good meal

Chapter 213
At the same time, Chu Liangrao also thought of the fight between the snipe and the clam for the fisherman's benefit.

No matter who is the prime minister or the queen who is to blame this time, there is no doubt that the beneficiary is destined to be the emperor.

But it stands to reason that such a foolish thing should not be done by a ruler, so is it really the queen's handwriting?But sooner or later, this country will belong to the crown prince. Why does the queen want to give up the land she has acquired to others?

As for the prime minister, Chu Liangrao didn't know much about it, so he couldn't make any judgments.

Seeing that Chu Liangrao seemed to have thought of something, Zhou's mother asked, "What idea did the princess come up with?"

Chu Liangrao shook his head and said, "It's just that there are too many strange things about this matter, which makes people feel unbelievable."

Zhou's mother, who also thought so, nodded, and at the same time told Chu Liangrao the details she had found out.

Chu Liangrao only listened to the official position mentioned by Zhou's mother, but she still noticed some clues. After thinking about it, she asked, "Did Mom go to the palace to ask?"

After being stunned for a moment, Zhou's mother said, "It's a negligence."

Chu Liangrao said: "Tomorrow you will work harder."

"Yes." After hearing the order, Mother Zhou withdrew.

Chu Liangrao, on the other hand, ordered people to prepare hot soup to take a bath. After soaking in the bath, Chu Liangrao, who was refreshed, felt better. She walked to the desk, picked up a pen and wrote a letter, and pressed it on the table. Send it out at dawn the next day.

For the next few days, Chu Liangrao spent time waiting for the news. Facing the potted plants sent by Princess Yin Hua, she was not interested in taking care of them. Liang Rao still worried Mama Du.

How can she not understand what her own princess is thinking? It has only been a long time since she married, and the county matriarch has gone out. Now that this kind of thing is spreading again, can you not worry?If there is something wrong with the county horse, I'm afraid there will be some bad comments on the princess. After the filial piety period is over, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get married again.

For this reason, the worried mother Du prayed to the sky every day, hoping that Huo Tainan would come back safely.

The entire Huo Mansion seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds, but none of the servants was dissatisfied, and there was not a word of bad rumors about Chu Liangrao.If she was placed in an ordinary person's house, I'm afraid she would have been called Kefu long ago.

Chu Liangrao couldn't help feeling that it took so much effort to make the servants respect him so much.

Feeling Huo Tainan's kindness, Chu Liangrao's thoughts became more and more intense.

Just waiting like this made Chu Liangrao feel very bored, so he listened to Mama Du's advice and took a few servants to worship in the temple.Naturally, the temple I went to this time was not the last time I ran into Xiao Mingyue's humble temple. After burning incense and donating money for sesame oil, Chu Liangrao sincerely knelt down in front of the futon and made a wish.

When she got up, she saw an acquaintance who also had her hair combed. This person was Aunt Lu whom she hadn't seen for a long time.I saw Aunt Lu with a big belly, one hand was supported by a servant, the other was on her waist, and it was extremely difficult for her to present to Chu Liangrao.

Seeing her flushed face, she didn't seem to have suffered any grievances, Chu Liangrao thought to herself: I never thought that Zhang Zixuan would also be a prodigal son, willing to treat the people around him well.

Seeing Chu Liangrao's expression was calm, Aunt Lu said again: "The princess is also here to offer incense?"

"En." Chu Liangrao responded.

Aunt Lu touched her belly and said with a smile on her face, "I don't know what the Princess is asking for?"

Seeing Aunt Lu's flattering smile, Chu Liangrao had no intention of saying hello, and only asked where the host was, saying that he wanted to discuss Buddhism.

Seeing that Chu Liangrao was so shameless, Aunt Lu couldn't help curling her lips, what's the big deal, she's going to be a widow and show her face.But when she saw Chu Liangrao, she also thought of the fact that she almost married into the palace, so she stopped touching her belly.

The servant girl on the side reminded: "Auntie, burn the incense and go back soon, it's getting late."

"What's the matter with the delay?" Aunt Lu glanced at the people beside her and said, "The incense offering is all about sincerity. If you neglect the Buddha, can you bear it?"

Smiling for a while, the servant girl said, "What Auntie said is true."

Touching her belly again, Aunt Lu said: "My mother said, I must have a son in this belly, and I'm here today just to ask the Buddha to open his eyes, so that Xianggong can stand out in this autumn."

"My aunt is really considerate of the second master."

Facing the flattery, Aunt Lu smiled even more cheerfully.

After offering incense, she boarded the carriage and returned home.

On the way, there was a rush of horseshoes, and the driver stopped the car aside, waiting for someone to pass before driving.Aunt Lu was dissatisfied, and asked: "It's fine, what are you doing when you stop, can you hit someone on such a wide road?"

"Auntie, right now you are twins, it's better to be more cautious." said the serving woman.

After hearing this, Aunt Lu had nothing to say, so she had to use a handkerchief to loosen up, as if she wanted to dispel the unhappiness in her heart.Lifting up a corner of the curtain, she said impatiently, "Why don't you leave?"

At this moment, Aunt Lu felt a gust of strong wind sweeping past her eyes, she quickly closed her eyes for fear of getting sand.After the sound of horseshoes passed, she picked up the handkerchief and dipped her tears in her eyes, and said, "Who was the one who passed by, and why was he so reckless?"

The coachman hesitated for a moment, and said: "If you go back to Auntie, the one who just passed by is Princess Ning'an."

Hearing this, Aunt Lu stopped her movements, and couldn't help thinking in her heart, what could make the always prudent princess Ning'an gallop like this? Is it possible... A thought came to her mind, and Aunt Lu urged: "Quick, go home quickly."

"Yes!"

Although the coachman responded quickly, the speed of the car was still not too fast.

Aunt Lu felt impatience, urged her repeatedly, and finally got up to reprimand the coachman.

Unexpectedly, one of them didn't stand firm, and his body was tilted. Fortunately, the maid at the side was clever and hurriedly used her body to make a meat pad, so nothing happened.And the woman in the carriage was frightened for a long time, she managed to regain her composure and asked Aunt Lu if there was anything wrong.

Aunt Lu, who was also startled, shook her head and didn't dare to say any more words of urging. You must know that what is in this stomach is her future protection. Now the news will be spread, but this stomach must be protected.Thinking about it, she sat down properly, but there were bursts of pain in her lower abdomen.

The flustered Aunt Lu tried to stay calm, for fear that the attendants in the carriage would see the clue.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the carriage stopped at the gate of Zhang's house, the maid with a keen sense of smell smelled a fishy smell, while Aunt Lu held her hand tightly with a snowy complexion, and said profusely, "Go ask the midwife! Go quickly!" !"

Hearing this, the mother-in-law hastily pulled back her skirt, only to see the blood under her body flowing down the trouser legs, which looked very creepy.

If this is really giving birth, how could it be like this, the mother-in-law was in a state of turmoil, fearing that she would be hurt, so she went to the madam to pass the letter without saying a word.Knowing that Aunt Lu was not well, Mrs. Zhang was not ambiguous, and soon invited a midwife and a doctor, and sent someone in to send a message to Aunt Lu, saying that she should relax, and sent someone to look for Zhang Zixuan.

Knowing that Zhang Zixuan went out to fool around again, Aunt Lu's complexion turned even paler, and she said through the screen: "Please serve some snacks, after all, this stomach is also your grandson, you don't want your grandson to lose sight of his father at first sight, right? "

These words seemed to accuse Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Zhang sneered in her heart, and said inwardly, "How dare you say that he is my grandson if you are just a bastard?"He doesn't look at how many catties he has, he doesn't care about his stomach, and he still has the face to play tricks here.

Immediately, Mrs. Zhang gave a few words of relief sanctimoniously, and left here by herself.

Zhang Zixuan was originally a concubine, and Aunt Lu was a concubine. At this time, the mistress did not show up, and Mrs. Zhang was only doing verbal work, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.But soon she didn't have the time to think too much, the bursts of severe pain made her almost faint, and in the end she passed out directly.

At this time, Mrs. Zhang was drinking tea slowly, asking the woman who followed Aunt Lu to go online together.

The woman had a sincere face, but her mind was flexible, and said: "My aunt is not careful on weekdays, and she is the same when she goes out today, and she is not honest when she is sitting in the car, and as a result, she made a move and something happened."

"Oh?" Mrs. Zhang put down her tea and said, "Then you should persuade me a little bit. Aunt Lu is young and ignorant, so she doesn't know the seriousness of the consequences. This child has passed through the gate of hell, so don't be careful. But it’s a matter of life.”

Hearing what Mrs. Zhang said was serious, the old woman hurriedly acted aggrieved and said, "The old slave never tried to persuade me, but my aunt didn't listen to anything." After thinking about it, she said, "After seeing the princess, my aunt Then he seemed restless and seemed to have something on his mind."

"Princess?" Mrs. Zhang frowned slightly and asked, "Which princess is it?"

"If you go back to Ma'am, it's Princess Ning'an. Today, when my aunt was offering incense, she met the princess, but something happened, and the princess rode away in a hurry. My aunt saw the princess. The Empress only looks like this." Pushing the responsibility away, the old lady lowered her head and said no more.

Mrs. Zhang was full of twists and turns in her heart, wondering if Aunt Lu knew something?
Seeing that Mrs. Zhang's complexion became more and more unkind, the woman quickly kowtowed and said: "Madam, this old slave really tried to persuade my aunt, but my aunt didn't obey her orders, so this old slave can't do anything about it."

"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of indiscriminate person." Mrs. Zhang said generously, "You also know that as a mother, I often persuade Xuan'er to be obedient, but why has he ever listened to me? "

Hearing this, the mother-in-law felt relieved and said, "Ma'am, I'm sorry."

"Hey, I don't want to talk about worrying or not. Look, it's this time, and Xuan'er doesn't know how to come back and take a look." Mrs. Zhang looked embarrassed, "I don't know if the person sent out has found someone or not." .”
