Kind people can never understand the thoughts of evil people. Mrs. An could barely accept that the father and son of the Duke of Zhenguo died on the battlefield fighting for the court, but she really could not accept that they were killed by someone.
Mrs. An fell ill and had been sick for many days. If it weren't for An Nuan taking care of her and her grandson, she would most likely have died.
The death of the Duke of Zhenguo and his son on the battlefield shocked the government and the public twelve years ago. Twelve years later, it was revealed that they were murdered, which shocked the government and the public even more.
The emperor felt guilty and rewarded the Zhenguo Mansion with many things, but the Zhenguo Mansion did not need those things. Prince Yu brought people to submit a memorial, requesting that the favor be extended to the Zhenguo Mansion's side branches. The two sons of Old Master An entered the court as officials, one of the seventh rank and the other of the sixth rank.
Concubine Ye was banished to the cold palace and was not allowed to leave until she died. The princess wanted Concubine Ye to live happily, so Empress Xu sent people to guard Concubine Ye to prevent her from committing suicide.
All the people in the Changping Marquis's family were imprisoned. The emperor heard everything clearly about Concubine Ye's confession that night, so the Ministry of Justice didn't even need to interrogate the Changping Marquis.
The emperor ordered the execution of the entire Changping Earl's family.
Concubine Ye and the Earl of Changping did such a thing, even if the Prince of Qi was the emperor's own flesh and blood, he could not escape.
The emperor ordered the Prince of Qi to be demoted to a commoner, but did not confiscate the Prince of Qi's palace. This was the last bit of blood relationship the emperor left.
However, the emperor did not copy it. Xie Guimo sent secret guards to copy it, and took away everything the secret guards could take away.
The Qi Wang Party was not just composed of the Earl of Changping, but also included the Left Prime Minister and a bunch of followers. During that half month, ministers were imprisoned and their residences raided almost every day in Kyoto. The Qi Wang Party collapsed, with some imprisoned and some exiled. No prince in the court had the power to compete with the Prince of Yu for the crown prince position.
The princes who were close to the King of Qi all kept a low profile.
That day, Shen Tang was sitting by the bed, playing with the two children, when Si'er came in and said, "Princess Consort, the Ministry of Justice will execute the entire Changping Marquis's Mansion at the Caishikou on West Street in ten days..."
This date is really well chosen.
It happened to be the day when Shen Tang came out of confinement.
She could go out and watch the execution.
When Xie Guimo came back, Shen Tang said, "That day, I will go to Caishikou to watch the execution of Changpingbo."
Xie Guimo looked at Shen Tang and said, "What's so good about being beheaded? Aren't you afraid of having nightmares when you get home?"
Shen Tang shook his head, "I'm not afraid!"
Her eyes were firm. Xie Guimo thought of Shen Tang's past life, when the King of Qi and the Earl of Changping held great power and had the final say over their lives. She wanted to see the Earl of Changping's complete defeat, so she agreed. "Okay, I'll take you there that day."
Shen Tang liked the way Xie Guimo looked at her dotingly. She hugged his arm, but Xie Guimo pulled it back, "Sit still, Ansheng."
His poor self-control was on the verge of collapse. How could he withstand her closeness? He was counting the days.
Shen Tang was looking forward to being released from confinement, and he was even more looking forward to it than Shen Tang.
But after the confinement period, it will take another half a month before you can think about anything else.
Well, a certain gentleman has been sleeping on the bed in the first half of the night and sleeping on the couch in the second half recently. It has almost become a habit.
Days pass by one after another.
Shen Tang's lochia had almost been discharged, and she felt no different from before she became pregnant. However, neither the princess nor Mother Zhou would allow her to go out before the end of her confinement period. Shen Tang stayed cooped up in the room and was almost sick.
Fortunately, she had two children and Xie Guimo to accompany her, so it wasn't too boring.
That day, after breakfast, Shen Tang looked out the window at the bright sunshine outside. God knows how much he wanted to go out for a walk, but he could only hold it back.
The nurse brought the child in, and Shen Tang played with the child. Si'er ran in from outside and said happily, "Crown Princess, Princess Roujia has given birth!"
The news came so suddenly that Shen Tang was stunned. Yin Xing asked, "Why is she about to give birth? Isn't it still half a month away?"
No matter how Shen Tang calculated, Princess Roujia gave birth after she was out of confinement. She wanted to go to Prince Ning's Mansion to see her as soon as possible, but she didn't expect it to be so early.
Shen Tang couldn't go out and was very worried, so he sent Ginkgo to Prince Ning's mansion to check on him.
Ginkgo didn't return home until the evening. As soon as she came in, Shen Tang asked, "Did you give birth? Is it a boy or a girl?"
Ginkgo grinned, "Princess, take a guess."
Shen Tang wanted to beat her up, "Hurry up and tell me."
Ginkgo said, "Princess Roujia, like the Crown Prince's wife, also gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl."
Shen Tang's eyes opened wide.
She hadn't seen Princess Roujia many times since she became pregnant, so she didn't know how big Princess Roujia's belly was. But she had seen Xiao Huan several times. He had never told his sister that Princess Roujia was pregnant with twins, and he had kept it a secret for the time being.
No wonder people say that if a family has twin boys and girls, the chances of the next generation giving birth to twin boys and girls will be greater, and it turns out to be true.
Ginkgo said, "The two children are not as heavy as the young master and young lady. One weighs four catties, and the other weighs three catties and nine ounces. But Dean Zhao said that the children are very healthy."
However, Ginkgo didn't see the two children, so she didn't know whether they looked like Xiao Huan or Princess Roujia.
Shen Tang was happy for his elder brother and the Ning Palace. They had two grandchildren at once, and the old Prince Ning and the old Princess Ning must be extremely happy.
Ginkgo took out a purse from his bosom and tossed it to Qiutong. Qiutong asked, "What is this...?"
Ginkgo said, "Old Prince Ning and Old Princess Ning were very happy and gave the Ning Palace a monthly allowance for the first and second half of the year. I also got some money as a gift. The nanny who gave me the money knew that you and I were both maids serving the Crown Prince's Consort, so she asked me to bring you some as well."
The next day, the princess went to Prince Ning's mansion to congratulate him. Xie Guimo also went. After returning, Xie Guimo held his daughter's hand and said, "Fortunately, Yan'er looks like me, otherwise she would doubt that she was not her biological child when she grows up."
Shen Tang was confused. "Why do you say that?"
Xie Guimo said, "Your eldest brother's daughter looks very much like you."
Shen Tang, "..."
It is said that nephews resemble their uncles and nieces resemble their aunts.
It's normal for the eldest brother's daughter to look like her aunt.
but--
The resemblance that could make Xie Guimo sigh like this was more than just an ordinary one.
Shen Tang was very curious, "Is it really that similar?"
Xie Guimo smiled and said, "When Yan'er and her are put together, I have to hesitate to decide which one is more yours."
Shen Tang, "..."
I had originally wanted to go to Prince Ning's Mansion to see my nephew and niece, and after hearing what Xie Guimo said, I felt even more eager.
The two pairs of twin boys and girls were born one month apart. When the four children grew up and were brought together, they were often mistaken for quadruplets.
The four children’s favorite game is the game of exchanging sisters and brothers.
Often one son and one daughter go out, and come back with two sons or two daughters.
After their two daughters came back, Xiao Huan and Xie Guimo waited for the other party to send their son back in exchange. If their daughters did not come back, they would have to go and exchange them back quickly.
This is a matter for the future, so let’s not talk about it for now.
