The good thing was that the Imperial Family did not have anything else but precious herbs. Even so, everyone could not help but worry that the Empress Dowager would not be able to survive this spring.
Thinking of this, Mo Yuanming's brows furrowed tightly. His previously smiling face was now filled with worry.
Jiujiu was not someone who did not know how to read people's expressions. Seeing Mo Yuanming like this, she knew that when he said that it was not good, it was extremely bad. Otherwise, with Mo Yuanming's temperament, how could he reveal such an expression?
Jiujiu originally did not want to meddle in other people's business, but seeing Mo Yuanming's deeply furrowed brows and worried expression, her heart instantly felt uncomfortable. She raised a hand to tug at the corner of Mo Yuanming's clothes and said in a low voice, "If you trust me, bring me to the palace to see your Imperial Grandmother."
"You?" Mo Yuanming looked at Jiujiu in shock, as if he did not know what Jiujiu meant by asking him to bring her to the palace to see his Imperial Grandmother.
Jiujiu held Mo Yuanming's hand and explained softly, "I have learned the art of oenorrhoea for a few years and am quite knowledgeable about nourishing the body."
Mo Yuanming looked at Jiujiu. Jiujiu's eyes were clear and he could see that she was genuinely concerned about his Imperial Grandmother's health. Although Mo Yuanming felt that Jiujiu's medical skills were definitely not as good as the imperial physicians', the way that Jiujiu wanted to help when she saw that he was worried made him feel that Jiujiu was a very nice girl.
Thinking about how his Imperial Grandmother had been worried about him and had not yet found his Princess Consort, he prepared to bring Jiujiu over.
Even if Jiujiu could not treat his Imperial Grandmother's illness, it was good to let his Imperial Grandmother see her and be happy.
Mo Yuanming held Jiujiu's hand and stood in front of the rose tree to talk for a while. Only then did Mo Yuanming hold Jiujiu's hand and return to the room.
Wang Ye, Wang Fei, and Cefei were already sitting in the hall. Behind Cefei was a girl wearing a white muslin dress with exquisite makeup. Looking at her appearance, she was about to become of age.
Jiujiu looked at the appearance of the people in the room and instantly understood. She was afraid that this young lady was the princess that everyone wanted to introduce to Mo Yuan Ming, but in the end, she had intercepted them.
Jiujiu was led by Mo Yuanming to greet the Wangye, the Wangfei, and the Concubine.
Jiujiu's appearance was proper and her aura was outstanding. Her etiquette and speech were natural and natural. If they did not know that Jiujiu was the daughter of a merchant family, they would be willing to believe that she was the daughter of a noble family.
If not for the fact that Jiujiu's birth was too low, with Jiujiu's appearance, she could marry Mo Yuan Ming as his wife. But now, Jiujiu's status was too low. If he really took Jiujiu as his wife, Mo Yuan Ming would become a laughing stock. Wang Fei sighed in her heart and only asked Jiujiu a few questions before dropping the subject.
Instead, it was Cefei who had been staring straight at Jiujiu since Jiujiu came in. When Wang Fei did not speak, Cefei smiled and said, "Such an exquisite young lady. If I did not hear that she was from a merchant family, I would have thought that she was the daughter of a noble family."
Everyone knew that Jiujiu was from a merchant family, but because Jiujiu's performance was too good, no one said anything. Now that Cefei had said this, it was the same as saying that Jiujiu's status was low and she was stepping on Jiujiu's face.
When she came in, Mo Yuan Ming did not pay any attention to the concubine. Even when he introduced her, he did not mention the concubine. It could be seen that Mo Yuan Ming did not like this concubine. At this moment, the concubine suddenly spoke about her identity. It could be seen that this concubine had a bad heart.
If it was in the past, Jiujiu would have retorted. But now, Wang Ye and Wang Fei were sitting in the seats of honor. Jiujiu looked down and did not make a sound. She was like a ball of flour, as if she did not hear Cefei's words.
Jiujiu did not make a sound, but Mo Yuan Ming was not happy.
He had called Jiujiu over to introduce his future wife to his father and mother. Who did this Cefei think she was? She dared to use Jiujiu's status to speak.
Mo Yuan Ming raised his eyebrows and looked coldly at Cefei. He laughed coldly and said, "That cannot be compared to Cefei's family background. When you first married into the family, there were many people in the capital who could not bear to part with you."
To outsiders, Cefei's family background was a daughter of a wealthy family. But in reality, it was not so. She was a courtesan. It was said that Wang Ye had met her when he was visiting the brothel. After a while, the two of them had an affair. In the end, she had used some tricks to get his father to take her into the family.
However, because her family background was too lowly, when she married into the family, the Empress Dowager had drunk a contraceptive soup. No matter how much Wang Ye doted on her, she was still a hen that could not lay eggs.
Mo Yuan Ming's words were a slap to Cefei's face. Cefei's face immediately darkened. She looked at Mo Yuan Ming with eyes that could spit fire. But she knew that she could not compare to Mo Yuan Ming, the heir to the family. Cefei could only suppress her anger and pretend that she did not hear anything.
Wang Ye only raised his eyes in response to Mo Yuan Ming's words. He continued to drink his tea, as if what happened here had nothing to do with him.
On the other hand, Wangfei's lips curved. She seemed to be very satisfied with this situation.
However, after glancing at Wang Ye, Jiujiu's eyes darkened. Wang Ye's expression was normal, but there was a faint black aura between his eyebrows. There was a trace of green light in his eyes. Ordinary people may not be able to see it, but Jiujiu could see it clearly. Wang Ye was obviously under a curse.
As for what kind of curse it was, it was unknown.
After sitting in the hall for a while, Wang Ye said that he had something to do and went to the study. Wangfei called Mo Yuan Ming away. Only Jiujiu and Cefei were left in the room.
Mo Yuan Ming did not want to leave, but Wangfei called him. He could only reluctantly agree. Before he left, he did not forget to remind Jiujiu to stay in the room and wait for his return.
When he was taken away, Mo Yuan Ming was still worried and glared fiercely at Cefei. It was obvious that he was warning Cefei.
Although Cefei was Cefei, she was only a few years older than Mo Yuan Ming. At this moment, seeing Mo Yuan Ming glaring fiercely at her because of Jiujiu, Cefei thought of how Wang Ye did not look at her when he left. Cefei felt a chill in her heart. She looked at Jiujiu with an unfriendly gaze.
Cefei looked at Jiujiu.
Although Jiujiu looked young and inexperienced, under her clothes, there was a different flavor. Her clothes were especially innovative. The Cefei could not help but have a different idea.
Cefei tilted her head to look at Liu Qian and said, "I suddenly remembered that I left my gift for Miss Li in the room. Qian 'er, help me get it."
Didn't the gift already come?
Liu Qian was puzzled. But because Cefei asked her to leave, she paused and quickly left.
After Liu Qian left, Cefei walked over to Jiujiu's side and looked at Jiujiu. She lowered her voice and said, "You also transmigrated."
