When I first saw and Qi Zhen returned to the palace, everyone in the palace knew that the princess had good news.

"Congratulations to the princess, congratulations to the prince" The first time I saw the second gate of the Xin Yuan, Lingyu and a group of little girls went over together, and when I saw the first time and Qi Zhen, I immediately saluted and said hello, with a happy smile on my face.

Hatsumi smiled, "You guys have made an appointment to come and ask for a reward, right?" ”

Lingyu replied with a grin, "Isn't this the day that the slaves are looking forward to?" The princess is happy, and the slaves and maids are happy from the bottom of their hearts. ”

When the other little girls heard Lingyu's words, they all echoed.

When I first saw it, I glanced at Lingyu and said to Xia Yu, "Look at this Lingyu, if you don't see it for a day, it will become so slippery, and it will take a few more days, I don't know what it will become." ”

"It's okay to change no matter what, the slave is still the princess and your maid." Lingyu walked to Xia Yu's side and said with a smile, she is really happy for the princess, the princess is happy to represent that her position in the palace is more stable, who will dare to bully her in the future?

"Today, your princess will not be rewarded, this king will reward a few of you, Lingyu, go to the account room to get two taels of silver hair for one person, and you must serve the princess carefully in the future." Qi Zhen is in a good mood, it seems that the girls in this Xinyuan are all dedicated to the first sight.

The maids in the house are happy to thank the princess for her reward, two taels of silver is equal to a month's salary for them, and they all secretly say in their hearts that the princess really cherishes the princess, as long as they serve the princess well and are loyal to the princess, it is the best source.

Chujian glared at Qi Zhen with a smile, but it caused Qi Zhen to laugh even more happily.

Lingyu and Ziyao blessed their bodies, and retreated with a room of maids, so they naturally went to receive the reward.

When I first saw her, I suddenly remembered Fang'er, why didn't she see her for so long when she came back? Isn't she already serving in this house? She looked at Xia Yu suspiciously, and Xia Yu also felt strange and shook her head at the first sight.

Chujian raised his eyebrows, didn't he go to Aunt Du's house again?

"Xia Yu, go cook fetal medicine for the princess, she hasn't drunk it today." Qi Zhen remembered what Mrs. Yu had told before leaving the Jade Mansion that she must drink fetal pills after returning from the first meeting.

"I'm not happy, I don't need tocolytics." When I first saw the bitterness of the medicine, my eyes and nose were wrinkled.

Qi Yi hugged Chujian and sat on the soft couch, "This is for your own good, you don't need to drink a few more times." ”

Hatsumi pursed his lips, "That medicine is so bitter." ”

Qi Zhen said gently, "If you pinch your nose and drink it, don't think about it, it won't be bitter." ”

"You're lying to the kid!" Hatsumi laughed out loud and slapped him.

"You also know that you are not a child anymore, and you are so afraid of drinking medicine." Qi Zhen nodded at her with a smile, but when he turned his head to Xia Yu, his eyes were a little stern and cold, "Xia Yu, these days when the princess is pregnant, you all have to pay attention to some things, especially the things brought from the small kitchen, you must carefully check them before they can be delivered, except for the old lady, no matter what other courtyards send to the princess, you must wake up and pay attention, there can be no accidents, understand?" ”

Xia Yu was stunned for a moment, and immediately figured out what was at stake, she nodded with a serious expression, "The slave understands." ”

I was a little surprised at first sight, was Qi Zhen afraid that someone would be bad for her and the child in her belly? This kind of thing...... Qi Zhen experienced it when he was very young, he was afraid that the same thing would fall on her, right?

After Xia Yu went down, he held Qi Zhen's hand for the first time and asked in a low voice, "Qi Zhen, do you think there will be someone who can't tolerate this child?" ”

Qi Zhen shook his head, sat on the soft couch, hugged Chujian and leaned on his arms, his chin rested on her shoulder, and his voice was low, "Chujian, I must protect the safety of you and the child, the old lady has lost two children before me, who is the poisoner, I have never been able to find out, although later those concubines were killed by Aunt Du's cane, maybe one of them will be the murderer, but I still don't worry." ”

At first sight, she was dumbfounded, "Old lady, she ...... Lost two children? ”

Even the old lady was tricked? How shrewd and insidious the murderer was, how could he be killed by Aunt Du's cane so easily? Unless......

When I first saw it, my face suddenly turned slightly pale, impossible! If the murderer is Aunt Du, then why did the old lady still rest assured that the entire palace would be taken care of by her for so many years?

Qi Zhen saw that her face was wrong when she first saw her, thinking that she was scared, and secretly angry that she shouldn't say this to scare her, "Don't worry when I see you for the first time, I will definitely protect you, those things in the past will never happen to you, don't worry." ”

Chujian leaned into his arms, "Well, Qi Zhen, I believe in you, I believe that you will definitely protect us." ”

"Tired or not? Do you want to lie down? Qi Zhen saw the eyes of complete trust at first sight, his heart warmed, and he vowed to protect this person like a treasure.

"I'm not tired, Qi Zhen, that ...... How could the old lady hand over this home to Aunt Du back then? Hatsumi asked.

Qi Zhen pursed his lips, and only said after a while, "Aunt Du is a ...... People who are difficult to see through, if the old lady hadn't let go of this power to her back then, Aunt Du would not have been so peaceful all these years, and I have been on expeditions all the year round, and it is difficult to take care of the old lady's safety. ”

Chujian gasped, was the old lady trying to protect herself?

"So, the old lady wants me to take over the power of the house as soon as possible, but she is also afraid that Aunt Du will deal with me?" Hatsumi asked.

"It doesn't matter if you are in charge or not, there are still people who don't like you, but as long as you have great power in your hands, those people will still be more or less scrupulous." Qi Zhen said in a low voice, although he suspected that Aunt Du did what happened back then, but there was no evidence, and he couldn't drive her out of the palace, after all, she was still the concubine of the old prince, and she was Qi Min's mother.

Hatsumi nodded clearly, "Qi Zhen, have you found out about the silver number?" I don't think it's possible that Aunt Du hasn't touched a single silver over the years, if we find evidence, will we be able to make her settle down? ”

Qi Zhen's deep eyes flashed with a gleam, and he asked with a smile, "What do you think of Aunt Du and Yinhao?" ”

Chu Jian looked back at Qi Zhen deeply, and said a little embarrassed, "I'm just guessing casually, and I don't know if it's right or not." ”

"Let's talk about it, some clues have been found out about the matter, and I believe it will be resolved soon." Qi Zhen encouraged her.

"The silver of our palace has always existed in Xianghui Yinhao, but compared to Xianghui, the interest rate of Taifeng Silver is higher, I suspect that Aunt Du will delay our silver every month to deposit in Xianghui because she put the silver in Taifeng, although our monthly income is not particularly much, but it is also a lot, just the silver that collects interest, it is already a large sum, but Xianghui and Taifeng have always been opposites, so I suspect that the shopkeepers of these two silver numbers are also colluding with each other, maybe not only Aunt Du is doing this, Others also earn silver in the same way, and then share the profits with the treasurer in the silver account. Hatsumi said something a little confused, it was all her suspicion, and she wasn't completely sure, so her tone was uncertain.

Qi Zhen was very surprised when he heard it, he didn't expect that he would think of this layer at first sight, and he had a very keen observation at first sight.

"What's wrong? Isn't that so? Qi Zhen's silence made Chu Jian a little discouraged.

"No, you guessed it, but there's a bigger conspiracy that hasn't been settled yet, so I won't let you continue to investigate this." Qi Zhen exclaimed in surprise.

Stunned at first sight, "A bigger conspiracy? ”

"Well, this is about Du Shangshu's collusion with the silver number, I believe that Aunt Du is also clear, if this matter is accidentally investigated, I am afraid that our Yunwang Mansion will be dragged down in the future." Qi Zhen didn't want Hatsumi to know much about the bloody storm outside, but since Hatsumi could detect the relationship between the silver number, sooner or later he would also find out the key point, rather than letting her take risks in the future, it was better for him to tell her first.

"Is it that serious?" Hatsumi looked at him worriedly.

"It's all under control, and it will be fine soon, rest assured." Qi Zhen let go of a reassuring smile, he has been busy with this matter recently, and I believe that it will not be long before everything will be resolved.

"Qi Zhen, I'm worried that if this matter is broken, will Aunt Du do anything to the old lady? I always felt that Aunt Du had a deep resentment towards the old lady. When she first saw this, her eyebrows were frowning, while she was protecting herself, should she also be careful that this Aunt Du did something to the old lady?

Qi Zhen said, "If it weren't for the old lady, the old princess would have married Aunt Du as the princess, and if it weren't for Aunt Du having given birth to a daughter for the old prince at that time, the old princess would not have accepted her as a concubine." ”

Chu Jian choked for a moment, and asked with some uncertainty, "Then Aunt Du is born out of wedlock?" ”

Qi Yi glanced at her, "The old prince and Aunt Du made a private agreement for life, it seems that when the old prince was going to propose marriage, he was ordered to go to the outside of the Saiwai, and he went for two years, and when he came back, he had already married the old lady." ”

Chu Jian muttered, "This old prince is really ...... The style is bold, and the family has children before they get married, Qi Zhen, why are you and your father not like each other at all. ”

Look at how open the old prince is, in this feudal society, he can let the dignified and scholarly daughter secretly Chen Cang with him, and there is such a group of concubines at home, how debauched and debauched, but there has not been a single room for so many years.

Qi Zhen chuckled and glared at her angrily, "Do you want me to accept a few more concubines and take a few more rooms?" ”

Hatsumi bit his hand, "You dare! ”

Qi Zhen rubbed the back of her head with her cheek, "Well, it's enough for me to have you." ”

Hatsumi grinned, turned around and hugged him, "Don't you feel sorry?" You haven't had the opportunity to meet other women in your life, right? ”

Qi Zhen kissed her delicate lips and asked with a smile, "Will you give me this opportunity to touch?" ”

"Don't even think about it!" Hatsumi kissed him the cheek and shouted domineeringly.

Qi Zhen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Lingyu and Ziyao, who had already returned, smiled when they heard the laughter of the prince and the princess outside the house.

It wasn't long before the old lady came.

Mrs. Ji was surprised and happy when she knew that she was happy at first sight, she was surprised that she might be hurt by this at first sight, and she was happy that if she gave birth to a child at first sight, then the position of the world could be determined, and many unnecessary disputes could be avoided.

Unable to bear the joy in her heart, the old lady came to the Xinyuan in person, and carefully told the first time to pay attention to those problems, to eat more and write what to make, and asked the people in the small kitchen to come over, and told them to take good care of the princess, if the princess made any mistakes, they would not end well.

The first time I saw it, I had been quietly listening to the old lady's advice, and promised one by one, the old lady was really concerned about herself, she was moved in her heart, no matter what, whether it was for herself or Qi Zhen, or the old lady, she would definitely give birth to the child safely, and no one could hurt her child.

In the end, the old lady also asked Lingyu and the others to pay careful attention to what they usually ate when they first met, this time is different from the past, and the things must be inspected before they can be presented to the princess.

What the old lady explained was similar to what Qi Zhen said before, and several girls were even more vigilant in their hearts, knowing that this palace was really a tiger's den in Longtan, and they were fighting everything to protect the safety of the second girl and the second girl's child.

In the end, the old lady insisted on leaving Yinqin to take care of Chujian this time, Yinqin has been trained by the old lady for many years, and is more familiar with the turbulent undercurrents in the palace than Lingyu, and there is no reason to refuse at Chujian, and accepts the kindness of the old lady.

When Aunt Du knew the news of the first meeting, she was drawing, and when she heard Yahuan's words, her hand shook, and the landscape painting she had drawn in the morning was invalid.

She put down the brush and sat down in the armchair, her eyelashes lowered, her gaze seemed to be very calm, but her fingertips trembled slightly, she pursed her lips and was silent for a long time.

After half a ring, she raised her head expressionlessly, quietly rolled up the obsolete landscape painting, threw it in the paper basket, reopened a blank sheet of paper, and drew a plant.

It is a kind of wild vegetable, called purslane, which is often picked and pickled by the old surname to make a cold dish, which has a smooth and delicious taste, and is also used to make pancakes.

It's just that this kind of wild vegetable, if a pregnant woman eats it, it is easy to slip and have a miscarriage.

Her position as princess was taken away by a slut surnamed Ji.

The throne of the prince was taken away by her son.

The present ...... How could she be willing to let this slut's grandson inherit it?

She had lost so much, how could she be blind if she didn't regain some?

"Yun Se, didn't Miss Biao say that she wanted to come and stay for a few days? Tell her it's time. Putting down the pen, Aunt Du looked out the window with cold eyes, and whispered to Yun Se beside her.

Yun Ther owes a debt, "Yes"

"Is Uncle back?" Aunt Du asked again.

"Back to my aunt, my uncle is back."

"Well, come with me, I have something to say to the uncle and the eldest lady." Aunt Du picked up the white paper with purslane and tore it into pieces, threw it into the paper basket, and watched silently for a while before she turned around and walked out of the house and walked straight to the courtyard of the big house.

In the evening, Aunt Du and the eldest lady went to congratulate the first meeting, and sent a lot of supplements to the first meeting, these first sights naturally did not dare to eat, and after politely accepting it, let Zi Yao take it to solve it.

When I first saw her, I always wanted to ask Lingyu why Fang'er hadn't seen anyone all day but had no chance, and after she received Aunt Du and the eldest lady, she was already full of fatigue, and she was escorted by Qi Zhen to rest.

When I woke up the next day, it was already sun.

After the first meeting, all the meals were handed over to Yinqin to take care of, which no one has an opinion on, Yinqin is more careful than anyone else, and understands the nature of a lot of food, and knows which ones are good for the first sight and which are not good for the first sight.

When I first saw that I had just eaten eggs, I drank white porridge and asked Lingyu, "Lingyu, where is Fang'er?" Why haven't you seen her yet? ”

Lingyu smiled a little strangely, "She, she fell ill after hearing that you were happy, Princess, and she hasn't recovered yet." ”

"Sick?" At first sight, he raised his eyebrows and squinted at Lingyu.

Lingyu said, "That day, after the princess returned to her mother's house, she dressed herself up in a fancy way, and the prince stepped into the house, she immediately greeted her, and the prince said that she didn't need to serve, she had to serve the princess to change clothes and eat, and then the princess went back to the study with a black face, she wanted to follow, but she didn't have this opportunity to ......"

Chujian smiled and glanced at Lingyu, "Didn't let her go to the study with her?" What good things have you done? ”

Lingyu grinned, "Of course, she can't leave until she finishes all the work in the house, and she's not on an errand in the study." ”

Zi Yao and Xia Yu both pinched Lingyu, "It's really clever." ”

"That is, the princess is not here, and the slave must protect the princess from falling into the wolf's mouth." Lingyu dodged Xia Yu's hand and raised her jaw proudly.

Yin Qin looked at the four masters and servants talking and laughing without restraint, and she was a little envious in her heart, she and Lingyu were not familiar with each other, so she naturally felt a little out of place.

"But I think this Fang'er must not have given up yet, and I don't know what will happen next." Xia Yu was not so relieved, she felt that this Fang'er was a person who would not die if she did not achieve her goal.

"No matter what she wants to do, what am I afraid of with you four generals around?" Chujian glanced at the four of them with a smile, and in her heart, she no longer regarded Yinqin as an outsider.

Yin Qin glanced at the first meeting gratefully, and a warm current flowed through her heart.

Lingyu smiled and took Yinqin's hand, "Now that we have Sister Yinqin, we will definitely serve the princess and the world better in the future." ”

Hatsumi put down the white porcelain bowl, "I'm full, let's go out for a walk!" ”

The garden is full of branches and leaves, flowers are vibrant, the weather is cool and pleasant, I don't like spring at first sight, I feel that the weather in spring is too humid, but the weather in the spring in Ningcheng is a little different from the south where she used to live, it seems that the air humidity is lower and more comfortable.

"Princess, be careful." As she passed through the cobblestone path of the garden, Lingyu held on to Hatsumi and served with a careful look.

At first sight, she smiled bitterly, she obviously felt that the people around her were more rigorous because of her pregnancy, as if she was being cared for as if she was fragile glass, but she didn't feel anything herself, except for wanting to sleep, she didn't have any reaction to pregnancy, no joy, and she couldn't eat, she felt the same as usual, and she didn't feel like a pregnant woman at all.

After sitting down in the Octagonal Pavilion, Zi Yao, who was called to care about Fang'er by the first meeting, came back, and her face was not very good.

"Princess, the slave maid can't find Fang'er, she is not in the house, I heard that Yunse came to her just now."

...
