Mu Hanchuan woke up on the second day under the care of Mu Hanyan, and at this time, Qin Siya mediated it, and the kings of the two dynasties met secretly in the guest house of the Northern Dynasty.

"Let Concubine Heng go, open the five trading ports on the border and withdraw all the officials of the Northern Dynasties from Pengcheng, otherwise, the army of the Southern Dynasties will press the border, dig up the Huaishui, and let you have no more water sources." Xiao Mo sat on the left and took the lead in speaking, his tone was flat, but it made people feel pressured.

A cold light flashed in Mu Hanchuan's eyes, and he said, "If you dare to dig up the Huaishui, you are not afraid of being blamed by the people?"

"You robbed my concubine first, humiliated my reputation last, the people are indignant, and they can't wait to go into battle in person, who will put their beaks." Xiao Mo was already a little impatient, and said: "Time waits for no one, you'd better make a decision early, otherwise it will be too late for me to give an order." ”

Mu Hanchuan suddenly understood something, and sneered: "No wonder, it turned out that you wanted to use Concubine Heng as an excuse to seek benefits, you are really a pair made in heaven, one is a water-based poplar, and the other is sanctimonious." ”

There are many guards in the harem of the Southern Dynasty, why is it so easy for Xia Man to be smuggled out, I am afraid that everything is Xiao Mo's plan, such a scheming person, Mu Hanchuan couldn't help but feel a tingling in his back.

Hearing the word "water-based poplar", Xiao Mo couldn't help but sink his face and said, "Who do you say is a water-based poplar?"

Mu Hanchuan suddenly laughed, looked at Xiao Mo, and said, "You don't know yet, Concubine Heng is pregnant, but she is someone else's child." ”

Sure enough, Xiao Mo was stunned and said in a daze: "Who's?"

"You might as well ask Chikage." Mu Hanchuan was very satisfied with Xiao Mo's demeanor, the dignified king was cuckolded by the favored concubine, and it was very happy to think about it.

"Then you don't need to take her back to the palace, you are ready to fight." Xiao Mo looked angry, and was about to leave.

"Emperor Jiahe is angry." Mu Handong pushed the door in, stopped Xiao Mo, and said: "The Northern Dynasty agreed to the conditions you said, but I want a piece of the salt industry in Pengcheng." ”

Xiao Mo pondered for a moment and said, "The Zhukou salt well belongs to you." ”

Mu Handong arched his hand, intending to agree, and said: "Concubine Heng has been taken by the little sister to wait at the post station, and Emperor Jiahe can go to pick up people." ”

In this way, the negotiations were over, the Northern Dynasty withdrew all the officials of Pengcheng, and opened the border trade ports, and a war was averted.

"So easy to say yes?" Mu Hanchuan looked at Xiao Mo who was walking away, a little unwilling.

Mu Handong patted him on the shoulder, and then said: "It doesn't matter if it's pros or cons for a while, it's a long time coming." ”

Mu Hanchuan almost popped out two words from between his teeth: "Hateful!"

Xiao Mo didn't dare to delay, and he was afraid that Mu Shi would regret it after seeing his intentions, so he hurriedly asked Yun Soul Yuluo to go to the post station to pick up Xia Man, while he waited anxiously on the official road.

After a while, the two drove the carriage towards Xiao Mo, and they were relieved to see Xia Man sitting in the car intact.

"Go back to the palace."

After getting into the carriage, Xiao Mo cautiously hugged Xia Man and said softly, "I'm late." ”

Xia Man's eyes were red, a little sour, and he wanted to ask him a lot of questions, but he couldn't speak, so he just let him hold it.

Galloping all the way, Xiao Mo and his party rushed back to Yecheng, Qianying was waiting in the Fantasy Pavilion early, and when he saw Xiao Mo hugging Xia Man in, he asked, "Is she okay?" ”

"Give her the pulse, I'm afraid that Mu Shi will do something to her." Xiao Mo gently put Xia Man on the couch.

Qianying saw Xiao Mo's serious expression, so he hurriedly gave Xia Man a pulse, his medical skills were taught by the master himself, and he would know if there was a little abnormality, fortunately, Xia Man's pulse was no different from ordinary people, but it was more fluent and smooth, which was in line with the characteristics of Ximai.

"The body is not abnormal, but there is joy, congratulations." Qianying congratulated Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo held Xia Man's hand, rubbed it with his face, and said, "Why did Mu Hanchuan say that this child is yours?"

Qianying coughed dryly, with some embarrassment on her face, "Probably, it was she who tried to confuse Mu Hanchuan into talking about me, so I didn't know what to do." ”

"That is, you, if it were someone else, would have died a thousand times ago." Although Xiao Mo said it plainly, the coldness in his eyes did not decrease.

"Ahem, what, how are you going to explain to her about Yanliang Palace and the deliberate relaxation of palace defenses this time." Although Qianying was changing the topic, she also looked at Xiao Mo with some concern.

"You don't have to worry about it." Xiao Mo didn't care much at this time, and his heart was full of joy when he touched Xia Man's belly.

Qianying looked at Xiao Mo's appearance, understood it, and it was inconvenient to continue to disturb, so she gently closed the door and retreated.

Xiao Mo guarded Xia Man, and did not wake her up until night, and early the next morning, he arranged carriages and horses, and returned to the palace with Xia Man, who was still asleep.

In Yanliang Palace, Xiao Mo ordered people to burn incense and sprinkle it, and then placed Xia Man in the inner room, and found many melons, fruits and flowers to place everywhere, and for a time the quiet fragrance filled the entire dormitory.

Xu was too hungry, and smelled the smell of melons and fruits, Xia Man rubbed his nose, and then slowly opened his eyes, his eyes touched Xiao Mo, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I'm hungry." ”

"Prepare meals." Xiao Mo saw that Xia Man woke up, his heart was happy, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and took a soft pillow behind her, before saying: "You slept for a day and a night, and if you don't wake up, I don't know what to do." ”

Xia Manshi had an empty stomach and was so hungry that he saw that the plate by the couch was full of melons and fruits, so he took a fruit and nibbled on it.

Xiao Mo wanted to stop it, but he didn't have time, so he only said: "These are for you to smoke the palace." ”

"It's not enough to eat a few of your fruits." Xia Man bit hard, thinking about the previous things, he was overwhelmed, and choked: "You used me as bait in exchange for Pengcheng, and opened up trade gates, and now you are not satisfied with eating a few fruits from you?"

When he was imprisoned in Beichen Palace, Xia Man figured out that he could be easily taken away, I am afraid that there is something strange, and then when he saw the results of the negotiations between the two dynasties in the back, he knew that it was Xiao Mo's handiwork again, but he was calculated by the person next to his pillow, and he was really angry, and he was sorry for himself if he didn't make up for something.

Xiao Mo had an apologetic look on his face, and said in a low voice: "Actually, I just want to plan it, I can stop them at the gate of the palace, how can I miss Xiao Xun and let you be taken to the Northern Dynasty, this matter is my fault, in order to make up for my mistake, Pengcheng Salt Industry is operated by you." ”

Hearing this, Xia Man's anger in his heart was extinguished a lot, he had the right to operate Pengcheng Salt Industry, and he was still worried, coughed, and pretended to be solemn, and said: "In this matter, your attitude is acceptable, so I won't pursue it with you, but how can you explain this Yanliang Palace." ”

As soon as he thought that he might be used as a stand-in, he became angry again, staring at Xiao Mo, his eyes full of inquiry.

Xiao Mo took out the painting, pointed to the person on the painting, and said solemnly: "This painting is only five points like a Wuwu, and when I first saw you, I never thought of her, as for this sentence 'Yanliang Wuwu Jue Houxiang' is not what I said." ”

Seeing that Xia Man's expression was a little relaxed, Xiao Mo folded the painting and burned it on the candle next to the couch, then held Xia Man's hand and said softly: "That's just a young ignorance, and it doesn't mean much when it's older, and the word 'Yanliang' is the wish of the mother's concubine, and now that you live, can't you understand my mind?"

"In that case, at that time in the palace, why did you say that Yanliang Palace was a cold and ominous place." Xia Man asked.

Xiao Mo was a little embarrassed, looked away, and said, "Isn't it just when you are a palace maid?" The place of the mother concubine naturally cannot be approached by others. ”

Xia Man accepted this reason, but if he forgave him so easily, he was afraid that it would fuel his arrogance again, and it would be like this in the future, so he would definitely learn a lesson, pretending to be tired and said: "I'm tired, I'm going to rest, you go back first." ”

Xiao Mo wanted to speak and stopped, only looked at Xia Man, then nodded, and said, "The meal has been prepared, you remember to use it later, and I will come to see you in the evening." ”

Xia Man only said "um", then turned around, pulled up the quilt, pretended to sleep, and heard Xiao Mo's footsteps getting farther away, so he raised his head slightly and looked at the door, he really couldn't see anyone, so he got off the bed and feasted on the meal.

"Intended purpose, Concubine Heng has six virtues, cherishes her family and country, enters into Concubine Heng, and lives in Liangyi Palace." Xiao Mo stood beside the ancient tree outside the hall, looking at Xia Man in the hall, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

The palace people who followed did not dare to delay, and hurriedly went to understand Weiyang Palace, Zhou Jinge was slightly surprised, but he also understood, set a date with the Ministry of Rites, made a dress and gold seal for the seal, and began to clean up the Liangyi Palace.

The will to enter the seal was in the sixth palace the next day, except for Liu Wuwu quietly complaining and arranging a few sentences, the other concubines also knew it, and prepared congratulatory gifts and sent them to Yanliang Palace one by one.

"Niangniang, there are a lot of congratulatory gifts from the harem." Xin'er was busy putting it away, sweating tiredly.

Xia Man leaned lazily against the window, looked at the brilliant cuckoo that opened outside, and said: "The large ones don't need to be placed, they will be moved directly to the Liangyi Palace in three days, and the small ones will be packed and put into storage." ”

The Ministry of Rites set the day for entering the seal, and just three days later, Xia Man was very bland, and there was no difference between the concubine and the concubine for themselves.
