Those Court Ladies Were Scared to Death, Okay?

These people had received some information about it.

Zhou Wanwan looked at her and said, "You don't need to worry about that. You seem to know quite a lot, huh!"

Shangguan Wan'er snorted coldly:

Do you think you can get away with helping that bitch Shangguan Yun'er?

I plan to marry Shangguan Yun'er off to a 60-year-old man, and the wedding will be held soon!

Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said, "Is that so? Didn't Shangguan Yun'er intend to give her to Zhou Mingyang's family?"

Shangguan Wan'er laughed heartily, "Between me and Shangguan Yun'er, who do you think the Zhou Family will choose? I'm the Shangguan Family's granddaughter!"

Indeed, Zhou Mingyang really liked Shangguan Yun'er.

But the Shangguan Family was a powerful and influential clan; how could the Zhou Family dare to offend them?

In the end, Zhou Mingyang had no choice but to accept it.

Shangguan Wan'er said proudly, "In two days, I'll be marrying into the Zhou Family. Shangguan Yun'er will be getting married too, so be sure to come!"

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "Okay! I know, I'll definitely go."

When the door was opened, everyone was stunned.

Wasn't the character supposed to be the eldest princess? Why has she become the Empress Dowager?

Why is the Empress Dowager's nephew here too?

Everyone stared in astonishment. Old Madam Zhou trembled with fear, crying, "You... you have to leave right now!"

Those court ladies were terrified!

What kind of chaotic scene is this?

The last experience is still fresh in my mind, and now it's happening again?

These people had just left when, unexpectedly, before Old Madam Zhou could even leave, Yu Jingchen pulled her inside.

Old Madam Zhou shouted, "Hey! What are you doing? Let me go right now!"

But Yu Jingchen seemed to have lost his mind.

When Old Madam Zhou woke up, she saw the Empress Dowager covering her face and weeping bitterly. "Damn it, how am I supposed to get out of here? Haven't I become a laughingstock of the world?"

Old Madam Zhou shifted her body, a feeling of contentment washing over her.

"Oh my! Sister, what's the big deal? Even princesses keep male concubines!"

You are the most noble woman in the world, who dares to laugh at you?

The Empress Dowager glared at Yu Jingchen and said, "You little beast, get out of here!"

Yu Jingchen is completely terrified, okay?

What exactly did he do?

After he left, the Empress Dowager wept and said:

"Older sister, I really don't want to live anymore. What's the point of living like this?"

"I might as well just die. I'll just hang myself tonight."

How could Old Madam Zhou let her die?

Just kidding, this is her biggest sugar daddy!

She quickly tried to comfort her:

"What's so great about that? Just think of it as keeping a male concubine!"

Besides, you haven't had a man for so many years, isn't it normal to have one now?

The Empress Dowager wept uncontrollably. "That's no ordinary man! If my sister found out, she'd kill me on the spot!"

Old Madam Zhou said, "I think it's fine. Don't overthink it. You are the esteemed Empress Dowager; who would dare to harm you?"

How could those court ladies dare to stay?

They all left the palace; there were over 200 court ladies and over 500 young ladies.

The expressions in the eyes of those court ladies were complex and hard to describe.

Someone whispered, "Why do we always have to witness moments like this? It makes me feel so embarrassed."

"What can we do now that we've already seen it? I just didn't expect the Empress Dowager to be so open-minded at her age."

"Alright, stop joking. You won't even know how you died."

Ningyuan and Princess Jing'an sat blankly in Palace of Compassion and Tranquility.

Ning'an stomped her feet in anger. "What exactly is Mother trying to do? Doesn't she know this is a very shameful thing?"

Princess Jing'an sighed and said, "What can we do now? Everyone knows about it. How can we face anyone in public?"

Princess Ningyuan sneered:

"We're told to be virtuous wives, but now she's with Yu Jingchen."

Yu Jingchen really wants everything.

Yu Jingchen returned home, completely distracted.

His wife asked, "Husband, what's wrong? Did you just return from the palace? Did your aunt ask you to bring anything back?"

Yu Jingchen flicked his sleeve and said, "Enough nonsense, get out of here!"

His wife was startled. "What's wrong with you? Why are you taking it out on me?"

She had no idea what had happened in the palace.

The eldest princess, sitting in the carriage, said:

"Wanwan, your friend saved me today, right?"

That Yu Jingchen is utterly shameless. If I were to be humiliated by him today, I'd rather just die.

Zhou Wanwan looked at her and said, "Grandma, no, don't worry!"

He even wants me to be his concubine? That's just wishful thinking!

She got home, still grumbling and cursing.

That old lecher.

Now look what's happened! The whole capital knows what kind of person she is; she's shameless.

Do you think the Empress Dowager might not be able to handle the shock and hang herself?

Now that she's joined forces with Noble Consort Ning, doesn't that mean we're left with no way to survive?

Zhou Wanwan laughed and said, "Her? She won't die! She's very open-minded right now."

"Huh? What does that mean?"

Zhou Wanwan said, "It's nothing, don't worry about it, just get some rest! I'm going out for a bit."

The eldest princess also didn't know where Zhou Wanwan had gone.

Zhou Wanwan naturally went to the field. She sat on the shoulder of the Old Scholar Tree and asked, "How are our medicinal herbs going?"

The Old Scholar Tree led her to a mountain path. "This whole area is full of our medicinal herbs."

Lingbao popped out of the bag and said, "Oh! Aren't these all my children?"

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said:

"Yes! It's all those fibrous roots on your body. I've tried them too; other ginseng roots don't work."

Even wild ginseng that's been growing for decades or even centuries will have its tendrils wither and die off in no time if planted in the ground.

I don't know why your whiskers are so useful.

Grandpa He Shou Wu popped out from the side and said:

"Lingbao has gained sentience, and this kind of sentience is different from ordinary medicinal materials!"

The He Shou Wu) I nurtured are also different.

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said:

"I was planning to use my spiritual power; didn't I bring out a batch of stones from the palace?"

The plan is to catalyze all these medicinal herbs, as other countries need large quantities of them.

After Zhou Wanwan finished speaking, she held the medicinal herbs in her hand and began to slowly unleash her spiritual power.

All that could be seen was green light all around, and the Old Scholar Tree and the Old Ancestor closed their eyes.

These rays of light were like a tonic to them.

They desperately need it too.

An hour later, Zhou Wanwan opened her eyes and looked at the ginseng, He Shou Wu, huang jing in the ground and the ling zhi on the tree.

They've all grown much taller, like ginseng roots that are three to five years old.

Zhou Wanwan said with satisfaction:

"This spiritual power is actually quite useful!"

Next, we'll go raid and plunder! Let's start with Princess Jing'an and Princess Ningyuan's estates!
