Jiang Mengzhen's tone and meaning mean that the person who kissed her that day was a man. She had always heard that the people of the Moon Never Setting Empire were quite enthusiastic and open about this kind of thing, but she didn't expect it to be such an open law.

She hurriedly squeezed out a bitter smile: "Whether it's a man or a woman, it's just as annoying to kiss others casually." Otherwise, after ten days, when they send their courtiers to court, I will take sick leave and avoid them? Since it was a prince and princess visiting, it shouldn't be a long time coming. ”

There are not only two heirs in the Moon Empire, if they stay abroad for a long time, their power at home will also be suppressed by others.

Jiang Mengzhen saw her nervous appearance, but his expression softened, and he was not so angry in his heart. After all, Hao Cheng is also a disaster, she has been doing very well, he is a husband, of course, he can't go too far, lest Hao Cheng and him get separated, but cheapen others in vain.

He said very understandingly: "This has nothing to do with you, and there is no need to avoid it too deliberately." After all, it's a state affair, and it's not good if you lie about being sick. It's just that the thought of a man coveting you makes me a little uncomfortable. ”

If Zhu Qing was here, he would definitely be unable to stop slandering his master, and if he was a little uncomfortable, he wouldn't know what words to use to describe the anger of thunder.

However, when Jiang Mengzhen first saw those materials, he would definitely not say it in front of Hao Cheng.

Pretending to be sick and not going to the court, Hao Cheng actually mentioned it casually, and the feasibility was not very high. But Jiang Mengzhen was so considerate and generous, she was still a little surprised.

She rubbed her husband's face, and said with a touched face: "I know that my husband is the best for me, but what moon does not fall on the prince of the empire." Could it be that we are thinking too much, after all, he is a prince, and he may not be able to take a fancy to me, a petty official of the Jin Kingdom. ”

"And I'm married, and the whole court knows about it. The prince probably didn't know, and if he did, he would have regretted kissing me. ”

This is not because she has low self-esteem, but after weighing the conditions of the two people, she does not look so earth-shatteringly beautiful, and she does not have the aura of the heroine who is loved by everyone, no matter how you look at it, it is just a temporary idea of the prince on a whim.

Jiang Mengzhen saw the problem much more deeply than Hao Cheng, and he made all the bad plans: "Then if he really fell in love with you at first sight, and asked His Majesty to give you to him in the court!" ”

"Then Your Majesty won't agree to it, will you?!" Hao Cheng said this a little uncertainly, mainly because Zhang Shilang of the Ministry of Rites said that this time the Moon does not fall on the empire, it is really very strong, the Jin Kingdom, and the current emperor is a conservative, and he is not willing to provoke too much right and wrong.

She is just a very light courtier in the eyes of the emperor, and Jiang Mengzhen is nothing to the emperor. If the other party wants to ask for her, His Majesty the Emperor may really want to sell her.

Hao Cheng said with a sad face: "Then what should I do?" If Your Majesty insists on sending me out, the king's order cannot be violated. I was sick at home that day. It's a big deal to flush ice water on my body a few times, if I'm really sick, the court won't be able to take me. ”

If that is the case, she will definitely not be willing to do it according to the will of the Holy Decree, but if she dares to disobey the will, the whole family will have to be buried with her.

Thinking of the dilemma I had seen on TV in my previous life, Hao Cheng had an idea: "Let's not think in a pessimistic direction, if it really comes to that time, I will pretend to be crazy, a foreign prince will definitely not be able to ask a crazy woman to be his wife." ”

She wants to make a career and rise all the way, and her original intention is nothing more than to let her family have a better life. There is no reason to lose the people you really value for the sake of official positions.

The women around Jiang Mengzhen have always put their careers first, and he has also seen many women who are rich or married. Even if these people had a mediocre career at the beginning and had no pursuits, after coming into contact with the so-called upper class, they began to climb up with all their might, and gradually forgot their original intentions.

Hao Cheng was reluctant at first, but she was willing to work hard, and her luck has always been good, and she was promoted quickly in the officialdom. He was originally worried that the other party would be blinded by the glitz, but he didn't expect her to never forget her original intention.

Somehow, his eyes were a little moist, his eyelashes were lowered at the moment, and his voice unconsciously softened a little: "The wife doesn't need to wronged herself like this, you are right, maybe we think too much." And even if that person has other plans, we have other methods, and we definitely can't make the wife pretend to be crazy and stupid. ”

The posture of the two people was that Jiang Mengzhen was sitting on the only Taishi chair in the room, and Hao Cheng was standing the whole time, and there was only a distance of less than three inches between the two people.

After speaking, he suddenly hugged his wife's waist and put his face on her waist: "Let's not mention these troubles." ”

He still wasn't going to tell Hao Cheng about the information, he would solve the matter anyway, so as not to worry about her.

Faced with Jiang Meng's true dependence, Hao Cheng's heart turned into a puddle of water, she bent down and kissed her husband's forehead very gently: "Listen to you, today is such a happy day, let's not talk about these bad things." You're tired today, I'll carry you to bed to rest. ”

After saying that, she picked up Jiang Mengzhen carefully, it was not very heavy. Although Jiang Mengzhen's belly is getting bigger and bigger day by day, his weight doesn't seem to have changed from before.

When she got to the bed, she took off Jiang Mengzhen's shoes and began to massage her. The pregnant husband was really very hard, although Jiang Mengzhen's reaction in the later period was not particularly strong, but his calves were swollen every day, like a thick and white radish.

Thinking of the child, Hao Cheng casually asked: "The doctor said that the child will be born in a few months?" ”

Jiang Mengzhen lowered her head, looked at the top of her jet-black head and the whirl of her hair in the center, and responded, "There are still about three and a half months." ”

Although it is said that the baby is conceived in October, the time that the fetus stays in the mother's womb is only nine months at most.

Hao Cheng muttered, because the voice was very small, Jiang Mengzhen didn't hear it clearly: "What did you just say?" ”

"I was thinking that the doctor who diagnosed you at the beginning was a quack doctor at all, so once we got married, it would only be a little more than half a year. You have a child in half a year, where can it be said that it is difficult to have an heir. ”

She thought it would take at least four or five years, but the child came so quickly! So much so that she was not very prepared for it.

Jiang Mengzhen didn't speak, compared to other men who could easily conceive a child, he had already made a lot of efforts. Whether it is taking medicine to regulate his body or other aspects, he has paid a lot.

And the doctor also said that according to his current age, if he gives birth to this child, he will not get pregnant again for at least a few years.

A few years later, he was in his thirties, and the possibility of pregnancy was already very low at that time, but it was difficult to have children.

Seeing Jiang Mengzhen's eyelashes hanging and his expression a little depressed, Hao Cheng hurriedly kissed him on the mouth and changed the topic: "Okay, okay, let's stop talking about these things, let's talk about happy things." ”

"If the baby is born, have you thought about what to name her?"

Jiang Mengzhen looked straight at her, then shook his head.

"Then let's just think about this, what's the name of Jiang?"

Jiang Mengzhen said: "Why do you follow my surname?" It should be surnamed Hao Cai, and you dislike her before the child is born? ”

In the Jin Kingdom, only if the woman is rich or the woman does not recognize the child, the child will follow the father's surname.

Hao Cheng is actually a child with his father's surname for more than 20 years of education in his previous life, and he didn't turn a corner for a while.

Busy said: "How can I think so, it's just that I think the surname Jiang is better." You see how difficult it is to choose a name with the surname Hao, such as Hao Mei and the like, there is a sense of two feelings, and it sounds very narcissistic. ”

She actually doesn't like her own name very much, so heavy! For her in her previous life, girls hate others saying that they are fat, and the name Hao Cheng sounds like mocking her for being a fat person and accompanying her with a vicious curse for life.

Jiang Mengzhen didn't understand what the word Zhonger meant in her mouth, but that didn't prevent him from understanding that it was a not very good word.

He frowned and said, "Hao is not good at choosing a name, Hao Bin, Hao Meng I think they are all very good names." ”

Hao Cheng was interested: "Then think about a few more!" One for boys and one for girls. Our children should give it the best name in the world. ”

As soon as he talked about the child, Jiang Mengzhen no longer thought about the terrible prince of the Moon Never Falling Empire, and the topic was successfully diverted.

The wife and husband discussed the names for a night, until Jiang Mengzhen reached the usual sleep time, and he couldn't hold back and fell asleep.

Hao Cheng thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a nice and easy-to-write name, and said excitedly to his husband: "Meng Zhen." A good name comes to mind. ”

After she finished speaking, there was no response, and when she looked down, Jiang Mengzhen had already fallen asleep with her eyes closed, and her breathing became soft and long.

Hao Cheng immediately stopped his mouth, looked at his quiet sleeping face for a long time, gently lifted his scattered forehead hair, dropped a kiss on his smooth and white forehead, and then whispered in Jiang Mengzhen's ear: "Good night." ”

Jiang Mengzhen slept, but Hao Cheng still couldn't sleep, and was still thinking about the name of the baby before going to bed, but she thought about it a lot and denied herself one by one.

As a result, when she finally fell asleep, she actually had a nightmare, dreaming that there was an extra crib in the room where she and Jiang Mengzhen lived, and there was a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes on the bed, and she was crying, crying so much that she felt very uncomfortable.

She walked over, trying to shake the small bed and coax the child, but the baby walked over with a small body and a big head, and cried to her with the mature face of her previous life: "Mother, I don't want to be called Hao Da, I don't want to be called Hao Da!" ”

The magic sound pierced her ears, which scared her awake, and she was shocked into a cold sweat, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Jiang Mengzhen, who was awakened by her, straighten up and asked her with concern: "What's wrong with you?" Are you scared by nightmares? ”

Hao Cheng wiped the cold sweat on his forehead: "It's nothing, I just dreamed that the baby was born, and she didn't like the name I gave him, so she kept crying." She cried so much that I was woken up. ”

It's just that I had a not very wonderful dream, Jiang Meng really responded, but he didn't feel at ease. Because he took several days off, Hao Cheng didn't go anywhere, so he stayed at home with his husband.

first tied his hair and changed his clothes, massaged his legs due to pregnancy edema, and helped Jiang Mengzhen's growing belly to apply lubricating oil, so as not to grow unsightly pregnancy marks on his head.

A series of things were done, and the time was not early, the people prepared a breakfast with a light taste and suitable for the pregnant man, Hao Cheng took the initiative to hold the chopsticks and sent a mouthful of food to Jiang Mengzhen's mouth.

Lunch was still four dishes and one soup, but Hao Cheng went to the kitchen to fry two dishes, Jiang Mengzhen couldn't stand the smell of oil smoke during pregnancy, Hao Cheng asked him to sit outside and wait, let Zhu Qing accompany him next to him, and when she came out, she changed out of her clothes with the smell of oil smoke and ate with him.

After the meal, the two of them walked hand in hand in the breezy courtyard for a while, and Hao Cheng cooperated with his pace and deliberately slowed down his steps.

After walking for half an hour, according to Jiang Mengzhen's law, sleep is a nap. As long as you go to Hanlin Temple, you basically leave in the morning and come back in the evening. It can be said that since he has an official position on his shoulders, Hao Cheng has rarely had time to take a nap with Jiang Mengzhen.

The two of them changed into comfortable and loose clothes, Hao Cheng sat on the inside of the bed, Jiang Mengzhen slept on the Li side, lying flat on the bed, and his head rested on Hao Cheng's strong and powerful thighs.

Hao Cheng held the book in his hand, and while pressing Jiang Mengzhen's bulging belly with his hand, he slowed down his speech and told the story to the child in his belly in a gentle and affectionate tone.

There is no feeling that my heart is pounding every minute and every second, but this kind of warm and dense feeling that cannot be dissolved very much relaxes Hao Cheng's nerves that are tense because of things in the officialdom.

But she had only spent a day of leisure, and someone knocked on their door early in the morning. This will not be the unlucky Zhang Shilang, but a gentleman of the Hanlin Academy.

Seeing Hao Cheng, she first saluted, and then said bluntly: "Didn't you take leave in the household department before, but tomorrow the envoy group will come to the court, and whoever has a seventh-rank official rank or above, the Hanlin Academy will let the students come to inform the adults." ”

Hao Cheng's face showed surprise: "Why come to the court tomorrow, didn't you say nine days later?" ”

"That was before, it seemed to say that the people who don't set the moon have urgent matters and can't delay it for too long, so I asked the Ministry of Rites to change the date, and Your Majesty agreed." Na Ji Shi swallowed his saliva and said a little nervously, "In order to ensure that you have been notified, please write me a note, and the student will have to go back to his life." ”

After all, she was just here to inform, although the notification was bad news, Hao Cheng didn't want to embarrass her, she wrote a note according to the other party's request and gave it out.

When you send people out, your face falls. Jiang Mengzhen asked her what was wrong, and she reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth, but no matter how she looked at it, she was smiling bitterly.

When Jiang Mengzhen asked for the second time, she said: "The person who came is from the Hanlin Academy, and said that there will be a state banquet to receive the envoys tomorrow, and all civil and military officials can arrive, so I will also go over tomorrow." ”

Anyway, she will definitely have to leave tomorrow, rather than holding back and letting Jiang Mengzhen think nonsense, it is better to take the initiative to be honest.

Jiang Mengzhen's reaction was calmer than her, after all, he learned the news earlier than Hao Cheng: "Then let's go, it's just a banquet, remember to come back early after attending." ”

Hao Cheng kissed him on the cheek, as if this would soothe him and herself, and she solemnly assured him: "I will, I will definitely come back soon." ”

Because of this sudden bad news, she was in a bad mood for the rest of the day. Write a few sentences casually, and they are also full of negative emotions. However, in front of Jiang Mengzhen, she still restrained her emotions very well and did not let her uneasiness spread to her husband. You must know that Jiang Mengzhen is still pregnant, he regards this child as so important, she must also protect him and the child.

By the next day, Hao Cheng was slowly getting dressed, and it seemed that if he went out late, he would be able to see the tattered envoys in a few minutes.

It was Jiang Mengzhen who arranged her collar for her and patted her on the shoulder: "Go early, if you are late, you will leave a bad impression in front of Your Majesty." ”

His reaction was so calm, which made Hao Cheng feel very worried. I couldn't eat a breakfast, so I barely drank a small bowl of porridge.

As he left, the sky was slightly white, and only the morning sun in the east was tinted with a little glow in the clouds. Jiang Mengzhen stood at the door of the mansion to see her off, Hao Cheng looked at him, wanted to speak and stopped, and finally didn't say anything, turned around and left.

She turned around and took a step, and Jiang Mengzhen stopped her. Hao Cheng immediately turned around, walked up to Jiang Mengzhen in two steps and one step at a time, and asked a little nervously, "What's wrong, what's going on?" ”

Jiang Mengzhen shook his head, stood on tiptoe and printed a light kiss on her lips, this was the first time since he got married that he took the initiative to kiss her outside: "Don't do anything out of the ordinary, just come back safely." ”

Hao Cheng nodded heavily, and walked back to the carriage step by step, the coachwoman really couldn't look at her turtle speed, pressed her until she got into the carriage, and began to ride the horse and whip.

As soon as Hao Cheng's carriage left Jiang Mengzhen's sight, Jiang Mengzhen got into the following carriage with the support of Zhu Qing, and ordered in a calm tone: "Go to the Changping Marquis Mansion." 166 Reading Network
