Neither Wu Ziya's wet nurse nor she knew that she was infertile. They both thought that she was injured and had difficulty in having children.
It is not uncommon for people in the capital to have difficulty in having children. As long as they take care of themselves for a few years, it is not uncommon for them to have another child. Therefore, Wu Ziya herself did not take it to heart.
Wu Ziya's expression shifted slightly, a bit interested, yet also a bit worried: "I don't know how long I'll have to recuperate. I can't just watch Bai's son be made the Crown Prince, can I?"
The nurse laughed and said, "Madam, you're worrying too much. Wasn't the Xuanwu Marquis's heir just established? We have the master here. We just need to keep the Marquis under control and not establish him until the young lady has her own child."
Wu Ziya felt relieved but also a little worried: "Nanny, do you think this child will be close to me in the future? What if I give birth to my own child and he comes to harm my child?"
A fierce glint flashed in the nurse's eyes: "Then kill the mother and save the son! Without his biological mother to rely on, he will naturally think more about himself. When the time comes, the illegitimate child raised by his legitimate mother will definitely plan for his legitimate brother and his own future."
The nurse remembered that Madam Wu had wanted to drive her away, and it was Wu Ziya who kept her. She became more convinced that the grace of raising a child was greater than the grace of giving birth. She advised earnestly, "Don't worry, young lady. Concubine Jia is pregnant with twins. When a woman gives birth, one leg is already at the gate of death. She doesn't even need to bribe the midwife to save her from death. As long as you are sincere to the child, he will definitely obey your orders since he has lost his biological mother."
Wu Ziya's eyes lit up, she grabbed the nanny's hand and told her, "You have to do this for me!"
"Don't worry, young lady." The wet nurse was confident.
Outside the window, Aunt Jia held her belly and slowly backed away, following a deserted path out of the main courtyard. After returning to her room, she locked herself in and cursed through gritted teeth: "You are so vicious, Wu Ziya!..."
Concubine Jia cursed for a quarter of an hour before she took a breath. She thought and thought again, and opened the door to go to Old Madam Lu to ask for her protection, but then she remembered that in the eyes of those mistresses, concubines like them were nothing more than baby-making machines.
no.
For the first time, Aunt Jia regretted that it would have been so much better for her to be a spy for the Fourth Prince. Why did she have such thoughts? She wanted to break away from being a spy and live a peaceful life. Now she was about to die.
What did Aunt Qi do last time?
Aunt Jia closed her eyes and thought. After all, she was a spy and was smart by nature. She was blinded by other thoughts and did not see the situation clearly. Now, for herself and her children, she calmed down and naturally came up with an idea.
"Don't blame me for being unjust if you are unkind!" Aunt Jia suddenly opened her eyes, a hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes, and then she regained her obedient look, went out to call her maid in, packed up her things and moved to the main courtyard to live.
Only when you are close to the water can you get the moon first. Only when you are close to the water can you subtly influence Wu Ziya to have thoughts that she shouldn't have, right?
Don't be in a hurry. She still has four or five months to give birth, so just plan slowly.
In a blink of an eye, it is August 15th, the day for family reunion.
This day was also the final of the military competition. To avoid delaying the reunion dinner in the evening, the competition was scheduled early in the morning. A total of eleven people entered the finals, and Lu Yan was the last one in eleventh place.
Xie Qing came to the Xuanwu Marquis's residence early in the morning to pick up Qin Wan. His attentiveness made Qin Zhan very unhappy: "Don't we have a carriage at home? Are we asking you to pick her up?"
Xie Qing ordered his men to present the gifts they had brought: "It's time to give out festival gifts. I've been busy out and about before the festival, so now I have some time to rest."
Qin Zhan's expression brightened a little when he saw the gift. Gifts were no longer expensive or cheap, as long as they were thoughtful. "Have you had breakfast?"
"No." Xie Qing chuckled. In front of the Qin family, he never had to act pretentiously.
"Come in and have dinner." Qin Zhan glared at him unhappily and turned to walk into the mansion.
After Xie Qing and Qin Wan had breakfast, they went to the camp in the suburbs.
The camp is on high alert at this moment. After all, the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are coming to watch the competition, so protection must be in place.
The emperor had already arrived. His stern face melted away the moment he saw Qin Wan. He waved to her, "Changping is here? Come, sit next to me."
There was a table on each side of the emperor. On one side was the empress, and on the other side was naturally the prince.
Qin Wan and Xie Qing were given seats before they even bowed, and she sat next to the emperor.
The queen was extremely jealous. She took a deep breath and looked at Qin Wan again. This girl was so pretty. If she hadn't made any mistakes and couldn't be deposed as the queen, would this damn emperor want to depose her and marry Qin Wan into the palace instead?
Once this thought came up, she couldn't suppress it. She gritted her teeth and smiled, "Your Majesty is so good to Changping. If you don't know her, you would think she is your Majesty's princess."
The emperor said with a smile: "What's so good about a princess? She has to get married, or the Marquis of Qin knows how to raise a child. Look, he has raised a good daughter-in-law for me."
Qin Zhan was sitting far away, but that didn't stop him from speaking loudly: "Your Majesty's son was well-raised, but he kidnapped my best granddaughter."
"Hahaha! They are all good kids!" The emperor laughed and gave Qin Zhan face.
The Fourth Prince sat a little further away and bowed to Xie Qingyi, saying, "Crown Prince, congratulations."
"Haha." Xie Qing turned to look at him. The moment he entered the training ground, he put on a mask. The smile on his face did not reach his eyes, and it was impossible to tell what he was really thinking. "Why are you congratulating me? I don't seem to have any happy events recently."
The eldest prince knew what he was congratulating: "Fourth brother, of course, is congratulating the Crown Prince for being praised and recognized by Father. After all, Father gets angry every time he sees the Crown Prince recently. It is said that he doesn't even dare to put fine things in the porcelain teacups in the imperial study. It would be a shame to smash them, wouldn't it?"
