"Why is Lord Lu here? What should I do?" Hu Suhua trembled when she heard this.

"Don't worry, I'll go and have a look." Xiang Nan immediately greeted him, "Oh, Master Lu, why are you here?"

Hu Suhua put her ears on the window, curiously listening to the movement in the courtyard.

"The prince is in a hurry to use the jade belt, so he specially asked me to remind him." Lu Zhengming explained, "Xi Langzhong, quickly take the jade belt, and follow me to see the prince."

"Ah?!" Hu Suhua's heart skipped a beat when she heard that.

I'm really afraid of something. The jade belt was lost, and she didn't know how to explain it. Unexpectedly, Lu Zhengming came to remind him.

"Lord Lu, come in and talk." Xiang Nan's expression changed, and he dragged Lu Zhengming into the room.

"What's the matter, yo, why is the house so messy, you rummaging through boxes and cabinets, catching mice?" Lu Zhengming laughed.

"Oh, Lord Lu, what a disaster. That jade belt is gone!" Xiang Nan stomped his feet, "We both searched for a long time, but we couldn't find it."

"Ah?!" Lu Zhengming also looked shocked, "Xi Langzhong, this is not a joke! Is the jade belt really gone?"

"Lord Lu, my old man is not joking, I really can't find the jade belt." Hu Suhua said hastily.

"Oh, this... this... If the prince knows about this, what should I do?" Lu Zhengming also panicked, "If the emperor knows, it will be even more serious."

"Lord Lu, for the sake of saving you before, you can help me make an idea." Xiang Nan cupped his hands again and again.

"Yes, Master Lu, our old man saved you back then." Hu Suhua also said hastily, "You can't just ignore him."

"Sister-in-law, I, Lu Zhengming, am not the kind of ungrateful person. I will definitely take care of the affairs of Xi Langzhong." Lu Zhengming explained, "But this matter is very tricky. This jade belt was given to Prince Jing by the emperor. If it is lost, it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor, and the whole family will be executed, it is not a joke."

"Chop?!" Hu Suhua was so frightened that she almost fainted when she heard this, "Then what should I do, Master Lu? I beg you to come up with an idea."

"This matter cannot be hidden. I suggest telling Prince Jing and let him think of a way." Lu Zhengming thought for a while and suggested, "Xi Langzhong saved Ge Ge's life, I think the prince will show kindness outside the law. .”

"Okay. It's a blessing, not a disaster. It's a disaster that can't be avoided." Xiang Nan nodded, "I lost the jade belt that the lord gave me. I deserve death. I'll go and ask the lord face to face."

"Old man..." Hu Suhua burst into tears and said on the spot.

...

Xiang Nan and Lu Zhengming then went to Prince Jing's mansion and reported the matter to Prince Jing.

When Prince Jing heard that the emperor's jade belt had been lost, he was furious, and immediately ordered Xiang Nan to be imprisoned in Prince Jing's mansion.

When the news came, Hu Suhua fainted on the spot.

Defu and all the juniors hurriedly pinched her and poured soup and medicine to rescue her.

"Master Lu, why is the prince so cruel? Our old man saved Ge Ge's life, why doesn't he miss the old kindness at all?" Hu Suhua cried, "My old man, our good life has just begun, why did you come out?" It’s such a big deal. I didn’t agree with you coming to the capital at the beginning, but now it’s all right..."

"Sister-in-law, don't cry, the prince has no choice but to." Lu Zhengming said hastily, "That jade belt is a gift from the emperor, if you lose it, Prince Jing is a prince, and his life is in danger. Saved Ge Ge's life, but the law is so strict that even the prince has to be afraid."

"Lord Lu, what about our old man?" Hu Suhua cried, "If he dies, I won't be able to live either."

"Sister-in-law, don't be too hard on yourself. The prince doesn't want to make things worse. After all, Xi Langzhong saved Ge Ge's life, so he also wants Xi Langzhong to leave a descendant." Lu Zhengming quickly persuaded, "You should prepare soon. , when the time comes, you will be pregnant with Xi Langzhong's child. For the sake of the child, you should also live."

In ancient times, if a death row prisoner had no heirs, before he died, the government would often allow his wife to go to prison so that he could conceive.

Hu Suhua was taken aback for a moment, then nodded quickly.

...

Afterwards, Hu Suhua was taken to the palace, where she met Xiang Nan who was imprisoned.

"Old man, you have suffered." Hu Suhua couldn't help crying when she saw him.

Xiang Nan was locked in an empty room, except for a table and a bed, there was almost nothing in it.

"Ma'am, what are you doing here?" Xiang Nan asked in surprise, "Isn't it enough to kill me alone, do you want to involve you?"

"No, the prince knows that you have no heirs, so he specially let me in to carry on the family line of your Xi family." Hu Suhua said hastily.

"Isn't that a waste of effort? If you could give birth, we would have given birth sooner." Xiang Nan stamped his foot and scolded.

"You..." When Hu Suhua heard this, she was ashamed and angry.

In peacetime, she must be savage. But now that Xiang Nan has only been locked up for two days, her hair is messed up, her face is gray, and her eye circles are red. It looks like she has suffered a lot, and she can't get angry at him.

"Then what should I do, or, I...I'll help you...buy...buy a girl with yellow flowers??" Hu Suhua said with trembling lips.

In addition to the wife, other people can be arranged to listen to the wife in prison. Like a prisoner without a wife, his family will usually buy a golden girl to send in.

"I don't want it." Xiang Nan shook his head and said.

"Then what do you want?" Hu Suhua asked hastily.

"I...I think...the proprietress whose food is everything." Xiang Nan stammered.

"Why can't you forget her?!" Hu Suhua immediately got angry when she heard it, "What's so good about her? You just like her so much?"

Xiang Nan sighed, "It's fine if you don't agree. Maybe I, Xi Laile, are destined to die without children."

Hearing what he said, Hu Suhua froze.

There are three types of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is having no descendants. How sad it was for him to die without a child.

"That... this... okay." Hu Suhua gritted her teeth and said, "I agree?"

"Madam still loves me." Xiang Nan said with emotion.

"It's good that you know." Hu Suhua glared at him and said, "However, it's useless for me to agree, it depends on whether people agree or not."

"Yes." Xiang Nan nodded.

...

After Hu Suhua went back, she was going to send Telford back to Cangzhou to invite Sai Xishi.

"Sister-in-law, leave this matter to me." Upon hearing this, Lu Zhengming volunteered and said, "Xi Langzhong is my savior, and I regret not being able to help him. This time, even if I do my best gone."

"Yeah." Hu Suhua nodded, "Lord Lu, when you get there, tell Boss Sai well and ask her to agree to come down. We old man can't lose his son."

"Hey." Lu Zhengming nodded.
