Gu Chen smiled slightly, and Gu said to him, "In three days, someone sent something to Yangcheng. The prince found a way to deliver something to Yuxiu Palace. The Empress naturally understood."

"What is something?" King Cheng asked subconsciously.

Gu Chen looked mysterious and smiled evilly, and made a move to silence. King Cheng could only put away his curiosity and guess what he had sent in three days.

On a misty spring night, a carriage that was so ordinary that it was rushed into Yangcheng before the city gate was closed.

The soldiers guarding the city impatiently stopped the carriage, "Who is it? What are you doing when you enter the city at this time?"

The coachman was a little scared and poked a head out of the car window. He was a middle-aged man with a pale face and coughing. He had a jade hairpin on his head, looking a little bit identity.

These people are all human beings. When they see the person dressed up like this, their tone of speaking instantly eased a lot.

The rain is getting denser and denser.

The middle-aged man said politely: "Several adults, I am a business in Fengzhou. I went to Yangcheng to do business and asked the doctor to see the old diseases. Because it was raining, the carriage had some problems on the road, which was delayed until now. Fortunately, I finally entered the city. Here I had some thoughts. I also asked the adults not to refuse. It was cold that day, so I took some wine to warm my body."

The coachman took the purse handed out from the carriage and was so respectful that he served it with both hands.

When several soldiers saw the bulging purse, their attitude became even gentler. They even warmly pointed the direction of the inn and clinic to the middle-aged man, and let people go without even checking.

When the carriage left, a group of people opened their purses and looked at them. They immediately looked bright and thought to themselves that they had made a fortune this time!

The carriage galloped in the rain and headed straight for the Chengwang Mansion.

The concierge took the middle-aged man's greeting letter in, and soon asked the coachman to drive the carriage in.

In the side courtyard of Prince Cheng’s Mansion.

Cheng Wang and his wife looked at the visitor in scrutiny and asked, "Do you say you are the manager of the Nangong family?"

The middle-aged man replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, the young Shunzi, is indeed the manager of the Nangong family, and he has always been in charge of the Nangong family's shop business, so he rarely returns to Jeju's Nangong Mansion.

This time, the small shop accidentally got some good things and specially asked someone to configure them as medicines to improve the Queen's stubborn disease. However, this thing is also a good thing for older people. The family is mainly dedicated to the Queen, but the things are only a little bit. If it is given to the Queen in the name of the Nangong family, it is inevitable that the Queen Mother will not be able to tell if she knows it, so she can only find Your Highness Cheng and ask Your Highness Cheng to hand over the Queen's things to the Queen. If someone asks me, it doesn't need to say it's from the Nangong family. It's just that the Queen asked you to treat the disease."

Seeing that King Cheng was suspicious, Shunzi opened the box calmly, and there were ten neatly arranged medicines. He opened the bottle in front of King Cheng and his wife, taking one bottle, and said with a smile: "The little one tried the medicine with his body, and asked the prince and the princess to rest assured. This thing is completely fine. If the prince still has doubts, he can ask the doctor to check it. The little one just hopes that the prince can hand it over to the queen without placing it with others, and do not mention the Nangong family."

I can't understand this King of Become. If the medicine is fine, why can't I say it?

It is hard for King Cheng to ask, but Princess Cheng doesn’t have so much concern, let alone this special time. “Since you say that these medicines are fine, we believe you too, but why can’t you mention the Nangong family and please let me know, otherwise we will be uneasy.”

Shunzi was surprised by Princess Cheng's intuition, pondered for a moment, and frowned and said, "I don't know why. The head of the family only said that it is not easy for the Empress to be in the palace. He was worried that the emperor would not want to have too frequent contact with the Empress. The young speculated that it might be because of the border war.

The prince and the princess didn't know that this border war was short of not only food and grass but also weapons. Weapons were always sensitive, but General Song was anxious. The emperor was not in charge of the affairs during that period and was not very concerned about the war. After weighing the pros and cons, the family leader could make good decisions and secretly sent General Song a batch of weapons. It was said that it had just been developed and had not yet obtained the emperor's approval. The Ministry of War did not produce in large quantities. If this matter was exposed, the Nangong family would be finished.

The little one risked the beheading and told the prince and the princess about this matter. I hope you can help the Nangong family keep the secret. If the matter is leaked, not only the Nangong family, but also the Song family and the Princess will be affected."

Princess Cheng was so scared that she was sweating coldly, and she was frightened and angry, "The head of the Nangong family is so bold! If this matter really spreads, not one or two people will die!"

Shunzi knelt down with a plop and said sincerely: "That is why the head of the family wants to ask the prince and the princess for help. If there is no way, the head of the family doesn't have to send a pill and hide his head and tail, so he dare not let people know.

General Song said that as long as the border war is won, he will take over everything after returning to Yangcheng. At that time, even if the emperor wants to kill or cut him, he will admit it. But my head of the family can't bear to let General Song take it alone. At that time, the matter is really exposed, and my head of the family has no intention of staying out of the matter. However, he does not want to implicate the Empress and the Crown Prince, so he dare not have any contact with the Empress. He can only ask Prince Cheng and the Princess for this matter."

King Cheng was confused at this moment and frowned with headache and said, "Okay, okay, put down your things and leave the back door, and just pretend that you have never been to Prince Cheng's Mansion."

Shunzi was happy and respectfully stepped out.

Princess Cheng hit the head and two of them, and sat down powerlessly, "Prince, why did you think things turned out like this? How dare General Song do such a thing with courage? What's even more puzzling is that the head of the Nangong family also got involved. This is a big matter that lost its head!"

"Don't be anxious, let me think about it..." King Cheng is also in chaos now, but he cannot show any slightest expression, otherwise Princess Cheng will be even more uneasy.

The couple sat silently in the candlelight for a long time. After a long time, Princess Cheng's legs were numb. King Cheng said quietly: "We have no way out now. A few days ago, the head of the Liu family told me that someone would send something to the door today and asked us to help deliver it to Yuxiu Palace. At that time, I was still wondering who he was, and it took such a big effort from the head of the Liu family. Unexpectedly, there was such a hidden story here.
