After five or six days, Gu Xinian led Ye Qinglan and Gu Xiyu to the Zhengguo Mansion.

It's been boring in the yard for a long time, and it's really a happy thing to be able to go out of the house to relax. Since the moment she got into the carriage, Ye Qinglan's mood began to improve, and she and Gu Xiyu leaned on their heads and whispered and laughed. The corners of his eyes and eyebrows are full of smiles. The depression and depression caused by the poisoning incident seem to have quietly faded.

Gu Xinian stared at Ye Qinglan quietly, and the corners of his lips raised slightly. No matter what she does these days, she can't be lazy and can't be interested. I hope that today's trip can make her completely come out of her depressed feelings......

Soon, the Zheng Guogong Mansion arrived.

Ye Qinglan and Gu Xiyu got off the carriage one after the other, looked up, and were suddenly surprised, happy and nervous: "Sixth sister, you have such a big belly, why are you still waiting at the door?" ”

Ye Qingning smiled disapprenosingly: "I stay in the yard every day, not to mention how boring it is." It's rare for you to come to see me today, I just have an excuse to come out and breathe! Let's go in and talk slowly. ”

Ye Qinglan responded with a smile, and affectionately supported Ye Qingning's arm and walked in.

The two sisters haven't seen each other for a few months, and they have some affection when they meet. Gu Xiyu couldn't interject for a while, so she quietly followed behind the two.

On this side, Zheng Junyan also talked with Gu Xinian while walking. Now, Zheng Junyan has been serving in the Ministry of Officials for nearly a year. has long faded away from the original youthfulness, and his manners are more calm.

Although the two belong to different factions, Zheng Junyan is still young, his official position is not high, and his qualifications are shallow, and he is not considered the backbone of the three princes' faction. Compared with Gu Xinian, who is in the third rank and controls the household department, of course, it is more than a step worse. Therefore, there is basically no chance of fighting. However, it retains some friendship. What's more, the two are cousins after all. Even if there is a political disagreement, the affection in private is deep.

The two have a tacit understanding that they don't mention political affairs, but only talk about some gossip such as poems, books, and words, but they are also very harmonious.

It is rare to come to Zheng Guogong's mansion once, Gu Xinian naturally wants to lead his wife and sister to visit his grandparents and uncles and aunts. After a busy circle, it will be considered to stop. Zheng Yun was rarely in the house, and specially left Gu Xinian and Zheng Junyan to talk and chat. Ye Qinglan Gu Xiyu followed Ye Qingning back to the courtyard first.

Ye Qingning walked on his stomach for so long, tired and panting, his hands and feet were sore, and he rested for a while after sitting down before he regained his strength.

"Sixth sister. Your day of giving birth is almost here! Ye Qinglan asked with concern.

Ye Qingning smiled calmly: "It's probably been the past few days." I can't say exactly what day it is, but in short, you have to be careful at all times. ”

At this time, the medical conditions were relatively backward, and there were no sophisticated instruments and equipment to detect the condition of the fetus, so they could only rely on experienced midwives to infer from experience. Naturally, there is no exact due date. Generally speaking, as soon as the pregnancy enters the seventh month, it is necessary to start preparing the delivery room for the midwife. Ye Qingning has been pregnant for more than nine months, and it is possible to launch it at any time.

Ye Qinglan gently put her hand on her stomach, and just as the child in her belly moved, Ye Qinglan was pleasantly surprised: "The child moved." ”

Ye Qingning pursed her lips and smiled. The pretty face, which was rounder than before, exuded a soft light: "The child knows that Aunt Ten is coming, so he greets him happily!" ”

Ye Qinglan was reluctant to remove her hand, and even put her ear on it to listen for a while, then raised her head with a smile: "I heard the voice." The child is shouting to Aunt Ten, I want to come out quickly. ”

Gu Xiyu was also interested, and also came to Ye Qingning's high bulging belly, and carefully let go of his hand. The child moved again. Gu Xiyu was taken aback at first, and then also found it interesting. I simply put my other hand on it.

Gu Xiyu was having a lot of fun, and Ye Qingning and Ye Qinglan couldn't help but smile at each other. whispered goodbye.

"I heard that you entered the palace a few days ago, right?"

Ye Qinglan snorted, not wanting Ye Qingning to worry, so she concealed some of the most important key parts of the truth: "...... The queen mother was worried and depressed, and my grandmother asked me to go into the palace with Cousin Yue to accompany the queen mother. Accompany her every day to talk to relieve boredom or wander around, and then it really improved......"

Ye Qingning glanced at Ye Qinglan thoughtfully: "I've heard of some, saying that the queen's illness was cured by you." I also heard that you had a quarrel with Cao Jieyu in the palace, and even Cao Jieyu was not interesting. ”

…… As Zheng Guifei's niece and daughter-in-law, Ye Qingning is much better informed than others.

Ye Qinglan didn't feel embarrassed, and smiled and turned over: "I don't want you to worry either, so I didn't tell the truth!" ”

Ye Qingning glanced at her angrily and funny: "You will play tricks with me!" ”

The relationship between the two sisters before marriage was naturally excellent, but now that one is married to the Zheng family and the other is married to the Gu family, the two families are in such an embarrassing opposite. Some words are inconvenient to say. Take what happened in the palace as an example, if Ye Qinglan told the truth, what would Ye Qingning feel like in his heart? Inevitably, it will be a little embarrassing. Therefore, some words can only be known to each other, but it is inconvenient to discuss them on the table......

Ye Qingning suddenly lowered his voice and asked: "There are some things that my cousin refuses to tell me, and only vaguely says that you and Cousin Yue have returned to the mansion, and two days later, the crown princess and the princess have also returned to the prince's mansion." Is something happening? ”

Obviously, Zheng Junyan concealed the turmoil caused by the poisoning. lest it provoke Ye Qingning's mood fluctuations, which is not conducive to raising the fetus.

Ye Qinglan naturally didn't tell the truth, and responded with an understatement: "It's nothing, it's just that I feel too stuffy after living in the palace for too long, so I said goodbye to the queen and went home." ”

Ye Qingning looked at Ye Qinglan suspiciously: "Is it really that simple?" ”

Ye Qinglan nodded without changing her face.

Ye Qingning thought about it, and didn't ask anymore, but muttered dissatisfiedly: "Cousin is like this, and you are like this." Hide everything from me. I'm pregnant and going to have a baby, yes, I'm not so fragile......"

Ye Qinglan just didn't hear it, and still smiled. The way she looked made Ye Qingning unable to complain more, so she had to keep her mouth shut. Changed the topic again: "By the way, you haven't seen Cousin Meng for a long time!" My cousin went to the Criminal Department two days ago to find him and asked him to go back to his house today. Maybe he'll be there later......"

This was an out-and-out surprise for Ye Qinglan, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "Is what you said true?" Is he really going to come back later? ”

Ye Qingning smiled and nodded.

Ye Qinglan hesitantly added: "However, Cousin Zheng knows it...... Why did you call him back? "Gu Xinian's cautious eye is notoriously good, how could Zheng Junyan make such a move to annoy Gu Xinian?

Ye Qingning smiled a little strangely, and slowly spit out a few words: "Actually, this was specially ordered by Cousin Gu." ”

……

Ye Qinglan's heart trembled fiercely, and then she was stunned for a long time without speaking. Ye Qingning thoughtfully didn't disturb her, just sat quietly aside.

Not to mention at this moment, even in modern times, a married man would not be generous enough to allow his wife to meet his ex-boyfriend. Not to mention, this time it was Gu Xinian who took the initiative to arrange it......

Ye Qingning may just be confused in his heart and don't know what's going on. Ye Qinglan quickly understood Gu Xinian's good intentions. He couldn't bear to see her depressed recently, so he specially arranged this meeting, so that she could meet Meng Zijun from the same world, and let her have the opportunity to talk to Meng Zijun......

Unconsciously, Ye Qinglan's eyes moistened.

"Cousin is so kind to you, I have nothing to say." There was envy in Ye Qingning's voice that couldn't be hidden.

Ye Qinglan took a deep breath and forced back the water light that reached the corner of her eyes, and all the complicated feelings turned into a light sigh: "Yes, he is really good to me." ”

As he was talking, a steady footstep suddenly sounded behind him.

Ye Qinglan's heart moved, turned around, and a familiar face with a handsome and smiling smile suddenly came into view. For a moment, the two of them looked at each other for a moment, and both of them felt a little embarrassed in their hearts, but they both hid it very well, and greeted each other with a smile.

Meng Zijun looked at Ye Qinglan with a smile, and did not shy away from complimenting. "I haven't seen you in a few months, but you're getting prettier and prettier." She was born with beautiful eyebrows, and after getting married, the greenness between her eyebrows completely faded, and she had the coquettish style of a first-time wife, just like flowers that gradually bloomed, exuding dazzling beauty.

Ye Qinglan looked back generously: "You have become dark and thin, are you very busy these days?" ”

Meng Zijun smiled nonchalantly: "There are not ten cases submitted to the Criminal Department every day, but there are eight cases, and there are only a few people in the Supervision and Arrest Department, so it's strange that they can be busy." ”

Ye Qingning interjected with a smile: "Cousin Meng is excellent in the Criminal Department, and he is highly appreciated, he has been promoted twice in just half a year, and now he is already the commander of the Arrest Department." ”

Seeing the question mark flashing in Ye Qinglan's eyes, Meng Zijun couldn't help but smile dumbly, and explained vaguely: "It's almost the same as being a captain." ”

Ye Qinglan suddenly understood. The captain of the criminal police has to manage dozens of people, and he is also a big officer in the police force. Meng Zijun has been in the Criminal Department for less than a year and has achieved an official position similar to that of his previous life, which should be considered a good mix. Of course, no matter what time it is in officialdom, background and connections are indispensable. Meng Zijun was promoted so quickly, I am afraid that it has nothing to do with the big tree of Zheng Guogong's mansion with his back.

Ye Qingning was stunned, and asked reflexively, "What is the captain?" ”

Ye Qinglan glanced at Meng Zijun, and suddenly smiled playfully: "The captain is actually not a thing!" ”

Meng Zijun: "......" (to be continued......
