Chapter 95



Liu Tangxi has been very panicked these days.

She has been worried about Wei Hanzhou.

Even though Wei Hanzhou said he would come to pick her up, she didn't dare to imagine that Wei Hanzhou would come to pick her up even when she was most scared.

She just wanted him to be safe.

At this moment, hearing these words seems as unreal as if I were in a dream.

Liu Tangxi's tears fell unexpectedly.

She had waited for these words for too long, with countless dark nights in between.

The guard walked up the steps and opened the lid, and light suddenly shone down from above.

Although they had only been inside for a few days, it felt like they had not seen the sun for months, or even a year. The cold, chilly air of winter that had been missing for a long time suddenly blew in.

Wei Daniu held Shu Lan in one hand and supported Wei Lao San with the other.

Wei Erhu held Zhongxing in his arms.

Zhang supported Li.

Zhou and Princess Fuping supported Liu Tangxi.

A group of people walked outside.

After their eyes adjusted for a while, they slowly opened their eyes.

It turns out that the weather outside is so good.

It turns out that it is daytime now.

The sun was hanging brightly in the sky, and it felt warm when it shone on people. The sky was blue, the snow beside the wall was glittering in the sunlight, and the dead branches were clinging stubbornly on the trees.

Not only Liu Tangxi cried, but the others also felt like they had survived a disaster, with their eyes gradually becoming moist.

Liu Tangxi looked at Wei Hanzhou in front of him, with thousands of words in his eyes that he wanted to say. However, as soon as he opened his mouth, tears fell again.

Wei Hanzhou looked at Liu Tangxi's expression, feeling extremely distressed, and held her hand tightly.

Of all her questions and words, only one sentence remained: "It's good that you are alive."

Hearing this, Wei Hanzhou lifted Liu Tangxi's hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it.

"Well, we are all alive, and we can all live well in the future."

With the word "we", Liu Tangxi's tears flowed even faster.

Looking at the two tears in his hands, Wei Hanzhou felt as if his heart was stabbed. He reached out his hand to hold Liu Tangxi in his arms.

However, before he could reach out, Liu Tangxi's expression suddenly changed.

"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" Wei Hanzhou asked nervously.

Upon hearing this, everyone else looked over.

"I...I might...be about to give birth." Liu Tangxi said.

Wei Hanzhou's face turned pale all of a sudden and he held Liu Tangxi's hand tightly.

Hearing this, Li became extremely nervous. She patted her dazed son and urged him, "Quick, take your wife back to the house."

Wei Hanzhou reacted immediately and walked towards the front yard holding Liu Tangxi.

Because of the soldiers who came here to search, it was very chaotic. Fortunately, the worthless things such as bedding were still there.

The servants in the house asked them to go home, but Li and the others had their own work to do, so they quickly went to boil water and prepare things.

Some of the guards who came from Prince Jin's Palace took Princess Fuping back to the capital to report, while others went to look for Grandma Wan.

After Li had packed up, she saw her son standing blankly at the door and said, "You are stupid. This is your daughter-in-law's first child. It won't be easy for her to give birth. It will take several hours. You should find a place to sit down. If you have something to do, go and do it first. I'm here."

Even though Li didn't understand those big things, he understood a lot in the past few days.

Now that my son is alive, it means that he is fine and we are all fine too.

If the person his son supported wins, then he must have a lot of things to do.

"No need, Mom, it's all over. I'll stay here with her." Wei Hanzhou said.

"That's fine. Then you can move a chair and sit down and wait. It's still early."

"Um."

In less than half an hour, the guards brought back four midwives and an imperial physician.

When Liu Tangxi's incident happened, the originally nervous people suddenly shifted their attention to her childbirth. As for the doubts in their hearts, they were put aside.

Wei Daniu, Wei Erhu, Zhang and Zhou and others were also busy and went to clean up the mess made by others.

Perhaps knowing that Liu Tangxi was giving birth, Wei Hanzhou was surprisingly free today. No one came to bother him or look for him.

Looking at his family members who were busy at work, at this moment, Wei Hanzhou felt as if he was still in the village and everything was so peaceful.

It was as if all the turbulent events in the court over the past two years had disappeared, and the swordplay and bloodshed of the past few days also did not exist.

It's all over.

If his wife could give birth safely, he would have nothing to worry about in this life.

Wei Hanzhou let out a long sigh.

Li's prediction turned out to be correct. Liu Tangxi gave birth from morning to night, and from day to dark.

Fortunately, mother and child are safe.

Hearing his son's cry, Wei Hanzhou felt as if he was in another world, and he was suddenly pulled back to reality.

Just as he was about to take a step forward, he was stopped by Li.

Wei Hanzhou turned his head and looked over.

"Look at yourself, there's still blood on you. You can't go in like this. Go take a shower nearby and change into clean clothes."

Wei Hanzhou then realized that he had blood on his body, and he had not bathed for several days. Not to mention bathing, he had not been able to go home in the past few days.

"Thanks for the reminder, mom."

Li smiled and said, "Silly child, what are you talking about? Your daughter-in-law has been very frightened these days. You should talk to her properly and spend more time with her."

"Yes, my son remembers it."

By the time Wei Hanzhou finished packing and went in, the place was already clean. Liu Tangxi closed his eyes, looking tired.

The child was being watched by the grandmother.

Liu Tangxi had been living in fear for the past few days, and would wake up at the slightest movement. Although giving birth was very tiring, she opened her eyes and woke up almost instantly when Wei Hanzhou approached.

Seeing the fear in his wife's eyes, Wei Hanzhou's heart tightened.

"So it's you who's here." Liu Tangxi pulled the corner of his mouth and a weak smile appeared on his face.

Wei Hanzhou sat on the bed, holding Liu Tangxi's hand, and said, "Yes, it's me. Don't be afraid, everything is over."

"Well, I'm not afraid." Liu Tangxi said with a smile.

Now that all this is over and the child has been born safely, she has nothing to fear anymore.

"Have you been to see the child? The doctor just came and said that although the child was born a few days early, there is nothing wrong with her health."

"Yeah." Wei Hanzhou responded, but did not say that he did not go to see the child.

As soon as he came in, he only saw his wife. As for the child, he had not had time to see him.

"I think he looks a little ugly, but mom said he is good-looking, like you when you were a child. I was thinking, so you were so ugly when you were a child." Liu Tangxi joked with Wei Hanzhou.

"All my wife's children are beautiful."

Although Liu Tangxi said that his son was ugly, he certainly didn't want to hear others say that his child was ugly.

So, when Liu Tangxi heard what Wei Hanzhou said, he laughed.

"Of course."

Seeing that his wife seemed to have regained her former cheerfulness, Wei Hanzhou's mood became even brighter. He put Liu Tangxi's fingers to his lips and kissed them.

Liu Tangxi naturally also discovered the difference in Wei Hanzhou.

He seemed to no longer have the tension he had a few days ago. To be exact, it wasn't just during this period of time, but since Wei Hanzhou came to the capital, he had been very nervous.

Although he didn't say anything at this moment, Liu Tangxi could feel that he seemed to relax all of a sudden.

His expression was relaxed and his posture was casual.

The person in front of her is the man she likes, and the person lying on the small bed beside her is her son.

Liu Tangxi also felt that he was surrounded by happiness.

However, thinking of a question that had been on his mind since he came here, Liu Tangxi pursed his lips, hesitated for a while, and asked: "But the King?"

Wei Hanzhou paused for a moment, raised his eyes to look into Liu Tangxi's eyes, nodded, and gave her an affirmative answer: "Yes."

Although Wei Hanzhou's appearance proved this result, Liu Tangxi still couldn't hide his excitement at this moment. The smile on his face gradually deepened, and his eyes narrowed into a line.

"I have really good taste." Liu Tangxi suddenly said complacently.

Wei Hanzhou was stunned for a moment. He chose Prince Jian, and Prince Jian succeeded, so shouldn't he be the one with vision? Why did my lady suddenly say that?

Seeing the confusion in Wei Hanzhou's eyes, Liu Tangxi explained, "I chose you. The fact that you succeeded in getting promoted and making money proves that I have good taste, doesn't it?"

Hearing this twisted logic, Wei Hanzhou's lips suddenly curled up, revealing a long-lost smile.

"Why, do you think what I said is wrong?"

"No, you are absolutely right, my lady, you have good taste."

"Of course." Liu Tangxi said with a smile.

The male protagonist in the book, the Third Prince, did not become the emperor, and the female protagonist, Liu Luan, did not become the empress. She was not killed by these two people, and her biggest worry was finally resolved.

And the current emperor and the prince have a good relationship with them.

When he thought that he would no longer have to worry about his life, Liu Tangxi felt more relaxed than ever before.

Looking at her husband who was looking at her lovingly, Liu Tangxi thought that her life would be brand new from now on.

At this moment, a cry was heard.

Liu Tangxi and Wei Hanzhou looked over at the same time.

Liu Tangxi thought, isn’t it new? There is a new life in her life.

Hearing her son crying, Liu Tangxi wanted to go and see him, but she had just given birth and it was not suitable for her to move.

Although both Grandma and Auntie were there, she was still really worried.

Since she couldn't go, she urged Wei Hanzhou to go.

"Go and have a look."

Wei Hanzhou was already full of curiosity about his son, and upon hearing this, he walked over quickly.

The moment he saw his son, Wei Hanzhou’s mind flashed with what Liu Tangxi had just said.

His son is really ugly.

However, when he thought that this ugly son was born from his wife's belly, Wei Hanzhou's heart suddenly softened. Even though he still thought his son was extremely ugly, he was also the ugliest son he liked the most.

That night, after dinner, the Wei family, who had been nervous for many days, all went to bed.

Wei Hanzhou hadn't slept for several days and nights. Seeing that his wife and son were asleep, he also fell asleep on the couch beside them.

However, just as he fell asleep, he heard Liu Tangxi's scream.

“Help…Help…”

Hearing this, Wei Hanzhou immediately came to his senses and ran over in his slippers.

"Help...Wei Hanzhou...Help..."

Wei Hanzhou's heart suddenly tightened and he lay down beside the bed to comfort Liu Tangxi.

"My husband is here, my husband is here, don't worry, it's all over."

After being comforted for a long time, Liu Tangxi finally fell asleep again.

Seeing that Liu Tangxi looked tired, Wei Hanzhou did not go to the couch and went to sleep directly beside the bed where the maids were keeping watch.

Liu Tangxi woke up several times that night, and Wei Hanzhou comforted her every time after she made a sound.

Finally, Wei Hanzhou lay on the edge of the bed, holding Liu Tangxi's hand and looking at her.

On the morning of the second day, all the servants in the house came back, and the servants in the house in the capital also came back from home.

Wei Hanzhou knew the temperament of Emperor You and others, so after Liu Tangxi hid in the manor, Wei Hanzhou asked the servants serving in the manors and houses in the capital to go home, and the manors and houses were empty.

Now they are all back.

Everyone knew that Prince Jin had overthrown Emperor You and was the ultimate victor, and their master had a very good relationship with Prince Jin's mansion and firmly supported Prince Jin in this struggle. Therefore, even though the capital was still in chaos, they, as servants of the victor, could have a smooth journey.

We are all people who have experienced this turmoil, and we all know that this matter is not over yet, and those who need to be settled will definitely be settled.

They all have acquaintances in other mansions, but it may be difficult to get along with some people in some mansions.

Thinking of the fate of those people, everyone felt relieved but also became much more cautious.

On the other side, Marquis Huai En sat in his study room for a whole day and night.

Emperor You was so angry at the Crown Prince that he suffered a stroke, and the Third Prince was captured by Prince Jian.

In the past two years, he has often followed Emperor You's wishes to impeach Prince Jian in the court, and has also helped the third prince deal with Prince Jian.

The only thing to be thankful for was that he had diarrhea these days and was not involved in this commotion.

He originally felt a little regretful, fearing that after the Third Prince succeeded, he would misunderstand that he did not truly support him, and that Emperor You would settle accounts with him later and think that he supported Prince Jian. But he was too weak at the time, not to mention going out, sometimes he did not even have time to clean his room, which was very embarrassing.

When he finally stopped having diarrhea and was no longer so weak, he heard that Prince Jian had successfully ascended to the throne.

Thinking about it this way, she was lucky to have escaped, unlike those who were involved in the incident, who were either hacked to death or imprisoned in the palace.

However, even if he had not been imprisoned in the palace, given how he had dealt with the King over the past few years, he would not have had a good ending.

If the punishment is too light, it would probably mean depriving him of his title; if the punishment is too severe, it is not impossible that his entire clan would be exterminated.

At this moment, Marquis Huai En was extremely frightened and desperate. He felt that he might not be able to save his life.

At this moment, the guard outside the door came to report: "Marquis's Mansion, the second young lady is here."

Huai Enhou's favorite daughter was Liu Luan'an. In the past, he would be very happy when he heard that this daughter was coming.

But today, a surge of anger surged in my heart.

After all, it's still this daughter's fault!

At first, he had never thought about which prince to support. It was this daughter who had urged him to support the third prince since he was a child.

I thought this daughter was smart, but now I see that she is short-sighted. If she hadn't supported the Third Prince, he wouldn't have gotten into this mess. It's all her fault! Now that the Third Prince has been defeated by Prince Jian, she still has the nerve to come see him.

"No, get her out!" Huai Enhou said angrily, sweeping away everything on the table.

However, the next moment, the door of the study was opened from the outside.

"Didn't you hear me? I said no!"

Just as he finished speaking, he saw his second daughter, whom he valued very much, appear in front of him wearing a gray-blue cotton dress.

After looking at each other for a few breaths, Marquis Huai En snorted coldly and said, "Evil creature!"

Liu Yanan, however, seemed not to have heard what Huai Enhou said, nor did he understand what he meant. He walked to a chair nearby and sat down, smiling and saying, "Why is Daddy angry?"

"You still have the nerve to ask?"

Seeing his daughter laughing, Marquis Huai En's face turned even more gloomy.

Liu Ruan said, "My daughter really doesn't understand."

Marquis Huai En was so angry that he gasped for a few times. His anger was completely aroused, and his voice became slightly louder: "You still say you don't know? If you hadn't insisted on supporting the Third Prince, how could our family have ended up like this? In the end, the Third Prince was defeated, and you didn't become his consort. I really don't know if you are really smart or if you have a problem with your brain!"

Although he already knew what kind of person his father was, Liu Li'an still felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the expression on his face and heard what he said.

But, compared with the purpose of my coming here, these are nothing.

"Father, what you said makes me even more confused. I like the Third Prince, but now that he has been defeated, what does it have to do with our family, and what does it have to do with you? It was me who loved the Third Prince since I was a child, and I urged you to support him. And you didn't want to do it, but I insisted, and you loved me, so you agreed. Later, when Prince Jian came to the capital, you impeached Prince Jian in the court, and that was also my daughter's instruction."

Huai Enhou narrowed his eyes slightly and thought carefully.

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense.

Yes, it was his daughter who instigated him to do all this. What does it have to do with him?

but--

"Do you think Prince Jian will believe that I am such a fool? Or do you think the world will believe it?" Marquis Huai En sarcastically.

Is it true that the father's actions were all directed by his daughter? Would anyone believe this?

Liu Yanan said, "Dad, which one do you think is better, pretending to be stupid or getting beheaded?"

Marquis Huai En was slightly startled, looking a little hesitant.

"My daughter was able to compose poetry when she was three years old, and her policy is no weaker than that of boys. She is the most talented woman in the capital, and she is also the staff of the third prince. After my daughter was born, our family gradually stabilized its position in the capital. You said that my daughter was behind all this, and you just loved her dearly. What's wrong with doing it according to my daughter's way?"

Huai Enhou held onto the table and sat back in his chair.

Thinking about it carefully, what my daughter said makes sense.

Actually, what the daughter said was not wrong. Their family could be what it is today thanks to this daughter.

He is indeed much inferior to his daughter.

But this way, everyone will know that I am a fool.

But, as his daughter said, he could have portrayed himself as a good father who loved his daughter dearly.

The only problem here is that everything is blamed on the daughter and the daughter is pushed out.

Although this daughter is his favorite, it is not impossible to push her out if it can save his life.

"Can……"

Marquis Huai En felt a little embarrassed.

Although it was his daughter who instigated him, he had to admit that he really wanted to use his daughter to achieve his own goals, to become the father-in-law of the emperor and to hold great power.

Since Liu Xuanan was able to say those words just now, it means he is well prepared.

Seeing that Marquis Huai En understood, Liu Luan smiled, stood up, and said, "My daughter knows that her crime is extremely serious. She helped the treacherous Third Prince, and her crime is unforgivable. Therefore, from now on, I will go to the temple to practice, and I will never come out again for the rest of my life."

Hearing this, Marquis Huai En finally felt relieved.

His life was saved.

If you are lucky, you can get a few fewer years in prison.

"Father, you may not know this yet, but your eldest son-in-law, Wei Xiuzhuan of the Imperial Academy, is from the same faction as Prince Jin. He has been with Prince Jin during this palace coup. And Prince Jin's beloved daughter, Princess Fuping, has a very good relationship with the eldest sister. During this great change, the two of them have been hiding together."

Huai Enhou widened his eyes in disbelief.

The poor son-in-law whom he had always looked down upon actually had such good taste?

Hasn't he always been supporting the Crown Prince? Why is he suddenly supporting Prince Jin?

No, he never explicitly expressed his support for the prince.

And he remembered that next to his daughter's farm was the residence of Prince Jian.

Thinking of this, a smile gradually appeared on Huai Enhou's face.

Now, not only has my life been saved, but I probably won’t have to go to jail.

Seeing the expression on Marquis Huai En's face, Liu Luan walked out. When he reached the door, he turned to Marquis Huai En and said, "By the way, my daughter gave me the laxative."

Huai Enhou's smile froze on his face.

After being stunned for a long time, Marquis Huai En asked, "Did you know long ago that the Third Prince would not be able to succeed?"

Liu Luanan smiled, did not answer the question, turned around and left.
