www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!

The room was quiet for a moment, and the atmosphere was a bit solemn.

At this moment, Ying'er walked in quickly with a smile on her face, and said: "Concubine, the Crown Prince is back, and he brought Old Mrs. Lin with him."

Nangong Yue was startled and smiled brightly. Huamei picked up the food box and joked at the side: "Prince Concubine, that slave can save himself a trip."

After a while, Xiao Yi and Lin Jingchen walked over together, laughing and joking. Xiao Yi could be vaguely heard saying with a smile: "...Grandpa, there is everything in Bixiao Hall, you just need people to come. Just fine..."

Nangong Yue thought about it and guessed something. Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Yi entered the room, he couldn't wait to say: "Ah Yue, grandpa promised to come to Bixiaotang to celebrate the New Year with us."

"Grandpa!"

Nangong Yue tried to get up with Baihui's help, and naturally greeted Lin Jingchen with a smile. While asking Lin Jingchen to sit down, she did not forget to glare at Xiao Yi.

Why do you invite grandpa to come over to celebrate the New Year? ! What this guy said sounded nice, but in fact it was Sima Zhao’s intention, and everyone on the street knew it!

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows at Nangong Yue, his smile became even brighter, and he had no intention of covering it up.

Over the past few days, seeing Nangong Yue’s belly getting bigger day by day, which meant that the day of her daughter’s birth was approaching day by day, while Xiao Yi was looking forward to it with joy, she was also increasingly worried that Nangong Yue would be in danger. They say that giving birth to a child is like going through hell...

I had a bad dream last night. After waking up in the middle of the night, Xiao Yi couldn't sleep anymore. He looked at Nangong Yue's sleeping face most of the night. Early in the morning, he made the decision to leave the house and visit Lin Jingchen. Invite his old man to Bixiaotang.

In this way, everyone can spend a good New Year together in peace and bustle. Isn’t that killing two birds with one stone? !

Thinking about it, Xiao Yi winked at Nangong Yue triumphantly, feeling that he had done a great job in this matter.

Seeing the twinklings flirting with each other, Lin Jingchen smiled and stroked his long beard, and said with a smile: "Ayue, come, grandpa will take your pulse."

Although Nangong Yue felt that she was fine, as soon as Lin Jingchen opened her mouth, she immediately stretched out her wrist obediently like a sheep. The maids on the side couldn't help laughing. Maybe even the prince couldn't make the prince concubine. Make this expression.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became light and warm.

Lin Jingchen felt Nangong Yue's pulse attentively. After three breaths, he took back his hand, nodded with a smile and said: "Yue'er, you are in good health, but you still have to remember to move around more on weekdays, so that you won't have a baby when the time comes. It’s too difficult.”

Nangong Yue has heard these principles said by her grandfather many times and knows them all. However, since she was young, she has been busier and her body is getting heavier, so she has become a little slack accidentally. .

She smiled shyly and agreed: "Grandpa is right. I have gained a lot of weight recently. The next step is to eat less and move more."

Xiao Yi looked at Nangong Yue up and down from the side, but he actually didn’t think so.

According to him, Ah Yue didn't eat too much at all. Apart from her big belly, she didn't gain any weight...but she still held back and didn't say anything.

After all, giving birth is not like fighting. He is a novice, so he still has to listen to his grandfather for everything.

"Grandpa," Xiao Yi suggested, pouring tea and water for Lin Jingchen obsequiously, "why don't you make a list for Ayue, stipulating what she eats every day, how much she eats, and how long she takes to walk. Grandpa, what do you think? ? I will watch A Yue carefully as she follows your instructions." Anyway, from today onwards, he started to take a bath, and he just happened to keep an eye on A Yue every day.

The corners of Nangong Yue's eyes twitched, and she didn't know whether it was better to say that Xiao Yi was "excessive" or "overkill".

When she was about to say something, Lin Jingchen nodded and said in agreement: "Ayi, this is a good idea."

So Que'er immediately suggested cleverly: "Then slave girl, go and prepare pen and ink."

It is rare for the maids to feel that the prince has come up with a reliable idea. With the list written by Mrs. Lin, they act according to the list every day, which makes them feel at ease.

Following that, everyone in the room was busy with enthusiasm. Even the few lists in Baihui's hand that recorded Bixiaotang's dishes these days were used as reference for recipes. Xiao Yi occasionally stood aside Interjecting, adding some of Nangong Yue's favorite foods to the list, he also didn't forget to give Nangong Yue a look of appreciation.

Nangong Yue endured it again and again, but was still amused by him and burst into laughter.

When Han Qixia entered the house later, she saw such a lively scene and joined the crowd...

The next day is the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, New Year's Eve, and the last day of the year. Everyone has to get rid of the old and make new ones, and pray for blessings.

The servants were busy cleaning, pasting door gods, spring couplets, blessing characters, window grilles, and New Year pictures... By noon, the palace was completely new. In the evening, everyone in the palace began to worship their ancestors under the leadership of King Zhennan. Afterwards, the family sat together to have a New Year's Eve dinner. This year, the second and third rooms of the palace were divided. In fact, the New Year's Eve dinner was much quieter than in previous years, but The atmosphere was more harmonious and lively.

On this night, everyone stayed up until midnight when the sound of New Year firecrackers suddenly sounded, announcing the beginning of the New Year...

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, all the juniors in the mansion went to pay New Year greetings to King Zhennan. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, they went back to their parents’ home and on the third day of the Lunar New Year, they visited relatives. However, because Nangong Yue was heavy, she did not go out with Zhou Roujia, Xiao Rongxuan and the others. Even the palace The banquet was also omitted, allowing Nangong Yue to have a rare, clean and simple New Year.

For Nangong Yue, the Chinese New Year should be like this, with less rules and etiquette, just having fun with her relatives and friends.

Since the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, people from various prefectures have been visiting me.

In fact, according to Xiao Yi, Nangong Yue didn’t need to see or care about anyone. But as the head mother of the family, how could Nangong Yue be so wanton and choose people to meet some, such as Zhou Roujia’s mother Zhou? Mrs. Tian and Mrs. Tian, ​​etc.

This Chinese New Year is Nangong Yue’s first time celebrating New Year with Xiao Yi, and it also allows her to truly experience Xiao Yi’s clinging skills. Except when Nangong Yue goes to meet a visiting female guest, it is really inconvenient for Xiao Yi to be there. Other times he was almost there.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, a group of Xiao Yi's younger brothers made an appointment in advance and came to Bixiaotang to pay New Year's greetings. Fu Yunhe, Yu Xiufan, Chang Huaixi, Yan Xijun, Xu Che, Huang Ergong and other dozens of people came Come together.

There are not so many red tapes in southern Xinjiang, so Nangong Yue followed Xiao Yi to meet these young masters.

These young gentlemen were always laughing and joking together, casually wishing Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue New Year greetings, and calling them eldest brother and sister-in-law affectionately.

Everyone brought New Year gifts. Those who brought snack boxes and bacon and venison **** were considered ordinary ones. Others brought a braised pig head, which is said to be the most delicious in southern Xinjiang. Some brought a wolf. Zaizi's "bastard", someone also brought freshly hunted live geese, and was teased by a group of young men whether he wanted to come to eldest brother's place to propose marriage...

The Bixiao Hall was filled with chatter and laughter, and even the air around seemed to become lively and joyful because of their participation.

After paying New Year greetings, the young men sat for a while and then left in twos and threes. Some said they were going to other places to pay New Year greetings; others made an appointment to have a drink in a restaurant and were discerning enough not to drag Xiao Yi along Some were in a hurry to find their fiancées, such as Fu Yunhe; others had nothing to do anyway, so they just chatted leisurely with Xiao Yi for more than half an hour, such as Chang Huaixi and Yan Xijun.

However, when this man was together, the topics he talked about were not interesting to Nangong Yue at all. They were either military matters, drinking, or riding and shooting... By the time they started talking about hunting, Nangong Yue had already considered whether he should I went back to the house to hide away, but I looked up and saw a familiar slender figure walking slowly into the yard. The visitor was wearing a moon-white t-shirt, and his whole body was pure and simple. Even though he was celebrating the New Year, There was not a trace of jewelry on her body, and behind her was a little maid carrying a red lacquered wooden food box.

It’s Sister Fei! Nangong Yue couldn't help but feel happy.

Xiao Yi, Chang Huaixi and Yan Xijun in the room also saw Xiao Fei, and they all raised their brows with different expressions.

Of course Xiao Fei came here to find Nangong Yue. She was a little surprised to see Chang Huaixi and Yan Xijun also there, but she continued to walk forward gracefully and entered the house.

"Brother, sister-in-law."

She first blessed Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue, and then met with the two young masters.

"Mr. Chang, Mr. Yan."

The two young masters were both a little embarrassed, and they stood up to greet Xiao Fei: "Miss Xiao."

Chang Huaixi glanced at Xiao Fei quickly, with a stiff expression, embarrassed to look directly at her, secretly blaming his mother, Mrs. Chang.

A few years ago, my mother and my third sister, Chang Huanwei, came to Bixiaotang to meet the Crown Princess. After returning, my mother proudly told my father that she wanted to marry Miss Xiao for him. She also said Why did he tell the imperial concubine that he only waited for Miss Xiao to pass her filial piety period in the middle of the year? After that, even the third sister Chang Huanwei quietly followed him and told him that like mother, not like daughter, she I think Miss Xiao is a very nice person, and the implication is obvious.

And Yan Xijun is not much better than Chang Huaixi. The stupid thing his aunt Madam Yan did that day at the King of Zhennan's banquet has long been spread among the various prefectures in southern Xinjiang, and it is inevitable that it will reach his ears. , but no matter how embarrassed or apologetic he felt, he could not apologize to Xiao Fei for that matter.

Tao Yao, who was following Xiao Fei, took all this into consideration and thought to herself: These two young masters are really not as generous as their own girls.

Nangong Yue, who was sitting at the top, raised her eyebrows slightly. She probably guessed what was going on and couldn't help but laugh.

Xiao Fei didn't notice anything was wrong between Chang Huaixi and Yan Xijun. When she saw Yan Xijun, she couldn't help but think of the other party's stupid dog. Although the dog was stupid, it was still quite lovable, so she asked casually Said: "Master Yan, how is your falcon?"

Yan Xijun coughed dryly, cleared his throat, and said, "It's very good."

Then, there is nothing to say.

Xiao Fei was not familiar with Yan Xijun, so she just greeted Yao Ying casually, and then ignored him. She smiled at Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, I just made some dumplings, so take them Let me give you a taste."

The fifth day of the first lunar month is commonly known as Powu. According to custom, dumplings are eaten.

But Xiao Yi didn't believe that Xiao Fei could make food that was edible, and frowned.

Seeing this, Chang Huaixi quickly seized the opportunity and said goodbye decisively: "Brother, sister-in-law, then Ajun and I will not disturb you. I will also take Ajun to my house to celebrate the New Year." Chang Huaixi looked for him casually. An excuse.

He and Yan Xijun are foreign men. Now that Xiao Fei is here, it is inconvenient for the two of them to stay for a long time.

Xiao Yi responded without leaving them alone.

Then a little maid in green clothes came over and led the two young masters away.

Nangong Yue looked at their slightly stiff backs and raised her lips with interest. The next moment, she saw Xiao Fei personally presenting the hot dumpling soup to her, looking at her expectantly, dark His eyes seemed to be able to speak.

"Sister-in-law, try these dumplings quickly..."

Looking at Xiao Fei's pure and clear eyes, Nangong Yue couldn't help but sigh in her heart: Sister Fei is really ignorant! ...But don’t worry, Sister Fei is still young. Once Xiao is born, I will slowly choose for her.

The two young masters left Bixiaotang with complicated expressions, and happened to see a familiar figure riding out from the gate of the palace.

It’s Marquis Pingyang!

The two looked at each other.

But the preoccupied Marquis Pingyang did not notice Chang Huaixi and Yan Xijun galloping on the street.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the streets outside were full of lively firecrackers, one after another, and the "cracking" sound of firecrackers made ordinary people feel joyful in their ears, saying "Congratulations on getting rich" to each other, but these sharp The monotonous sound reached Pingyang Hou's ears, and it was just an annoying noise.

Both Marquis Pingyang and the Third Princess are not having a good year this year. It can be said to be the most deserted New Year they have ever spent in their lives.

When we were in the royal capital in previous years, as two people, they were naturally surrounded by stars and moons. However, it was completely the opposite here. The entire Luoyue City seemed to have forgotten them. No one came to see them. No one came to see them. Some people came to invite him as a guest, even the cunning King Zhennan!

They have been in southern Xinjiang for more than a month. At first, King Zhennan lent hundreds of soldiers and horses to Marquis Pingyang to help find people. But later, military power was involved. Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, King Zhennan sent people They all called him back, but they just casually gave him some royal guards to help him find him. There are still no clues for these hundreds of soldiers, let alone dozens of palace guards, which are just a drop in the bucket.

The Marquis of Pingyang just went to see the King of Zhennan on the pretext of celebrating the New Year. After much effort, he got the King of Zhennan to agree to lend him troops after the New Year...

Now I just hope that Kui Lang is still alive and waiting for me to save him!

Tap tap tap...

The crisp sound of horse hooves echoed on the bluestone streets.

After turning a corner, I saw a young man in a blue cloak riding a horse heading this way dozens of feet away. This is...

Pingyang Hou couldn't help but pull the reins of his horse, feeling that the person coming seemed familiar.

While thinking, the black horse not far away galloped closer, and the young man’s upright face became clearer and clearer, making Pingyang Hou feel that the other person looked more and more familiar...

Of course the other party also saw Pingyang Hou. He slowed down his horse with a "hush" sound and stopped two or three feet away. Then he clasped his fists and saluted Pingyang Hou on the horse: "The last general, Li Yunqi, is here to see the Marquis. ”

Li Yunqi's expression was a little complicated. He had actually known that Marquis Pingyang and the Third Princess had come to Luoyue City last month, but he hesitated again and again, not knowing whether to go and pay his respects. This delay was postponed until the New Year... Unexpectedly I happened to meet him on the road today.

Could it be that this was a sign from God, telling him that it was time for him to make a decision!

"Captain Li!" Marquis Pingyang looked at Li Yunqi and suddenly thought of it.

By the way, there is such a person. He seems to be the young general who was sent by the emperor to **** An Yihou Guanyu Bai to southern Xinjiang last year.

To Marquis Pingyang, Li Yunqi was just a small figure, insignificant at all, so he had never thought of this person before.

After Li Yunqi looked around, he lowered his voice and said: "Master Hou, this is not the place to talk... I will report something eventually."

Pingyang Hou thought that Li Yunqi had been in Southern Xinjiang for a year and knew more about Southern Xinjiang than he did. Besides, he was indeed in a dead end now, so he nodded in agreement.

Li Yunqi followed Pingyang Hou to the inn. When only the two of him were left in the room, Li Yunqi took a deep breath and reported decisively and seriously: "Master Hou, I wonder if you know that An Yihou and Zhen Hou are Do you have a close personal relationship with Prince Nan Xiao Yi?"

Pingyang Hou thought of something, his face changed slightly, and he asked: "Why did you say this? Do you have any proof?"

Li Yunqi sorted out his thoughts and told him that when he was in Yanding City last year, he discovered that An Yihou and Xiao Shizi had a very good personal relationship. Xiao Shizi also asked An Yihou to participate in the military affairs of southern Xinjiang, etc., and the two often worked together in Luoyue City. All the comings and goings were told to Marquis Pingyang one by one.

Pingyang Hou's expression became more and more solemn. Before, Mrs. Qiao only told the third princess in general that Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai were very close to each other. Xiao Yi once handed over the military power of Yanding City to Guan Yubai, but Pingyang Marquis only thought that after Guan Yubai arrived in southern Xinjiang, Zhennan Prince and his son secretly gave Guan Yubai some benefits, and they reached an agreement for mutual benefit and mutual benefit. But now listening to Li Yunqi's detailed explanation, it seems that he is not convinced. It's just that simple.

Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai seem to be close friends? !

Then things will be much more complicated. Marquis Pingyang has to consider that Guan Yubai may have other plans for coming to southern Xinjiang this time...

"Li Xiaowei," Marquis Pingyang asked in a deep voice, "Since you know this, why didn't you report it back to the emperor?"

If he had known this earlier, he would not have come to Southern Xinjiang unprepared, nor would he be in a helpless situation now!

Li Yunqi's expression froze for a moment, and he regretted saying it again.

As Guan Yubai once said to Xiao Yi, Li Yunqi is not a smart person, so he has been hesitant and unable to make up his mind.

For example, at this moment, he began to regret what he said just now, and felt that he was really thankless. Now he would not only be blamed by Pingyang Marquis, but also offend Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi.

Li Yunqi felt uneasy and could only say reluctantly: "Master Hou, this matter is of great importance. Both An Yihou and Xiao Shizi have noble status. They are not 100% sure of the outcome, so how can they dare to report it to the emperor rashly..."

If the emperor chooses to trust An Yihou and Xiao Yi, then he will become a treacherous minister who sows discord, and his future will be ruined from now on!

Pingyang Hou didn't speak for a while, his face as dark as water.

Now it seems that if what Li Yunqi said is true, then the emperor's plan to ask An Yihou to come to southern Xinjiang to check and balance Xiao Yi may not only be wrong, but also play into Xiao Yi's ambitions.

Years ago, the note he sent to the royal capital only mentioned the disappearance of Kui Lang, but did not mention An Yihou and Xiao Yi... So could this matter become a bargaining chip for him? If Prince Zhen'an's Mansion can stand on Prince Shun's side, Prince Shun's strength will naturally increase greatly!

Pingyang Hou thought deeply, with a flash of light in his eyes.

Maybe this is not his crisis, but maybe his biggest gain from this trip to southern Xinjiang!

Pingyang Hou reluctantly suppressed the joy in his heart, dismissed Li Yunqi with a few words, and told him to shut up and be careful in his words and actions. Li Yunqi felt that he had escaped disaster and retreated almost in despair.

After Li Yunqi left, Marquis Pingyang, who had not even had time to burn incense after returning to the inn, went out again and headed towards the Zhennan Palace. However, this time he entered not the gate of the Palace, but the gate of Bixiaotang. The gate of East Street is famous for its New Year greetings to Prince Xiao.

The servants of Bixiaotang naturally did not dare to neglect. They invited Marquis Pingyang to sit in the main hall and asked others to pass the news.

Pingyang Hou was high-spirited at first, but as time passed, he became more and more impatient.

A few pots of tea have been served, but Xiao Yi never showed up!

Just when Marquis Pingyang was about to fall out, he finally saw a figure in purple robes walking towards here.

Xiao Yi appeared belatedly!
