Prince Li's Mansion.

In the ice cellar.

Xi Qingyan brought Su Xiaomo, who was wrapped in a cloak, and Xi Xiaochen went in together. Xi Xiaochen had been reading and practicing calligraphy with Su Xiaomo, but when he heard that his mother was coming, he couldn't wait to walk in.

"Su Lixiao, you are an obedient patient."

Xi Qingyan looked at the guards on both sides of the ice cellar walking along and spoke softly to Su Lixiao.

"Miss Xi, you have warned that the Nine Soul Grass here can cure His Highness's old illnesses. Naturally, those of us who are subordinates will not dare to neglect it for a moment."

Yunfei just saw Xi Qingyan and Prince Li's lips quarreling. He was worried that the two of them would continue to argue, so Yunfei quickly stepped forward to explain to his master.

"Actually, in addition to sending people to protect this Nine Soul Grass, His Highness also takes the pills given by you every day. Our master is hard-spoken and soft-hearted. Miss, you must not talk to our family.

The master has ordinary knowledge!"

As soon as Yunfei finished speaking, Su Lixiao on the side gave Yunfei a quick glance.

"You are the only one who talks too much."

Seeing Su Lixiao like this, Xi Qingyan was in a good mood. She smiled slightly and spoke to Yunfei beside her.

"Don't worry, we doctors are all open-minded and will never get into trouble with patients over trivial matters."

"Although Su Lixiao was not a worry-free patient before, it is impossible for me, a doctor, to care about this with a patient of his!"

As soon as Xi Qingyan finished speaking, Su Lixiao became unhappy.

Why does this woman have to be so tit-for-tat every time she sees him?

"What? Is there something dirty on my face? Or does His Highness Prince Li think what I just said was offensive?"

Xi Qingyan noticed Su Lixiao staring at her and raised her voice deliberately.

"...!"

Su Lixiao was caught off guard by what Xi Qingyan said and actually forgot to respond.

"Mom, you are indeed the best! I have lived in this palace for so many days, and this is the first time I have seen someone who can make my father speechless!"

Xi Xiaochen always said what he had to say, and he never shied away from this matter.

"Xiaochen, Xiaochen!"

Su Xiaomo was different from Xi Xiaochen. When he heard what Xi Xiaochen said, he quickly grabbed Xiaochen and reminded him to speak out.

"Xiaochen, please stop talking. Daddy will be unhappy!"

"..."

Su Lixiao was a little unhappy at first and was ready to retaliate in kind, but after his two sons made such a fuss, his unhappiness dissipated a lot.

"Wow! Mom, the flowers of this grass are so beautiful!"

The child's attention was transferred professionally without any warning. One moment, Xi Xiaochen was still talking about his father Su Lixiao, and the next moment his eyes were fixed on the Nine Soul Grass not far away.

"Well, Xiaochen is right, it's so beautiful."

Su Xiaomo looked at the Nine Soul Grass, which was inconspicuous before, and it actually grew clusters of dark blue flowers. Those flowers were different from all the blue flowers he had seen.

"Your Highness Prince Li, it seems that your subordinate Yun Fei has taken good care of the Nine Soul Grass. The Nine Soul Grass grown in the Miracle Doctor's Grain back then did not bloom as vigorously as in your ice cellar."

Xi Qingyan looked at the Nine Soul Grass and sighed sincerely.

This was not the first time she had seen the Nine Soul Grass. She had also thought about these herbs when she was studying those difficult and complicated diseases in the Valley of Miracle Doctors that day.

She even cultivated the Nine Soul Grass herself, but because the environment in which the Nine Soul Grass grew was too harsh, she had never been able to grow it.

"Miss Xi, you are ridiculous. Yunfei just did what he should do."

Yunfei was very embarrassed to be praised by Xi Qingyan.

"There's just something unclear about Yun Fei. This Nine Soul Grass was brought by Miss Xi from Concubine Dong's harem."

"I heard that the Nine Soul Grass was planted in Concubine Dong Guifei's courtyard that day, but why did the Nine Soul Grass have to be planted in the ice cellar when we arrived at Prince Li's Mansion?"

Yunfei is puzzled by the fact that the Nine Soul Grass is becoming more and more prosperous in the ice cellar.

It's not that he has seen strange flowers and rare herbs before, but this is the first time he has seen such a strange herb as Nine Soul Grass.

"Actually, the Nine Soul Grass can be planted in a normal environment. It doesn't have to be in an ice cellar. It can survive when it grows in Concubine Dong Guifei's courtyard. However, only in extremely cold conditions can the Nine Soul Grass truly bloom and bear fruit.

.”

"Nine Soul Grass is named Nine Soul Grass because it can grow in environments where humans cannot survive. Your master, Su Lixiao, needs the fruit of Nine Soul Grass to cure his old illness. Now, you guys

Take good care of this Nine Soul Grass. It has already bloomed, and it will bear fruit in a short time. The fresh Nine Soul Grass fruit can heal your master's body to the greatest extent."

Xi Qingyan explained to Yunfei who looked curious.

"Miss Xi, do you really mean what you say?"

"Of course it's true."

Xi Qingyan nodded.

"Yunfei, the Nine Soul Grass has bloomed now, and it won't be too long before it bears fruit. Remember to send someone to guard it every hour in the ice cellar until the fruit matures and falls from the Nine Soul Grass.

When you fall, go to Shangshu Mansion to find me immediately."

Su Lixiao's old illness is not difficult to cure, but the difficult part is waiting for the Nine Soul Grass to bloom and bear fruit.

"Miss Xi, don't worry, Yunfei will definitely guard here without any hesitation. I will not let the fruits of the Nine Soul Grass go to waste!"

"That's good."

Xi Qingyan saw the progress of the Nine Soul Grass and already had a plan in mind.

Su Lixiao watched Xi Qingyan and Yunfei's calm conversation from the side, feeling very uncomfortable.

Why can other people talk to Xi Qingyan so freely, but every time he talks to Xi Qingyan, he ends up unhappy.

"Mom, it's so cold in here. Xiaochen wants a hug from my mother."

Xi Xiaochen stretched out her little hand and hugged Xi Qingyan's leg. Only then did she realize that the temperature in the ice cellar was indeed not suitable for staying for a long time.

"Okay! Mom hugs you."

Xi Qingyan held Xi Xiaochen in her arms. At the same time, she also held Su Xiaomo with her other hand. The palm of her hand was also flesh, and the back of her hand was also flesh.

There was no reason for her to only care about Xi Xiaochen and ignore Su Xiaomo.

"Mother!!"

Su Xiaomo was originally very envious of Xi Xiaochen's ability to directly say what was on his mind, but the next moment, Xi Qingyan held him in her arms.

Su Xiaomo was very happy, but he was also worried that Xi Qingyan couldn't hold him and Xi Xiaochen.

"Mother, Xiao Mo can walk by himself. There are steps on the way out. It's not safe for mother to carry me and my brother..."

Even though Su Xiaomo longed to be close to his mother in his heart, he would not let his mother and Xiaochen take risks because of this matter.

"this……"

Xi Qingyan had to sigh, Su Xiaomo was indeed more mature and stable than Xi Xiaochen, whom she had trained for four or five years.

"It's not like you only have this woman as your only relative, I, the father, can also carry you out."

Seeing that Xi Qingyan was in trouble, Su Lixiao directly lifted Su Xiaomo into his arms, and then covered Xi Qingyan with the cloak he was wearing.

"Xiaochen doesn't have a cloak on him. I don't want to see my son freezing."

After Su Lixiao finished speaking, she hugged Su Xiaomo and walked out without looking back.

Xi Qingyan smiled when she saw Su Lixiao acting like this.

She used to think that Su Lixiao was a dead iceberg, but now it seems that Su Lixiao is still an arrogant iceberg.

"Mother, Xiaochen, won't you follow us?"

While Xi Qingyan was thinking, Su Xiaomo in front stretched out his head from Su Lixiao's arms and softly called to Xi Qingyan who had stopped moving forward.

"coming."

After Xi Qingyan got rid of those thoughts in her mind, she walked up the steps and walked out of the ice cellar.

Because of the pleas of Su Xiaomo and Xi Xiaochen, Xi Qingyan was under the influence of Prince Li again.

After having lunch with the two little guys, I just returned to the Minister of Rites' Mansion through the back door of Prince Li's Mansion.

Inside Hanlian Garden.

When Chuntao saw Xi Qingyan coming back from outside, she quickly stepped forward to report what the eldest lady had given her.

"Miss, it was my fault before. I did underestimate the cruelty of the second lady. Today, the Qiuxiang in our yard really started to contact the madam and the second lady just like you said, eldest lady!"

Chuntao followed Xi Qingyan into the house. After finding no one else around, she told Xi Qingyan everything she saw.

"That's true."

Xi Qingyan was not surprised that Qiuxiang contacted the second lady and Mrs. Shangshu.

Because if Xi Chuyu and Mrs. Shangshu did not make any big move, she would really find it incredible. After all, whenever Xi Chuyu suffered a loss, both mother and daughter would not endure it quietly. If they did not come back with revenge, then they would not be Mrs. Shangshu and Xi Chuyu.
