Chapter 354 There's a Baby
"Princess, you, what are you doing..." The subordinates who were watching were stunned. No one would have thought that the usually gentle Princess Jingshan would suddenly kill Lord Jin.
"We have been in Daxia for dozens of days. Don't you understand? Daxia is so powerful that even ten Xinluo can't catch up. Even if we kill Emperor Xia, what will happen? After Emperor Xia dies, Consort Shu and the Empress can supervise the country for him, and then send powerful generals to attack Xinluo and avenge him."
"Can Xinluo withstand their revenge?"
Princess Jingshan looked at them coldly.
When she arrived in Daxia, she was shocked by its prosperity and strength.
But Jin Tae-eun thought that if they killed Emperor Xia, they could take advantage of the chaos to start a rebellion.
madness.
"Father is lucky to be able to live in peace in a corner. Why should he listen to Jin Taien's words and take action against Emperor Xia?"
Princess Jingshan's words were so loud that everyone present fell silent.
Daxia was indeed much more powerful than they had imagined. They had thought that Xinluo was already very powerful, but when they arrived in Daxia they discovered that they were nothing.
"Don't live in a dream, thinking that you can get the secret recipe of ammunition by killing Emperor Xia. If you want to stay alive, tell your father when you go back that Lord Jin has offended Emperor Xia and has been sentenced to death. If anyone dares to offend Emperor Xia again, they will send an army of 100,000 to pacify Xinluo." Princess Jingshan glanced at them with a warning in her eyes.
Some people were silent as a cicada, and dared not to refute.
After all, Lord Jin is dead, and the highest-ranking official now is Princess Jingshan.
…
[I didn’t expect that Princess Jingshan is such a smart person. ]
Lu Li received a reminder from the melon-eating system and learned that Mr. Jin from Xinluo was dead. She quickly opened it and found that it was Princess Jingshan who did it.
After she finished reading it from beginning to end, she finally realized why Princess Jingshan did not assassinate her father in public today.
It wasn't that she and Guagua made a mistake, but that the princess had rebelled.
Lu Li originally wanted to tell his father about this, but was too lazy to go out.
She used the gossip system to check and found that her father had already sent secret guards to monitor this group of Xinluo people.
It won't be long before the secret guard reports this to his father, so she won't be in a hurry anymore.
She was tired from opening presents and running around all day, so she had to go to bed.
After all, my father once said that children who don’t sleep will not grow tall.
It was similar to what Lu Li guessed. She had just learned from the gossip system that Princess Jing Jingshan killed Jin Taien, and then the secret guard reported the matter to Lu Yanshi.
"She's quite an interesting person." Lu Yanshi's eyes revealed his admiration for Princess Jingshan.
"Send someone to give them a warning tomorrow. As long as they stay quiet, Daxia will not touch them. If they don't want to live well, Daxia doesn't mind having another city."
Hearing Lu Yanshi's order, the secret guard nodded slightly in response.
Lu Yanshi looked through the memorials submitted by the court officials and his own notebook and found that a lot of money had been spent on road construction and coal mining. If a war was launched to retake Xinluo at this time, it would cost a lot of money again, which was not something he could afford.
After all, it won’t be long before we have to send another group of people to the city of Yaskar, and that will also cost money.
Money, money. Thinking about having to spend money everywhere, Lu Yanshi felt a headache.
Although steam carriages, driving schools and fireworks added a lot of income to the treasury, it was still far from enough.
It seems that we should let Jin Yulu open the winery as soon as possible. It would be good to have an extra source of income.
…
Lu Li had a good dream all night, but unexpectedly she received bad news when she woke up.
"Xiaojiu, you are already three years old. After the New Year, how about going to the Royal Girls' College to study?" Xia Shuyi looked at her daughter with a smile.
"Is it okay not to go to school?" Lu Li looked at her with a tearful face.
"No." Xia Shuyi smiled and shook his head.
"Since you can't say no, then why are you asking me?" Lu Li pouted and turned around angrily, with her back to her mother.
Xia Shuyi was amused by her cute appearance and reached out to hold her in his arms.
"Reading can help you learn to read and understand things. If you can't read, what will you do if someone cheats you?"
She broke down the truth and told it to her daughter.
But Lu Li simply couldn't listen.
She collapsed when she thought about learning all these things.
"No one dares to deceive me even though I can't read." She snorted. Anyway, she has the secrets and she can find out who dares to deceive her.
"How do you know that no one dares to deceive you?" the queen asked knowingly.
"I have..." Lu Li almost revealed the existence of the "melon-eating system".
She paused, touched her nose with a guilty conscience, and said, "I have a father, the emperor, and a mother, and if anyone dares to lie to me, you will definitely not forgive him."
"What if we are no longer here?" Xia Shuyi was helpless.
"There are also my royal brother and sister." Lu Li said confidently.
"In short, I'm not going to school. If you force me, I'll ride Jin Jin to the sky!"
Xia Shuyi was so angry at her that she was speechless.
Lu Xuan, who was standing by, became curious: "Fuck, can I go?"
"Lu Xuan, you are not a girl, you can't go." Xia Shuyi rubbed his eyebrows.
These two children are more worrying than the other.
Lu Xuan is too stupid, but he is interested in everyone. If he is not watched, he will be easily deceived. He must not go to school. If he is led astray by others, it will be troublesome.
Xiaojiu was too smart and hard to please. Getting her to study was more difficult than getting her to kill pigs.
It would be nice if the two children's temperaments could be balanced out.
When Lu Heng returned to the palace, he saw his mother's face full of sorrow. He learned that she was worried because Lu Li didn't want to go to school. He immediately thought of a solution.
Lu Heng took the initiative to find Lu Li.
"Xiaojiu, there are only so many places you can play in the palace. If you go to the academy, you can also wander around the capital after school. Wouldn't that be much more interesting than staying in the palace?"
When Lu Li heard this, his eyes lit up.
"You're right!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed in front of the queen like a gust of wind.
"Mother, I also want to go to the academy to study."
Xia Shuyi was a little confused. Wasn't she reluctant to go in the morning? Why did she agree so quickly after her son came back?
But it was a good thing that her daughter was willing to go to school, so she quickly agreed.
"Okay, let's go after the Chinese New Year."
"No, no, I'll go tomorrow." Lu Li pulled her mother's hand and acted coquettishly.
"Okay, okay, let's go tomorrow." Xia Shuyi agreed.
"Great! I'm going to school too. I'm going to tell my eighth sister that I'm going to the academy with her tomorrow." Lu Li ran away in a hurry again.
"What's going on?" Xia Shuyi looked at his son helplessly.
Lu Heng repeated what he had just said.
Xia Shuyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this: "Only you, as the emperor's elder brother, know how to convince Xiaojiu."
"Hehe, Xiaojiu loves to play, so let's let her play and learn while playing. Anyway, we don't need Xiaojiu to take imperial examinations. She just needs to recognize some words and live happily throughout her life." Lu Heng couldn't stop smiling when he talked about his sister.
Every day after returning from the Imperial Hospital, no matter how tired or exhausted he was, as long as he saw his sister's smile and heard her sweetly call him "Third Brother", all his fatigue would disappear.
Xia Shuyi nodded in agreement.
They don't ask Xiaojiu to achieve anything great, they just hope that Xiaojiu can be safe and happy.
…
The next morning.
All the concubines came to Weiyang Palace to pay their respects to the Empress.
Xia Shuyi decided to let Jiang Shiyue, who was going to teach today, take Lu Li and Lu Xuanyi out of the palace after paying their respects.
Jiang Shile naturally would not refuse.
Just as they were about to leave, Qi Xingrou suddenly vomited uncontrollably.
Xia Shuyi hurriedly summoned the imperial physician.
But before the imperial physician arrived, all the concubines present learned the truth from Lu Li's inner voice.
【Oh my god, there is a baby in Roumei’s belly! 】
