In the afternoon of the same day, Ma Ming Chongyuan entered the palace to pick up Princess Jincheng, and Wei Nong really confirmed that Jincheng was pregnant. Queen Helian smiled from ear to ear, and made a special trip to summon the crown prince and Wei Nong to the Feng Dynasty Palace, just to announce the good news.

Mingzhong came with a visionary vision and apologized again and again for the crash in the morning, and Weinong had something in his heart, so he coped a little carelessly.

When Queen Helian saw this, she was mistaken, and couldn't help laughing and teasing: "It's time to add a concubine to the East Palace, and the crown princess can take care of it." ”

Wei Nong's expression was very surprised when he heard this, and then embarrassed. The crown prince Nie Xingyi reacted very quickly, and hurriedly smiled back: "The queen mother is relieved, isn't the son of the minister working hard." ”

One sentence made everyone laugh. But she couldn't laugh slightly, she remembered what she had seen and heard today, and then looked at Ming Chongyuan's seemingly weak face, she really couldn't sit in the same room with him, and even the void and the snake felt disgusting.

"Such good news, won't the princess report to the king?" Wei Mian asked faintly.

As soon as these words came out, the laughter in the hall came to an abrupt end. As we all know, King Yan is at a loss for Nie Xingji's injury, even if he adds a grandson now, I am afraid it will not be able to make up for the pain of his imminent loss of his beloved son.

Seeing Queen Helian frowning, Nie Xingyi immediately coughed lightly and changed the topic with a smile: "You've been married for a few months, why can't you change your mouth?" It should be called 'Father'! ”

Slightly pursed his lips and did not answer.

Seeing that the atmosphere was about to freeze again, Princess Jincheng hurriedly took over the conversation and replied with a slight smile: "Sister-in-law Wang is right, now that my father is in a sad time, maybe this good news can make him happy." Or can you rush for the second brother...... It's because I'm confused, I always think that it will make my father uncomfortable, and I don't dare to say it. ”

Princess Jincheng's words made Wei Nong start to examine her again. I still remember when I first met in Yanwang Palace four years ago, Jincheng was still a tricky and willful little princess, and she treated herself coldly when she had just recognized her ancestors and returned to her ancestors. Now four years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the pampered and pride of the sky has faded from the arrogance between her eyebrows, turned into a gentle and courteous manner, and has known how to observe words and colors, and solve the siege in a timely manner.

It seems that everyone is getting better and better, but she is the only one who lives more and more regressively, and the more she lives, the more aggrieved she becomes.

Only this flash of thought, but seeing that Princess Jincheng had already gotten up and said goodbye to Queen Helian: "Mother, my son-in-law will go and report the good news to my father." ”

Queen Helian didn't stop her, and replied with a smile: "Go quickly!" Remember to comfort your father. Yan Ba glanced at Wei Nong again, and asked with a smile: "Does the crown princess have time at this time?" Let's go with Jincheng! ”

The meaning of this is obvious, Queen Helian wants to leave the prince and the concubine alone. Wei Nong was extremely disgusted with these scenes today, so he didn't want to stay longer, so he agreed to it.

Queen Helian smiled and watched her daughter and daughter-in-law leave, then turned to look at Ming Chongyuan and asked him, "Have you gone to Xuanji Palace today?" ”

"Yes." Seeing that Queen Helian was smiling, Ming Zhongyuan also cleaned up his expression and replied: "I prayed for the princess, and I also saw the crown princess." ”

"So, she is indeed in Xuanji Palace?" Queen Helian muttered to herself.

Nie Xingyi answered: "Queen Mother, I have said that you are multi-hearted. She went to Xuanji Palace today, and her sons sent someone to follow, so there would be no mistakes. ”

Queen Helian glanced at him: "At this critical moment, you can't blame the queen mother for being too careful. I see you're hot, and she's very cold to you. ”

Nie Xingyi was poked at the center, and because of Ming Chongyuan's presence, he didn't say much, so he just said: "Her kind of temperament is like this to everyone." To the sons...... Enough respect. ”

Queen Helian didn't want to say too much in front of outsiders, so she nodded: "Well, it's good that you have a sense of proportion." Now that she is the daughter of the eldest princess, we always have to give the eldest princess and the definition of Hou face, as long as she abides by her duties and has a cold temperament, it is nothing. ”

Queen Helian's words were ostensibly for the crown prince, but in fact, they were deliberately said for Ming Chongyuan. She knew that now the whole Ming Mansion was worried about the prince's marriage to the concubine. She made this matter clear in person, and she also wanted Ming Chongyuan to know that Du Weinong was chosen by King Yan, and her identity was given by King Yan, and she was supported by the eldest princess behind her, and she was powerless as Ming Danshu's aunt.

Sure enough, when Ming Chongyuan heard this specious palace secret, he didn't ask much, and took the initiative to change the topic: "By the way, my mother has been unhappy with the cold recently, and she misses Liangdi very much. If there is nothing to do in the East Palace, please also ask the Queen Mother and Her Royal Highness to be accommodating, and Xu Liangdi will return to the house to visit for a day. ”

Queen Helian heard that it was her sister who was sick, and she also understood this feeling of missing her daughter, and immediately agreed: "Today is the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, and after the third day of the first lunar month, let Danshu go back for a day or two!" Now that the weather is bitterly cold, take care of your mother. ”

*****

An hour later, Ming Chongyuan left the palace with Princess Jincheng and returned to the princess's mansion. King Yan did not show much joy at Princess Jincheng's pregnancy, but he also rewarded her with a lot of treasures and medicinal materials, and told her to have a good life.

Princess Jincheng is pregnant, Chudi successfully quelled the chaos, Jinghou was seriously injured in assassination, and the climate was extremely cold...... Time spent in this mixed blessing, and in a blink of an eye, the eighteenth year of Longwu has passed.

In the sound of firecrackers in the first month, Nie Xingji still didn't know anyone, and his life and death were uncertain.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Ming Danshu was allowed to go back to Mingfu to visit his sick mother. Mrs. Helian was negligent during her confinement in the past, and she suffered from back pain, which hurt badly every time it was windy and rainy. This winter was bitterly cold, and she was in so much pain that she couldn't walk, so she had to lie on the couch to recuperate.

Since Madame Helian entered the palace once last September, her mother and daughter have not seen each other again, and they have to say something considerate. Today, the God of Wealth, Ming Xiang went to the clan to preside over the ceremony of receiving the God of Wealth, not in the house; Mrs. Helian had the habit of taking a lunch break again, and after dinner, Ming Danshu settled her mother to rest, and then went to find Ming Chenyuan.

Even if her second brother has a stiff quarrel with the family, he will still come back for the New Year. Finally seeing him, she desperately wanted to know about Nie Xingji's injuries.

When he came to find Ming Chenyuan, the door of his house was open, but Ming Danshu still raised his hand and knocked on the door before stepping in.

Ming Chenyuan was flipping through the medical books, and the room was full of books spread out, scattered everywhere in twos and threes. In the warm afternoon, he stood by the window with a medical book in his hand, bathed in the golden sunlight, and his handsome and serious appearance had a kind of Yunwen Yunwu temperament.

Ming Danshu felt that Mingchen looked far more like his father than his eldest brother, and his temperament was more daring to love and hate. Perhaps it was because of this that he was deeply hated by his mother. In this disgust, there may be a little bit of worry, worried that his future achievements will surpass that of his son-in-law.

Seeing that Ming Danshu took the initiative to come, Ming Chenyuan just raised his eyes and glanced at her, but did not take the initiative to talk, and continued to bury his head in the book.

Ming Danshu knew that he was anxious about Nie Xingji's injury, so he opened his mouth first: "You are not a doctor, what use can you use by turning these books?" If you have this spare time, you might as well go and find the murderer behind the scenes. ”

Ming Chenyuan was not polite to her when he heard this, and asked rhetorically: "Which side is the eldest lady on now?" ”

Ming Danshu's expression froze, and then he darkened, and asked rhetorically: "What do you say?" ”

Ming Chenyuan knew about the appointment between her and Nie Xingji on the day of the prince's wedding, and also knew what Nie Xingchen had promised her, so he said: "Then you should be able to guess who the murderer is behind the scenes." ”

Ming Danshu remembered what the crown prince Nie Xingyi had said a few days ago, so she replied softly: "He is suspicious, but I can't be sure yet." ”

"Then I'll give you an idea." Ming Chenyuan put his hand on the book of traditional Chinese medicine, and said after deliberation: "You go back to the East Palace today, pretend to know and give the prince a thorough explanation, and say that His Royal Highness's injury has taken a turn for the better." ”

"Turnaround? What turnaround? Ming Danshu's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked.

Ming Chenyuan said vaguely: "The more you know, the more you will be tricked, but it seems deliberate." This sentence alone is enough, and I will arrange the rest of the matter. ”

Ming Danshu was a little puzzled, but still nodded: "Listen to the meaning of the second brother's words, he ...... Saving your life? ”

"Many parties are working hard, and hopefully there will be a good result." Ming Chenyuan sighed: "As you said, I can't worry about healing, so let's worry about the murderer." ”

"Then what kind of medical book are you still flipping through?" Ming Danshu was even more puzzled.

"Flip it out for outsiders." Ming Chenyuan's expression was as usual, but his words were a little sneering: "Or, rather, it was turned over to my father and eldest brother." ”

Ming Danshu suddenly fell silent, she felt that this scene was extremely ironic. It must be known that she and Ming Chongyuan are compatriots of the same mother, both are descendants, and they have a deep relationship with their brothers and sisters since childhood; And Mingchen is far from being a concubine, and her behavior is deviant, she has always sneered at him.

However, today, she turned her back on her father and compatriot brother Ming Chongyuan, chose to stand on the same front as Ming Chenyuan, and calculated her husband and aunt.

It can be seen that the relationship between people, no matter how close it is, is not as reliable as imagined.

The sudden panic and worry overwhelmed Ming Danshu, and she couldn't help but ask again: "Second brother, if this matter really involves our Ming family, ...... Will they sit idly by? ”

Ming Chenyuan didn't answer when he heard this, but asked with a smile: "It's hard for the eldest lady to call me 'second brother'." ”

Ming Danshu pretended not to hear: "One is prosperous, and one is lost." If the Ming clan is implicated this time, it will not do you or me any good. ”

"If the eldest lady has any concerns, don't choose Your Highness, go back and continue to be your crown prince, which is both stable and beautiful." Ming Chenyuan made a look of chasing customers, sat down and continued to read the medical book: "Don't send it." ”

Ming Danshu saw that he had been ignoring him, and finally got annoyed: "Ming Chenyuan, I will also say ugly things ahead, I am not helping you, it is him." If he can live this time, it will be the best; If he ...... Dead, you and I are still the same as before, strangers. ”

"Don't worry, the eldest lady won't be implicated." Mingchen didn't raise his head from afar, his eyes fell on the medical book, and he laughed lightly.

Ming Danshu snorted coldly and turned around to leave, but heard Ming Chenyuan say after her: "Wei Liangyuan has been taken for his own use." Also, if you need to deliver a message in the future, you can place the note in the flower garden in front of your Liuyun Palace, in the second or third pot of mallet orchids. ”

These two sentences, which seem to be understatements, really brought a great shock to Ming Danshu. She turned her head to look at Ming Chenyuan again, and saw that the other party had never opened her mouth, as if to tell her: I haven't said anything.

Ming Danshu had thousands of questions in her heart that she wanted to ask, but Ming Chenyuan just frowned and flipped through the medical books, pretending to study seriously, and didn't look at her at all.

Ming Danshu was also angry and didn't ask any more questions, and left by himself.
