"Don't feel bad. It'll be fine if you come back. It can help them all live a better life." Min Xiang saw that her eyes were red and said with relief, "And after this disaster, what hardships can you not endure in the future?"
Leng Xiao felt very uncomfortable because they would not really have a good life when they came back, and his old man would continue to fight for Nangong Yitian.
"Grandma, what's going on now? I'll go to the King's Mansion tomorrow, and then I'll sneak over to see her."
"No, absolutely not." Min Xiang stopped her immediately, "Don't be emotional. How many pairs of eyes were staring at us just after we came back? You are the Crown Princess, you can't just leave the palace and return to your parents' home... The Min family now belongs to you. My natal family, unless there is an order from the emperor or the empress dowager, you should not go back."
"I will be more careful. I am not worried about my grandmother's condition." Leng Xiao said with sobs.
"I know the Crown Princess's heart, but you are either waiting for the decree or waiting for His Highness to come back. You can't go back by yourself, let alone go back secretly. Otherwise, if people know that you are involved in the imperial palace, you will be in trouble."
He sighed, "In the past, when the old minister didn't come back, the princess had no scruples and might be able to be a little more free. But now I'm afraid that's no longer the case. The old minister must stand with the prince. The emperor is afraid of the rat. Even if the emperor is not watching, the King of Jin will. I will keep an eye on him, and whenever someone with bad behavior is brought to court, he will become a lever in the hands of the emperor."
Leng Xiao understands that she was not afraid of anything in the past when they did not come back, but now that they have come back, it will be too easy for such a big family to find some fault.
She is their bond, and why are they not her bond?
From the day the Min family returned to Beijing, some things changed. People related to her were really pulled into the center of the whirlpool of imperial power.
Min Xiang asked: "I have one thing I want to ask the Crown Princess. How do you know the medical skills?"
Leng Xiao said: "I work with a miraculous doctor, but I don't want my master's identity to be known to outsiders, and I'm not allowed to tell others, so no one knows that I know medical skills. They know that I married into Prince Yi's Mansion. At that time, the prince His legs were disabled, so I used the medical skills my master taught me to treat him, and he was cured."
Min Xiang said: "Then this is also your blessing. His Highness has been cured, and now King Zhen has been cured. This is a great help to His Highness."
When Min Xiang heard that her master didn't want anyone to know his identity, he stopped asking about it. No matter what the inside story was, it was a fact that she now had superb medical skills.
He glanced at Leng Xiao's belly and felt a little relieved, "It looks like she's about to give birth. It will probably only take ten and a half days."
Leng Xiao stroked her belly and said with a smile: "It's still early, there are still more than two months until the baby is born."
"More than two months? Now it looks like she's about to give birth."
Leng Xiao whispered: "They are twins."
Min Xiang was stunned, then ecstatically asked, "Are you sure?"
"I am very sure."
Min Lian said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay!"
But the ecstasy didn't last long, and he frowned, "Twins, if it's a son and a daughter, that's fine, but if it's twins, I'm afraid..."
Since ancient times, emperors have been most afraid that their heirs would be useless and destroy the legacy built by their ancestors.
But at the same time, he was most afraid that the prince would win the favor of the people and his destiny, and he would snatch the throne from his hands.
Grandfather Taizu was born with twins. After he conquered the world, he exaggerated that the blessing of twins was a gift from God. If the people got twins, they would also be rewarded.
And she is the crown princess. If she gives birth to twins, the previous killing of Leng Zhenhuan will be rationalized. It is destiny that she will kill her relatives righteously. This is even sacred.
How could the emperor not be afraid?
