After a short four hours of sleep, Ning Shu opened her eyes as soon as the sky brightened. She looked at the empty space beside her, but there was still some warmth left, as well as the gentle and pleasant smell of her mother. Just like when she was a child, she buried her head in her mother's blanket and sniffed carefully. As long as she was by her mother's side, she would always be happy to be a child who never grew up.
However...
Ning Shu recalled her mother's evasiveness when she spoke last night. She felt that there was more to her mother's words, that there were still many things she hadn't said. She had a feeling that it had something to do with Xiahou Qing. It might even have something to do with the destruction of her Ning family in her previous life. However, her mother insisted on not saying anything. She didn't even want to reveal the slightest detail. What kind of secret was it that made her so fearful and secretive? He had to think of a way to deal with it.
While she was deep in thought, the door creaked open. Forsythia came in with a basin of water. "Miss, you're awake?"
Ning Shu lazily waved her hand at Forsythia. "Good Forsythia, come and give me a massage."
Forsythia obediently put down the basin like a little wife and sat by the bed to massage her shoulders. "Miss, do you have something important to do today?"
Ning Shu lifted the blanket and got up. "Yes, it's something very, very important. It concerns Princess Changping's happiness for the rest of her life. With the princess's impatient personality, she's probably anxious by now. We have to hurry. Oh right, when did mother leave? "
"About an hour ago. She specially got up to make some red bean and barley soup for you. She personally took care of the heat. When it was done, she was afraid that she would wake you up, so she went back to her room to rest. Before she left, she specifically told me to make sure you drink this soup. I'll bring it over right now. "
Ning Shu smiled. "Good, good, good. Mother personally made it. Not to mention red bean and barley soup, even if it was poison, I would drink it without leaving a drop behind."
After drinking the soup and freshening up, Ning Shu rushed to the palace to have an audience.
"Ning Shu, you're finally here! Why are you so slow? Do you know that I was so nervous that I couldn't sleep the whole night? I was so anxious waiting! "In the end, she was still a little girl who had never experienced anything. Even when she was angry, she still looked cute. As soon as he saw Ning Shu, Xiao Zhangping came forward to greet her. Her face was covered with a veil, and the heavy bruises under her eyes revealed her night of tossing and turning.
Ning Shu had taken the pills prepared by Huimo in advance, and she was not as contagious as smallpox. Therefore, she was not afraid of her, "Your Highness, calm down. I will go to the palace at noon to have a state banquet with His Majesty. After that, I will ask you to come back with me. Before that, please don't be impatient. By the way, how is His Highness's cowpox? "
After being comforted by Ning Shu, Xiao Zhangping's uneasy mood calmed down a little. She glanced around and ordered Hongfei to go outside to guard. Only then did she dare to remove her veil and reveal her arms.
Ning Shu nodded her head. "Huimo's craftsmanship is really good. Looking with the naked eye, these blisters are not much different from smallpox. Anyway, ordinary people like me can't tell. The rouge on your forehead needs to be swept a little more to make the illusion that you are feverish. "
Xiao Zhangping sat in front of the dressing table. Ning Shu bent down and carefully applied a layer of rouge on her forehead.
Looking at Ning Shu's serious face and eyes, Xiao Zhangping unconsciously dug her nails into her palm. She said with uncertainty, "Ning Shu, do you really think that we can deceive Father and the others?"
