After Qiqin left, Luo Ran told Chun Yu: "Let Qingchuan go check and see where Fu Shiheng went in the early morning."
Chunyu: "Yes."
Luo Ran said again: "Tell him to be careful."
Chunyu: "I understand."
It wasn't until dinner that news came from the east courtyard: Luo Ruxue was pregnant.
The person who came to report the news was a nun from Fang's yard.
Luo Ran asked: "How are the prince's wife and the young master doing?"
Mammy smiled with a crumpled face: "To the young lady, yes, yes, all is well. Although the young master was born prematurely, he looks so small and plump. Our duchess and his wife said that he doesn't look like a premature child at all. Woolen cloth!"
Luo Ran nodded and muttered casually: "As long as mother and son are fine, it's fine. They say seven will survive and eight will not, so I'm still worried..."
After saying that, he seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly asked someone to give him money and changed his words.
Grandma took the reward and went back to reply.
Fang asked: "What did you say over there?"
Mammy replied: "As for my wife, it seems that the eldest young lady doesn't know that our prince's wife was pregnant before she came in, and she is still talking about whether she will survive or not."
Mrs. Fang nodded: "Actually, it doesn't matter even if I know. I'm just afraid that the news will have an impact on Mingzhu's marriage."
In the evening, Qingchuan replied and said that Fu Shiheng had gone to meet a person in the morning, and that person seemed to be related to the Liu family. Luo Ran kept it in mind.
-
Regardless of Fang's and Fu Shiheng's attitudes toward Luo Ruxue, the child's bath was a lively event, and almost everyone in the capital received the message.
Luo Ran was also very busy. In the past few days, she had been running back and forth between the Hou Mansion and the Fu Mansion. It was the twelfth lunar month, and the cold wind entered her body. In the end, she couldn't bear it. She fell ill just after the third bath at the Jingguo Duke's Mansion. fall down.
This disease can make someone anxious.
After the morning court, in the royal study, the emperor repeated loudly: "What did you say?"
Fu Jinan's expression remained unchanged as he said, "I want to ask for leave."
The emperor threw away the memorial in his hand, leaned back on the throne, and said, "Tell me, please take a break at this juncture. What are you going to do?"
Fu Jinan seemed to have already thought of an excuse, and said without thinking: "I have been too tired recently and want to rest."
"Nonsense!"
The emperor was so angry that he picked up the book on the dragon case and threw it over.
Fu Jin'an caught it steadily with agility, and the folds were not even scattered, and were placed on the dragon table intact.
The emperor sneered: "Do you know what time it is now? The princes from all over the country have entered the capital, the prince and the third prince are all running out of the palace with their heads sharpened. At this time, you tell me that you are not feeling well? I am not feeling well yet, I I also want to rest, who can I talk to?"
"minister……"
"Shut up! You've been working as an errand at Jinyiwei recently and left immediately. Don't think I don't know. Isn't it just that your wife has caught a cold? Look at your worthless look!"
The emperor glanced at him with disgust.
Fu Jinan stood in the main hall, motionless, with a posture of giving up until the end if he disagreed.
Finally, the emperor really saw that he was angry and waved his hands: "Go away! Get away! Don't be an eyesore in front of me!"
Fu Jinan bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Before leaving, he said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will always pay attention to every move of those people to ensure the safety of the capital."
He raised his head and secretly glanced at the emperor, winked at Li Baolin, and then exited.
The emperor watched the young and upright figure disappear from the door and sighed heavily: "Xiao Linzi, do you think I was wrong in agreeing to his marriage?"
Li Baolin has been serving the emperor since he was a child, so he naturally knows what to say and what not to say. When he heard the emperor ask this question, he smiled and said: "The emperor still feels sorry for Mr. Fu, so he always wants to make up for him. If you talk about Mr. Fu's temper , It really looks like the emperor when he was young."
"When I was young?"
The emperor muttered something.
Suddenly I remembered that woman.
At that time, he was still a prince, the eldest son of the current Queen Mother, and his younger brother was now King Qing. He had been naughty and mischievous since he was a child, so his father placed all his hopes on him.
He hired the best teacher. Even if the other royal brothers grew up and began to compete for the throne, his father never wavered in his status as the crown prince.
He was so high-spirited at that time.
Later, he went to Chen County on an errand for his father and met the woman.
Just like what is often said in storybooks, a charming young man fell in love with a lady at first sight and made a private commitment for life. The young master was afraid that his parents would oppose him, so he promised the girl that he would marry her after convincing his parents.
Unexpectedly, there will be no news of the young master once he leaves. After waiting to no avail, the girl gradually gave up. Just when she was about to follow her family's arrangements to get married, the young master came back with the marriage certificate.
At this time, there was another flood in the south of the Yangtze River, so he had to put her down temporarily and promised to take her to Beijing as soon as the errands were completed.
But before he could pick her up, news came from the capital that his father was critically ill. He rushed back to the capital without stopping, and the two of them missed it again.
By this time, the girl had already discovered that she was pregnant, so she secretly ran away from home and went to Beijing incognito to find her husband.
Before reaching the capital, he was met by the old Duke Jing. Looking at the jade pendant in the woman's hand, he immediately guessed the truth of the matter.
Because of the problem of occupying the team that year, Duke Jing's title was almost lost, so the old Duke secretly hid Xie Nianyi. Later, after discussing with the Liu family and Mr. Luo, the Liu family came forward to protect Duke Jing. Mr. Luo got a third-grade official in exchange, and the old Duke Jing got rid of Xie Nianyi and the child in her belly.
Later, the old Duke Jing asked his son to marry Xie Nianyi to leave a way out for himself. They also found a mother and son from other places to pretend to be.
And Xie Nianyi knew that it was too late when the old Duke Jingguo deceived her. In order to save the child in her belly, she had no choice but to commit herself to marrying Fu Yi. At the same time, she also learned the identity of the man who promised her life.
Being locked up in the inner residence of Duke Jingguo all year round, she could not write to him at all, let alone meet him. Depressed and unhappy, he finally died.
And everyone knew that the emperor later gave up on marrying the queen.
He sent people to Chen County to search for her secretly, but he only knew that she had changed her identity and left, and she could not be found no matter what.
Many years later, while hunting in the Western Mountains, he finally saw a child with eyes similar to that woman's. At a young age, he dared to go into the mountains alone and could catch deer alive, but he was too thin.
Someone was sent to find out his identity. The emperor still remembered what he asked the child at that time: "Do you want to go back with me?"
The six or seven-year-old child was no taller than his thighs, but his eyes were astonishingly bright. He said, "I will stand by your side on my own!"
In a blink of an eye, after so many years, he also married a wife and had two lovely children.
However, as a king, the last thing you should do is be tied down by the love of your children.
Li Baolin looked at the emperor's confused eyes and knew that he was remembering things from the past, and said softly: "Your Majesty, are you worried about Master Hongzhi's approval?"
The emperor came back to his senses, glanced at him, and said: "A mother who respects the world cannot tolerate any flaws."
