Mrs. Jing'an Hou told Si Ning what Jing'an Hou meant.
"Now the imperial court is unpredictable, and all forces are ready to make moves. Han Xiao has always been a big influence, and now you have received awards again and again. My husband and I both feel that you and he should avoid the limelight for a while and must not act in a high-profile manner..."
"I'm not worried about Han Xiao, I'm more worried about you. I know very well what the Ning'an Marquis Mansion is like. Han Xiao is busy with official duties and is not often at home. I'm not worried about you living there alone. Please move in with me. , when this period of time is over, if you want to move back, then move back."
Si Ning was touched twice today, from Madam Jing'an Hou's concern to now her planning for him.
Obviously she can say more beautiful words, and she can obviously get more benefits from Si Ning by fawning over Lu Hanxiao, but Mrs. Jing'an Hou has no purpose and only cares about Si Ning.
Si Ning used to be wary of people's unprovoked kindness, but now she knows that interactions between people rely on fate, and many things will fall into place when fate comes.
She thought of another thing, touched her belly and said to Mrs. Jing'an Hou.
"Have you forgotten that I am pregnant..."
These words made Mrs. Jing'an Hou suddenly realize. She looked at Si Ning's flat belly and asked uncertainly.
"Really, how many months have you been pregnant?"
There was no joy on her face, but more worry.
The women in the inner palace may not be aware of the current situation, but Marquis Jing'an and his wife Marquis Jing'an have mentioned several times that the emperor's health is deteriorating day by day, and the fight for the throne is inevitable.
Several princes are working hard to bring the ministers of the court into their camp. Even the princes of Jing'an Hou are trying hard to win over them, not to mention Lu Hanxiao who has a heavy army?
But Lu Hanxiao's attitude is unclear. Everyone is waiting to see his attitude, and while watching, they will inevitably make some small moves.
He is a Shura on the battlefield and is not afraid of these conspiracies, but Si Ning is not.
Now that the child in her belly is another weakness, Mrs. Jing'an Marquis cannot be happy at all.
Si Ning knew her worry and reached out to pat her arm.
"Don't worry, I'm capable of protecting myself."
She didn't mention that the child in her belly was fake. She knew very well that everyone should have their own secrets.
This "secret" in her belly will be of great use in the future. Once discovered, it will be a crime of beheading.
It's not that she doesn't trust Mrs. Jing'an Hou, on the contrary, she regards her as the person closest to her.
But the closer the people are, the less she wants them to know.
Concern leads to chaos. When the incident comes to light, it is inevitable that they will not risk anything because of worry.
Si Ning didn't want to take this risk. She had always been sensible and knew what she should say and what she should do.
Madam Jing'an Hou did not doubt her, and sighed deeply after hearing her words.
"You are so good, why do you have to go through such twists and turns?"
She took Si Ning's hand, and Si Ning held hers in return.
"I should be lucky to meet you."
The two cherished each other, and Si Ning cherished this relationship especially.
Madam Jing'an Hou asked her if she felt uncomfortable in any way. Si Ning shook her head. Madam Jing'an Hou said that she should have an obedient child in her belly and not to torment Sining.
As he spoke, he brought the topic back to the previous topic, "Are you really not going to move here?"
Si Ning shook his head, "Han Xiao is not here, Mrs. Lu is ill in bed, and the aunt in the second bedroom is waiting to give birth. It would be shameful for me to leave."
In the troubled times of the Lu family, Si Ning would only be criticized if he hid out.
Mrs. Jing'an Hou nodded as she listened, "That's the same reason, but I still don't feel at ease because you don't have anyone to take care of you at home."
"It's okay, I will take care of myself. By the way, madam, I have something to discuss with you."
Madam Marquis Jing'an, "If you want to meet with me or discuss anything, just tell me directly."
"My eldest sister-in-law begged me yesterday and wanted my eldest brother and nephew to come back and join the patrol."
"Your elder brother?"
Si Ning knew that Mrs. Jing'an Hou had misunderstood, so he explained, "It's the eldest room of the Lu family."
Mrs. Jing'an Hou only had some impressions of the second bedroom and didn't know anything about the first bedroom.
"I have to ask the master about this first. If it is an insignificant errand, there should be no problem. Since you asked, I also want to ask you, what are your thoughts on this matter?"
Si Ning didn't hide it, "I didn't want to agree at first, but my sister-in-law begged me again and again. I was seeking revenge if I didn't agree. Madam, there is no need to embarrass her. I told her that everyone does their best to do this kind of thing. How many people are watching?" No one can guarantee the errand of patrolling with the army."
Mrs. Jing'an Hou almost knew what Si Ning was thinking, and she nodded.
"I'll take care of it. I'll tell you some news. You tell me about the epidemic. Master, I heard that Sun Xun is giving you a hard time?"
Si Ning and Sun Xun didn't know each other before, so she was surprised that he would do that.
She told the story from beginning to end, and Mrs. Jing'an Hou felt sad.
"Fortunately, because of you, a lot of lives were saved. It seems that not all doctors adhere to the principle of treating diseases and saving lives. They also have selfish motives."
Selfishness and human nature are often the hardest to control, and Si Ning also felt it was a pity.
If Sun Xun's medical skills were put on the right track, he might be able to help many people.
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions, and you can't force them."
While the two were talking, the servant hurried in.
"Madam, a post from the eldest princess's palace."
Madam Jing'an Hou unfolded it and looked at it for a moment, then handed it to Si Ning.
"The eldest princess invited me to go to the house to discuss relief matters after the epidemic. So many people died this time, and the emperor has not made arrangements yet. The eldest princess took the initiative to bring it up first, not knowing that the emperor knew about it. have no idea?"
Si Ning, "The eldest princess and the emperor are connected by the same blood. It may not be unclear. We cannot guess what the holy will is."
Mrs. Marquis Jing'an nodded, "The time is set for tomorrow. You must have received the invitation by now. There will definitely be a lot of people going tomorrow, so you should be more careful."
After returning to the mansion, Si Ning indeed got the invitation from the eldest princess' mansion at the concierge.
There was not one invitation, but two.
The previous one was an invitation for Si Ning to come over to the mansion for a chat, and the content of the other one was similar to the post seen at Jing'an Marquis Mansion, asking Sining to go to the eldest princess's mansion to discuss post-disaster relief measures.
Si Ning returned to the room and handed the two posts to Qiu Ju, "Don't let the second room interfere with the concierge's affairs in the future."
Although the power of the housekeeper is now in the hands of Li Xutang, the house is no longer what it used to be, and people are no longer something Li Xutang can move around at will.
Qiu Ju agreed, frowning as she read the post.
"At this time, why did the eldest princess post to you? Shouldn't the disaster relief matters be left to the Ministry of Household Affairs? Why should the ladies be discussed?"
Si Ning didn't know what medicine the eldest princess was selling in her gourd, but no matter what medicine she wanted to sell, she had to go there once.
"Go and have a look first. Only when you see the trick can you take action, right?"
