Chapter 433: Collecting Hu Ji
Xiao Yan has become accustomed to this kind of scene.
Because he is now back at court, his family often receives invitations from other ladies.
Lu Qin's mother would always ask him if he wanted to go.
Although he has never given in so far, Lu Qiniang has never been vague about what needs to be reviewed by him.
She didn't know whether the people outside were important or not, and always had to ask Xiao Yan to review it before she felt at ease.
These days, she has learned a lot from Daya and Aunt Sang. Although she feels dizzy, she has been able to make some progress.
For her, it is easy to identify with the person if she can meet him/her.
But it is a bit frustrating to try to memorize things when you can't see them in person.
Xiao Yan simply flipped through it and said, "It's okay, just reject them all."
"I saw an interesting one, whose last name is Pang. I don't know the character for that." Lu Qiniang said, "I think that should be my last name."
Her last name should be "Fatty".
"Nonsense, you're so skinny now that you're practically nothing but bones." Xiao Yan shook his head. "You still don't have a good appetite?"
"Much better. I ate half a bowl of rice tonight." Lu Qin's mother said, "Old Hu said it's okay to eat less. We have so much food at home every day now, so just one bite of each is enough. He's worried that I'll eat too much later and it will be difficult to give birth when the baby grows up."
When Xiao Yan heard that it was Doctor Hu's idea, he didn't dare to say anything.
I just feel that this child really consumes too much of Lu Qiniang's energy.
Take this as a warning and never make the same mistake again.
Xiao Yan hasn't worked at night since Lu Qiniang became pregnant.
Lu Qiniang discovered that she had some evil intentions later on, but Xiao Yan was like a monk who had received ordination, and he strictly followed the rules and regulations.
Lu Qin's mother couldn't be so shameless as to pester him.
She didn't know that Xiao Yan was scared to death by the fact that she was pregnant.
What is there that you can’t tolerate?
"Speaking of this guy named Pang, Aunt Sang told me that he's not a good person and that it's best not to have any contact with him."
"Yeah." Xiao Yan nodded.
In fact, he is not a wicked person, but he likes to enjoy himself, and -
He kept hundreds of prostitutes at home and was proud of it.
When the noble ladies in the capital heard that they were going to visit the Pang family, they were all nervous.
Because this old man named Pang not only has prostitutes for himself, but also uses them to entertain guests and turns a blind eye to it.
But he didn't treat these people as human beings at all and just sent them off casually.
Just imagine, if a man goes out for a drink and comes home with one or even two beautiful women, the hostess of the house will be happy.
Therefore, Aunt Sang also specifically told Lu Qin's mother not to have any contact with the Pang family in the future to prevent such things from happening.
We can't be careless just because Xiao Yan is self-aware now.
When it comes to temptation, staying away from it is the best choice.
"Then let's not have any contact from now on." Lu Qiniang said, "But his mother's eightieth birthday is a good thing. Generally speaking, we should go and join in the fun."
Xiao Yan said, "Forget it, so as to avoid trouble in the future."
Those who have different ideals cannot work together.
"Well, I'll listen to you."
The two of them talked about this and left the topic at that point.
But someone went to that banquet.
For example, Zhang Heyao.
Not only did Zhang Heyao go, he also took a Hu girl with him.
It is said that that Hu Ji looks a bit like Lu Qiniang.
However, the point about the resemblance is actually not very convincing. The main reason is that the Hu people's bloodline is too strong, so those with deep eyes and high noses, as long as they have a rounded appearance, will always have some similarities.
Of course, Lu Qiniang and Xiao Yan didn't know about this.
The person who is most concerned is obviously Song Mingzhen, whose interests have been damaged.
Especially when Song Mingzhen thought about the fact that she was unable to have children and Shuyu had not been able to get pregnant, the other women she arranged for Zhang Heyao were also rejected.
Now, Zhang Heyao has a Hu concubine outside. How can this be tolerated?
Song Mingzhen would not allow such a thing that was out of his control to happen.
The child has become a source of worry for her.
She originally wanted to send Song Chenghuan back to the northwest, but when she thought about the possibility that she might not be able to have children in the future, she couldn't bear to do it, so she delayed sending him away.
She thought about it again and again, and finally decided to have a frank talk with Zhang Heyao.
"Yao Lang, if you really like her, bring her home. At least I can help you control her. Besides, if she gives birth to a child in the future, it will be of barbarian descent, which is not good after all."
She almost said it clearly that Hu Ji could not have children.
Zhang Heyao said calmly, "I'm not attracted to her beauty. It's just that when I was at a banquet, I unexpectedly saw her about to be beaten to death. I couldn't bear it, so I asked for her."
"What do you mean? Why was she beaten to death?" Song Mingzhen frowned. "A person like this is obviously not a good person. Keeping him around is also a hidden danger."
"I made a small mistake." Zhang Heyao had no interest in explaining, because in Song Mingzhen's eyes, how could someone like him feel compassion?
Even he himself felt it was impossible.
But it happened.
He had already placed the person in a private residence and had no plans to bring him back.
Because since he saved people, he would not let anyone die at the hands of Song Mingzhen again.
So no matter what Song Mingzhen said, Zhang Heyao refused to give in.
Song Mingzhen didn't lose his temper in front of him, but after he left, he smashed the teacup and found an excuse to lose his temper with Shuyu, making her kneel outside for two hours.
What a useless thing!
She can't even win over a man.
Song Mingzhen didn't know whether he was scolding himself or Shuyu.
She felt that power was a truly terrifying thing.
It will make a man look completely different.
Even though she knew from the beginning that Zhang Heyao was not a good person, she didn't expect that he would change so quickly.
Madam Huo advised her, "Princess, calm down. The most urgent thing is to get rid of the one outside. Otherwise, if she really snatches a son from you in the future, it will be too late to regret it."
The issue of offspring is the root of the conflicts in the harem.
Song Mingzhen said, "Madam, let me think about it. There's no rush."
The saddest thing is that she doesn't dare to confront Zhang Heyao directly now, and has to take a roundabout way.
She got the rich and glorious husband she wanted, and when people saw her when she went out, they surrounded her and complimented her.
But she had never imagined how hard life would be.
At the same time, Sun Shun was also persuading Zhang Heyao.
"Sir, let that Hu Ji go, give her some money, and find a maid to take care of her until she gives birth. After all, it's not your child. If it's a daughter, it's fine. But if it's a son, his background will be entangled, and it will be difficult to divide the family property in a few years."
Males cannot tolerate the presence of males of different bloodlines in their territory.
This is human nature.
Sun Shun felt that Zhang Heyao had changed.
He really wasn't a compassionate person before.
Now, he felt pity because that Hu Ji was going to be beaten to death because she was pregnant.
He must have been thinking of the pregnant Lu Qiniang.
This is not a good thing.
Lu Qiniang has almost become Zhang Heyao's obsession, which will affect his future.
