Because Qiu Jinglan and Ou Qinglan concealed the bumps when they retreated from Shazhou City to Wangcheng at the beginning of the year, both the Ou family and Qiu Qinglan were very surprised that their eldest daughter was gone as soon as she landed.

Ou Bicheng and Qiu Yulan had a special meeting for this to discuss this matter: "A-Xing has always been in good health, although the western Xinjiang is bitterly cold, the northern Xinjiang is not much better!" That place can't stand it for the people of Jingli, but it's not so bad for Ah Xing - needless to say, the brother-in-law's body is gone, how can the child land and disappear? ”

"Could it be that you suffered during the retreat before?" Qiu Yulan guessed correctly, because there is really no way to explain the child's premature death - the infant mortality rate of children in these years is indeed quite high, but according to the physical fitness of Qiu Jinglan and his wife, how unlucky their bones and blood are to be so weak?

"During that time, there was a lot of bad news, I'm afraid my brother and sister-in-law were afraid that we would worry, so they hid it?"

Ou Bicheng also thought so: "If that's the case, I'm worried about A-Xing's body. She is still looking at the city, even though the city is still guarded, but ...... The barbarians provoke every day, and I'm afraid they won't be able to recuperate well! ”

"If you talk about recuperation, Jingli is of course much better than Wangcheng, but listening to the messenger, it seems that my sister-in-law's birth is not a recent thing, and my brother didn't even mention sending her to Beijing, could it be inconvenient to move?" Although Qiu Jinglan still doesn't know why Qiu Jinglan changed her attitude and is willing to marry Ou Qinglan, she knows that Qiu Jinglan will not be harsh on his wife at this point, how could Qiu Jinglan who Ou Bicheng thought of not think of it?

The reason why Ou Qinglan is still looking at the city is estimated to be eight times out of ten. The ninth is that she is either inconvenient to move, or she is unwilling to part with her husband.

Ou Bicheng sighed: "I'm worried that she is unwilling to part with her brother-in-law, and it will not be good if she falls ill!" ”

"I feel ......," Qiu Yulan muttered, "My brother is not an ignorant person, if my sister-in-law stays in Wangcheng, she will fall ill, I am afraid that my sister-in-law insists on it, and my brother will not allow it." ”

Ou Bicheng thinks about it, but he is such a sister, although because of Ou Qinglan's force and favor, he was bullied by his sister as an elder brother and grew up, and he has a deep brother-sister relationship. When she was allowed to marry far away, she was already worried, and then she knew that she had no children, how could she not be worried?

After all, it has been thousands of miles, and the two of them have not actually discussed a way to really see the effect now, so they still have to wait for a credible person to go to Wangcheng in person to see the details before they can decide on a countermeasure.

After saying this, Qiu Yulan only said that Ou Bicheng was about to leave, but who would have thought that he would instead mention Jiang Yashuang's cold war with her, and said euphemistically: "Although Nineteen has a good family background and good looks, in fact, except for you, I don't have any experience in getting along with women. During this period of time, a lot of things have happened inside and out, he is really busy, if there is anything too much, Gu didn't come over, I hope you Haihan! ”

The corners of Qiu Yulan's mouth twitched, and he said something else: "Last time I went to see my little aunt, my aunt seems to have been a little less ...... in the past two days."

Mrs. Ou is Ou Bicheng's aunt and grandmother, and she usually takes care of the younger generations of the Ou family, so Ou Bicheng can't help but answer: "Is it?" I'll have to check it out later! ”

However, although he answered, he still remembered to say a few words to Jiang Yashuang, and then turned the topic back, "Nineteen he ......"

At this time, someone came to announce: "The eighth lady is born!" It's a son! ”

"This is the twenty-brother! But what about the eldest son of the eighth uncle! I've got to check it out! Qiu Yulan immediately smiled when she heard this, and when she said this, she seemed to think of Ou Bicheng, and apologized apologetically, "Bicheng, I'm really sorry - look at this now?" ”

"Congratulations to Eight. Master, Eighth Lady! Ou Bicheng saw that she was taking this opportunity not to listen to her own persuasion, but she had no choice but to leave.

However, after sending him away, Qiu Yulan still went to the eighth room to see it in person. The old man Jiang Tianxiao and the eighth lady Huang have been married for more than ten years, although they have also accepted a few concubines, but the two of them only have two daughters under their knees, and it is easy to look forward to a son or a son-in-law, and the couple now really feel that the sky is blue and the water is green, and the world is so beautiful that it can't be better all of a sudden.

It is a harmonious atmosphere for the guests and the hosts, and the atmosphere is extremely joyful.

Qiu Yulan said congratulations to the crowd, and went to see the children with a group of female dependents - before landing, wrapped in swaddling clothes, the eyebrows and eyes did not grow, of course, it is not good-looking, but it looks fat and strong, and it should be a good one to feed.

The eighth room is usually not very close to the fourth room, and for the position of Shazhou Thorn History, Qiu Yulan also refuted the face of the Huang family, so Qiu Yulan didn't stay long, and left when he arrived.

When she returned to her courtyard, she saw that the queen had sent someone to wait for her: "Niangniang heard that the child of General Zhenxi is gone, and she is very worried about Mrs. Ou, and I want to invite you into the palace to talk about it!" ”

Qiu Yulan was a little surprised, because in the past, her relationship with the queen, Zhuang Man, and Ou Qinglan had always been closer than others, but to say that the relationship between the queen and Ou Qinglan was actually all because the queen used to be in love with Ou Qinglan's brother Ou Bicheng, and she took the initiative to please her. Otherwise, if you think about it, the queen is a quiet lady, but Ou Qinglan is a good martial artist, and she can beat her brother to the ground, it's not easy to talk about it!

Although it is said that the queen's thoughts about Ou Bicheng have been concealed, there are many people in the Jiang family alone who know - now that the queen is the mother of the country, it is said that she should avoid the brothers and sisters of the Ou family. If you rush into the palace and mention it by the way, it's okay, so deliberately calling yourself into the palace to ask, it will inevitably seem too concerned, making people wonder if she still has no feelings for Oubi City?

"But is it really just sisterhood?" After Qiu Yulan doubted it, he felt that he might be thinking too much, because, "Only those who have come here can understand the pain of their own flesh and blood dying in their arms...... Lang'er was poisoned back then, and I was in a ...... mood Although the eldest prince has never experienced such a thing now, but in the environment of the palace, it is not easy for Chu Shao to grow up peacefully! Maybe the queen was touched by this, and now I see that my sister-in-law is very pitiful? ”

Thinking so, he said to the palace man: "Niangniang is called, I don't dare to delay, please allow me to change my dress!" ”

Now the emperor is a puppet, the queen said that she is in charge of the six palaces, but in fact, the harem has no power even if there is a queen and a concubine, and the palace people dare not put up a fight with her, so they are busy saying: "Young lady, please!" ”

Qiu Yulan changed her dress and followed the palace people to the Beique Palace, and saw that many things had been replaced around, and she looked a little empty and a little surprised. She has a good relationship with the queen, and she talks very casually in private, and after sitting down, she asks, "How can so many things be replaced here?" ”

"Shao'er is getting more and more naughty, none of the palace people looked at it this morning, and hit the high case headlong, knocking the orchid bonsai on it down!" The queen sighed, "That's why people removed all these things!" ”

Qiu Yulan was startled and asked with concern: "What about the eldest prince?" Are you alright? ”

"Fortunately, a palace man caught up and blocked it with his arm, and he was fine, so he was swept away by the orchid leaves...... But it's also scary! I punished him for thinking about the wall in the side hall, and only allowed the nurse to accompany him! The queen rubbed her eyebrows, "Don't talk about this naughty one...... I was very uncertain after hearing about Ah Xing, she and your brother are in good health, how can the child be? ”

"I think I suffered from bumps at the beginning of the year!" Qiu Yulan pursed her lips and brought up the words she had discussed with Obi City. Lian told her, "...... I can only wait for the next person to go over there and come back to tell the ins and outs. ”

As she said this, she quietly observed the queen's expression, and saw if she had any other meaning in asking this.

Seeing that the gloom between the queen's eyebrows had worsened a little, she paused for a while before sighing: "It's a pity! Good eldest daughter! ”

seemed to be silent for a while, and the queen asked again, "Then is Ah Xing's body all right now?" I think that place in Wangcheng is not conducive to recuperation, even if I don't return to Beijing, why don't I retreat to a place like Xiangzhou? ”

Speaking of this, his voice was low, "It's terrible if this thing falls to the root of the disease!" She also hoped that Ou Qinglan would quickly have another daughter, so that she would be worthy of Chu Shao in the future!

Of course, the future princess and queen must be daughters!

Moreover, although Qiu Jinglan is powerful and there is only one person in the end, the Ou family is the leading force in the Jiang family's party. Although it is said that the forces of this branch are also in the army, and they are rarely in the court-but isn't the confidence of the Jiang family the military power?!

The queen thought about it again and again, thinking that only by marrying the daughter of Qiu Jinglan and Ou Qinglan for Chu Shao was the only way to live. It's just that their eldest daughter is gone-Chu Shao is already three years old, if Ou Qinglan's injury this time is more serious, she needs to recuperate for three or five years before she can regenerate, and she may not be a daughter when she is reborn - in her son's marriage, the queen knows that her voice is limited, if Qiu Jinglan's daughter is about the same age as Chu Shao, she can still try to work hard; The gap is too big, and it will be difficult to mention it when the time comes.

Even if the queen forcibly wants to tell Chu Shao, it will arouse suspicion!

So at this moment, the queen cares more about Ou Qinglan's body than anyone else, otherwise she wouldn't have specially called Qiu Yulan to ask and care.

It's just that Qiu Yulan is not very clear about the situation in Wangcheng, so she can only guess and comfort her.

The queen was perfunctory with her, but she was very anxious in her heart, but she could only secretly think: "Anyway, I had a relationship with Ah Xing before, and now I am very attentive to her." In the future, it is easy to talk about marrying her daughter for Shao'er. ”

When the two of them sent the idlers to talk in the Beique Palace, the emperor was in the Funing Palace and asked Cen Wei: "Female official Lin wants to send her maiden niece to Jiang Shijiu's backyard, is this true or false?" Jiang Shijiu is the heart and soul of the Queen Mother, but there is no need to sell the face of Lady Lin! He is famous for loving his wife! ”

Cen Wei reminded: "Jiang Shijiu and Lord Ning Yi have been living in separate rooms for some days, and it is because of this that Lady Lin wants her niece to take advantage of this loophole!" ”

The emperor snorted lightly: "So it's not been a day or two since Lady Lin got up, why hasn't there been any movement?" ”

"It can't be helped." Cen Wei said, "Although Lady Lin's maiden family is still a slave to the Jiang family, they have all changed their positions and positions. Your Majesty, please think about it, now the Guogong Mansion is a three-room house, and of course these people are all under the hands of the fourteenth young lady of their family, and they have nothing to do with Jiang Nineteen's courtyard. It's just that Jiang Nineteen during this period of time is to teach disciples in the study, and he is in a hurry to go in and out, and his face is unhappy, so Lin Wenniang didn't dare to block people directly when he went back with him, and he couldn't force his study, but he was full of thoughts but didn't know where to start? ”

"In that case, shall I help them?" The emperor thought for a while, squinted his eyes and said, "After all, Jiang Jiu has always been in love with the county lord of Ningyi, and he is regarded as a human being, and he definitely did not directly kill his wife because of a quarrel, Lady Lin...... That's the one who is dead and the queen mother! ”

Anyway, his purpose is to let Qiu Jinglan get in touch with the Jiang family, so the one who kills Qiu Jinglan only needs to be an important person of the Jiang family, and everyone is the same.

Cen Wei was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "But Xijiang is now-" Qiu Jinglan's tempering hasn't passed yet, he can't hold on, let alone support his sister, he can't live his life!

"The message you gave me last night said that Qiu Jinglan had almost been cleaned up, and all the power that could be seized had been seized, and if you didn't consider expelling the Xiban, I am afraid that the hearts of these people who were so easy to win over will have to be dispersed again!" The emperor said lightly, "Although I don't know if he won or lost this battle...... But get ready! Between Hengzhujiang Nineteen and Ningyi County Lord, there are many people and few people, what does it have to do with us? It is also a good thing for me to be happy to make Lady Lin happy. ”

Cen Wei bowed: "Yes!" ”
