Zhou Ying was handling affairs in the East Palace when she saw He Xiang coming in to report.

"Master, there is something going on in Qinghui Garden."

Hexiang said solemnly after bowing.

"What's up?"

Zhou Ying raised her head from the account book and asked.

"His Royal Highness went directly to Qinghui Garden after going to court and took Ding Liangyuan out of the palace."

He Xiang looked indignant and didn't take Yongning Palace seriously.

Zhou Ying's face changed a bit, she clasped her hands together and squeezed. She calmed down when she remembered her mother's words, "Go and find out why they left the palace. Don't alert others."

"Yes. Master, Ding Liangyuan is really not a simple person. Should we give her some clues? There is no movement from the person who bribed her. She obviously failed. It seems that Ding Liangyuan needs a beating."

Zhou Ying sighed and shook her head, "Your Highness especially doesn't like this kind of behavior. I have made many mistakes. If I continue to make mistakes, I won't even be able to maintain my dignity. Let's take a look first and then talk about it."

She felt so sad but had to press it down. His Highness did not trust her at all, and was even very wary of Yongning Palace. The best way now is to do nothing. If you take care of the East Palace, you might be able to save it.

He Xiang was silent for a moment and retreated unwillingly.

Aunt Qi took a step forward and said, "My dear, I think I don't have to worry if I go out in such an open and honest manner. I should have something important to do, otherwise I should disguise myself to avoid people."

"Don't worry, Mom, I won't do anything."

Zhou Ying pursed her lips. No matter what she wanted to do, His Highness would beat her back mercilessly. What else could she do?

"What we need to do now is just to be stable. We need to take things slowly and strive to have a child as soon as possible."

Aunt Qi said it with great sincerity.

Zhou Ying smiled bitterly, "Mom, do you think I don't want to have children? I have offended His Highness. Except for the wedding night, Your Highness has never allowed me to favor you."

"What? That's going to be bad. Madam, please don't make any more moves, otherwise we will be at a disadvantage. You must know that the Qian family has a lot of love. If they get pregnant in advance..."

Zhou Ying's eyes flashed, and she nodded heavily, "I understand."

The top priority is to have a child. With a child, she and His Highness will be able to relax to a great extent, and maybe even reconcile.

For the sake of the child, I will give myself some face. The most important thing is to secure my position as the mistress of the East Palace. This is the top priority.

Instead, Li Chengze and Huilan went to the largest restaurant together, asked for a private room, and sat inside to wait.

The Zhang siblings arrived as soon as they sat down. Chang Ji let people in, then closed the private room door and stood guard outside.

"My daughter Zhang Waner pays homage to His Highness Kang An, and pays homage to Empress Zhuang An."

"My young man, Zhang Xing, pays homage to His Highness Kang An, and to his Majesty Zhuang An."

"Get up, no need to be polite. Lan'er is very curious about you and wants to let Gu Dai meet you."

Li Chengze said hello with a smile.

Zhang Xing stepped forward and clasped his fists in salute, "I would like to thank you for the medicinal bath. I have never had the chance to thank you.

I have used it with great effect, and my grandfather asked me to kowtow to you to express my gratitude. If it is of any use to me in the future, I will never hesitate to die."

After saying that, he knelt down and kowtowed neatly.

"Oh! This kid is so sincere. Get up quickly. Come over here and I will check your pulse.

His Highness said that you are a good candidate for martial arts and has high expectations for you, so all I can do is help you get in shape."

Huilan saw that this child was very sincere, his eyes were clear and upright, and he was upright, and she liked him very much.

Zhang Xing stood up, half-knelt on the ground, and stretched out his hand. His sister Zhang Waner immediately took out a handkerchief and put it on her brother's wrist to avoid suspicion.

"Well, he is indeed a good young man for practicing martial arts. There is nothing wrong with his health. I have a bottle of medicine here. You can take it, one pill a day. On the ninth day, you should rest for three days and then take a medicinal bath to detoxify."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the medicine."

"This is the medicine that forges the meridians, skin and bones. You should insist on soaking in the medicated bath to detoxify the medicine. You will see the benefits after a long time. People who practice martial arts must have strong meridians, skin and bones."

"Yes, I will follow your orders."

"Well, come on, let me show you. Let's go together."

Huilan waved to Zhang Wan'er and said with a smile.

Zhang Waner stepped forward and stretched out her hand, while Huilan checked her pulse.

"I have a slight uterine cold, but it's not a big problem. I'll prepare the medicine later and ask Dr. Xu to deliver it to you. Just take it as you like. You should exercise more on weekdays and don't stay indoors all the time. It's not good for your health."

"Yes, thank you, ma'am."

"Well, Brother Xing needs to practice martial arts hard. Next month I will arrange for you to study in the Imperial College."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

The two siblings immediately knelt down and thanked them, overjoyed.

"You guys go down first."

Li Chengze saw that Huilan was satisfied after meeting people, so he asked them to retreat.

Chang Ji opened the door and sent the person downstairs. At that moment, Ding Simiao went upstairs and met Zhang Waner's sister and brother face to face.

Zhang Waner blushed, lowered her head and quickly followed her brother away.

Ding Simiao then entered the room to greet Li Chengze in his heart.

"Let's get up, we're all our own, no need to be polite, sit down, you brothers and sisters haven't seen each other for a while, let's have a cup of tea together. The one just now is the eldest daughter of the Zhang family, what do you think?"

Li Chengze asked directly.

"As long as His Highness and my sister look good, Wei Chen will naturally be willing."

Ding Simiao thinks she can marry anyone.

"Brother, I think the Zhang family girl is pretty good, her eyes are firm and generous, and she is not a petty girl.

I think it's better to find you an upright and strong-willed woman to be your mistress.

Zhang Wan'er has no father, but she is the eldest sister raising her younger brothers. In this regard, many girls cannot compare to her tenacity and bravery."

"If my sister thinks it's good, then I'll make her a decision. We really need a mistress with good ideas."

"Okay, my brother is in good health these days. How is my father? Go back and ask for me. I have brought some medicines for my brother and father. You can take them back and consider them."

Huilan took out two bottles of medicine, both for health care.

"Okay, is your sister okay in the palace? You must respect the Crown Princess."

The special mention was a disguised reminder to her to be careful about Zhou Ying. This person's reputation seemed a bit too good and too perfect.

"I know, don't worry, brother, I am living a good life and have not been wronged. His Highness protects me in every way.

Now that I have been promoted and live in a separate courtyard, don't worry, it doesn't look like I'm having a bad life. I'm just waiting for the good news from my brother."

When Huilan saw Ding Simiao, she felt close to him and had a good impression. This was a strong emotion left over from her original life.

But Ding Simiao is indeed dignified in appearance, majestic and handsome, upright and upright, with a bright demeanor.

"That's good. Is the money still enough? Now my father has given me several shops to take care of. I also have a lot of money in my hand. If you need money, just ask and don't wrong yourself."

"I still have plenty of money, brother, don't worry, it's true that you take good care of yourself."

"good."
