As she spoke, the deep affection in her eyes overflowed uncontrollably. Ye Yue was a straightforward person. How could he understand the delicate feelings of this young girl?
Ye Yue gently patted Ye Bai on the shoulder and said again, "Since the Lord has summoned you, there must be something for you to handle. If you find it troublesome, you can leave it to me."
Hearing this, Ye Bai shook his head. "It all depends on the Queen Consort."
This answer made Ye Yue slightly stunned. "Does this matter have something to do with the Queen Consort? But the current Queen Consort is on guard against everyone. Are you sure?"
"What's there to be unsure about? All I have to do is knock out the Queen Consort that day and bring her back. What else could it be? So what if she doesn't cooperate?"
Ye Bai said it casually, but to Ye Yue, her actions were like challenging the most powerful figure. It was simply courting death!
"Ye Bai, tell me clearly. What on earth did the Lord ask you to do?"
However, Ye Bai remained unmoved and only told him not to ask too many questions.
Inside the house, Tang Youyou was still reading by the lamp. Reading the books Ye Yue gave her and combining them with her previous knowledge, she had a thorough understanding of all the medicinal herbs in the world.
After three days of painstaking study, Tang Youyou had finally opened the door to the grand occasion of medicine. Coupled with modern medical knowledge, her medical skills were extremely excellent!
It was already the third day when she went out again.
A number of servants came from afar. Each of them was holding a wooden tray with clothes and jewelry on it. Every item was of the highest quality.
Tang Youyou touched the fabric and looked at the old nurse who came. "Nurse, why are these things sent to me? Is there something going on recently?"
Hearing this, the nurse shook her head and smiled. "Mr. Tang may not know that a few days ago, the Emperor issued an imperial edict, conferring the title of Imperial Censor on you. Today, the Emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty has come for a royal marriage. He thought it would be a good idea to combine your happy occasion with this joyous event for the whole country to celebrate and bring good luck."
This left Tang Youyou completely confused. She thought those ministers that day were just lying to her, but it turned out to be true!
However, the nurse mentioned a royal marriage!
Who was getting married?
Could it be that Rong Xun was going to have a royal marriage?
That didn't make sense. How could the king of a country travel all the way to become someone else's husband? It was so unreasonable.
"Does the nurse know who is getting married?"
"Of course it's our prince from the Western Regions who is going to marry the princess of the Great Ming Dynasty."
The princess of the Great Ming Dynasty? How come she didn't know about it?
In the Great Ming Dynasty, there were only a few concubines in the harem. There were no other women.
Rong Xun had had a harem for so long, but none of the concubines had conceived. Oh no, the only one with a child was in her belly.
Recently, as the child in her belly was growing, her belly was slightly bulging. Fortunately, the ancient clothes could cover it, so no one could tell.
But as time went by, it would be hard to say.
After much thought, Tang Youyou changed into a blue dress, tied up her long hair, and put on a golden hair crown, which was very imposing and attracted the attention of many women.
Following the nurse's guidance, Tang Youyou carefully entered the main hall. Looking at the people in the hall, they were all constantly drinking and toasting. It was clearly just flattery.
Tang Youyou sat in her seat. As soon as she looked up, she could see Rong Jiangyu sitting on the upper seat.
Seeing this cunning old fox smiling at her, she shivered all over.
This man was a terrifying existence for her, even just a smile from him.
No one could match his depth of scheming.
In the plot, this man was a heartless, unfilial and treacherous villain!
Now, he had become the king of a country in the Western Regions. It was really a big joke.
Mocking in her heart, she picked up the wine pot and poured herself a cup of peach blossom wine. The peach blossom wine was very fragrant. Knowing that she couldn't hold her liquor, she just took a small sip.
However, just this one sip made her feel a little dizzy.
But how could just a small sip make her feel so hot all over? Could it be that the person above had done something to the wine and put something in it?
Tang Youyou picked up the glass again and gently smelled the fragrance in it. There was a hint of musk mixed with the peach blossom fragrance.
Good! This man must be after the fetus in her belly. Besides using the method of killing two lives with one stone, he was also very good at framing others.
This man must have known her identity and wanted to use her life to start a war between the two countries. His plan was really clever.
Tang Youyou quietly took out a pill from her bosom and put it into the glass when no one was paying attention.
The pill dissolved in water immediately and was colorless and odorless. There was no difference from the original wine at all.
After doing all this, Tang Youyou just sat quietly on the chair, waiting for Rong Xun's arrival.
Looking at the crowd gathered at the door, Tang Youyou guessed that it must be Rong Jiangyu. According to Rong Xun's character, being late was like being early. He probably wouldn't come back until the banquet was halfway through.
Under everyone's gaze, Rong Jiangyu walked step by step towards the upper seat.
He looked down at the people below and then at Tang Youyou who was closest to him. He glanced at the glass of wine filled to the brim in front of Tang Youyou and secretly smiled to himself.
He said, "Since everyone here has been waiting for a long time, let's start today's grand feast."
Suddenly, the music started. Tang Youyou watched as countless beautiful women passed by. They walked towards the center one by one and began to dance gracefully.
It was truly a sight: The flower - adorned dancers move like writhing dragons and snakes.
While admiring the dance of these women, Tang Youyou also looked towards the door of the banquet hall. Maybe this time Rong Xun would really take her away.
Rong Xun was her only way out.
However, she had hurt him again and again. She didn't know if he would still be willing to take her back.
Even if he did take her back, it would just be moving from one place to another. It would be better not to change at all.
Thinking of this, Tang Youyou's eyes became more determined. In this matter, it was better to rely on herself than on others.
She looked at the glass on the table, picked it up, and drank it all in one gulp.
On the stage, Rong Jiangyu saw Tang Youyou looking absent - minded, and there was no change in his expression.
