Although it was a spring rain last night, and the ground was still a little slippery, it was sunny now. Now the sun is just right outside, the breeze is not dry, and the leaves are gently swaying in the breeze, leaving mottled shadows.

"Madam, the prince invited Dr. Shen to live in the house, saying that Dr. Shen lived in our house before you became pregnant and gave birth, if you have any problems, go to the front yard and ask Dr. Shen to come over and take a look for you."

Xu Jiayi thought that he just mentioned it casually last night, but she didn't expect to really invite Dr. Shen to the house, so she couldn't help but purse her lips and chuckle.

The happiest thing for a woman is probably to have a husband who can take all her words to heart.

Xu Jiayi looked out the window for a while, guessing what Qi Fei was looking for Chu Changfeng for. If it was in the barracks, Chu Changfeng should have rushed back to the barracks, why was he still in Changzhou.

Just thinking about it, she saw Mama Yao carrying a food box to Fengyuan, Xu Jiayi immediately greeted her, "Why is Mama Yao here?" ”

And seeing that Mama Yao's attitude is also very good, she shouldn't have come to Xingshi to ask for guilt.

"This is the pheasant mushroom soup that the old lady specially instructed the kitchen to boil for you, madam, you can taste it and see if you like it." Mama Yao said and handed the food box to Cuiyun on the side, and after asking a few words about Xu Jiayi's physical condition, she retired and was about to leave, "The old lady can't leave anyone, so the slave will go back to Rongyang Hall first." ”

"Madam, do you want to drink this soup now, or do you want to save it for your son's lunch?"

Xu Jiayi thought for a while and said, "Let's drink it now, the soup will be cold by lunch." ”

After Cuiyun answered "yes", she took the soup bowl out and scooped a small bowl out of the crockpot containing the mushroom soup to dry, and when it cooled a little, she took it to Xu Jiayi.

This mushroom soup is good, it smells delicious, and she doesn't feel sick to her stomach and wants to vomit, but it arouses her appetite. Xu Jiayi drank a few sips of soup and felt that the taste was not bad, but she only drank half a bowl, and she couldn't drink any more.

Despite this, Mama Hua was still very happy.

In the past, Mrs. was tired of smelling those fish soups, pig's trotter soups, etc., but now it would be good to be able to drink a small half bowl, but in her heart she thought that she would let the kitchen boil more of this soup and send it over.

Xu Jiayi glanced at the mushroom soup that still had more than half a can, and turned her head to ask, "Uncle Cousin is back?" ”

"I don't know ...... this"

"Take the food box, let's go to Liuyun Yuan to see Uncle Cousin." Xu Jiayi went outside the house as she spoke, Yuan Xiang hurriedly followed, and walked forward with Xu Jiayi in her arms, her eyes kept staring at her feet, and she didn't dare to slack off.

Now Xu Jiayi is a double body, so she must pay attention to safety. It rained yesterday and the road was a little slippery, but I couldn't throw my wife down.

Hearing this, Cuiyun turned around and went to the inner room to get a cloak and came out, picked up the food box and hurriedly chased after it. handed the cloak to Yuan Xiang, and Yuan Xiang hurriedly tied the cloak carefully for Xu Jiayi.

When they arrived at the gate of Liuyun Garden, the guards guarding outside saw Xu Jiayi's figure from a distance, and one of them went to the courtyard first, leaving one person to bow and salute when Xu Jiayi approached.

Inside Liuyun Garden.

A man dressed in black appeared in the study, respectfully reporting something, Chu Changfeng muttered for a while after listening to it, and then called the person to his side and whispered a few words, the man bowed his head and answered "Yes", and left the room in the blink of an eye.

Chu Changfeng raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, and slumped on the chair a little tiredly, when he heard that Xu Jiayi was coming, he immediately straightened his spirits, and strode out of the study to the door to pick up Xu Jiayi.

Xu Jiayi is only four months pregnant, and her belly is not very pregnant, if she doesn't look carefully, she will only be a little rounder, and she can't think of being pregnant at all.

Seeing Xu Jiayi's figure standing outside the courtyard gate, Chu Changfeng couldn't hide the smile on his face, so he hurriedly walked a few steps over and helped Xu Jiayi to walk in, seeing that only one Yuan Xiang and Cuiyun were following behind him, and he didn't stop, "Why are you here now, you are still pregnant, and you don't let more people follow." ”

Chu Changfeng's movements were extremely cautious, as if Xu Jiayi was not four months pregnant, but about to give birth. Yuan Xiang, who was originally supporting Xu Jiayi, saw Chu Changfeng coming, so he let go of his hand and took a step back, and after saluting, he stayed at the door of the study and did not follow up.

However, looking at Chu Changfeng's actions, Cuiyun and Yuan Xiang couldn't help but bend the corners of their mouths.

The prince is so good to his wife!

Such a cautious appearance shows his importance and affection for his wife.

After helping Xu Jiayi to sit down in the house, Xu Jiayi turned her eyes to look at Chu Changfeng and said, "Mother asked the kitchen to boil pheasant mushroom soup, I tasted it and it tasted good, and the rest will be borrowed and offered to the Buddha, and I will send you the rest." You've worked hard these days, you should eat more to replenish your body. ”

Chu Changfeng touched her waist and smiled with satisfaction.

Since Xu Jiayi became pregnant, she has eaten, slept and eaten every day, and walked around the yard in her spare time, which has now achieved initial results. At least the waist feels more fleshy than before, and it is very comfortable to hold in his arms, but after listening to her words, the son is dissatisfied and said, "You can just keep it for yourself, you don't have to send it to me, your body is the most important thing now." ”

"I've drunk it, you taste it." Xu Jiayi pushed the soup bowl in front of Chu Changfeng and motioned for him to drink it quickly.

Chu Changfeng took out the soup spoon inside and put it on the table, took the soup bowl and drank it all in one bite. Seeing this, Xu Jiayi stood up, "You still have something to do here, so I won't bother you." ”

This time, Chu Chang was busy outside of his style, and the time to return to Fengyuan was getting later and later. Many times Xu Jiayi has fallen asleep and he hasn't come back, and the next day when Xu Jiayi hasn't woken up, he has disappeared again, even Xu Jiayi, who shares the same bed, doesn't know how long he slept every night.

In his study, there were often all kinds of soldiers and spies, or secret guards, coming in and out, sending some secret reports and updates from various places.

Not only Chu Changfeng, but even Chu Minglei went out early and returned late on his face, and he didn't rest when he came back, and called Chu Changfeng into his own study, and the father and son didn't know what they were discussing in the study.

Despite this, Xu Jiayi also heard some rumors.

A lot of spies and killers sneaked in Changzhou, seemingly wanting to take the opportunity to make trouble in Changzhou, so as to cooperate with those barbarians outside Changzhou and take Changzhou. Xu Jiayi doesn't know if this is an exaggeration, but it is groundless, and it should be the case.

A few days later, Xu Jiayi heard that a border city in the northernmost part of Changzhou had been lost, and almost all the soldiers guarding that city had been wiped out, and it was too late when the reinforcements arrived, and the city was already a dead city.

The barbarians had already invaded the city over there, and they had slaughtered the men and children in the border cities under the sword, and if they met the women, they would be caught in the barracks and used as military prostitutes, humiliated in every way, and then returned to their own barracks with great strength.

Xu Jiayi specially asked a mother-in-law in the yard to inquire about these news.

When they heard the news, Cuiyun and Yuanxiang were so angry that their eyes were red, and they felt a little empathetic, and gritted their teeth, "Those things that are inferior to pigs and dogs, they will definitely die well!" If one day it falls into our hands, they will be put in the oil pot! ”

"Okay, I say everything in front of my wife, and I'm not afraid of polluting my wife's ears." When Mama Hua was at the door, she heard the sound in the room and paused, and when she saw that Cuiyun was about to say something even more unbearable, she hurriedly interrupted.

Seeing that Xu Jiayi's face was not very good, and she seemed to be frightened by what her mother-in-law said just now, Mama Hua softened her voice and said, "Madame, don't be afraid, those barbarians only dare to make trouble in the border city, and don't dare to come in Changzhou." And there are also the prince and the lord here! ”

The people here in Changzhou have long been accustomed to war, and when they say this, it is as if the weather is good today. Even the maids and ladies in the Anping Marquis Mansion did not have the slightest panic, and they were accustomed to doing their own work, even Cuiyun and the others, although they were panicked, they did not show anything in front of Xu Jiayi.

Xu Jiayi has never experienced war, and she has never been so close to war. She didn't know what the battle situation was like outside, so she just looked at it and asked Mama Hua tentatively, but Mama Hua didn't elaborate, but only reassured her that there was a prince and a master. Although this is the case, she proposed to go for a walk on the street during this time, and her proposal to breathe was vetoed by Mama Hua, saying that she was uneasy outside recently, and she would talk about it after a while.

Xu Jiayi could also guess from their attitudes that the battle in Changzhou this time was far less relaxed than what they said on their faces. Moreover, Changzhou has lost two or three cities in succession, which is not good for the morale of the army.

She also sent Cuiyun out to investigate, and Cuiyun went out and came back to report that there were more patrolling officers and soldiers on the streets outside, and the city gates in and out of Changzhou were also strictly checked, and if there were suspicious people, they were all detained and locked in a prison in Changzhou.

Xu Jiayi vaguely guessed that Changzhou might be in chaos.

Xu Jiayi wanted to ask from Chu Changfeng, but she couldn't see Chu Changfeng's figure at all. So after dinner this day, Xu Jiayi did not climb into bed and sleep as usual, but asked Cuiyun and the others to leave the light, and sent the maid down to sit by the window alone to collect shoes.

If you have work in your hands, you don't feel sleepy, lest you fall asleep before Chu Changfeng returns.

When Chu Changfeng returned to the yard, he saw that the lights were still on in the main house, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and when he pushed the door in, he saw Xu Jiayi sitting under the lamp to collect shoes for himself, and walked over to close the window next to her.

"Why haven't you slept yet?"
