Chapter 189

"Mrs. Xiao, it's too late. I can't wait any longer!" The flower attendant looked at her sadly, and said, "Prince Rong asked the old man to hand over the formula to him a month ago. At that time, the old man said it was He was very displeased at the fact that the ancestral skills should not be passed on to the outside world, but he still gave the old man a one-month deadline to consider, and now, the one-month deadline is approaching, if the old man does not hand over the formula, he may even die!"

Lin Xueman was startled, and hurriedly said, "Outside the members, although the ancestral skills cannot be easily passed on to the outside world, but your own wealth and life are the most important. As long as you keep the green hills, are you afraid that there will be no firewood?"

"Madam Xiao, don't worry, as long as Madam agrees to keep the formula for the old man, and pass it back to the descendants of my Hua family in the future, the old man will have his own way to deal with Prince Rong." The flower staff member hurriedly took out a small brocade from her bosom. He held the box in front of Lin Xueman with both hands, and begged, "Madam Xiao must help."

"Then, I'll keep it for you first." Lin Xueman hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly took it over, and said, "Don't worry outside the staff, maybe things are far from as bad as you think!"

"Mrs. Xie Xiao!" Seeing her taking the brocade box, the flower worker seemed relieved. He looked around and saw that the surrounding was empty except for a few figures on the beach in front of him carrying the boat, and then looked at Lin Xueman. , seemed to have made a lot of determination, and said in a low voice, "The reason why those Yuezhi people are so confident in Yuzhou is that Prince Rong is behind them. Moreover, the reason why Yuzhou's defenders have continued to expand over the years Land, that’s because the number of defenders far exceeds the stipulated number, the defenders of Yuzhou. In fact, Prince Rong has always been in control.”

Lin Xueman naturally knew about the land matter, but this was the first time she heard of Prince Rong supporting the Yuezhi people, but she was not interested in this matter at all.

"I'm a businessman, and I didn't want to participate in political affairs, but how can there be eggs in the whole nest?" Hua Yuanwai paused.Continue to whisper, "Mrs. Xiao, listen to the old man again, and see if the old man can make sense of his words in the future. Prince Rong is ambitious and will not be willing to be subordinated to others. Today he is in collusion with the Yuezhi people inside and outside. When the time is right, he will definitely They will raise troops to usurp the throne."

Lin Xueman was taken aback when she heard the words, wouldn't there be another war?

"Today, I just came here to fulfill my vows at the Dragon King Temple. I happened to meet Madam. We just chatted for a while! Madam, take care, and I will bid you farewell!" Hua Yuanwai finished in one breath.He made a salute to her and strode towards the carriage.

"Careful outsiders!" Lin Xueman looked around, seeing that no one was paying attention to them, so she lifted her skirt, went up the seawall, walked towards the village, and returned home.There was no one in the room, so she carefully took out the brocade box.Putting it in the hidden compartment on the wall, I still feel flustered in my heart. If it is really said by the flower staff, and there is a war, wouldn't it be that I will not live a stable life....

There were bursts of laughter from the old house, as if many people were chatting there.

Lin Xueman walked out of the house, just about to go to the old house to bring the child over, but saw Xu Yuanqi and Su Yunniang coming slowly from the small wooden door.

"Mrs. Xiao, are you safe?" Su Yunniang's eyes lit up when she saw her, and she said softly, "Ma'am has not changed at all, she is still so radiant!"

"Miss Su is really good at talking, I've gained a lot of weight!" Lin Xueman looked at the two of them, and said with a smile, "When did you come over, please come to the room!"

The three entered the house.

Xu Yuanqi and Su Yuniang leaned on the edge of the kang and sat down, Lin Xueman was busy making tea for them.

"Ma'am, don't be busy, let's just sit down and leave!" Xu Yuanqi said.

"Don't worry, Miss Su is here for the first time, so she has to eat before leaving!" Lin Xueman replied in the kitchen, "In two days, Mrs. Xiao will be back, and then we will go to the town to get together again. I didn't have a chance to thank you properly."

She brewed tea and brought it to the two of them.

"Master Xiao must have come back to pick up his wife and go to the capital?" Su Yuniang asked.

"Yes!" Lin Xueman replied.

"Madam Xiao, you don't have to be so polite." Seeing her rummaging through boxes and boxes to get dried fruits and snacks, Xu Yuanqi said again, "We are here to say goodbye to Madam."

"Farewell? Master Xu is going to work in Yuzhou?" Lin Xueman put down his snacks and asked.

"At the order of my parents, go back to my hometown to get married." Xu Yuanqi picked up the teacup, looked at the tea leaves floating inside, and smiled faintly.

When Su Yunniang heard this, she sat there with a shy face.

"Then congratulations to both of you!" Lin Xueman looked at the two with crooked eyebrows, thinking of Xiao Yun, her heart felt gloomy again, and after a while, it was still not her.

"When we come back, I will invite Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao to have a wedding wine!" Su Yunniang smiled. She looked at Lin Xueman and then at Xu Yuanqi. Although they both had smiles on their faces, one was very natural and calm, and the other One seemed to have a lot of helplessness, and she couldn't help but understand a little bit...

Xu Yuanqi just held the tea and didn't say anything.

The three of them were silent for a moment.

"Madam, we have one more thing to tell Madam!" Su Yunniang turned her head to look at Lin Xueman, saw that she was looking at her, and said, "Madam's oxytocin medicine on the day of delivery was actually a prescription from the palace. The folks can't make it like this. The prescription with traces looks like an oxytocin, but in fact it has the effect of an abortifacient, and I only found out about it when I inadvertently visited a doctor who used to be an imperial physician in the palace."

"Since it is a recipe from the palace, it must have been brought by His Highness." Xu Yuanqi looked at Lin Xueman and said in a low voice, "I dare not say that this is His Highness's unintentional mistake, but you must not have the intention of harming others. Heart is indispensable."

The two obviously came for this matter.

It turned out to be Ma Haoxuan!

Lin Xueman only felt chills down his spine when he heard the words, why did he do this?

At this time, there was the sound of a carriage in the alley, and someone entered the courtyard of the old house, saying that they would come to pick up Mrs. Liu home.

When Xu Yuanqi and Su Yuniang heard that someone was coming, they hurriedly got up and said goodbye.

"It's easy to hide with a sharp spear, but it's hard to guard against a hidden arrow. Mrs. Xiao, be careful in everything." Xu Yuanqi walked out of the door and turned back to warn.

"Thank you, Mrs. Xu, Miss Su, I understand!" Lin Xueman replied in a deep voice, Ma Haoxuan's voice and smile could not help appearing in front of his eyes. Since the two met, they had no grievances. Why did he put their mother and child to death?

After Mrs. Liu's master and servant left, the house seemed to have lost a lot of people, and it suddenly became deserted. Lin Xueman held the child in the old house after eating, and just sat down when she returned to the house, when Yang followed her in.

"Daughter-in-law, is there something on your mind?" Yang took the child, raised her eyes and asked, when she was eating just now, seeing her preoccupied look, she couldn't help but came over and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"It's nothing." Lin Xueman looked at her mother-in-law and smiled faintly, "Maybe it's because I haven't slept well recently."

Holding the child, Yang walked around the room a few times, thought for a while, and said, "If you don't tell me, I know that you are actually worried about Princess Nalan."

Lin Xueman bowed her head and remained silent.

Yang said, sitting next to Lin Xueman, and said meaningfully: "For more than half a month, Mrs. Liu has lived in our house, and I have never had a chance to talk to you about it, daughter-in-law, you married into our Xiao family It's been a year. No matter what happens, I, as a mother-in-law, have never made things difficult for you. Now that you have given birth to a child and become a mother, you can naturally understand the heart of a mother. Although Cheng Yu is not my own , but he was brought up by me alone. In my eyes, he is my own child. I know his temper. So, if you don't agree with him marrying Princess Nalan, he will definitely not marry, isn't it? Do you want to watch him be executed for defying the decree?"

"Mother, don't worry, I know what I should do, how can I have the heart to let Cheng Yu resist the decree and execute him?" Lin Xueman looked at the child, and tears suddenly appeared in her eyes. Since Xiao Chengyu came back the day she gave birth, the two of them only mentioned it once. As for Princess Nalan's matter, Xiao Chengyu only said that he would take care of it, let her sit in confinement with peace of mind, don't think about other things, she has been deceiving herself all the time, maybe this matter will pass silently...

This matter has not actually passed, because it has not yet begun....

"What do you want to do?" Yang looked at her and asked again, "If you say you want to leave Chengyu, then pretend that I never said these words. As long as the two of you are together, your status is nothing. Even if you are not a regular wife, then this child is Cheng Yu's eldest son, and we women are all valued by their mother, so take this as an example, Cheng Yu will definitely treat you well in the future."

"Right now, not only do you have to accept this matter yourself, but you also have to persuade Cheng Yu to agree to this marriage. In this way, everyone will be happy. If not, then tell me, what should we do about this matter?" Seeing her silence, Yang continued Persuade.

If you wait for the imperial decree to come down, it will be too late!

"I'll leave to fulfill him." Lin Xueman said slowly.

"You?" Yang was momentarily at a loss for words, why is this daughter-in-law so stubborn!

The door opened silently, and Xiao Chengyu walked in suddenly, bringing in a gust of cold wind, and he looked dusty.

"Cheng Yu is back! Have you eaten?" Yang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly got up and asked.

"Eat it!" Xiao Chengyu replied.

"I'm back!" Seeing him coming back, Lin Xueman got up calmly, took the cloak he had taken off, put it away, and fetched water for him to wash his face.

Seeing that the child in her arms had fallen asleep, Yang put him on the bed, covered him with a quilt, and walked out quietly.

Xiao Chengyu washed his face, changed his clothes, added some charcoal to the brazier, sat by the bed, looked at the child, got up and walked to Lin Xueman, looked down at her, and said in a deep voice: "Lin Xueman, I have never I said that I wanted you to be a concubine, but you said you wanted to leave me! Do you think that by leaving me, you are fulfilling me? Don’t tell me you just run away when things happen?” Obviously, he heard the conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!

"I'm not escaping, but solving problems!" Lin Xueman smiled at him sadly, "Because I can't think of a better way!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets , your support is my biggest motivation.)
