Jingbei Hou couldn't help frowning when he heard this, "What did he tell you?" He felt more and more that Zhou Jinzhi must have said something that should not be said, otherwise Zhou would not be so nervous.

Husband and wife for many years, Zhou knows Jingbei Hou, and Jingbei Hou also understands Zhou. Zhou has always been gentle and small-minded, and has never hidden anything from him, but this time he just asked, and Zhou panicked.

Zhou's heart is not good, and the Marquis of Jingbei is afraid that he has already become disgusted. Even if this is the case, she can't tell him the truth, if she informs Jingbei Hou of Zhou Jinzhi's conditions, Jingbei Hou will inevitably be even more disgusted. Maybe, it will also affect the relationship between their husband and wife.

After Zhou Shi quickly weighed it in his heart, he replied: "Jinzhi, he didn't say anything, he just came to see me." Although Jinzhi is introverted and doesn't like to talk, he still misses my sister in the end. ”

"Really just to see you?" Zhou's expression was as usual, and his tone was unhurried, and on the surface, Jingbei Hou couldn't see any traces of lying.

Zhou smiled lightly: "Otherwise, what else can it be?" Master Hou, what's wrong with you? Why is it strange today? ”

Zhou lightly revealed Zhou Jinzhi's matter, and turned the topic elsewhere, "Master Hou, do you have any troubles in your heart, you might as well tell the concubine, even if the concubine can't make an idea for you, it will be better for you to say it." ”

Jingbei Hou does have troubles, but in the final analysis, there is only one thing.

"It's not that rebel yet...... Jingbei Hou sighed, "Forget it, don't bother to mention him." ”

Jingbei Hou's gaze fell on Zhou's already slightly bulging abdomen, and his eyes gradually became gentle, "This baby must be a son." ”

As he grew older, the Marquis of Jingbei became more and more aware of the importance of men. The title of the Marquis of Jingbei and the family business of the Huo family need to be inherited by heirs. It's a pity that he has a thin heir, and he only has one son, Huo Sijin.

As long as Zhou gives birth to a son, he will not have so many scruples in the future.

Zhou touched his abdomen, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and cautiously probed: "What is Hou Ye's words, if this child is a daughter, doesn't Hou Ye like her?" ”

Jingbei Hou Fangcai's words made Zhou's heart tighten, this one in the stomach was not born, no one can be sure whether it is a man or a woman, if it is a son, it is naturally the best, but if it is still a daughter, what should it be?

In the past, when she gave birth to Huo Zhirou, Jingbei Hou never mentioned that she had to give birth to a boy, but now that Jingbei Hou's attitude is different, Zhou couldn't help but feel worried. If this baby is really not a boy, will Jingbei Hou treat her no longer as before? Therefore, she immediately spoke tentatively, and she was eager to know the attitude of Jingbei Hou on this matter......

However, Jingbei Hou's reaction disappointed the Zhou family.

He didn't answer immediately, and was silent for a long time before he whispered, "I like our children." ”

Zhou's heart was cold again, and he said that he liked it, but in fact, he didn't think so in his heart......

Jingbei Hou comforted Zhou a few more words before leaving.

The Marquis of Jingbei was full of thoughts, so his steps were extremely slow. When Zhou mentioned it, he suddenly realized that if Zhou's baby couldn't give birth to a son, what should he do?

Whether it is him or Zhou, he is not young, and it is not easy for Zhou's pregnancy to conceive, if this child is not a son, will Zhou's still have a chance to regenerate in the future?

He naturally hopes to leave the family business to the son born to the woman he likes, but if the Zhou family can't give birth, what should he do?

Leave it to the eldest son Huo Sijin? That's impossible. Jingbei Hou never thought about letting Huo Sijin inherit the family business before, and now he doesn't want to do it even more. But the Zhou family has no son, and the Huo family only has Huo Sijin, how can this be good......

"Master Hou forgives the sin, the slave didn't mean it." Jingbei Hou was walking with his head down, and he was suddenly hit by someone.

The delicate voice of a woman came from her ears, and when the Marquis of Jingbei heard the sound, she raised her eyes and saw a maid kneeling on the ground with her head down, and she was holding a cup of tea in her hand. With that bang, the teacup was knocked over.

Jingbei Hou looked down at his shirt, there were some water stains on his chest, and his brows were slightly furrowed.

"The slave and maid deserve to die, ask the Hou Ye to forgive the sin." The maid lowered her head and hurriedly begged for mercy.

The frowning brows gradually relaxed, and Jingbei Hou waved his hand, "Get up, be careful in the future." ”

Only then did the maid raise her head and smile at Jingbei Hou, "Thank you, Master Hou." ”

Looking at this face, Jingbei Hou felt a little familiar, "Which yard are you a maid?" ”

"Slave Huan'er, serve in the lady's room." Huan'er replied with a smile, Jingbei Hou asked her like this, obviously he had some impression of her, and it seemed that her previous chance encounter was not a complete failure.

Jingbei Hou nodded invisibly, no wonder she was a little familiar, it turned out to be the person who was serving in Zhou's room. Pointing to the teacup in her hand, "This is for Madame?" ”

Huan'er nodded obediently and replied: "Yes, the doctor said that Mrs. is not very well-founded, and it is best to drink some ginseng tea every day." ”

"Madame's body is not good?" Jingbei Hou keenly grasped the point, "What's wrong with Madame's body?" Make it clear to Ben Hou. ”

"No, no, the slave said the wrong thing." Huan'er hurriedly replied, "Madame is not in bad health, she is ......."

Huan'er hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The slave maid also heard about it, Madame, she seems to be a little worried today, and she is not in good health." ”

Hearing this, Jingbei Hou fell into silence, why did Zhou worry too much, I think it still has something to do with Zhou Jinzhi. In the end, it was his mother's family, and Zhou really deliberately concealed him.

"Master Hou, did the slave maid say the wrong thing......" Huan'er's tone was timid, and she looked at Jingbei Hou with autumn-like eyes, and when Jingbei Hou just raised her eyes to look, she immediately moved her eyes away.

"You just said your name is Huan'er?"

Huan'er bit her lip and nodded slightly.

I saw that the Marquis of Jingbei then said: "Huan'er, since you are serving in the courtyard of your wife, you must always pay attention to it, and from today on, you will have to come to Benhou every day to report the situation of your wife." ”

"No one is to be told about this, not even Madame." Jingbei Hou looked serious, "Do you understand what Ben Hou means?" ”

Huan'er didn't answer immediately, but looked surprised, and was stunned for a moment before nodding in response, "Hou Ye is worried about Madame's body, the slave and maid understand, please rest assured, the slave and maid will serve Madame wholeheartedly, and will accurately report to Hou Ye." ”

These words fell into the ears of Jingbei Hou, and he felt very good at hearing them. He nodded slightly, this is a clever girl.

Jingbei Hou was very satisfied with Huan'er's reaction, and what he didn't know was that Huan'er was also happy at the moment. She finally has a chance to approach Hou Ye in the open.

In the Moyun Pavilion

Xiao Mu told Huo Sijin what had just happened, "Sure enough, as Gongzi expected, Huan'er successfully approached Master Hou. ”

Huo Sijin put down the book in his hand, and said with a light smile: "Tell Huan'er, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, and now she hasn't entered the eyes of Jingbei Hou, do your duty first, and don't be in a hurry." ”

In fact, Huo Sijin also asked Huan'er to try his luck, and he didn't expect to succeed at one time. There was only a small crack between Jingbei Hou and Zhou, far from the point where Huan'er could see the stitches. But he didn't want to, just like this, Huan'er really succeeded in entering the sight of Jingbei Hou. Although Jingbei Hou doesn't have that kind of mind about Huan'er at the moment, I have to say that this is a good start.

His fingers rubbed slightly, and Huo Sijin sneered: Probably Huan'er really has some chance with Jingbei Hou......

Everything is going well in the house, and so is the court. The five princes continued to ask for a thorough investigation of the military salaries at the border gates, but the emperor finally nodded and agreed, and ordered the sixth prince Chu Yu to take charge of it, with the assistance of the military department and the household department.

The sixth prince, Chu Yu, was born by the noble concubine Lin, who was born in a noble family, and never got involved in factional struggles. In addition, Chu Zheng had already made sufficient preparations, and Huo Sijin was also relieved.

With nothing to do, Huo Sijin went to Puyin Temple to visit his mother Yang. Who would have thought that as soon as he entered the door, he saw Yang Shizheng and Yao Qianruo talking happily......
