Chapter 112: My son, you are too attached to your mother
The news of the death of Prince Shu and Xiao Xueer shocked Kyoto!
It caused a sensation across the country!
Some people say: The regent is cruel and ruthless. He reduces the power of the feudal lords and then kills people to eliminate the roots!
Some people also said: The King of Shu is the Regent's uncle, a member of the royal family, and yet he didn't escape! The King of Jinxi and the King of Nanhai are in danger!
They have soldiers in their hands!!!
There won’t be a fight, right?
Rumors spread, and people were in panic throughout the New Year.
Yuntang knew that this was all Xiao Jin's plan, so she was not affected at all. She stayed comfortably and lazily at the Regent's Palace during the winter.
No matter how cold the winter, the heating at Locking Spring Terrace makes it as warm as spring. The Heluan Hall Garden is filled with exotic flowers and plants, with small bridges and flowing water, creating a small world of its own.
Yun Tang looked at the storybooks she had collected from all over the country. Every now and then, Yun Rongrong and the little emperor would come to visit her. During the day, Qinglan and the other three kept her company. At night, Xiao Jin would warm her bed...
She has gained weight due to the good life!
Time passes quietly.
In the blink of an eye, winter goes and spring comes, and flowers bloom in March.
Yuntang is about to give birth!
The Prince Regent's Palace had a lot more people, the guards had increased tenfold, the palace doctors, midwives, wet nurses...
The old doctor also came back and lived in the palace. Every day, he and Lian Qiao took Yuntang's pulse to check his health.
Everyone's expression was solemn and serious as they surrounded Yuntang, as if she was some fragile porcelain treasure that couldn't be bumped or have any mistakes!
Yuntang was very calm and composed.
The baby in my belly is really sensible and well-behaved. He doesn't make any noise or trouble. Only when Yuntang talks to him and tells stories from a book will he move his little hands and feet and respond to Yuntang's words.
So cute!
Fairy baby!
Yuntang was really looking forward to the birth of her baby, but when the due date arrived, there was still no movement in her belly.
"Tangtang, he hasn't come out yet. Is he really okay?" Yun Rongrong came to visit her, staring at her belly, worried and sweating.
Yun Tang shrugged, smiling softly and helplessly: "The old doctor, the imperial physician, and the midwife have all checked, and he's healthy. He just doesn't want to come out."
"Baby, you're too clingy to your mother!"
Yuntang lowered her eyelashes, touched her belly, and sighed helplessly in her heart: Is it because he sensed her thoughts that he doesn't want to be born?
"The old doctor said it's best to wait until the melon is ripe and falls off. If it still refuses to come out after three more days of observation, we'll have to use medicine."
Yun Tang didn't want to say more, so he looked up and changed the subject, "Cousin, how is Grandpa and Uncle's business?"
Yun Rongrong was misled by her and answered truthfully, "The prince asked our family to stockpile food and fodder before the New Year. Now we're selling it to the King of Nanhai for five or six times the price, making a killing!"
"Tangtang, I don't understand. Your Majesty, are you not afraid that the King of Nanhai will raise food and fodder and actually start a rebellion?"
Yun Tang blinked, his tone firm and trusting: "Xiao Jin is ruthless, he won't betray us. The Yun family listens to him and does as he says!"
"Okay." Yun Rongrong nodded.
She thought about it and realized that Xiao Jin was really good to the Yun family!
If there is money, let the Yun family make it first!
Not only did Yun Zhiyi get a promotion! Her fiancé Jing He came to Kyoto to prepare for the exam, and unexpectedly received guidance from Chen Shu of the Imperial College and Xie Yuheng, the Prime Minister's legitimate son!
There are also two little nieces, Yun Baopei and Yun Baoying. After the New Year, the little emperor really made them county princesses! They can leave the palace freely and accompany the little emperor to study!
The overwhelming wealth made the Yun family dizzy and their worldviews reshaped!
Grandpa and grandma are now full of praise for their grandson-in-law Xiao Jin!
Yun Rongrong also thinks that her "brother-in-law" is very nice!
It’s true love for Tangtang!
She hesitated, touched her sleeves with her fingers, and couldn't make up her mind.
Yun Tang was sharp-eyed and observant, so he immediately asked her, "Cousin, do you have anything for me?"
"I...I have a letter here..."
Yun Rongrong was extremely conflicted and hesitant. She took the envelope out of her sleeve, wrinkling it with her fists, and muttered, "Marquis Ningguo asked me to give this letter to you..."
"I know he was your fiancé. But he was blind and married Su Zhaoyang. He was not a good person!"
"But he said that this concerns your position and safety, and I..."
"Cousin." Yuntang's eyes were gentle and encouraging, and he stretched out his hand: "Give it to me, it's okay."
Yun Rongrong gritted her teeth and handed her the envelope.
Yuntang took it and found that the envelope had been opened.
Yun Rongrong quickly explained, "I was afraid he might have poisoned it, so I opened it and had the old doctor check it! Don't worry, Tangtang, none of us read the contents!"
Yuntang curled his lips into a smile and lowered his head to open the letter.
After reading line by line...
The smile on Yuntang's lips gradually disappeared, and finally he pursed his lips and frowned, his almond-shaped eyes as cold as a frosted lake.
Yun Rongrong became nervous and asked in a low voice, "Tangtang, what's wrong? What did the letter say?"
Yuntang handed her the letter and said, "Read it yourself."
Yun Rongrong quickly took it. As she looked at it, her eyes widened and she jumped up from her chair in anger: "It's actually true!!!"
"Cousin? You know!"
"Tangtang, don't look at me like that."
Yun Rongrong's voice grew fainter and fainter, feeling guilty. "There are so many rumors out there, and we don't believe them. How could the prince possibly betray you? You're about to give birth again, and we dare not tell you, fearing that you might get angry and hurt yourself."
The letter said that when Gu Mingyan went to court, he heard that the King of Jinxi and the King of Nanhai had sent messengers to propose a marriage!
One marries his granddaughter!
A wife-sister!
As long as Xiao Jin is willing to marry, they will not investigate the cause of Prince Shu's death.
Xiao Jin agreed!
Gu Mingyan was worried that Yuntang's position would be threatened, so he wrote this letter immediately after leaving the court. However, since he couldn't see Yuntang, he had to find another way to find Yun Rongrong.
In the letter, Gu Mingyan asked Yuntang to be extremely careful!
The granddaughter of the King of Jinxi and the sister-in-law of the King of Nanhai, her backing is as powerful as a mountain! Once she enters the Regent's Palace, she will definitely threaten them and their son!
Gu Mingyan also said in the letter that as long as Yuntang needs him! In one word, he will be there at any time!
"Tangtang, what should we do?" Yun Rongrong was anxiously running around.
She didn't believe it at first, but Ningguo Hou said so!
It’s impossible to lie in front of all the civil and military officials in the court!
With the support of two great princes, if they enter the palace, won’t they bully Tangtang and her son in various ways?
Yuntang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and spoke calmly, "Cousin, go back first and pretend you know nothing about what happened. Don't tell anyone else!"
Yun Rongrong looked at her eagerly, "What about you?"
"I'll ask Xiao Jin for clarification! If he dares..."
Yun Tang felt unhappy and gnashed his teeth in anger: "Then he will be left without a wife! I won't even keep my child for him!"
As soon as Xiao Jin returned home, he keenly noticed the strange atmosphere!
Everyone in the palace was cautious.
"Your Highness..." the guard trembled as he delivered the message, "The princess asked you to see her as soon as you return."
Xiao Jin narrowed his eyes, and without saying a word, he stretched out his long legs and walked straight to the Heluan Palace.
As soon as he entered the house.
He saw Yuntang sitting upright with his hands folded in front of his stomach, his round face puffed up, and his almond-shaped eyes staring at him coldly.
Angry!
Xiao Jin thought a lot in an instant. Did he do something wrong?
No, right?
