Chapter 517: Follow the Trend
Tian Xiaoqi seems to be reckless and foolish, but every step is in her plan. Hearing that Duanmu was pregnant, Tian Xiaoqi instantly thought of taking advantage of the situation, she had to force Duanmu Li to give birth to this child, not only to give birth, but also to force Duanmu to return to her heart.
The Duanmu family is the queen's backer, and the current Hou Ye, that is, Duanmuli's father is the sister of the queen's mother, so it can be said that they are both prosperous and lossy.
But...... What is Duanmu Li to the Hou Mansion? That was the Hou Mansion who did his best to train and grow up with the queen's qualifications, and he was originally going to the position of the big horse.
But...... For her own selfishness, the queen not only let the eldest princess marry the son of the prime minister, but also gave Duanmu Li to the ninth princess who did not learn and did not know how to do it regardless of her friendship for many years, which is equivalent to completely ruining Duanmu Li.
The queen thought that her position was stable, and the honor and disgrace of the Duanmu family were tied to her alone, so no matter what she did, the Duanmu family didn't dare to say anything. But...... Don't you complain if you don't say it in your mouth?
When the queen did this, she trampled on the face of the Hou Ye.
Of course, Duanmuli is not just a son to Hou Ye, the Hou Mansion's favor for Duanmu Li is real, when Duanmu Li was given marriage to Situ Ling, his father almost cried blind, and even the little Hou Ye blew up, eager to kill the eldest princess with his own hands to avenge his sister.
But in the end, they were suppressed by the Hou Ye, and they could only break their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs, after all, everything about the eldest princess is closely related to the Duanmu family, and without the eldest princess and the queen, it is when the emperor attacks the Duanmu family.
But...... Now it's different, Duanmu is pregnant, if this birth is a princess...... Don't forget, Duanmu Li is the concubine of the Ninth Princess, the wife of the main house, and the children born are also grandchildren, and the Ninth Princess is ...... It is also qualified to compete for the royal blood of the world.
Let's not talk about who is closer to my grandson or sister? Let's just say that now the empress is in the prime of life, and her body is healthier than that of a general, but the eldest princess has grown up to be able to take charge of herself, the so-called one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, can the empress really watch the eldest princess continue to grow? If you really can, you can't see it, and now you haven't set up a daughter.
So this is their chance!
All right...... At this time, Hou Ye completely ignored Situ Ling's unlearned and unskilled character, what if he had no interest, just with his huge Duanmu family, couldn't he support a ninth princess?
Duanmu Li thought about it all night after finding out that she was pregnant, and finally went back to Duanmu's house to discuss with Hou Ye, Duanmu Li could ignore Situ Ling, but Situ Ling's words were right, as far as her character who vowed to offend the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces, no matter who reached the top, she would die.
Situ Ling can die, but the child in his womb can't die with him, so ...... Duanmu thought about it again and again, and finally made a decision.
After all, it is a man who is trained according to the queen of the siege, Duanmu Li has always known what he wants, in the past, he wanted to marry the eldest princess, help the princess win the world, and work with him to create a prosperous world. But...... The queen broke the contract and ruined her dream for many years, and for a long time after marrying Situ Ling, Duanmu Li was confused, and even wanted to get by.
But now it's different, he is pregnant with Situ Ling's child, this is a closer relative than his father, he can't watch the child die with Situ Ling, or survive.
Duanmu Li had a new goal, although this new goal completely pushed him to the opposite side of the eldest princess, but ...... She has no choice, one is the eldest princess who can't protect her, and the other is her biological child, so there is no need to say who to choose.
Hou Ye was still undecided at first, but Duanmu Li talked to her for a whole afternoon and finally persuaded him. Whether it is from interests or feelings, Duanmu's child in the womb is his best choice.
Tian Xiaoqi knew that Duanmuli had succeeded when she said that she was going to give birth to this child, but this was only the first step, how could she not think of these queens, so whether Duanmuli could give birth to this child safely was the biggest problem.
You see that she made trouble in front of the palace like a fool, but she put this matter in front of the empress, and the people in the princess's mansion are all the empress's people, as long as she is willing to protect her, the queen's hand will not be able to reach in, and the child's hope for survival will be one more.
Take 10,000 steps back and say, the empress protects it herself, and she can also let the queen take advantage of the loophole, will the empress think deeply? She can't stop the queen's hand, so ...... How dare she do this queen?
After this experience, no matter whether the queen wins or loses, she has to peel off a layer of skin.
Of course, no matter how Tian Xiaoqi secretly stirred up, on the surface, he was just a waste with a sad face for the gold medal to avoid death. Seeing Tian Xiaoqi get up early in the morning to avoid dying for the gold medal, running before and after running in the dark, his scalp was about to be scratched, and Duanmu Li actually felt that this fool was quite cute.
"It's useless, but it's also a little innocent." Duanmu Li's henchman said with a smile.
"Fools are blessed with fools." Duanmu Li touched his stomach and said lightly.
These days, no matter how tired Tian Xiaoqi is, he will come back on time every night to accompany Duanmu Li to dinner, and sometimes he leaves the house in a hurry after eating to raise money. The two were affectionate and polite, not very intimate, but they repeatedly touched Duanmu Li.
"The princess would be a good mother." Zhao Shi said with a smile when he came to see Duanmu Li.
Duanmu Li looked up at Zhao She, "She is also a good wife." Duanmuli and Zhao Shi smiled at each other, and Zhao Shi continued to check Duanmuli's pulse.
The eldest princess slammed the tea bowl in her hand with a black face, when Duanmu Li and Situ Ling had a room, the eldest princess was very drunk, even so she didn't give up Duanmu Li. But this time he was pregnant, not only pregnant, but also left this evil seed! The eldest princess is heartbroken, who can't have children, she can!
That night the eldest princess went to the courtyard of the great horse, which she had not entered since the day of her marriage. I thought that the big pony would cry with joy, but I didn't expect her to be driven out by him.
"You! Outrageous! The eldest princess was furious.
Gu Zimu looked at her indifferently, "The eldest princess will step into here for half a step, and I will go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to talk about it." The eldest princess looked at Gu Zimu and was a little stunned, there seemed to be something different about today's big colt.
Gu Zimu ignored the princess and turned around and went back to the house. Since then, word has come out that the big colt is sick. Gu Zimu felt that the big horse had to die, and if he didn't die, he and Tian Xiaoqi would definitely be useless. Therefore, no matter how many doctors he saw and how many medicines he took, his condition became more and more serious.
Tian Xiaoqi felt that the empress was cheating on her, and the matter of money was related to the household department, which was the place where the third princess had to go. The construction of the river embankment is the business of the Ministry of Industry, which is the place of the Seven Princesses. These two people are a bit of a beam with her, and it would be good for her not to be embarrassed, let alone help.
