The huge water tank was half filled with clear water, in which floated lotus petals that had just been picked from the yard.

Such an elegant tank of water is just like the flower petal water that young ladies use for bathing every day. The only difference is that there is a large piece of irregularly shaped ice in it.

Ye Wanling had taken off her outer garment at this moment, and was standing beside the water tank in only her inner garment, her face changing from gloomy to bright.

"Please go ahead, Miss Ye. If you keep dawdling, the ice will melt."

Sun Miaomiao covered her mouth, sneered and urged Ye Wanling.

Ye Wanling closed her eyes tightly, and when she opened them again, all she could see was the tub of ice water in front of her, and no one else.

Just treat it as training!

Ye Wanling had never told anyone that she had always aspired to become the first female general of the Great Zhou. The previous dynasty had produced several female generals who were as brave as men, and they were Ye Wanling's role models.

Yes, this is training!

The battlefield is ruthless and no one will treat her preferentially just because she is a woman.

Maybe one day she would go to fight in a bitterly cold place like Northern Liao, marching in the wind and snow, wading through frozen rivers, fighting bloody battles while holding an iron spear that was colder than ice, and the current situation was just allowing her to adapt in advance.

Ye Wanling held the edge of the tank with one hand, used her hand as support, and jumped up with both feet. After a beautiful leap, she sat down in the tank with a "plop".

Ice-cold water splashed out of the tank, drenching the people around him.

Especially Sun Miaomiao, in order to laugh at Ye Wanling's joke, she deliberately got very close, but unexpectedly got a face full of cold water.

"Ah! Pah! Pah!"

Sun Miaomiao swallowed a mouthful of ice water and kept spitting out disgust.

The other two girls were also splashed with ice water, but they knew how horrible Nan Yanran was and did not dare to complain.

Nan Yanran raised her hand with an unhappy look and wiped away the two drops of ice water on her cheek. She stared at Ye Wanling in the tank, wanting to appreciate her painful and freezing look as if she was begging for mercy!

Who told her to dare to seduce Lin Ling by pretending to be his cousin!

Bitch!

Unfortunately, Nan Yanran did not see the scene she wanted to see.

At this moment, Ye Wanling was holding a large piece of ice, with her eyes closed like an old monk in meditation, sitting cross-legged in the tank with an expressionless face.

This……

Sun Miaomiao turned her head and looked at Nan Yanran nervously. As expected, Nan Yanran was gritting her teeth in anger.

Humph, let’s see how long you can last!

"Tea!"

Nan Yanran's expression relaxed. She was certain that Ye Wanling was just being stubborn and that within a cup of tea, she would be crying and begging her!

After finishing one cup of tea and then the second cup, Ye Wanling's lips began to turn purple, but she remained motionless and looked peaceful.

Nan Yanran said with a cold face, "Can't you see that the ice is almost melting?! Go and get Miss Ye a new one!"

Several palace maids immediately brought up a larger piece of ice and put it into the jar.

During the whole process, Ye Wanling remained motionless.

If her chest hadn't been still rising and falling regularly, Sun Miaomiao would have thought she was frozen to death.

Seeing that there was no way to let Nan Yanran vent her anger, Sun Miaomiao used her not-so-bright brain and came up with a good idea.

"Your Highness, I have heard that Northern Liao produces musk, and its royal family members often wear musk. Even women can adapt to musk and give birth to children. I think that the princess should make preparations in advance..."

Nan Yanran's eyes lit up when she heard this. She nodded in understanding and ordered the palace maid beside her to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some musk.

As soon as they heard the word "musk", Dong Yanjun and Su Xiwen's faces turned pale.

In their view, childbearing is a woman's natural mission. If they are deprived of their reproductive ability, it is no different from killing them!

Fortunately, musk is a banned item in the harem. Even though the palace maids around Nan Yanran tried their best to persuade, coerce and bribe them, they only got a piece of musk the size of a thumb.

But they all knew that this thing was extremely powerful when it burned, so they still couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses and stay away.

Even Sun Miaomiao, the culprit, covered her mouth and nose tightly the moment Musk appeared.

Nan Yanran was not afraid. After all, she would have to deal with this thing when she arrived in Bei Liao.

After observing for a while, she saw that all the women in the hall were trembling with fear, and she couldn't help but sneer at their cowardice.

But Ye Wanling seemed to be asleep and didn't react at all!

"Go, throw it into the water tank!"

Su Xiwen's eyes showed reluctance, "Sixth Princess, if the musk dissolves in the water and enters Miss Ye's body, she will never be able to have children again. If the Duke of Qing's Mansion makes a fuss, what will we do?"

Su Xiwen is very smart. She knows that if she wants to plead for Ye Wanling, she cannot just mention Ye Wanling. Ye Wanling is not important. What is important is that there is the Duke of Qing's Mansion behind her.

Unfortunately, Nan Yanran didn't care at all. From the moment her father believed that she was a witch who brought disaster to the country and decided to abandon her, the life and death of the Great Zhou royal family had nothing to do with her anymore.

It would be better if there was a commotion in the Duke Qing's Mansion, so that father could have a taste of what it feels like to have a splitting headache and a heart-wrenching pain!

Nan Yanran ignored Su Xiwen and ordered the maid beside her, "Go quickly!"

The palace maid walked to the water tank, and with a "dong" sound, a piece of musk sank into the icy water.

Ye Wanling still didn't move. She was using the little internal strength she had to protect her heart and internal organs. She knew what was happening around her, but she didn't care.

She only cared about the Duke of Qing's Mansion and her own family. For a woman who wanted to be a general, having children or not was not important.

Just when everyone's attention was attracted by the musk rising and falling in the water tank, there was a commotion in front of the hall door.

Nan Yanran raised her eyebrows in displeasure and shouted fiercely, "Who dares to act wildly here!"

A eunuch hurried into the hall to reply.

"Princess, Princess Ning'an and Princess Shuyi are here, and they say they are..."

Without waiting for the eunuch to finish his words, Nan Shuning and Lin Yushu rushed into the hall. Seeing the situation inside, Lin Yushu was furious.

"How dare you! Who allowed you to trespass into Hibiscus Palace?"

Facing the angry shouts from the palace maid beside Nan Yanran, the guards behind Nan Shuning responded loudly.

"According to the order of the Empress Dowager, Furong Palace is to be closed immediately and no outsiders are allowed to enter!"

"Why would the Empress Dowager suddenly care about the affairs of Furong Palace? I think Princess Shuyi is worried about her cousin and went to the Empress Dowager to stir up trouble."

Sun Miaomiao instigated her without hesitation, and Nan Yanran's face turned frighteningly gloomy when she heard it.

Lin Yushu didn't even look at the two of them. She stepped forward to the water tank, stretched out her hand and picked up Ye Wanling as if she were a chick.

Ye Wanling: ...

Lin Yushu took the cloak that had been prepared in advance from Leng Dai and covered Ye Wanling's wet body tightly.

Seeing that Ye Wanling had no other problems except being very cold, he turned to look at Nan Yanran.

"The Queen Mother heard that the Sixth Princess wanted to adapt to the bitter cold and musk of Northern Liao, but for some reason she asked Miss Ye to do it for her. The Queen Mother said that if the princess wants to adapt, she must experience it herself!"

Lin Yushu walked towards Nan Yanran while speaking. As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Yushu reached out and grabbed Nan Yanran's collar and dragged her to the water tank.

"Your servant will follow the Queen Mother's orders and serve the princess personally!"

After saying that, without waiting for Nan Yanran to curse out loud, Lin Yushu grabbed Nan Yanran's head and pressed it hard into the water tank.

Then, Lin Yushu bent down and lifted up her trouser legs, causing Nan Yanran to fall headfirst into the water tank!

thump!
