Zhang Qiaoer, who was so preoccupied at the moment, didn't notice that the carriage didn't go long after it left the imperial city. It took almost no time to burn a stick of incense before he stopped. The few accompanying eunuchs outside the carriage, after the carriage stopped, said respectfully to the carriage: "Madam, we have arrived at Mr. Liu's residence. Please get off the carriage with the two young ladies and the young master, and follow the servants into the mansion. .”
The words of the eunuch outside the car made Zhang Qiaoer wake up. When she got off the carriage, she realized that this was not her and Liu Chang's house at all. Seeing Zhang Qiaoer's bewildered look, one of the leading eunuchs in charge bowed and said: "Madam, this is the house that the Crown Prince gifted Mr. Liu. The Crown Prince said that the original mansion of your mansion was too far away from the Tai Chi Palace. It would be inconvenient for him to summon Mr. Liu if he has something to do."
"This house in Daningfang is where he temporarily lives for you and Mr. Liu. The prince said that when he returns to the capital, Mr. Liu will definitely accompany him back to the capital. At that time, he will reward Mr. Liu A better mansion. As for this mansion, I’m sorry to you and Mr. Liu for the time being. Your servants had moved all the belongings from your mansion in the outer city here yesterday.”
"Madam, please rest assured. When the servants went to help you move yesterday, they took the maid with them. The maid helped pack and pack the belongings of the lady and the young master, and the servants only helped carry them. The prince said, If any of the servants touches Madam's things without authorization, the hand with the hand will break that hand. Therefore, Madam, please rest assured that the servants have not touched the Madam, Young Master, and Young Lady's belongings."
After saying that, the eunuch gently pushed open the courtyard door. The six servants inside were already standing respectfully outside the door. When Zhang Qiaoer, who was still a little overwhelmed, walked into the house with her two children, she realized that although the three-entry courtyard was simple, it was much more spacious than the house where she originally lived. The two children finally no longer have to live in the same room.
I just remembered that Huang Qiong had twice ordered the eunuch not to touch his clothes. If the eunuch touched her clothes, who would take care of them? Zhang Qiaoer felt sweet in her heart, but also a little worried. She didn't expect that the prince was so possessive. Even his own clothes are not allowed to be touched by other men, not even eunuchs. What if you let him know yourself?
While Zhang Qiaoer was thinking wildly, he just passively followed the eunuch and took a general look at the yard. The eunuch didn't know what the woman was thinking at this time. Anxious to complete the tasks assigned by the prince and return to the palace, he brought four servant girls and two maids to Zhang Qiaoer and said, "These six servant girls are the chefs selected by the prince himself for your mansion." mother,"
"There are also servants for sweeping, and maids to serve the lady, young lady, and young master. Mr. Liu is not in the house, so the prince did not choose a man to avoid suspicion. The prince means that these maids and servants will be used first. Wait until he comes back. After Beijing, the Crown Prince is arranging for more people to serve. The Crown Prince has orally said that Mr. Liu and his wife are the people he values, and no one is allowed to neglect them."
Speaking of this, the eunuch who seemed not to know the true relationship between the Crown Prince and Madam Liu said with some emotion: "Madam, the Crown Prince really didn't say anything to Madam Liu. The last time I went to your mansion, I saw you. It is not a house where officials live. After returning, I ordered my servants to search among the buildings of the Ministry of Works. I finally found the house and sent someone to repair it for more than half a month. "
"The items inside are also neatly arranged. Madam and Mr. Liu only need to bring clothes. In addition to the firewood and grain brought from your mansion, the prince also gave an extra gift of fine white charcoal. Two thousand kilograms, one hundred kilograms of pork and mutton, one hundred kilograms each of fine japonica rice and white flour. There are two hundred kilograms of various dried vegetables and winter vegetables. It is said that Mr. Liu and his wife will have a good year."
After the general introduction, the eunuch bowed and went back to repeat the order, leaving only Zhang Qiaoer who was thoughtful. At this time, Zhang Qiaoer could only smile bitterly when he saw the six servants in front of him. She guessed Huang Qiong's intention, but she couldn't explain it clearly. This place is only a few steps away from Tai Chi Palace. The prince wanted to steal something, so he had to leave the palace.
But now that the uncooked rice has become cooked rice, Zhang Qiaoer also knew that he could not go back, so he had no choice but to accept it. Now that the cook is here, Zhang Qiaoer naturally doesn't have to cook for the children. But at night, after taking care of the two children and going to bed, when he was cleaning himself, Zhang Qiaoer covered his face when he saw the hickeys all over his body and the teeth marks in the abundant areas.
Two lines of clear tears flowed down involuntarily. She didn't know why things turned out like this. How could I, who had always been quiet and elegant, become so crazy? Even more so with that man, he came up with so many tricks and even let him use them. What he said was that the front was old and it was not his turn the first time. Use new ones, unused ones, give him some compensation and other nonsense.
I never thought that I could still use it there, but I just trusted him and actually gave it to him. Even though it hurt so much, she actually endured it and let him do whatever he wanted. In this month, I have been exhausted by him every day. He was in a mood, even in broad daylight. But I have never rejected him, let alone thought of rejecting him.
I am obviously not the kind of person who is greedy for pleasure, and I am also known as a virtuous and virtuous person in my husband's family. But why did it become like this? What is the difference between it and those women who courted Qin and Muchu? I don't even know what will happen to the family once her husband finds out about this. Zhang Qiaoer, who was confused in her heart, let her tears drip into the water little by little, but she still couldn't forget the month with Huang Qiong.
In fact, she still had something she hadn't told Huang Qiong. Her monthly letter this month is already several days late. My monthly reports have always been accurate. Except when I was pregnant with my child, I have never been late or left early. Now that Yue Xin has not arrived, if nothing goes wrong, it is very likely that she will have his child in her belly. But although there might be a dark knot in the bead, she really didn't dare to let Huang Qiong know about it.
Because she was worried that once Huang Qiong found out. Based on her current understanding of the Lord's character, she might have to find a way to really make him her own. For him, Liu Chang was a rare talent. But if it involves himself, he won't have any scruples.
Just as he said, he can give Liu Chang whatever he wants as compensation. He is the current prince, the future emperor of the Qi Dynasty. Now he is in charge of the government and supervising the country. It can be said that he exercises power over nine states and defeats the princes. It can be said that the power of life and death in the entire world is in his hands, and he can do anything he promised Liu Chang. It is not difficult to realize Liu Chang's dream of becoming prime minister in advance.
But Zhang Qiao'er knew that if her husband didn't agree to give up on her, she would die. He also made his husband and his family disappear silently forever in order to possess himself and the baby in his belly. He didn't know about it and probably wouldn't have done it. But if he knew that he was pregnant, he might not really be able to do such a thing. But she knows her husband's character very well.
A husband is definitely not the kind of person who is willing to sell his wife for the sake of glory and wealth. If the prince really wants to exchange glory and wealth for himself, the only result will be rejection. Even if he had to let go for the sake of his family, he would resign with his family and leave, never setting foot in the capital again. My husband's character would not allow him to accept such humiliation.
It was precisely because of this worry that he realized that Yue Xin never came. After hesitating for a long time, she finally chose to conceal the matter. Even in the clouds and rain last night, she once hoped to get rid of this child. It's not that she doesn't feel sorry for the child, but that the child really can't be kept, and she has to ignore the consequences of this matter. Even though Mrs. Dong had already figured out a way to hide it for herself.
After knowing that her monthly letter had not come, Mrs. Dong gave herself something. It can help her husband regain his glory once or twice, which is enough to help himself and hide the matter as much as possible. But Zhang Qiaoer still believed that this child really couldn't be kept. In fact, she could fool him even without the help of Mrs. Dong. My husband has a very rough temper when it comes to things like this.
In the years since I got married, I can’t even remember the time of each month in my monthly letters. And although the husband is unable to survive due to health reasons, he is not useless at all. Therefore, she was still confident that she had deceived her husband. But in the future, the children will not be able to see it when they are young. When a child grows up, his appearance will follow that of his parents. This child is not his husband's at all.
How can you imagine it with your husband? When the time comes, how should I explain it? Is there any parent in this world who doesn’t love their children? But when I think about the consequences, my family cannot afford it. She is not only the mother of this child, but also the mother of her husband's two biological children. Helpless, she could only come up with this solution. But I didn't expect this child to be so tenacious.
No matter how crazy the two of them were tossing last night and this morning, there was no reaction at all. Even now, I don't feel any discomfort. When I had this child, I started having morning sickness from the moment I found out I was pregnant with my first two children. Just walking a little faster will cause some pain in the lower abdomen. They are completely different, and they even seem to be two people.
I was pregnant, but there was no reaction at all. If Yuexin hadn't come, as a mother of two children, she wouldn't have known that she was pregnant. I remembered that in this month, several times after I woke up, I kept thinking about pushing that person away. Even if he begged him or served him with his mouth, he still stubbornly left the last one to himself.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qiaoer gently stroked her belly, which was still flat at this time, and sighed in her heart, maybe this is God's will. Yesterday was so crazy, but this child didn't do anything at all. Could it be that even God wanted to allow him to keep this child? After several hesitations, Zhang Qiaoer finally put down the piece of musk used for abortion that she had been holding for a long time.
Returning to the bedroom, she took out the pill Dong Qianhong gave her. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally decided to do what she said. If this pill can really help her husband regain his former glory in a short period of time, he can hide the matter even just once. Since it was God's will to keep this child, he had no choice but to do so, hoping that Liu Chang would not discover anything.
Originally, Zhang Qiaoer thought that Liu Chang would not come back until the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. Unexpectedly, he had already rushed back at the age of twenty-seven. Looking at her husband who was tired but still full of energy, Zhang Qiaoer felt ashamed and happy at the same time. She has been married to her husband for so many years, especially since her husband became a Jinshi. This is the first time she has seen her husband. She is so energetic and excited.
