Xie Guimo, Xiao Xun and the others raised their glasses and drank heartily.

The full moon banquet was very lively and both the guests and the hosts had a great time.

But Shen Tang really didn't like Xie Guimo accompanying her in the carriage after drinking. The smell of alcohol in the carriage almost made her drunk, and what was even worse was that this bastard liked to do something stupid in the carriage.

Normally Shen Tang would resolutely not allow it, but when he thought that this bastard was going to the border tomorrow, his heart softened and he let him do whatever he wanted.

The carriage took a detour back to Prince Jingyang's Mansion. On the way back, Xie Guimo carried Shen Tang off the carriage and took him back to Chenxiangxuan.

After returning to the house, Shen Tang glared at him and said, "I still have to pack your things."

Xie Guimo looked very satisfied, "Didn't we finish cleaning it a long time ago?"

"What if there's something missing?" Shen Tang said.

Xie Guimo laughed, "I can't carry so many things."

Going to the border to fight is not as easy as staying at home.

Shen Tang felt that the border was different from being at home, so he tried to bring as much as he could. Xie Guimo would look at the prepared things and pick out what he needed to take away.

He bit Shen Tang's earlobe and said, "I just want to have a good meal before leaving."

Shen Tang, "..."

This bastard!

I really want to gnaw her until there is not a single bone left.

Shen Tang glared, "I'll go see you off tomorrow."

"I'm going to the border tomorrow, and I don't know when I'll be back..."

The reluctant look in his eyes could squeeze water out of him.

What could Shen Tang do? He could only let this bastard do what he wanted.

Shen Tang wanted to see him off, but when he woke up the next day, it was already noon. Shen Tang asked, "What time is it? Why didn't you wake me up?"

Ginkgo said, "Before the Crown Prince left, he specifically instructed us not to wake up the Crown Princess."

Shen Tang hurriedly lifted the car curtain and got out of bed, but her legs were so weak that she almost fell to the ground.

Qiu Tong helped Shen Tang sit on the bed, "The prince and his men left early."

What a bastard!

On this side, Shen Tang was greeting Xie Guimo in his heart, and at the city gate, Princess Roujia was bidding Xiao Huan farewell with reluctance.

Chu Yi looked at Xie Guimo, "Lu Li and I and their wives can't come, why didn't your sister-in-law come to see you off?"

"It has been delivered," said Xie Guimo.

"..."

"No way, just send it to the door?" Chu Yi said.

"..."

Chen Qi couldn't help laughing out loud.

Chu Yi looked at him, "What are you laughing at?"

Xie Guimo glanced at Chen Qi.

Chen Qi stopped smiling immediately and said, "I sent it to the gate of the courtyard."

Chu Yi, “…”

isn't it?

It's better not to send it.

This was Chen Qi's embellishment. In fact, when the Crown Prince left, the Crown Princess didn't even get out of bed or open the door to see him off.

Princess Roujia wanted to send Xiao Huan to Shili Pavilion, but Xiao Huan refused, "None of their wives came to see them off, and you just finished your confinement. Go back."

Princess Roujia was also wondering why Shen Tang didn't send Xie Guimo off. Knowing that they were anxious to get to the border, she could only suppress her reluctance and waved goodbye.

Xiao Huan mounted his horse, looked at Princess Roujia for a long time, then kicked his horse's belly and rushed to the border with Xie Guimo and the others.

After the prince went to the border, the princess felt half empty. After Xie Guimo also went to the border, the princess felt half empty again. Fortunately, Shen Tang and the two children were with her in the palace, otherwise the princess really didn't know how she would have endured this life.

The same went for Shen Tang. She was used to eating with Xie Guimo and him holding her in his arms as he slept at night. It took Shen Tang half a month to get used to his departure.

The days were extremely leisurely. The weather was good, and Shen Tang took the two children to pay their respects to the princess. They basked in the sun in the garden for a while, and then returned to Chenxiangxuan. In the evening, the princess came to Chenxiangxuan and played with the two children for a while. The day passed.

Before Xie Guimo went to the border, Shen Tang asked him to write a letter to her when he was free. Xie Guimo agreed readily, but it was not until a month after he went to the border that Shen Tang received his first letter.

However, the letters from home were very thick, obviously written separately, but no one sent the letters back, so they had to be collected and sent together.

This life is very different from the previous one. In the previous life, there were constant natural disasters and man-made disasters, which drained the already thin national treasury. In this life, there were several natural disasters, and the losses were minimized as much as possible.

In the previous life, Xie Guimo defeated Xiliang step by step. In this life, the prince is still alive, and there are the prince, Xie Guimo, and so many generals.

Shen Tang firmly believed that Da Qi would win this battle.

And it's fast.

Xie Guimo would send a letter home almost every month.

On the day the fourth letter from home was received, news also reached the Jingyang Prince's Mansion that Concubine Ye had died suddenly in the cold palace.

The princess hoped that Concubine Ye would live in misery in the cold palace for twenty years, but unfortunately, things did not go as she wished.

Concubine Ye lived a life of luxury and could not stand the loneliness of the cold palace. After only half a year, she was exhausted. When she got up at night, she fell down and could not get up. When the palace maids in the cold palace brought her food the next day, Concubine Ye's body was already cold.

As much as the emperor doted on Concubine Ye before, he hated her even more after the incident and refused to allow her to be buried in the imperial mausoleum.

The funeral of Concubine Ye was arranged by the deposed King of Qi, Xiao Shen, and she was buried with everyone in the Changping Earl's Mansion.

On the night of Concubine Ye's burial, assassins broke into Prince Jingyang's Mansion, but they were all killed before they could even enter Chenxiangxuan, leaving no one alive.

It’s not that they didn’t want to keep him, but the assassin committed suicide too quickly and the secret guards couldn’t react.

That night, the original Prince Qi's Mansion caught fire and the fire burned all night.

The tendons in the King of Qi's right hand were severed.

Originally, Shen Tang and the princess would occasionally go out of the house, but after this incident, they would not go out if possible.

The assassins could not break into Prince Jingyang's Palace, but they wanted to leave. Although there would be secret guards following them wherever they went, it was better to be safe than sorry.

When the sixth letter from home was received, the emperor had appointed Prince Yu as the crown prince.

Princess Yu naturally became the Crown Princess.

On the night that Prince Yu entered the Eastern Palace, Princess Yu went into labor and gave birth to a son.

The emperor was very pleased and held a grand full-moon banquet. The princess and Shen Tang both went to the palace to celebrate.

The first six letters from home were received on time, either one or two days in advance or one or two days late, but for the seventh letter, Shen Tang waited and waited, but it still didn't arrive.

Shen Tang was looking forward to it. That night, when Shen Tang fell asleep, she felt someone touching her cheek.

She was startled, "Who is it?!"

"it's me."

Shen Tang's eyes widened at the familiar voice.

Xie Guimo lit a lamp, and Shen Tang looked at him, "Why are you back?"

Xie Guimo said with a tired look on his face, "I'm transporting grain to Chuzhou. I'll come back when I have a few days free. I'll leave tomorrow morning."

Shen Tang asked, "It's so late, the city gates are closed, how did you get back?"

Xie Guimo pinched Shen Tang's nose and said, "The height of the city wall is not a problem for me."

They say a short separation is better than a new marriage, let alone a separation of more than half a year.

Needless to say, it was like dry wood and raging fire.

Chuzhou is four hundred miles away from Kyoto. He rode his horse at full speed, traveling day and night without stopping for a moment. He could only stay there for one night and then had to rush back. He could not delay the transportation of grain back to the border because of personal matters.

Although it wouldn't cause any delay, he returned to the capital without permission. Apart from the secret guards in the mansion, only the princess and Shen Tang knew about it.

But two months later, everyone in Kyoto knew about it.

because--

Shen Tang is pregnant!

When Shen Tang was pregnant with her first child, she ate everything with relish, but with this one, she vomited all over the place.

Even Ginkgo and Qiutong didn't know that Xie Guimo had come back. When they saw Shen Tang feeling nauseous, no one thought that she was pregnant. Even though they thought it was very similar, they didn't dare to. Are you kidding? The prince has been at the border for more than half a year, and the prince's wife is pregnant. Isn't it obvious that she is cuckolding the prince?

Shen Tang didn't think it would be such a coincidence, no, she got pregnant three times in one night.

The princess saw that she was vomiting violently and asked, "Are you pregnant?"

Mother Yun and several maids were there at the time, all staring at the princess with wide eyes.

Does the princess know what she is talking about?

Shen Tang was extremely frightened. Ever since she gave birth to her two children, her menstrual period had been irregular. After seeing the imperial physician who said it was nothing serious, Shen Tang didn't take it seriously. Could she really be pregnant?

The princess invited the imperial physician into the palace to take her pulse. God knows how trembling the physician's hands were as he took her pulse.

The Prince of Jingyang has been at the border for ten months, but his wife is two and a half months pregnant. He is afraid that he will not be able to leave the Jingyang Palace alive.

The imperial physician was trembling with fear, wondering how to save her life, but the princess asked anxiously, "Are you pregnant?"

The imperial physician looked at Shen Tang and said in a vague voice, "Yes, is it?"

Shen Tang, "..."

Shen Tang held his forehead.

The princess knew at once that the imperial physician had misjudged the situation and said, "Mo'er came back two months ago."

The imperial physician breathed a sigh of relief, "She's pregnant, two and a half months pregnant, and her pulse is very stable."

Because of the pregnancy, everyone knew that a certain gentleman had sneaked back to Beijing.

When the news reached the military camp, the prince was very happy that he would have another grandson, but he was also very angry. He sent his son to Chuzhou to do business, so he had to return to Beijing every few days. If he was not punished, his soldiers would follow suit and delay their work.

A certain gentleman received thirty military sticks.

Chu Yi also received the punishment.

Lying on the bench, Chu Yi gritted his teeth.

He and Xie Guimo went to Chuzhou together and returned to Beijing together, but he was in trouble when he returned home. It was dark and the secret guards did not realize it was him. They thought he was an assassin who sneaked into the Xuanyi Marquis Mansion in the dark, and beat him up without saying a word.

He was caught off guard and was almost beaten to death.

He went back home at dawn and dusk and did nothing but get some medicine and was scolded by his parents.

What’s even more infuriating is!

It was he who suggested returning to Beijing!

Chu Yi said angrily, "I don't care, you are half my son, and you must recognize me as your godfather in the future!"

Shen Tang was suffering from severe morning sickness and she asked after Xie Guimo almost every day. One day, she received a letter from Xie Guimo saying, "I know I was wrong. Can you please stop scolding me? Sneezing every day is really affecting my prestige."

Shen Tang, "..."

When the baby in her belly was five months old, Shen Tang received a letter from Xie Guimo, which brought tears to her eyes.

The morale of the Great Qi was high, and the Western Liang was defeated step by step. The Western Liang could hardly hold on any longer and should be able to return to the capital soon.

Barely half a month after I received this letter from home, good news arrived from the border.

Da Qi won a great victory and Xiliang asked for peace.

When the news reached the capital, the whole city was in an uproar and the emperor was very pleased.

All that remained was for Xiliang to send envoys to Daqi for peace talks, and for the prince to return to the capital with his army after settling border affairs.

When Xie Guimo returned to Beijing, Shen Tang was already more than seven months pregnant.

Looking at Shen Tang's bulging belly, a certain gentleman had a face full of resentment.

Even worse, the Emperor held a banquet in the palace to celebrate the success of the prince and his men, and even mentioned Xie Guimo, "The Crown Princess is honest and did not hide the fact that you sneaked back to the capital."

Everyone was holding back their internal injuries.

Shen Tang's face flushed red, and he wished he could crawl into the ground right there.

If she had known this earlier, she would not have gone to the palace to attend the celebration banquet.

She reached out and pinched Xie Guimo's waist, causing his forehead to tremble in pain.

The generals laughed so hard that their shoulders shook.

The Prince of Jingyang is so brave and good at fighting on the battlefield, but unexpectedly he is also a henpecked man.

Less than two months later, Shen Tang gave birth to another son.

This time the birth happened quickly and I didn't suffer much.

After giving birth to the child, Shen Tang looked at Xie Guimo and said, "Can I not have children in the future?"

Someone said, "Even if you want to have a baby, I won't let you."

Shen Tang, "..."
