Return of Jin Yi

Chapter 74 I Can't Help You
After hearing Meng Jing's words, the King of Nanjun frowned subconsciously, and looked straight at him, "Your Highness wants the child in Ah Ci's womb?"

Meng Jing nodded solemnly.

Seeing this, the king of Nanjun frowned more tightly, paused for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "But the child belongs to Ah Ci, even if it is my grandson in name, I can't be the master of it. So please forgive me, my lord. I'm busy, I can't help you!"

"I don't want you to hand over the child to me." Meng Jing shook her head after hearing what he said, and then explained, "I just hope that you and the princess can help me persuade Dr. Chu— —The King Lu Xiaojun and her abilities are not enough to protect the child well, so handing it over to this king will be more beneficial to the child's safety and future growth."

King Nanjun: "..."

Although the regent's words were very reasonable, he still didn't dare to speak to Chu Ci.

As far as she knew, although the daughter-in-law had a cold expression on her face, she was indifferent to everyone.But deep down, he clearly values ​​love more than anyone else.

She conceived in October, and the remaining child was desperately desperate, would she give it away casually?
Think it is impossible.

Maybe, because of this, she will bear a grudge against the person who persuaded her.

When the time comes to get discouraged, if they start arguing with the wind, then their family will be completely ruined...

Thinking in this way, he sighed deeply, how could he dare to agree to Meng Jing's request, and directly refused, "The prince can truthfully tell the truth about the assassination of Quan Zi and A Ci. The whole Nanjun palace is very grateful to you. But the child Regarding the matter, it is still the same sentence, please forgive me for being incompetent and unable to help the prince."

"Your kindness, I and Quanzi can only repay it in the future!"

Meng Jing listened to Nanjun King push Tang so much, and couldn't help but take a deep look at him, "Nanjun Wang just decided so, don't think about it anymore?"

The king of Nanjun refused with a serious face, and did not change his original intention, "My lord, forgive me, but it is better for her to decide on Aci's child."

Meng Jing had nothing to say, "If that's the case, let's pretend that the king has never been here tonight." After speaking, he glanced at the king of Nanjun, got up and walked out.

Nanjun Wang watched him leave.

Afterwards, Steward Lu came in from the outside, walked up to him softly, and asked worriedly, "Your Majesty, I don't know why the Regent Government is looking for you?"

"It's nothing." Nanjun Wang shook his head.

After a short pause, he asked again, "Hasn't Feng'er returned yet?"

Steward Lu shook his head, "Not yet."

King Nanjun clenched his fists, his eyes suddenly became dark, "Call the guards, and come with me to Hat Alley!"

"Yes, the king of the county!" Steward Lu agreed and stepped back.

A quarter of an hour later, the king of Nanjun led his men on his horse and was about to head east of the city.

Suddenly there was a sound of a carriage rattling in the distance.

His body froze, and he tried his best to look in the direction of the sound...

"Jun Wang, it seems to be the carriage of our mansion!" Steward Lu also stretched his neck to look at it, and once he was sure, he immediately said to Nan Jun Wang.

The king of Nanjun also saw clearly the character "Lu" engraved on the front of the carriage. He nodded, straightened his body, and waited patiently.

Before and after the carriage approached, King Nanjun got off his horse and walked towards the leading carriage.

"Father!" King Lu Xiaojun opened the curtain, got out of the carriage, and called softly.

King Nanjun saw that he was clean and he didn't look like he was in trouble, so he nodded, stepped forward to help him get out of the car on the ladder, and asked in a deep voice, "Why did you delay for so long?"

King Lu Xiaojun thought of the bad things that happened in Hat Alley, and then smiled coolly, comforting Nanjun Wangdao, "It's nothing serious, I've brought him back."

King Nanjun saw that King Lu Xiaojun didn't want to say more, so he didn't continue to ask. Instead, he looked at a carriage behind and said, "Did you bring all five?"

King Lu Xiaojun said "Yes", "A lot of them! But in order to prevent them from resisting, I have already ordered the dark guards to knock them out!"

Hearing what King Lu Xiaojun said, King Nanjun sighed silently.

Then he looked sideways at the guard behind him and ordered, "Go, help the Second Master's family into the mansion!"

"Yes, the king of the county!" The headed guard agreed, and then walked forward with his subordinates, opened the curtain of the second carriage, got in, brought all five people out, and helped them to the county king's mansion go.

And King Nanjun and King Lu Xiaojun looked at each other after watching the five people being brought in, and walked towards the mansion together...

Deer Yard.

Chu Ci and Princess Nanjun were waiting anxiously.

Bi Xin walked in from the outside, and after going forward to salute, she said excitedly, "Prince Princess, Concubine Shizi, there is news that the Prince of the County has brought the Prince of the Little County back... Second Master, Second Madam, they have also been brought back! "

"Really?" Princess Nanjun stood up abruptly from the couch, looked at Bi Xin, and asked nervously, "What about Feng'er, is he alright? Is he injured?"

Bi Xin shook her head, "No, the little prince is fine, his clothes are clean, just like when he went out, and he doesn't even have a wrinkle on his body."

"That's good, that's good!" Princess Nanjun felt relieved after hearing Bi Xin say that.

On the side, Chu Ci's original heart also slowly fell back into his stomach.

She lightly pursed her lips, walked towards Princess Nanjun, stopped by her side, looked at Bixin and said, "Father and mother haven't eaten anything all day, go to the big kitchen and let Mama Li prepare something light, okay Reduced vegetarian dishes, bring them here later!"

"Yes, Shizifei!" Bi Xin glanced at Nanjun Wangfei's haggard appearance, replied in a low voice, and walked out again.

And Princess Nanjun only realized after Chu Ci mentioned it. Not only she and Nanjun Wang, but also Chu Ci and Lu Xiaojun Wang hadn't had any water for a whole day.

Thinking like this, she looked at Chu Ci's dry lips and her protruding belly with a guilty face, and said, "It's the mother's negligence. She even forgot that you were pregnant with the child... It's all the mother's fault!"

As she said that, she looked at Lianzi beside her, and said in a hoarse voice, "You also go to the big kitchen and ask Mama Li to cook a cup of wolfberry, yam, and black-bone chicken soup for the imperial concubine, and then cook a few things that the imperial concubine likes. smaller."

Lianzi responded, and stepped back quickly.

Chu Ci glanced at Princess Nanjun wearily, and said, "Thank you, mother, for your concern."

Nanjun Wangfei shook her head, helped her to sit on the couch next to her, and said, "Is the child all right these few days? Didn't you bother me?"

Chu Ci shook his head with a smile, then raised his hand to caress his lower abdomen, rubbed it lightly, and said softly, "The child is very good and well-behaved. He has never troubled me since she was pregnant."

"After that, he must be a worry-free child." Nanjun Wangfei nodded with a smile, paused, and then mentioned Lu Xiaojun Wang's childhood, and said helplessly, "It's not like Feng'er, who has been shopping since he was a child... When I was in the stomach, I was tormented a lot, especially in the first three months, the morning sickness was so severe that I couldn’t eat anything... It was still in June, boring and annoying, and your father was also tossed at that time What a shame, he sent me the lychees from the south, the snow lotus from the Tianshan Mountains in the north, the pomegranates and rose apples from the barbarians, but I couldn’t eat a single bite... If it wasn’t for the old lady watching, persuading, and taking care of me Stay with me and accompany me through the most difficult time, I am afraid that Feng'er will not have a chance to survive to be born, and I will not have both children, and I will still live now..."

Chu Ci heard what Nanjun Wangfei said.

My heart suddenly picked up.

Although she has never experienced morning sickness, she is a doctor. When she was an intern in the hospital of her grandfather and grandpa, she often saw pregnant women who were tortured by morning sickness.

In some serious cases, they even need to be hospitalized for a long time, unable to eat, and can only maintain themselves by infusion of nutrient solution.

But that was modern times, with advanced medical skills, and less suffering for pregnant women.

In ancient times, if you couldn't eat anything, it would take less than a month, at most ten days and a half months, and the child would be unable to keep it.

Therefore, it is actually very lucky that Princess Nanjun was able to give birth to Lu Yifeng under such a difficult environment.

She was thinking like this, and on the other side, Nanjun Wangfei continued, "At that time, it was also because of this reason that Feng'er was taken to Luyou Courtyard to be raised when he was born... It was also because of gratitude to the old lady, so in this life, I regard her as my own mother, there is never a quarrel in words, and there is not a single violation in deeds..."

……

Perhaps it was also for this reason that she was able to accept her remarried daughter-in-law without any grievances?
Chu Ci felt something, and his gaze drifted involuntarily towards the bed. After a long time, he whispered, "Yes, grandma is indeed the best elder in the world...it is my good fortune to be her granddaughter-in-law!"

Nanjun Wangfei also looked at the old lady, her eyes gradually became moist, but she didn't speak again.

It seemed that everything was in silence, and it seemed that thousands of words could not express her gratitude to the old lady.

When King Nanjun and King Lu Xiaojun came back, they happened to bump into their tears.

"What's wrong with you?" Nanjun Wang asked first.

Princess Nanjun held Chu Ci's hand and quickly shook her head, "It's nothing, it's nothing."

"Are you all right?" King Lu Xiaojun walked towards Chu Ci, took her into his arms, looked into her reddish eyes and asked,

Chu Ci shook his head, "It's really all right. Don't you believe what mother said?"

King Lu Xiaojun snorted, "Of course I believe what my mother said."

Chu Ci glanced at him, stopped continuing the topic, but asked, "Second Uncle and the others, did you bring them back?"

King Lu Xiaojun nodded, "Bring it back, and lock it in the East Wing of Mingde Courtyard."

"That's good."

Seeing her relieved, King Lu Xiaojun tickled her palm lightly, and asked again, "Then when are you going to hypnotize them?"

Chu Ci listened to his question, looked up at the sky outside, thought for a while, and said, "It's time for Yin."

At that time, it is the time when people are most sleepy and their will is weakest, and it is also the time when it is easiest to hypnotize.

King Lu Xiaojun let out a "hmm".

Not long after, Bixin came in from the outside, Fushen said, "Junwang, Junwangfei, Xiaojunwang, Shizifei, dinner is ready, how many of you want to move to the flower hall?"

The king of Nanjun heard the words and looked at the concubine of Nanjun, "I haven't eaten for a day, you can take Feng'er and Ah Ci to eat something first, I will stay here with mother."

Princess Nanjun took care of her injured son and pregnant daughter-in-law.I had no choice but to nod, and led the two of them towards the flower hall.

In the flower hall, the dinner has been set.

But because none of them sat down, the dishes were covered with carved covers.

Bi Xin and Lian Zi waited for their masters to be seated before stepping forward to lift the hood and said respectfully, "The Princess of the County, the King of the Little County, and the Princess of the World are invited to have a meal."

Princess Nanjun nodded, and then started to serve Chu Ci with a bowl of soup, "A Ci, be careful!"

Chu Ci took it and thanked him quickly.

Princess Nanjun smiled, and then began to eat.

Because of the old lady's serious illness, the dishes on the table, except Chuci's chicken soup, which is considered meaty, are all light vegetarian dishes.

Fortunately, the chef of the county prince's mansion is good at cooking.

King Lu Xiaojun ate, but did not frown.

After finishing the meal, she went to the dormitory to take a look at the old lady, and the princess of Nanjun urged King Lu Xiaojun to go back with Chuci!

King Lu Xiaojun was concerned about the child in Chu Ci's womb, after all, he didn't say much, agreed, and carefully helped her walk outside.

Out of Luyouyuan.

Under the light moonlight, the two walked slowly towards Dianhan Courtyard.

"You went to Hat Alley this afternoon, didn't anything happen?" Chu Ci suddenly stopped when he was approaching the end of Chaoshou corridor, looking at King Lu Xiaojun and asked.

King Lu Xiaojun followed her and stopped, then looked at her and blinked, and said carelessly, "It's just to pick up someone, what can happen?"

"Then you return the life-saving purse I gave you!" Chu Ci raised his chin slightly, and stretched out a tender white hand towards her.

When King Lu Xiaojun heard this, his face froze, and then he said with a cheeky smile, "Lady, between us husband and wife, let's just have one purse and one purse! If you don't pay back what you say, it's too extravagant!" To grab her waist.

Chu Ci suddenly took a step back, keeping a short distance from him, and said solemnly, "You used that purse, right? Something big must have happened in Hat Alley, right?"

King Lu Xiaojun fell silent, pursing his thin lips tightly.

Chu Ci sighed, his tone was a little guilty, but also a little sad, and said, "I'm the one who got you in trouble after all."

Seeing her like this, King Lu Xiaojun suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled her in front of him forcefully. He held her shoulders tightly with both hands, looked her in the eyes, and said word by word, "Chu Xiaoci, our husband and wife are one. , I forbid you to say that!"

"But the capital is really staring at it, and the ghost is lingering. As long as the child in my womb is still there, they will not let me go, and they won't let you go!" Chu Ci said, under the moonlight, his eyes were already clear to the naked eye. The speed I saw turned red.

Seeing her like this, King Lu Xiaojun felt extremely distressed.He raised his hand and stroked her face lightly, his tone was soft, but he said with deep affection——

"But I am willing to do all of this. Chu Xiaoci, I am willing to bear anything for you. I don't feel bitter, and I don't feel wronged. I just want to be with you... Do you understand?"

"But I don't want to implicate you, and I don't want you to be hurt a little because of me. Lu Yifeng, I can't imagine what I would do if something happened to you today! I really can't imagine..."

"Chu Xiaoci, am I okay? Don't cry..." As he spoke, he wiped away the crystals overflowing from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, and then softly coaxed her, "Don't cry, let's send grandma away now." , and then talk about something else, okay?"

Chu Ci shook his head, his voice was desperate and stern, "Lu Yifeng, you don't know how scared I am! I'm afraid that something will happen to you, I'm afraid that those people will deal with you frantically, and I'm even more afraid that they will attack the Nanjun Palace... You don't know at all How scared I am! I'm not afraid of my own death, but I'm only afraid of others dying because of me. I am doomed to die in exile and die alone..."

"I shouldn't have married you, I shouldn't..."

"But you are already the wife I am marrying!" King Lu Xiaojun became anxious when he heard that Chu Ci regretted it.With red eyes, he yelled at Chu Ci completely disregarding his manners, "You are my wife and my man. As I said, unless I die, unless someone else steps over my dead body, who will be in this life?" Don't even try to take you away from me!"

After he finished speaking, without giving Chu Ci any chance to defend himself, he lowered his head, bit her lip, and kissed her desperately.

Chu Ci groaned, trying to push him away and continue to explain to him.

But King Lu Xiaojun didn't give her this chance, he kissed her until she couldn't breathe, and then let her go slowly.

He held her face, looked into her eyes close at hand, panted, "Chu Xiaoci, I love you, I can't leave you... If I have to leave you, I will die!"

Chu Ci stared into his eyes without blinking.

Through his bright but stubborn eyes, she saw his determination and oath.

What he said was true, leaving her, he would really die.

"Chu Xiaoci, don't leave me, please? Don't leave me..." Seeing her staring at her intently, his tone eased, and he begged again.

Seeing his appearance, Chu Ci really had nothing to do with him, so he nodded slightly as a promise.

Seeing that she finally compromised, King Lu Xiaojun was so happy that he almost jumped up.

He hugged her into his arms again, tightly fit, hugged her tightly, and pressed her ear, saying word by word, "Chu Xiaoci, you are so kind!"

Chu Ci hugged him back, and was about to repay him "You are so annoying", when he took it, he felt a piece of wet warmth.

"Lu Yifeng, your wound has burst open?" She froze, and immediately pushed him away to question.

Hearing her questioning, King Lu Xiaojun was embarrassed, "Well... Maybe it was because I hugged you too hard just now, so I broke away!"

"Come back with me!" Chu Ci didn't bother to talk to him any more, grabbed his hand and strode towards Dian Han Yuan.

King Lu Xiaojun was led away by her like this, the wound on his back was obviously painful, but he didn't seem to feel it.

With a foolish satisfied smile on his face.

Finally arrived at Dianhanyuan.

Chu Ci directly took him into the pharmacy, and then took off his outer clothes.

Then the bright lights in the pharmacy, she watched clearly... The blood on the man's back oozes out of the bandage, covering his entire back.

It was clear that more than one wound had ruptured.

Seeing this scene, she was really hurt and depressed.

While carefully tearing off all the bandages on his body, helping him clean and change dressings, he looked at his side face and cursed, "Lu Yifeng, do you really think you are made of iron? There are so many The arrow wound has burst! Don’t you know it hurts?! Do you want to lose too much blood and die!”

King Lu Xiaojun said in embarrassment, "Good lady, I really didn't do it on purpose for my husband! I promise my husband that I will be more careful next time and never let the wound burst open, okay?"

"Hmph!" Chu Ci snorted coldly, but did not answer.

She carefully cleaned his wound with a cotton kerchief dipped in spirits.

During this period, even though he knew that he was trembling with pain, he just refused to let it go.

Instead, it rubbed more on both sides.

After all the wounds were bandaged again, his face was covered with sweat, as if he had just washed his face and hadn't dried it.

"Do you dare next time?!" She crossed her arms and looked at him and asked.As soon as my heart softened, so did my voice.

King Lu Xiaojun bit his lip, looked up at her cautiously, and said softly, "Don't dare!"

"I hope you do what you say!"

"My husband must do what he says!"

"Hmph, let me put my ugly words first...Your wife, I have never been a generous woman. If you, Lu Yifeng, dare to break faith with me again, I will definitely repay you tenfold!"

The implication is that as long as Lu Xiaojun dares to break his promise again.

Then all the things she promised him in the past will be void.

Hearing what she said, Lu Yifeng's pale face immediately wrinkled, looking at her with an expression of "you're being foolish", and said, "My lady, you are bullying!"

Chu Ci smiled coldly, "It's hard to raise a girl and a villain, haven't you heard of it?"

"I heard it!"

"Since you've heard it, be honest! Otherwise, next time you hold my arms and legs and cry, I won't necessarily soften my heart!"

"..." Lu Yifeng pursed his lips tightly, and said aggrievedly, "My husband knows, and I will keep my promises to my wife in the future, and I will do what I say."

"Okay, I'll trust you one last time! I'm still busy tomorrow, so go to bed early, and I won't call you at the beginning of tomorrow's Yinshi. You take good care of your wounds, and I'll go there with Si'er!"

Lu Yifeng let out a "hmm", then tugged at Chu Ci's sleeve eagerly, "That lady will sleep with me!"

Chu Ci gave him a disgusted look, "I don't sleep very honestly, I'm afraid I'll overwhelm you, so let's sleep separately."

King Lu Xiaojun thought about it, and nodded in agreement, "My lady is right, you are not very honest when you sleep, you always want to get into my husband's arms, and you like to put your legs on your husband's waist. Today is different from the past, we..."

"Lu Yifeng, shut up!" Chu Ci heard him speak the truth, and couldn't bear it anymore, gritted his teeth, and growled at him.

King Lu Xiaojun's ears trembled when he yelled at him, then he covered his mouth with a narrow smile, looked at her and asked, "Madam, do you have any other orders? If not, I would like to give you my husband's advice first." Rest."
