"Old madam, please calm down." Dr. Xu persuaded him softly: "You have always been unswerving, but now you are anxious and angry. If you can't rest peacefully, once your heart is hurt, Zi Ning will spend all his life learning to fear.
There is nothing we can do.”
Mrs. Gong was shocked to realize that she had lost her usual dignified manner due to her anger, so she took a deep breath to suppress the rising anger in her heart, and instantly returned to her usual kind and gentle face. She waved her hand for everyone to leave, leaving only Xu Zining and the four of them.
A personal maid.
Glancing sideways at Xiangcui, Xiangcui carried the brocade box to the inner room.
Here, Mrs. Gong held Xu Zining's hand, hiding her inner sadness and annoyance, and said kindly: "Thanks to you being here today, otherwise I would have had a hard time with my old bones. You are really a lucky star sent to me by God."
More than a year ago, she suddenly suffered from a serious illness, and the doctors in Jiuyuan County were helpless. Seeing that she was about to die, 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 been practicing medicine for generations, and Xu Zining has been learning medical skills from his father since he was a child. On that day, he happened to be invited to treat a doctor, Mr. Dong, a wealthy gentleman two streets away from the palace.
After hearing from the servants of Dong's Mansion that Xu Zining had cured Mr. Dong's serious illness, the housekeeper invited Xu Zining to the Prince's Mansion.
Originally, she and her son did not believe that a young girl from the countryside could cure a serious disease that even doctors who had been practicing medicine for decades could not do anything about.
But facts speak louder than words. After seven days, not only was her illness cured, her head was no longer dizzy, her eyesight was no longer blurry, and she felt as refreshed as if she had suddenly become more than ten years younger. This shows Xu Zining's medical skills.
Outstanding.
After that, she sent someone to secretly investigate Xu Zining, which proved that Xu Zining was indeed innocent and well-behaved. She liked Xu Zining, who had always regretted not having a daughter or granddaughter, so she would invite Xu Zining to the palace as a guest every now and then. Gradually, she also began to trust him.
Secretly, she hoped that Xu Zining would become the hero's wife and her granddaughter-in-law, so she brought Xu Zining to the palace three months before the hero came back.
"The old lady is exaggerating." Xu Zining said with an apologetic smile: "It is Zi Ning's duty to help the world and save people. Besides, the old lady was very kind to Zi Ning, but Zi Ning failed to cure the prince's old illness.
I’m really ashamed and upset.”
Gently patting the back of Xu Zining's hand, Mrs. Gong said with a kind face: "This is none of your business. The prince is so ill that medicine has long been useless. You don't need to blame yourself. By the way, Zining, how old are you this year?"
"Back to Madam, Zi Ning has just turned eighteen."
"Have you ever been married or engaged in marriage?"
When Xu Zining heard this, a faint blush suddenly appeared on her beautiful face, she lowered her head slightly and said shyly: "Not yet."
"Very good."
Mrs. Gong's slender eyes flashed with a strange, calculating light. When she saw Xu Zining suddenly raised his head and looked at her in confusion, she quickly put away the strange look on her face and eyes, pretending to be cordial and inquired: "This is the first time I see you.
Just think
We are a perfect match. After getting along with each other for more than a year, you are not only knowledgeable, gentle and careful, but also have extraordinary medical skills. I like you more and more. I always think about how great it would be if you were my grandson-in-law, but I don’t know if you are willing?"
"Old Madam..." Xu Zining lowered his head shyly, his cheeks as white as cream turned rose red, and under the sunlight, they seemed as pure and charming as hibiscus. His singing voice made people feel like
Chiruzui: "But isn't the prince missing?"
Although Gong Yuanhao completely blocked the news, 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 the old lady has a grandson?
Realizing that she had made a mistake, Madam Gong pretended to cough: "I was talking about a hero."
Upon hearing this, the blush on Xu Zining's face condensed and then disappeared. His lips kept moving for a long time before he stuttered: "Old... old lady can't be... want a son...
Zi Ning..."A ghost marriage?"
Obviously, Mrs. Gong meant exactly this. She held Xu Zining's hand tightly and did not allow her to escape: "Zi Ning, please listen to what I have to say. Although Yingjie has outstanding appearance, he is indecisive and cannot achieve great success. The prince is seriously ill and will die soon, and I can only
It's just using them to block the heroes, my beloved grandson, from open and secret attacks. In the end, it will only be the heroes who will be honored with the title of Ninth Five-Year Plan, and you are the one I consider to be the best candidate for the queen."
Although Xiangcui and the others had known Madam Gong's thoughts for a long time, they did not expect that Madam Xu would actually marry Miss Xu to the Second Young Master in secret, and they were all shocked for a moment.
"But the second young master..." Xu Zining was also shocked.
"I hate that Mu Qingyun actually killed the hero and ruined my hope. I will never let it go!" Mrs. Gong's face was cold and cold, and her eyes were shining with bloodthirsty murderous intent and some kind of crazy meaning: "
Even if I lose my son or my grandson, it doesn’t matter to me. As long as I am still alive, the country of Jin will belong to me sooner or later. I just want to show the world that women can also control the country!"
Xu Zining's eyes widened and he stared blankly at the sinister and arrogant Mrs. Gong, feeling inexplicably horrified.
It turns out that this is what the old lady had in mind! No wonder she was superficially concerned about the prince's condition, but actually didn't care, and was even more indifferent to the prince's disappearance.
"But Zi Ning has just turned eighteen, and he doesn't want to spend his long life living...as a widow!"
"Confused!" Hearing the struggle and relaxation in Xu Zining's tone, Mrs. Gong's smile disappeared briefly: "Once you become the wife of a hero, you will become a member of my Gong family. Wait for a hundred years after you die.
, you are naturally the legitimate heir to the throne. By then, you can have any kind of man or as many men as you want. If anyone dares to stop you and oppose you, no one from your nine other clans will dare to say a word!"
Seeing that Xu Zining's face was still pale and hesitant, Mrs. Gong knew that these words must have frightened her. After all, she was born in a rural area and was inevitably timid, so she softened her tone slightly and said, "I already regard you as a
I am the only one who can tell you this, and you can rest assured that as long as I am here, I will protect you and no one will touch you at all, and I will also give your people endless glory and wealth!"
"But the Ninth Princess..."
"Don't mention that bitch Mu Qingyun to me!"
Coldly interrupting Xu Zining's unfinished words, Mrs. Gong said in a cryptic manner: "On the day when I sit on the throne, I will skin and cramp that bitch, and let her soul fly away and be annihilated forever, and she will never be reincarnated! I might as well tell you, in my hands,
But it’s not just the power of Jiuyuan County, that bitch wants to defeat me, she’s just wishful thinking!”
Listening to Mrs. Gong's rebellious words and deeds, Xu Zining felt cold sweat all over his body. He lowered his head and clasped his hands on his knees. After a long time, he whispered in a low voice: "Old Madam, this matter concerns Zining after all.
In this life, please allow Zining to think about it again, okay?"
"Report to the old lady..."
Just as Mrs. Gong opened her mouth to say something, the housekeeper suddenly ran over with a hurried expression, hunched over and said tremblingly: "The guards just came to report that the 200,000-strong army that attacked Liyang County last night was completely wiped out. The prince was busy talking to the generals.
We are discussing countermeasures, but we really can’t get away from going back home. If there is anything we can ask the old lady to handle on her own!"
"What did you say?"
Mrs. Gong was furious, and she was so frightened that the housekeeper and Xiang Cui fell to their knees on the ground with a thump, 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 see his son for the last time to arrange the funeral arrangements. He actually made excuses. Is this what he should be like as a father? Does he still have an old age in his eyes?"
"The prince said that the prince is still alive and well. If anyone dares to take the opportunity to spread rumors and cause trouble and affect the situation in the city, the prince will...severely punish without mercy!" The butler finished speaking bravely, feeling like he was sweating.
The cold sweat has already wet the skirt of my clothes.
Suddenly standing up from the soft couch, Mrs. Gong's face became extremely ugly, and the temperature in the room suddenly dropped to freezing point with the cold air bursting out from her body: "Okay, okay, this is the good son I have raised.
He even refused to acknowledge his biological son, which is really good!"
The housekeeper and Xiangcui were all shocked and murmured in their hearts: From the beginning to the end, the prince did not acknowledge the second young master at all.
"Go and tell the prince, if he doesn't come back immediately, I will..."
Mrs. Gong was giving orders to the housekeeper when she suddenly noticed a vaguely familiar scent in the air. She couldn't help but said in her mind: "I will die in front of him so that the world will know how unfilial he is!"
"Old Madam..." If this matter spreads, the prince will be disgraced! The housekeeper and Xiang Cui all looked up at Madam Gong.
"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 should also step back. No one is allowed to come in without my order!"
"Slave (Zi Ning), please leave!" He glanced at Mrs. Gong without revealing any traces. Xu Zining and Xiang Cui exited the room and closed the door tightly.
Looking at the gray figure that suddenly appeared in the room, Mrs. Gong asked with a coquettish look on her face: "Why are you here?"
The old man was about fifty years old, with thick eyebrows and a square face. Although he was dusty, his handsome appearance was not impaired at all. He stared at Mrs. Gong with a pair of bright eyes. Without answering, he asked: "Is something wrong with Xiong'er?"
Woolen cloth?"
"Yes!" Mrs. Gong didn't hide anything. After leading the old man to the inner room, she pointed at the brocade box on the table and said sadly: "Our hero is right there!"
In the Yanqing Palace of the Imperial Palace, the imperial concubine reclined on a soft couch and admired the scenery in the courtyard.
"Why did your people kill those thousands of soldiers?"
