Father can be an enemy to the country

After hearing what Lao Liu said, the prince's pupils shrank.

The birth-inducing talisman is a kind of talisman that urges pregnant women to give birth quickly. The so-called 'drawing symbols to promote birth', like seahorses and horse bits, are objects that seek help from mysterious power and help pregnant women give birth. It is said to have the miraculous effect of preventing difficult labor.

In this era when a woman gives birth to a child, it is like going through hell. Even the royal family devoutly prays for this fertility talisman and sticks it in the delivery room to ensure a smooth delivery.

But if this thing is drawn incorrectly, it will definitely not be able to play its intended role, and it may even have the opposite effect.

Then we have to ask, was this intentional or accidental?

~~

The Crown Princess, however, was completely unaware of Uncle Liu's overtones and said, "No way, this is the Celestial Master Talisman that Sister Lu personally went to Zhengyi Temple to ask for..."

But seeing everyone looking at her strangely, she couldn't help asking: "What?"

"Sister-in-law, Sister Xunzhen is the direct sister of Zhengyi Guanzhen Zhang Dazhen. Just ask her whether this talisman can guarantee its authenticity. Why bother guessing by yourself?" Princess Zhou said with a bitter smile.

"Yes." Ms. Chang smiled sheepishly and hurriedly asked Zhang Xunzhen, "Sister, look, is this a talisman drawn by your family?"

Zhang Xunzhen replied seriously:

"Back to you, Madam, I am making a fertility talisman. I use yellow paper mixed with cinnabar, and use a clean pen to write the word 'car'. Around the car, I write the word 'horse' in a circle. It must be written in regular script. It doesn’t matter how big or small it is.”

"If the character horse is an odd number, it will be a boy, and if it is a double, it will be a girl. However, you can't write it independently, or you may write it in single form intentionally, but it is not round, and cannot be subtracted; if you write it in double, it is already round, and it cannot be added." She said. While gesticulating with green fingers, he explained:

"But this talisman has a big hole left on it. This is called 'improper'. It was deliberately left unfinished. How could it possibly be magical?"

"Is it possible that the Taoist priest who drew the talisman accidentally drew the wrong one?" the prince asked slowly.

"Impossible." Zhang Xunzhen shook his head firmly and said:

"What I am painting is an innate talisman. The innate talisman is made up of one stroke, which is the so-called 'a little aura is the talisman. People in the world waste ink and Zhu'. So if this talisman was drawn by the Taoist priest of my Zhengyi Yitai, he thought It’s impossible to make a mistake in the painting.”

"Then this is..." Everyone asked in confusion: "What's going on?"

"It should have been copied by a layman based on the original birth-inducing talisman." Zhang Xunzhen said calmly: "So it has no effect."

"No wonder it's useless at all..." The Crown Princess suddenly realized, but said embarrassedly: "I also called you charlatans, I'm really sorry..."

"It doesn't matter, being scolded won't cost you anything." Zhang Xunzhen said with a generous smile: "I didn't help the queen, shouldn't I be scolded?"

"Things that have nothing to do with you are all Lu..." The Crown Princess was stunned for a moment, then asked the Prince: "Speaking of which, why hasn't Concubine Lu shown up? Call her quickly and find out."

Although only the main concubine is the legitimate wife, the prince's concubines, like the emperor's concubines, are all canonized nobles who can wear Xiapei.

Her status is still above that of an official's first-grade wife, so she is completely different from the concubine of a courtier. Therefore, when the Crown Princess is inconvenient, the concubine can greet the guests for her without being considered as overstepping.

It was only then that the Crown Princess realized that the lines were indeed thick enough.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, her old habit is back again." Fortunately, the prince was very attentive and covered it up quietly.

"That's it." The Crown Princess believed it and said, "Hey, Sister Lu is fine in everything, but her body is a little weak, so don't let her come over."

"Well, I'll ask her later." The prince nodded.

Others were not as rough-and-tumble as the Crown Princess. Even the fifth couple realized that something was wrong.

So they all stood up and said goodbye.

The prince sent the four people to the palace gate with a calm demeanor, and warmly invited Zhang Xunzhen to come often.

The golden carriage slowly drove away from Chunhe Palace. Lao Liu and Zhang Xunzhen also saw the prince standing on the steps waving to them.

"You came back with a full load this time." Lao Liu said softly while waving in response to his elder brother.

"That is, with the crown prince and princess as my backers, which blind little thief would dare to bully Pindao?" Zhang Xunzhen said proudly, "When my godson grows up, he can help me beat him up."

"Nonsense, that's my godfather too, can he still beat his godfather?" Lao Liu drawled.

"I didn't mention him by name," Zhang Xunzhen chuckled happily, "It seems that His Highness also knows the good deeds he has done."

"It sounds like I'm going too far." Lao Liuxin said, why don't you just hold your little hand and kiss your little face? How well-behaved is this king?

He just wanted to use his hands and feet to give her something more extreme. Suddenly thinking that Zhang Xunzhen insisted on returning to Longhu Mountain, he hummed and asked:

"But, as a Taoist priest, why are you so familiar with the routines in the deep house compound?"

"What's wrong with the Taoist priest? We are together and we can't help but get married." Zhang Xunzhen said calmly: "The Celestial Masters for more than a thousand years have all been named Zhang. How can you give birth to the next generation if you don't marry a wife?

"When it comes to family grievances, only the Kong family in Qufu can compete. Although this is nothing to boast about."

"Then you are indeed experienced." Lao Liu nodded convinced and asked, "Excuse me, Master, is it enough for me to remind my brother like this?"

"That's enough." Zhang Xunzhen also nodded and said, "Actually, there is no difference between what you said and what you said explicitly. It can't be considered a hint."

"I don't like hints. What if the other party misunderstands me? What if the other party doesn't understand what I mean?" Lao Liu said in a dull voice: "The first priority in transmitting information is accuracy. Do you understand?"

"I don't understand..." Zhang Xunzhen said quietly, "Why don't you do this to me?"

"I'm happy to." Lao Liu chuckled and asked, "What do you think will happen to my elder brother?"

"How can a poor man presume to speculate on His Highness the Crown Prince?" Zhang Xunzhen said softly: "But Concubine Lu has not shown up today. I am afraid that I will never see her again."

"I hope so." Lao Liu was worried about his eldest brother's family.

Spring Harmony Palace.

After seeing off the guests, the prince returned to the palace. He didn't go to find Chang or Lu, but went straight to a small courtyard with strong guards.

"Prince." The guard guarding the gate pushed open the courtyard door.

The prince nodded and walked into the courtyard.

Zhu Xiongying's eldest companion, Eunuch Cui, hurried out to greet him.

"Have you brought everyone?" Before he could salute, the prince said in a deep voice.

"Go back to the crown prince, and bring them all." Eunuch Cui nodded and said, "Eunuch Lu is in the east wing, and Mrs. Ning is in the west wing."

"Yes." The prince nodded, but did not enter any room. Others don't want to be decent, but he also needs to be decent.

"Go and ask them the same question respectively." The prince then whispered to Eunuch Cui: "Why did you never report the matter of the princess's fetus being too large?"

ps. There was still a little bit left, so I accidentally fell asleep... I got up and finished writing and continued to sleep.
