The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.
Chapter 467: Blockade of Niaoyin Mountain
Shi Anxia and his wife acted decisively and hurried to the Minister of Works' residence to discuss the matter with someone.
Liang Yanbing had just arrived home and was talking to her husband about her plan to become a teacher, asking him if he agreed.
Gao Pinyuan was a new official and had three things to do right after taking office. He was very busy outside and when he came back... he liked to listen to his wife nagging about what she had eaten in the morning, who she had eaten with at noon, and what she was going to eat in the evening.
In fact, these are the little things they talk about every day, but Gao Pinyuan still listens with great interest.
Sometimes Liang Yanbing didn't tell him, but he would ask, "Have you made an appointment with any lady to have tea and watch a play today?" "Have your flowers bloomed?" "Can you get your rabbits to eat?"
But today the topic has changed.
His wife was also a person with a job now. He clearly saw the light in her eyes that he had not seen for a long time.
The lady said, "The princess asked me to be the instructor of Yunqi Academy, teaching medical theory. Do you agree that I should go?"
Gao Pinyuan asked in return, “Why shouldn’t I agree?”
The lady smiled hypocritically, "My husband is now a high-ranking official, and I am afraid that if I go out and show my face in public, I will bring bad things upon him."
Gao Pinyuan hated to see his wife smile more beautifully than a flower. His heart was moved for a moment. He put his arm around his wife's waist and bargained in a low voice, "I don't care whether it will bring bad luck or not, but tonight... I agree to let you go."
Liang Yanbing was busy stroking her belly, "That won't work! I'm pregnant with a baby, you just have to bear it first. Otherwise..." She stretched out her voice, "I'll find you a concubine?"
Gao Pinyuan immediately lost interest and said angrily, "What do you want a concubine for? Your husband can tolerate it. But you are not allowed to have children anymore. It will affect me..."
Liang Yanbing's face flushed red as she covered her husband's mouth and growled, "What are you yelling about? The servants are standing outside."
"Just stand there, what are you afraid of?" Gao Pinyuan was a good person in every other way, except that he was particularly fond of that kind of thing between husband and wife.
No matter how tired or sleepy I am outside, as soon as I get home and see my lovely wife, I feel full of energy and anger.
Sometimes Liang Yanbing couldn't stand it anymore and often asked her husband to get a concubine.
The more her husband didn't want a concubine, the more she liked to be generous. If Gao Pinyuan really agreed, she would have to prick his balls with a silver needle.
The couple was flirting happily in the house when they heard the doorman telling the maid outside that Princess Haiyan and her husband had arrived for a visit.
Without waiting for someone outside to come in and inform them, Gao Pinyuan and the other man hurried out.
Liang Yanbing was very puzzled. "I just came out of their house, why are they following me again? Are they worried that you won't let me be the teacher, so they want to give you a warning?"
Gao Pinyuan didn't know either, so he hurriedly asked the servants to welcome the person to the main hall first. Then he supported his wife and said carefully, "Slow down, there's no need to rush."
Liang Yanbing shook off his hand and said, "I'm fine. I'm not old or eighty and I need support." After saying that, she walked faster.
Gao Pinyuan had no choice but to chase after him, his heart in his throat, "Slow down, slow down, slow down..."
The lady walked and muttered, "The princess and I hit it off right away and got along quite well. I always felt like I knew her in my previous life."
Gao Pinyuan was annoyed, "How old is she? Even if you know each other, you two are of different generations."
"Hey, husband, do you think I'm old?" Liang Yanbing asked as they walked.
Gao Pinyuan hurriedly followed suit and bowed, "I dare not, I dare not."
I'm just speaking the truth.
When Shi Anxia and Cen Yuan saw Mr. Gao and his wife, the scene was one running in front and the other chasing behind.
Liang Yanbing stepped forward and was about to salute, but Shi Anxia held her back.
"Don't be so particular about this. You're still pregnant." Shi Anxia apologized. "Look, I chased you right after you got home. It's really urgent."
The four of them were discussing matters in the main hall. Cen Yuan briefly explained his purpose, and both Mr. Gao and his wife were stunned.
The medicinal flowers of Niaoyin Mountain are a great hazard. Can they be made into longevity ointment?
"What is Fu Shou Gao?" Gao Pinyuan didn't understand.
Liang Yanbing understood, "It's a kind of medicine that makes people unable to stop taking it. At first, it makes people feel comfortable and forget their troubles, but in fact, it gradually drains people's bodies."
But she wanted to say something good about the flower, but she heard her husband say, "I understand! No wonder I saw two people coming down the mountain one time, talking about getting rich in the future. The two people had blurry eyes and spoke incoherently. After checking, we didn't find anything strange, so we just thought they were a little crazy and let them go."
Cen Yuan said, "It seems that someone has already used this flower to make longevity cream. It hasn't caused any trouble yet, especially the dignitaries in the capital haven't had access to it. So we should control Niaoyin Mountain and convey this order to officials in various states. Once discovered, all of them should be destroyed."
Liang Yanbing frowned, feeling distressed. "But, but, what if you are wrong? That flower is actually called 'Mu Yan Flower', not a poppy. How can you be sure that the longevity cream is made of this flower?"
What's wrong with Huahua! She's pretty and can make medicine.
Cen Yuan was certain, "No doubt about it. Once the Fu Shou Gao becomes popular, all the princes and generals will become addicted, and the country will soon be destroyed."
Gao Pinyuan and his wife's eyelids both twitched.
My dear Prince Consort, can you just say that a country will be destroyed so casually?
Shi Anxia was silent for a while. "Master Gao, you are familiar with Huizhou. Is there anyone you can trust who can seal off Niaoyin Mountain? At least, no one can go up to pick flowers openly. If anyone forcibly goes up the mountain, arrest them and interrogate them."
Gao Pinyuan nodded, "General Zheng Madao, the defender of Qingcheng in Huizhou, can do it, and the other side of the mountain is their Qingcheng."
After they discussed the details, Cen Yuan left Shi Anxia in the Shangshu Mansion and went to the palace to meet the emperor with Lord Gao.
The next day, Emperor Mingde sent people on horseback to pass on the order to blockade Niuyin Mountain.
When the Queen Mother received the news, she felt dizzy.
It felt like an invisible hand was controlling everything in secret. No matter what she wanted to do, Emperor Mingde would block her way first.
She asked the man in black in a hoarse voice, "What happened yesterday? Why did Emperor Mingde suddenly order the blockade of Niaoyin Mountain?"
The man in black replied, "Mr. Cen, the Minister of Northern Propaganda, and Mr. Gao, the Minister of Works, are both going to the palace to see the emperor. The emperor sent someone to pass on the message this morning."
The two people that the Empress Dowager hates to hear about the most now are, first, Princess Haiyan, and second, Prince Consort Haiyan.
These two people are definitely her biggest enemies, and Emperor Mingde has to stand back.
"Send people to Niaoyin Mountain to harvest all the Muyan flowers before the messenger does." The Queen Mother gave the order.
The man in black shook his head. "It's too late. Our people, whether from the Six Gods Temple or the Shenmu Hall, have all been taken away. Almost all the post stations along the way that dared to openly do business have also been taken away."
The Queen Mother was extremely angry, "Why didn't I know about this?"
The man in black said, "Your Li family told your subordinates not to mention this to you."
The Queen Mother felt her eyes go dark, and after a while she said, "It is not convenient for me to act in the deep palace, so they are fooling me like this? What is that fake Phoenix girl doing?"
