Chapter 401 Another plan
Guyu prepared his pen and ink and spread out
Danzhen said, "It is most appropriate for the queen to name the young lady and the young master. The queen has also taken great pains to ensure that the young master and the young lady are born safely."
Lin Junxue picked up the pen and wrote the word "bright moon"
Qiao Xin Dao "Ming Yue"
Lin Junxue said calmly, "The moon shines brightly over the sea, and the pearls shed tears. The sun shines warmly over the blue field, and the jade emits smoke. I named this child Mingyue, hoping that she will be like the bright moon and have a smooth life."
Then, she wrote down "Chenbai" again.
"The boy will be named Chenbai, and I hope he will be as tenacious as pine and cypress."
Guyu comes forward
"Chenbai, Mingyue, the names of the young master and the young lady really match each other. I will keep these words and send them out tomorrow. I think the old general, the deputy general, and the young lady will definitely like these two names."
Lin Junxue nodded and said, "Put it away."
Lin Junxue then instructed Danzhen to go to Taiwu Hall and invite Xie Yu to come for dinner.
At night
Xie Yu arrived at Zhonghe Palace
Lin Junxue walked forward with a smile on her face, with a smile in the corners of her eyes.
Xie Yu was in a good mood too.
"Your Majesty's Blessing"
Xie Yu helped Lin Junxue up and said with a smile, "Jun'er, this morning, I got the news that Ye Yushuang gave birth to a girl. Your Lin family has an heir."
Lin Junxue smiled on the surface, but Xie Yu lied so fluently.
Judging from their speed, the secret guards must have arrived in Kyoto a day earlier than the messenger.
Xie Yu clearly knew it yesterday, but now he says he only found out about it today.
"My sister-in-law gave birth to a daughter. I am very happy. That's why I asked Danzhen to invite you. I wanted to celebrate with you, Your Majesty. The daughter is good, thoughtful and sensible. My father and brother are away all year round, and my sister-in-law is alone in the general's mansion. Now, she is finally born. From now on, there will be a little girl by my side every day. This is great."
Seeing Lin Junxue so happy, Xie Yu took her hand and sat down.
"Jun'er, you are anxious to see this little niece. If you are anxious, why don't I issue an order to let Ye Yushuang bring her daughter back to Kyoto immediately. After arriving in Kyoto, you can summon her to bring the child to the palace. What do you think?"
Lin Junxue really wanted to smile and slap Xie Yu twice for this bullshit suggestion.
Ye Yushuang had just given birth to a child a few days ago and hadn’t even finished her confinement yet, but Xie Yu still wanted to issue an order to let Ye Yushuang return to the palace.
The exhaustion from the journey of a thousand miles must have cost Ye Yushuang half her life.
However, since Xie Yu brought it up, she could take the opportunity to make plans for Ye Yushuang again.
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? My sister-in-law just gave birth to a child. If I return to Kyoto now, wouldn't it be selfish of me to ruin the happiness of my brother and sister-in-law's family? We finally got this child, so naturally my father and brother should love him first."
paused
Lin Junxue stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have something I would like to ask for your grace."
"What's the matter? Jun'er, just tell me."
"Your Majesty, after my sister-in-law gave birth to the child, according to the rules, she should have returned to Kyoto. However, my sister-in-law has been separated from my brother for many years, and she has been supporting the general's mansion alone. It is also hard, but she has never complained. I always feel that I owe my sister-in-law a little. For the Lin family, my sister-in-law has done her best, and I have seen it all. I would like to ask Your Majesty to issue an order this time, allowing my sister-in-law to follow the army for three years, right at the frontier, by my brother's side. I beg Your Majesty to show mercy."
Xie Yu hesitated for a few seconds
Lin Junxue just looked at Xie Yu very cautiously and then continued speaking.
"Your Majesty, I have entered the palace and have your love and care. I can live with my beloved forever, but my sister-in-law has seen her brother only a few times in the past ten years. Now, she has risked her life to give birth to a child for the Lin family. I just want to ask for your grace this time. I hope Your Majesty will grant it."
Xie Yu looked at Lin Junxue, his eyes full of emotions.
The word "beloved" made Xie Yu's heart beat faster for some reason.
"Jun'er, what you are asking for is reasonable. For your sake, I will issue an order tomorrow to allow Ye Yushuang to accompany the child to the army for three years. This can be regarded as a reward for the father-in-law and Xu Xuan's hard work in guarding the border for many years. Jun'er, are you satisfied?"
Lin Junxue came forward, sat next to Xie Yu, pulled his sleeve, and smiled.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
After not touching Lin Junxue for many days, Xie Yu was already a little eager to make a move when he saw her like this.
Lin Junxue curled her lips
"Your Majesty, is it okay to wait until dinner is over?"
Xie Yu looked at Lin Junxue, whose face was blushing, with a deep gaze.
"Okay, let's have dinner first."
midnight
Lin Junxue turned her head and looked at Xie Yu who was lying on the bed, lost in his own fantasy.
This Danzhen incense is really good to use. Well, I'll just keep using it.
Second day
Xie Yu then issued an imperial decree to have it sent to the border at an expedited speed of 800 miles.
When the Queen Mother learned about this, she was very dissatisfied.
Now that the queen is in favor, the emperor has even given such grace to the Lin family.
Join the army?
The emperor has been so bewitched by the bitch, the queen, that he has lost his mind.
However, even if the Queen Mother was angry, she had to hold it in and not show it.
And things that made the Queen Mother even more angry happened one after another.
The eldest princess' back injury has been there for several months since she was caned last time.
Although it has healed, one area still festers again and again.
Yesterday, the maid from the Princess's mansion came into the palace and said that the Princess was suffering greatly from the ulcer that had been causing her temper every day in the mansion.
The Queen Mother didn't care about anything else. When she heard that her beloved daughter was suffering like this, she immediately issued an order
Since the imperial physician can't cure it, we'll find a miracle doctor among the people. Anyone who can cure the ulcer on the princess's back will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold.
In recent days, the most lively topic in Kyoto is this matter. Who can cure the eldest princess's illness? Get the thousand taels of gold.
After Xie Yu learned about this, he summoned the imperial physician and asked him a few questions, intending to punish the imperial physician for incompetence.
The imperial physician was frightened and of course had to defend himself. Only then did Xie Yu understand why this happened.
It turned out that it was not that the imperial physician's medical skills were not good, but that the eldest princess indulged in drinking and pursuing men while recuperating.
This led to repeated use of medication, but no improvement, it was all my own fault.
After Xie Yu knew this was the reason, he was so angry that he just ignored it.
The Queen Mother waited for two days, but Xie Yu did not come to care about the Princess and she was very angry.
She got so angry in her own palace that she accidentally scratched Qin Shushu with the broken pieces of a porcelain bottle.
Ci'an Palace
Qin Shushu wiped the blood off her forehead with a handkerchief and knelt on the ground respectfully.
"Your Highness, it was my carelessness. It has nothing to do with you. I am just clumsy. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
The Queen Mother's complexion is better.
"Alright, you are sensible. Get up, go back to the palace first, and ask the imperial physician to take a look. Don't worry, you have been serving me for many days, and I will not treat you unfairly."
Qin Shushu stood up and said, "I'm leaving."
Ning'an Palace
Qin Shushu looked at the wound in the mirror, and a sinister smile slowly appeared at the corner of her lips.
Then, she picked up the powder again and deliberately covered the wound on her forehead.
