The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

It was not until then that Liang Yanbing truly realized the horror of the longevity cream.

Even before, when her sister Liang Yanzhi took the medicine, she just thought that she was just sick or poisoned, and it just needed to be cured.

But as Shi Anxia described, the situation was more like a plague, and a nationwide plague that spread very quickly.

The plague was the biggest shadow for her. Both she and her husband Gao Pinyuan had been on the verge of death several times in Huizhou due to the plague, which left her with lingering fears.

"Who is so wicked that he would use the longevity cream to control the officials..." Liang Yanbing was stunned after blurting out, and whispered, "Oh my God, no, it can't be the Queen Mother?"

The reason she guessed it was the Queen Mother was because she heard Gao Pinyuan say that most of those old ministers were from the Queen Mother's camp.

After coming to the capital, Gao Pinyuan was worried that she did not understand the officialdom in the capital and might be mistakenly wooed by others, so he specifically warned her.

Shi Anxia didn't avoid her, "You only guessed half right. She can't make the longevity cream. I checked, this kind of thing didn't exist in Beiyi originally, and the seeds were first discovered in Wan Country."

There were few places in Wan State where the wood-flower could be grown, and they found that the Fushou cream was not a good thing. Since they did not use it themselves, they set their sights on the northern wing.

The key is that this abacus is quite sound.

At first, they couldn't bear to see Beiyi making a lot of money from Wan State with tea, silk, porcelain, etc. But Beiyi's products were good, and even the royal family of Wan State used products made by Beiyi in their daily life.

What to do? Naturally, we want to have a give-and-take relationship.

Wan State also wanted to sell things to Beiyi to earn money. But what did they have? The most were war horses and cattle and sheep.

Strong war horses will strengthen the northern wing, cattle and sheep are valuable, and cattle horns and tendons are excellent materials for making bows and crossbows. They don't want to sell these.

Only if the longevity cream made from the wood-colored flower is vigorously sold to the North Wing, can one continue to make a fortune.

The State of Wan not only wants to sell the Fu Shou Cream to Bei Yi, but also wants to borrow Bei Yi's land to plant Mu Yan Hua.

The Wan people found it inconvenient to do things and had to do everything secretly, so they wanted to find a partner.

Liang Yanbing was also guilty, and felt that she had heard a big news. "I mean... the Queen Mother has colluded with the Wan Kingdom?"

If a queen dowager of a country colluded with the State of Wan to harm her own people for her own selfish reasons, is she still a human being?

"Even if it's not her, it's someone in her camp."

While Shi Anxia was telling Liang Yanbing what she could tell him, she was thinking about what she couldn't tell him.

In her previous life, the Queen Mother did not accept Wan State's proposal. Even after the Prince of Jin came to power, he did not vigorously promote things like the Fu Shou Cream in the North Wing.

It was just that Emperor Rongguang and some treacherous ministers indulged in private pleasures, which eventually led to poor health.

It will never extend its evil claws to the military examinations and the generals in the court like it does now.

This shows that even people in the Queen Mother's camp may not be aware of the harm of the Fu Shou Gao.

It's only now that they are in a hurry that they are thinking of cooperating with the Wan State to make money together.

After all, many of the Li family's businesses, both overt and covert, were wiped out by Shi Anxia and Cen Yuan, cutting off their source of money.

In addition, since the Empress Dowager was imprisoned in the Western Mountains, external forces were urgently needed to fight against Emperor Mingde. If the Fu Shou Paste could be used to control the person she wanted to control, it would definitely be twice the result with half the effort.

When Anxia sent Liang Yanbing back to the Shangshu Mansion, she returned to Tinglan Courtyard and smelled the aroma of chicken stewed with mushrooms from afar.

This is the most relaxing and comfortable time of the day.

She went into the house to change her clothes and happened to see Mu Lan coming from Yu Sheng Pavilion to deliver some dumplings.

Yao Sheng knew that she and Cen Yuan were both very busy, so she let them have their meal in her yard.

"Young Master hasn't come back yet?" Shi Anxia looked at the sky full of sunset glow and was thinking about waiting for Cen Yuan to come back and have dinner together.

Hong Que replied, "The young master has told us not to wait for him."

Shi Anxia had the dining table placed under the sycamore tree in the courtyard and lit lanterns for illumination.

When Cen Yuan came back from outside, she heard dogs barking and people laughing in the yard.

Under the parasol tree, the lantern was swaying. The girl was wearing a moon-white shirt, eating something. She had just taken a bite and looked at him with her cheeks puffed up.

Seeing him come back, she couldn't swallow the bulge in her mouth, so she waved to him and spoke in a humming voice.

It seemed to be asking him, "Have you eaten? Come and join us."

Cen Yuan had rarely seen the little girl eat like this before. After she got married, she seemed to not care so much about rules.

Those who don't talk while eating or sleeping will gradually become useless.

He walked over, put the food box on the table and opened it. Inside was a basket of steaming crystal buns. "Eat buns."

As soon as Anxia smelled the fragrance, she knew it was the crystal buns from Donglou Zhaoji. This craftsmanship was the only one in the whole capital.

Shi Anxia curved her eyebrows and asked, "Did you buy it specially?"

She had a poor appetite these days, and her mind was not on food. But now that she had some free time, she was tempted by the smell of the stuffing and became greedy.

"On the way." Cen Yuan's ears blushed slightly. He was too embarrassed to admit that he had made a detour just to get the buns. He was even more embarrassed to admit that he had bought Donglou Zhaoji two years ago because she loved eating the buns from this restaurant in her previous life.

He went back to the house, changed into comfortable clothes, and came out to see Hongque had already prepared water for hand washing.

After washing his hands, Cen Yuan sat opposite the little girl and saw a plate of half-eaten dumplings on the table.

At this moment, she was holding a crystal bag between her chopsticks.

The crystal buns have red, yellow and green fillings, with a lot of vegetables and shrimps. The skin is thin and the fillings are large, delicious and fragrant.

"Don't eat if you're full. You can have it for breakfast tomorrow." Cen Yuan was afraid that the little girl would get indigestion if she ate too much noodles.

Shi Anxia smiled, "The open-mouthed dumplings that my mother taught Mulan and the others to make are delicious, and the crystal buns my husband bought are also delicious."

Shi Anxia picked up an open dumpling and put it in his bowl, "You eat too."

She was already full, but she still sat with him for a long time.

The night is dark and the moon is bright.

After the two of them finished their dinner, when Hong Que and the others had cleared away all the bowls, chopsticks and plates, An Xia finally had time to talk about the incident of Mo Jiu being robbed.

She looked at Cen Yuan and cleared her throat, "Husband, do you have anything to ask me?"

Cen Yuan knew without asking, "You have decided to take action."

That day, the girl went to the Shangshu Mansion to see Liang Yanbing. He withdrew his men on the surface, but he did arrange secret guards for her.

When Liang Yanzhi entered the Shangshu Mansion, the secret guards discovered her.

But at that time, the secret guards thought that this was Madam Anguo's biological sister, and was just an ordinary person who didn't know martial arts, so they didn't try to stop her.

Because they cannot show up unless it is absolutely necessary. Shi Anxia had explained this before coming.

Afterwards, Liang Yanzhi snatched away the black dove.

The secret guard was also preparing to take action to retrieve it, but at that moment, Shi Anxia reached out and took off one of the hairpins on her head.

That was an order prohibiting the secret guards from taking action.

The secret guard could only retreat back and watch Liang Yanzhi run away, while the two women chased after her.

At the same time, a maid sneaked out of the Zhongli Marquis Mansion under the cover of night and walked into a house after taking many turns.

She was talking about this with the people inside, "Master, Princess Haiyan doesn't have many people protecting her. Even my young lady managed to snatch Mojiu away from under her nose..."
