Chapter 178: Digging the Wall and Picking Plums
Since then, Bai Lisheng suddenly figured it out, so he no longer did anything to the child in Chu Qingruo's belly, but carefully cared for it in every way.
And his care for Chu Qingruo and the child in her belly made Zhang Enshu and Jin Minxi secretly jealous and hateful in their hearts. The shrewd Jin Minxi pinched her fingers and calculated the time when Chu Qingruo escaped and the time when she was pregnant again, and she was shocked in her heart.
This...... This...... The child is clearly not His Royal Highness the Prince, why is His Royal Highness the Prince so nervous. Isn't that little slut using some means to deceive His Royal Highness? It seems that if you look for a day, you will have to explore the tone of His Royal Highness the Prince of the World.
"Vomit ......"
In the past few days, Chu Qingruo gradually showed symptoms of joy, and he vomited early every morning and was exhausted. Bai Lisheng, who returned to Minghua Palace after the court, heard about this matter, so he immediately put down the document he wanted to review and hurried over.
"Qingruo, how are you?" The concern of the fist was unabashedly shown on his face.
Chu Qingruo was weakly supported by a palace person, and after rinsing his mouth, he lay down on the bed with all his strength: "Your Highness...... I've said it many times, please...... Call me Mrs. Fu......"
Bai Lisheng directly ignored her clichΓ© insistence, reached out and took the Laba porridge that had just been delivered from the palace people, gently scooped a spoonful, put it to his mouth to blow it cold, and handed it to her mouth: "Open your mouth!" β
Chu Qingruo turned his face, this person ...... Always talking to myself.
"Qingruo, even if you want to be angry with me, you shouldn't be hungry for the child in your belly, come, be obedient, be obedient, drink this bowl of porridge......" Bai Lisheng patiently coaxed her.
Chu Qingruo, who was helpless, had to point to the small table next to the bed with his finger: "Put it away, I just vomited, and I really don't have an appetite to eat." β
"Okay, then you remember to eat it in a moment." He put down the bowl and turned back to the palace people and instructed: "After a while, you must watch her finish eating." β
The palace people responded, and Bai Lisheng reluctantly got up and left, preparing to return to Minghua Palace to continue to review the folds.
Walking to a certain path in the palace courtyard, he suddenly heard a noise, and Bai Lisheng stopped to look.
It turned out that a group of young low-ranking insiders had set up a ladder on the wall of the Shizi's Mansion to pick the fruit of a large tree that had reached into the wall from outside the wall and was pressed by the snow, but still had lush foliage.
"Be careful."
"Oops...... Point to the left, there's more! β
"Hey, look at it, I've been thrown at me!"
"What are you doing?" Bai Lisheng's voice sounded majestically.
A group of internal affairs hurriedly knelt on the ground: "His Royal Highness." β
"What were you guys doing?"
"This ...... Your Highness, the slaves and maidservants just ...... I am picking green plums. A small and skinny little insider who looked unusually clever stepped forward to reply.
"Oh, can you eat green plums this season?" Bailisheng was surprised.
"I can eat and eat, but it is sour, and most people don't eat it, only those who have a bad spleen and stomach and can't eat can feel particularly appetizing when they eat it."
Xiao Neishi replied truthfully: "Recently, a few of us have eaten more greasy food, and our spleen and stomach are a little uncomfortable, so we want to play some green plums to eliminate food and appetize." β
"Oh? What might a pregnant person eat? Bai Lisheng immediately thought of Chu Qingruo.
"Eat well, I heard my mother say that when she was pregnant with me, she vomited all day long, couldn't eat, and stopped vomiting immediately after eating a few green plums." Xiao Neishi knew which one in the Shizi's Mansion was pregnant now, and when he saw him asking, he immediately replied as if asking for credit.
"Oh, is it? Take one and taste it to the king. Bai Lisheng took one and threw it into his mouth; β¦β¦ Bah! Bah! This...... Can this be eaten? So sour! β
Don't bluff people, where is this food for people, his sour facial features are squeezed together.
Xiao Neishi hurriedly explained: "This is not eaten by ordinary people, but people with a body don't feel sour at all when they eat it." β
"Really? Okay, you can send some more to Minghua Palace. β
On the second day, the palace people came to report that Chu Qingruo had used a big bowl of porridge this morning, and a few side dishes with green plums, Baili Sheng was happy, and with a wave of his hand, he announced the little internal matter of yesterday: "What's your name?" β
Xiao Neishi fell to the ground: "Villain Cui Hong." β
"Well, from today onwards, you will stay in Minghua Palace and walk." Bai Lisheng saw that this little insider was a clever one, so he allocated him to Chu Qingruo. "Serve her well, and if anything goes wrong with the child in her womb, I'll kill your head!" Do you hear that? β
The little internal affairs imperial city fell to the ground in fear and said loudly: "Yes, His Royal Highness." β
"Wait a minute." Bai Lisheng suddenly thought about something again, and called out to Cui Hong, who was about to retreat, "You take a few people and go to chisel the wall next to that green plum tree for this king." β
The pool steward, who had been silent on the side, was very surprised, and hurriedly spoke out to stop: "Your Highness, this is ...... By all means, the walls of this Shizi's Mansion have been chiseled, so wouldn't that give those small people a chance? In this way, wouldn't they be nothing in and out of the Shizi's Mansion! β
Bai Lisheng smiled: "Then bother the pool steward, invite some craftsmen to chisel the wall, and then rebuild it around the green plum tree?" What's so hard about that? β
"This ...... Yes, Your Highness. The pool steward took Cui Hong and stepped back together.
*
Soon, in an inn in Shengjing City, the steward in disguise and in a hurry, Song Xiuzhu walked into the inn together and entered a room on the second floor.
"Good news!"
Fu Lingyun, Xu Yong and Lian Feng surrounded them together.
"The topographic map of the Shizi Mansion is finally in hand." The steward happily took out a map from his bosom and slapped it on the table triumphantly.
Song Xiuzhu also danced: "I also found a good news here." To build a wall in the Shizi Mansion, it takes more than a dozen craftsmen, and our opportunity has come. β
Xu Yong knocked on the table excitedly: "Sleepy comes to send a pillow, wonderful!" β
Although Fu Lingyun didn't speak, he nodded slightly with the same excited expression.
*
"Hurry up and work, don't be lazy!"
"Ah, you move these bricks there!"
On the construction site of the reconstruction of the outer wall of the Shizi Mansion, Fu Lingyun and Xu Yong, who were disguised as craftsmen, were lowering their heads, absentmindedly beating on the bricks, and peeking into the courtyard wall of the Shizi Mansion that had been pushed to from time to time. It's heavily guarded at night, and it's much harder to sneak in at night than during the day when the guards are lax.
Xu Yong, who pretended to pass tools, observed the actions of the overseers, and slowly paced to Fu Lingyun, who was squatting on the ground, and asked in a low voice, "Master, when will we do it." β
Fu Lingyun lowered his head and chiseled the stone hard, but said in his mouth: "Observe for two more days." "The villain is right, he can't let his brothers go on adventures with him, so be safe.
Xu Yong nodded, and slowly walked away as if nothing had happened.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the lights in the Minghua Palace were bright, and Bai Lisheng, who had just passed the meal, was taking the handkerchief handed by the internal affairs and cleaning his hands, while listening to the progress of the rebuilding of the exterior wall reported by the pool steward.
Chu Qingruo, who was eating silently on the side, pricked up his ears and listened word for word.
Bai Lisheng, who was talking, quietly drifted over, only to see her eyebrows lowered, looking like she didn't care about herself, and she was only concentrating on eating.
looked at the side dishes she sandwiched the most, and sure enough, they were all green plums or green plum juice. Laughing secretly, this kind of taste is really only loved by those who are pregnant.
After eating, Chu Qingruo rested early, but he was tossing and turning on the bed, constantly thinking about the matter that Bai Lisheng and Manager Chi had just discussed.
The Shizi Mansion is building the exterior wall, and it will definitely gather a lot of craftsmen, and he doesn't know where Brother Wenyuan is now, he doesn't know about it. Would he be among the artisans and come to her rescue?
She now has a body, but the fetus is not yet stable, and she can't withstand the long journey and escape. But how was she going to get the news out of him? Now she is a canary in a cage, with wings that are difficult to fly. Wanting to return to his arms, to return to his hometown, has become a luxury.
Perhaps because of her body, Chu Qingruo, who has always been optimistic and strong, became sentimental, and a tear dripped down her cheek and fell on the pillow......

"Come on, come on, move the rocks here, move quickly!"
The overseers shouted loudly, and the craftsmen who were trying to move the huge stones in the cold wind and rain complained one by one: "Oops...... My lord...... Now that it's raining so hard, let's take a break and hide from the rain, shall we? β
The overseers looked up at the sky, and it seemed that the rain had not stopped so quickly. "Okay, you all stop, wait for the rain to stop before you do it!"
"Thank you, thank you, your lord." The craftsmen are grateful.
"My lord, you are a good person, take us to a place to rest in the rain!" Suddenly there was a proposal among the craftsmen.
"Yes, yes, my lord, you are a good person to the end, so let's help." With someone taking the lead, the rest of the craftsmen also followed suit, and pleaded with the overseer.
The overseers looked at the heavy rain, not to mention them, and they were all drenched: "That's ...... Then come with me! Ay...... I warn you, you are not allowed to wander around when you enter, and I don't care if you run into a master who kills your head! β
The craftsmen nodded hurriedly: "Ah Yo Gu~ My lord, look at what you said...... We are also people who have repaired a lot of aristocratic mansions, how can we be so eyeless to see~ I won't run around, my lord, you can rest assured. β
"Then, then you can come with me!" The overseer led them to a secluded cloister.
Everyone braved the heavy rain and rushed into the cloister, shaking off the water traces on their bodies, "Hey...... I don't know how long this rain will fall. β
The overseer stretched out his head and counted the heads: "Ah, are you all here?" Why do you seem to be missing two people? β
