"Didn't you claim that you didn't plan to go back to the Hou Mansion tonight?"

"After drinking some wine, I want you to pamper me, husband, can't you?"

Zhou Jieqiong glanced at Xu Huabiao.

On the carriage back to the Hou Mansion from the palace, Xu Huabiao sat on the soft stool with a big grin, and Zhou Jieqiong leaned on him beside him.

The two of them didn't speak loudly, because outside the two carriages, there were several guards, and the people who drove the carriages were not Xu Huabiao's own people.

"If you have something to say, don't pretend to have nothing to do." Xu Huabiao smiled and gently pinched Zhou Jieqiong's face.

"I'm sorry, husband, I didn't let you see our children today."

"It's not your fault! I have to give birth to a child in Xuchang! Back in Luoyang, I can hold it in my arms every day! ”

"This ...... There's a reason for that. ”

"What is the reason?"

"Let's talk about it when we get home." Zhou Jieqiong shook her head.

Xu Huabiao was stunned for a moment, and then didn't answer.

staggered all the way back to the Hou Mansion, the time was not early, except for the housekeeper Jin Shaoqing and Hirai Tao were still waiting, everyone else had already rested.

Xu Huabiao explained Jin Shaoqing to thank the driver and guard of the carriage that sent him back, and he took Zhou Jieqiong back to the backyard.

Entering the bedroom, Xu Huabiao soaked in the bath water prepared by Hirai Tao, while Zhou Jieqiong waited beside him.

The atmosphere is a bit charming and a little warm.

Felt like home.

However......

"Husband, what is that...... I think I can tell you now. ”

Zhou Jieqiong said while helping Xu Huabiao gently massage his back.

"What's the matter?"

With his eyes closed, Xu Huabiao thought about the set of things he fooled the Son of Heaven tonight, trying to find out if there were any loopholes, plus the hot water was soaking, the whole person was lazy, and his brain was a little unstable.

"Things about children......"

"Actually, I think we'll just go back to Luoyang in a few days. But...... If you're worried that your child won't be able to endure the journey, it's okay to be on the road in two months. Xu Huabiao said with a smile.

"That's not what I'm talking about."

"What's that?"

Xu Huabiao turned his head a little curiously and looked at Zhou Jieqiong behind him.

Zhou Jieqiong's face didn't look very good.

"Are you not feeling well? …… What are you doing? Get up, don't kneel! How cold it is on the ground! ”

"Husband, I'm sorry for you."

Zhou Jieqiong ignored Xu Huabiao's words, and still knelt in front of Xu Huabiao.

“…… What did you do? Xu Huabiao looked at Zhou Jieqiong as if she was joking, and her face froze.

"Husband, promise me first, you can't get angry......"

“……”

"If you don't promise, I won't say it."

"Then don't talk about it."

Xu Huabiao stood up directly from the bathtub, cleaned up, and put on his clothes.

Zhou Jieqiong was hung there by him.

Dumbfounded.

She knew that her husband often didn't play cards according to the routine, but she didn't expect that she would have such a day......

Want to get up?

Just when Zhou Jieqiong was stunned, Xu Huabiao had already returned to the bed in the bedroom and lay down.

With his hands behind his head, he secretly watched Zhou Jieqiong kneeling there in a daze.

It's been a while.

Xu Huabiao's face became worse and worse.

What did Zhou Jieqiong do? Why haven't you gotten up for so long?

Is it green on your head? Impossible! Xu Huabiao doesn't believe that anyone in this world dares to be the king next door.

So what else can she do about the child being sorry for herself?

Xu Huabiao didn't come up with anything for a while.

In this way, after a full half an hour, Zhou Jieqiong finally couldn't help it and tried hard to get up.

As a result, I knelt for too long, and I couldn't stand firmly, and I almost fell.

Xu Huabiao, who was pretending to lie on the bed, moved quickly, and in a few steps, he helped his wife.

"You're alright, you!" Xu Huabiao stretched out his hand a little annoyed, and directly picked up Zhou Jieqiong and put her on the bed.

"......" Zhou Jieqiong didn't say anything.

"What the hell have you done to be sorry for me? Did you steal a man behind my back or something else? Xu Huabiao saw that Zhou Jieqiong was more stubborn than herself, and she was a little angry.

“…… You promise me first, don't be angry. ”

"That can't be! If you're going to ...... someone else behind my back."

"I'm not going to do that!"

"Then what else can be sorry for me?" Xu Huabiao's face was incomprehensible.

Be quiet.

It's been a while.

"Don't forget it, go to sleep."

Xu Huabiao didn't bother to compete with Zhou Jieqiong, so he lay back on the bed, covered himself with the quilt, turned his back to Zhou Jieqiong, and prepared to sleep.

Zhou Jieqiong was hung there again.

"Husband...... I...... I did something behind your back. ”

This time, Zhou Jieqiong reacted quickly.

“……”

Xu Huabiao didn't answer.

"I discussed one thing with Park so-young." Zhou Jieqiong saw that Xu Huabiao didn't plan to answer her words at all, so she could only stubbornly continue: "Husband, although you made her pregnant, after all, there is no guarantee that she will give birth to a boy." ”

Xu Huabiao turned around and looked at Zhou Jieqiong.

This sentence sounded nothing, but it made the cold sweat on Xu Huabiao's back come down.

"So I discussed with Park Xiurong that I was pregnant about a month earlier than her, and I took a little medicine to keep the baby safe, while she thought of some ways to create a little accident and give birth to the child a little premature...... In this way, if the child she gives birth to is a girl and I give birth to a boy, I can arrange for someone to secretly change with her without knowing it, so as to ensure that the child she gives birth to is a boy......"

“…… How does this sound familiar to me? ”

"Because I actually told you before...... husband"

"So...... Did you really do it? Xu Huabiao said a word with a little difficulty.

Not, I thought you were joking, you brought me for real??

It's no wonder that during today's dinner, Park Xiurong looked at herself when she was fine, and she always told the Son of Heaven that she would cherish her child......

So that's what happened!!

Zhou Jieqiong stretched out her hand and gently wiped the sweat on Xu Huabiao's forehead.

Nodding.

"I gave birth to a boy, and Park so-young gave birth to a girl. But now, apart from the two of us and Minami Nakai, who helped us deliver the baby, only Momo Hirai and Sasha Minato, who helped us change the child, know. ”

"So the girl you're telling me about now is called Xiuxiu, but it's actually the child of me and Park so-young?" Xu Huabiao's face was ridiculous.

"Yes, I will be with your child...... Now he is the young prince of the imperial brother. According to your meaning, husband, that Xiurong gave the young prince the nickname of Mingzhu. ”

Be quiet.

It doesn't matter if the pearl is not a pearl, it doesn't matter, I was just joking at the time...... But why did the two of you bring in Mingjing Nan and the three of them?

"Are you planning to kill Xiao Nan and the three of them in the future?"

"No, it won't. Xiao Nan, they are absolutely loyal to their husbands, and even Xiao Tao and Sasha wanted to kill themselves to shut their mouths after they finished their work...... I managed to stop it. ”

“…… I don't know if you're crazy or Park so-young is crazy, or if you're both crazy. ”

Xu Huabiao rubbed his temples with a little headache.

What the hell is this thing called!

"Husband, what are you doing so excited! Anyway, whether it's a boy or a girl, it's your child! As for who the mother is...... Park so-young and I have already discussed that we will raise these two children as our own biological children, husband, why should you care? ”

"But the question is, what are you doing here!"

"For Park so-young, all she wants is the position of queen." Zhou Jieqiong smiled, "So she needs a prince." And for me...... My husband and I will become the concubines of the new queen, that is, the future heir to the throne, at least so that the future son of heaven can still have the blood of my heavenly family......"

"But you're too nonsense!" Xu Huabiao interrupted Zhou Jieqiong's explanation, "Aren't you afraid of being discovered by the Son of Heaven?" ”

"I'm just afraid that the imperial brother will find out that the child is not his, so I thought of this method!" Zhou Jieqiong's face was serious, "A child with my blood, even if the royal brother does a blood confession, the chance of passing is always greater than that of you and Park Xiurong's child, right?" ”

“…… That's not what I'm talking about! Xu Huabiao shook his head, "If you find a way to make Park Xiurong give birth prematurely, aren't you afraid that the Son of Heaven will count her child as pregnant?" ”

"That's why I was born prematurely! It's not enough! Zhou Jieqiong shook her head, "After taking some medicine prescribed by Mingjing Nan, she specially created a frightened accident, the child was born prematurely for nearly a month, so Xiuxiu's body was very weak, and even Xiurong almost fell ill because of this...... Otherwise, I would have taken the child back to Luoyang a long time ago. ”

"......" Xu Huabiao reached out a little speechless and rubbed his head.

What the hell is this......

"The reason why I only came to tell my husband about this tonight is because I think you will definitely not see the imperial brother again in a short time." Zhou Jieqiong saw that Xu Huabiao didn't scold herself, and she breathed a sigh of relief, "Otherwise, I will say it as soon as I see my husband that day." I'm sorry to hide it from you......"

"It's not something I'm hiding from me, it's you...... Forget it, what you said is right, in the future, this child will also have your heavenly bloodline, you and Park Xiurong plan to suppress this matter, then suppress it. Xu Huabiao sighed softly again.

"Husband, otherwise...... Tomorrow, you will go back to Luoyang first. Yun Xi's side, husband, you haven't seen it yet......"

"You're afraid I'm going to show my stuff here?"

"How could it be! Even if I expose my stuffing, you won't be able to. It's that I may have to stay in Xuchang for a long time. Zhou Jieqiong's expression looked very helpless, "Xiuxiu's health is really not good, why do you have to recuperate before you can go back to Luoyang, you don't want to stay here for so long, right?" ”

“…… Let's get up tomorrow and talk about it. ”

"Well, husband, I'm sorry......"

"Forget it." Xu Huabiao sighed softly, "But you dare to hide this kind of thing from me......"

“……”

"Say no more, sleep, sleep."

"Husband, before we go to bed, should we ...... If you're leaving tomorrow, we don't know when we'll meet again. ”

“…… You're hopeless. ”

Xu Huabiao sighed softly.

……
