Old Madam Xiao and Su Shanyun hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her.

Zhang Ying, who had just returned from teaching in the chess club, was about to go to Mrs. Xiao's room to say hello, but was told by the maid that "the old lady and the eldest lady are in the living room, and Mrs. Guo from Wutong Lane is here."

Zhang Ying went to the living room to meet everyone.

As soon as Guo saw Zhang Ying, he remembered Su Ziming's rejection of Guo Wanzhu at the beginning, and his mood surged again as soon as he calmed down, so his expression when he looked at Zhang Ying was very unnatural.

Zhang Ying came forward to salute generously as if she didn't notice it: "Auntie, Sichuan and his party feel good?" ”

"That's it." Guo Shiqiang squeezed out a smile and said. She came today to brag about what she had seen and heard on this trip, but she was completely in no mood at this time, so she just passed it by.

Zhang Ying understood and sat down on the side.

Because she was pregnant, Zhang Ying sat down a little slowly, and Guo Shi could see it at a glance, and her face suddenly became ugly.

Guo Wanzhu is still not pregnant, this Zhang Ying is only more than three months earlier than Guo Wanzhu, and she is pregnant with her second child.

"Niece and daughter-in-law, you shouldn't have it again, right?" Guo asked, his tone a little sour.

Zhang Ying hurriedly looked at Mrs. Xiao, and when she saw that Mrs. Xiao was glaring at her, she smiled and said to Guo, "I don't know if it's yet." ”

Guo Shi sneered in his heart, and then said: "Sometimes I can't understand that a person like you, who has seen the world, would be willing to come here from that big place in the capital to live a plain life. ”

"It's a small day that tastes." Mrs. Xiao answered.

"When a woman loves a man very much, she wants to have children for him." Old Madam Xiao continued.

The expression on Guo's face was as if he had been suddenly struck.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xiao smiled and said, "I made a lot of hibiscus cakes and osmanthus cakes yesterday, you can try them." Then let the maid bring it up.

Kwok had no intention of staying longer. After the pastry was served, he symbolically picked up a piece and ate it, then stood up and said goodbye.

After sending away their mother and daughter, Mrs. Xiao said to Zhang Ying: "Her person just talks like that, don't take it to heart." ”

"No, I'm not affected at all." Zhang Ying said with a smile.

"It's still early, you better go back to your room and get some sleep." Mrs. Xiao said to her with concern......

"Okay." Zhang Ying got up obediently.

Su Shanyun also knew about Zhang Ying's pregnancy now, and hurriedly asked Zhang Ying: "How many months?" ”

"It's been three and a half months." Zhang Ying said with a smile.

"Then I can have a brother or sister next spring." Su Shanyun was sincerely happy.

"I feel a little embarrassed, you're about to get married, and I'm still pregnant with your brother or sister." Zhang Ying said with a shy face.

"What's this? I wish I had more brothers and sisters. Su Shanyun smiled.

………………

The next afternoon, Su Shanyun received a reply from Yan Jinxuan.

"Recently, the third prince has sent three more people to the queen's side, so it seems that she is safe for the time being, don't worry too much...... You should come to Beijing early next year, the sooner the better. Yan Jinxuan said in the letter.

When she saw his last sentence, Su Shanyun blushed unconsciously.

So she counted her fingers and lived her life.

…………

It's November in the blink of an eye.

Su Zizhao wrote to say that he couldn't come back for the New Year this year because he couldn't leave the yamen.

Old Madam Xiao was greatly disappointed.

However, when I thought that my son was due to work, I didn't say much.

However, Su Shanyun vaguely sensed something.

"Daddy. I guess it's not been peaceful in the capital lately. Su Shanyun said to Su Ziming.

"It's possible. Otherwise, your second uncle will definitely not stay in the capital for the New Year. Su Ziming said.

They didn't guess wrong, the capital at this time was indeed shrouded in an invisible smoke of gunpowder - Yan Shichong found out about the third prince.

"Is it him?" At first, when he learned that it was the third prince who took the lead in dealing with the Yan Party, Yan Shichong was quite surprised.

But it soon dawned on him.

In order to prevent the third prince from finding out about his secret cooperation with Shi Guifei, he immediately met with Shi Guifei secretly after learning the news.

"Don't act lately, the third prince has already noticed it." Yan Shichong said to Shi Guifei.

"Huh? How would he know? Shi Guifei was surprised.

Outsiders don't know about her teaming up with Yan Shichong. How did the three princes perceive it?

The more Shi Guifei thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.

If such a secret thing is discovered, it will be discovered. So does anyone know about her relationship with Yan Shichong? Shi Guifei suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

"I don't know through whom he found out. In short, you have to be extra careful lately, and it is best to try to make even the queen's face as rare as possible. ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

By the dark night. Yan Shichong reached out and stroked her face, then took her into his arms with one hand, and asked in a deep voice, "Will you go back later tonight?" ”

I don't know when we will see each other like this next time, so he hugged her tightly without waiting for her to agree.

Soon, her moaning/moaning could be heard in the night.

What they didn't know was that there was a pair of sensitive ears listening less than ten feet away from them.

When this person informed the third prince of the news the next day, the latter's face was suddenly pale, and many of them could not come to their senses.

It turned out that the person behind Concubine Shi was Yan Shichong, and their relationship was extraordinary.

The third prince rubbed his eyebrows and couldn't help sighing.

Poor father, if he knew that the woman he loved the most was actually going behind his back to meet other men, he would not know how sad he would be. The more the third prince thought about it, the more angry he became.

Eventually, though, he decided to keep quiet.

There is still a month to go before the New Year, but this month is also the most dangerous time for Empress Kuang's situation, and the third prince did not dare to relax in the slightest, so he sent people to take turns to monitor the Kunning Palace where Empress Kuang was located day and night.

The Spring Festival is approaching day by day.

Su Shanyun, Yan Jinxuan, and the three princes were all getting more and more nervous, and the three princes even stayed in Kunning Palace for a long time on the pretext of asking for peace from the queen mother.

Empress Kuang played several games of chess with him every day.

When I was playing chess, I didn't forget to discuss the tea ceremony with him.

The third prince had already studied the tea ceremony, so the two seemed to have endless things to say whenever they talked about it.

"Rui'er, I think I'll be fine this year." Empress Kuang said with a smile.

"Really?" Zhu Rui asked.

"Because Concubine Shi recently saw me from afar and avoided it." Empress Kuang said.

"Queen Mother, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, and we can't relax a little bit at the last moment of the New Year." The third prince said with a serious expression.

"I know, but you've sent too many people, so it's easy to get people's attention." Empress Kuang said.

"The child promised you not to add more people, but none of the current people can be withdrawn." The third prince said in a resolute tone. (To be continued......)
