The news that Shangshu Zhong's family was going to take a concubine was a hot topic half a month ago, but the news that Shangshu Zhong and Madam Zhong had reconciled was spread last night.

It was said that Shangshu Zhong gave all the young maids in his family silver and sent them away, leaving only some middle-aged maids to serve.

Madam Zhong was very happy and quickly told General Han about it.

In the following days, Madam Zhong and Shangshu Zhong were inseparable and became a couple that all the noble ladies in the capital envied.

In the mansions of high-ranking officials, who doesn't have three wives and four concubines?

There are very few families like theirs who are devoted to only one lady.

A group of ladies were envious of Mrs. Zhong's story.

"I remember that Shangshu Zhong wanted to take a concubine some time ago, why is he so affectionate with Mrs. Zhong now?"

The speaker was the second daughter of Lord Wu's family, who married a third-rank official in Beijing. His family already had three or four concubines. After hearing about Mrs. Zhong's story, she felt a little jealous.

Another lady lifted her sleeve and covered her mouth with a smile, saying, "Maybe Mrs. Zhong has some secret recipe to control her husband, which made Shangshu Zhong come back."

When the ladies present heard this, they immediately started to ask, "What secret recipe did Mrs. Zhong get? Can we also ask for it?"

The second lady of the Wu family pricked up her ears and wanted to ask, but was too embarrassed to speak, so she sneered, "What secret recipe? I wonder what tricks she used to make Shangshu Zhong give up the idea of ​​taking a concubine."

At this time, someone stood up and said, "I guess there is no secret recipe. Mrs. Zhong and Shangshu Zhong have always had a deep friendship. There were just some misunderstandings between the two. Now that the misunderstandings have been cleared up, the relationship will naturally be good again."

When the ladies heard this, their faces were immediately filled with disappointment.

At this time, someone else stood up and said, "However, I have heard some rumors. Some time ago, Mrs. Zhong went to Zhou's incense shop and bought a kind of incense pill called Chun Yi Nong. Since buying this incense, Mrs. Zhong and Shangshu Zhong have been together almost every night."

This made the ladies blush.

A bold lady smiled and said, "Could it be that this incense worked?"

"I don't know. No one said it was this incense, but we can all try it. Maybe it really works. And the incense pill is also very fragrant. It's not a loss to buy it." The man smiled.

The person who said this was actually Han Yan'er's best friend. She got married before her and often mixed with these women in Beijing.

Han Yan'er heard that she was going to Wu's house to appreciate flowers, so she specially taught her to say this.

Sure enough, what she said really worked.

Although the ladies didn't say anything after hearing this, they sent their maids to Zhou's incense shop to buy incense when they returned to the house.

Especially Miss Wu Er, who bought five boxes at once.

She ordered Chun Yi Nong that night. I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but her master who always spoke coldly to her actually slept in her room and said a lot of sweet words.

The two of them were busy all night.

The next day, Miss Wu Er took the incense and thought of her sister, Concubine Wu.

Recently, the emperor was very cold to Concubine Wu because of the new Concubine Ru, which made Concubine Wu very worried.

Miss Wu Er brought the Chun Yinong to Concubine Wu, "My Lady, take a look at this."

Concubine Wu was still a little weak because of her miscarriage. She looked down at the box in Miss Wu Er's hand and said with disdain, "Where did this junk come from?"

Miss Wu Er opened the box, took out the incense pill and handed it to her, smiling, "My Lady, this is not junk, this is the incense that can make a man change his mind."

"Can make a man change his mind?" Concubine Wu snorted coldly, not believing it at all. She lowered her head. She looked at the nail polish on her nails, "Sister, don't be fooled."

Miss Wu put the incense pill back into the box, lowered her head slightly, and said shyly, "Madam, I lit this incense last night, and my master didn't want to leave in the morning."

Concubine Wu was shocked, "Really? I heard that your man hasn't been to your room for a long time."

Miss Wu nodded, "Really, if you don't believe me, take a look."

As she said that, she pulled her collar, revealing a kiss mark on her neck.

Concubine Wu looked up, sat up straight, and said seriously, "Is it really because of the incense?"

Miss Wu pulled her collar again, smiling, "Yes, it's because of the incense."

"

Concubine Wu immediately became interested. She took the incense box that she had just disliked and smelled the incense pills inside. "It is indeed very fragrant. I will try it tonight."

Miss Wu Er smiled and said, "My queen, the emperor did not punish you for such a big thing last time. He still has feelings for you. He just likes Concubine Ru for the sake of novelty. With this incense, he will definitely come back to you."

Concubine Wu was very happy to hear this. She took out a incense pill and smelled it again and again. "If this is possible, it would be great."

Miss Wu Er was in a hurry to go back. After giving the incense to Concubine Wu, she did not stay for long.

She slowly got up, bowed and left Concubine Wu's palace.

As soon as Concubine Wu Er saw Miss Wu leave, she immediately asked the maid to light the incense, and then sent another maid to invite the emperor.

At night, the emperor really came.
