Chapter 953: Promoting Progress



Lianyi was out of confinement after the baby was born. The third-day bath and full-month banquets for her two children had been held, and she began to raise the children. She had a wet nurse and a bunch of maids and old women to serve them, and all she had to do was talk.

Besides, Tornado has become the bodyguard of the two children. He no longer sticks to Lianyi and stays with the children all day long.

Lian Yi also said curiously:

"Xuanfeng, I didn't realize you liked children."

"I find it very interesting. I didn't expect humans to be so vulnerable when they are first born."

"When I first picked you up, you were just a little kitten, struggling pitifully in the water. I was so worried that I couldn't feed you, and I took care of you a lot."

Before Lianyi could finish expressing his contribution, Xuanfeng shook his tail and ran away.

"Why are you running so fast?"

At this time, Duoduo sent a message to Lianyi:

"Master, someone in the backyard attacked Concubine Gao and added something to her food, but her maid didn't notice."

"Give her a hand."

"Get rid of the child?"

Duoduo shook the flower plate and asked.

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Don't do such a thing that kills lives and harms your virtue. Filter out the added ingredients so that the baby in Aunt Gao's belly can be born safely."

Ripple transmitted the message.

"receive!"

Duoduo twisted her way along the flower path and went out to do her business. Mainly because it was winter now and the plants had withered, there were fewer ways to get information, so there were some things that Duoduo had to do personally.

Until the birth of Aunt Gao's child, Duoduo, under Lianyi's instructions, had helped the other party avoid five attacks, of which she herself had also escaped three times.

In the summer of the following year, news of a childbirth finally came from Aunt Gao's courtyard. This time, there was no need for Mrs. Lin to show up, after all, it was a concubine giving birth. As the legal wife, Lianyi brought a large group of people to Aunt Gao's courtyard.

Aunt Gao had found the midwife in advance because she was afraid that Lianyi, the legal wife, would do something secretly. Lianyi was happy to have nothing to do and didn't want to take on this thankless job.

So she only brought the court doctor with her in case of emergency, and then sat in the yard waiting, with tea and snacks prepared by Meizhi beside her, listening to the howling sounds in the delivery room, which felt like a pig being slaughtered.

Lianyi was also helpless. If she screamed like this now, would she still have the strength to give birth to a baby later?

Seeing people coming and going in Aunt Gao's delivery room, carrying out basins of blood, Lianyi knew that Aunt Gao was in danger this time.

Sure enough, two hours passed and Lianyi had drunk two pots of tea, but Aunt Gao still hadn't given birth to the baby. Her cries became weaker and it seemed like she would die at any time.

The midwife ran out with blood on her hands and said to Lianyi with a horrified look on her face:

"Madam, the child cannot be born."

"How could this happen? Is the fetus in an abnormal position? Didn't you say everything was normal before?"

Ripple frowned.

"The fetal position is correct, but the baby is too big, so it can't be delivered."

"Doctor, do you have any solution?"

Lianyi turned and asked the court doctor standing nearby.

"There is nothing I can do."

The court doctor shook his head and said that he was not good at gynecology.

"Young Madam, there is another way, but it may not be possible for the master to be saved."

The midwife gritted her teeth and said.

She knew very well that if two lives were lost in a place like the Shangshu Mansion, she would not end up well, so she could only take a gamble.

"What is it?"

Ripple asked, raising an eyebrow.

"The mother's belly is cut open to take the baby out, but the adults..."

After thinking about it, Lianyi did not make a decision immediately, but asked Nanny Zhen to report to Madam Lin. After all, she was the mistress of the Shangshu Mansion. She also arranged for Fu'an to find Lin Yaozu who had gone out for the banquet. He had gone out early in the morning today.

Mrs. Lin directly sent someone to pass on the message, saying that she would protect the child, after all, her son had no shortage of women in his backyard.

Lin Yaozu made the same decision after he rushed back, as he valued his offspring more.

In this way, Aunt Gao finally left a son for Lin Yaozu, but she closed her eyes forever.

Lin Yaozu held his son in his arms, very happy that he had another son. Then he said to Lianyi carefully:

"Madam, Aunt Gao is gone, so I think you should keep this child by your side, so that he can keep An'an and Ningning company."

"I see. Aunt Gao is also unlucky. I originally thought that she would be promoted to a concubine after she gave birth to a son, but I didn't expect that the son was born but she died."

Lianyi shook her head, then asked Meizhi to take the child over, and called Gao Yiniang's personal maid to question her.

"Yunlan, did Aunt Gao eat a lot and not move around much when she was about to give birth?"

"To answer Madam, Aunt Gao is worried that the baby in her belly will not grow well, so she eats more than usual. Her belly is bigger than that of an ordinary pregnant woman, so she is too lazy to move around."

Yunlan said with a pale face.

She only now realized that having a big baby was not a good thing, as the baby could not be born after the amniotic fluid broke.

The personal servant beside Lin Yaozu stared at the child in Meizhi's arms, and he felt like he was being pawed by a cat.

Lianyi glanced at the other person, who immediately lowered his head, but his wandering eyes betrayed his mood.

The Shangshu Mansion was quite kind. They gave Aunt Gao a grand funeral and sent money to her family.

Mrs. Lin also expressed her approval of Lianyi's generosity in raising the child with her. This is the demeanor of a legal wife.

If Lian Yi knew what the other person was thinking, she would definitely spit in her face. She just wanted to watch the fun and see if Madam Lin would still be so happy when the child grew up.

The mission had been basically completed at this point. She had already received the news when the Marquis' Mansion sent her original body's sister to the farm.

But all this had nothing to do with her, because the person who made the decision was Marquis Anding, and it was the marquis's wife who sent her there. If Xue Lianyi wanted to hate anyone, it would be her own parents, and she was just a byproduct. The better she lived, the crazier the other party would become.

When the two children were three years old, the Dahuan Dynasty was about to go to war. The Chile people on the grassland were suffering from severe drought and had to start a war to survive. They wanted to seize the rich resources of the Dahuan Dynasty, whether it was food, land or population. At one time, the border was in a state of emergency, and urgent military information was sent all the way to the imperial city over an area of 800 miles.

At this time, the eldest prince was already the crown prince. This border war was a good opportunity for him to make achievements and accumulate capital for his ascension to the throne. Therefore, when the crown prince went to court that day, he clearly expressed his wishes to his father and volunteered to be the commander-in-chief to fight back the Chile people.

After hearing the news, Lianyi thought for a moment and said to Xuanfeng:

"Xuanfeng, go and deliver a message to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for me. I want to see him."

"Master, why do you want to see him?"

"I want to be the master of your house. Those who are in the way must be removed. For the sake of my children, he must make his final contribution."

My dears, here comes the fifth update! See you tomorrow~~
