The next night, Nian Shilan lay in bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep.
What came to mind sometimes was the human head that the prince threw casually, eyes open and rolled to the side.
Sometimes it was the sinister look in Yinzhen's eyes after he walked out from the depths of the racecourse.
Sometimes it seemed like thousands of troops were running in his mind, but the picture was of the prince leading his men into the depths of the racecourse to capture the assassin.
Nian Shilan's mind gradually became chaotic, and in this chaos, the headache began to attack again.
Seeing that Nian Shilan had been frightened for the past two days, Songzhi prepared pills and rice wine to treat headaches early in the morning.
At this time, Songzhi listened to Nian Shilan turning around on the bed, with faint moans of pain coming from her mouth.
She hurriedly took down a pot of water from the sealed coal stove in the corridor, filled it with water in a basin that had been prepared long ago, put the rice wine pot into the warm water, and warmed the wine through the water.
The little girls on duty tonight are Mangzhong and Hanlu.
Seeing that it was late at night, Songzhi didn't call them.
Mangzhong heard Songzhi lift the curtain and come out to get some water.
She quickly stood up and walked to Songzhi's side. She took the kettle from Songzhi's hand, turned around and put it back on the stove, then bent down to test the temperature of the wine.
The temperature is just right, suitable for taking medicine.
Songzhi and Mangzhong entered the house and gently called Nian Shilan to take medicine.
However, Nian Shilan couldn't wake up, she just felt like a nightmare, muttering inaudible words.
Nian Shilan fell asleep when she had a headache. She had a dream.
In the dream, she was following Ulanara, but Ulanara seemed unable to see her.
Ulanala sat in front of the carved huanghuali wood table in her inner room. Qiu Mei, who had been following her, was nowhere to be seen, and there was no one else waiting around her.
Nian Shilan stood beside her, and she was unaware.
She was reading a medical book by herself.
The medical book looked like an ancient book, and the edges of the pages were badly torn.
Ulanara turned over page after page, reading each page carefully.
Nian Shilan read for a long time and found that the ancient books recorded treatments for some common diseases, but those treatment methods did not seem to be seen every day.
After watching for a while, Nian Shilan lost his patience.
She murmured in her heart, but she didn't notice that Ulanara was very knowledgeable in medical skills.
Nian Shilan looked around and discovered that a child of about two years old was sleeping on the bed in Ulanara's inner room.
Just when Nian Shilan was about to move over to take a look at the child, he saw Ulanara stopped flipping through the book.
She stared at the page for a long time.
Nian Shilan was finally curious and came over.
The child on the bed suddenly cried, and Ulanara closed the page of the book.
Qiu Mei walked in from outside and called the wet nurse to put the child back to sleep.
The scene changes.
Nian Shilan saw Ulanara walking slowly in the palace garden holding a pregnant woman.
Nian Shilan followed, but she still couldn't see clearly what the woman Ulanara was supporting looked like.
No one here can still see Nian Shilan.
Nian Shilan only saw that the woman's profile was different from that of ordinary pregnant women.
Normally, pregnant women look much rounder when they are seven months pregnant. When Nian Shilan was in the mansion, both sisters-in-law looked like this during their pregnancy.
The woman in front of her was different. Only her belly looked bigger, her limbs still looked thin, and her shoulders and arms were not as thick as those of ordinary pregnant women.
Nian Shilan wanted to see clearly what the woman looked like.
As he approached Uranala, he saw her carefully helping the pregnant woman to sit down and said, "Fu Jin, slow down."
The woman called Fujin seemed to be smiling, but Nian Shilan still couldn't see her face clearly.
Yunxi smiled and patted Yi Xiu's hand, and said softly: "There are no outsiders here. My sister should call me eldest sister."
Nian Shilan knew in his heart that this should be the eldest daughter of General Anbei's mansion, and later the four direct descendants of Fujin, Ulanara and Yunxi.
Yi Xiu also smiled gently and asked Qiu Mei to open the food box she had been holding in her hand.
There were several kinds of tea and fruit snacks inside. Among them was a bowl of unknown food. It looked like mud, and it was shaped like a flower in the bowl. It was really exquisite.
Yi Xiu watched as the maid took out everything from the food box and placed it on the stone table in the garden.
She held the bowl of delicate flower-shaped food in both hands and brought it to Yunxi.
"Eldest sister, try it. This is the cheese-baked banana newly developed in the kitchen. It is sweet and delicious, and is most suitable for eldest sister's taste."
Yunxi still smiled, but did not take the bowl in Yixiu's hand.
Seeing this, Yi Xiu took out an empty bowl from the bottom of the food box, gently picked up a flower petal with jade chopsticks, brought it to his mouth and slowly ate it.
Yunxi smiled and said: "Sister, what do you mean by this? You know that I was lazy during pregnancy, and before I had time to speak, why did my sister do this behavior like testing poison first? It's like I'm blaming my sister for not believing in you."
Yi Xiu slowly swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Eldest sister is too worried. My sister just tested the temperature, and now it's just right for the mouth."
She picked up the bowl of cheese and bananas again and held it in front of Yunxi.
"Eldest sister, you might as well give it a try. A few days ago, the kitchen heard that the eldest sister was having difficulty conceiving during pregnancy, so she worked hard to develop this bowl of sweets. The eldest sister loves sweets. This bowl of sweets is made by the kitchen mashing bananas into a paste, adding milk and cheese. , and steamed with sucrose. There are no other ingredients in it, so eldest sister can eat it with confidence. According to the verification of the imperial doctor, steaming bananas is very good for the spleen and stomach, and it is just suitable for eldest sister’s current body.”
Yunxi took the bowl, took a few bites slowly, and spoke softly.
"Sister, eldest sister knows that you have always been resentful in your heart, but you should not interfere with my food."
Yi Xiu was shocked and quickly knelt down.
"Eldest sister, did you misunderstand something? How dare you, younger sister."
Yunxi put down the bowl in her hand, looked at Yi Xiu for a while, then picked up the bowl again and took a few bites.
He slowly spoke: "Eldest sister is just teasing you, seeing that you are nervous. Could it be that you have really done something to feel sorry for eldest sister?"
Yi Xiu bit his lower lip, and after a moment, Fang said with dissatisfaction.
"The eldest sister is used to making fun of her younger sister. How dare the younger sister have any other thoughts about the eldest sister? Even if I lend you ten courages, I wouldn't dare. The eldest sister's weight in the master's heart is unmatched by anyone, unless she is the younger sister. I don’t want to live anymore. The eldest sister will always be the eldest sister.”
After hearing this, Yunxi covered her lips and laughed.
"Okay, okay, I know you don't dare. You are my biological sister, and you entered the palace before me, so the master naturally has you in his heart."
She looked at the sky before speaking slowly and letting the maid help Yi Xiu stand up.
"This bowl of sweets is good. I'll ask the kitchen to make it more often in the future."
Yunxi stood up, but Yixiu still stepped forward to support her.
Nian Shilan was watching from the side and suddenly heard Yinzhen's voice.
