You don't need to blame yourself. By the way, Zining, how old are you this year?"

"Go back to the old lady, Zining has just been born."

"Have you ever been married or made a promise?"

When Xu Zining heard the words, a faint blush appeared on Xiumei's face, and he lowered his head and said shyly, "Not yet."

"Great."

Mrs. Gong Shuo's eyes flashed a strange dark light of calculation. Seeing Xu Zining suddenly looked up at her in puzzlement, she hurriedly put away the strange look on her face and eyes, and pretended to inquire, "This is the first time I see you. I think it's very eye-catching. After getting along for more than a year, you are not only knowledgeable, reasonable, gentle and careful, but also have extraordinary medical skills. The old man likes it more and more. I always think that it would be great if you were the granddaughter-in-law of the old man, but I don't know if you would like it. ?”

"Old madam..." Xu Zining lowered her head shyly, her fair cheeks turned rosy, and under the sunlight, she seemed as pure and charming as a lotus emerging from water. Her singing voice made people feel ashamed Fascinated: "But isn't the son missing?"

Although Gong Yuanhao completely blocked the news, the people in the palace, including Xu Zining who stayed in the room all day to study medical skills, still heard some rumors.

"I'm not talking about Yingjie."

"Ah?" Xu Zining didn't care about being shy, and looked up at Mrs. Gong suspiciously: Could it be that Mrs. Gong has a grandson?

Realizing that she had made a slip of the tongue, Mrs. Gong pretended to cough: "I am talking about a hero."

When Xu Zining heard that the blush on his face instantly condensed and then disappeared, his lips moved for a while before he stammered: "Old... the old lady will not be... want a child... Zi Ning..." A dark marriage, right?

Apparently, Madam Gong meant exactly what she meant, and held Xu Zining's hand tightly, not allowing her to escape: "Zi Ning, just listen to the old man's words. Although Yingjie is outstanding in appearance, he is indecisive and difficult to become a master, and the prince is terminally ill and will die soon. It’s just using them to block open and hidden arrows for the most beloved grandson hero, in the end it will only be the hero who will be crowned the Ninth Five-Year Honor, and you are the best candidate for the empress that the old man believes.”

Although Xiangcui and the others had known the old lady Gong's thoughts for a long time, they didn't expect that the old lady would ask Miss Xu to marry the second son in the dark, and they were stunned for a while.

"But Second Young Master..." Xu Zining was also shocked.

"I hate that Mu Qingyun actually killed the hero and ruined the old man's hope, and the old man will never let it go!" Mrs. Gong's complexion was gloomy and cold, and bloodthirsty murderous intent and some kind of madness shone in her pupils: " Even if I lose my son or die grandson, it doesn’t matter to me, as long as I’m still alive, sooner or later the state of Jin will belong to me, and I want the world to see that women can also rule the country!”

Xu Zining's eyes widened, and he stared blankly at the sullen and arrogant Mrs. Gong, feeling inexplicably horrified in his heart.

It turns out that this is what the old lady had in mind!No wonder he was concerned about the prince's condition on the surface, but he didn't care about it in reality, and he was even more indifferent to the disappearance of his son.

"Ke Zining has just given birth, and I don't want to spend the rest of my life as a widow every day..."

"Confused!" Hearing the struggle and slack in Xu Zining's tone, the smug smile on the corners of Madam Gong's lips was fleeting: "Once you become a hero's wife, you will be a member of my Gong family. , you are naturally the legitimate heir to the throne, and at that time, you can have any man you want, as many men as you want, and no one from the other nine clans will dare to say a word to anyone who dares to stop you from opposing you!"

Seeing that Xu Zining's face was still pale and hesitant, Mrs. Gong also knew that these words must have frightened her. After all, she was born in the countryside, so she was a bit timid, so she softened her tone and said, "I have already regarded you as a It is you who tell you this, and you can rest assured that as long as you are old, you will be protected for a whole day, and no one will touch you, and you will be given inexhaustible glory and wealth to your clan!"

"But Princess Nine..."

"Don't mention that bitch Mu Qingyun to the old man!"

Coldly interrupting Xu Zining's unfinished words, Mrs. Gong said in a secret way: "When the old man sits on the throne, I will definitely skin that lowly girl and make her cramp, and let her soul fly into oblivion and never be reborn forever! I might as well tell you, the old man will not be reincarnated!" It's not just the power of Jiuyuan County, that bitch wants to defeat Laoshen, it's just wishful thinking!"

Hearing Madam Gong's rebellious words and deeds, Xu Zining felt his whole body dripping with cold sweat, lowered his head, clasped his hands on his knees, and said in a low voice after a long time: "Madam, after all, this matter is related to Zining's business. For the rest of my life, please allow Zining to think about it again?"

"Report to the old lady..."

Mrs. Gong just opened her mouth to say something, but the housekeeper suddenly ran over with a look on her face, bowed her body tremblingly and said: "The guards just came to report that the 20 troops that attacked Liyang County last night were wiped out, and the prince is busy discussing with the generals. The countermeasures are really inseparable and go back home, if there is anything to do, please let the old lady handle it by herself!"

"What did you say?"

Mrs. Gong was furious, and immediately frightened the housekeeper and Xiang Cui to kneel on the ground with a plop, while Xu Zining lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly.

"His son died. As a father, he didn't come back to take a last look at his son to make arrangements for his funeral. He even excused himself. Is this what he should look like as a father? Does he still have old age in his eyes?"

"The lord said that the son is still alive and well. If anyone dares to spread rumors and cause troubles to affect the situation in the city, the lord will...severely punish and show no mercy!" His cold sweat has already wet the skirt of his clothes.

Standing up suddenly from the soft couch, Mrs. Gong's complexion became extremely ugly, and the temperature in the room suddenly dropped to freezing point with the sinister coldness emanating from her body: "Very well, this is the good son raised by the old man, It’s really good that you don’t even admit your own son!”

The housekeeper and Xiangcui were all shocked, and they cursed in their hearts: From the beginning to the end, the prince didn't recognize the second son at all, okay?

"You go and tell the prince, if he doesn't return to the mansion immediately, the old man will..."

Mrs. Gong was giving orders to the housekeeper, when she suddenly sensed a vaguely familiar aura in the air, she couldn't help but thought: "I'll show him my death, so that the world will know how unfilial he is!"

"Old madam..." If this matter is spread, the prince will definitely lose his reputation!The housekeeper and Xiangcui looked up at Mrs. Gong together.

"Hurry up!" Mrs. Gong raised her brows, and the housekeeper immediately got up and staggered away in a hurry. Mrs. Gong waved her hand and said, "You guys also retreat, no one is allowed to come in without the old man's order!"

"Servant (Zining) leave!" Looking at Mrs. Gong without showing any trace, Xu Zining and Xiang Cui left the room and closed the door tightly.

Looking at the gray figure that suddenly appeared in the room, Mrs. Gong asked with a coquettish expression, "Why are you here?"

The old man was about 50 years old, with thick eyebrows and a square face. Although he was full of dust and dust, his handsome demeanor was not damaged in the slightest. He stared at Mrs. Gong with piercing eyes, and asked without answering: "Is there something wrong with Xiong'er?" ?”

"Yes!" Mrs. Gong didn't hide anything, she led the old man into the inner room, pointed to the brocade box on the table and said sadly: "Our Xiong'er is right there!"

In Yanqing Palace, the imperial concubine leans on a soft couch to enjoy the scenery in the courtyard.

"Why did your people kill those thousands of soldiers?"
