Sui Sui Jianing

Chapter 53

Hearing what the doctor said, Liu's heart sank, and he greeted Shuixiu with a happy smile, "Send Doctor Bai back, and transfer 50 taels of silver to Doctor Bai from my private account."

Doctor Bai was taken aback for a moment, and then overjoyed, he bowed to Mrs. Liu again and again, and said a bunch of auspicious words that he didn't need money, so that Mrs. Liu almost gave him another 50 taels out of pocket.

It was still Shen Hanyu who couldn't stand it, and reminded: "Mother is still pregnant, so it is not appropriate to be too excited and overjoyed."

Liu Shi immediately patted herself on the face: "Yu'er is right, I got carried away with complacency."

She calmed down her breath, stroked her unswollen belly, her eyes were filled with kindness, "I thought that I would never have another child at my age, but I gave up, but I didn't expect... I was really pregnant."

Shen Hanyu looked at her belly, and his expression softened, "I don't know if it's a younger brother or a younger sister, but whether it's a man or a woman, they will live happily ever after."

"Yes."

Mrs. Liu happily said to Shen Hanyu: "Soon Yu'er will be an older brother."

Shen Hanyu nodded: "Such a great joy, I still have to send someone to tell my father."

"exactly--"

Liu quickly waved at Shui Xiang: "Go to the official office and tell Lord Hou about this."

"Wait a minute—" Shen Hanyu raised his hand to stop it.

Liu Shi was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"I just pretended to be sick and resigned from Princess Jianing's marriage. Your Majesty must have disliked the Boyanghou Mansion the most. If we were happy because of the affairs in the mansion, Your Majesty would definitely feel even more uncomfortable when he thought of Princess Jianing who was unconscious. Therefore, it is not appropriate to announce it to the outside world.”

Shen Hanyu calmly analyzed the pros and cons, and Liu's face turned pale when she said it. She sighed and said, "You are still thoughtful."

"Shui Xiang, when you go to talk to dad, you just say that there is something wrong in the house, and when dad asks you, you just say that Madam fainted, ask him to come back and take a look, and don't say anything else." Shen Hanyu ordered.

"Yes, the slave has written it down."

Shui Xiang took the order to leave, Shen Hanyu said to Liu Shi: "Mother, rest well, son will leave first."

Liu didn't hold back, and watched him leave with a smile.

Lingxi, who heard it clearly outside, silently broke off the branch in his hand, turned around and went back to his yard, and sent him a message according to the method Xin Zhi said.

……

After Xin Zhi received the news, he immediately told Chu Wuhen.

Chu Wuhen narrowed his eyes in an unclear manner, "Conceived? She is really blessed."

Xin Zhi gritted his teeth: "The mansion of the Marquis of Boyang was full of joy. After receiving the news from the official office, the Marquis of Boyang hurried back to the mansion, and rewarded Mrs. Liu with a bunch of things, and even rewarded the servants of the whole mansion for three months." The moon silver is really generous."

Xin Xing frowned: "He is only a marquis, and he spends so much money, where did he get the money?"

With a word to wake up the dreamer, Chu Wuhen stood up suddenly, with a ruthless expression: "Xin Zhi, ask someone to check the accounts of the Boyanghou Mansion to see where the main income comes from, and—— Let Lingxi and the eyeliner of the Boyanghou Mansion find out how much of my mother's dowry is left."

Xin Zhimeng's eyes widened, "Master, what you mean is that Bo Yanghou may have embezzled his wife's dowry?"

Xin Xing frowned: "It's not impossible, he dares to attack even people, so why not dare to lift up the dowry? Anyway, there is no proof of death."

Xin Zhi's face was gloomy: "Master, don't worry, this subordinate will definitely check him out! Not even a tael of money will be leaked."

Chu Wuhen nodded, and Xin Xing looked at his face and asked hesitantly: "Master, are you going to take action against Mrs. Liu? This child—is born, or not?"

Chu Wuhen glanced at him with deep eyes, "I'm not a good person. I won't let any of the family of Boyang Hou Mansion go unnoticed, but I don't know anything about a person, even whether they can be born or not. They both said that the baby will do it, if I act in the same way as Marquis Boyang, how will I have the face to see my mother under the nine springs in the future?"

Hearing what he said, Xin Xing's heart trembled, and he quickly knelt on one knee and said, "This subordinate offended, please punish me, master!"

"Get up, keep an eye on the assassin, and report immediately if you have any news."

After Chu Wuhen said something, he looked down at the things on the table.

Xin Xing stood up: "Yes."

……

Except for Chu Wuhen, no one else knew about the news of Liu's pregnancy, so there was no disturbance.

On the surface, Jindu is still a prosperous and peaceful scene, but under the flowers, there is already a piece of corruption.

Wei Jiusi stepped on the last light of the setting sun and returned to the palace. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, he was invited away by the bell who had been waiting for a long time.

Sitting on the chariot, Wei Jiusi asked anxiously, "Eunuch Zhong, what is your father looking for in this palace?"

Zhong Qian followed the chariot with a smile on his face, bowed and said, "Go back to Your Highness, the slave doesn't know, but His Majesty has always loved His Highness, so I think he just asked His Highness to come down and talk."

"Really..." Wei Jiusi always felt that her heart was going up and down, and her right eyelid was twitching all the time, which made her uncomfortable.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the imperial study, Wei Jiusi clenched the veil tightly, pursed his lips and stopped asking.

In the imperial study room, seeing that the light was dim, the court lady lit the candlesticks in several corners, and the dots of candles lit up little by little, intertwining into a sea of ​​light, enveloping the emperor.

The golden thread on the bright yellow dragon robe shone brightly.

Passing ladies secretly glanced at him. Although he was old, the emperor had been in a high position for a long time, and he was naturally majestic. Sitting there without saying a word, he was a little more graceful than ordinary people.

The little maid couldn't help but blush when she saw it.

I don't know if her gaze was too obvious, but the emperor suddenly raised his head to look over, and the little maid immediately lowered her head in fear and bowed back.

The emperor frowned and ignored it.

He glanced out at the sky, "It's already this time, why haven't you come back yet?"

He put down the memorial and stood up, paced in the imperial study room, walked around twice and suddenly heard the sound of the clock outside, he paused, and immediately turned his head to look.

When Wei Jiusi came in, he felt a heavy scrutiny on his head.

As soon as her legs were weak, she wanted to turn around and run.

But after all, I don't have the guts.

The emperor looked at his eldest daughter. When she lowered her eyebrows and eyes, she looked very much like a concubine Xian, gentle and submissive, but other than that, she didn't have much similarity with the concubine Xian. On the contrary, she was more like him, but her temperament was not good. Knowing who he followed, like a rabbit, he shrinks back when things happen, and dare not get close to him, so the relationship between father and daughter is quite weak.

Thinking of this, the emperor sighed silently, sat down with a flick of his sleeves, and said to Wei Jiusi: "Get up and sit down."

He pointed to the chair on one side, and Wei Jiusi said timidly, "Thank you, Father."

As soon as she touched the edge of the chair, she heard the emperor say: "You all go down."

"Yes."

The maids and eunuchs dispersed, the hall became quiet, and Wei Jiusi became more and more nervous.

What does the emperor want to say?Did he find out about her and Gongsunye?
