The storm is coming
Liu Buqi is pregnant!
This was a huge surprise that exceeded everyone's expectations, especially Yue Lingxi, who had almost completely recovered from the shock of hearing the bad news. After Bai Jinjing confirmed the news after taking his pulse, he was as happy as a child!
This was all thanks to Bai Qiangwei. Ever since Liu Buqi returned to Youzhou alone to take charge of the situation, her period had been delayed. She just thought it was a normal reaction to the tossing and turning. This situation had also occurred when she was on long business trips and had a reversed day and night schedule.
After returning to Beijing, although he sometimes lost his appetite and felt upset and tired from time to time, he also thought it was due to the numerous trivial matters and the unprecedented pressure brought by the empty title forced upon Yue Lingxi by the prince and the Ning Wang.
Accompanying Yue Lingxi in Desheng Tower, Liu Buqi's constant panting and inability to eat attracted Bai Qiangwei's attention. After asking her about it indirectly, she became somewhat suspicious that she was pregnant!
Liu Buqi himself did not have this feeling at all, but Bai Qiangwei's continuous hints had aroused Yue Lingxi's concern, so he could only ask the accompanying maid and doctor Bai Jinjing to take his pulse to confirm it.
Unexpectedly, it was actually a pregnancy pulse! Calculating the date, it was the time when Yue Lingxi and I were at Liu Feiyu's house.
The probability of a bullet hitting the soul really made Liu Buqi laugh and cry. Without safety measures, he really couldn't "act recklessly" easily. It was so easy to cause death!
What she didn't expect was that the news of her pregnancy even alarmed Lü Ren in the Hou Mansion, who broke through the blockade and came directly to Desheng Tower! Changsun Wuwo didn't even criticize her, but instead followed her to congratulate her!
Wang Sheng, who had been hiding for a long time, could not wait to use the channel of Desheng Tower to report this great news to Wang Changling in the Dahe battlefield, Gao Yi in the Great Wall battlefield, and Lu Xin in Youzhou City!
It was the way Gongsun Wuhui, who had just gone into Desheng Tower to hide, looked at her, eh!
No! The way he looked at her belly was completely different from before, as if he was ready to draw his sword and intercept anyone who dared to get close to him. Uh! No! It was the person in his belly!
Liu Buqi was really puzzled. It was reasonable that Yue Lingxi, the father, was happy because she was pregnant!
What on earth are these retainers and subordinates worried about? Just like an employee might worry about changes in the company because their boss is seriously ill, but they would never be so excited that they forget everything because their boss's wife is pregnant!
Of course, if you really forget yourself, the boss will have to touch his head and see if there is something wrong!
…
Now Liu Buqi still couldn't understand what the fact that Yue Lingxi had an offspring, or even just proved that she had the ability to produce offspring, meant to the entire Youzhou and Prince Yin forces that depended on the two of them!
That is the foundation for a force to continue for a long time!
In this era, even a cold can be fatal! No matter how wise and powerful your lord is, there is no guarantee that you will live a peaceful and healthy life!
How many great forces have fallen apart due to the sudden death of their lord! Take the late emperor for example, if he had an upright descendant, as long as he was a little more reliable!
Even if Yue Beiqiu is a rare talent, he still has to stay in his territory! Even if Guannei Hou is a powerful vassal, he still has to stay in Guannei! As for Prince Ning, he still has to keep a low profile in Jingzhou, tossing and turning in bed!
And for a lord who leaves behind descendants, even if the descendant is just a child, that can be the centripetal force that continues the power of one side!
That is the greatest guarantee of reward for all those who have sacrificed their lives for this power! Flowers and cow dung can sometimes be just the difference between having an offspring or not!
Yue Lingxi has an heir, who is his wife Liu Buqi's son. For the emerging power of Youzhou, this means God's mercy and a huge cohesive force!
Unable to stay in Desheng Tower any longer, Gongsun Wuhui mixed in with the many old maids and servants brought by Lu Ren, and was taken back to the Marquis' Mansion together with Liu Buqi. If she hadn't strongly objected, Lu Ren would have sent her directly back to Youzhou to nurture her baby!
This surprise was unexpected, but the other surprise was even more unexpected!
Zhan Zhige, who had thwarted Prince Ning's attempt to become famous throughout the world, had been wandering around the East and West Markets. Unexpectedly, he was raided by the Tian Ce Mansion. Not wanting to act rashly and wander around the world, he could only give the names of Yue Lingxi and Liu Buqi.
As a result, he was sent to Desheng Tower by Tiance Mansion to verify his identity with Yue Lingxi. Changsun Wuwo naturally would not make things difficult for this great master who was an enemy of King Ning, and would not offend Yue Lingxi at this time.
So Zhan Zhige was also sent to Hou Mansion. He defeated Qu Shanhe with one move, and was given "Xia Ke Xing" by Liu Buqi, and became famous!
He also promised that as long as it did not go against the conscience of heaven and earth and the way of chivalry, he would respect Liu Buqi's orders three times!
Liu Buqi seized the opportunity and told him directly that he wanted him to stay by Yue Lingxi's side and protect her until she returned to Youzhou safely. He would then fulfill his promise after giving the order three times!
Zhan Zhige, who had received many favors and had nowhere to go temporarily, gladly kept his promise and returned to Yue Lingxi to serve as a guard, which immediately solved Liu Buqi's urgent need!
Ever since Bai Qiangwei kidnapped Yue Lingxi, Liu Buqi has been pondering one thing: when he and his wife were in Youzhou, they experienced open battles with swords and guns.
After arriving in the capital, he discovered that assassinations and assassinations, which were previously considered only legends, could happen around him at any time. Apart from Zhang Xiruo, who was barely considered a first-rate martial arts master, there was actually no other capable master on his side!
Take the incident on Chen Yuanyuan's pleasure boat for example. If Zhan Zhige or Prince Ning intended to kill Yue Lingxi, I'm afraid Zhang Xiruo would have no power to deal with Zhan Zhige and Qu Shanhe.
Although these heroes in the martial arts world would not easily have anything to do with the government, if the situation develops to a critical moment and the enemy uses assassination methods, Yue Lingxi and he would be unable to defend themselves!
Fortunately, Gongsun Wuhui, who came with Bai Qiangwei, solved the shortcomings on her side, but she could not act rashly in the capital.
Once the Tian Ce Mansion discovers something unusual and identifies her as the murderer who assassinated the late crown prince, it will cause unpredictable consequences!
Now the arrival of Zhan Zhige is undoubtedly a timely help, which immediately solves the problem of his side's low apparent military strength!
In the days to come, even if parties intend to carry out assassinations, they must consider the existence of Zhan Zhige, which should be able to deter many people who are ready to act!
…
During this period, while the Tiance Mansion focused its main efforts on searches in the east and west cities, Prince Ning Yue Wuji was busy reorganizing the defenses of the Xuanwu and Zhennan gates.
Although the actions of the Han family of Jiangdong had some impact, he was still prepared and calmly mobilized a lot of troops to concentrate them in the capital, either openly or secretly.
The imperial emperor Yue Hua stayed in the harem and never showed up again. He even adjourned the daily morning court session, completely giving up on expanding his voice in the court after the crown prince who was the regent was seriously injured!
All forces are making final preparations for the upcoming dynasty!
In the Hou Mansion, Liu Buqi, who enjoyed the treatment of a young lady with everything provided for her, could only sigh that a storm was brewing!
