The foolish girl returns, and the regent becomes a wife-loving madman

Seeing that Shen Xinglin insisted, Mr. Shen did not continue to speak out to stop him.

Well, the grandparents and grandchildren all have the same temper. Once they make a decision, no one can stop them.

The next morning, Xie Lingxiao ordered Ling Feng to send Shen Xinglin to the military camp.

The Regent's Palace welcomed an unexpected guest.

Lu Zhenyu stood in the middle of the study, pursed his lips and lowered his head in silence.

Shen Jingxuan and Xie Lingxiao looked at each other, wondering why Lu Zhenyu came here.

"Mr. Lu, did you come here just to stand here and have nothing else to say?"

Lu Zhenyu gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I do have something I want to tell you, but after it's done, I also want to trouble you with something."

Xie Lingxiao asked: "Master Lu, are you trying to make a deal with me?"

Lu Zhenyu said: "It's not a deal. I told you the news voluntarily. As for my matter, I just want to ask the prince for help."

When Shen Jingxuan heard what Lu Zhenyu said, she suddenly felt that a smart person had finally appeared in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Knowing that Xie Lingxiao would never make a deal with the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he settled for the next best thing and just asked him for help.

Xie Lingxiao narrowed his eyebrows slightly: "Why don't you tell me your purpose first, Mr. Lu."

Lu Zhenyu said, "I just want to wait until the matter between the Queen and Lu Zhong is over, so that the prince can send me, my mother, and Xuan'er out of Shangjing City and save the three of us."

After saying that, without waiting for Xie Lingxiao to answer, he stuffed the note in his hand into Xie Lingxiao's hand and turned to walk out.

As for the result, he believed that Xie Lingxiao would agree after reading the note.

After Xie Lingxiao finished reading the note, he handed it to Shen Jingxuan. The four looked at each other in silence.

Most of the military power in Beiling Kingdom is in the hands of Xie Lingxiao, and the remaining small part is under the control of Marquis Zhongyong, which is also the military force that the emperor can control.

I'm afraid that not only the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, but even the Emperor himself does not know that the little military power he holds is no longer under his control.

"Lu Zhenyu actually sent such important news to me. What does he want to do? To sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice?"

"Didn't he say that he wanted me to help them escape from Shangjing City?"

Shen Jingxuan was puzzled: "He is the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. He must know the principle that if one prospers, all prosper, and if one suffers, all suffer."

What Lu Zhong did was so impossible for anyone, not only Lu Zhenyu, but also the people in the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, to escape.

As the legitimate son of the Prime Minister, how could it be so simple for him to make the decision to betray Lu Zhong and push his father into the abyss?

Xie Lingxiao narrowed his eyes slightly: "What Lu Zhenyu cares about may never be status, nor does he care about Lu Zhong."

"Perhaps it's just as he said. As long as the Prime Minister's wife, Lu Jinxuan, and the other three are safe, that's enough."

Shen Jingxuan looked at Xie Lingxiao, not knowing what she was feeling for a moment.

How deep is the hatred between Lu Zhenyu and Lu Zhong that could make him do such a thing to his own father?

Seeing Shen Jingxuan remained silent, Xie Lingxiao picked her up and put her on the couch.

"I'll take care of these things, just take care of yourself."

He looked at Shen Jingxuan's belly, which was much bigger than a few days ago, and his face was filled with worry.

"Xuan'er, how long will it take until the due date?"

"There's still half a month left." Shen Jingxuan answered truthfully.

Xie Lingxiao suddenly looked at her: "Half a month? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

After saying this, he felt a little annoyed. He thought he was careless and did not ask about this matter in time after returning home.

Shen Jingxuan smiled and said, "There are still so many days left, it's not too late to tell you now."

Not too late?

In such a short time, where could he find the best midwife and wet nurse?

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. Xie Lingxiao only had time to tell Shen Jingxuan that he was leaving the house before he left in a hurry.

When it was getting dark, Xie Lingxiao returned to the Regent's Palace.

Shen Jingxuan looked at the people behind him, her face full of joy: "Grandma, mother, why are you here?"

Madam Shen said, "Ah Xiao said that you are only half a month away from your due date, and he was worried that you would be scared, so he asked me and your mother to come and accompany you."

"How are you? Are you feeling unwell?" Hao stepped forward and supported Shen Jingxuan.

Seeing Shen Jingxuan shaking her head at the two of them, he finally felt relieved.

Thinking of how anxious and flustered Xie Lingxiao was when he went to the mansion, the two of them were scared.

If they had not asked carefully and found out that there was still half a month left, they would have thought that Shen Jingxuan would launch the attack today.

Shen Jingxuan pulled the two of them to sit down and said, "Grandma, you are here, what should grandpa do?"

Hao curled her lips and smiled: "Your grandfather also came with you. Xiao said that after you give birth to the child, he will send us back when you want to return to the mansion."

Madam Shen said, "Ah Xiao is also a good choice. I'm worried that we won't have enough time to hire a midwife. I'm afraid I'll have to walk all over the capital the whole afternoon."

Shen Jingxuan smiled and said, "There is still half a month left, so you can take your time to look for it. Why rush it now?"

Having said that, her raised lips and curved eyebrows all revealed that she was in a very good mood at the moment.

Hao patted Shen Jingxuan's hand and said, "He said he wanted to find the best midwife in the capital. He was worried that the date was approaching and the midwife would be too busy, so he wanted to bring her to the mansion in advance."

After hearing her mother's words, Shen Jingxuan raised the corners of her lips for a long time.

Old Madam Shen and Mrs. Hao stayed and talked with Shen Jingxuan in her yard until after dinner. Then they returned to their arranged residence, leaving only Shen Jingxuan and Xie Lingxiao in the room.

Shen Jingxuan leaned in Xie Lingxiao's arms: "Ah Xiao, have you found a midwife?"

"Yes, I found a few and brought them to your house."

Shen Jingxuan stared at him with wide eyes: "How many? How can we use so many?"

For an ordinary family, inviting one is enough, but how many did he invite?

If you don't know, you might mistakenly think that there is more than one lady in the Regent's Palace.

Xie Lingxiao said worriedly: "Not many. If the other midwives hadn't been booked in advance, it would be nice to hire a few more."

For some reason, he always felt a little nervous when looking at Shen Jingxuan's belly.

He had never seen any other woman giving birth, nor had he seen a belly bigger than Shen Jingxuan's.

"Xuan'er, can I ask the master to check your pulse later?"

"No." Shen Jingxuan refused decisively.

Xie Lingxiao said hurriedly: "It's good to take a look. Your belly looks much bigger than others. It will be reassuring to let Master take a look."

Shen Jingxuan said: "Master checked a few days ago, the child is very healthy, you don't have to worry."

I don't know why? The more Shen Jingxuan tried to stop him, the more uneasy Xie Lingxiao felt.

He ignored Shen Jingxuan's objection, called Ling Feng and asked him to invite Mr. Xue.

Shen Jingxuan said: "I'm really fine, why don't you believe me?"

"It's not that I don't believe you, but I'll feel more at ease if I take a look." Xie Lingxiao said.

Mr. Xue had just stepped into the room, heard Xie Lingxiao's words, and looked at Shen Jingxuan.

Seeing her blinking at him, the corners of his lips tightened slightly.

Xie Lingxiao stepped forward: "Master, please take a look at Xuan'er. I don't know why, but when I look at her belly, I always feel a little uneasy."

Elder Xue nodded and stepped forward to check Shen Jingxuan's pulse.

After a while, he withdrew his hand, quickly glanced at Shen Jingxuan, looked at Xie Lingxiao and said, "Xuan'er is in good health, don't worry."

"Thank you, Master." Xie Lingxiao turned around and said, "Lingfeng, send Master back to his room."

After Mr. Xue and Ling Feng left, he frowned slightly and stared at Shen Jingxuan intently.

"What's wrong? I told you not to worry. Are you relieved now?"

Xie Lingxiao pursed his lips and said, "Xuan'er, are you hiding something from me?"
