Shao family has a daughter

Chapter 126
Xianhui asked: "Don't worry, you will add a few more little brothers later."

"Just add it." Gao Chen didn't take it seriously, and glanced at her stomach lightly, so what if it was added?Maybe not as big as his own son.What's more, I don't know if it's a boy or a girl, and I can't say whether I will raise it or not. Even if a little brother really grows up, it doesn't matter if there is an extra piece of land.

It's better than being stared at by my father all day long, for decades.Now that the father has fresh fun, he will naturally pay less attention to himself, and if he has an heir, his mind will be diverted.

"Your Majesty." Seeing him glance at her belly, Xianhui remained silent, and automatically understood that Gao Chen was in a hurry to have a son, and complained to herself, "Now you don't have any heirs under your knees, are you in a hurry?"

"No." Gao Chen stepped forward and put his arms around her, "I'm not in a hurry now, you and I are young, and we are together every day, so it's easy to conceive a child." Gently stroking her belly, hoping to conceive this time , I also hope that the snake venom will not affect the fetus, and everything will go smoothly.

"Let's go for a walk in the garden." Xian Hui didn't want to continue talking nonsense, she didn't know she was pregnant, she just felt that it would be useless to talk about it, if she really wanted to have a child, she had to show her face at night.It's rare that Gao Chen is free at the moment, so it's good to go for a walk, talk to each other, have a heart-to-heart chat, and cultivate anger and feelings.

"Okay." Gao Chen agreed, "Just take a walk in the back garden of Fengyi Palace."

Along the way, Xianhui felt that he was absent-minded.

Is this... something wrong?Still worried about your child's problems?Relief or dissatisfaction with your delayed infertility?Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little depressed.

She lost and said, "Forget it, let's go back."

"Fool." Gao Chen hugged her with a smile, and comforted her, "Don't think wildly." Afraid that her thoughts would hurt her body, and even affect the fetus in her womb, so she interrupted: "Are you feeling better today?"

"That's it." Xianhui said lazily, "Why do you ask this?"

Gao Chen pulled her into his arms, stroked her lightly, leaned into her ear and said, "If you feel better and don't feel uncomfortable, let's take care of the urgent things and then stop worrying."

"Bah!" Xian Hui blushed, "What are you talking about..."

"Your Majesty." Li Deqing shouted from the corridor, "I have something important to report."

Gao Chen was a little disappointed, but Xianhui was pregnant and couldn't make out, so he was just teasing her.Immediately let her sit down by herself, went out and asked, "What's the matter?"

Li Deqing whispered: "Miss Zhou went to find Princess Huaisi."

"So what?" Gao Chen didn't think badly about his sister-in-law, and after finishing speaking, he realized that Li Deqing had a strange expression, and then remembered that he was the one who made people stare at Zhou Qiao.Could it be that Zhou Qiao was instigated by his second sister-in-law, Princess Huai Si?It seems... there is no reason.

Wait, did the second sister-in-law blame Xianhui for Lin Xiuyan's matter?But Lin Xiuyan ruined her innocence and wanted to rely on her. What does this have to do with Xianhui?Even if Lin Xiuyan died later, he died in the lake because he saved his second sister-in-law, and it had nothing to do with Xianhui.

Or, is the second sister-in-law angry with herself?Angry at myself for not accepting Lin Xiuyan as my concubine?But if it was for a distant niece, it would be too outrageous to find Lu Jian and provoke Xian Hui's relationship with himself.

Gao Chen pondered for a while, "Well... I will think of a way to let Princess Huaisi enter the palace later. As soon as she leaves, I will arrest the maid beside her and send them to the Department of Punishment for interrogation."

Although I think that kind of thinking is too absurd, even if there is only a slight possibility, I will not let it go.

"Yes." Li Deqing took the order and went.

"What's the matter?" Xianhui didn't know why, so she came over and asked, "Is there something difficult to decide in front of the court? If you are busy, go and do it, don't accompany me."

"Well, something happened." Gao Chen didn't elaborate, he didn't want to worry her who was pregnant, so he just said: "I'll go back as soon as I go."

Xianhui didn't know why, so he seemed a little restless recently.It seems that because there is no Naxiu girl and he has no children, Gao Chen is under too much pressure.I couldn't help rubbing my stomach, hoping that as he said, now that we are often together, we can get pregnant sooner and solve this serious problem sooner.

Also, by the way, why is there no more on Lu Jian's matter?Just forgot to ask him.

Gao Chen went to Yici Palace.

With a solemn face, he said to the Empress Dowager Zhou: "I would like to ask the empress to pass on a message that the palace has fresh tribute satin, and let the elder sister and the second sister-in-law come to the palace."

Empress Dowager Zhou was puzzled when she heard this, "What's the matter? Use this palace as a raft." Turning her head, she ordered people first, "I got a few good horses here, and passed them on to Wuyang, Xiaoqiao and the two concubines."

"Yes." The palace man hurriedly responded.

Gao Chen said displeasedly: "There is no need to pass on Prince Gong and Concubine Gong."

"You are so confused." The Empress Dowager Zhou said: "The rewards from the palace are naturally rewarded. How can you just let your sister-in-law not reward you? Wouldn't it be superfluous to spread the word? What is it that makes you so angry? , I even forgot about this stubble."

Gao Chen let out a sigh of relief, "Wait until the people from the Punishment Department ask for evidence."

Empress Dowager Zhou's expression changed immediately, "Department of Punishment?" Then she remained silent for a long while without speaking.

About half an hour later, a group of distinguished royal family members arrived.

The Empress Dowager Zhou had a pleasant face, and she was chatting casually, and everyone really rewarded a few horses.Princess Wuyang is smart and close to her mother, so she can naturally see that entering the palace today is not as simple as appreciating the material.So he smiled and asked, "Queen, do you have anything to say?"

The Queen Mother Zhou opened her mouth, "No, it's just Juju..."

"The Emperor is here!"

Gao Chen suddenly came in from the outside, and glanced at Prince Gong and Princess Gong, "Sister-in-law, I just got a good Songxi pen and ink in the room. It just so happens that you are here, so go and take it back to elder brother." Then he told Li Deqing, " Accompany Prince Gong to fetch ink."

Princess Gong was startled when she heard the words.

This is……?Want to send yourself away?But Qingzhi couldn't ask more questions, stood up and said with a smile: "Yes, thank you for the gift from the emperor."

As soon as she left, Gao Chen asked the palace servants to retreat and closed the door.Then he looked at Zhou Qiao, and said in a deep voice, "Say what you said in Prince Huaisi's mansion again."

Zhou Qiao's eyes widened, "Say... what?"

"Whatever you said to Princess Huaisi, just say it again." Gao Chen said with a frosty expression.

Both Zhou Qiao and Princess Huaisi changed their faces, but they had different thoughts.

Princess Huaisi was horrified. Hearing the emperor's tone, it turned out that she already knew what she and Zhou Qiao had said?What's the meaning?Could it be that there is his eyeliner in the palace?She couldn't figure it out.

Even more puzzled, why did the emperor see Xianhui and Lu Jian together, meeting in private, but there was still no movement?Isn't there even the slightest bit of jealousy?It's unbelievable.

On the other side, Zhou Qiao was still hesitating.

Princess Wuyang couldn't hold back anymore, she scolded: "What trouble did you get into again? Tell me quickly!"

"That's all." Gao Chen waved his hand, "It's okay if Xiaoqiao doesn't say anything." He called Li Deqing, and escorted the two maids beside Princess Huaisi, "Tell me, what did Xiaoqiao say to Princess Huaisi. "

Both of them had pale faces and terrified eyes, obviously frightened by the people from the Punishment Department.

As soon as he knelt down, one of them kowtowed again and again, "Your maidservant said, and your maidservant said everything." He said as if pouring beans into a bamboo tube: "The servantservant is serving the tea for the concubine, and she is usually waiting at the door. Miss Zhou came to see the concubine today. He said that she has taken care of the matter of the Xilin hunting ground, so that the concubine and empress can rest assured. The slaves are outside the door, intermittently, only hearing these things, so I don’t know what’s going on.”

Gao Chen waved his hand and asked people to take the two maids down.

Zhou Qiao didn't know about it yet, thinking that the emperor was only angry because the queen was bitten by a snake, and didn't know about Lu Jian, so he immediately said: "Uncle! Why are you making such a fuss? That's right, I listened to the second aunt. Then I thought of going to catch the fire fox. But, who knew that the fourth aunt would encounter a snake? I can’t blame the second aunt for this matter, I don’t want to make everyone unhappy, so I didn’t say it.”

On the contrary, she was dissatisfied, "For this reason, the emperor arrested the second aunt's maid for interrogation, which is too much."

"Elder Sister." Gao Chen looked at Princess Wuyang, "You take Xiao Qiao out first."

"Fourth Uncle, Your Majesty!" Zhou Qiao was still shouting, "Are you really going to get angry about this? It's not Second Aunt's fault, how can you be so angry..."

"Shut up!" Princess Wuyang stepped forward and slapped her daughter on the back, "If you don't shut up, someone will sew your mouth shut!" I knew in my heart that it would make my little brother so angry The matter of interrogating the second sister-in-law's maid is by no means a trivial matter, and it will not be as simple as the daughter said.

This stupid girl, I'm afraid she didn't know that she was used as a gunman.

The eldest princess Wuyang couldn't help but talk about it, swearing at Zhou Qiao.

"Second sister-in-law." Gao Chen asked, "Why?" He looked at his sister-in-law like lightning, "Why did you bring Lu Jian to the capital? Why did you instigate Xiao Qiao to make Xian Hui go to the forest to meet Lu Jian ? There must be a reason for you to do this."

The Empress Dowager Zhou's face changed drastically when she heard the words, "Lu Jian? What capital? What kind of meeting? What's going on?"

Princess Huai Si laughed instead, "It seems that the emperor has convincing evidence. Hehe, you bullied me as a widow and tricked everyone around me into interrogation. Are you... worthy of your dead brother?"

"Don't talk about the second brother!" Gao Chen said angrily: "It is precisely because you are a widow for the second brother that the Gao family has always respected and respected you, and I have always respected you as a sister-in-law. I'm sorry for you, let alone her, it's all for the sake of your second sister-in-law. But what about you? You even used Xiaoqiao as a weapon, but she still trusts you so much, ask yourself who you are worthy of?!"

"Who am I sorry for? The emperor said." Princess Huaisi said bitterly: "What kind of second sister-in-law, what respect! I married into your family as a widow, and I have never spent a day with Gao Xi, nor have I met him He, just like that, has been a widow for more than ten years, exhausting his youth."

She asked, "Do you know how bitter my heart is?"

"No, you don't know." Princess Huaisi chuckled, "You think that as long as you feed me and dress me, you are respecting me as a widow. Forget it, let's not talk about it, who made my life miserable? However, Xiuyan is innocent!" Looking at Gao Chen with flaming eyes, "You have always abandoned her and slandered her, saying that she ruined her innocence and haunted you! You ruined her life! You ruined her too! lost my only relative!"

Gao Chen said decisively: "I said a long time ago that I have never done anything wrong with Lin Xiuyan."

"Forget it." Princess Huaisi sighed: "If you don't admit it, I can't help it. If you take ten thousand steps back, Xiuyan really depends on you. For the sake of my widowed sister-in-law, you can see I only have such a family member, let her be a concubine, and give her a place to eat and drink, so what? If you don't want to, you have to force her to be a layman."

Gao Chen sneered, "If this kind of shameless woman is not beaten to death, she is already showing face to the second sister-in-law."

"You still want her to die?" Princess Huaisi trembled with anger, "That's right!" She was emotional, "If not, how could Xiuyan have been by my side? How could she have slipped and fell into the water? If she stayed Being a concubine in your house, I'm afraid I'll even have a child." The more angry he said, he blurted out: "At that time, I will be able to adopt a son!"

"So..." Gao Chen continued, "It was the second sister-in-law who instigated Lin Xiuyan to seduce me? Even if I don't agree, she still wants to destroy her innocence and entangle me, right? Even if she was rejected by me in the end, I'd rather be a layman and stay in Prince Qing's mansion for life and death."

Princess Huaisi was startled by a slip of the tongue, her face paled, and a complex look flashed across her eyes.

Gao Chen didn't expect to wipe it deeper and deeper, instead he uncovered some unknown inside information back then, and the more he thought about it, the clearer his thinking became, "How did Lin Xiuyan die later? He fell into the water? I remember that at that time, it was the time when the Supreme Emperor wanted to When you asked me to go to the fiefdom, you deliberately let Lin Xiuyan fall into the water and die, just to remind my father of the death of my second brother back then, so I should be taboo!"

Princess Huaisi's face became even paler, like a piece of paper.

The Empress Dowager Zhou became angrier the more she listened, and scolded: "Mrs. Lin! You are so presumptuous!"

"Now..." Gao Chen sneered, "You see that I have ascended the throne and Lin Xiuyan is dead, and you have no chance to adopt an heir you are satisfied with, so you come here to make Zhenhui and Xianhui unhappy, yes wrong?!"

With a pale face, Princess Huaisi said miserably: "You guys ruined everything about me, I... I did it, it's fair." She suddenly raised her head and smiled, "Gao Chen, don't forget that your second brother was How did he die? If it wasn't for saving you, how could he have died young, and how could I have been a widow?" He gritted his teeth and said, "All of this is because of you!"

My whole life was ruined by my uncle.

"Enough!" The Queen Mother Zhou interrupted: "Mr. Lin, you are in a daze! The second son..." Speaking of the death of his second son, he naturally felt uncomfortable, "It was just an accident when he fell into the water. , I can't...do nothing to my brother!" Turning to look at Princess Huaisi, "The Gao family has always treated you well and tolerated you, is this how you repay the Gao family?!"

Princess Huai Si murmured: "It ruined my life, and it's not bad..."

"What do you mean by ruining your life?" The Queen Mother Zhou said angrily: "Since you married into the Gao family, you have never treated you badly, and only made up for you even more. Isn't it true? Besides, if you didn't want to If you marry into Gao's family, you don't have to marry, no one is forcing you to marry." He asked loudly: "Could it be that if you don't marry, Prince Qing's mansion can kill you?"

Princess Wise sneered and remained silent.

None of them will understand their own suffering, their own despair.

Princess Huaisi stood up slowly, and said with a smile: "I am a woman, I can't go far, you can do whatever you want, come back to the palace and tell me." She chuckled lightly, with a bit of pleasure, "As long as the emperor is not afraid If you are ridiculed by people all over the world, saying that you can't tolerate a widowed wife, then deal with it as you like."

"Lin!" The Queen Mother Zhou said angrily, "Get out."

Princess Wise left without looking back.

The Empress Dowager Zhou was angry for a while, and then said: "How are you going to deal with this matter?" Some helpless, people can't say that the widow is forced to leave, "After all, she is the widow of your second brother, and there are some things that cannot be said. You have to slow down..."

"No need." Gao Chen glanced at Princess Huaisi, "Second sister-in-law is weak, and she will go back to Prince Qing's mansion to take care of herself."

"You want to send her away?" The Empress Dowager Zhou said urgently, "This will make others gossip."

"Okay, there is a lot of meat." Gao Chen didn't care, and said lightly: "I don't feel at ease staying in the capital, and I will let my second sister-in-law recuperate in Prince Qing's mansion from now on, and send her a few proper maids. That's it." Then the voice froze, "If she wasn't my sister-in-law, if she didn't care about the dead second brother, she would never have been punished so lightly!"

The Empress Dowager Zhou gave her youngest son a complicated look.

He was planning for Xianhui, and he would rather be accused of not being able to tolerate his sister-in-law than cause disaster.

In the afternoon, Xianhui learned of the imperial edict of Princess Huaisi's return to Jiangdu.

She was originally a quick-witted woman, after thinking about it, she couldn't help asking when Gao Chen came over, "Is it true that Lu Jian's coming to the capital has something to do with Princess Huai Si?"

"It's all over." Gao Chen didn't want her to think about it and hurt her body, so he comforted her, "Don't worry about it, I'll take care of everything outside, so you can rest at ease." Then he said: "Over there, Lu Jian, I told him that it is not appropriate to stay in the capital or in Jiang. Therefore, I directly gave him an errand to serve as the county magistrate in a county in Liaozhou. From now on, he will be the parent officer of a county, and he is the largest. They won't be held hostage."

Xian Hui was originally worried and uneasy, but now she is speechless.

"What?" Gao Chen intentionally unraveled the knot in each other's hearts, and joked: "Reluctantly? Do you want to meet again?"

"Bah!" Xian Hui glared at her, "You've become more and more dishonest recently."

Gao Chen said with a smile, "You can do whatever you like." Only those who are happy can take care of their health and children.
