Qin Ke instructed.
After all, the master places great importance on the ten-thousand-year-old dicine and cannot afford any mistakes.
"Yes, my lord."
...
Qing Lian had just returned to Prince Qing’s Mansion.
A maid in blue hurriedly ran over, "Sister Qing Lian, you’re finally back! Lady Liu is looking for you!"
"What is it?"
Qing Lian was a bit puzzled since she had left the mansion to take care of business for Lady Liu.
So even though the maid was in a rush, she didn’t panic at all.
"Don’t ask, just go quickly. The lady is anxious, and you won’t have a good outco if you don’t."
The maid in blue urged her.
"Alright, I understand. Thank you, sister."
Qing Lian chuckled and handed her a box of rouge.
"This is top-quality stuff."
"This... it’s too precious, I can’t accept it."
Although the maid in blue feigned refusal, she clutched the rouge tightly, showing no intention of returning it.
"Sister, with your natural beauty, and this superior rouge, who knows how many people you’d enchant, unlike , even if I use it, it won’t make a difference."
"Accept it!"
"Ah... then thank you, sister."
The maid in blue imdiately thanked her, happily eyeing the rouge in her hand.
Having been in the Prince’s Mansion for a long ti, her perception was naturally keen. This small box of rouge could probably equal a month’s wages.
Even though she liked it, she couldn’t bear the expense.
The fact that Qing Lian gave her a box naturally delighted her.
It must be said that Qing Lian was able to make a na for herself in the Prince’s Mansion by catering to everyone’s tastes.
Like the maid in blue before her, who loved rouge the most.
Others, like the servants, so liked wine, others liked food...
Many of them had received her favors to so degree.
That’s why she was able to master much of the secrets within the Prince’s Mansion in less than a year.
After all, both the ladies and Prince Qing required servants to attend to them.
Sotis, inadvertently, things would slip out.
Even they themselves wouldn’t notice.
Such occasions were not rare.
"No need, sister will go ahead."
Saying this, she briskly walked towards the inner depths of the mansion.
When she reached a small courtyard, she softly exhaled a fragrant breath to calm herself and then walked in with a smile.
"Madam... Madam... The servant has returned."
Qing Lian entered the central room of the small courtyard and softly called toward the back of the bead curtain.
At that mont, in the room behind the bead curtain, a beautiful lady sat in front of a half-ter-tall bronze mirror.
She was dressed in a moon-white palace gown with elegant orchid patterns embroidered in silver thread on the hem of the skirt, and she wore a light blue gauze cloak adorned with tiny pearls.
Her face, like a doll’s, bore eyes like stars, filled with a captivating allure.
It was precisely this contrast that had earned her Prince Qing’s favor.
However... she had been at the mansion for three or four years, and her belly remained unmoving.
With child cos status!
This saying was vividly manifested with the first wife.
Even though not favored by Prince Qing, the first wife’s son is the legitimate eldest son of the prince’s mansion.
Even he has to bow and pay respects upon seeing this legitimate eldest son.
No matter how much Prince Qing favors her, if she bears no children, abandonnt is inevitable, as proved by many won.
When she learned from Qing Lian about a dicine that could help her conceive, she imdiately sent her out of the mansion to prepare it.
But as ti passed and the sky darkened, and with Prince Qing about to arrive, Qing Lian was still nowhere to be seen, making her anxious.
"Ah... you finally returned."
Lady Liu turned around and hurried over, bending slightly, towering a head above Qing Lian, and whispered in her ear, "Did you get it?"
"Here it is!"
Qing Lian carefully took out a small white bottle from her bosom, "Supposedly, one pill is enough, but it must be placed in wine!"
"Excellent, excellent!"
Lady Liu clutched the small white bottle like a treasure, yet still asked, "Is it really effective?"
As for whether the dicine had any other issues, she never considered at all.
In her eyes, Qing Lian would never dare conspire against her.
"Many who used it have conceived, so..."
She didn’t finish the sentence.
If it truly worked, rumors had also suggested this effect, but whether it worked for her was uncertain.
She dared not make any definitive promises.
Otherwise, she’d be the one in trouble.
"If it worked for others, it surely will for ,"
Lady Liu said with determination.
Then she instructed her, "Go, prepare the finest wine and the Prince’s favorite dishes. Also, make sure to choose strong wine!"
"Yes!"
Qing Lian whispered in reply, then quickly exited to prepare.
In no ti, a table full of delicacies was ready, along with the finest strong wine.
Lady Liu sat there, a bit anxious, waiting for Prince Qing to arrive.
As the sky fully darkened, four smokeless white candles were lit in the room, bathing it in a warm glow.
"Madam...!"
At that mont, a deep voice ca from outside.
Lady Liu hurriedly stood up, her doll-like face blossoming into a smile, her eyes full of allure as she gracefully walked out.
"My prince, you’re finally here. I thought you wouldn’t co tonight!"
Lady Liu coquettishly exclaid to the middle-aged man walking toward her.
"Hahaha... My dear heart, how could I possibly not co!"
Prince Qing pulled her into his arms, pinching her cheek with a hearty laugh.
Looking at the beauty in his arms, especially those enchanting eyes, indeed whetted his appetite.
"Oh, it seems it’s hungry!"
Lady Liu laughed coquettishly, touching it with her jade hand.
"Indeed, not seeing you for a day makes it hungry."
Prince Qing revealed a mischievous smile, "But my belly is hungry too, let’s eat first, then I’ll have the strength later!"
