When Pin'er walked in from outside, she saw Princess Anyang sitting in front of the bronze mirror, staring at the shadow in the mirror.
She stood at the door, her hands tucked together, looked at Princess Anyang, and whispered: Princess, Lord Tang insisted on coming in, Pin'er couldn't stop...
Princess Anyang waved her hand and had no intention of caring about this matter. She looked back at her and asked: Is there anything different about me today?
Pin'er looked at her and shook her head in confusion
Princess Anyang coughed lightly and said: Let me remind you, eyes, what is the difference between my eyes and before...
Pin'er suddenly realized and said: The princess's eyes are swollen. Do you want me to let the kitchen cook two eggs...
Stupid girl! Princess Anyang glared at her angrily and said: You don’t know anything!
Pin'er stood there with a silly smile. Princess Anyang glanced at her in anger. She might as well come over to help me dress up. I want to go to the palace...
……
When Tang Ning returned home, he learned that his father-in-law, the Zuo Cheng, had already arrived.
In three years, from a small local county magistrate to a real-power official in the Shangshu Province only under two prime ministers, the entire court was probably only Tang Ning's own promotion speed could be compared with him.
While picking up food for Zhong Mingli's bowl, Chen Yuxian said: Did you think Your Majesty has taken the wrong medicine? How long have you been the Jingzhao Yin? Why are you going to be the Left Chief of the Shangshu again?
Zhong Mingli glanced at her and said: Don’t talk about Your Majesty behind your back, it will be troublesome if others hear it!
Chen Yuxian looked at Tang Ning again and asked: Ning'er, how was Shangshu Zuo Cheng usually promoted?
Tang Ning put down his chopsticks and said: The Zuo Cheng will usually serve for five years. If there is no major mistake, he will be transferred to one of the six ministries as the Minister of the Shangshu and work for another five years. If he has the opportunity to serve as the Minister of Personnel or the Minister of Revenue, he will likely become the prime minister in the future.
Chen Yuxian had already understood that although the Shangshu Zuo Cheng was the same as Jingzhao Yin, he was prepared for the Shangshu and the Prime Minister. Although she was not a member of the officialdom, she also knew that her husband's transfer in recent years was definitely not a normal promotion. She looked at Tang Ning with some concern and asked: Is there any problem with this?
Tang Ning shook his head and said: No, it's just that the Prime Minister is old, and the Minister of the Shangshu Zuocheng is actually the power of the prime minister, and he has more responsibilities than before. Every decision is related to the national economy and people's livelihood of the State of Chen...
When Chen Yuxian heard this, he looked at Zhong Mingli again and said: Did you hear that? In the future, you should be more careful in Shangshu Pavilion and don’t cause trouble for Ning'er again...
Zhong Mingli nodded vaguely, only caring about eating, but did not respond
In the past, I didn’t think anything about it. Now that I have arrived in the Secretariat, my father-in-law has become a subordinate of Sn in law. How can he call him in the Secretariat in the future?
Called Prime Minister Tang, where does his father-in-law put his face?
If you call Ning'er, wouldn't it be that you have no distinction between honor and inferiority and disrespectful to the prime minister?
Tang Ning didn't think as much as Zhong Mingli thought. He could just foresee that when Wang Xiang and he were not in the Secretariat, the Secretariat Zuo Cheng was the top leader of the Secretariat. He could live a good prime minister.

Changning Palace
Princess Anyang handed a letter and a porcelain bottle to Zhao Man and said: This is what he asked me to bring you.
Zhao Man put away the things, hugged her arm, and said happily: Thank you, Sister Anyang, when I escape, I will definitely repay you well!
Princess Anyang pinched her nose and said: You are going to elope with him, how can you repay me?
Zhao Man thought for a while and said: Then I will let my husband repay you first!
Speaking of repayment, Princess Anyang remembered the fragrant kiss she offered. Her face turned red, but her tone was a little sour: I haven't gotten married yet, so I'll call her husband so soon...
Zhao Man was a little shy. Seeing that Princess Anyang looked a little haggard, she hurriedly changed the topic and said: Your face is not very good. Are you sick? Should you ask the imperial physician to help you see...
It’s not because... Princess Anyang subconsciously spoke out anger, and felt something was wrong halfway through her speech. She couldn’t tell Zhao Man that the reason why she couldn’t sleep all night was because she thought about her love brother all night. It would be strange if the two of them didn’t turn against each other.
OK OK OK I'm fine. She waved her hand, changed the topic, looked at Zhao Man, and said: Tell me, how did you meet...
Zhao Man remembered the past with Tang Ning, his face turned slightly red, he lowered his head and whispered: Ah, what are you talking about?
Tell me, don't be so stingy...
Then, okay... Zhao Man nodded and said: Actually, at the beginning, we often quarreled, but later...
In fact, Zhao Man and Tang Ning all the way, Princess Anyang saw it, and she knew very well how much effort Tang Ning had made for the relationship between the two.
He entered Chu alone and risked his life to bring her who had already married from Chu. Now, in order to take her away, he is willing to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor.
For a woman, if she has to be so dedicated, what else can her husband seek in life?
She just asked casually that changed the subject. When she saw the happy expression on Zhao Man's face, she felt even more bitter. Finally, she couldn't bear to listen anymore, so she stood up and said: I'll go back first.
Zhao Man pouted and said: I haven't finished talking yet
Tell your husband to go... Princess Anyang reached out and pointed her forehead, sighed in her heart, and walked out of Changning Palace
Shortly after Princess Anyang left, Zhao Man opened the envelope, and after reading it, he threw it into a brazier and torched it.
She took out the porcelain bottle and poured out a pill from it...

Yangshen Temple
Emperor Chen no longer needed others to help him walk, and slowly paced in the hall, looking at Wei Jian who was walking in, and asked: How is Man'er's illness?
Wei Jian sighed and said: The Imperial Doctor said he was not optimistic.
A hint of anger appeared on Emperor Chen's face and said angrily: This cannot be cured, and that cannot be cured. What are these imperial physicians doing? Do I raise them all for a good meal?
Two days ago, Princess Pingyang Zhao Man suddenly fell ill. After the imperial physician diagnosed it, she also prescribed several medications. However, after taking it for two days, her condition not only did not improve, but worsened. This is why Emperor Chen was angry at this moment.
Wei Jian thought for a while and said: Go back to Your Majesty, Doctor Ling said that the princess may be suffering from a lovesickness disease. Should she call Lord Tang here?
Emperor Chen frowned, after thinking about it, he finally spoke: Xuan He entered the palace
Half an hour later, Tang Ning followed Wei Jian into Changning Palace. Wei Jian looked at him and said: Lord Tang, I will leave the princess to you...
After he finished speaking, he looked at the eunuchs and palace maids in the hall and said: You all retreat and let Lord Tang treat the princess well.
After the eunuchs and palace maids in the hall retreated, Wei Jian closed the door and Tang Ning walked to the bed. Even though he knew that all this was an illusion, he still felt a sense of pain when he saw Zhao Man's face pale and lying on the bed with weak appearance.
When Zhao Man saw him coming in, he immediately got up from the bed and said happily: Even the imperial doctor has cheated him!
I have never seen this kind of medicine before. Imperial Doctor Cheng Ling Yihong is his nephew again. It is not difficult to create the illusion that she is seriously ill. The difficult thing is how he brought Zhao Man out of the palace
If you say that only the Gu tribe elders from Guizhou can cure her illness, and taking her to Guizhou is the most direct, but Emperor Chen certainly doesn't believe it. In this way, he can only arrange a scene of the princess pretending to die according to the plan.
Tang Ning comforted Zhao Man for a moment, then walked out of Changning Palace
If you stay here again, it will probably arouse others' suspicion. After all, no matter how long you take the pulse, it will not take half an hour. Some people may wonder what else he has done here.
When he returned home, he saw a man running from the street to the gate of the Tang Mansion from afar. The man was dressed in a torn dress and covered in dust. It was obvious that he had been rushing for a long time.
Tang Ning walked over quickly, looked at the elder of the Beggars' Sect who was sent by him to the Western Regions to protect his mother and Tang Shui, and asked quickly: Hong Qi, why are you here?
She stood at the door, her hands tucked together, looked at Princess Anyang, and whispered: Princess, Lord Tang insisted on coming in, Pin'er couldn't stop...
Princess Anyang waved her hand and had no intention of caring about this matter. She looked back at her and asked: Is there anything different about me today?
