Peng snorted, "Last time, my parents-in-law and I explained the seriousness of this to him, and he actually said that even if something happened to the censors over the years, Da Cong never brought disaster to his family. It sounded like he was thinking too much about his family."

This is really a bold move. Chen Heng knew Meng Xuanlang from history, and only had some poems praising him. From his youth to adulthood, he was still able to maintain his original intention from beginning to end, which is difficult for ordinary people to do.

The same goes for Lu Ji'an.

I thought of Liu Yan again. He really wanted to be a good emperor. With these people around, the monarch and his subjects were of one mind. It would be hard not to become an emperor of all ages. What a pity.

"Oh, Ah Heng." Peng's expression suddenly grew worried. "My mother wrote to me saying there's a serious riot in Changzhou. My cousin and brother both think it'll spread to the imperial capital within six months. Everyone in Yuezhou is in a state of panic, and we in the imperial capital have no news at all. This doesn't seem like a simple situation."

"You're about to give birth, don't think about these things." Chen Heng patted her hand soothingly, "Just focus on giving birth to the baby. There's no point in us worrying. With Master Xiao Meng, Xie Jian, and Master Lu here, we can just wait and see what happens."

Mrs. Peng nodded.

Although Qin Shangshu did not have a particularly good reputation, the common people's evaluation of him was at most inaction. For example, when a scholar was beaten by people from the Qin Mansion, the news spread quickly, and within half a day, many scholars began to attack Qin Shangshu.

Chen Heng originally wanted to ask Xie Jian at night, but he didn't come until late at night. When she woke up in the morning, he had already left.

Knowing that she was worried about something, Dawei stayed to talk to her in detail.

"So this was something Ajian and Meng Xuanlang had discussed beforehand?" Chen Heng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, the emperor is hesitant. My Lord said, then let the emperor make up his mind. Madam, don't worry, my Lord will handle things prudently." The person that Dawei Ruyu admires most is my Lord, because he has thought of all the worries.

This time the adults did not show up, waiting to sing the song.

The affairs of Qin Shangshu continued to ferment. By the end of March, selling official positions, enclosing land, framing colleagues and other things were all discovered, shocking the world.

In early April, Minister Qin was taken to the Dali Temple.

Somehow a rumor got around that such internal and external troubles were a sign of the country's demise, and the rumor spread quite widely.

Needless to say, some people want to take advantage of the situation.

Just when Xie Jian and Master Lu were busy with court affairs, good news suddenly came.

Ouyang En came to tell them that he was getting married.

"Who are you going to marry?" Shen Heng stroked her slightly bulging belly and looked at him.

Xia and Nanny Feng also thought they had heard wrongly.

Ouyang En looked embarrassed: "It's Miss Xinyue."

The house was quiet.

"The daughter of Prince Qing's family?" Chen Heng confirmed again.

"Yes." Ouyang En smiled foolishly.

"You guys?" It's no wonder Chen Heng was surprised. She was too surprised. A prince's daughter and a small guard, this kind of thing could only appear in storybooks. The problem was that the two of them had nothing to do with each other. "How did they fall in love with each other?"

"I don't know either. Miss Xinyue came out of the palace in a hurry that day. I was on duty when she suddenly came to ask me if I was married. I said no. She then asked me if I had a girl I liked. I said no. She also asked me if I wanted to get married. Of course I did. Then she said she would marry me, and I agreed." Ouyang En puffed out his chest.

Chen Heng: “…”

Ouyang En said embarrassedly, "But Prince Qing, who was with Miss Xinyue, beat me up severely. I still have bruises on my body."

"Ouyang." Xia asked in surprise, "Are you talking in your sleep? Are you dreaming?"

"Of course not. I'm quite clear on that."

Nanny Feng suddenly exclaimed, "Miss Xinyue is twenty years old, right? According to imperial law, if she doesn't marry soon, her marriage will be decided by the imperial matchmaker. Ouyang is a guard, so he doesn't have to abide by this law. The imperial court will allow them to marry at a certain time."
