With the system traveling through time, the queen always becomes a mother painlessly

Chapter 41: Shang Yuan's people drugged her, and the Queen Mother summoned Nan Yan to the palac

When this news reached the Prince of Dongping's Palace, Shang Bai was instantly thrown into disarray.

He was weak and had no opinion of his own, so he didn't know what to do, and hurried to the Prince of Dongping's courtyard to find him.

This caused the King of Dongping to scold him.

Prince Dongping looked at the man in front of him who was hanging his head in fear and not saying a word. He took a deep breath to calm himself down, fearing that he would be angered to death by him.

After calming down, he pointed at Shang Bo and said in a deep voice: "Look at you now, are you afraid that others don't know that we don't want the emperor to establish a queen? If this gets out, will the emperor let us go?"

"Father, I am just nervous."

"You can't show your nervousness in front of outsiders. How many times have I told you to hide your emotions in public?"

Shang Bo shuddered and stammered, "I understand."

The anger that Prince Dongping had suppressed with great difficulty rose up again. He slammed the table with a bang, his eyebrows raised in anger.

"I know, I know. You always say you know, but when did you ever do it?"

After saying this, he turned his head away and didn't look at his miserable son.

After a while, he said, "Be more calm in front of outsiders and don't worry about this matter. There will always be people who are more nervous than us. Let's wait and see until he makes a move, and then we can reap the benefits."

Shang Bai was confused at first, but then his eyes lit up and he took a few steps forward and said, "Father, are you talking about King Chen?"

"It's him." King Dongping turned to look at Shang Bai with a look that said, "You're finally smart."

"My son, I know."

The Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculated the wedding date, May 113th of the th year of Yuanhe, which was still eight months away.

After all, it was the Emperor who was going to appoint a queen, so naturally it would take some time to prepare.

The news about Nan Yan and the Emperor spread quickly, not only in the capital, but also in various states of Dashang and even to other countries.

As the story spread, word spread that the prime minister's daughter, Nan Yan, was so beautiful and stunningly beautiful, and her talent was so outstanding that the emperor, who was not interested in women, would personally propose to her.

Those who knew Nan Yan in Jinling were all envious of her, because she was well-born and had a good family background!

Ever since Nan Yan's marriage to the Emperor was finalized, the number of people visiting the Nan family has obviously increased a lot compared to before.

That day, Nan Yan was practicing calligraphy and painting when Yin Ling walked in holding a plate.

"Miss, this is the lotus seed and red date soup that Madam Lin just made. Drink it while it's hot."

After returning to the capital, Nan Yan painted three paintings, which were hung in Wenxuanzhai and sold, earning nearly a thousand taels of silver.

Nan Yan put down the paintbrush in her hand, walked to the round table beside her, sat down, and prepared to drink soup.

[Host, please pay attention! Host, please pay attention! Someone has put a sterilizing drug in the lotus seed and red date soup. ]

Nan Yan paused, glanced at the soup calmly, and said to Yin Ling, "Put it down! I'll drink it after it cools down a bit."

After Yin Ling left, Nan Yan asked with a cold face: "Tong Zi, who drugged me?"

[He is the man of King Chen. ]

King Chen? Shang Yue's half brother.

Nan Yan instantly understood why King Chen drugged her.

"Tongzi, do you have a way to neutralize the medicinal properties in it?"

[Host, do you want to drink? 】

"If you have a way to counteract the drug's effects, I'll drink it. If I don't, there will definitely be various ways to drug me in the future. I can't not drink it every time, or they will find something wrong."

[The host is right. I will take away the medicinal properties after you drink the soup.]

"That's good."

Nan Yan picked up the bowl and drank the soup spoonful by spoonful.

[Host, the medicinal properties have been taken away, and there is no harm to your body. ]

Two days later, Shang Yuan received the news that Nan Yan had drunk the soup mixed with the abortion drug.

In early September, it rained several times in a row in the past few days. Each autumn rain brought a chill, and the temperature was getting lower day by day.

Except for occasionally asking Liu Ruxu and Chen Ruolan to go out for a walk, Nan Yan stayed in the mansion all the time.

Nan Yan had just returned to the courtyard after breakfast when the maidservant beside Ruan Yurou came in and said, "Miss, Nanny Wang from the Queen Mother's side is here and said that the Queen Mother wants to summon you to the palace."

Nan Yan also wanted to meet her future mother-in-law. She heard that she had a gentle personality, but she didn't know if she was really easy to get along with.

"Okay, I understand. Go tell Nanny Wang and ask her to wait for a moment. I'll be right back when I finish dressing."

After all, it was the first time she met her future mother-in-law, so Nan Yan still felt that she had to dress up nicely.

She changed into a white embroidered long dress and put on a white cape. Her hair was tied up with a white jade hairpin with a pink and white silk flower inserted next to it. She looked like a fairy descending to earth.

This was also the first time that Nanny Wang saw Nan Yan, and she was immediately amazed.

Even the most beautiful Concubine Jing in the late queen's harem could not compare to her.

Nan Yan followed Nanny Wang into the palace.

Walking into the main hall of the Cining Palace, Nan Yan saw a woman in her thirties sitting at the head of the group. She had a heroic look and looked very similar to Shang Yue.

Nan Yan stepped forward and saluted in a standard manner, "Your servant greets the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother came back to her senses from her amazement and said, "Miss Nan, please get up."

Nan Yan raised her head, without looking around randomly or secretly, and the Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction.

As the rumors said, she was really outstanding in appearance, graceful in demeanor, and had a neither humble nor arrogant temperament, which was different from ordinary women.

She is completely worthy of being the Queen of the Shang Dynasty. Yue'er has really good vision.

"Give me a seat."

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for the seat." Nan Yan bowed and, following the guidance of the palace maid, sat down on a chair nearby.

"Miss Nan, can I call you Yan'er?"

Nan Yan was flattered, "Empress Dowager, of course." The Empress Dowager was indeed as gentle as the rumors said.

The table next to Nan Yan was already filled with tea and exquisite pastries.

At the Queen Mother's signal, Nan Yan picked up the teacup and took a few sips, the faint fragrance of tea spreading in her mouth. Even if Nan Yan didn't understand tea, she knew it was good tea.

The Queen Mother took the initiative to bring up the topic, "I heard that Miss Nan has been recuperating in Jinling. I heard that Jinling is a very beautiful place. I have never been there. Can you tell me about it?"

"Your Majesty, Jinling is very different from the capital. There is lush greenery everywhere, with many rivers and lakes. In summer, many boats are parked on the Jinling River. You can eat on the boat and go boating with a few friends..."

The Queen Mother looked longing.

It seemed that through Nan Yan's description, a beautiful picture of Jinling automatically emerged in her mind.

She was from the capital and grew up in the capital. After she married the emperor, she began to live in the palace.

Apart from going to the villa in the mountains to escape the summer heat or to Jingguo Temple to worship Buddha every year, I have never been to any other place.

No matter how beautiful the scenery in the palace is, after more than 20 years, you will get tired of it.
