  Chapter 2229 Guizi Juan wants to leave but still stay, where is Liu Lang

  Hands fell on Xing Xiuyan's beautiful hair on the forehead, Feng Ziying was also a little moved, this woman is the most sensible and considerate of her difficulties.

Xiuyan's originally delicate and bright cheeks were slightly plump due to her pregnancy, making her appear softer and softer. A pair of beautiful eyes like water-soaked grapes look forward to life, her slender neck is like creamy fat, and the blue satin of the Buddha's head is trimmed with gold silk embroidery. The lapels of the clothes are intertwined, and a touch of jade-colored plumpness is faintly visible under the peach-colored bust.

  Pregnancy brought a lot of changes to Xiuyan. Her thin body suddenly became plump, her cheeks became a bit richer, and her **** also swelled a lot.

  Before Feng Ziying was worried about whether Xiuyan would have enough milk after she gave birth, but now it seems that she has worried too much. Women have changed more than expected.

  The only thing that hasn't changed is the calm and friendly look, which always makes people feel like a spring breeze. In the minds of the servants here, Xing Xiuyan is also the most popular, much more welcoming than Baoqin and Miaoyu.

Seeing the eye contact between Feng Ziying and Xing Xiuyan, Miaoyu couldn't help but pouted, and took Feng Ziying's hand and put it on her waist, "Master, my concubine and Xiuyan miss you very much. It can also let Xianggong have no worries here, and he can be more relaxed in doing things."

  Feng Ziying laughed. The girl Miaoyu spoke clumsily and bluntly. Although she understood what she was expressing, it sounded a bit awkward, but it was precisely this situation that reassured Feng Ziying.

  If Miaoyu is like Baoqin who ponders people's hearts and thinks about everything, she is really too naughty, how can she have so much energy to deal with it?

Although Miaoyu is simple and simple in mind, she is extraordinarily bold in bed. Even Feng Ziying doesn't understand why Miaoyu, who was clamoring to become a nun, is completely different now. This temperament has gone to two extremes. up.

"Okay, okay, my husband knows your thoughts." Feng Ziying also patted the back of Miaoyu's hand, and said with a smile: "You are both very good. I have been with my husband to Shaanxi for more than a year. It is indeed hard work to be pregnant, and now I have to travel thousands of miles back to Beijing, I feel really sorry for my husband."

  Feng Ziying's words made Miaoyu and Xiuyan very happy.

  The husband specially came to talk with the two of them in his busy schedule, and the three of them talked about each other and talked about themselves. This may not be a problem for other men, but it is very difficult for Feng Ziying.

Xianggong is now overwhelmed with the guests he has to receive and the official business he handles every day. People waiting outside the gate of the house are lined up at any time. , although it is impossible to be happy after pregnancy, but this kind of physical intimacy and verbal communication can make the two girls extremely happy.

"Before I came to Shaanxi, both my concubine and my sister knew that coming here was not a blessing. It would be very hard for my husband, but how can I sleep when my husband is busy? The only regret is that my concubine can't help my husband too much. I can only pray for my husband silently in the backyard, hoping that everything goes well for my husband, and thanks to God, my husband has done very well for more than a year, and my concubine's blessings are not in vain."

Xiuyan also found that her mentality has become more comfortable and transparent since she became pregnant. What she is looking forward to now is that her husband's career will be smooth, and the child in her womb will land safely. A rely on.

  It seems that she was still a little uncomfortable with some of Xue Baoqin's manners, but now she is very open-minded, letting Xue Baoqin do what she can, as long as she can bear it, she can let it go, why bother with general knowledge.

"Sir, if you really want to go back soon, what about Miss Shi?" Xiuyan suddenly remembered something, "Yesterday Miss Shi and Mrs. Qin came to the mansion. After doing it for a long time, and then came to our side again, I think Miss Shi is not in a good mood, maybe she also knows that you are going back to Beijing, Mr.

  Feng Ziying shook her head, but said nothing.

  Everyone knows that I am going back to Beijing, but everyone is not sure when I will leave.

  It’s already July. At the beginning, it was predicted that it would be the end of the year at the latest, but now it seems that I may not be able to wait. I may return to Beijing before October at the latest, and may even return to Beijing next month.

Xiangyun and Qin Keqing have been working very hard in the mansion for the past six months, and this was also invited by me. After all, they are bound to the embroidery workshop with those criminal women, making clothes and embroidering gowns. Although the work is not heavy, their freedom is restricted. , and there is only such a world, and you can only stay in that courtyard all year round. The feeling of depression is self-evident.

With the ability to say hello by yourself, all you need to do is to ask for leave and report to the jailer under the procuratorate, and then you can come out to your own mansion to have a leisurely half day, talk to your sisters, chat, and play some games by the way. It is also possible to stay overnight in the mansion, which has almost become a happy time for Shi Xiangyun and Qin Keqing only two or three days a month.

  Where you come and go in the mansion, you will definitely hear some rumors about your whereabouts, and the people below have no sense of secrecy in this regard.

In fact, this is not a secret. With the intelligence of Shi Xiangyun and Qin Keqing, how can they not guess that their mission as governor of Shaanxi is coming to an end? Look at the summer harvest of the three prefectures in northern Shaanxi and Xi'an prefecture, and you can guess a little .

   But if they want to leave by themselves, what should they do?

Feng Ziying also thought that no one would embarrass them if she said hello, but to Xiangyun and Keqing, it was nothing to be detained here to make embroidered robes, but once she left, she lost her care and support. , a group of people wandered in Shaanxi like broken kites, unaccompanied. This kind of psychological gap and loneliness was the most unbearable for them.

But in this situation, I can't help them too much, I can't bring them back to the capital, I haven't been presumptuous to that extent, I want to challenge the laws of the entire Great Zhou court, if I really want to do that If you do, no one can protect themselves.

  So during this period of time, Feng Ziying was very entangled, and even a little afraid to see Xiangyun and Qin Keqing, because she was afraid that she would not be able to give a clear promise and answer in such a situation.

"Didn't Xianggong say that Miss Shi and the Qin family would be freed if the imperial court amnesty?" Xiuyan asked cautiously while observing Feng Ziying's facial expression: "The situation in Shaanxi is calm, and my father-in-law has also recovered. Xuzhou, isn't this a great joy, can't there be an amnesty?"

  Feng Ziying smiled wryly. It seemed that these people really listened to the words she originally used to forgive Shi Xiangyun and the others.

   Amnesty can be used for anything?

  Whether the chaos in Shaanxi is settled down, or Xuzhou is taken down, although it is a happy event, it is obviously not enough to rise to the height of amnesty.

Moreover, it can only be approved by the emperor for amnesty, but now that Emperor Yonglong is insane, it is obviously a bit unruly for the cabinet to announce an amnesty, so under such circumstances, the cabinet will definitely not engage in such improvised things, nor will he himself. Maybe it's because they want to mention Shi Xiangyun and Qin Keqing's guilt to tell Master Qi and the others, that's really ignorant.

   On the contrary, if Nanjing is captured and the whole of Jiangnan is recovered, it may be regarded as a great joy, and it may be possible to promote an amnesty, but it will take at least a few months.

  Chen Jixian is still tossing about in Jiangnan, and he probably has some kind of deal with his father. The father didn't mention it in the letter to himself, but Feng Ziying can feel something.

  Seeing that Feng Ziying was silent, Miaoyu changed the topic: "Amnesty may not be such a simple matter, unless the new emperor ascends the throne,..."

  Feng Ziying's heart moved slightly. This is also a way, but it is also more uncertain.

"I can't decide on this matter, and I have to wait for an opportunity." Feng Ziying pondered for a while, "But Jiangnan's withdrawal, or as Miaoyu said, the new emperor's enthronement, are all opportunities, and I guess it will be a matter of one or two years. , so it’s not that there is no chance, but we have to wait.”

   "It's just that when we leave, Miss Shi and Mrs. Qin seem to be alone here. I'm afraid they will find it hard to accept." Xing Xiuyan still couldn't bear it.

She also vaguely knew that Shi Xiangyun and her husband had some unexplainable feelings for each other, and Xue Baoqin should also know it, but the two of them didn't pick each other up outside, but even the people in the mansion could see one or two. Come on, in such a situation, my husband may feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, but how to resolve this difficulty?

  Feng Ziying let out a long sigh, but this is an unsolvable problem. The only thing she can do is comfort Shi Xiangyun and Qin Keqing, let them have something to look forward to in their hearts, give them something to think about, what else can they do?

"Sir, if the Ministry of Rites terminates Miss Shi's engagement with the Sun family after returning to Beijing, can her case be changed?" Xing Xiuyan couldn't help but asked again: "It's just because of the crimes of the two uncles of the Shi family that Miss Shi shouldn't fall into the trap." Is that so? The third girl and the fourth girl are both on bail and awaiting trial, so why should Miss Shi be assigned?"

  Feng Ziying thought for a while, "It depends on the opinion of Dali Temple, but what you said is correct, if the marriage contract with the Sun family is determined to be terminated by the Ministry of Rites, then there is a chance to change the sentence..."

   "It's difficult for the Qin family alone..." Xing Xiuyan sighed, Shi Xiangyun's matter may have a turning point, but Qin Keqing can't help it, and no one dares to get rid of the identity of Prince Yizhong easily.

"That's not necessarily true." Feng Ziying shook her head. Her mother is Concubine Ying. She has a complicated relationship with the Emperor Taishang and Prince Yizhong, and she is an illegitimate daughter. This kind of selfishness, which is not humane, is actually viewed from the perspective of the court. Said, on the contrary, it is more inclined to downplay the treatment, it is best to be anonymous and disappear without a trace, if Dali Temple is really going to finalize them one by one, it will expose its ugliness instead.
