Changsun Han did not kill Changsun Ye in the end, but issued an edict to exile him and all the concubines of the prince's mansion to the Longnan area, saying that it was exile, but in fact it was house arrest and could not return to Beijing for the rest of his life.

As soon as the will came, a big stone in Xia Zhihan's heart finally fell to the ground, but who knew that the will that followed was to abide by the previous marriage contract and exile Xia Mengxi to Longnan together.

Xia Mengning stood in front of the desk to practice calligraphy, and did not pause after listening to Jiu'er's words, until he finished writing a note, then put down the pen in his hand and said with a smile: "Xia Mengxi has today, and it is not in vain that I have endured these days!" ”

After speaking, he said to Wu Qing on the side: "You go and help me take care of it, send a few people to go, and 'take care' of the big sister on the way." ”

Wu Qing knew in his heart that as early as when Xia Mengxi returned home, Xia Mengning had a murderous intention, but at that time, due to the relationship between the eldest grandson and the night, it was difficult to do it, and now Xia Mengxi was exiled to Longnan by the emperor's order, and this opportunity is rare.

Wu Qing turned his head down, Xia Mengning washed his hands with the water brought by Jiu'er, and when he saw that it was still early, he changed his clothes and went to Meifangyuan with Jiu'er.

Ge's because of the toss during the production period, he has not been raised during the confinement period, Xia Mengning brought the porridge cooked with medicinal herbs and red dates, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Xia Chuanyuan sitting in front of the bed.

Xia Mengning said with a smile: "My daughter brought red date porridge to her mother, but she didn't think about it or slowed down her father." ”

As he spoke, Xia Chuanyuan turned around, saw Xia Mengning, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's hard for you to have this intention, come, bring it over and give it to your mother to taste." ”

When Ge Shi heard this, he stopped a little weakly: "Don't, the concubine is already full......

Xia Mengning covered her mouth and laughed a few times, handed the food box to Jade, sat down next to Ge Shi and said, "Mother don't worry, Daddy is teasing you, let Jade take it down first and warm it, and wait for Mother to eat it at night." ”

Xia Chuanyuan smiled, Ge Shi glanced at him with disgust, and said, "Nurse, bring the child over." ”

said, and said to Xia Mengning: "Ning'er, take a look, this little guy is interesting." ”

After a while, the nurse walked in with a child in her arms, Xia Mengning took it carefully, the child was asleep, but a small hand was put to his mouth and pecked, his eyes were tightly closed, and his long eyelashes were good-looking.

Xia Mengning's heart softened into a puddle of water, gently put her face on the child's face, and kissed him gently.

Xia Chuanyuan smiled, "Ning'er, I'm discussing with your mother about naming the child." ”

When Xia Mengning heard this, she raised her head and said, "Daddy has an idea?" ”

Ge Shi continued: "I chose three words, Shu, Kang, Bo, what do you see? ”

Xia Mengning nodded approvingly, "Sure enough, they are all excellent, which one does Daddy like?" ”

Xia Chuanyuan smiled, but said, "Tell me what you mean." ”

Xia Mengning blinked, looked at the child in her arms, and said softly: "My younger brother is what my father and mother are looking forward to together, and I have experienced so many things, in my daughter's opinion, only a healthy word can express the expectations of my father and mother for my younger brother, be healthy and grow up happily, this is what my father and mother really want." ”

After speaking, Xia Chuanyuan couldn't help but nod, "I discussed with your mother just now, and I was very fond of this word, and now since you like it too, then it will be called Xia Zhikang, and after the ninety-ninth day, a banquet will be set up and entered into the family tree." ”

I am afraid that Xia Chuanyuan's voice was a little louder, and the child in Xia Mengning's arms moved slowly, and then opened his eyes lightly and looked at Xia Mengning.

Xia Mengning saw that his big eyes were dark and cute, and couldn't help but stretch out his finger to poke his little face, "Kang'er, I'm my sister." ”

Ge Shi looked disgusted, leaned over and said, "Where can he understand?" ”

At this moment, the little man in his arms suddenly bent his lips and laughed, revealing the pink gums that had no teeth in his mouth, Xia Meng saw it and said with a smile: "Mother, father, look, Kang'er is smiling at me." ”

Xia Chuanyuan looked at it, and he was also happy, took the child from Xia Mengning's hand, and stretched out his hand to tease, "Kang'er, I'm Daddy, come, laugh." ”

When the little Xia Zhikang saw it, his big eyes blinked, and he grinned again.

Xia Chuanyuan was very happy, holding it in his hand and refusing to let go, until Xiao Liuzi came to pass the word, then he reluctantly put down the child in his hand and went out.

Xia Zhikang was still young, he was teased by Xia Chuanyuan for a while, he fell asleep in the nurse's arms and squatted down, stretched out his hand and gently stroked his sleeping little face, his heart was infinitely tender and very happy.

When Ge Shi saw it, he said softly: "Ning'er, come here." ”

Xia Mengning stretched out her hand to cover the corner of the quilt for Xia Zhikang, and then softly walked to Ge's bed and sat down, "Mother, what's wrong?" ”

Ge's face was pale, and he said: "Ning'er, just now your father said that the eldest lady was sent to Longnan for exile by the emperor's decree, is this true?" ”

Xia Mengning frowned and said, "Mother is still in confinement, why did Daddy tell you these things?" ”

Ge shook his head, "Alas! I'm just afraid that she will jump over the wall in a hurry and involve you, even if she leaves, this revenge will fall on our heads, the eldest young master, he will not let us go so easily. ”

Xia Mengning patted Ge's hand, "Mother, from the front of the Ning family's grandmother triple trouble, let's not still come over, mother rest assured, now don't say that your daughter can protect you, just look at your father, and you will never let you be wronged, you are now the emperor's wife, and you also have a son, what are you afraid of?" ”

Ge Shi shook his head, looked at Xia Mengning and said: "Ning'er, in this house, it's not so simple, for my mother, I just hope you can be careful, before you get married, you must be careful." ”

Xia Mengning looked at Ge Shi, but did not speak.

Ge Shi thought for a while and said: "The backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion must be without the master mother, since I am already a flat wife, then you say, who will your father give this position to the main room?" ”

Xia Mengning was stunned in her heart, she hadn't been worried about this problem, but even if she was worried now, it was in vain, the development of things was unexpected, how could she be unpredictable.

Xia Meng thought for a while and said, "Mother, in our house, there are only you and the Wei family now, the Wei family is already a silent master on weekdays, but the mother has to know that being able to give birth to a son under the nose of such a selfish person as the Fang family and raise it to such a big age is enough to see the Wei family's scheming." Actually, what I'm most worried about is my grandmother's, I'm afraid that I'll have to find another young one from the side door to be my steproom......"

Ge's face was stunned, but he didn't speak for a long time, and after thinking for a while, he said: "If this is the case, it should also be, the housewife of the house, naturally she wants to find someone who is generous and decent, and her net worth is also worthy." ”

Xia Mengning's eyes darkened, "If that's the case, I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with." ”

Ge Shi looked at Xia Mengning, finally sighed, and did not speak.

Xia Mengning returned to the Bamboo Branch Garden, still remembering this matter in her heart, so she was a little absent-minded when she started eating, Jiu'er stood on the side, and specially picked out the steamed salmon that Xia Mengning usually likes to eat, Xia Mengning looked at the white fish, and for some reason, she suddenly thought of the words that people are swordsman, I am fish, and for a while she thought of the things and people in this house, she was not in the mood to eat, put the chopsticks in her hand aside, and said to Jiu'er: "Rinse your mouth." ”

Jiu'er hurriedly brought the tea over, waited for Xia Mengning to rinse his mouth, and then put away the dishes and chopsticks.

Xia Mengning sat on the side and drank tea and asked, "Jiu'er, do you know when the eldest lady will be sent away?" ”

When Jiu'er heard this, she turned around and said, "Back to Miss's words, the slave maid listened to the mother-in-law in front of her, as if she left after noon." ”

Xia Mengning said 'um', knowing that Xia Mengxi's exile this time was a sure thing, she immediately relaxed, in her previous life, she was harmed by Xia Mengxi and the Fang family to the point that she had no everything, and in the end she forced her child to death, in this life, Fang's mother and daughter were still vicious, and wanted to put themselves to death more than once, Xia Mengning took the tea lid and stroked the tea powder on her face, took a sip and said: "Jiu'er, accompany me out of the house for a while." ”

Jiu'er nodded, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks with his hands and feet, and took them down.

After changing her clothes, Xia Mengning carefully traced her eyebrows and lips, and even used powder that she didn't usually use to dot her face, Jiu'er was very skillful, and after a while, she pulled Xia Mengning's green silk full of hair into a half-hanging bun, and half of the green silk was draped behind her head.

Jiu'er took a pair of white jade pendant earrings from the box and put them on Xia Mengning, the transparent jade-colored pendant set off the girl's fair side face and neck more and more cutely.

Xia Mengning looked left and right, took out the hairpin rewarded by the emperor from the box, and inserted it diagonally in his hair.

was originally a beauty who captivated the country and the city, but now it has been carefully decorated, which shows the softness and coquettishness of her daughter's family.

"Jiu'er, go get my azure cloak!"

Jiu'er nodded, went to the inner room to open the box, took out the cloak, and after putting it on Xia Mengning, she tied a wishful knot at the front end.

Xia Mengning curled her lips and smiled, "Jiu'er, why don't you ask, who am I going to see when I dress up so carefully?" ”

Jiu'er bit her lower lip and sorted out Xia Mengning's clothes, her fair face flushed with a slight pink, "The slave knows that the young lady is going to settle her mind." ”

Xia Mengning nodded, Xindao Jiu'er is really a person who is good at observing words and feelings, and he is not shy about it at the moment, and said directly: "Let's wait for this day, it's been a long time." ”

Xia Mengning knew that Jiu'er was insulted by Xia Zhihan at that time, not only Biyi and Xia Mengxi, but even the Fang family must have a share.

Jiu'er turned her head sideways, tears hanging on her long eyelashes, "Miss, the slave doesn't know how to repay you, if you are not willing to help the slave and the slave, the slave's revenge, I am afraid that I will not be able to show Xue in this life." ”

Xia Mengning couldn't bear it, and said softly: "Jiu'er, don't be sad, now it's their retribution, I know, you're a good girl......"

Jiu'er turned around, covered her mouth and cried softly, her shoulders shaking.

Xia Mengning took out a silk handkerchief and handed it over, Jiu'er raised her head and looked at Xia Mengning with teary eyes, "Miss, but the eldest young master, he ...... It's still there, and the slave is afraid ......"

Xia Mengning stretched out her hand to wipe her tears, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, with me, I won't let him hurt you." ”

Jiu'er nodded, reached out to wipe the tears on her face, packed her things, and the two walked out of the door together.
