Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger

Like them, Meng Yunshang and Lu Chenxiao were also reviewing the adultery.

"Did you arrange for Song Jinyan and Chen Qimeng to have such a good show?"

Lu Chenxiao looked at her carefully, and only felt relieved after making sure that she was not angry with Song Jinyan.

"Song Jinyan blamed you for Lu Honglang's matter. It is obvious that he secretly got the promise from Prince Yu. Prince Yu is narrow-minded. It is easy for him to alienate them. He just needs to let Song Jinyan establish a relationship with the noble family. Chen Qimeng's way is the most convenient."

"What about Rufang?"

"Disgusting people naturally pair up."

The corners of Meng Yunshang's mouth twitched slightly. No wonder he said Lu Ming was very busy. It turned out that he was busy pairing up those annoying people.

"If one day Prince Yu cooperates with the noble families, wouldn't we be doing them a favor?"

"Then they will never cooperate."

Lu Chenxiao held Meng Yunshang's hand and asked seriously, "If there is any more scheming like this, we won't get involved. It's too boring."

The women in the deep palace and backyards only use the same tricks to fight each other. Not only are they unoriginal, but they are also boring and vulgar.

Meng Yunshang reminded him with amusement, "You asked Lu Ming to bring Song Jinyan and Chen Qimeng together. Wasn't that just a boring trick?"

"What we are saying is that in the struggles in the harem, usually the means don't have to be sophisticated, as long as they work."

Lu Chenxiao frowned, "Then we will just be chess players from now on."

Meng Yunshang smiled but said nothing.

After playing the same game too many times, I really have no interest in playing it again. I hope Empress Chen, who is pregnant, can realize this.

Palace Gate

Cheng paced back and forth anxiously, muttering to herself.

Meng Jinyou's ears were buzzing from being scolded, and he quickly reached out to support her, "Mom, Shang'er hasn't come out yet, how about we go to the carriage and wait for her first?"

"You'er, mother is very worried. The maid who led Shang'er to Magnolia Palace was my new recruit, but I don't know if she has any ulterior motives. And Shuyao... What if Shang'er misunderstands me, how should I explain to her?"

"Mom!" Meng Jinyou called her seriously.

"Well, Jinyou, just speak frankly. Mom will definitely listen to you."

Cheng suddenly felt anxious.

God knows, she is most afraid of her son having a sullen face.

Because every time I see him scolding people with a stern face, I feel like I was standing in the corner as a punishment by my old father when I was a child.

Meng Jinyou sighed, "Mother has been soft-hearted towards Meng Shuyao time and time again, allowing her to hurt Shang'er many times. Have you ever considered Shang'er?"

"Shang'er is safe and sound this time, not because the mastermind behind the scenes is soft-hearted, but because she is smart and alert enough. If there is any mistake, she will be doomed. If that happens, can you have a clear conscience?"

"Besides, even if she is fine this time, she may not be able to rest easy in the future. As her family, we can't give her a huge help, but at least we can't hold her back."

Cheng was so ashamed of what her son said, "You'er, you are right. I am indeed not a suitable mother."

"Mother, guess why Meng Shuyao doesn't want to get along with Mu Shi, and why she has to stick with you?"

"Because there is something profitable in me?"

"It's good for you to know that Meng Shuyao has already taken away Shang'er's wealthy life for the first fifteen years. There is no reason for her to dominate Shang'er's future life. Otherwise, Shang'er will break up with you."

Cheng nodded carefully, "I understand."

As night fell, the entire capital city fell into silence.

But in the study room of Qingfeng Courtyard, candles were brightly lit.

Cheng Yao looked at the southwest map on the table and said with a sense of despair, "The situation in the southwest is far more complicated than I imagined. Can I really go there?"

Meng Jinyou wanted to ease his anxiety, so he asked back in a relaxed tone, "How do you know it won't work if you don't try?"

"It's no problem for me to lead the troops into battle, but I'm really not good at intrigue and schemes. Wudang and his men are rough and uncouth, and they only know how to use brute force. If we go to the southwest, they will be completely clueless and we will all be finished."

Without waiting for Meng Jinyou to respond, he frowned and sighed again, "After all, I'm still not as cunning as you."

Meng Jinyou: “…”

You are not smart enough, and you dare to blame others for being smart?

Just as the thought came to his mind, Cheng Yaole laughed and said, "Why don't you come with me to the southwest, Ayou? Anyone can be the prime minister, but you are the only one who can be the military advisor."

"I……"

"Not for the time being," Lu Chenxiao said in a cold voice, "Your goal of taking over the Southwest Army is too clear, Ayou can't go with you, and my brother has a more important task to give him."

"What should I do? I can't beat those old foxes from the Fang family."

Cheng Yao cried out in anxiety. If he had known earlier, he would not have said such confident words.

But asking him to admit in front of all the civil and military officials that he is not as good as Fang Shao, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?

Lu Chenxiao stroked his forehead, "If he can't go himself, can't I arrange for a few smart and thoughtful people to go with you?"

"Yes, you must have some senior brothers and junior brothers, right? Quickly arrange a few for me. It would be best if they are like you, capable of killing people without paying for their lives."

Meng Jinyou: Please listen to me, thank you.

Lu Chenxiao laughed twice and signaled Meng Jinyou, "The military situation in the southwest is of great importance. You should find a way to contact your master."

Meng Jinyou nodded seriously, "I sent a letter to Master by carrier pigeon two days ago, and I will receive a reply tomorrow at the latest."

"So good."

Cheng Yao realized it later, "So you guys had already discussed this before I knew about it?"

Meng Jinyou nodded calmly, "Who made you grow taller but not smarter these years? Shouldn't the prince and I make more plans?"

Cheng Yao: “…”

Thanks, I was offended.

Lu Chenxiao stood up calmly, "It's late, the princess is still waiting for me to go to bed, you guys go back."

Meng Jinyou: “???”

It will be thrown away after use. Is this all its value?

Cheng Yao: “!!!”

He also wants to sleep with his wife in his arms.

The night is as cold as water.

After Lu Chenxiao took a shower, he prepared to go to bed quietly.

However, just as I approached the edge of the bed, I heard a shrill cry from the bed, "No!"

Lu Chenxiao strode to the bedside. Under the candlelight, Meng Yunshang frowned, her face full of pain.

"Huai An, don't, don't kill him!"

"Lu Chenxiao, run!"

Lu Chenxiao didn't bother to ask the reason, and quickly held her in his arms, whispering to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, baby, I'm here, I'm still here."

"Why are you doing this to me, why!"

"I'm sorry Huai'an, I'm sorry Lu Chenxiao."

Incoherent words and heart-wrenching emotions.

"Baby...Shang'er, wake up!"

Lu Chenxiao wanted to wake her up anxiously, but Meng Yunshang was in a nightmare, mumbling a few words back and forth, shouting at the top of her lungs.

Danqiu, who was on duty at night, was awakened and asked what had happened.

Lu Chenxiao ordered in a deep voice, "Call Fuling!"

"Okay, Your Majesty."

Huai'an, who was on the other side of the bed, was also awakened. Seeing his mother's eyes closed, he was so scared that tears welled up in his eyes.

"Father, what happened to mother?"
