An'an 3,500 taels of silver notes. As he was giving them out, he felt it was inappropriate and drew back two hundred-tael silver notes from the 3,500 taels."We should still keep some for emergencies."...: []

Xianyunzhi, a legendary holy herb, is said to have the power to resurrect the dead and is one of the necessities for removing Yun An'an's deadly Gu.

But whether or not the legendary Xianyunzhi really exist, they have only heard of it and never seen it.

Someone from the Yu Changyuan family is on the treasure hunting team in Beichen Kingdom, and they believe that person will definitely tell Yu Changyuan everything that happened to the treasure hunting team in Xianyun Valley.

But this old man has kept his mouth shut all along. If he hadn't been injured, You Changyuan was afraid he would have stayed holed up in Yantian Academy forever.

Old Wang narrowed his eyes, the size of mung beans, and stared at the thin old man in front of him, missing nothing in his gaze.

"At my age, can't you stop looking at me like that It's creepy."

"Don't beat around the bush, I want the truth."

Old Wang's face was serious, this matter wasn't trivial. This time it was different, having caught You Changyuan, we must ask clearly first.

Seeing Old Wang not giving up, Yu Changyuan raised his teacup and took a sip before lifting his head again.

Why do you need to know about Xianyunzhi

What do you think Isn't that nonsense

If it weren't for the life-threatening Gu on Yun Anan, he wouldn't have been so arrogant and boastful for so long.

"Yu Changyuan, just tell us everything you know. Even if it's for Yun'er's sake."

"Oh!"

He sighed, his gaze shifting to fall upon Yun Qian Shan.

What do you two want to know.

"That's all you know."

Old Wangye and Yun Qian Shan looked solemnly at You Changyuan, after much deliberation, You Changyuan finally spoke of everything he knew.

On the other side, Yun An'an met the flower boss of Yan Yulou on her way back from buying groceries.

Hua Boss was so enthusiastic when she saw Yun An'an, if Yun An'an were a man, I'm afraid all the women in Yan Yu Lou would want to marry her.

"Your Highness, it's a pleasure to see you."

"It's been a long time, how are the girls of Yuyanlou doing"

"Many thanks to Lady Yi Wang for your concern. The girls miss you dearly."

When she saw Yun An'an, Mama Hua always had endless things to say. Not only did she tell her that Yan Yu Lou was going to reopen, but she also chose the location and told Yun An'an about where some of the girls had gone.

"It's good to have a stable life, the girls at Yan Yu Lou are all beautiful, it would be nice if they could find someone they truly loved and get married."

"Your Highness, you're joking. For us, just becoming a concubine is already enough to be thankful for. Not everyone can be as pure and innocent as Miss Qing’er and become a respected madam."

At this point, Mama Hua seemed to remember something. She took a box from the handmaid's.

The box contained a lot of silver bills and gold and silver jewelry.

"Please have Lady Yi deliver these to Lord Gao's mansion. These are some thoughts from the young ladies of our Yan Yu Lou."

Flower Mom smiled and sincerely blessed Qing'er and Gao Lin.

"As you know, we come from humble beginnings. If we were to go to Lord Gao's mansion without any preparation, people might gossip about Qing'er. So it would be a great favor if Princess Yi could give Qing'er some money and jewelry."

As Mama Hua would say, Qing'er also stayed at Yanyulou. Her dowry as a bride naturally had to be generous and impressive, so people wouldn't underestimate her.

"Very well, this princess will personally deliver it to Lord Gao's residence."

"Thank you, Yi Wangfei."

Mother Hua stood up and bid farewell to Yun An'an.

On the carriage, Qingfeng kept turning back to look at Yun An'an from time to time, obviously wanting to say something.

"Just say what you have to say, and fart if you have to. Why are you acting like a little girl after getting married"

"Hee hee~ This lowly one means to say, Your Highness, you may appear lazy and greedy, but in the hearts of many, you are a truly kind person."

Qīngfēng admired Yún n'ān from the bottom of his heart.

Don't look at him as if he's usually carefree and lazy. When he starts cursing, he can insult your whole family without using a single vulgar word. When it comes to fighting, he's the first one to charge in, wishing he could smash your head in.

But it was precisely this kind of woman who unexpectedly earned the heartfelt respect of a motley crew.

Whether it's Heiyishi's Yuer Shan, or Huabao from Yan Yulou, or even the Dean of Yingtian Academy, and so on!

"Aren't you plotting something"

With half-closed phoenix eyes, Yun Anan looked up and down at Qingfeng.

What kind of mischief is this kid up to

"I assure you that everything I have said is true and I have no ulterior motives."

"I bet you're possessed, go to Gao Fatty's place."

"Yes, your Highness."

The carriage returning to Yiwangfu changed its route and went to Gaolin's residence.

As soon as I entered the mansion, I saw Gao Lin entangled with Qing'er from afar. His eyes seemed to want to stay on her face all the time.

"

My good cabbage has been trampled by a pig, oh well!

"

Sighing, looking at the extremely disharmonious scene before him, Yun An'an truly couldn't understand.

There are so many men in the world, there are more handsome, wealthy and powerful people than Gao Lin. As long as Qing'er nods her head, countless people would line up to ask for her hand in marriage. She should at least become a legitimate wife.

Why is it that Qing'er went blind and fell for Gao Lin

Is it his height and weight that you find attractive, or is it his stinginess Or perhaps it's the way he always tattletales.

She truly couldn't understand.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess! What brings you here in broad daylight"

Gao Lin turned his head and almost jumped in fright. Yun An'an was right behind him, staring at him with a gaze that could shred him to pieces.

"I'm not here to see you, what are you getting excited about"

Yun An'an glanced at Gao Lin, then took out a box from the cloth bag behind her that Hua Boss had asked her to deliver.

"Qing'er, this is Mr. Hua and the girls from Yan Yu Lou's best wishes for your happy wedding."

"Thank you, Princess Yi. Where are Mama Hua and the others"

Ching'er had long considered Yan Yu Lou her home. If not for Sister Ni Chang's selfless sacrifice, she wouldn't be who she is today.

"He didn't come, and Hua Boss won't come on the day you marry Gao Fatty either."

Yunan relayed Hua Boss's words to Qing'er word for word.

Because of her background, Yuyanlou wouldn't cause any trouble for Qing'er.

Yānyǔlóu will always be Qíng'ér girl's home, but they shouldn't just go to Gāoshàngshu's mansion. The two places have different meanings.

"Boss Hua and the girls are doing this for your own good."

Yun'an patted Qing'er's shoulder gently, her gaze fell on the redness in Qing'er's eyes, and she soothed softly.

People from the land of wind and moon who can be as understanding and grateful as Boss Hua are rare.

No matter what the reason was for Qing'er's initial mistake of entering Yanyulou, Hua Boss truly treated every girl in Yanyulou like his own family.

They have also considered everything for their future.

After leaving Gao Fatzi's mansion, Yun An'an turned back to Yi Wangfu.

As soon as the carriage came to a halt, Li Xiaosan leaped down from his horse and strode towards Yiwangfu.

"Little Three."

Li Xiaosan is one of Beichen Yi's dark guards. He has returned, so does that mean Beichen Yi has also come back

"Your Majesty, the Queen."

Li Xiaosan heard Yun An'an's voice, turned his head to look, and knelt on one knee.

"Where is Bei Chen Yi"

Yun'an looked left and right but couldn't see Bei Chen Yi's shadow.

"As for His Royal Highness, the King is still stationed at the border fort in the northwest. My humble return is twofold: to deliver a letter and to retrieve an item."

Saying that, Li Xiaosan respectfully presented a letter.

The letter was as thick as a hand, filled with Beichen Yi's longing for Yun An'an.

Every word, every sentence between the lines reveals love.

Looking at it, Yun'an's eyes turned red.

"Damn you, ran off by yourself and now you write a letter to apologize. What good is that"

Although she scolded Beichen Yi, seeing his familiar handwriting still warmed her heart.

When are you leaving

After one hour, I shall have to leave. Is there anything the Duchess wishes me to relay to His Royal Highness

"Go and get what you want, wait for me an hour."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun An'an turned and stepped into the kitchen of Yi Wangfu.

He didn't come out for a whole hour.

In front of the gate of Yi Wangfu, Li Xiaosan was holding the reins tightly. This time he came back for an important matter and mustn't delay even a moment.

"Take it."

Yun An'an walked out carrying a backpack. Inside the backpack were all sorts of pastries, specially treated so that even in the dry climate of the northwest they wouldn't spoil for a month.

This Queen wants you to tell Beichen Yi only one thing, protect yourself well. Otherwise, this old lady will remarry.

“Your Highness, this lowly servant still wishes to live a few more days.”

"Get rolling!"

The horse galloped away, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Looking at Li Xiaosan's figure gradually disappearing from view, Yun Anan frowned.

"It takes some time even for Xiao San'er to travel back and forth at full speed. What is he going back to Yiwu Wangfu for It must be important."

Yun An'an forgot to ask Li Xiaosan what he was taking.

Why not send a message with carrier pigeons first and have the guards from Duke Yì's Mansion deliver it That way, you would save half the time and distance, wouldn't you

"Your Highness, whatever questions you can think of, the King must have already considered. Since he went to such lengths, it must be something important."

Qingfeng kindly reminded Yun'an, "The Prince must have his own plans."

So Are you calling me stupid

Yun'an glanced at Qingfeng with a hint of displeasure.

"I dare not, how could I say that the Princess is foolish."

"Don't you dare That means you thought about it in your heart."

"I guess I'll just go sweep the yard."

Continuing to speak with the princess would inevitably lead to a scolding. Given her personality, she would likely vent all her frustration on him that she couldn't get out on the prince.

It's best to leave first.

Night falls, shrouding the heavens and earth.

At the end of summer and beginning of autumn, Yun'an lay on the eaves looking at the glittering stars in the sky.

Only in the night could one hear footsteps, each step echoing as at least ten figures approached.

Yun An'an waved her hand, signaling the guards of Yiwangfu to stay calm. They seemed to have not played with mice for a long time.

"Kill!"

At that moment, the black-clothed man charged forward with his sword drawn, aiming the sharp blade at Yun An'an.

When the time came, the guards from Yi Wangfu appeared. Without Yun An'an needing to make a move, they dealt with the assassins in three or five moves.

"Oh, I thought Ye Ziyu, who was officially appointed as Chancellor, was a talented person. Now it seems that he's not even a fool."

She couldn't figure it out. What was so special about Prime Minister Ye Ziyu, who everyone said was sinister

These assassination attempts, again and again, are like children playing house. What's the point

All ten assassins in black were exterminated and sent back to Ye Xiang's residence in packages.

I thought I could stretch my muscles, but it ended up being a hasty wrap-up.

"All go back to sleep."

Yawn, Yun'an was just about to jump down from the tree when a wave of nausea hit her stomach.

"Ugh~~"

I almost vomited after dinner tonight.

What's wrong with her Did she get food poisoning

Without much thought, Yun Anan returned to the inner room of her study and slept until dawn.

The next day.

Yunan woke up past noon, yawned and tidied her study before heading to the market to buy groceries.

However, halfway through the trip, he was stopped by someone.

It wasn't someone else who stopped her, but Li Gonggong himself.

"Your Highness, the Emperor summons you to the palace for a conversation."

"No."

Yun An'an bluntly rejected Li Gonggong, with an expression that said "I'm not going, whoever wants to go can go."

"Your Majesty insists, Your Highness Princess Yi, please don't make it difficult for this old servant. This old servant is just following orders."

"You follow your orders, and my not going is my own business. The two are not contradictory."

She's stupid!

Now entering the palace, isn't it for Qing to wait and let Bei Chenhan be hanged

Li Gonggong knew what Yun An'an was worried about and persuaded her repeatedly. He even offered his life to ensure that the Crown Princess would accompany him into the palace.

"I won't go. I wouldn't go even if Rongrong went with me."

Saying nothing, Yun Anan lay in the carriage, eyes fixed on her book, which made Li Gonggong extremely anxious.

His eyes flickered, and Li Gonggong smiled again.

"Perhaps it's best if the Imperial Consort accompanies this old servant. His Majesty only wishes to speak with you about Xian Yunzhi, nothing more."

When it came to Xianyunzhi, Yun'anan raised her eyebrows slightly.

This guy understands that using the topic of Xian Yun Zhi is to pique her interest and get her into the palace, then set a trap to lure her in.

"Since Xian Yunzhi is still in the northwest, shouldn't she be The three countries of Xiling, Dong Qin, and Nanjing have sent troops to block all major checkpoints at the border of Beichen Kingdom. Bei Chen Han wouldn't have Xian Yunzhi."

"The Princess Consort is right, but the Princess Consort doesn't know that besides the Xianyun Grass in Xianyung Valley, there is another place in Beichen Kingdom that cultivates Xianyun Grass."

This is top secret and only known to every reigning emperor.

"Don't you treat me like a three-year-old child, Li Gonggong"

“This old servant dares to swear on his life that this is not a lie. If Princess Yi doesn’t believe me, she can follow this old servant into the palace. If there is even half a lie, Princess Yi can kill or dismember this old servant as she pleases.” smile appeared in Han Qing's eyes."Don't worry too much.""Huh"What's all the fuss about Besides, what's with that smirk on your face"This is not a woman's hair.""What does this have to do with me "Is...
