"Indeed." Yang Ruxin smiled and waved her hand, then casually took a gold hairpin inlaid with kingfisher feathers from the dressing table and handed it over, "A reward for you."
"Thank you, Madam, for the reward." Hong Yi accepted the gold hairpin with a wide smile.
This hairpin is worth at least a hundred taels of Silver.
Although Lun Yi said nothing, a hint of reluctance flashed in her eyes.
"Alright, hurry up and get the al ready." Du Juan said, "The madam will be heading out later."
Lun Yi and Hong Yi bowed and left.
Yang Ruxin waited until everyone had left, then handed a bottle to Du Juan: "These days, don’t let anyone else up in the attic, especially nanny Lou, she’s getting old..."
"Is there sothing wrong with the incense?" Du Juan frowned.
"There’s a big problem." Yang Ruxin smiled a little, "This thing, if used consistently for seven days and followed with so honey water, is ten tis more potent than tremulous Acacia Fragrance or any of those dicines..."
Du Juan, having road the martial world, naturally knew those were very potent aphrodisiacs, the kind with no cure, and imdiately shuddered, then swallowed a pill: "Damn it, I’ll go right away..."
"No." Yang Ruxin hurriedly pulled Du Juan back, "Impulsivity is the Demon, stay calm."
Du Juan twitched the corner of her mouth.
"They’ve gone through all the trouble and expense to get such incense, we can’t deny them so satisfaction, can we? So, we need to cooperate more from now on." Yang Ruxin’s lips curled up mischievously, "Since they want to play, I must ensure they play well, otherwise, it’s too easy on them."
"Alright." A hint of coldness flashed in Du Juan’s eyes.
In a private room of Baoyue Building.
Shen Junru had arrived early; although she appeared calm, she was actually quite anxious inside. Her nstruation had been delayed for six days already. She could have waited longer, but she just couldn’t hold back anymore.
"Your Grace, relax a bit." Jinhua noticed the veins bulging on the back of Shen Junru’s hand as she clutched her handkerchief, and softly reminded her, "Being tense isn’t good for your health."
Only then did Shen Junru take a deep breath and hold Jinhua’s hand: "Do you think..."
At this mont, the door of the private room opened, and Yin Hua ca in: "Your Grace, Madam Ruyi has arrived."
"Xinxin." Shen Junru quickly stood up. Actually, she could have let the Imperial Physician diagnose her, but she wasn’t sure whose side the physicians in the Imperial Hospital were on; she couldn’t risk her own child’s safety. Without waiting for the other to salute, she went over and held her hand, "Quickly sit down, I..."
"Congratulations, Crown Princess Consort." Yang Ruxin smiled and nodded at Shen Junru.
"You an..." Shen Junru’s eyes widened instantly.
"Believe , there’s no mistake." Yang Ruxin nodded; she had just looked at Shen Junru’s belly. If she wasn’t mistaken, it should be twins, but since they were too small, she wasn’t sure.
Shen Junru’s eyes turned red imdiately.
"You mustn’t cry, don’t be nervous, don’t get excited, you must be calm and composed." Yang Ruxin hurriedly squeezed Shen Junru’s hand, "That way, the baby will be healthy and beautiful."
Shen Junru sniffled and nodded.
"If the Crown Princess Consort trusts , then have soone fetch a portion of greens from the vegetarian restaurant every day; it’ll be beneficial..."
"Okay." Shen Junru nodded.
"But rember to pay; that’s a business venture between and the Empress Dowager, can’t be free, but there’s a twenty percent discount..."
