The Way of Favors

The space inside is narrow, and Qiuhe successively took out the musk used in nine pots of chrysanthemums, didn't Aunt Li notice it? Even if there is no difference in scent, autumn lotus burying the musk in the flowerpot will reveal traces, right? "

Mother Wen sighed and stretched out her hand to show Fu Rong.

Sisters Fu Rong and Fu Xuan looked over together, and saw that Mother Wen was holding a few gray particles smaller than rice grains in her hands, looking like mud.

"The musk is hidden in it. Niangniang sent people to try it. As long as it meets water, the gray material outside of the musk will melt away. When there is no water, this layer will cover up the musk fragrance. The pot is also difficult to attract attention, so Qiuhe just pretends to touch the chrysanthemum leaves, and then takes the opportunity to throw small particles into the pot..."

Fu Rong was silent. The other party made the musk into such a shape, and she was really clever. If her sister was not keen and the winter scenery was dull, she would definitely appreciate the pots of chrysanthemums. Maybe she would not stay in front of the chrysanthemums for too long, but every pot would smell one. Smell, smell it every day, it won’t take long for her child to be affected.

It's simply killing without seeing blood.

"Have the people behind Qiu He found out?" Fu Xuan asked solemnly.

Mother Wen looked ashamed: "Qiu He happened to live in a room alone. According to other court ladies, Qiu He behaved like usual before dinner yesterday, and went back to the room after dinner. The next day was just his turn. She rested. She did not leave the house and did not arouse people's suspicion until Father Cen went to investigate and found that her tea was poisonous. After searching the house, besides a pack of musk powder, she also found a pack of such gray powder with musk remaining in her fingers. It should be the musk mud she rubbed herself."

"Qiuhe is an orphan and has never been to visit relatives in the palace, but she is kind-hearted and loves to laugh. She is very popular among the court ladies. Aunt Li often sends her out to inquire about some news. It may be that she was bought by someone while inquiring about the news." The mother said with a calm face, "Unfortunately, she is dead, there is no clue in the room, and the empress is helpless. She can only continue to stare at the eunuchs of the Zhaoning Palace and the eunuchs to see if she can find other clues."

Everyone knew that there must be an envoy behind Qiu He, but the other party's methods were clean and neat, and after extinguishing his mouth, he completely broke the clue to follow the vine.

Fu Rong looked at his sister, and said to Mother Wen: "It's been a hard day since Mother ran, so go back and rest. Fortunately, there is no danger today."

Mother Wen nodded and left.

The real murderer must be in the palace, and Fu Rongxian asked Xu Ling to release two of Meixianglan Xiang.

"Sister, what do you think about this?" Fu Xuan helped Fu Rong to lie down on the couch and asked in a low voice while gently pinching Fu Rong's leg.

The younger sister was considerate, and Fu Rong was not polite. He looked at her and said, "Qiu He can quickly make a move when the empress gave me flowers on the occasion. It can be seen that she has been bought by someone long ago. When the empress gave birth to a daughter, her daughter died. There is no possibility of rebirth. Then the other party bought Qiuhe and gave her musk, which is enough to prove that the other party’s purpose is to get rid of my child. If Qiuhe was bought earlier than I was pregnant or I was married to the prince, then the other party targeted It’s not me alone, but to get rid of King Su’s children, and every heir of King Su’s mansion in the future. As a mother-in-law, it is common for the mother to reward her daughter-in-law, and the other side is careful and can always catch the gap."

"But her movements are too fast." Fu Xuan said calmly. "My elder sister also said that the empress's flower viewing is a temporary motive. Even if Qiuhe is extremely clever, she immediately thought of this trick and returned when she went to the flower room to choose flowers. The house is squeezing musk mud, how can she be sure that Aunt Li will choose her to send flowers to the palace? She is not served by the flower house. Aunt Li chose her by coincidence."

The corners of Fu Rong's mouth curled up, "Yes, this is the only doubt in the whole plan. Autumn lotus has a musky scent in her nails to prove that she pinched the mud pill by herself, but if she pinched it too quickly, it made people suspicious. I guess she was not willing to take poison to commit suicide, it should have been someone who quietly poisoned her tea, and then planted and blamed her after Qiuhe died."

"Planning and blaming the blame means that the musk mud was not put by Qiuhe, she is just a ghost for the dead." Fu Xuan said firmly, "It is not Qiuhe. According to Mother Wen, only Aunt Li is left. She is The grand palace lady of Zhaoning Palace, silently killing a palace lady could not be simpler, and she is familiar with the character of the empress, she should be able to expect that the empress will mostly appreciate flowers to her sister, not today or later, so make musk mud in advance. Be prepared for a rainy day. Sister, did you think of this?"

Fu Rong had no doubt: "The mother has lived in the palace for so long. How can she not think of what we two can think of? However, only the mother knows what Aunt Li is like. This time the mother fined Aunt Li for half a year. Maybe I believe her, maybe I don't have any plans, we just look at it."

Aunt Li was in Zhaoning Palace, and they were beyond reach, so they had to hand it over to Concubine Shu.

The two sisters chatted for a while, and after talking about Fu Rongfa, Fu Xuan covered the quilt for her sister and walked out lightly.

The curtain fell and Fu Rong slowly opened his eyes.

My sister still thinks less.

In addition to Aunt Li, there were two others who had touched the nine pots of chrysanthemums, one was Concubine Shu, and the other was Cui Wan who chose flowers with her.

Consort Shu will certainly not harm her grandson, Cui Wan...

Cui Wan has a chance to make a move. What is the purpose of her move?

Fu Rong couldn't think of the reason, but she remembered Xu Jin's attitude towards Cui Wan. Perhaps Xu Jin knew better in his heart which of Aunt Li and Cui Wan was more suspicious?

The night is quiet, Zhaoning Palace.

Concubine Shu leaned on the couch, and Father Cen knelt down in front of the couch, knocking her leg with a beautician in his hand.

Both Mother Wen and Aunt Li are the dowry of Concubine Shu, and they are trusted by Concubine Shu the most. Grandpa Cen was assigned to serve by Concubine Shu when she entered the palace. After more than two decades, Concubine Shu also trusted her.

In the silence, two more clappers rang outside.

Father Cen quietly raised his eyes, and saw his wife staring at the chrysanthemum on the windowsill in a daze. After the girl reluctantly went out of the palace in the afternoon, she was silent, and the dinner was useless. She had been so dazed after dinner. , Trembled with flowers.

"Manny, it's late at night, can the minion serve you and rest?" He lowered his voice and persuaded.

Concubine Shu finally looked away from the pot of chrysanthemums, turned her head and asked him, "Who do you think it is?"

Cen Gonggong's heart was stunned.

When the empress asked, she obviously thought of something with him.

At first glance, Qiu He was instructed to move his hands and feet. After careful consideration, Aunt Li and Cousin were both suspicious.

Who is more likely?

Aunt Li is the most suspicious. Two major incidents happened to the empress after entering the palace. One was that the prince Su was poisoned and seriously ill. The other was an accidental dystocia when she gave birth to the princess. At that time, a group of people were dealt with. But who can guarantee that those are not scapegoats? Who can guarantee Zhaoning? Is there any traitor or eyeliner next to Gong? If what happened yesterday was really what Aunt Li did, then the two previous cases can be attributed to Aunt Li.

As for the girl...

If it is a girl who makes a move, there must be a reason. Bought by someone? The honor and disgrace of the Cui family are all hung on the empress and the two princes. The girl is not that stupid. Simply want to harm the princess's child? Cousin girl is young, has such a deep scheming? Even if there is, why is she?

Father Cen lowered his head, and suddenly several scenes flashed through his mind.

Before leaving the palace, Lord Su often came to Zhaoning Palace with the six princes to ask for peace. Grandpa Cen remembered that the girl preferred to talk to Lord Su when she was a child, and Lord Su treated her like a sister. It was not until the prince went out of the palace at the age of fifteen that the brothers and sisters met less often, and the eight-year-old cousin began to get closer to His Royal Highness Six.

Cousin girl interested in Lord Su?

Grandpa Cen thought it was impossible. When he was a child, the closeness should be just brother-sister relationship. When the cousin was ten years old, Su Wangye's attitude towards the cousin became colder. When the cousin's love was first opened, there were six children with childhood friends, how could he like one? A man who is indifferent to her?

Concubine Shu thought so too.

The niece is raised by her side. She knows the attitude of the two sons towards the cousin very well. The eldest son always treats the cousin as his sister. When her niece was ten years old, she noticed that her eldest son's attitude had changed drastically. She didn't even say a word when they met, and asked him once in wonder. The son told her that he found that the sixth brother was not happy that he was talking to his cousin, so he began to avoid it. Concubine Shu was very pleased, the second son was young and ignorant, just thinking about grabbing the attention of his cousin, the eldest son had long been thinking about brotherhood.

And her niece, a ten-year-old girl, knew something, and when she noticed that her cousin's attitude had changed, she complained aggrievedly. Concubine Shu certainly couldn't tell the truth. She didn't understand only that her son had a weird temper. Her niece felt wronged and wanted to go away. The fourth brother came over and said hello with a smile, clever and sensible.

Concubine Shu did not see that her niece had a relationship with her eldest son, nor did she believe that her niece would be bought by others to murder her fourth sister-in-law.

Then Aunt Li is left.

Consort Shu closed her eyes.

In the most unreliable palace in this world, who are the people around these people trustworthy?

"From tomorrow, you secretly pay attention to her every move, if it is really her, you will definitely make another move in the future."

After a long while, Concubine Shu spoke quietly.

On the second day after Cui Wan left the palace, Xie led her daughter to visit Fu Rong.

Fu Rong was lying on the bed. As soon as the two entered the room, she weakly apologized: "My aunt and sister came to see me. I should have gone out to meet me. It's just that I haven't been very comfortable these two days..."

"You're going to lie down, Wanwan told me about that." Xie took a few steps and hurried to Fu Rong's bed and asked with concern: "Is your body okay?"

Fu Rong Rourou smiled: "It's okay, but I was a little frightened. The imperial doctor has prescribed anti-fetuses."

"That's good, that's good." Xie's brows stretched out, turned his head to call Cui Wan aside, and said to Fu Rong amusedly: "Your sister heard that the pots of chrysanthemums she chose made a mistake, and she was very guilty. , I had lost money with her aunt for a long time, and since I went home yesterday noon, I have not been able to refresh myself. I took me here early this morning to beg Jing.

As soon as she finished speaking, Cui Wan's eyes were red, "Sister-in-law..."

The little girl looked pale and haggard, and she did seem to be sleepy and sleepy. Fu Rong smiled, and first persuaded: "Sister, don’t be like this. When you cry, I will feel uncomfortable. This is clearly because others want to harm me. Caught, our relatives are jealous of each other, isn't it just what each other wanted?"

Cui Wan lowered her head and wiped her tears, "But I..."

Xie’s nodded her forehead: “Don’t be it, your fourth sister-in-law knows it clearly, not as suspicious as you think. Hmph, in my opinion, this must be a ghost over there. They always look at the fourth child as unpleasant. Yeah." He raised his chin to the east as he spoke.

Fu Rong's eyes darkened, and he bit his lip helplessly. "It's unfounded and unfounded, let's just leave it alone."

Xie sighed and patted Fu Rongshou, "Okay, let's not talk about the unlucky ones. What about the fourth child, this is the tenth day of the tenth, do you say when you will come back? Your belly is getting bigger every day When he comes back, with him by his side, you can feel more or less relieved."

Speaking of her husband, Fu Rong's eyes brightened: "Last time the prince sent a letter, saying that he should be able to reply before Xiao Xiao."

Just after speaking, Lan Xiang walked in excitedly: "Wang Hao, the Lord is back!"

Fu Rong was overjoyed, and he was about to sit up while propping up the bed. Xie wanted to help her, but Xu Ling who had been guarding her was rushed first.

Cui Wan's eyes changed.

Xie didn't care, anyway, she was just polite, and led her daughter to get out of the way to watch Xu Lingmeixiang and Fu Rong wear clothes together. Before they finished wearing them, Xu Jin Fengchen came in, wearing an ink-colored robe, his face was cold, and brought a chill.

☆Chapter 166

Huai'an is closer to the capital than Xindu, less than five hundred li. Yesterday morning, Fu Rong sent someone to deliver a letter to Xu Jin. The guards took the Liangju from the Western Regions to pay tribute to Xu Jin and sent the letter to Xu Jin just after noon. Hands.

For this Blizzard disaster relief, it took Xu Jin more than a month in his previous life to arrange everything properly and rush back to the capital where he returned to Xiao years ago. In this life, the family’s beautiful wife is pregnant, Xu Jin’s return is an arrow, and he has the experience of disaster relief in the previous life. Knowing which officials are worthy of the task, knowing which villages and towns are most affected by the disaster, it is natural to deal with it twice with half the effort.

Without Fu Rong's letter, Xu Jin was also ready to come back, and told Fu Rong that Xiaonian's return trip was to give her a surprise. Knowing that something was going on at home, Xu Jin took a long time to explain some trivial matters. He hurried back before dawn this morning.

Entering the inner room, Xu Jin didn't look at Xie or Cui Wan, his gaze fell directly on Fu Rong who was sitting on the bed and was about to put on shoes.

Fu Rong watched him smile, his eyes bright but his face pale.

Xu Jin's heart sank, and he took a few steps to help Fu Rong who was about to stand up again to the bed, and told her without anyone else: "Why don't you move around if you feel uncomfortable, lie down obediently." Then he instructed Fuyinyuan without looking back. The three maids, "Send off guests."

The smile on Xie's face instantly froze.

She knew that this nephew hadn't waited to see herself, but she didn't expect Xu Jin to punish her without even calling her aunt, which was extremely rude.

Cui Wan pulled her sleeves and smiled and persuaded: "Mother, the fourth brother and the fourth sister-in-law are missing for Yueyu, and the fourth sister-in-law is uncomfortable. Let's not disturb them and come back another day."

"Yes." Xie patted his daughter's little hand, and in a short time he recovered his kind appearance, said hello to Fu Rong, and led Cui Wan away.

The mother and daughter got into the carriage, and the smile on Cui Wan's face finally couldn't sustain. Once again, she recalled Xu Ling's move to forbid her mother from approaching Fu Rong, and whispered to Xie's: "Mother, do you see whether the fourth brother and her doubted us? Up?"

Xie's expression changed, and he asked her, "Why do you say that?"

Cui Wan whispered: "Mother wanted to help her up, but she was stopped by the maid before she touched her. I guess she told the maid to guard us first. There is also the fourth brother, he used to be indifferent to us. You're welcome."

Xie took her daughter's hand, thought about it, and smiled: "Wan Wan has too much heart. She couldn't easily suspect you before the real murderer was found. Now the real murderer has taken poison and killed herself again. Why would you be suspicious of you? It's natural for her maid to stop me. When I was pregnant with your brothers, I also asked the maids to be careful and careful. Today, if I changed to your second aunt, Xu Ling would still stop me. As for your fourth brother, come out After such a big event, he was feeling angry. Seeing her face is not good, he was worried, naturally he was not in the mood to be polite with us."

Is that right?

Cui Wan was dubious.

Seeing her daughter looking sad, Xie's eyes flashed with regret and hatred: "God gave us a good opportunity to think of such an ingenious way, but it was a pity that six girls broke a good thing."

Her elder sister had a good fate. She became the favorite concubine of Emperor Jiahe, and then gave birth to two sons. Xu Jin was even more highly regarded by Emperor Jiahe, both civil and military, so that even though Emperor Jiahe became the eldest son of the queen when he became king As the prince, Xu Jin still won a high reputation among courtiers. With prestige but not jealous of Jiahe Emperor, how can Xu Jin have the opportunity to sit in that seat in the future?

Then the daughter married Xu Jin, now she is the princess, and may become the queen in the future. If you marry Xu Hao, you can only become a princess.

The daughter is both talented and beautiful, with family background and relatives, and she is completely worthy of Xu Jin. The only regret is that her daughter is seven years old from Xu Jin. Later, the sixth elder is stalked and confused, causing Xu Jin to alienate her daughter.

The Xie family refused to admit their fate, nor did their daughters. As long as Xu Jin did not get married, they would still have a chance. Xu Jin got married last year. If the wife had a lot of background, they might have given up too. But Fu Rong is just the daughter of the concubine of the Hou Mansion. No matter how talented Fu Pinyan is, his life experience is a weakness, so even if his daughter is a concubine. Fu Rong didn't dare to put his concubine's prestige with his daughter.

What about the concubine?

Xie raised his eyebrows triumphantly.

Xu Jin took care of her daughter very much when she was a child. Now because the sixth child avoids her daughter, once her daughter enters the palace, Xu Jin doesn’t need to avoid her daughter. There are many daughters. In other words, after a daughter becomes a concubine, she can immediately take back all the love of Fu Rong's husband and mother-in-law.

With her daughter and Xie next year, Xie plans to find a way to successfully move her daughter into the palace. Since Fu Rong himself didn't need to be afraid, what they had to do was to prevent Fu Rong from giving birth to Xu Jin's eldest son before his daughter. Xu Jin's first son must come from his daughter's belly, occupy the eldest son first, and then slowly seek the title of Princess Su or even the queen.

"Wan Wan, don't worry, let's take a look at what she is born with. She is really a son, and it doesn't mean that he will grow up smoothly." Xie took the trance-looking daughter in her arms and whispered in her ear. "Wanwan, you have to remember that you can only become a big thing if you are calm. Now the Zhaoning Palace and Su Palace are tightly guarded. Let's not take action in a short time. It is better to think about how to marry your fourth brother next year. Wan Wan is also a big girl."

"Mother..." Cui Wan spoiled softly, only to think of Xu Jin's importance to Fu Rong and turning a blind eye to her, and she felt bitter.

She wants to marry him, besides marrying him to stand taller, she also really likes him.

It would be great without Fu Rong, and it would be great without Xu Hao.

Closing her eyes, Cui Wan bit her lip bitterly.

Fushouyuan.

Xu Jin returned early, and Fu Rong was very pleasantly surprised. He took his hand and asked, "Didn't the prince say that he came back before Xiaoyian? Why is it here today?"

Xu Jin sat on the edge of the bed, staring at his wife who was leaning on the bed. He couldn't see enough: "Don't worry, you will come back first. Why is the thick complexion so ugly? I am not feeling well?" I dare to report that I am safe. Did you lie to him?

Fu Rong touched his face and smiled embarrassedly: "There is no discomfort, my child and I are fine, don't worry, Lord." Then he handed him the veil next to him, "Go and get me wet. I wipe my face."

Xu Jin didn't understand why she suddenly thought of wiping her face, but she got up and sat on the bed crookedly when she came back and helped her wipe her face.

Wipe off a layer of white fragrance powder, revealing a flushed face inside.

Xu Jin looked at her blankly.

Fu Rong lowered his eyes and said, "I slept restlessly last night. After playing a few games with my sister in the morning, I became sleepy again. When I was about to fall asleep, my aunt and cousin came. I, I wanted to be lazy, so I asked them before they came in. Mei Xiang applied powder to me and pretended to be sick. I didn't expect to deceive the prince too."

When she came back, Xu Jin couldn't help but smile and kissed her belly, "It's okay."

He faced her and touched her belly lightly, Fu Rong stretched out his hand and stroked his thin and handsome face.

In fact, she slept very well last night. Before Xie's mother and daughter came over, she was in good spirits, but she just lay back in bed and pretended to be sick when she was too lazy to be courteous with their wife. But she can't tell Xu Jin that she doesn't like the Xie family. That is Xu Jin's uncle, mother and cousin. Can Fu Rong dare to say that she doubts Xu Jin's relatives?

For anyone who had nothing to do with Xu Jin, Fu Rong dared to say bluntly that when Xu Jin's relatives were involved, Fu Rong would not dare to test who Xu Jin would help. She and Xu Jin rarely got to this point, and Fu Rong didn't want to upset Xu Jin because of his relatives.

But she had to test Xu Jin's attitude towards Xie's mother and daughter.

Fu Rong looked at him anxiously, "I'm disrespectful to my aunt, isn't the prince angry?"

Xu Jin was feeling the slight movement of the child under his ears. He didn't even want to reply when he heard these words: "You are my princess, what is she? I don't want to see him. Don't pretend to be sick, just let them go back."

Fu Rong was shocked.

Xu Jin saw her showing this stupid appearance and motioned her to move inside. Fu Rong understood that he had something to say, and lifted the quilt on his legs and said, "Master, put your legs in, warm and warm."

"No, I'm not cold." Xu Jin was afraid that the ice would hit her. After taking off his boots, he put a pair of long legs on the quilt, reached out his arm around Fu Rong, touched the clothes on his chest, and let her lean over and kissed her. She asked in a low voice, "Have you ever thought about who is behind Qiuhe?"

Fu Rong expected that Xu Jin would ask that way.

She also hesitated between pretending to be stupid and telling the truth. Finally, when she designed revenge on Qi Zhu that year, her mother did not hide her intentions in front of her father. Fu Rong felt that she should be appropriately smarter in front of Xu Jin. She has to pave the way to remind Xu Jin to avoid danger in the future.

"I, let's not tell the prince, I don't think that the musk mud was released by Qiuhe, Qiuhe just carried a scapegoat for others."

Xu Jin was stunned and looked at her unexpectedly.

Fu Rong repeated her inference on this point.

Xu Jin smiled and praised, "I didn't expect that Nong Nong is so smart, and he deserves to be my princess, then who do you think is the trick?"

Fu Rong rubbed his chest and lowered his eyes, "Only my mother, my cousin, and Aunt Li had the opportunity to attack that day. My mother and cousin will definitely not harm me. I doubt Aunt Li, but my mother only fined me. Aunt Li’s case for half a year, you said, Lord, I’m the one who is so worried, the musk mud is the autumn lotus, or the mother didn’t think of this layer?"

"Do you think your mother is not as smart as you?" Xu Jin turned around and held her cheek. "Aunt Li is indeed very suspicious. If the mother didn't reveal her, she mostly wanted to keep her, waiting for her to contact her master in the future. Shi will catch it all in one go, but Nongnong, you are wrong. Apart from Aunt Li, Cui Wan is also suspect."

"How is it possible?" Fu Rong asked in horror, "Why does my cousin want to harm me?"

"Be the master."

Xu Jin leaned back on the bedside and looked up at the top of the bed: "Aunt Li has served her mother for more than 20 years. She can betray her, and Cui Wan can do the same, but now we don’t have any evidence. Denong, I tell you that Beware of Cui Wan, don't tell your mother first, lest she is sad. When I catch the real murderer in the future, no matter who it is, I will make her die."

If it was really Cui Wan, she might have other reasons for harming Fu Rong, but no matter what it was, he would never tolerate it once she was found out.

Only the sixth brother...

Xu Jin shook his head. These are all guesses. Let's wait for Xu Jia's news. The most important thing now is...

"Deep, miss me?"

He put his arms around his wife beside him, lifted her chin to search for her lips, "I miss you."

He suddenly changed his mind. Before Fu Rong could keep up, his lips touched his.

Did you think about it?

Of course I think about it. I am used to sleeping with the two of them, and all of a sudden I am left alone, and my bed and heart are empty.

Long-lost gentleness, Fu Rong obediently leaned against the head of the bed, letting Xu Jin finish tasting her lips, and then gradually moved down her chin. He probably had just come back from the outside, his lips were still a little cold, and it fell on his body, bringing a different tremor than before.

"Master, no, it won't work now..." Fu Rong blushed and persuaded him after a long intimacy, seeing that he had to take off his clothes after putting the veil on. My mother said that you can't mess around in the first three months of life.

Xu Jin moved for a while, his eyes swept across her bulging belly, and landed on her white and slender hands.

He raised his eyes to look at her, and unscrupulously took off his pants.

☆Chapter 167

???? "Alright? My hands are sore..."

"What do you think?"

In the dim gauze tent, the wife's voice is shy and the husband is righteous and rascal, accompanied by a slight strange noise.

Fu Rong was not as thick-skinned as Xu Jin in this matter, and found that he had asked a silly question, and simply closed his eyes and helped him.

Xu Jin was about to return to the palace later, although he was reluctant to give up, but he didn't really make trouble with Fu Rong for long, and soon grabbed Fu Rong's little clothes and moved over.

Fu Rong hit him with anger, always using her clothes to wipe off, I really don't know what he thought.

Xu Jin watched her smile, hugged Fu Rongping for a moment, and pulled the quilt to cover her: "Nongnong, you sleep for a while, wait for me to come back at noon to have dinner together." After speaking, he got out of bed refreshed. While dressing, he glanced at the bed casually, and seeing Fu Rong looking at him with a blushing face, Xu Jin couldn't help laughing, "Can't bear to let me go?"

Fu Rong nodded lightly, his eyes were gentle and watery, and ripples seemed to come over him, lingering him, causing his heart to become wet.

Xu Jin couldn't move his eyes anymore, fumbled and fastened his belt, sat on the bed again, and leaned over to kiss her.

The lingering kiss is inseparable.

"Go to sleep, I'll be back soon." After leaving her lips with difficulty, Xu Jin pressed her forehead.

Fu Rong didn't speak, looking at his beautiful eyes with affection, hooking his soul.

Xu Jin squeezed the tip of her nose helplessly, and after a few breaths, he walked away lightly.

The person left, the gauze tent was full of his taste. Although Fu Rong was embarrassed, he couldn't help but threw the clothes wrapped by Xu Jin under the bed. After covering the gauze tent, he called Mei Xiang and the others to come in and clean it up. Meixiang Lanxiang was no stranger to this. After entering the house, she looked at the yarn tent. Meixiang cleaned the floor. Lanxiang took out a set of coat from the closet, took it to the outside couch and warmed it with the soup woman before sending it into the yarn tent.

"I serve the princess to wear?" she asked with a smile.

"Fuck you." Fu Rongjiao scolded.

Lan Xiang smirked out of the house, and saw Fu Xuan come in.

"Is my sister awake?" Fu Xuan couldn't help lowering his voice when seeing the two maids lightly.

Fu Rong heard it no matter how light he was, put down his pants and stuffed it into the bed, calling his sister into the house.

Lan Xiang followed in, hung up the gauze tent, and backed out.

Fu Xuan is smart and sensible, he is still young, only thirteen years later, so he knows very little about men and women. At this time, he sees Fu Rong's ruddy complexion and bright eyes, which is brighter and more charming than powdered cosmetics, little girl. After sitting on the embroidered stool, I rarely joked: "Brother-in-law is back, so elder sister is so happy?"

People are refreshing at happy events, and I'm talking about my sister now.

"You are not big or young, do you want to go home?" Fu Rong felt very sad when he guessed his sister's intention. Just about to hold his sister's hand, he suddenly remembered what he had touched with his hands. Rong's face was hot, and he quickly retracted his hand to the bed, and secretly scolded Xu Jin several times.

Fu Xuan was indeed here to say goodbye. She was not too old or too young. If it weren't for her brother-in-law to go out on errands, her sister was pregnant with Liujia and needed company, she would not have come to live in the palace. She's not an official brother, so how can a teenage sister-in-law live with her brother-in-law for no reason?

"Sister, take good care of you. I will come with my mother to see you another day. If you blush, you don't need to get up to send me off. Be careful of catching cold and hot."

Fu Rong nodded and smiled and said, "Then I won't give it away. By the way, Xuanxuan, your brother-in-law knows that you have done a great job, and said that this year's New Year will give you a big red seal."

Fu Xuan ignored these words, stood up, and thoughtfully put down the two gauze tents, sniffed while covering the gauze tents, and said in confusion, "How long has the tent been changed for my sister? Why do I smell a strange smell? ."

Strange smell?

Fu Rong smelled it, distinguished it, and closed his eyes and said nonsense: "It's not from the tent, it's from me. It's the same when I'm pregnant."

Fu Xuan said "Oh" without any doubt. After going out, Mei Xianglanxiang arranged a carriage for her.

Fu Rong fell asleep peacefully in the familiar breath of a man.

In the palace, Xu Jin just came out of Chongzheng Hall and strode to Zhaoning Palace.

"Is there any progress here, mother?"

Concubine Shu shook her head: "No, but don't worry, I will send someone to stare at her, as long as she contacts outside, she will not be able to escape."

Xu Jin understood when he heard this, and his mother never doubted Cui Wan.

Looking at her gentle and demure mother, thinking of Cui Wan's mother feeding her medicine when she was ill, Xu Jin also sincerely hopes that this matter has nothing to do with Cui Wan. He doesn't care about the cousin, but doesn't want to hurt his brother, let alone hurt. Mother's heart.

Back at the palace, Xu Jin first called Xu Jia for questioning. Aunt Li sold herself to Cui's house early, and there was no one outside the palace. She could only collude with people in the palace. The palace gave her mother to investigate Xu Jin and was relieved. He wanted to investigate outside. Of course it was the mother and daughter of the Xie family. .

"Master, I checked the accounts of several medical clinics and spice shops in Beijing for three months. I haven't bought musk and that kind of ashes. Would you like me to send someone to look up in several counties in the suburbs?"

Xu Jin thought for a while and said, "No, musk and other harmful things are in the hands of almost everyone in charge, and since the other party can come up with such a method, they will not keep the evidence in their hands. Starting today, you send someone to watch the whereabouts of their mother and daughter carefully, and if there are any abnormalities, please report back at any time."

Xu Jia took the lead.

Xu Jin went back to Fuyuanyuan to see Fu Rong.

After fifteen, the court had a big break, and Xu Jin basically stayed beside Fu Rong and didn't go anywhere except for necessary entertainment. As the day of childbirth approaches, Fu Rong is getting more and more nervous. Sometimes he will have bad dreams. He suddenly wakes up in the middle of the night and leaned into Xu Jin’s arms to cry, “What if I have a dystocia?”

Xu Jin didn't like to hear her say this, didn't like to listen, didn't dare to listen.

Wanting to reprimand her, she cried pitifully, crying so much that he was half-hearted, so she had to make sense to her over and over again: "What is Dong Nong afraid of? We have invited the best woman, and there is also Mother Wen by her side. Take care, my sixth brother and I were born with Mother Wen. Don’t you believe her? Even if you don’t believe in Mother Wen, you should always believe in the mother next to your mother, right? All five of your brothers and sisters were all her own. Born."

Speaking of five, he smiled.

Fu Rong knew that he was laughing at his mother who could give birth, and she couldn't help but laugh, hitting him as she whipped up, "What's wrong with five, you want older brothers and sisters yet."

"I don't have elder brothers or sisters, but I can have five children." Xu Jin tenderly kissed her eyes: "Nonnong also gave me five births, the more the better. You know, I gave Ge Chuan a fake, let He goes on a trip, except that you are pregnant and he has to come back to take care of him. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t come back for a few years. You haven’t seen how happy he is, and he has a strong spirit. He was born every other year and made him happy."

"Why are you so bad? Mr. Ge has helped us a lot." Fu Rong's tears stopped completely, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

Stop crying, Xu Jin continued to coax her softly for a while, and finally let her fall asleep again.

Because of the big belly, Fu Rong did not attend the New Year's Eve palace banquet this year, nor did his family return home on the second day of the first month.

Xu Jin went with a gift, and together with Liang Tong issued red seals to the juniors.

Liang Tong was the second son-in-law, and he was in front of him. After taking out the Fenghong, he laughed at a few juniors and said: "I declare in advance that my Fenghong is definitely not as big as your prince and brother-in-law. Tell you in advance that you have something in your heart. Count so as not to be disappointed for a while."

Fu Wan glared at him quietly, feeling that he was poor.

Fu Bao's mouth is sweet: "Second brother-in-law, don't worry, as long as you give it, we like everything."

Fu Mi stood beside her without speaking, eyes drooping, his eyes swept over Xu Jin's robes embroidered with python patterns.

Shen Qing stayed with the old lady and did not come out.

Liang Tong first issued the New Year's money, and then it was Xu Jin's turn.

The situation was similar to what Fu Rong gave to the meeting ceremony when he returned the door the previous year. Fu Bao and Fu Xuan took it openly, and Fu Mi blushed.

Xu Jin didn't care. After sending the official brother, he sent another one to the niece in Fu Wan's arms. After giving out the new year's money, Xu Jin stood one step away from Fu Wan, condescendingly looking at the beautiful little girl who was about to reach her first birthday in a few days, envious and complicated.

He was looking forward to Fu Rongsheng's son, but he also wanted to have a daughter like Fu Rong, who would call his dad sweetly like Fu Rong called Fu Pinyan. When a son is a child, he will act like a baby with his father. When he grows up, he will become stable. Not as good as a daughter, he will always act like a baby.

Qiao realized the envy in Xu Jin's eyes, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Seeing that the prince was like this, his son and daughter liked it the same.

After dinner at noon, the Qiao family led Fu Wan and Fu Xuanguan back to the palace with Xu Jin.

Seeing his relatives, Fu Rong was very happy, touched the little head of Guan'er, and listened to him fluently recite a "Three Character Classic", and reward him with a red seal. I kissed my niece’s little face again, and taught her to call her aunt. The little girl grinned but refused to shout, and she reached out to pick the flower tin on her forehead. Fu Rong bit her with anger, and also sent a red seal.

Finally, Fu Rong caught time and asked Fu Xuan, "How much money did your brother-in-law give you?" She asked Xu Jin last night, but Xu Jin refused to tell her.

Fu Xuanzheng was worried, and took out the red seal from his arms and quietly returned it to Fu Rong: "Sister, put it away, you are my relatives, you are carrying my niece, brother-in-law.
