Chapter 103: Giving birth to a boy and a girl

That night, on the beheading platform at the entrance of the vegetable market, a burst of fire suddenly broke out, and the fire was unknown. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info only knew that from a long distance he could smell a strong smell of wine and charred corpses, burning the more than 20 assassins who were beheaded during the day beyond recognition. People didn't pay attention to it, but after watching the excitement, they went home. Perhaps tomorrow, there will be another rumor in the market that the Assassins are so sinful that they will be turned into ashes after death, and they will not be able to leave a whole corpse, and they will not be able to reincarnate in the next life. Because those whose bones are broken and scattered, whose souls are blown away by the wind, cannot go to hell.

In the Ji family's Compassion Garden, Mrs. Ji sat in the first place, next to her sat Ji Gangyang, the old man of the Ji family, and sat his son Ji Boyuan.

Ji Gangyang recounted everything that happened on Beiwu Street today. After hearing this, the old lady said, "In your opinion, what does the emperor mean?" ”

The son thought that the assassin was real. But the emperor wants to count all the rumors on their heads, and I don't know if he really believes that they are the ones who create rumors? ”

"I always felt that the emperor was deceiving us, and he knew in his heart that those rumors were not spread by the assassins, but he wanted to save Concubine Li, so he deducted the blame on their heads by the way. It seems that he really cares about Concubine Li. ”

The father and son in the hall nodded in agreement, because they knew too well where the source of this rumor came from. Ji Boyuan said: "If the emperor doesn't believe that the assassin is the culprit, then will he still send someone to investigate, will he find out to us?" ”

The three of them gradually fell into deep thought, and Ji Gangyang said, "Oh, that's right, mother. After returning to the palace today, the emperor specially left me and said something. ”

"What did the emperor tell you?"

"The emperor just said, thank you for giving birth to two good daughters, but the palms and backs of these hands are all meat, which side is hurt, it hurts your own hands. The back of the hand is injured, and the palm of the hand can't be left alone, isn't it also implicated? After Ji Gangyang finished speaking, he looked at his mother and said: "I think that the emperor should know that the rumors were spread by us, but he didn't dare to touch us, so he tied Concubine Xian and Concubine Li together, one has something, and the other can't get out." ”

The old lady nodded and said, "Now that his wings have gradually plumped, he naturally no longer takes us seriously." If we hadn't been able to get him a large amount of military salaries, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been so polite to us at this moment. ”

Ji Boyuan agreed: "What the old lady said is that now he even dares to move the Guo family, and the Queen Mother has gradually lost his trust and respect. Once the Queen Mother and the Guo family fall, it will be up to us next. Now that the emperor has come forward to warn us, Sun Er thinks that Concubine Li, we should not spend any more energy, we can only wait for the opportunity! ”

"That's right, the emperor arranged Concubine Xian and Concubine Li together, just to let Concubine Xian be a shield, so that we don't dare to release arrows easily. In that case, let's not shoot that arrow first, and Concubine Li won't be able to run anyway. It's Concubine Xian, he and Longzi are the most important. ”

Ji Boyuan hesitated for a while, but still mentioned, "But the old lady, the grandson is still worried, what if the concubine is a princess?" ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a tense silence in the hall. Yes, if Concubine Xian's birth is a woman, then what bargaining chips do they have to take the back position, the Ji family can't be hooked with the back position, then the Ji family will lose an important barrier in the eyes of the emperor. It is not easy for the emperor to dispose of a prince's grandfather's family, but it is too simple to dispose of a concubine's maiden family.

The first child is not allowed to be male, the second child has been waiting for too long, and there are many dreams at night, who knows what will happen at that time?

The old lady's folded hands couldn't help but clench, and said in a deep voice: "Boyuan reminds us that we must know whether Concubine Xian's baby is male or female, if it is a male fetus, we will naturally be happy, but if it is a female fetus, then we have to reconstruct." ”

Ji Gangyang said: "This is easy to do, find an imperial doctor, just remind me secretly, I'm afraid that the imperial doctor won't say anything." "The object of the imperial doctor's treatment in the palace is either the queen mother and the emperor, or the concubines, princesses, princesses. These people, their identities are extremely noble, and they each involve their own families, if they are not careful, say one more word, or make one more expression, it will be a matter of losing the head of the whole family. Therefore, in order to protect himself, the imperial doctor has always acquiesced to saying that he doesn't know what others ask, otherwise he should not embarrass him, he also has a family to support.

Ji Boyuan said tentatively: "Father, don't forget, there is a person who understands medical skills by the side of Concubine Xian. ”

"You mean Concubine Li?"

"Yes, we can know about this matter through Concubine Li."

"But Concubine Li, she may not tell us!"

The old lady's eyes were cold, and she said in a deep voice: "Let Ting'er go, maybe he can know." ”

Ji Gangyang nodded, Moyu and Ting'er have a good relationship, maybe he can really know. But she was still a little worried, "Ting'er is a good candidate, I'm afraid, Concubine Li won't even say Ting'er." And Ting'er has not been with us until now, will it be bad if he goes. ”

"With Moyu's character, at most, she won't go around shouting people."

Ji Boyuan nodded and agreed: "What the old lady said is that even if Concubine Li doesn't say whether this child is a man or a woman, she won't be a person who talks nonsense everywhere." The grandson went to tell him and asked him to enter the palace tomorrow. ”

So, on the second day, in the Jade Immortal Palace, two guests were ushered in, Ji Zhongting and Liu Yeqing. Liu Yeqing didn't enter the palace at first, but Ji Zhongting still remembered that Moyu said last time that her medicine would have to be changed after a month, and her sister-in-law didn't enter the palace recently. Since he is here, it is better to come by the way, Liu Yeqing nodded, about the child's matter, any woman wants to care.

Now there are four Ji family members gathered in the Jade Immortal Palace, and the family is happy, but it is very lively.

Mo Yu finished checking Liu Yeqing's pulse, and said with a smile: "It's not bad, I'll give you some other medicine, once a day in the morning and evening, and drink it all the time, and if you drink it for a year and a half, it is estimated that it will be about the same." Pay attention to keep warm on weekdays, even if people wear a tulle, you have to wear a cape, because your physique is different from ordinary people. Matters related to your own happiness, face or something, you can put it aside for a while. ”

Liu Yeqing bowed his head slightly and said, "Thank you Niangniang, the concubine is grateful." ”

Ji Feicui raised the corners of her mouth on the side, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law doesn't need to thank her, this is her duty as a husband." ”

Since she lived in the Jade Immortal Palace, although she was very afraid of Moyu on the surface, she secretly didn't know how many times she had been a stumbling block, and there were needles hidden in her speech. Sometimes, Moyu drank porridge, drank and drank, and would drink a red pepper. Sometimes when I wake up in the morning, I can't find a comb for my shoes. Sometimes the book I read suddenly has a few pages missing, or sometimes I touch a teacup and feel like oil is whirring in my hand. Anyway, this kind of thing, Bajiu is inseparable from Ji Feicui, no, she did it out of ten, and she is the only one who is the most boring in this Jade Immortal Palace.

Mo Yu said lazily: "It's not my duty to do this kind of thing, so you shouldn't take it for granted that this is what I should do." Since you're too bored all day, why don't you learn medicine from me, so that you can better stumble on me. ”

"Cut, I make the stumbling and use you to teach?" Ji Feiyu pursed her mouth indifferently, but after she finished speaking, she immediately reacted and said, "You are talking nonsense, when did this palace stumble you?" ”

"Oh, that's my girl's sloppiness in doing things, last night, when the emperor came here to drink tea, he asked me wonderingly, is the Jade Immortal Palace too poor, and even has to use a kerosene cup to drink tea."

Ji Zhongting looked at the scene of the three women in front of him and was very depressed. I occasionally heard Mo Yu say what kerosene bowl, and asked curiously: "Sister, do you drink tea with kerosene bowls?" Aren't there candles lit in this house? When did you become frugal enough to use kerosene? ”

Mo Yu glanced at Ji Feiyu and said faintly: "Someone's ten fingers don't touch the spring, and he can't even tell the difference between a cup of kerosene and a cup of tea." This morning, Biyue asked me wonderingly, is there a mouse in this Jade Immortal Palace, why is there a lot less oil in the kitchen? ”

"Ah, and the rats, then we have to have the house cleaned well, lest it bite its ears in the middle of the night." In this hall, who is not a smart person, as soon as Mo Yu said this, he understood everything.

Ji Feiyu "patted", stood up, pointed at Moyu and shouted: "Ji Moyu, you don't have to insinuate. It's what this palace does.,What can you do with me.,Hmph.。 ”

The three of them watched her walk out of the Jade Immortal Palace in a hurry, and couldn't help but smile at each other. Liu Yeqing knew that Ji Zhongting was here to do something, so he couldn't stay here any longer, so he found a reason and said: "Niangniang, the concubine should go and see the virtuous concubine!" ”

Mo Yu nodded and said, "Well, go ahead!" You help me persuade her, in the future, be honest, don't always think about me. ”

"Yes."

Waiting for Liu Yeqing to retreat, Ji Zhongting sat opposite Moyu and said curiously: "Sister, I'm curious, she will be angry if she preserves you?" ”

Mo Yu showed a beautiful smile, leaned in front of Ji Zhongting, exhaled lightly, and said, "What do you think?" ”

Hey! Ji Zhongting immediately jumped three steps away from her, rubbed the goosebumps on his body, and said with a disgusted face: "Sister, I know it's wrong, can't I?" I'm not supposed to make fun of you. But sister, your smile just now is so good-looking, no wonder so many people like you. If you weren't my sister, I'd marry you!" Ha ha. ”

"What did you say?"

"Woo." Ji Zhongting immediately covered his mouth with both hands, shook his head with big eyes, and squeezed out a word from between his fingers. "No, no, I'm kidding, I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything."

Mo Yu was indeed shocked in his heart, this kid, usually looking at him with a big grin, thought he was a boy with a long heart. I didn't expect him to have such sharp eyes and such delicate thoughts. She cleaned up the pen and ink on the table and said, "If you're okay, go back and study well to prepare for the exam, or prepare for your wedding, don't come here to bother me." ”

Only then did Ji Zhongting remember that he still had something to do, so he sat down opposite Moyu again and said, "Originally, I didn't want to come, but they forced me to come, and I had to come." ”

"What the hell is going on?"

Ji Zhongting lowered his face, and Nuo Nuo said, "They asked me to ask you, is the child conceived by Concubine Xian a boy or a girl?" ”

For women in the royal family, it is especially important whether they have children whether they are male or female. Don't say it's royalty, but among the people, having boys and girls is also important. If you give birth to a boy, you can rely on the mother and the son to ascend to the sky in one step, if you give birth to a girl, at most you will enter a position, and there is no practical benefit. The Ji family is anxious to know the gender of Ji Jade's child, so they should want to make plans early! Hearing Ji Zhongting continue: "Originally, I didn't want to come, but they threatened me, saying that if I didn't come, Danxiu would not have a good life after passing the door. ”

In the face of interests, family affection will become as small as a speck of dust. If the goal is not achieved, you can do whatever it takes, you can ignore the feelings of others, you can not care about the life and death of others, and even more often it is to create the life and death of others.

Mo Yu's fingers knocked on the table intentionally or unintentionally, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say. "The child is too young to tell the difference. Besides, I don't know much about gynecology, and I haven't been in contact with pregnant women, so my judgment may not be accurate, and if it affects them at that time, don't rely on me. ”

"Sister, I'm sorry. I knew it shouldn't be, but I couldn't help it. Do you know? The rumors of Sister and Yetian were spread by them. ”

Mo Yu pulled away a helpless smile and said lightly, "I know." Biyue had already told her about this.

"You know?" Ji Zhongting raised his head and asked in surprise, "How do you know?" ”

"Hehe, although I don't disdain to fight, I'm not alone. After entering the palace for so long, the power is naturally a little bit, and if you want to check it, you can naturally find it. ”

Ji Zhongting lowered his head apologetically and said softly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry for them." ”

Beneath his jet-black hair, she couldn't see his face clearly. Moyu turned her head to look at the clean sky outside the window, it was April again, and her least favorite weather was coming again. "No one is sorry for anyone, think from their point of view, don't they think they are right when they do this? If you really feel guilty, take good care of Danxiu in the future, because I single-handedly contributed to the two of you, and I want to see you happy. ”

Ji Zhongting slowly raised his head, his eyes were a little red, I'm afraid he had tears in his eyes just now! "Sister, do you really want to see us happy? What kind of happiness? ”

"Zhongting, life is your own, not because I think it's like it, you have to live it how you want to live. As long as you are carefree, you only have each other in your eyes, you can talk and laugh, as long as you feel happy, it is happiness. ”

"Okay, sister, I understand. On the day I got married, can you go back and have a glass of wine, I really want you to go back. ”

Mo Yu nodded and said with a smile: "If you don't say this, I will also go, I haven't drunk other people's wedding wine, I really want to see that scene." ”

"Then I have to entertain you well, and if there is anything missing in the future, I can also reach out to you, haha."

Mo Yu knew that he was just joking on purpose to ease the atmosphere. So he also followed her and smiled: "In my palace, there is nothing else except money, if you are short of money to spend, you can find me." ”

"Sister, do you know how many people have to be angry with your words. So poor that you only have money left, you really have a lot of money! ”

Mo Yu pointed to the furnishings in the hall and said, "Although the net worth is not much, it is enough to have more than yours." ”

"It's better to be a sister."

Just as she was talking and laughing, Biyue walked in, bowed down and said, "Niangniang, the wine and food have been prepared." ”

Mo Yu stood up, looked at his younger brother and said, "Let's go, it's rare that so many families gather here today, let's have a good meal!" ”

It is rare to hear Mo Yu talk about the word "home", let alone the word "family", today she said that these people are her family, and she thinks that she accepts them from the bottom of her heart and treats them as the closest people.

Ji Zhongting stood up happily and said, "Okay, I haven't tasted the food in the palace yet, hey, did you brew the wine yourself?" ”

"Yes, freshly brewed, you can drink as much as you want."

"Great."
