After An Zhongtao sat on a chair and drank a cup of tea, he felt better. He asked, "How are you? Are you feeling unwell today?"
“Everything is going well today!”
"When I came back, I saw people moving flowers. Did you smell anything?"
"Yes, sometimes the flowers are too fragrant and I feel that it is not good. I move them away to avoid attracting mosquitoes!"
"Okay, I was thinking, if you like it, I'll buy you some more!"
"No need for that. By the way, General, have you found out who is behind Qingran's kidnapping?" Lian Jinyu has been thinking about this matter all the time. Coupled with what she found in the flowerpot today, she firmly believes that the enemy may not be from outside.
An Zhongtao shook his head: "There is no clue, I guess there is no way to find out!"
Lian Jinyu wanted him to investigate the concubines and was about to say it, but An Zhongtao's eyes showed a spirit. He stood up, put his arm around Lian Jinyu's waist, and whispered in her ear: "I have been thinking about you all day, worried that something might happen to you. Seeing you, I am finally relieved..."
"I've been very careful..." Lian Jinyu said with a wry smile, "But no matter how careful I am, I'm not as careful as Qingran."
She finally said it.
"Tell me, what's going on?" An Zhongtao asked puzzledly.
"Today I found musk in a pot of flowers..."
"What?" An Zhongtao's eyebrows stood up when he heard this, "Who did it?"
"I asked Madam Hong about the flower. We already had it. As for when it was buried and who buried it, how can we find out? There are always people coming to my room. Not only are there people from the mansion, but also many people from the last banquet. Speaking of which, there are also my uncle's family. How can we find out clearly?"
"The guest who came here would never put this thing there, because you were not pregnant at that time. As for the other people..." An Zhongtao frowned, "Could it be Lian Jinrong?"
"I can't really say who it was!" Lian Jinyu said, "During this period, many people sent things to my house, and I don't remember them all, but she never sent flowers..."
As she spoke, she also told An Zhongtao that the two pots of flowers had just mixed into poisonous gas.
Anyway, it has been said, no matter what method he has or who he can find out, it is better to investigate together.
An Zhongtao heard this and said, "Are you still trying to keep it a secret for them? You came back and told me that flowers and plants attract mosquitoes!"
"I don't want you to worry. How could this family be in such a mess? I guess it's my fault. I've attracted jealousy!"
"It seems like this family needs to be tidied up! But you must be extra careful. I've found that Qingran is not only calm, but also has some ideas. You should let her come here more often!"
"Yes!" Lian Jinyu said while stroking her belly, a worried look on her face. This child hasn't even been born yet, but she has already aroused so much jealousy and hatred. Dao couldn't help but worry whether the child in her belly is strong enough.
An Zhongtao was very annoyed about what happened. There were always troubles in the general's mansion, and he blamed Lian Jinrong.
Whenever he thought of her, he felt really conflicted.
She was absolutely a stunner, especially in bed, which was something he could never forget. Moreover, she had raised a pair of children for him, which meant she had made some contributions and worked hard. Otherwise, he would have divorced her and sent her back to the Lian Mansion long ago!
The Lian Mansion might not necessarily take her in.
Therefore, he paid attention to everything.
But it was one thing for those concubines to be jealous of Lian Jinyu, but they were sincere to him, which could be seen from their eyes, which made him hesitate again, and he could not find out at all. Only then did he realize that Lian Jinyu's decision was correct.
So let it be.
I just became more concerned about Lian Jinyu.
It was a pity that she was pregnant, which made him endure his desire all the time and it was very difficult.
This time, An Qingran paid close attention to everything in her mother's room. She even checked the meals she ate first. Fortunately, a few days later, her mother came to Beiyuan to have meals with everyone.
The old lady had originally told her not to come, but since she had come, she did not force her to go back.
Anyway, what she did was just for show. If she did enough, she would have something to say if something went wrong.
That day, Lian Jinyu felt a little unwell, so An Zhongtao invited the imperial physician to come. After the examination, it was found that there was nothing wrong. Both the child and the adult were healthy, and it was just a normal reaction.
When she felt unwell, everyone in the yard reacted. Not only did the old lady send her supplements, but the concubines also sent her things. There were so many people in the room, and An Qingran was just helping to take care of them. Lian Jinyu was lying on the bed, looking at these people, with no expression of joy or anger on her face, but very calm.
Although she knew that any one of them could be the one who secretly attacked her, what could she do!
Finally, Lian Jinrong came, holding An Mingxuan's hand. An Mingxuan was very young and looked good, but his behavior was a little timid, which was probably the result of being suppressed by his sister for a long time.
Lian Jinrong came forward and asked An Mingxuan to pay his respects to his mother. An Mingxuan came forward, knelt down respectfully, kowtowed, and then said, "Mother, I wish you all the best!"
Although Lian Jinyu had some opinions about Lian Jinrong and An Yanran, she still had no problem with An Mingxuan, so she said, "Get up quickly, why are you kowtowing?"
She pulled An Mingxuan up and made him sit on the edge of the bed. She held his little hand and said, "Have you been studying recently? I don't even have time to take care of you!"
"Mother, I read some and if there were any parts I didn't understand, the teacher would explain them to me!" An Mingxuan answered respectfully.
"That's good. If you still don't understand, come and ask your father or your sister. They can explain it to you. As for me, your mother, I can only recognize a few words and understand some of the principles, but when it comes to words from the book, I can't make sense!" Lian Jinyu said modestly.
An Mingxuan nodded.
Lian Jinrong said from behind: "If elder sister can't make sense, then I won't even be able to read. But recently, my sister's health has not been good, and I haven't taken care of Mingxuan much. It has always been the teaching nanny who taught him. Fortunately, he is very quiet and doesn't cause trouble. He rarely causes trouble for others. This is a good thing!"
"Well, when he grows up a little, let him learn more about riding and archery from his father. It's okay for a man in the general's mansion to be good at literature, but if he is not good at martial arts, his father will probably be unhappy!" Lian Jinyu said.
An Qingran felt that her mother was right. Her father had always preferred martial arts to literature, so she and An Yanran learned kung fu.
The fact that my mother said this clearly showed that she did not consider Mingxuan an outsider.
An Mingxuan suddenly asked, "Mom, do you have a little brother?"
He raised his head and looked at Lian Jinyu with bright eyes.
