Side hall, inner room.
After repeatedly diagnosing You's pulse through the silk handkerchief, the old doctor stood up and congratulated: "Congratulations, grandma, you have a happy pulse."
As soon as the doctor said these words, all the maids and women in the room were shocked.
Even Youshi was like this. She quietly retracted her hand, the bitter look on her face receded a little, and asked softly: "Doctor Zhang made a wrong diagnosis. I just feel that I am not feeling well recently. How could it be a happy pulse?"
The doctor replied: "Back to grandma, I have confirmed it repeatedly. Grandma's pulse is smooth, ups and downs fluently, and feels like falling jade balls. It is indeed a happy pulse."
Dare I ask grandma, have you ever felt dizzy, weak, or depressed lately? "
Youshi nodded.
The doctor smiled and said: "That's right. According to the villain, the eldest grandma should be almost a month old. Moreover, the eldest grandma has been working hard for many days and lacks physical conditioning. The two collided with each other, so it is like this.
The villain then gave the eldest grandmother some prescriptions to take care of her body. The eldest grandma followed the prescriptions and worked less, and got more rest on weekdays, so she would be fine. "
You didn't listen much to Lang Zhong's other words. She only noticed the time Lang Zhong said.
It’s been nearly a month…
At that time, wasn't it the time when she and Jia Lian were having a heated fight in Tianxiang Tower!
I already believed the doctor's words in my heart.
As a pampered woman, she has feelings for her body.
If she hadn't made some guesses, she wouldn't have made a special trip to ask a doctor to take a look at it in such a busy situation last night.
In fact, she had noticed something was wrong a few days ago.
The reason why I didn't ask the doctor to take a look at it was because I didn't dare.
She couldn't believe that she could still be pregnant, let alone let Jia Zhen know that she was pregnant!
But now that Jia Zhen is dead, she must determine as soon as possible whether she has thought too much. If you think too much, it will be fine.
If not, she would have to plan carefully.
After seeing the doctor off, you looked at several confidant maids and mothers-in-law who came forward to congratulate you. She said: "Nowadays, things are very busy at home, and the gentlemen are all discussing important matters in front, so I am pregnant. Please leave it to you for the time being." Just a few people know about it, don’t spread it outside yet.”
After saying this, You didn't explain much to them. When Yindie was the only one left, she whispered: "Go and take a look in front and see what Second Master Lian is doing.
If you have time, tell me that I have thought of new clues that may be related to the uncle's death, and ask him to come over and talk about it. "
Yindie nodded secretly and glanced up at Youshi.
As a person from the Ningguo Mansion, and as a personal maid of the You family, others may not know, but Yindie has other guesses in his mind.
Grandma has been married to Ningguo Mansion for so many years and has never been pregnant. How could she suddenly become pregnant? Moreover, Uncle Zhen has only had one son, Uncle Xiao Rong, in the past twenty years. Maybe Uncle Zhen would no longer be able to have children.
From Yindie's perspective, as long as she was not too stupid, she would be aware of the problems.
But when she realized that Gui was aware of it, she didn't dare to ask and quickly obeyed.
After a while, she came back and replied: "People outside said that the father-in-law from the palace just came and summoned the second master Lian into the palace."
"Why were you summoned to the palace again?" Youshi became a little worried.
Naturally, she hasn't forgotten the incident with the Queen Mother and Princess.
"I asked, but they didn't know."
"Okay, I understand. You let people watch from the outside, and then come back to me when he comes back."
…
In Daming Palace, Jia Lian knelt down to plead guilty.
As expected, the affairs of Ningguo Mansion reached the ears of Emperor Ningkang, and made Emperor Ningkang very dissatisfied.
"This is the family of the founding minister of the Wei Dynasty, the Jia Mansion of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes! It turns out that the high nobles and generous salaries in the imperial court have raised these shameless, unfaithful and unfilial things!"
Hearing Emperor Ningkang's scolding, Jia Lian felt innocent.
It stands to reason that although the incident in Ningguo Mansion is a scandal, the capital is so big that it is not surprising that some such ridiculous things are happening. As the emperor, Emperor Ningkang does not need to be so angry.
Could it be that Sang scolded Huai and was angry that I was not his son-in-law?
Emperor Ning Kang cursed a few times, but seeing that Jia Lian was acting the same throughout the whole process and did not defend himself, he gradually started to feel bored.
"I have already listened to Weng Ziqin's full report on what happened last night.
Jia Zhen rebelled against human ethics, was shameless and immoral, and her death was not a pity.
As for Jia Rong, since the evidence is conclusive, there is no need to investigate further.
Please withdraw the officers and soldiers from Ningrong Street to me as soon as possible. I asked you to command the Military and Horse Division because I want you to take good care of Xicheng, not to provide convenience to your Jia family. "
After hearing the emperor's reprimand, Jia Lian had something to say.
"Your Majesty, I am not mobilizing the manpower of the Army and Horses Department for personal gain and perverting the law.
In the glorious capital, at the feet of the emperor, such a fate happened. If we don't use the power of thunder to find out the case and arrest the murderer, wouldn't it be detrimental to your majesty's sanctity and the majesty of the imperial court?
I am dedicated to serving the public good, so I did this.
In addition, I always feel that this eucalyptus still needs..."
"enough!"
Before Jia Lian finished speaking, Emperor Ning Kang's face suddenly turned cold and he said angrily: "You still think your Jia family has not been embarrassed enough?!"
tomato
Jia Lian's neck shrank.
"Go out and ask around. Is there any other mansion in the capital that is as famous as your Jia family?
"Those who crawl on ashes will crawl on ashes, and those who raise uncles will raise uncles." Even I feel blushing for you after hearing this.
You guys, on the other hand, don't take it seriously at all, and now you've even caused such a thing as a son killing his father!
And you, Jia Lian, as my personally appointed General Zhenyuan and the fourth-ranking official of the imperial court, you can't even discipline a woman well, and you allow her to do evil in the capital, and this has even spread to the ears of the Queen Mother.
Why, do you think that you can despise the national law and the Queen Mother because of your meager achievements at the border?
Or do you think that relying on the merits of your ancestors, I really can't do anything to your Jia family? "
The emperor is also a human being and has many normal human reactions.
Although it was the Empress Dowager's intention to let Jia Lian divorce his wife and marry another, Jia Lian was actually willing to offend the Empress Dowager rather than marry his daughter, which inevitably made him a little dissatisfied with Jia Lian!
Jia Lian seemed a little ignorant of praise.
But this matter itself was indeed something the Queen Mother did inappropriately, so he did not express his position before.
All the dissatisfaction burst out together today.
Facing the increasingly angry Emperor Ning Kang, Jia Lian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is serious. The wealth of my family depends entirely on your Majesty's blessings and gifts. Since your Majesty can give it, you can naturally take it back at any time."
Even the humble minister dare not argue with the things His Majesty said.
But I ask your Majesty to believe that from now on, whether it is Rongguo Mansion or Ningguo Mansion, I will manage and train with care, and will never let any bad news about Jia's character pass into your Majesty's ears again, making him angry. . "
When the emperor is angry, it is useless to argue. It is true to say something nice to calm him down.
Moreover, from Emperor Ningkang's words, Jia Lian was keenly aware of Emperor Ningkang's serious dissatisfaction with their Jia family.
If we don't express our stance at this time, admit our mistakes and ask for forgiveness, are we really waiting for the emperor to issue an order to remove the nobles and confiscate their homes?
If the imperial court is compared to a gang, then the emperor is the boss, and their Jia family is equivalent to the right-hand man who carries the boss out in a hail of bullets and helps him secure his territory.
As long as there is no problem with loyalty and you admit your mistakes properly, the boss will usually not do anything to his good brothers.
After all, the boss also needs to show mercy and let the other younger brothers see that he is an old man.
Although Jia Lian didn't care whether Ning Guofu would be expelled, and he didn't know whether Emperor Ning Kang had this intention, it would be better if he could not be expelled.
At least a double-noble sect would have a more resounding reputation.
Sure enough, seeing that Jia Lian not only admitted his mistake with a good attitude, but also gave a guarantee, Emperor Ning Kang could not say anything more.
After a pause, he returned to his usual tone and said, "I have told Weng Ziqin to get married as soon as possible.
If this continues, it will not be a good thing for your Jia family or the imperial court.
As for Jia Rong, since he committed a heinous crime, he should be severely punished according to law. Don't even think about protecting each other. If you dare to try to exonerate Jia Rong, I will not forgive you lightly. "
The emperor had spoken, and the matter had been concluded. Jia Lian had a look on his face that he dared not disobey, but he was completely relieved in his heart.
"Besides, the Queen Mother's affairs..."
Emperor Ning Kang finally mentioned this matter that had to be mentioned.
Seeing that Jia Lian seemed to be embarrassed when he heard about the Queen Mother, he snorted: "This matter was originally caused by the Queen Mother's preference for Zhaoyang and her indulgence in her willfulness.
You don’t have to act like that. Since you don’t want to, why don’t you still think that I will force you?
I don’t even look at your home..."
I don't care about your family's moral character. I'm worried that my daughter will be wronged if she gets married, but you've got it right.
Emperor Ning Kang decisively took back such words that were not in line with the emperor's majesty.
Indeed, if Emperor Ning Kang had a can-do attitude towards this matter before, today he is indeed opposed to it.
It is shameful to seize someone's husband, let alone in this stall where Jia's reputation is extremely bad.
At this time, the royal family also forced the princess to the Jia family. Doesn't it seem that the royal family is particularly disqualified?
"The Queen Mother, I will intercede on your behalf.
You don't have to worry too much. I think the Queen Mother won't embarrass you too much because she saved your life. You just have to keep yourself safe from now on, and don't let the Queen Mother get any leverage.
As for your official position..."
When Emperor Ning Kang said this, he deliberately left his mouth blank.
Jia Lian hurriedly took it and said, "With your Majesty's words, I feel relieved.
As for Wei Chen's official position, Wei Chen really deserves it, and it is not unjust at all to be demoted.
I would also like to express my gratitude to Your Majesty for your trust and permission to make meritorious deeds. From now on, Wei Chen will work harder for His Majesty, perform well, and live up to His Majesty's love for Wei Chen! "
"Okay. Nothing happens, just step back."
Although Emperor Ning Kang had no feelings for flatterers, he was very happy that Jia Lian could appreciate his "good intentions".
So the anger disappeared from his face, and he waved his hand very coldly and drove Jia Lian out of the hall.
