When Yue Zhan requested the emperor to grant him a marriage, he already knew of Lin Mo’s existence..
But he also knew that Lin Mo’s mother was on a hunger strike and forced Lin Mo not to marry Jing Hua.
Then he might as well marry her!
After dealing with the Longxi king, he would rather not have this military rank that had been passed down from generation to generation, and also want to protect Jing Hua.
However, Jinghua kept sending letters back to Chang ‘an, asking for peace. What he received was Jinghua telling him that the shuttlecock that she protected with her life was Lin Mo’s first gift to her.
At that time, Yue Zhan realized that he was a joke.
Jinghua didn’t need his protection at all. This silly princess would rather fall in love with the weak scholar Lin Mo than him.
Yue Zhan didn’t want to be the person who hurt Jinghua, so he had to let her go and let her go back to Chang ‘an. However, he still couldn’t let go of the girl that he had protected for years.
He had been paying attention to Chang ‘an and knew that Lin Mo didn’t treat her well. He knew that she had taken in many facemasks, and all of them looked like Lin Mo. .
“Yue Zhan, Yue Zhan!”
Yue Zhan heard old madam Yue’s voice and came back to his senses. “Mother, what’s the matter?”
“Qin Miao Miao can’t go on like this without taking medicine.
“I’ll go to the palace and ask the empress to tell me how to prepare the medicinal cuisine. You take good care of Miao Miao.”
“Okay.”Yue Zhan agreed.
Old Madam Yue called Yue Zhu over and went into the palace together.
Yue Zhan heard Qin Miaomiao’s murmurs and called out for his mother.
Yue Zhan could not help but overlap the pale-faced her with Jing Hua, who was in a daze in the small temple hall at that time.
Thinking back to last night, when she threw herself into his arms, Yue Zhan’s heart was a little chaotic.
He thought back to last night, the moment she hugged him, he felt his breathing suffocate. This feeling had never appeared on Jing Hua before..
For a moment, he could not tell if he really loved Jing Hua, or if he felt more pity than affection?
..
It was the time to take a break in the Changle Palace.
When Lu Chen was still resting, he had accompanied Qiao Jinniang to take a break in the afternoon. However, as he rested, his mood changed..
Qiao jinniang said softly, “You’re His Majesty now. Why are you still fooling around in broad daylight like you did in Lin ‘an?”
“Even though being an emperor means that you can’t have a loving couple in the day…”
Before Lu Chen could finish his sentence, Yu Yan’s soft voice came from the door, “Your Highness, Old Madam Yue is kneeling at the palace door saying that she has something urgent to see you.”
Qiao Jin said, “The rain has just stopped outside and the ground is filled with water. Let Her in quickly.”
Lu Chen said, “Let’s Rest first.”
Qiao Jin stood up and said, “If old madam Yue didn’t have something urgent to do, she wouldn’t be kneeling at the palace entrance at this time.”
Lu Chen frowned and thought that it would be best if old madam Yue really had something urgent to do. If not, no matter what Yue Zhan did, he would still give Yue Zhan a marriage to let old madam Yue have some things to do so that she wouldn’t have to come into the palace from time to time.
Lady Qiao received old Madam Yue.
Old Madam Yue knelt down and said, “It is not right to disturb the empress. However, Qin Miaomiao was caught in the rain last night. His high fever did not subside and he suffered from a serious cold.
Because of his family’s decline, he often suffered from hunger in the southwest, causing his spleen and stomach to become weak.
Right now, he would spit out whatever medicine he drank, and he could not take any medicine. He had been in a daze for a long time.
Hearing from the imperial physician that the Empress knew how to make medicinal cuisine, I dared to ask the Empress for a recipe.”
Lu Chen said, “There are many high-ranking officials and nobles in Chang ‘an who have cooks who know how to make medicinal cuisine. Are you bothering the empress over such a small matter? Or do you see the Empress as a Cook?”
Old Madam Yue repeatedly kowtowed and said, “I dare not.”
Under her sleeves, Lady Qiao fiercely pinched Lu Chen.
The wealth of the Yue family did not last long. Old Madam Yue was only the daughter of a small family in Longxi. How would she know that the cook of many prestigious families in Chang ‘an knew medicinal cuisine.
Lady Qiao said, “Old Madam Yue is just worried about saving people. Please forgive Her Majesty.
Old Madam Yue, you don’t have to worry. I’ll let Bai Sichen follow you to the Yue family. Bai sichen’s medicinal cuisine is delicious and protects the stomach.
“If you still can’t eat it, you can come to the palace to look for me and think of a way.”
Old Madam Yue thanked her profusely.
When they left the palace, Yue Zhu whispered to old madam Yue:
“Mother, I heard that His Majesty has always been a gentle and refined gentleman. When he was angry just now, it scared me to death. Fortunately, the empress was not angry.”
Thinking about it now, old madam Yue also felt that she was impulsive. It was just that she came from a small place. When she heard the imperial physician say so, she only knew that the empress knew medicinal cuisine.
However, old madam Yue did not regret it. She finally had a way to save Qin Miaomiao.
In the Changle Palace.
Qiao Jin said to Lu Chen unhappily, “Old Madam Yue is already so old. Why are you blaming her?
She has only met Qin Miaomiao a few times, it is already rare for her to be willing to enter the palace for Qin Miaomiao.”
Lu Chen said, “Didn’t Qin Miaomiao not want to marry Yue Zhan?
If she knew that old madam Yue entered the palace to ask for medicinal cuisine for her and was scolded by me, would she be so moved that she would marry me?”
“Lu Chen, did you peek at my book again?”Qiao Jinniang asked.
Lu Chen said softly, “Zhou Siming’s last wish was to treat Qin miaomiao well. If she can get this family member, I think Zhou Siming will be able to rest in peace.”
..
It was precisely because Bai Sichen was a good cook that he rose to fame in the palace.
He made a bowl of herbal porridge and fed it to Qin Miaomiao. Finally, Qin Miaomiao stopped spitting out the medicine.
Bai Sichen did not return to the palace immediately. Instead, he stayed at the Yue residence to Nurse Qin Miaomiao for three days.
He only returned to the palace to report to the Empress when he had recovered and was able to take the medicine.
Qin Miaomiao was already able to get out of bed. When he delivered Bai sichen, he naturally thanked her profusely:
“Thank you, Bai Sichen.”
Bai sichen said, “Miss Qin, you don’t have to be so polite. I was only following the Empress’orders. If you want to thank her, you should thank Madam Yue.”
Bai sishi then told Qin Miaomiao about how old Madam Yue had entered the palace to ask for medicinal food for Qin Miaomiao and how Lu Chen had reprimanded her.
When Qin Miaomiao heard this, she was extremely touched. She had thought that other than her mother, no one else would treat her like this.
Qin Miaomiao then went to old madam Yue’s courtyard and knelt down. “I will never forget old Madam Yue’s great kindness to me.”
Qin Miaomiao really did not know how to repay old Madam Yue’s kindness by entering the palace to beg the Empress for an unimportant person.
Old Madam Yue helped Qin miaomiao up and said, “Miaomiao, you have yet to recover from your serious illness. There is no need for you to give me such a great gift. I have only done what I should have done.
Silly Child, don’t give me such a great gift. Didn’t you say that you are my goddaughter? “It is only right for godmother to do so.
“If you are willing, in a few days, when you have recovered from your illness, we will hold a ceremony to recognize you as my goddaughter. Let the ladies and nobles of Chang ‘an come and witness you as my goddaughter. ”…”
Qin Miaomiao threw herself into old madam Yue’s embrace and said, “Mother.”
The moment Yue Zhan entered old madam Yue’s courtyard, he heard Qin Miaomiao call out ‘mother’, and he was shocked!
He wasn’t sure what he was thinking, but Qin Miaomiao had already called him ‘mother’?
Old Madam Yue saw Yue Zhan enter and said, “Tomorrow is the lantern festival. The 18th day of the first lunar month is a good day. Why don’t we invite the guests on that day…”.
Before she could finish, Yue Zhan said in shock, “The 18th day of the first lunar month is not an auspicious day for marriage. Furthermore, it’s only a few days. Do you have time to prepare for the wedding?”
