Now the eldest lady no longer has the idea of continuing to ask Xue Bitao what's wrong, she thinks about how to let the Marquis of Zhenyuan take back her fame after the banquet, and don't give the housekeeping to the second lady.

Thinking that the Marquis of Zhenyuan would hand over the internal affairs to the second lady who was incompatible with her, the eldest lady was not good.

It's a pity that the Marquis of Zhenyuan has been socializing, and the eldest lady has never been able to find a chance to talk, so she can only give up.

After entertaining outside for a while, the Marquis of Zhenyuan came to the old ancestor.

Jiu Jiu and Zhou Haiqing were talking to their ancestors.

Although Zhou Haiqing looks cold and inviolable in front of outsiders, in front of his ancestors, he is extremely friendly, and he is very familiar with peeling fruits, taking snacks and telling jokes and amusing things for his ancestors and Jiujiu, without the slightest slight.

The old ancestor who was originally extremely satisfied with Zhou Haiqing couldn't be more satisfied with Zhou Haiqing at this moment.

Marquis Zhenyuan came over, and saw that the old ancestor did not affect his mood at all because Xue Bitao did not come, and immediately smiled and said, "Mother." ”

"Dingyuan, you're here." The old ancestor looked at the lonely Marquis of Zhenyuan, his brows instantly furrowed, and asked, "Where is your daughter-in-law?" Why did you come alone. ”

"She's busy, I'll take a look first."

"Busy?" The old ancestor frowned, how could he not know what kind of character the eldest lady was, and when he heard the Marquis of Zhenyuan say that she was busy, it was clear in an instant, and he was worried about the face of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, so he just smiled and said: "Since she is busy, let her be busy, I am an old woman, it would be good to have Yu'er and Haiqing with me." ”

Jiujiu saw the clues, but in any case, the eldest lady was her mother, although she didn't treat her very well, she still said with a smile on her face: "Since my mother is busy, I won't disturb my mother." ”

Zhou Haiqing lowered his eyes and poured tea for Jiu Jiu and the old ancestor, as if he didn't notice the low pressure between the Marquis of Zhenyuan and the old ancestor.

Until the end of the birthday banquet, Xue Bitao did not say a greeting, and the prince did not come.

Although the old ancestor didn't say it, he was very disappointed in his heart, and what Zhenyuan Hou thought in his heart was naturally unknown.

Except for a lady who was still worried about Xue Bitao, everyone in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion knew that the prince was very dissatisfied with the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.

If you have the slightest idea, you won't even say hello.

And at the moment.

The prince looked at Xue Bitao, who was kneeling on the ground with a ruddy face, his face was so gloomy that he could almost wring out water, and the prince's vicious gaze was like a knife, staring at Xue Bitao's belly that was still flat and could not see a trace of pregnancy.

The grandmother sent by the queen to take care of Xue Bitao had already been separated by him, and he couldn't wait to open Xue Bitao's belly and take out the child who shouldn't have appeared.

In his previous life, he could poison his eldest son for Xue Biyu, and he could naturally do it in this life, but what he didn't expect was that Xue Bitao would get pregnant so soon, and the pregnancy was known to the queen, and the prince even had some doubts that Xue Bitao really fainted or pretended to faint when he fainted.

If the queen doesn't know that the child is okay, he can still quietly kill the child, but now that the queen already knows, the emperor is naturally the same, if the child in Xue Bitao's belly has three long and two short, I am afraid that the queen will definitely make a fuss.

The prince looked at Xue Bitao expressionlessly, and only after a long time did he retract his gaze, and his tone was as cold as ice: "Get up." ”

With the permission of the prince, Xue Bitao hurriedly got up from the cold ground with one hand, but the pain from her knee made her gasp.

Now she is being looked at by the prince like an enemy, and she is surrounded by the queen who is impenetrable, and even the eldest lady will not agree to come, let alone that she wants to spread the news.

Now she is like a bird who has been locked in a cage and lost her freedom.

She hated the prince, but she couldn't help but listen to the prince's words.

Looking at Xue Bitao's face, which was a little whiter than just now, the prince snorted coldly, no matter how disgusted he was in his heart, he couldn't kill him now, he could only wait until he ascended the throne to find time to kill the two of them. 、

The prince's eyes were cold and contemptuous, with a nonchalant indifference, as well as disdain and calculation for her.

In her previous life, her pregnancy coincided with the aggravation of the emperor's illness, and the prince only had such a child under his knees, if the child was gone, he was afraid that it would become a reason for other princes to attack him, so he let her give birth to a child.

And in this life, because of the queen's attention, the prince could only let her give birth to a child, but, looking at the prince's eyes, he was afraid that when he ascended the throne, he would not be able to escape death.

Xue Bitao's mouth was bitter, but in order to continue to breathe, she could only lower her eyes and pretend that she didn't know anything.

After a while, the mother sent by the queen to take care of her brought her the daily necessary tonic soup, Xue Bitao drank the tonic soup in the fiery eyes of the mother, and then followed the instructions to lie on the bed and close her eyes to recuperate.

At this moment, the General's Mansion.

Jiu Jiu was lying on the chaise longue and eating fruit snacks while talking to Zhou Haiqing with a leisurely expression: "You tell me honestly, what is going on with the prince and Xue Bitao?" ”

A few days ago, Xue Bitao came to look for her, Zhou Haiqing said that she would not come back, but she was told by her ancestors that Xue Bitao was pregnant, and this date was too serious.

Zhou Haiqing put down the military book in his hand, raised his head and looked at Jiujiu's clear and bright eyes: "Want to know?" ”

"Well, I want to know."

It stands to reason that Xue Bitao is pregnant, and the prince should pay attention to it, but why didn't he even send congratulations on the birthday of the ancestor, which is obviously a prelude to dissatisfaction with the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.

I'm afraid that after today's birthday banquet, there will be less than half of the officials who want to make friends with the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.

Although the position of the crown prince is very stable, the rest of the princes are not without ideas about this position, if the prince wants to continue to sit, he must maintain a good concern with the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, but it is really unbelievable that he did such a thing at this critical juncture.

"The prince doesn't like Xue Bitao." Zhou Haiqing looked into Jiujiu's eyes and said, "The informant reported that the prince never spent the night with Xue Bitao, and before it was revealed that she was pregnant, there was no one in Xue Bitao's house who was waiting. ”

"What?"

"Don't believe me?" Zhou Haiqing raised his eyebrows.

Jiu Jiu hurriedly shook his head and muttered in a low voice: "I don't disbelieve it, but even if I don't like it anymore, I can't even do my face." ”

"Xue Bitao has no available person around her, she married the prince, which represents the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, as long as she lives, the relationship between the prince and the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion will not change, and the prince is the prince, and he will be the lord of a country in the future, so even if the Zhenyuan Marquis knows Xue Bitao's situation, he will not have a complaint against the prince."

After all, Marquis Zhenyuan is not stupid enough to make trouble with the future lord of the country for an unfavored daughter.
