"You know, that little bitch in Nanchu is now in charge, and she's stingy." Zhuo Chunfeng chuckled, and directly passed it on with a stroke of spring and autumn.
Luo Xing knew that the little girl Zhuo Chunfeng was talking about was Xiao Yin, the current Queen Mother of Nanchu.
This woman is also a ruthless character. It is said that she had a relationship with her master Meng Yi. Meng Yi's martial arts were broken and his cultivation level declined because of him.
However, a coup in Southern Chu thirty years ago had something to do with Meng Yi and Xiao Yinyin. At that time, the emperor of Southern Chu had three sons, all of whom were ambitious and had their eyes higher than the sky. However, the king of Chu was a wise king who trusted the virtuous. Yes, the national strength is growing day by day, which is a huge threat to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
So Dazhou formulated a "change the sky" plan. This plan was to send innocent people to Nanchu and secretly fund their development in Nanchu. At that time, Meng Yi was not the only one selected, and Meng Yi was just one of them. The most successful one.
Because he went to Wuying Palace and became close friends with the third prince Xiang Ying who was studying in Wuying Palace at that time. At the same time, he fell in love with Xiao Yinyin. Xiao Yinyin was a very ambitious woman. While she was in love with Meng Yi, she also Secretly hooking up with Xiang Ying, using Meng Yi's feelings for him to help himself and Xiang Ying eliminate dissidents and clear obstacles.
In Meng Yi's view, he could not only gain love, but also complete the tasks assigned to him by Da Zhou, so why not do it?
In the end, Xiang Ying won the battle for the heir, and Xiao Yinyin also became the princess, abandoning him like a worn out shoe.
Meng Yi's identity was exposed, and he was hunted down again in a heartbroken state, almost returning with his life lost.
But after all, Meng Yi made great contributions to the Great Zhou Dynasty, replaced Nanchu with a relatively mediocre king, and interrupted the possibility of Nanchu's resurgence.
But no one expected that the new King of Chu would be short-lived. Less than ten years after he succeeded to the throne, he died. Xiao Yinyin supported his young son to ascend the throne and took charge as regent as the Queen Mother. Even though the King of Chu was now an adult, he was in charge. Empress Dowager Xiao still holds great power, and Emperor Chu is sometimes just a human-shaped stamping machine.
Although Si Chen and Xiao Yinyin hold great power, there are many opponents in Nan Chu. Although Nan Chu has developed well in recent years, it is difficult to achieve the momentum that the old King of Chu did when he was there.
Otherwise, it is hard to say whether there will be a great week like today.
"Come on, Marquis Luo, you have returned triumphantly today, and I would like to pay you my respects!" Yan Fang picked up the wine glass, stood up and said.
When he first went to Sansi Hall, Luo Xing was still a small captain. Now several months have passed, and not only his official position but also his status are above him.
This is also a trance time.
It's really irritating to see this person comparing himself to others.
"Master Yan, you're welcome, please!"
Yan Shaoqing and Wang Miao stood up to toast one after another, and Luo Xing naturally responded one by one, and even clinked glasses with Zhuo Chunfeng several times, which was very harmonious. Luo Xing also told some interesting stories and anecdotes about their time in Yangzhou, pushing the atmosphere of the reception banquet to a climax.
Anyway, the meal was quite harmonious and harmonious.
…
The renovation work of the old house at No. 3 Yongkangfang has begun, so Luo Xing still has to stay in the Hou Mansion when he comes back this time.
However, the renovation and reconstruction of the Hou Mansion is about to begin, and it is estimated that he will have to move again.
The place has been prepared for a long time, No. 1 Yongkangfang.
Meng Yi bought it originally with the intention of using it as a temporary new house for Luo Xing, and then living there with Xue Qingqing and Xue Shangxiang in the future, and he could come over at any time.
Emperor Yongxi gave Luoxing a marquis mansion, so there was no need for a new house, but after buying the house, he had no intention of selling it.
Anyway, No. 1 and No. 3 are next to each other. Remove the courtyard wall, connect them directly, and redesign them.
As for how to do it.
We still have to wait for Luo Xing to come back, but the preliminary demolition project has already begun.
Even if Emperor Yongxi doesn't call him back, he will come back once. The Nine Nether Black Lotus under the old house should be mature, and the lotus seeds must be harvested in time, otherwise the wait will be in vain when the lotus seeds fall into the water.
So, it’s time to move.
It’s just a matter of moving to another place to live, there’s nothing uncomfortable about it.
When I returned to the Hou Mansion, I was about to take a rest when suddenly the housekeeper Zuo Xiaochan came to report that Master Meng Yi was here.
"Master, I plan to go to your house to meet you in a while and have dinner by the way." Luo Xing greeted, "I miss the food cooked by the Seventh Master Niang."
"If you want to eat, you can do it at any time. You don't have to make excuses to eat." Meng Yi entered Luo Xing's study casually.
There is nothing unspeakable between the two of us. Master and apprentice are like father and son, not to mention that Meng Yi and Luo Xing are not ordinary masters and apprentices.
"Have you achieved a breakthrough in your spiritual cultivation?" Meng Yi glanced at him and saw the difference in Luo Xing, and asked in surprise.
"Yes, Master, once you have enlightenment, you will have a breakthrough."
"Comparing people to each other makes people mad. If I had your understanding, I would have broken through the spiritual realm long ago." Meng Yi sighed with emotion.
"Master has accumulated a lot of experience and is a late bloomer..."
"Stop flattering me. Compared with you, what am I worth?" Meng Yi scolded with a smile. His apprentice was better than him, and it was too late for him to be happy.
Hong Ying came in with tea in person: "Mr. Meng, please have some tea."
"Yes." Meng Yi nodded in greeting, "I heard that you took Ning Yurou as your concubine in Yangzhou?"
"Yes, Master."
"Why, don't learn from me as a teacher. I was hurt by love, so I did such a ridiculous thing. Now I feel a little regretful..." Meng Yi said softly.
Luo Xing smiled slightly. Meng Yi really regretted it, but that's not necessarily true. It was true that he couldn't bear it. The gang of wolves and tigers in the family were obsessed with having children.
"Master, it stands to reason that there are no major health problems for you and the eight master wives. It has been so long, so you must be pregnant?"
Meng Yi blushed in embarrassment: "Master, didn't you come here to ask you to take a look? Your third wife has been feeling unwell recently, which is consistent with the symptoms you mentioned before."
"Oh, this is a good thing. Let's go, Master, will my disciple go back and have a look for you now?" Luo Xing said with a smile on his face when he heard this.
"I'm not sure yet. You have to go and diagnose..."
"Lao Zuo, prepare a car!"
"Zuo Xiaochan?" Meng Yi recognized it. The housekeeper of the Hou Mansion was actually Zuo Xiaochan, the first-grade grand master who was once worshiped by Yaowang Valley. It was just that the front and back images were too big. When he came here before, he didn't pay much attention to it. Now Only then did he recognize it.
"Well, he left Yaowang Valley and settled in his disciple's home." Luo Xing chuckled.
You are really capable of being a steward of a first-grade grand master. With so many wealthy and powerful people in Luojing City, how many of them can be a steward of a first-grade grand master?
…
In the Meng Mansion, Hu Sanniang was lying on a soft bed. She didn't know what was wrong with her these days. She had no strength, didn't want to eat, and always felt like vomiting. She even called a doctor, but nothing was wrong with her.
I also suspected that I was pregnant, but all the doctors told me that they couldn't tell and they had to show their belly to be sure.
Now they have no way to determine whether she is pregnant.
The other women in the house are watching. If Hu Sanniang is pregnant, then others should be able to do it. If not, it is their own problem and has nothing to do with Meng Yi.
Therefore, everyone hopes that Hu Sanniang really has something in her belly.
As soon as Luo Xing came back, the women in the mansion forced Meng Yi to go to the Hou Mansion to find Luo Xing. They wanted to confirm immediately whether Hu Sanniang was really pregnant.
"Sanniang, I called Xiaoqi here." As soon as Meng Yi entered Hu Sanniang's yard, he shouted loudly, but he almost didn't tell the public.
"What are you shouting? It's not like we didn't see it..." Rolling his eyes, the head of Mengyi's family suddenly lost face.
Hu Sanniang's house is full of women.
As soon as Luo Xing came in, he quickly bowed to all the ladies. They were all elders, so etiquette was definitely indispensable.
The girls were most concerned about Hu Sanniang's belly, so without further ado, let Luo Xinglai give Hu Sanniang a diagnosis first.
Luo Xing sat down and put his fingers on Hu Sanniang's right wrist. After a moment, he opened his eyes and asked some more questions.
Now it was almost certain that Hu Sanniang was indeed pregnant.
"Congratulations, Master. The Third Master's Wife is indeed blessed, she should be around two months old." Luo Xing stood up and congratulated Meng Yi.
"Really, Xiao Qi, you didn't lie to me?" Hu Sanniang excitedly grabbed Luo Xing and asked after hearing this.
"How dare I talk nonsense about this kind of thing? Third Master, you are really pregnant. However, according to your age, it is best to pay attention to the care of the fetus from now on. It is best not to exercise strenuously and to stop practicing."
"Ugh..." Mu Qing'er, the fifth master's wife who heard this, suddenly covered her mouth and retched, and all the girls looked at her involuntarily.
"I'm fine, I just ate too much at lunch..." Mu Qing'er quickly defended herself.
"Have you eaten too much? Xiaoqi happens to be here, let her know at a glance." The eldest lady Xin Ruyue said without any doubt.
Just like that, Mu Qing'er was pulled over and asked Luo Xing to diagnose her pulse.
After Luo Xing's diagnosis, he frowned slightly: "Fifth Master, when was the last time you had sex with Master?"
Mu Qing'er's cheeks turned red all of a sudden. How could she answer this question in front of so many people.
"Lao Wu, we are all our sisters. Why are you shy? Just say so."
"Yes, Lao Wu, although Xiao Qi is a junior, he can be a doctor. You don't have to hide your illness and avoid medical treatment..."
"About three days, five days ago..." Mu Qing'er said uncertainly.
"When was the last time you came to Tiankui?"
"It's been about twenty days."
"How many days? Is the quantity large?"
"It's only about two days. The amount is very small, much smaller than usual, so I don't care too much." Mu Qing'er also put aside her shyness and said something.
"Fifth Master Niang, although it is not obvious, according to my judgment, the possibility of a happy pulse is very high. If you want to confirm the diagnosis, you can wait for about another month." Luo Xing said solemnly.
"So the fifth sister is also pregnant?"
This method of pregnancy is so miraculous. Of course, Meng Yi had a misunderstanding in the past, otherwise it would be impossible for any of the eight women to be pregnant.
When Mu Qing'er heard this, she was so excited and joyful that she almost carried it away. She loved children very much and had always wanted to have a child of her own. However, after so many years of hard work, her stomach had not moved. The sudden joy came all of a sudden. Caught in my heart.
"Xiao Qi, please help me see if I also have a happy pulse..." Two of them were diagnosed one after another, and the others became excited and stretched out their arms, asking Luo Xing to diagnose their pulse.
Luo Xing naturally could not refuse, so he asked the remaining six mistresses to sit down one by one and let him check their pulse carefully.
"Master Madam, have you not been sleeping well recently?"
"Yes, Xiaoqi, how do you know this? Even your master doesn't know about this?" Xin Ruyue was extremely surprised.
"Are you under great psychological pressure? Do you also want to give Master a child, but are you afraid that you will not be able to conceive because you are too old?"
"Xiao Qi, I do have this idea, but I'm so old, I'm really afraid there's no hope." Xin Ruyue didn't hide it.
"As long as Tiankui comes normally, you will still have the ability to have children. Don't be impatient. It will happen." Luo Xing smiled and comforted, "I will prepare a medicine for you to take, and then do as I say. I promise. Increase the chance of success by 30%.”
"good."
"Second Junior Sister, you, Tian Kui, have always been slow to arrive on time. You have to take care of yourself first, and then prepare for pregnancy. If you have a chance, don't be impatient. I hope you can give me one more junior brother or junior sister!"
"Well, thank you Xiaoqi, you can still talk, unlike your master who talked sweetly when he was chasing me, but now you are mute!"
"Fourth Sister, your vitality was damaged while you were in jail. Gong Han, this is a stubborn disease that is difficult to eradicate. I have a method that can help you, but you can't tell Master..."
When the Fourth Master heard this, her cheeks instantly turned red and she murmured: "Xiao Qi, can this method work?"
"As long as you don't be too cruel and hurt the master's foundation, it doesn't matter. When you get better, it won't be necessary." Luo Xing chuckled and taught the improved Yuanyang Transformation to Xia Houlan, the Fourth Master's wife. The method of cultivation can indeed cure her palace cold when she is in the palace.
"Then can I still have children?"
"Of course it can. Cold in the uterus does not affect fertility, but accidents are prone to occur after pregnancy, so you have to take care of yourself."
"Understood." Xia Houlan happily went away holding a set of prescriptions.
Luo Xing was naturally more concerned about Sixth Master Lin Xiaomei, the manager of his own house. There were some small problems, but they were not big problems. As for why he didn't win the bid, it was also a matter of probability. At least now he knew that Meng Yi was in good health. The problem is, otherwise, it would not have been possible for Hu Sanniang and Fifth Senior Niang Mu Qing'er to become pregnant.
"Sixth Sister, there is nothing wrong with your health, but if you want to prepare for pregnancy, it is best not to drink alcohol and tolerate it for a while."
"I just have a few drinks every day, and that's not okay."
"Alcohol may not affect everyone, but it does. Can you guarantee that it will not affect you?" Luo Xing asked.
"I listen to you, Xiaoqi, I won't drink this wine for the time being." Lin Xiaomei also made up her mind.
This is how women are, looking at each other one by one. Now that Hu Sanniang and Mu Qing'er are both pregnant, how can she be willing to accept it?
"Seventh Sister, you have to control your sweets a little bit and don't eat too much. There's nothing else."
"Eighth Master Niang, please stop all those medicinal foods. Those things have no effect on you, but will be counterproductive. I will teach you some exercises later. If you practice according to this, I guarantee that you will get pregnant!"
"Xiao Qi, why do you prefer Bamei so much and teach her something?"
"If you ladies want to learn, just teach me as a disciple. I'm afraid that you, the martial arts practitioners, won't look down on you." Luo Xing hurriedly wiped the sweat from his forehead and explained.
