In the capital, there is an undercurrent surging under the calm surface. ￣︶︺sんцつ

Seeing that in the first month, the atmosphere of the festival slowly dissipated, and everyone started firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea again, and they were on the right track to live.

Lu Ruoqing said privately: "Concubine Li Xian is quite calm, it's been a month, and there is still no movement." ”

Xiao Shaoxuan looked at her and hesitated.

"How?" Lu Ruoqing's eyes were sharp, looking at the cover that flashed in his eyes, "Could it be that something happened outside?" You didn't tell me in order to let me have a baby with peace of mind. ”

Xiao Shaoxuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Actually, it's okay for you to listen to it, so as not to think nonsense by yourself." ”

Lu Ruoqing asked, "What happened?" ”

"It's hard to say." Xiao Shaoxuan frowned slightly, "Concubine Li Xian's side will definitely not stop, she has sent people to have close contacts with many officials in private, and now she looks calm, it should just be a temporary seizure." ”

"Listen to you, and others are not honest? Is it King Qi? ”

"It's not." Xiao Shaoxuan replied: "Someone from the Nanshu Kingdom has come. ”

Lu Ruoqing was surprised: "Huh? Is it Nangong Shuyun's person? ”

Xiao Shaoxuan said: "At first, I thought it was someone sent by Nangong Shuyun, but according to the later report, the other party should not be accepted by Nangong Shuyun, but someone from the Nanshu Guolou family." ”

"What do you mean?" Lu Ruoqing was confused when she heard this, and said puzzledly: "What are the people of the Lou family doing in the Central Plains Capital?" Are they going to join forces with Concubine Li Xian? Impossible. ”

Xiao Shaoxuan frowned slightly, "I guess it's not, but it's not good to fish in troubled waters." ”

He said: "After all, if the pattern of the Central Plains is disturbed, it will be greatly beneficial to the Nanshu Kingdom, and it is not impossible for the people of the Lou family to take the opportunity to come over and get a piece of the pie." ”

Lu Ruoqing asked again, "What about Nangong Shuyun?" Isn't there any movement on his side? ”

Xiao Shaoxuan replied when he heard this: "According to the report, Nangong Shuyun was sent by the emperor to repair the emperor's mausoleum. It is estimated that ...... will not be able to catch up with this troubled water for the time being, but it is difficult to say whether the people he stayed in the capital will be involved. ”

Lu Ruoqing listened to this incident, and she was confused.

couldn't help sighing, "It turns out that there are so many things out there." No wonder you don't tell me, it sounds really annoying, and there are too many people with bad intentions. ”

Xiao Shaoxuan looked at her seriously and said seriously: "I'm telling you this to let you have a rough number in your heart, so that you don't have to think wildly, but I don't want you to be distracted because of this." ”

Lu Ruoqing smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I will definitely put fetal care in the first place......"

Her voice came to an abrupt halt.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Shaoxuan asked worriedly.

"I suddenly thought ......" Lu Ruoqing's beautiful eyes flowed and looked at him, "You say, my aunt shouldn't be the blood of the Lou family, right?" Because Nangong Shuyun has been inquiring about my aunt, the Lou family knew the news, so they came over. ”

Xiao Shaoxuan was silent for a moment after listening, and then said, "Well, I don't rule out this possibility." ”

Lu Ruoqing said: "Then you remember to inform Xiao Hao, be sure to take care of my aunt, and if necessary, transfer my aunt elsewhere first, otherwise it is likely to cause trouble." ”

Xiao Shaoxuan was a little uncomfortable.

Because Xiao Hao has been kind to Lu Ruoqing several times, and Lu Ruoqing is a person who knows how to repay kindness, she always pays attention unconsciously and hopes that Xiao Hao is safe and sound.

It's just that it's inconvenient for him to say.

Otherwise, it seems that he is suspicious of Lu Ruoqing, suspecting that she has something in mind for Xiao Hao, but it is even more embarrassing.

So he immediately said, "Okay, I'll let him know." ”

Lu Ruoqing thought for a while and said, "However, I hope that the people of the Lou family will simply come over to find my aunt, instead of colluding with Concubine Li Xian." ”

Xiao Shaoxuan nodded along with her words, "Well, I hope." ”

However, things were not what they expected.

The power of the Lou family in Nanshu is very huge, there are many family branches, and the children of the Lou family are inevitably mixed.

The son of the Lou family who came to the capital of the Central Plains this time was just a gentleman in the side branch, and was coaxed by Nangong Shuyun's people, saying that he could make a fortune by doing business in the Central Plains, so he followed in a daze.

and then arranged for this son to spend all day drinking and having fun.

Nangong Shuyun's people used the name of the Lou family, under the pretext of doing business, to inquire about the news, and others naturally thought that it was the meaning of the son of the Lou family.

And Nangong Shuyun, on the surface, went to repair the emperor's imperial mausoleum, but in fact, he went all the way north to the capital of the Central Plains.

"The four princes rest assured." The henchman came in and replied: "Xiao Shaoxuan's people have been quietly watching, and after following for several days, they should return the news of the Lou family's son-in-law to him, and there will be no mistakes." ”

Nangong Shuyun nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, let Xiao Shaoxuan misunderstand the Lou family." ”

The henchman asked, "When is Your Highness going to do it?" ”

The corners of Nangong Shuyun's lips outlined a smile, a little floating.

He said coolly, "Now." ”

.

Beijing, in the study of King Qi's mansion.

The little eunuch hurried to report the news, "Your Highness, the rouge shop on West Street is suddenly on fire. ”

King Qi's face changed when he heard this, "It's on fire!" ”

"yes." The little eunuch was a little puzzled and asked, "Your Highness, why do you send someone to keep an eye on the rouge shop on West Street?" Could it be the inheritance of a nobleman? ”

"Mouthy! Retire. "King Qi didn't have a good airway.

The little eunuch was so frightened that he didn't dare to ask again, so he quickly retreated.

"There was a fire." King Qi's fist tightened, and his expression was extremely gloomy, as if he was about to set off a violent storm and a stormy wave!

Because it wasn't a simple misfire.

Rather, it was the code he had agreed with Nangong Shuyun before.

As long as the rouge shop on West Street caught fire, it meant that he was asked to act according to the plan and was ready to start moving.

"Your Highness." Nian Ying's voice sounded outside the door and soon came in.

King Qi hurriedly restrained his expression and smiled.

He was as gentle as ever, and stepped forward to help, "Ah Ying, you slow down." ”

Nian Ying smiled: "It's okay, my belly is only five months old, it's not too pregnant, it's not much different from usual." ”

King Qi helped her sit down in a chair and said, "Then be careful." ”

"Well, I know you care about me." Nian Ying looked at him, smiled affectionately, and then said: "I asked people to stew white fungus lotus seed soup, and I specially sent it over to eat with you." ”

King Qi turned his head to look.

His gaze fell on the two bowls of white fungus lotus seed soup, and his eyes flickered.

Nian Ying asked the girl to put down the white fungus lotus seed soup.

I tasted a spoonful of it first, and said: "Today's lotus seed soup is stewed well, the lotus seeds are rotten, and the white fungus is also elastic, you hurry up and taste it while it's hot." ”

"Oh, okay." King Qi answered absentmindedly.

Nian Ying drank and gossiped, "When I talked about my stomach just now, it reminded me of Ruoqing." ”

"Ding!" King Qi's hand shook, and the soup spoon fell, and immediately made a crisp and piercing sound, which was particularly abrupt.

"What's wrong?" Nian Ying asked.

"It's fine." King Qi hurriedly covered it up and smiled back: "I just accidentally slipped my hand, so I didn't hold it." ”

Nian Ying is not a person with many eyes, so naturally she didn't pay attention to the panic in her husband's eyes.

She also smiled and said, "Drink it, the lotus seed soup is very delicious today." ”

"Really?" King Qi pretended to taste two sips, and said deliberately: "I don't think so, why do I drink the same as usual?" It's because your bowl of lotus seed soup has been added, so it's very delicious. ”

Nian Ying couldn't help laughing, "Nonsense! It's all boiled out in one pot. ”

"I don't believe it, I'm going to try it." King Qi said this deliberately, and then went to serve Nian Ying's bowl, and deliberately turned his back as if he was afraid of being robbed.

He cried out to his mouth, "I will taste you, taste yours." ”

As he spoke, he quietly shook a packet of medicinal powder into it, and pretended to drink lotus seed soup and stirred it quickly.

Nian Ying thought he was deliberately making her laugh.

It's fun and sweetness, "Okay, you can drink it, don't go around beating the bowl." ”

"I tasted it, this bowl of yours is very sweet." King Qi followed and laughed, then put the bowl back, and picked up his bowl again and drank it.

Nian Ying has never guarded against her husband, and she never imagined that her husband, who has always been gentle, would drug herself.

Naturally, he laughed for a while, and then took the lotus seed soup and drank it spoonful.

King Qi looked at it quietly, nervous, uneasy, and indescribably ashamed and guilty.

"Alright, I'm done." Nian Ying smiled and put down the spoon, and touched his belly, "Only when you eat enough can my baby grow more meat and be strong when he is born in the future." ”

King Qi's heart suddenly became even more ashamed.

"Hey, I'm sleepy after eating." Nian Ying suddenly yawned and rubbed his eyes.

"Then I'll send you back to rest." King Qi said gently.

Nian Ying didn't know, she just thought that her husband was gentle and considerate to her, and she talked and laughed all the way back.

King Qi coaxed her to lie down.

Nian Ying took his hand, and looked coquettish with a cute and cute face, "Your Highness, wait until I fall asleep before leaving." ”

King Qi took a deep breath, "Okay, I'll accompany you." ”

Nian Ying closed his eyes sweetly.

Speaking of which, although Nian Ying does not have the appearance of a country and a city, she is also a princess daughter like delicate nephrite, and she is simple-minded and cheerful, and marrying the prince is not nothing less than Gao Pan.

Moreover, King Qi himself has no power, and marrying Nian Ying is a continuation of the string, and he earned it.

Not to mention, Nian Ying is obsessed with him.

King Qi held her hand because of guilt in his heart, and waited until Nian Ying fell asleep with even breathing, and then let go and turned out.

The ...... of the medicine does not come on immediately, but until it gets dark.

King Qi walked out of the bedroom and stood in the courtyard looking up at the sky alone, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable.

If there were other means and possibilities, he would not have risked his wife and children, let alone endure this kind of torture of conscience, which would make him sit on pins and needles.

Hurry up! Faster!

King Qi sighed lightly in his heart, "God, hurry up and let this all end quickly, the dust will settle." ”
