"Where is the old witch being imprisoned now?" Luo Tong asked.
Mrs. Xu never came back after being sent away by Luo Tong yesterday.
"I was put in jail yesterday." Wu Zechen's voice was cold, but if you look closely, you can see the sneer in his eyes.
Luo Tong understood clearly: "Is there someone in the prison already contacting that old witch?"
"Yes, those people moved very quickly. They tried to get close to the Xu family last night. I want to see if they can make any noise."
Luo Tong nodded and saw that Wu Zechen was paying close attention to the matter, so he said nothing more.
Wu Zechen, on the other hand, paused and suddenly frowned, his eyes filled with evil energy and his voice was cold.
"There was news from the palace just now that there is a harvest banquet and you must attend it."
The Harvest Festival falls on September 9 every year in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Every year on this day, the palace holds a banquet to celebrate, and this year is no exception.
Luo Tong was stunned: "Do you insist that I attend?"
She had never participated in it before, but she knew about such a celebration.
The reason why she was surprised was because she was already very pregnant, so she didn't need to attend such a banquet. After all, running around at this time could easily cause trouble.
But the palace forced her to attend at this time...
She would not think that this was the Queen Mother's idea. After all, the Queen Mother felt sorry for her pregnancy and stopped asking her to come to the palace to accompany her two months ago. Instead, she sent people to bring things over from time to time.
But thinking about what happened in the past two days, she suddenly became convinced and said with a sarcastic smile: "It was that person and the prince's idea, right?"
Wu Zechen nodded with a cold face, confirming Luo Tong's guess.
Luo Tong smiled lightly, not surprised. She had just knocked down the Xu family, and these two people would definitely not be happy, and they might be holding their breath.
Originally, she was still thinking about when these two would come to her to regain her position, but she didn't expect them to move so quickly.
Since they have made up their mind to attend the Harvest Banquet, something will happen at the banquet. It seems that the Harvest Banquet is destined to not be peaceful.
"Don't leave my side that day. I will ask Lian Ye to follow you. Then I will bring Lindong and Wu Manying with me. I will mention it to the Queen Mother and let you have more people around you." Wu Zechen warned uneasily. road.
Luo Tong smiled and nodded, not making excuses to refuse. After all, he really needed to be more careful in his current situation.
Wu Zechen sighed softly, caressing Luo Tong's belly, his eyes full of love and affection.
Seeing that the originally slim person was now so bloated, he felt indescribable pity in his heart.
Seeing Luo Tong's recent movements becoming more and more slow and clumsy, he felt tired for her. Thinking of the doubts that Master Mu Dai and Mu Jinyu had when they checked Luo Tong's pulse, and now the confusion in Mr. Xu's eyes after asking for pulse every time, he My heart was full of uneasiness.
"Tong'er, can't you still see your pulse clearly?"
Luo Tong naturally knew what Wu Zechen was referring to, and she was helpless when it came to this.
"Yes, it's really strange that I still can't tell whether I'm male or female."
"Not to mention me, even senior brother and Mr. Xu can't see it. This is the most puzzling thing. Others don't have this situation. Why is it so different when it comes to me?"
She was very puzzled. There were many experienced doctors who could diagnose men and women, not to mention the valley owners and elders of Baihua Valley.
Not to mention the accuracy, it can still be judged based on the pulse, but she is so different that no one can see it and there is no way to judge.
She once even doubted whether the child was unhealthy, but there was nothing abnormal about the pulse, but she couldn't tell whether he was male or female.
Seeing the annoyed look on Luo Tong's face, Wu Zechen pecked her gently and said comfortingly: "Forget it, either male or female are our treasures anyway, gender is not important."
He looked at Luo Tong seriously: "After you give birth to this baby, we will no longer have children. This one is enough."
Luo Tong frowned: "But what if it's a daughter? Your throne..."
It's not that she favors sons over daughters, but if she doesn't have a son, who will inherit the Qin Prince's Mansion in the future?
"A daughter is better. A daughter is considerate. It would be better if she were like you." Wu Zechen smiled softly, "As for the position of prince, at most it will be taken back by the court. It is not a big deal."
Luo Tong was really stunned. She didn't expect that Wu Zechen would say it so lightly. Do you want to give up the position of prince if you just say you don't want it?
Just because she can't bear the pain of pregnancy and childbirth anymore?
A warm current surged in his heart, and Luo Tong felt his eyes were a little warm.
"What's going on? Are you crying?" Wu Zechen raised his hand to touch her cheek in a funny voice, his voice as gentle as water.
"I'm not crying! I'm just a little... touched." Luo Tong felt unusually embarrassed.
"For me, you are the most important thing. I don't have to give up the throne." Wu Zechen smiled and kissed the corner of her lips.
Luo Tong was immersed in his gentle gaze, and felt an unprecedented peace in her heart. The annoyance and uneasiness that she had never been able to diagnose before suddenly seemed to no longer bother her.
Raising her hand to cover her belly, her eyes were filled with anticipation.
In the next few days, the West Courtyard was still sealed off. Wu Zechen sent people to dig almost three feet into the West Courtyard. A lot of important information was indeed dug up. Breakthroughs were made every day in the secret investigation, and considerable progress was made.
As for Wu Zhengqing, after leaving that day, he suddenly became more honest. He no longer came to the east courtyard to make trouble, let alone ran outside. He actually stayed in the west courtyard peacefully for several days.
However, he was not idle. Instead, he wandered around the place surrounded by guards all day long, obviously trying to find out information.
But he didn't cause trouble, so the guards couldn't drive him away. They could only let him wander around and never let him go one step further.
As time goes by, the days soon come to the ninth day of September, the harvest festival of the Great Week.
The Harvest Festival banquet was held at noon, so many ministers and their families arrived at the palace early in the morning to chat or play.
Luo Tong got up early today and simply couldn't sleep, so she asked Wu Zechen to take her into the palace. However, she did not join in the fun with others, but went directly to Cining Palace to visit the Queen Mother.
She had not seen the Queen Mother for some time. The Queen Mother helped her punish Xu a few days ago.
When Luo Tong arrived, Wu Fengyan was already here. He came to have breakfast with the Queen Mother early in the morning and never left.
Seeing Luo Tong walking into the hall with Wu Zechen's support with his huge belly, Wu Fengyan couldn't sit still anymore. He immediately stood up and came over to meet Luo Tong, supporting Luo Tong's other side.
