The Ministry of History
"Thank you, Your Highness. I shall drink this cup of ginger wine to your health."
Ginger Yan was a straightforward person. After speaking, he didn't give Yun An an opportunity to speak and downed another cup of wine.
"Ginger is a rough person, and used to have many prejudices against Lady Yi. Here, Ginger apologizes to Lady Yi and drinks."
After how many drinks, Jiang Yan toasted with a carefree air. Bei Chen Rongrong chuckled beside him. This couple's polite... demeanor made Yun Anan extremely uncomfortable.
"The Grand Historian's words are too heavy for me... I truly can't drink any more."
With every sip of her drink, she found herself longing for Barrett back home. She couldn't bring herself to enjoy the alcohol.
"No need to say more, no need to say more. If it weren't for the Yi Wangfu, my wife and Cheng’er might… well, never mind. Today, regardless of what, we must drink until we are tipsy, cheers!"
Between sips of wine, another cup was drained. Jiang Yan drank with gusto, no matter what he said, leaving Yun An'an to suffer the consequences.
"My husband, please don't drink too much. Rong'er still has something to tell Lady Yi."
"Oh oh oh~ How could I forget about Rong'er I deserve a beating!"
When it comes to being a devoted husband, Beichen Yi is truly deserving of the title "First of the Seven Kingdoms." As for Ginger Yan, there's simply no one else who compares.
Yun'an learned the love story of Jiang Yan and Bei Chen Rong Rong from Old Wang Ye. As the only princess of Bei Chen Kingdom, marrying Jiang Yan, who was over ten years older than her, was truly puzzling.
But after these two encounters, she came to feel that Bei Chen Rongrong was a woman of foresight.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, Ginger may appear to be a rigid official who sticks to rules and regulations, sometimes even adhering to outdated practices, it is precisely this steadfast character that makes him most admirable.
"My lady, your body hasn't fully recovered yet. Let me rub it for you."
"Good, thank you husband."
Having just finished his drink, Jiang Yan directly squatted beside Bei Chen Rongrong, gently kneading her body with both hands, for fear of hurting his beloved.
"My husband drank too much wine. Luckily, today is the wife of Lord Yi, if it were someone else, I'm afraid people would laugh at you."
"The madam said, 'Why don't you go inside and rest We can talk about whatever it is with Princess Yi in your bedroom.'"
Jiang Yan looked at Bei Chen Rong Rong with heartache.
"Sounds good."
Bei Chen Rongrong very naturally placed both hands on Jiang Yan's shoulders. The loving affection between the couple made people envious. Yun An'an experienced the feeling of being shown off for the first time.
Isn't she and Beichen Yi also like this
According to custom, women after childbirth are not allowed to go out and need to stay indoors for confinement. However, the prescription given by Yun An'an clearly states that postpartum women should not lie in bed for a long time.
The main concern is wound adhesions, which would be a hassle later on.
"If you need anything, just call me. Your husband is waiting for you outside the door."
"Okay, no more drinking."
"Very well, my husband won't drink."
Jiang Yan closed the door, leaving only Yun An'an, Bei Chen Rongrong, and her personal maidservant in the bedroom.
"Qingtao."
Yes, princess.
Qingtao is Bei Chen Rongrong's maid, and she has been by her side since she was a child.
"Your Highness, this is a gift from the princess as a thank you."
A brownish wooden box, the box wasn't anything special, but what was inside piqued Yun An'an's curiosity.
Besides being bound by the poison of life and death, she had no other ailments.
That day, Princess Yi left in a hurry, and besides, these days this palace has been recuperating.
Smiling and apologizing, Beichen Rongrong's gaze fell on the brown wooden box in Yun An'an's hands.
"This palace learned of Princess Yi's illness from others and specially had someone bring some little trinkets."
Three small white porcelain bottles lay quietly inside the box. Each bottle contained a pale blue liquid that gave off a faint, sweet fragrance.
Sniffing the aroma emanating from the liquid, Yun Anan judged its composition.
To be honest, I feel ashamed. Princess Yiwang has been kind to me and Cheng'er, but throughout the entire Northern Star Country, I could only find three bottles of Phoenix Orchid incense.
"Bird's Nest Perfume"
She had heard of the name, but this herb that only existed in books was actually real.
"Well, Phoenix Orchid Incense. This palace also learned about the existence of Phoenix Orchid Incense by chance, so I ordered my people to bring all three remaining bottles to you without stopping."
Fenglanxiang is a plant unique to Beichen Country and lives in extremely harsh cold conditions. It only grows one plant every hundred years, and it has great medicinal value.
"Although these three bottles only contain the juice of phoenix orchid leaves, they have a suppressing effect on the deadly poison in your body. If anything unexpected happens, just drink one bottle to suppress the symptoms when the deadly poison attacks."
It's obvious that Bei Chen Rongrong knows about Yun Anan and Han Qing's life-and-death Gu. As for how she knows, Yun Anan doesn't care.
What she really wanted to know was something else.
Could the princess please tell us where she found the Phoenix Flower incense
"On Baiyun Mountain, at Black Cloud City on the border of Beichen Kingdom, but…"
"She stopped mid-sentence, taking a deep breath. ",
"When I ordered my people to look for her, they found that all traces of the Fenlan incense on Baiyun Mountain had been erased. It seems someone did this deliberately."
Whether those who also sought the scent of phoenix orchids were targeting Yun An'an is unknown.
It can be certain that there will be no more Phalaenopsis orchids in the north star country, unless a hundred years from now.
The three bottles of phoenix essence, the only ones available, can save lives thrice. They absolutely cannot be wasted.
Thank you.
"There's no need for formalities between you and me. You saved me, this is what I should do."
For Yun An'an, the Phoenix orchid was an unexpected gain. She also has to thank Old Wang Ye for it. If it weren't for Old Wang connecting them, she wouldn't have this opportunity today.
After a brief chat with Beichen Rongrong, Yun An'an, under the enthusiastic farewell of Jiang Yan, boarded the carriage and left Shangshu Mansion.
The sound of hooves drumming echoed in her ears, Yun An'an carefully guarded the life-saving medicine.
The harvest of the past two days has been abundant. Barrett, Phalaenopsis orchid, if you can solve the puzzle of the deathly Gu, it would be even better.
The carriage came to a stop, and Yun An'an hopped into Yiwangfu with glee, humming a little tune.
"Sister, you sit at the bow of the boat, brother, I'll walk on shore. With love and affection, we sway gently."
Little sister, I sit at the bow of the boat, brother, you walk on the shore~
Our love, our intimacy, swaying on the silken thread!
While singing, Yun An'an didn't notice a group of people sitting in the courtyard.
"The princess consort has such refined taste. I didn't know the princess consort would sing songs from foreign lands."
Beichen Han half-closed his phoenix eyes, smiling sinisterly, at least in Yun An'an's view, extremely eerie.
"Yun'ya, where did you learn this song The lyrics are a bit common, but the tune is quite pleasant."
Old King stood with his teacup, watching Yun An'an with evident interest.
There are other people in the yard, some she knows and some she doesn't!
Oh my god, this is so embarrassing! I'm totally humiliated!tle Jade, don't get married for a while. Use this money to prepare some good dowry."Ming Shu has a daughter who couldn't find a good husband because she was blind.Yunan An also checked Xiaoyu'er's eye...
