Chapter 193 Happy Events During Pregnancy, Goodbye
Zong Si went outside the Great Wall and hasn't returned for some time.
As a female, it was not convenient for Ningfu to frequently go in and out of the military camp, so she usually stayed inside the pass with the families of other generals in the camp.
Every three days, Zong Si would send someone to deliver a letter, which mostly mentioned daily life.
Inside the pass, close to the border, is also a boring little town with very few people. Even those who are willing to stay in the town are just some merchants making money, so it is not very lively.
However, because Ning Fu is the daughter-in-law of Prince Xuan's Mansion and the Crown Prince's Consort, the female relatives often come to visit the palace.
Nyingfu had never met most of these female relatives before. Apart from the military commanders who were in charge, most of those who came here to fight for their lives were grassroots generals. Most of their wives were also able to endure hardships and came here happily. However, there were very few noble ladies like Nyingfu who followed their husbands into battle.
Even if you come, you can't stay for long.
Nymph's personality is easy to get along with, which surprised all the ladies. When people get along with each other, they treat each other with sincerity. Nymph has a high status, so not everyone is willing to curry favor with her, but because she is a nice person, they are all willing to come and sit with her.
It was inconvenient to talk about poetry and painting with these ladies, but they were very good at cooking. Every day they had either northern noodles or southern delicacies, and Nymph also became a lot fatter.
"If the prince comes back, he will think that the princess is pregnant." The speaker was Lieutenant General Lin, Lin Shicheng's wife. She and Lin Shicheng were a young couple, came from the countryside, and spoke frankly and directly.
"This round shape is somewhat similar to when you were pregnant with your fourth child." The woman next to him also agreed.
"That's right. How long has it been since the Crown Princess had her period?"
Nymph had lived through two lifetimes but had never had any children. Although she was not in a hurry at the moment, she still couldn't help blushing. However, she also knew that the joke was not malicious, so she just smiled slightly.
Just when I was about to talk about the date, I found that I had my period for a while.
Nymph couldn't help but pause.
"She is really pregnant," Madam Lin said with a smile, "Don't worry, Princess. We have a midwife here, and the military doctor in the barracks will come to help. Even if she is pregnant, just rest assured and take care of the baby. We can all help."
"Many wives were conceived in the interior of the country, and many heroes died here. I think the heroes still want to continue to be our Dayan people."
Ning Fu was still undecided, and only said: "I have had some problems before, so I still need to see a doctor."
But if she had a child at this moment, Nymph's mood was still a little complicated. On the one hand, she was not prepared, and on the other hand, she was also quite busy at the moment.
She did not make this matter public, but first asked a doctor to take a look at her.
This time, it turned out that she was really pregnant. It was a positive pulse and the pulse was stable.
Dongzhu was pleasantly surprised and said quickly: "I will write a letter to the old lady and the uncle."
Ning Fu stopped her, she had no plans to mention it for the time being, the war was raging these days and she didn't want to disturb Zong Si.
Although the ladies did not know what the situation was, she had lived through a lifetime and had a general idea of it.
It took more than half a month before a small victory was achieved in the battle. Zong Si temporarily returned to the interior to rest, and Ning Zheng also returned with him.
During this period, Ning Fu should have received the letter from Ning Zheng asking her to take good care of their mother, but she did not receive it. She wrote to Afu and Fu Jiahui, but they also had not received any letter from their brother.
This unexpected development made Nymph somewhat puzzled and uneasy.
When Zong Si arrived at the courtyard of the palace, Ning Fu was helping several ladies to knead noodles, when they saw a man in armor with a serious and handsome face walk in.
The ladies stood up and saluted, but Zong Si's gaze stayed on Nyingfu for a moment, and then he paused, and he obviously noticed that Nyingfu had become a lot rounder.
"Ladies, you don't have to worry about me, just continue." Zong Si said in a deep voice.
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Nymph and turned to walk towards the bedroom.
Ning Fu had no choice but to follow. When she reached the door and had not even had time to step in, she was picked up sideways. She was caught off guard and couldn't help but scream.
Immediately afterwards, a barrage of kisses began to fall.
There was a lot of noise outside the door, and although the two people inside seemed quiet, they had already been kissing passionately.
Zong Si held her completely in his arms with both hands. He loved not only her lips, but also her slender neck, as white and tender as pearls and jade, which made him linger.
When Zong Si's nose touched her neck, she felt a tingling sensation.
For some reason, she remembered someone's words: whoever a man looks for first when he comes home is the one he has in his heart. However, men are the most shrewd and rational. Even if they are in love madly, the power of the backyard will be given to whoever it is. The matter of favoring someone who is the source of trouble only exists in storybooks. No man would be so impulsive and short-sighted.
Ning Fu suddenly said: "Your Highness will never take a concubine again in his life."
Zong Si looked up at her, surprised that she mentioned this topic.
"It's okay even if you can't bear the credit. The prince is sober and rational, and the household affairs will not fall into the hands of outsiders anyway." Ning Fu said with some loss of interest.
"The food is yours, and I will be yours too." Zong Si lowered his head and wanted to continue, but was pushed away by her.
"The prince can resist touching me"
Zong Si hesitated for a moment, looked at her thoughtfully, and said, "Now that we have a child, I will naturally know my limits and will not hurt you or the child."
Ning Fu was surprised that he knew about this, and frowned and said: "Dongzhu complained to you."
A smile appeared in Zong Si's eyes, and for a moment, he was like a snowflake blooming in the cold winter, and he no longer looked cold. He comforted her, "Dongzhu is loyal to you, so how could she tell me, an outsider, about your affairs?"
To Dongzhu, Zong Si is just an outsider compared to Ning Fu.
"I saw that you were in a bad mood today and you were much more relaxed, so I had this guess in my mind." Zong Si said seriously, "Besides, before leaving the capital, I worked hard almost every day. Now I have reaped the rewards, and my hard work is worth it."
Nymph thought for a moment and explained to him: "I didn't mean to hide it from you, but you were supervising the battle and I couldn't disturb you."
This was a great thing. Although Zong Si had been thinking about sex with her on the way to the interior of the country and was determined not to let her off tonight, Ning Fu's pregnancy made him forget all those beautiful things.
He held her hand, and said more gently: "Have you been feeling unwell recently?"
Ning Fu shook her head and said worriedly: "This child, is he coming at the wrong time?"
"My child, it's the right time for you to come at any time." Zong Si worked so hard and fought for power, just to build an empire for his child.
"Prince, go wash up first." Nymph is now more sensitive to smells, and couldn't help but say that he has a dusty smell and a smell of dust on him.
Zong Si went to wash up first, and after changing into an ordinary robe, he said, "Your brother is here, and he is in the front yard now."
Nymph ignored him and went to the front yard.
Zong Si ordered Qu Yang to grind the ink. Naturally, he had to write a letter to inform his mother and mother-in-law about Ning Fu's pregnancy.
Qu Yang said shyly: "Sir, can I also write a letter to Miss Zhang?"
Zong Si glanced at him. It was not a bad thing for him that Qu Yang liked Zhang He. When Qu Yang got promoted in the future, he would be a good match for Zhang He.
"You've been with me for some years. When you return to Beijing, it's time for you to be promoted." Zong Si said lightly.
Qu Yang knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Thank you, my Lord."
He could also tell that Zong Si was in a very good mood today. Perhaps only the day when the prince got married could be compared to today.
"Some time ago, the doctor came to examine the Crown Prince's wife." Qu Yang reported to him in detail.
"Call him in for questioning." Zong Si said after a moment's hesitation.
On Ning Fu's side, she saw Ning Zheng, who was also wearing armor, in the front yard. The war was urgent recently, and he was a valued minister under General Ye. It was no exaggeration to say that he was General Ye's confidant. General Ye suffered a crushing defeat, and Ning Zheng turned the tide. It can be seen how tired he was.
He was much darker, thinner, and had wounds bandaged on his body. When he saw her, he still shouted with great joy: "Afu."
He didn't look sad at all.
"How is my brother's injury?" Ning Fu asked with concern.
"Don't worry, they are just superficial injuries. Six enemies surrounded me and finally died in my hands." Ning Zheng said with a smile. He wanted to reach out and pinch her face, but then he remembered that she was married, so he took his hand back. This made him feel a little lost, but when he thought of Zong Si's current attitude towards A Fu, he felt relieved.
He was cold and indifferent to Afu when he was a child, but now he has to listen to whatever Afu says.
"Why are you fat?" Ning Zheng immediately added, "But my sister is still beautiful even when fat. No one can compare to her."
"Sister Fu can't compare to me," Ning Fu said with a smile, "I'm going to complain to Sister Fu."
Ning Zheng coughed a few times and said, "Afu, stop bullying your brother."
Ning Fu stopped teasing him and said seriously: "Brother, have you been hiding something from me recently?"
Ning Zheng was bewildered and asked: "What do I have in mind?"
Seeing him like this, Nymph was puzzled for a moment. He didn't seem to be hiding something from her. Could it be that in this life, because of the changes in the previous events, her brother's fate had changed without her knowing it?
"Brother, the battlefield is ruthless, you must be careful." Nymph thought for a moment and said, "Maybe someone will plot against you at this moment."
Zong Si had also said this to him, and as he didn't want to make his sister worry, Ning Zheng nodded solemnly.
"You still have to go back and marry Sister Fu." Nymph said, "Once the war is over, you can get married."
Ning Zheng couldn't help but smile a little more and nodded. It was a longing for happiness. That day was what he had been looking forward to for a long time.
During the meal, Zong Si also mentioned that Ningfu would become more plump in the future, so he would make more clothes for her. He would rest in the study today.
Nymph nodded.
Ning Zheng put down his chopsticks and said to Zong Si with a cold face: "No matter how plump my sister is, she is more than suitable for you. If you dislike Afu, I will take her back to the Duke's Mansion."
It was rare for Zong Si to be questioned, and then he said in a deep voice: "Afu is pregnant."
Ning Zheng was stunned.
Then he couldn't help laughing out loud, and wanted to slap himself, "Look at me, I'm just a piece of wood."
Nymph couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.
At night, Zong Si still did not go to the study. He still wanted to stick with her. He felt at ease just hugging each other.
Nymph told him about her brother.
Zong Si said: "I have also tested him, and I did not find anything wrong with him."
"Perhaps, what happened in the last life will not happen again." Nymph said, "But I think that brother may not bring other disasters upon himself."
Zong Si pondered for a moment and said, "I follow him every day. If I find anything wrong, I will pay attention. Now your brother has made great contributions in the war. In the last life, the one who was afraid of this was probably Meng Ze. As for this life, it is probably Emperor Jingwen."
In the previous life, the Duke's Mansion had already declined, and only Ning Zheng was left to fight for fame, fortune and power. The emperor was not afraid of the Duke's Mansion, so naturally he was not afraid of him either.
But in this life, the Duke's Mansion is thriving, but Emperor Jingwen may not be so. He probably does not want to see the union of the Duke's Mansion and Prince Xuan's Mansion.
Zong Si thought casually that as long as Ning Zheng died, if he plotted against him again and failed to save him, the Duke's Mansion might think that he did not save Ning Zheng for the sake of profit, and there would naturally be grudges between the two mansions.
There will also be a rift between him and Nymph.
"Afu, I won't abandon your family for the sake of profit. I might have done so in my previous life, but in this life, we already have children, and you are everything to me. If I have any shortcomings, you shouldn't doubt me like that." Zong Si said to Ning Fu.
Actually, this statement is not completely free of suspicion. Maybe he deliberately said this in advance to clear himself of suspicion.
But Nymph was willing to believe him. His recent performance in this life had been very reliable, so she promised: "No matter what, I will not doubt you."
Zong Si was healed by her time and time again.
No matter how much dissatisfaction and resentment he had in the past, they all turned to ashes and were blown away by the wind. Now, when he thought about his father and brother's betrayal, it seemed so insignificant.
Zong Si and Ning Zheng had to return to the military camp on the second evening. Originally, Zong Si was not supposed to go back to the interior, but he came back just to let Ning Fu meet Ning Zheng.
Ning Zheng smiled and guessed for a long time whether Ning Fu was pregnant with a son or a daughter, and then asked Zong Si.
"I like both daughters and sons." Zong Si said seriously, without any perfunctory attitude or favoritism. His children will naturally be first-class monarchs and princes. Whether it is a boy or a girl, he and Afu will educate them well.
"When you were little, you were so disgusted with Afu. Thinking about this fate, it's really magical."
Zong Si couldn't help but smile. When he was little, he certainly wouldn't believe that the person he would marry in the future would be A-Fu. When he was more than ten years old, Zong Si had heard his parents talk about countless female monarchs, but Ning Si had never been one of them.
Ning Fu felt a little lost after Zong Si left.
However, a few days later, Lu Xingzhi and Shui Ying, who were working in He County, came to the small town inside the pass.
Ning Fu and Lu Xingzhi met at the residence of Mrs. Lin Shicheng.
The first moment Lu Xingzhi's sight fell on Ning Fu's round body.
His emotions seemed to fluctuate significantly.
