Chapter 674 Seven-Five-Five: Xiao Yunxi Is Pregnant
In the side room of Wu Mi in the Prince of Wei's Mansion.
Wu Mi was wearing a gorgeous dress, with beautiful eyebrows and a bun like a fairy. Seeing the young man in front of her nod solemnly, Wu Mi breathed a sigh of relief, but soon frowned and said, "The Queen Mother lives alone in the deep palace and has been separated from the Emperor for a long time. Now she is suddenly pregnant. It's easy to hide it now, but how can we hide it after ten months of pregnancy?"
Chen Mo took Wu Mi's jade hand and sat down on a soft couch under the window. He whispered, "I have a way. Let the Queen Mother move out of the palace in a few days on the pretext of going home to visit her parents. After giving birth to a child outside the palace, she will go back. As long as the matter is done secretly, it will not be exposed."
Wu Mi thought about it and felt that this method was feasible.
According to her understanding, the Queen Mother has been living alone in the deep palace and has rarely visited her parents' home. It is not surprising that she will stay for a few months when she returns home to visit her parents.
"What about the child? Since it is your husband's child, can't it take the Liang family name?"
"This is easy. When the Queen Mother gives birth to the child, we can secretly bring the child to the mansion. Mi'er, you can worry about it. I will put it on your knees."
"I have no problem, but can the Queen Mother agree?" Wu Mi's voice was as soft as water.
"Don't worry, I have a way to convince her."
After all, the Queen Mother will return to the palace after giving birth, and if the child is placed in the Prince of Wei's Mansion, it will be in the capital, and it will not be difficult for the Queen Mother to see the child.
It will be easier for him to be affectionate with the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother has no reason to refuse.
"Then I am relieved." In Wu Mi's view, the children of the Chen family naturally cannot be left outside.
"Mi'er, it's getting late, let's rest early." Chen Mo played with Wu Mi's jade hands and said in a low voice.
Wu Mi's eyes were full of water under her curved eyebrows. She said "hmm" softly. They were both old married couples, so they didn't say much. She stood up and helped Chen Mo undress.
Chen Mo treated his wife differently from other women in his heart. He respected her.
He had fewer tricks with her than with other women.
After undressing and getting on the bed, they just had sex in a very ordinary way.
...
The next day.
The sky was bright, and the autumn dewdrops were hanging on the branches and leaves. On the first night in the capital, everyone in the mansion slept well.
Chen Mo had breakfast all night, and then went to the palace to attend the morning court accompanied by Sun Meng and others.
Xiao Yunxi was a little lazy in bed. After Chen Mo left, she came to the hall to have breakfast quietly.
In the hall, almost all the women had left. Only Xia Zhiqing, Xia Zhining, and Yi Shiyan sat together, like a beautiful landscape.
"Nuo'er, don't bully your sister, don't pull your sister's hair." Xia Zhiqing separated Chen Nuo and Chen You.
Although the two children are twins, born from the same belly, they are not "friendly" at all. Chen Nuo, the younger brother, likes to bully the older sister Chen You.
After all, the older sister is only half an hour older.
Chen Nuo raised his chubby face and said in a baby voice: "Mom, why does my sister look different from me? Why doesn't my sister have..."
As soon as these words came out, the three girls in the hall were all blushing.
At this moment, Xia Zhiqing also had some annoyance between her eyebrows and said: "Nuo'er, you are a boy, and your sister is a girl."
This is also her fault.
When bathing the two children, to save trouble, they were put in a wooden basin to wash.
Chen Nuo's pink little face was full of confusion.
He was a little over two years old and had not been educated yet, so there was no difference between men and women.
Yi Shiyan smiled, pinched Chen Nuo's little face, and said, "Nuo'er, when you grow up and get married, you will understand."
"Mom, Youyou is going to get married too." Chen You hugged Xia Zhiqing's calf, innocent and cute.
Xiao Yunxi, who was eating breakfast, wanted to laugh when she heard this, but when she was about to laugh, her throat itched slightly, and then she couldn't help bending over and retching.
Xia Zhiqing and the other two looked over.
Yi Shiyan joked, "Could Yunxi be pregnant?"
As he was talking, Xiao Yunxi, who had just recovered and was about to drink a sip of water, continued to retch.
The smile on Yi Shiyan's face froze: "Could it be that she is really pregnant?"
"Zhi Ning, quickly ask Sister Mi to come and see." As a person who had experienced it, Xia Zhiqing felt that Xiao Yunxi looked a bit like this at the moment, so she asked her sister to call someone.
After the film session, Wu Mi arrived, and Han Anniang, Xiao Ya and other women who were with Wu Mi also came over, obviously wanting to see if Xiao Yunxi was really pregnant.
At present, the only women who had children in the mansion were Wu Mi, Xia Zhiqing and Han Anniang.
Wu Mi felt Xiao Yunxi's pulse.
"Are you pregnant?" Xiao Yunxi couldn't help asking.
"Show me your other hand." Wu Mi let go of Xiao Yunxi's right hand and felt her pulse on her left hand.
After a few breaths, Wu Mi smiled and said, "Sister Yunxi, congratulations, although it's a little weak, I can be sure that it's a happy pulse."
"Wow" Xiao Yunxi raised her hand to cover her mouth to prevent herself from shouting excitedly.
"Congratulations, sister Yunxi is pregnant." Han Anniang, Xia Zhiqing and Xiao Ya congratulated Xiao Yunxi.
"Ahhh"
Xiao Yunxi didn't scream, but Yi Shiyan couldn't help but screamed out loud, she was about to cry.
She didn't break down like this when Han Anniang and Xia Zhiqing had children, after all, they were with Chen Mo before she was.
Wu Mi was the main wife, and she had a child, which was good for the stability of the harem, so she didn't feel jealous.
But now Xiao Yunxi also has one, and she can't stand it anymore.
Xia Zhining is the one who can most empathize with Yi Shiyan's current state of mind.
The joys and sorrows of people are not the same.
Han Aniang also understood Yi Shiyan. Before she had children, she was envious when she saw other women having Chen Mo's children, so she helped Yi Shiyan ask Xiao Yunxi.
Ask her what method she used when she had sex with Chen Mo last time.
As soon as he finished speaking, the women without children in the hall all pricked up their ears, wanting to learn from him.
Originally, Xiao Yunxi had no nerve to talk about this kind of thing, but looking at those expectant eyes, Xiao Yunxi's bright and charming face had a slight blush, and she softly told Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Gan that night The story of beating the horse came out.
Yi Shiyan took the opportunity to inquire about the details.
Xiao Yunxi's cheeks turned red with embarrassment. She had to bear with the great shame to say such things. If she wanted to talk about the details of the same room, she really couldn't speak out and became hesitant.
Yi Shiyan kept asking.
"Xiaolu, okay, it should have nothing to do with this matter." Wu Mi quickly stopped Yi Shiyan's questioning. Asking such a question, isn't it difficult for others to ask? She guessed:
"In my opinion, the reason why Yun Xi can get pregnant is the same as what Miss Nalan said."
She asked Xiao Yunxi how long it had been since she stopped practicing.
"I'm not sure exactly how long it will take, but it will definitely last a year." Xiao Yunxi said.
"One year." Xia Zhining remembered this time.
Xiao Yunxi stroked her belly, a motherly glow appeared on her face. Now that she had a child, she could completely relax.
I'll go see my dad later and tell him the good news.
…
Hanyuan Hall.
After the morning court, Chen Mo discussed matters with Geng Songfu and others here.
He told Geng Songfu that he would leave Beijing in a few days so that Geng Songfu could keep an eye on the court.
At this moment, Guo Ning came over and said, "Student pays homage to King Wei."
He was originally a disciple of King Wei, but now that he was awarded the title of Jinshi, he could legitimately call himself a student in front of Chen Mo.
"Master Guo." Chen Mo bowed his hands to Guo Ning, and then said with a smile: "You are now an editor of the Hanlin Academy, have you got the official uniform?"
Guo Ning nodded, then lowered his head and bowed his hands heavily to Chen Mo: "Your Highness, do you not want to be the editor of the Hanlin Academy?"
Chen Mo narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately frowned: "You think your official position is too low?"
"no."
"Then you want to resign?"
"No."
"Why is that?"
"Xiaoguan wants to go to the north. Like Brother Lin Zhong, I will start from the county magistrate, build the north, restore the people's livelihood in the north, and do my best to open county schools in the north." Guo Ning said.
As soon as these words came out, both Chen Mo and Geng Songfu were shocked.
I just feel that the sunshine outside the palace is not as dazzling as Guo Ning's now.
Guo Ning actually voluntarily gave up the favorable conditions in the capital and wanted to go to the poor and suffering north.
"Are you serious? Do you know what entering the Hanlin Academy means?" Chen Mo said.
"I know, I have already thought about it very clearly. Since the north has to send someone anyway, why can't it be me? Moreover, the words that the prince left to the students at that time benefited the students a lot, and the students felt that if they go You can learn more by going north than staying in the Hanlin Academy. I hope the prince can fulfill the student's wish," Guo Ning said solemnly.
"Okay." Chen Mo stepped forward and patted Guo Ning's shoulder "hardly" and said happily: "If you are ambitious, I think highly of you. What is lacking in the court now is people like you."
Geng Songfu, Zuo Lianglun, and Chen Xiu all looked at Guo Ning with a hint of admiration.
Chen Mo said: "I will grant you my wish. It's up to you to choose where you want to go in the six northern states."
"Youzhou." Guo Ning said.
…
other side.
The emperor's palace.
"The Queen Mother is going home to visit her relatives?" Emperor Yong'an looked at the Queen Mother's personal maid below and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Returning to Your Majesty, the Queen Mother said that she has been in the palace for many years and has never been back. She has not been back even once since the seven years since she declared her death. The last time I saw my father, I saw that his hair on the temples was all white. He was at home. My mother must be older than my father, so the Queen Mother wants to go home and stay for a while,” said the Queen Mother’s personal maid.
In fact, the Queen Mother did not need the consent of Emperor Yong'an for this kind of thing.
The reason why she sent someone to tell her was just to inform Emperor Yong'an.
Emperor Yong'an also understood, he said: "Does the Supreme Emperor know about this?"
"The Queen Mother sent someone over to tell you."
Emperor Yong'an nodded and said: "When does the Queen Mother plan to leave the palace? I haven't greeted her for a long time. Before she leaves the palace, I have to go to Shoukang Palace to say hello."
"No need." The Queen Mother's personal maid said quickly.
Emperor Yong'an: "???"
"The Queen Mother said that she has not recovered from the illness and is afraid of infecting His Majesty's dragon body. This is why the Queen Mother did not come to tell His Majesty in person, but asked her slaves to come over."
"Since I haven't recovered yet, is it convenient to leave the palace and rush on my way? It's not too late to go back when I recover."
"Although she has not recovered, she will not delay her journey. The imperial doctor also said that the Queen Mother is ill and needs to walk more. On the way back, the Queen Mother will also ask the King of Wei to send someone to escort her."
"In this case, I won't persuade you any more. I hope the Queen Mother can come back soon. It's impossible without the Queen Mother in this palace." Emperor Yong'an said.
"This servant will inform the Queen Mother. If Your Majesty has nothing else to do, I will leave first." The Queen Mother's personal maid said.
Emperor Yong'an looked at the palace maid's leaving figure and felt that something was wrong.
"Isn't it true that returning to the Liang family is false, but living in the Palace of Wei Prince is true?" Emperor Yong'an frowned. Then he didn't take the royal family seriously. He was not satisfied with having a private meeting in the harem, and wanted to have fun every night. .
Emperor Yong'an planned to visit Shoukang Palace.
…
After Chen Mo came out of Hanyuan Palace, he rushed to Shoukang Palace immediately and gave the Zhuyan Pill to Liang Ji.
She can eat whenever she wants.
For the safety of her child, Liang Ji still didn't let Chen Mo go any further, but just let him get over his hand addiction.
After staying in Shoukang Palace for a while, Chen Mo came out.
On the way out of the harem, I met Queen Zhao's personal maid.
"King Wei, the queen has invited me," the palace maid said.
Chen Mo just thought that the other party wanted to return his python robe, and followed the palace maid.
And this scene happened to fall into the eyes of Emperor Yong'an.
He naturally recognized that the maid was from the Queen's side.
His face darkened, and for fear of being discovered by Chen Mo, he followed him from a distance until he saw Chen Mo entering the queen's palace, his expression a bit ferocious and terrifying.
When Queen Zhao met Chen Mo, in addition to returning the python robe and expressing her gratitude, she also explained what happened yesterday to Emperor Yong'an, saying that Emperor Yong'an was drunk and told King Wei not to take what he said seriously.
Well, Queen Zhao also knew about Chen Mo's "beating" of Emperor Yong'an yesterday.
"How dare I blame your majesty? Your majesty and empress can understand my painstaking efforts. Even if I die, I will have no regrets." Chen Mo said.
Empress Zhao smiled reluctantly and said immediately: "Your Majesty discussed with me yesterday. Your Majesty feels that your abilities are somewhat lacking and it is difficult for you to take on such a big job. You want to abdicate in favor of someone worthy of this big job. I hope King Wei can recommend someone who can take this big job." Mingjun."
Hearing this, Chen Mo immediately showed a look of horror, saying how could His Majesty say such depressing words, and then said a lot of words of praise for Emperor Yong'an: "Your Majesty is what the people want. I hope your Majesty will persuade your Majesty not to do it again in the future." I have this idea.”
Queen Zhao's expression changed slightly and she was about to say more.
Chen Mo stood up and said coldly: "As your Majesty's queen, I should always advise you, so I will retire first."
After saying that, Chen Mo left the queen's palace.
Naturally, he also discovered Emperor Yong'an who was staring at the Queen's palace not far away.
Chen Mo immediately regarded what Empress Zhao said to him just now as Emperor Yong'an's test of him.
Chen Mo frowned and secretly thought that Emperor Yong'an didn't understand his beating yesterday.
However, he did not expose Emperor Yong'an. He shook his head and left the palace.
