Queen of flowers - chapter 143

The ladies who sent dowry gifts to the palace didn’t include the Princess of Xing’an county.

She heard that the day before, an order came from the palace to the Princess of Xing’an county to rest at home, she didn’t have to attend Princess Long Qing’s wedding. The Princess of Xing’an county was angry and ashamed. She was lying sick in the room these two days!

After getting off at the East gate of Palace, Yong Ruo, dressed in the official dress of a Furen, followed Taifei and others on foot to the Queen’s Kund Palace.

She held a long box in her hand, which contained two ancient paintings. This was a dowry gift for Princess Long Qing by Xingjun Wangfu.

Even the eunuchs of the royal palaces and princess palaces weren’t eligible to enter the palace. They could only wait outside the palace gates.

In the palace with Yong Ruo were the younger married women, concubines, the servants of the concubines and princesses. Therefore, Yong Ruo could only hold the box with ancient paintings with her hands. Fortunately, the box was very light and was easy to hold.

Princess Long Qing was the only child of the Emperor. Therefore, she had been raised in the Queen’s Kunde Palace since she was born, and today’s dowry ceremony was also performed there.

There were housekeepers along the way. Shen Taifei casually asked the housekeeper a few things, such as who had come, and if the queen mother was busy recently.

The housekeeper answered each one with a smile, and then took them to the Kunde Palace slowly.

It was a day of great joy. Many people came to the palace for the ceremony.

After arriving at the Kunde Palace, there was no need to report themself again. The court lady welcomed the guests at the door and directly led them in.

Feng Liao’s sister-in-law Jun Wang Fei held her big belly and brought her husband Ping Jun’s concubines.

When she heard the name of Shen Taifei from the inner servant, she immediately rose to welcome her.

Yong Ruo heard a very kind voice saying, “Get up! Get on the seat!”

The so-called gift seat was naturally only given to Shen Taifei.

In such occasions where the elders of the royal family and the noble ladies in the palace gathered, even the younger daughter-in-law, such as Princess Xing, was not qualified to take a seat in the main hall of the Kunde Palace. Yong Ruo and the others were even less likely. Princess Heng Jun was able to get a seat because she had a big belly.

After Shen Tai Fei sat down, it was Princess Xing who represented Prince Xing and offered gifts to Princess Long Qing.

A total of three gifts were presented by her, one from the Prince’s Mansion, one from the elder Shen Taifei and one from the imperial concubine.

After the Prince’s Mansion, it was Yong Ruo’s turn to step forward.

Holding the long box with the ancient painting in her hand, she stepped forward and knelt down, “Qie shen Yongshi the Furen of Xingjun, Xingjun County, presents Chu Daoyuan’s Butterflies on Double Peony and Taoist master Wu’s “Autumn Sunset on Mountain”, to add to the princess dowry, to congratulate the princess on her wedding and hope that the princess and the Prince consort can be together for 100 years and have many children!”

(Double peonies are of those peonies which have multiple rows of petals. emerging from the crown of the flower with the crown of the flower covered by petals.)

There was a sound of exclamation from the noble ladies around, “It turned out that those two paintings existed!”

“These two true paintings are now valuable and unique treasures. Wang Xingjun even took it out as gifts to the princess, really like true brothers and sisters!”

Queen Wei also laughed, “It’s a good gift. I thank the Xingjun King on behalf of the princess! Get up!”

The court lady in the temple took the box from Yong Ruo. She stood up and stepped back, standing behind Shen Taifei as the background board.

In the hall, noble ladies from various royal palaces, Grand princes palace and even the Aunt princess palaces constantly came in to give gifts and congratulate Princess Long Qing.

(Grand Princess is the emperor’s sister. Aunt Princess is emperor’s aunt.)

In Yong Ruo’s mind, there was a constant shout, ‘Who and whose body, how many units of a certain level of contraceptive drug is there?’

Yong Ruo looked at those people to keep them in mind.

She planned to wait for the palace feast to find the opportunity to absorb the medicine from these people.

Although Xun’s scan range was only three meters, she stood near the door at this moment. Therefore, she almost already knew who in the hall had a contraceptive drug and who didn’t have it.

She found some very interesting rules.

Most of the young princesses accompanied the grand princess and Aunt princess into the palace had few sterility drugs in their bodies.

And in the major palaces, there were many people carrying sterility drugs, and the distribution of sterility drugs on them was all in a nest.

Other palaces were just the opposite. Except for one or two people who were clean in the body, others were unlucky people.

Another rule was that in the same palace, the sterilization drugs in those unfortunate people were mostly the same type, with a maximum of two or three units.

She had not found any other cases of sterility drugs like the Xingjun Mansion.

For example, in the Pingjun Wangfu, except for the Pingjun princess, other side concubines had sterilization drugs in their bodies, and they were the same type.

It could basically be concluded that it should be administered to the side concubines by the same person.

In common sense, in this case, the princess of Ping County was the most clear suspect, because she was the biggest beneficiary.

But Yong Ruo seemed to be unable to connect this person with the incident to a gentle and kind princess. Could she do such a sinister thing, then pretend too?

This was unusual.

Why did Prince Ping’s Mansion have such a case?

Was it related to family style? Or did someone secretly create such a situation?
