After Dong Xu put the banknotes back into Jiang Jingyu's room, she continued to sit with Qiu Shuang on the steps at the door to accompany Jiang Jingyu.
Jiang Jingyu lowered her head to make incense. This time she wanted to make soothing incense, not for herself, but for the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother's poor sleep quality is no secret in the Imperial City. Both the imperial physicians in the palace and the doctors in the Imperial City are trying to find ways to solve the Queen Mother's problems.
Whenever there is a good recipe, he will advise the Queen Mother and let her try it.
Over the years, the Queen Mother has tried numerous types of tranquilizers and soothing incense, but her sleep quality has not improved.
Jiang Jingyu saw that the system mall had soothing powder and bought a bottle, hoping to mix it into the incense secretly.
Song Wenjing was not only a well-loved wise king, but also a filial son praised by everyone.
He had been hiding in the dark these past few days, and Jiang Jingyu wanted to use Anshenxiang to force him.
Song Wenjing stood on the eaves, looking down at Jiang Jingyu in the courtyard.
There was some unknown aggression in his eyes.
A crisp fragrance floated from the perfume table. Qiu Shuang took a deep breath and asked curiously: "Miss, what kind of fragrance is this? It smells so good!"
"White sandalwood."
Jiang Jingyu didn't even raise his head, and quietly sprinkled the calming powder among the spices.
Song Wenjing's eyes flashed above the roof, white sandalwood was her mother's favorite incense.
Could it be that she also likes white sandalwood?
Song Wenjing was a little surprised, and looked at Jiang Jingyu with a hint of deep meaning in her eyes.
After Jiang Jingyu mixed the incense, he took two incense and turned around: "You have worked hard cleaning the courtyard these past two days. Go and light this white sandalwood. Have a good sleep tonight."
Nanyuan has been abandoned and no one has cleaned it. Qiu Shuang and Dong Xu cleaned it for several days before cleaning up Nanyuan.
Although Nanyuan is in a remote location, it still has a smoky atmosphere after being cleaned.
Qiu Shuang and Dong Xu's eyes lit up, they stood up and walked towards Jiang Jingyu, curiously looking at the petal-shaped incense in her hand.
"Miss, is this white sandalwood incense added with soothing incense? I feel sleepy after just a few sniffs!"
Jiang Jingyu raised her eyebrows slightly: "There is indeed some soothing incense in it. Go back and light it quickly. You don't have to follow me to the shop tomorrow morning. There's nothing going on at home. You two just sleep until you wake up naturally."
Qiu Shuang took Jiang Jingyu's arm and looked at her with a smile: "This slave must have done all the good things in her previous life. Only in this life did she meet such a good master!"
Dong Xu also laughed, and she glanced at the perfume table behind Jiang Jingyu.
"Miss, have you finished mixing the incense? I will go and clean up the incense table right now."
"Okay, it's getting late. It's not too late to clean up tomorrow. Go back and have a rest."
As soon as Dong Xu finished speaking, Jiang Jingyu stopped her. She handed the incense in her hand to the two of them and then drove them back to the room.
Waiting until Nanyuan fell into darkness, Song Wenjing flew down and landed in front of the perfume table.
In addition to various spices, there was also a petal-shaped incense on the table. Song Wenjing picked up the incense and put it in front of her nose and smelled it.
At this moment, Jiang Jingyu's room suddenly turned on the lights, and the candlelight shone through the window, shining directly on Song Wenjing.
Song Wenjing was startled and hurriedly fled!
Song Wenjing flew all the way until he left the general's mansion and slowly stopped. His breathing was rapid, and there was astonishment in his eyes that had not yet dissipated.
He planned to show up in front of her in advance, but not in this situation where he was defenseless!
She shouldn't have seen herself just now, right?
As soon as Song Wenjing left, Jiang Jingyu came to the window with her hind legs.
Her eyes fell on the incense table. The incense she deliberately left behind had been taken away by Song Wenjing in desperation.
Now the seeds have been planted and are just waiting to sprout.
The next day.
After an imperial decree came down, Zhou Huaiqian was transferred to Xuzhou to suppress bandits.
Xuzhou has been experiencing unrest recently, and banditry is rampant. The officers and soldiers of Xuzhou Yamen suppressed the bandits several times but failed to catch all the robbers.
Song Wenjing appointed Zhou Huaiqian as the commander-in-chief of the reinforcement and suppression force to lead the soldiers to Xuzhou, and ordered him to wipe out the robbers and restore peace to the people of Xuzhou.
Zhou Huaiqian was extremely excited because His Majesty reused him. He returned home in high spirits and directly handed over the control of the General's Mansion to Jiang Jingyu, and then led his soldiers to Xuzhou.
Song Wenjing went to the Queen Mother's palace to have breakfast with her after leaving the morning court.
The Queen Mother was in great spirits today. When she saw Song Wenjing coming in, she smiled and waved to him.
"Jing'er, come on, these dishes today are all your favorites."
Song Wenjing came to sit next to the Queen Mother, looked at the Queen Mother and said, "The Queen Mother looks good today."
The Queen Mother smiled: "Thanks to Jing'er, the Queen Mother slept very well last night after using the incense you sent. She has not had such a solid sleep for a long time."
Song Wenjing's eyes flashed slightly, she didn't expect the incense she made to have such an immediate effect.
"Jing'er, which perfumer made the incense last night? It's a reward!" the Queen Mother said with a smile while serving Song Wenjing.
Song Wenjing lowered her head and took a sip of porridge, and said calmly: "Well, I'll reward you."
"Don't just drink porridge, eat vegetables quickly. These dishes are specially prepared by the Queen Mother in the imperial kitchen. They are all your favorites."
"I heard from Eunuch Su that you haven't eaten much in the past few nights. The queen mother knows that there are many affairs in the court, but how can you do it without eating?"
Song Wenjing paused, did not explain, and continued to drink porridge.
The Queen Mother chattered for a while, then looked at Song Wenjing expectantly: "Jing'er, has the perfumer prepared the delicate fragrance you mentioned?"
The white sandalwood last night had such a soothing effect that the Queen Mother subconsciously thought that a new perfumer had arrived in the palace, and she rekindled hope in this matter.
Song Wenjing shook her head slightly: "No."
The hope in the Queen Mother's eyes faded, and the rice in the bowl suddenly lost its aroma.
Thinking of something, the Queen Mother asked again: "Has Jing'er found out the identity of that woman?"
"Yes, I found it."
The Queen Mother's eyes lit up, and she grabbed the back of Song Wenjing's hand in excitement: "Since Jing'er doesn't resist her touch, why not include her in the harem?"
Song Wenjing couldn't drink the porridge at all.
He looked up at the Queen Mother and said calmly: "She has a special status. I would like to slow down and give her some time."
The Queen Mother's eyes widened in disbelief: "Jing'er means that she also has the idea of bringing that woman into the harem?"
Song Wenjing nodded and admitted that the moment he confirmed his feelings, he decided to take her into the palace and let her always be by his side.
"Oh! Great, great! You finally have the same idea as your mother on one thing!"
The Queen Mother excitedly patted the back of Song Wenjing's hand, and the wrinkles on her face deepened a little with her smile.
"Jing'er, who is that woman? Don't worry, no matter how special her status is, as long as Jing'er likes it, the Queen Mother will support her with both hands!"
