As soon as the prince's case was concluded, Emperor Meng asked the cabinet to draw up an imperial decree in a blink of an eye, and the jade seal was firmly established. The next day, the happy event of Beimeng and the Heqin tribe's marriage was announced to the world.Princess Yong'an was still grounded, and when she learned of this, she ignored Emperor Meng's order and rushed to the imperial court crying, begging her father to forgive her.At this time, Emperor Meng was playing hide-and-seek with Princess Fule in the courtyard with Mrs. Wei. This scene of family happiness deeply hurt Princess Yong'an's heart.

That day, Princess Yong'an seemed to be going crazy, disregarding her status, yelling at Princess Fule, Mrs. Wei, and even Emperor Meng. Her words were extremely ugly, and it scared Concubine Jing, who had just arrived as a concubine, after hearing the news.

Now Wanxin, who is the most favored in the Sixth Palace, usually coaxes Emperor Meng, and occasionally plays a small temper, but it is just to add some fun to the room.Emperor Meng had never seen such a street shrew before, he was furious on the spot, and slapped Princess Yong'an on the face, immediately Princess Yong'an's cheeks were swollen, and she was beaten so hard that she couldn't find her.

"Put the princess up for me, and let the nanny strictly discipline her. Concubine Jing, if there is a next time, she will be severely punished." Emperor Meng stood with his hands behind his back, looking coldly at Princess Yong'an who was held up by the nanny.

Princess Yong'an didn't expect this to happen, let alone that she would lose control. Her tears dripped down, and she murmured: "Father, do you want your son?"

Princess Fule was protected and raised since she was a child. Where has she seen such Emperor Meng? In her eyes, the palace has always been a loving father and brother, so she grabbed Emperor Meng's sleeve in fear and whispered: "Father?"

Emperor Meng stroked Princess Fule's forehead hair, and gently pushed Princess Fule's back, "I just wanted to eat some snacks, so I still don't want to go."

Princess Fule was still a child at heart, and immediately entered the palace happily with Mrs. Wei. When she left, she looked back at Princess Yong'an and found that she was looking at him fiercely. Princess Fule hid under Mrs. Wei's arms and followed into the house.

After Princess Fule entered the palace, Emperor Meng immediately withdrew his loving gaze, looked at Princess Yong'an coldly, and said indifferently: "Yuning, even if you die, your corpse will have to be married to He Qin."

"Father, I am also your daughter." Princess Yong'an screamed mournfully, and the crow in the corner was frightened by her cry, screamed hoarsely, and flew away with wings.

Emperor Meng flicked his arms, turned around and walked into Yongkang Palace without another word.

After the news spread to Ji's family, there was a long silence. The ending of the princess's marriage was predictable, and she had to die or leave. Even if Beimeng annexed the Heqin tribe in the future, and Princess Yong'an returned to the capital, it was only a superficial appeasement. Many will marry unfavorable court officials and noble families, and more will be accompanied by the ancient Qingdeng Buddha.

After a long silence, Xu Sheng bowed to Li Ru, and asked lightly, "Does Eunuch Li know when the princess will marry far away?"

Li Ru saw that he was polite, and returned the gift with sincerity, "It will be scheduled in half a month."

Xu Sheng was still courteous, "Thank you, Eunuch."

"Uncle Guo beat me, you know that my mother is not in good health, and this matter should not be brought out." Li Ru leaned into Xu Sheng's ear, and whispered: "My mother is sorry for Princess Yong'an's far away marriage, and wants to give her away. But I have no strength to do it, so I want to ask Uncle Guo to do it for me."

Xu Sheng glanced at the big box behind Li Ru, and nodded clearly, "Major, please rest assured, the princess's marriage is a grand event, and makeup should be added."

Ji Sushan personally sent Li Ru out of Ji's house. The people in the house seemed to have a good heart, and no one wanted to see the treasures in the box. Ji Sushan directly asked people to carry the two big boxes into the small warehouse in the courtyard. After half a month, they sent them to the outskirts of the city to finish the work .

The weather in the Huangmei rainy season was hot and humid, and the day when Princess Yong'an married away was dark and gloomy. The people were afraid of sudden thunderstorms, so they seldom came out to watch the excitement.Only the common people living on both sides of Central Avenue would open their windows and look at them when they heard Shiliu carrying a sedan chair pass by.

The road was very cold, there were not many relatives and nobles who came to see him off, and there were very few court officials. Among these people, only Concubine Jing, who was allowed out of the palace, cried the most sincerely.Princess Yong'an was famous for being bitter and mean in the palace, and her relationship with her brothers and sisters was not very good, so everyone looked at her with a bridal sedan chair out of Zhaoxingmen with cold eyes.

In contrast, Xu Sheng's eyebrows and eyes were gloomy, and he looked at the bridal sedan chair going away sympathetically, and his heart was full of emotion.

Huai Mingmo was also not in a good mood, his chest seemed to be stuffy due to the rainy season, he couldn't breathe very uncomfortable, he tugged on Xu Sheng's sleeves, "The things are delivered, let's go."

Xu Sheng nodded without saying a word, the two quietly went down the tower, and met Meng Qingrun and the others who were walking together.

After Meng Guangheng's death, it seemed that the relationship between the princes had improved a lot. Meng Yinghuan gradually got closer to Meng Qingrun and the others. The other princes who had been hiding in the mansion all day would also come out to walk around from time to time.Moreover, Emperor Meng became more and more loving to his sons, and no longer favored one over another.

From this point of view, it seems that Meng Guangheng's death deserves more than guilt, but everyone knows in the bottom of their hearts that Meng Guangheng's death is the fire that ignited the flames, and the subsequent seizure of the heir apparent will become even more dangerous, because everyone is on the same line, and no one is better than the other.

Meng Qingrun and Meng Yinghuan are the most popular now, seeing that they are very polite to Xu Sheng, everyone also bowed to Xu Sheng and nodded.

"Where is Mr. Xu going?" Meng Qingrun followed Xu Sheng's footsteps, deliberately pushing Meng Yinghuan out.

Meng Xiuran followed closely, and said with concern: "I heard that Concubine Wan was unwell earlier, but is she okay now?"

The footsteps suddenly felt like a heavy weight, Xu Sheng said with a smile: "It's okay, it will be fine after a period of recuperation, but she is pregnant recently, she seems to be particularly lethargic, it's okay to think about it."

The demeanors of the few here are normal after hearing the words, but the expressions of the unfavored princes not far away have changed drastically. The children born to the concubine, even if they are much younger than themselves, are much older than themselves in terms of chances .So for a while there was a look of envy, but these unfavorable people in his family were used to being bullied, so they couldn't do harm, more precisely, they didn't dare at all.

"It's still early, Mr. Xu, would you like to sit with me?" Meng Qingrun asked with a smile, but actually helped Xu Sheng block Meng Yinghuan.

Xu Sheng resolutely refused, and said with a smile: "I still have to go to the palace to feel the pulse of Concubine Wan."

Meng Qingrun and Xu Sheng looked at each other, then turned to let the boy in the mansion pull his carriage, "Your Majesty's body is important, hurry up."

Xu Sheng glanced at Meng Yinghuan, and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

Not long after the carriage entered the palace, the thunderstorm that had been suffocating for a long time poured down, Xu Sheng got off the carriage outside Yuehua Gate as usual, the heavy rain was so heavy that it blocked people's sight two feet away.

Xu Sheng and Huai Mingmo had no choice but to stay under the palace gate to hide from the rain, barely able to block the rain.After waiting for about half a moment without seeing the rain stop, the two of them were hesitating whether to go to Ruxi Palace in the rain, Li Ru came in time, followed by two sedan chairs, the umbrella in Li Ru's hand was almost useless, he shouted Ask two people to get on the sedan chair and order them to get up immediately.

The torrential rain shattered the flowers and leaves in the Ruxi palace, and the palace looked a little messy, as if no one had taken care of it for a long time.

The silence in the hall made one feel lonely, Li Ru changed into dry clothes, and led the two of them to the sleeping hall.Bursts of medicinal fragrance filled the room, as if silently telling that the master in the palace was seriously ill.

The newly exchanged grand maid was very honest in her work, when she saw Li Ru enter the room, she put her finger on her lips and said softly, "Your Majesty is still asleep."

Xu Sheng waved his hand to tell the big court lady not to be too polite, and walked to the side of the couch lightly, his brows and eyes hard to get rid of, he gave Wan Xin a pulse as usual, and took the opportunity to use his internal force to force out the poison that was swimming towards Wan Xin's heart.

"Your Majesty has been very lethargic lately. When the Emperor came, I saw Your Majesty sleeping peacefully. I was very worried." Li Ru tentatively said.

"Women sleep better when they are in the early stages of pregnancy. Besides, the mother has just lost her vitality, so it's normal to like to sleep. Eunuch Li doesn't have to worry."

Huai Mingmo nodded and said, "What did the imperial doctor say?"

Li Ru took people to the side hall to rest, and let the little maids watch tea and deliver snacks. After making arrangements, he said: "They also said the same, but after the empress was poisoned, the emperor didn't believe them very much. Now that the uncle of the country is like this Said, that slave will go back and report the truth, so that the emperor can feel at ease."

Xu Sheng nodded with no abnormality on his face, and said with confidence: "Your Majesty, it will be fine after a year or so of recuperation, and Eunuch Li will just tell the truth when he sees the Emperor."

If Xu Sheng was sure again, Li Ru's face became a little happy, and he talked with them for a while.The little maid from the other side of the hall came to report in a hurry. Concubine Wan woke up and wanted to see Xu Sheng.

Wanxin has been in a dream for half a month, and after waking up, she also felt that many things seemed unreal. When she saw Xu Sheng and Huai Mingmo, she showed a rare smile, "How long has my brother been here? Seeing how sleepy I am, I don't know what to do." Didn't notice."

"Your Majesty is pregnant with a dragon fetus, you should rest more." Sitting beside him, Huai Mingmo smiled and patted Xu Sheng secretly.

Xu Sheng gave Wan Xin a soft pillow to make her feel more comfortable, and Concubine Choi Wan loved to laugh and said with a smile: "I just had a pulse diagnosis, and the child's pregnancy looks very good."

Hearing this, Wan Xin lowered her eyes and touched her lower abdomen, her whole body exuded the unique brilliance of being a mother, with a hint of hope in her eyes, she said with a smile: "Brother said he is a prince or a princess."

"It's all good." Xu Sheng looked at her expectant look, and the tip of his nose was a little sore.

Wan Xin pressed her palms carefully to her belly, for fear of hurting the unformed child, her smile faded, and she said flatly, "You should still be a prince."

Huai Mingmo knew that Wan Xin was thinking about Princess Yong'an, so he laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if you are male or female, after giving birth to a princess, you will definitely be the same as Princess Fule, so don't worry."

Perhaps because of being a mother, Wan Xin thought of the young child in the palace, and immediately smiled, "The emperor also said that if she gave birth to a princess, let her go, and when she grows up, find her an honest son-in-law in Beijing. And Just let the son-in-law stay in Beijing, lest the emperor be far away and bully the princess."

Before she finished speaking, the corner of Wan Xin's mouth twitched suddenly, she was a little speechless, she pondered for a while and said in a low voice: "I can see the princess wearing a phoenix crown and Xia Pei to marry outside."

Xu Sheng was speechless for a moment, speechless.

Wan Xin turned her head to stare at Xu Sheng, and asked again: "Can I survive until the baby is born safely? I just want to see the baby, is that okay?"

There were tears in the beautiful eyes, which made people feel very distressed. Huai Mingmo couldn't see it, but he only heard the expectant voice, and his heart felt uncomfortable.

There was no one else in the hall, Huai Mingmo presumptuously stretched out his hand to lightly grasp Wan Xin's hand, and comforted him: "Yes, your brother is developing an antidote for you. Brother Huai promises you that you will see the child make a sound safely, There will be many descendants in the future, I am afraid that it will be too late for you to dislike it."

Although Wanxin knew that these were comforting words, she still chuckled out of the picture of her children and grandchildren entwined around her knees, "I think so, the scourge will last for a thousand years. Everyone scolds me as a demon concubine, how can there be such a short-lived demon concubine. "

Xu Sheng took out a pill from his sleeve, and ordered the maid to pour a cup of warm water, mix it with water and dissolve it, and feed Wan Xin to drink it slowly, "This can temporarily suppress the onset of drunkenness and dreams, and I will enter the palace every five days from now on. Wu I have seen the anti-fetal medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor, it is a very good prescription, you can take it with peace of mind, but remember, except for the medicine sent by Qiuxi, don't drink other medicines."

Wan Xin tucked away the medicine stains on the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, and said with a puzzled expression, "The people in Hehuan Zhai in the palace have been wiped out, haven't they?"

Xu Sheng smiled lightly and rubbed Wan Wan's heart and hair, there was indescribable tenderness in his eyes, "Silly girl, there are more sinister people in the world than He Huan Zhai. Now that you are pregnant with a dragon fetus, I want to swallow you alive so much Go, you, grow your mind, so that you can watch your little princess get married."

"I know." Wan Xin saw a bunch of dilapidated nanmu skewers by the bed, her expression darkened, she stretched out her hand and squeezed it into her own hand, her eyes filled with incomparable attachment, "Hasn't Lian Xin Hui Ji caught it yet?" Waiting for Xu Sheng Answering, she sighed: "Is he really the prince who was stolen out of the palace?"

Huai Mingmo was quite shocked when he first learned about Wan Xin's intentions, and in private, he also lamented the tricks of fate, and scolded the amorous son for being confused.

"Yes, he should be the real fourth prince." Xu Sheng sighed and said, "Don't think about it, I'm the one responsible for Lianxin Huiji's affairs, and I won't let her hurt you and the child."

"En." Wan Xin nodded with a smile, and looked sideways out of the window.

The moisture outside was still heavy, but it was not as dull as before.

The sound of rain and thunder has not stopped for a long time, and the torrential rain seems to have fallen on purpose, trying to wash away the sorrow in the world and the ugliness in people's hearts.It has been raining for nearly ten days, and it stops occasionally, but it only lasts for half an hour.
