Chapter 131 Weird Bloodline Identification

Chapter 131 Weird Bloodline Identification

On the sixth day of February, good news finally came from the North.

General Yuheng ordered his military advisor Cang Yi to lead a raiding team to burn Di Rong's rear grain and grass. Di Rong failed to borrow grain from Chi Yanshi, which led to a disagreement. General Yuheng led an army of 250,000 to break through Di Rong and Chi Yanshi one by one, driving them hundreds of miles away and retreating to the north of Mangshan.

Di Rong and Chi Yan had no choice but to submit a letter of surrender to Dayue and promised to provide a certain number of cattle, sheep and horses to the court every year.

Along with the good news came a letter from home.

Jiang Yuyan looked at the line of Arabic numerals and smiled knowingly.

There was a translation underneath the open Thousand Character Classic.

"Ma'am, the North is too cold. I miss you so much."

The only words I can express from my heart are: The North is too cold, and: I miss you so much.

However, knowing that Jiang Mingan and Cang Yi were safe and sound, Jiang Yuyan felt relieved...

…………

At the same time, Concubine Jia, Princess Baoyue and Zeng Miaoyi seemed particularly heavy-hearted and sad.

The Tianlao is now under the control of Xie Yuan, and even visiting the prisoners is not allowed.

Concubine Jia wanted to go to Qianyuan Palace to cry every day, but was stopped by Empress Hua and Eunuch Li.

Finally, several people could no longer sit still.

"Brother, you can't just ignore us, mother and son! Please save Yi'er, he's your nephew!"

A trace of cruelty flashed across Zeng Miaoyi's face. Now that the prince is in power, his voice is getting less and less. If Xie Yuan ascends the throne in the future, can they still keep their current glory?

"Your Majesty is ill now." Zeng Miao closed his eyes, "Xie Cong and Jiang Mingan will soon return to Beijing, and we don't have much time..."

Concubine Jia opened her eyes wide and looked at him, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes becoming more distinct. "Brother?"

Miao Zeng whispered to her, and directly shocked Concubine Jia on the spot…

The storm is coming in the capital, but the princess's mansion is full of joy. Jiang Yuyan ordered people to make bamboo cards and invited Princess Feng Ling and Hua Xiangxiang to play Landlord together!

Princess Feng Ling was smart and soon mastered the trick. Jiang Yuyan was a modern person, so she was naturally familiar with the art of playing cards. Only poor little Hua Xiangxiang had the most paper stuck on her face. She was so angry that her mouth bulged.

Her husband was very worried and kept comforting her softly, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, take care of your stomach!"

Hua Xiangxiang pouted, touched her belly and said, "Baby, don't be as stupid as mom when you grow up!"

Jiang Yuyan covered her mouth and laughed, "How can you talk about your own baby like that!"

Hua Xiangxiang came to hold Jiang Yuyan's arm intimately, "I heard that the more you interact with a person, the more your child will resemble that person when he is born. I'd better borrow more of my two elder sisters' cleverness."

Jiang Yuyan smiled and said pretentiously, "Then I have to collect copyright fees."

Feng Ling and Hua Xiangxiang were stunned when they heard this.

Jiang Yuyan explained it happily.

Several people burst into laughter.

Jiang Yuyan looked at Hua Xiangxiang and felt particularly fond of her because she was pregnant but had the radiance and tenderness of a new mother despite being young.

When she gave birth to Mu Yan, she was already over 20 years old, and her physical and mental conditions were relatively mature. It was really too risky for women here to start giving birth when they were in their teens.

So he told her, "Rest for two years after giving birth, and then have another baby after you are 20 years old."

Jiang Yuyan secretly popularized the concepts of ovulation period and safe period, and told the two how to calculate the ovulation day, so that they could control the progress of their pregnancy.

The unmarried Feng Ling blushed with shame.

Hua Xiangxiang said: "Sister seems to be a doctor, is this the way to calculate the date of pregnancy?"

"What is Kunyi?" Jiang Yuyan was puzzled.

Hua Xiangxiang looked at her as if she was looking at some rare treasure, "Is your family so closed-minded? We women of the big month have a nesting period when we get married. After it ends, a doctor will come to check the pulse. If you are not pregnant yet, there are also special female doctors to calculate the date. The days before pregnancy are all good days for men to show their affection. If you want to give birth to a child for someone, go to his room. After the baby is born, if you can identify the bloodline with the unicorn fruit, you can be included in the man's family tree..."

"..." Jiang Yuyan was stunned. Is this the way Dayue Country identifies bloodlines?

It's a double guarantee. The honeymoon period is called the nesting period. No wonder except for Xiao Yuanyan and Shen Yi, the others all asked someone to check her pulse. "But what is that lin fruit?"

Hua Xiangxiang explained: "The lin fruit is used as a medium to attract the fetus when it is born to determine whether the blood is compatible."

Jiang Yuyan seemed to understand, it was so magical! Could this really have the same effect as a DNA test?

"Is this reliable?!"

Hua Xiangxiang said ignorantly: "It has been like this for hundreds of years. We in Dayue don't care much about this. Giving birth to a baby for a man is a favor to them. Only the first men can enjoy the 'Lin' selection ceremony, and many of them take their mother's surname."

Jiang Yuyan was silent for a moment after hearing this. This could be considered a favor...

As for why they had not asked the so-called Kun doctor to calculate the date for them, it was probably because they had said before that they did not want to have a child so early. But by some strange coincidence, Mu Yan was born first. Thinking of this, Jiang Yuyan felt quite guilty.

After seeing the two off, Jiang Yuyan sneaked to Chen Garden and rolled up her sleeves to reveal her white and tender wrists.

"What?" Shen Yi asked in surprise.

"Let's see." Jiang Yuyan pouted. She didn't know if her efforts on the 15th day of the first lunar month had any effect.

Shen Yi raised his eyebrows and gently placed his warm and slender knuckles on her pulse.

At last, with a complicated look, he said, "You are pregnant..."

Jiang Yuyan showed an expression of "as expected". It seems that the date calculated by the modern medical team and sophisticated instruments is quite accurate.

Shen Yi felt his pulse again, frowning, as if he was quite worried. "It seems like there are two..."

Counting the days is not your own!

Jiang Yuyan was stunned. Her mother and uncle were twins. Her ancestors had the gene for twins, so this was not uncommon.

I couldn't help but jump for joy.

Chen Yi didn't care about the bitterness in his heart, and hurriedly held her, "Take care of your body!"

Only then did Jiang Yuyan calm down.

Seeing that Shen Yi looked calm but depressed, he quickly and gently persuaded him, "I can't... favor one over the other..."

Chen Yi sighed. His wife was good in every way except that she was a little too sentimental. If she really favored one over the other, he would be confident that she would only see him...

"It's okay, the most important thing is that you are safe." Shen Yi finally smiled faintly.

Jiang Yuyan was touched. Shen Yi broke the clan rules for her, and had to change the inherent concepts he had since childhood, and accept that she had another husband and had a child with someone else, which was originally more difficult than ordinary people.

I couldn't help but hug him tenderly.

Shen Yi curled his lips and said jokingly, “You’re going to be a mother again and you’re still so spoiled?”

Jiang Yuyan choked, her old face turned red, and she stomped her feet and ran away.

That night, the three men in Jiang's house learned that she was pregnant with twins. They were both happy and nervous.

Xie Jingyu still held out hope and said he would ask Doctor Kun to calculate the date.

Men's nature is to preserve their own bloodline, and Jiang Yuyan is willing to meet this legitimate request. However, she is very afraid that the family will form a small group and the children will be treated unfairly in the future.

After hesitating for a while, he said, "If the blood relationship is determined, will you treat the children differently depending on their closeness?"

Qin Shangyu said gently: "Wanwan, don't worry. Women are rare and fertility is difficult. Every child in a wealthy family is precious. As long as it is yours, we will treat it equally..."

Xie Jingyu also nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, they are all our brothers' flesh and blood, we all treat them as our eyes..."

Jiang Yuyan felt relieved. She was also quite touched that they always put her wishes first.

She poked Xiao Yuanyan with her hand and said shyly, "I know the date of pregnancy. This time it's Ayan's." After that, she covered her face and said, "Your doctor Kun is not as reliable as me. Each of you will have one baby, and that's it. Don't make trouble with me..."

Xiao Yuanyan was so happy when he heard this. He got two at once. He was so amazing!

Xie Jingyu and Qin Shangyu were not disappointed either, and both sincerely congratulated Xiao Yuanyan.

It's just that because of my current identity, I still need to wait for Jiang Mingan to come back to discuss this matter...

The next day, Jiang Yuyan ordered someone to call Su Qingyue and wrote a letter to the empress overnight.

Su Qingyue had a special communication channel with the Queen. Within two days, Feng Ran learned the good news that he would soon have two more grandchildren...
