The Bai family was raided and Bai Hanyi was sentenced to immediate execution.

After receiving the news, Bai Wanqing ran to Zhou Wuwei's study to find him despite the maids' attempts to stop her.

"General, please save my father."

Bai Wanqing knelt in the study, crying inconsolably.

"Bai Hanyi embezzled so much money that even the king of heaven couldn't save him."

Zhou Wuwei put down the military book in his hand and looked at Bai Wanqing who was kneeling in front of him.

Does she know what embezzling 2000 million taels of silver means? The emperor was merciful in not executing the entire Bai family.

And Bai Wanqing was not implicated in any way, so what else could she want to do?

"General, please, for the sake of the baby in my belly, save the baby's grandfather."

Zhou Wuwei, who had looked calm just now, never expected that Bai Wanqing was actually pregnant.

"How long."

"More than February."

When Bai Wanqing heard Zhou Wuwei asking about the pregnancy, she just thought that Zhou Wuwei had softened his heart.

The baby in her belly is his first child, so naturally it is different.

"You hit it once?"

Zhou Wuwei roughly calculated the time. If Bai Wanqing was really pregnant, she should have been conceived in the palace according to the time.

He couldn't help but complain in his heart, Bai Wanqing is really capable.

"My menstruation is not regular, and I don't know when I got pregnant. The doctor only gave me an approximate time after taking my pulse, and he wasn't very sure. He said we can only know when the month is later."

Zhou Wuwei nodded slightly.

"Go back and take good care of yourself."

"General, my father."

"I've already said it before, Bai Hanyi's crime is unforgivable, even the gods can't save him."

"Go back."

Zhou Wuwei’s words made Bai Wanqing feel disappointed.

"General."

Zhou Wuwei didn't have the patience to waste time with Bai Wanqing, so he waved his hand and several maids and old women came in immediately.

"Send her back to her own residence. Do not let her out without the general's consent."

"Yes."

Several maids and old women worked together to cover Bai Wanqing who was about to speak and push her out.

Gu Congyun, who heard the news, came to the study soon.

"Wuwei, what do you want to do with Bai Wanqing?"

"I'll go to Liuli and get some abortion medicine. The daughter of a guilty minister is pregnant with a bastard. I really don't understand whether Bai Wanqing is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid."

"She obviously had a good hand. If she had been more content, she wouldn't have been rich but she wouldn't have lived a miserable life. It's a pity that she played such a good hand so badly."

Zhou Wuwei was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked at Gu Congyun and said, "Should we have a baby? I will stop taking pills starting tomorrow."

Gu Congyun was stunned and her cheeks turned red.

Zhou Wuwei always remembered the Zhou family rules that a man could not have illegitimate children before he got married, and he could not let his concubine give birth to a illegitimate eldest son.

For this purpose, he took some pills from Liuli. As long as they were taken on time, the women who had sex with him would not get pregnant.

That was why Zhou Wuwei was surprised when Bai Wanqing said she was pregnant.

Bai Wanqing was really brave. She dared to poison the emperor and give birth to a bastard to fool him.

He didn't expose her in person because he was too lazy to talk nonsense with her.

Just abort the bastard and he won’t see her again.

"I, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the general. You know I'm not in good health."

"I've already asked Liuli, and she said she has a lot of good medicine. You can still get pregnant with our child."

"Really?"

Gu Congyun's eyes were bright. She thought she would never have her own children in this life, but she didn't expect Zhou Wuwei to suddenly give her hope.

"Let's try our best first. If we still can't get pregnant, let Liuli help you take care of your body."

"Don't feel pressured. We will all have our own children sooner or later."

"it is good."

Logically speaking, Bai Wanqing was still in her early pregnancy and she would have had her period after taking one dose of the medicine.

Just when everyone thought she had miscarried, unexpectedly, a few months later, Bai Wanqing's belly grew bigger day by day.

There were not many people serving in her yard, and by the time everyone found out that she did not have an abortion, the baby was already several months old.

When Gu Congyun found out about this, she happened to be pregnant. She felt that the child in Bai Wanqing's belly was innocent, and since it was so lucky, she might as well keep it.

So a few months later, Bai Wanqing gave birth to a daughter.

And Gu Congyun gave birth to a son for Zhou Wuwei.

As for Ye Jintang, Ye Jintang and Xiao Mo had been waiting for Zheng Hai to return to Beijing since the beginning of the year.

This wait lasted until the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month.

On the day Zhenghai returned, the capital city experienced the heaviest snowstorm since the winter.

The entire capital city was covered with snow. Ye Jintang stood on the city wall and looked out at the beautiful sight of the red walls, yellow tiles and white snow complementing each other.

"Is Jintang cold?"

Xiao Mo tightened Ye Jintang's cloak, fearing that the north wind would sneak into her clothes.

"It's not cold. Such beautiful scenery doesn't appear every year."

"Such a heavy snowfall is not entirely a good thing. I am worried that the winter wheat will not be able to withstand the frost and will affect next year's harvest."

Xiao Mo looked at the snow scene in front of him with great worry.

Winter wheat is much more important than beautiful scenery. This year winter came earlier than in previous years, and the cold winter lasted longer. I don’t know whether the winter wheat can survive.

"Brother Xiao, you can rest assured. The winter wheat I provided is more cold-resistant than ordinary wheat. I took this into consideration when I was trying to plant it in Ningchuan Prefecture."

"Ningchuan City has a good harvest of winter wheat, so this little snow in the capital is nothing."

While the two were talking, the north wind blew, and the snowflakes flew into the air.

Jin Yuan hurried up to the city wall. The snow on the city wall had already frozen into a thin layer of ice. He walked too fast and almost fell to the ground several times.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the former chief eunuch Zheng Hai requests an audience."

"Is Zheng Hai back?"

Xiao Mo's face lit up with joy, and he pulled Ye Jintang down to the city wall.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please slow down. The ground on the tower is quite slippery."

"Jin Yuan, I told you some time ago to practice martial arts. If your martial arts skills were a little stronger, you wouldn't be unable to handle this slippery ground."

Xiao Mo pulled Ye Jintang and walked quickly down the city wall, while Jin Yuan followed behind. It seemed that the two of them flashed by a few times before they were already at the bottom of the city wall.

He hurried forward, slipping twice in one step, wondering if he didn't want to learn martial arts anymore.

He had tried hard, but he had no talent in martial arts. No matter how hard he tried, the sword seemed to have a grudge against him and would not obey him at all.

Outside the east warm room of the imperial study, Zhenghai had been waiting here for quite some time.

He knew all the eunuchs and maids serving in the palace. They brought him hot tea and snacks, fearing that he would be neglected.

He accepted it all with a smile. The fact that he was treated so well when he returned to the palace today showed that he had been a very good person in the palace before.
