Wang Muzhe didn't even look at Mrs. Wang, and directly helped the old man leave.
Mrs. Wang wanted to go forward, but was immediately stopped by the servants.
"Madam, you should go back and rest. Don't make things difficult for me."
She cried and made a fuss, and finally fainted.
The Wang family was in chaos again, and it was not until the second half of the night that things calmed down.
Wang Muyu sat in her room, pounding her stomach from time to time.
A few days ago, she had been feeling nauseous and vomiting from time to time, so Mrs. Wang secretly called a doctor for her.
The doctor told her that she was pregnant, but because her body was too weak, she could only take supplements.
If Wang Muyu wanted to use medicine to abort the child, she might even lose her own life.
Wang Muyu values his life so much that he naturally wouldn't risk his own life.
But she has not yet married. Once the news of her pregnancy gets out, she will only be able to be a concubine of an ordinary family.
"No, I'm the daughter of the prime minister. How can I not get married? There must be a way."
Wang Muyu was quickly calculating something in her mind, but unfortunately, no matter how much she calculated, it was all in vain.
The next morning, Prime Minister Wang, who had been on sick leave, appeared in the court again.
He waited until Shangguan Lingyun had almost handled all the state affairs before he stepped forward respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I am exhausted both physically and mentally these days. I wish to retire early and return home. I beg for your permission."
Shangguan Lingyun raised the corners of his lips slightly, then glanced at everyone, and seeing that no one reacted, he agreed.
"Since the Prime Minister is so willing, then naturally we should prioritize our health. Okay."
Prime Minister Wang didn't expect Shangguan Lingyun to not even say a word of courtesy, and he suddenly felt a little aggrieved.
He opened his mouth to say something, and saw Wang Muzhe winking at him.
Prime Minister Wang had no choice but to shut up.
Seeing that no one had anything else to report, Shangguan Lingyun briefly talked about his plan to go to Dayu.
Since we had informed close people in advance, there was little opposition.
Even if there were a few dissenting voices, they were suppressed by close people led by Ye Pengcheng and others.
When everyone saw it, they knew that Shangguan Lingyun had made up his mind, so how could they try to stop him?
"Your Majesty understands the people's sentiments and is truly a blessing to the people. We thank Your Majesty on behalf of the people. Long live Your Majesty."
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Shangguan Lingyun ended this morning court session.
After the imperial decree granting the marriage between the eldest princess and Qin Lei was delivered to the Qin family, Shangguan Lingyun and Ye Xiaoxiao packed up and set off again.
Shangguan Lingyun had been to the border of Dayu before, so he was very familiar with the terrain here.
Wang Xiao's carriage drove very fast, and in just a few days it had already left the capital far away.
In the harem, the Queen Mother looked at the two children held in the nanny's arms and knelt in front of the Guanyin statue to pray for them.
"Buddha, I hope you can bless the two children to find the herbs safely and return to the palace as soon as possible."
After praying to the Buddha, the Queen Mother stood up to coax the two children.
Now the two children have grown up a lot. They are very smart and can recognize people.
When they saw the Queen Mother coming, the two children immediately giggled.
The Queen Mother looked at the two children and her thoughts drifted away.
Wang Xiao, who was on the road, suddenly tightened the reins. Ye Xiaoxiao in the carriage was caught off guard and threw herself into Shangguan Lingyun's arms.
"Wang Xiao, what happened?"
Wang Xiao looked ahead at the carriage warily, then responded in a low voice.
"Master, Madam, there are people blocking the way ahead."
"Who is so bold as to stop us even though they know we are traveling?"
For the safety of the two, although they were on a secret visit this time, many officials knew of their movements.
So, it can be considered a semi-transparent trip.
But I didn’t expect that soon after leaving the capital, I encountered someone blocking the road.
Ye Xiaoxiao lifted the curtain and saw that the people in front of the carriage were not some burly bad guys, but a group of thin people.
"Wang Xiao, go up and ask what's going on?"
Wang Xiao asked Tianxuan to protect his master, and then he walked up himself, but retreated after a while.
"Master, they are a group of refugees. They have no food to eat. Seeing that our carriage is more luxurious, they want to come forward and ask for some food."
Ye Xiaoxiao glanced at the dark mass of refugees in front of her, at least twenty or thirty of them.
They didn't have much stuff in the car, and even though there was space for it, it wasn't easy to take it out.
Moreover, this is only a part of the refugees, and I don’t know if there are more behind them.
The little food they have is of no use at all.
"Fellow villagers, where did you come from, and why are you like this now?"
Ye Xiaoxiao sat in the carriage and spoke to the refugees in front of her from a distance.
When the refugees saw Ye Xiaoxiao, dressed in bright clothes, in the car, their eyes immediately lit up.
"Sir, please be kind. We are so hungry that we have no choice."
"If there's no more food, I'm afraid most people here will starve to death."
Ye Xiaoxiao frowned, and when she saw the person who was leading the conversation, she asked Wang Xiao to invite him over.
It's really tiring to shout at them like this.
Wang Xiao stopped the others and invited the leader to come over.
"This is our master and mistress. If you encounter any difficulties, you can talk to them."
The man also had some vision and immediately knelt in front of Ye Xiaoxiao to beg.
"Sir, we are villagers from the Donglin River."
"Because it is the rainy season recently, the river channel of the Donglin River has been in disrepair for a long time and the Donglin River has overflowed."
