After Mrs. Hou left Ningze's courtyard, she went to Ning Yao's courtyard.
Ning Yao has hired a doctor herself and is asking the doctor to prescribe abortion pills for him.
When Mrs. Hou arrived, the doctor had already prescribed the medicine. After reading the prescription, Mrs. Hou told the doctor, "You will stay in the house for one day. After today, when you walk out of the house, no matter who asks, even if Even the Emperor must remember to say that you are here to protect the eldest lady's fetus, but because the eldest lady injured her body while traveling all the way, the fetus was not saved. Do you understand? Otherwise, if the matter spreads and we have something to do with it, you will also bear the responsibility. "
Although the emperor has demoted Ning Yao and the child in her belly to common people, they are still the blood of the Tian family.
The doctor nodded with a pale face, "Madam, don't worry, even if I die, I won't tell you about this and be buried in a coffin."
Mrs. Hou said warmly: "I believe in you, and Yao'er also believes in you, otherwise I wouldn't have invited you here. Go ahead and let someone take you to a yard to rest first."
The doctor nodded and was led away.
Mrs. Hou asked her maid to boil the medicine, then sat down next to Ning Yao and talked to her, "I went to Ze'er's yard just now. He took Mr. Feng and Miss Su Qi out to walk around. He said it was your eldest brother who had If you have to be busy, let him accompany you."
Ning Yao nodded, "The eldest brother has a lot to do, and the younger brother has nothing to do, so it is appropriate for him to accompany me."
Madam Hou sighed, "Your brother can no longer take the scientific examination. This title will no longer concern him. He has broken three more fingers. I'm afraid it will be difficult to get married. I really regret it. Before he goes to the capital, You should have arranged a marriage for him as early as possible. If you hadn't been very ambitious and wanted to marry a noble girl in the capital, you wouldn't have had to downgrade his marriage by a few grades. After all, people with physical disabilities can't be married to people with higher family status. He will definitely not be able to marry a girl. Also, he can't have nothing to do. What do you want him to do in the future? He can't just idle around for the rest of his life. Your father and I are still alive. If this Marquis Mansion can support him, I Your father is gone and the family property is divided. He has no title, and he is the second son. He can only get 30% of the family property. Although 30% of the family property is quite a lot, if he spends his whole life sitting on nothing, I'm afraid how will he live in his later years? I can see it too. , although your eldest brother is not a petty person, but at most he will not cause trouble for him. It is impossible for him to treat him like a brother from the same mother. This is all my fault. I have insisted on him fighting for the title these years. , now that I think about it, they are not close brothers, and now that your eldest brother can spare his life, I feel satisfied. I dare not expect anything else. "
Ning Yao said: "Mom, my brother was almost scared out of his mind when he went to the capital. Now he can come back in good condition. It's good. At least he is not crazy. As for the future, let's plan slowly. Come on! Even though I won’t be able to become an official, there are still other options.”
"What's the way out? He can barely read books." Mrs. Hou sighed, "You may think that he is a bit cowardly and weak, but if he is an official, he must be a tactful person who knows how to advance and retreat. He is a capable person. Someone who has a secure official position. He is my son and your brother. You should also know that his biggest shortcoming is that he has never experienced anything. Now that he has experienced a narrow escape, I think he was frightened out of his wits in a short period of time, but As time goes by, he will calm down and won't be afraid anymore. Your father is not a coward, your mother is not a coward, you are not a coward, and neither is your eldest brother. We cannot have him in our family, he is really a coward."
Ning Yao couldn't hold back and smiled, "Mother, what are your thoughts and plans for your brother when you tell your daughter this?"
Mrs. Hou nodded and said hesitantly: "I have an idea, but I haven't thought about it yet, and I'm worried that it won't work."
"Just tell me and I'll listen."
Mrs. Hou came closer to her and lowered her voice, "Your brother was just punished by the Daliang court and was not allowed to take the scientific examination. But if he goes to Nanchu and changes to another country, there is no control over him. The laws of Daliang cannot involve Nanchu." Chu is guilty of the same crime and punished with the same punishment."
Ning Yao was shocked, "Mother? Do you want to..."
Madam Hou held her hand and said, "Miss Su Qi is the princess of Nan Chu. Sooner or later, she will return to Nan Chu. This day is not far away. When I saw her yesterday, she looked casual and casual, but deep down she was... She is a powerful person, her words are impeccable, she can sharpen her soft and hard tools, and she can contract and stretch. She must be good at planning and controlling people. Yesterday, after your father’s banquet, he and I lamented privately, saying that he is old, and now The young man and the little girl are really amazing. They are worthy of being taught by Xie Yuan. People like her are capable, courageous, and have means. Even if the situation in Nanchu is complicated, she may be able to fight her way out. Go to the position of the King of Southern Chu. I heard you tell me again that you encountered more than a dozen waves of killers on your way back to Nanping? One of the groups was actually the prefect of Heyun County who sent two to three thousand troops to ambush him? But no one was there yet. When we were close to an ambush, she saw through it in advance and changed the route? She even led you and your brothers to climb a cliff thousands of meters away? How can such a person worry about something big happening? "
She looked at Ning Yao, "The entire Nanping Marquis Mansion will belong to your eldest brother from now on. Living under his hands, even if you are brothers from the same mother, how can you not have difficulties as time goes by? What's more, their relationship is also It’s not a relationship between brothers and sisters. So I thought, please Miss Su Qi, if she goes to Nanchu, take your brother with her."
Ning Yao reminded, "Mom, the situation in Nanchu is very complicated and dangerous. Are you willing to let it go? What if something happens to my brother accidentally..."
Mrs. Hou was silent for a moment and said: "Just because you are afraid that something will happen to him, you can't just tie him up at home, do nothing, be an idler, and live his whole life without a good wife or a good concubine. He will be under the hands of others all his life. He looks at people’s eyes and picks up the food that slips through their fingers.”
She paused, "The so-called parents love their children, they should have far-reaching plans."
She sighed, "If he lives in confusion for decades, spends his whole life groveling in front of your elder brother, flattering, begging for mercy, trying to please, being looked down upon by everyone in Nanping, and having his back poked, I would rather him Follow Miss Su Qi to Nanchu and try your luck."
She whispered: "Originally, I thought about it all night last night, and I was afraid that it would not work out. But just now, didn't I go to your brother's yard? I happened to meet him and Fengling talking and laughing. He came out of his room, arm-in-arm, and seemed to be in a good relationship, so I thought maybe it would work."
Ning Yao was silent, remembering that Fengling had cut off Ning Ze's three broken fingers, but they both deliberately concealed the matter and blamed it on Xie Lin. However, all the way back to Nanping from the capital, Fengling Although he disliked Ning Ze, he protected him all the way, and Ning Ze didn't seem to be that afraid of Fei Ling anymore. More than that, he could see that he also admired Fei Ling.
She thought for a moment and whispered: "Ask your brother what he wants first. If he agrees, let him go and beg Miss Su Qi himself!"
She reminded: "On the way back, my brother mentioned that he might as well follow Fei Ling from now on, but Fei Ling rejected him because he was disgusted and said that he was holding him back and that he couldn't use it and he didn't want it."
Mrs. Hou was surprised when she heard this and nodded, "Okay, mother understands."
