Chapter 826 Xu Yu would not make such a low-level mistake
When they arrived at the villa, the great wizard specifically reminded Sang Zhixia that she must not leave the villa until Xu Yu came to pick her up in person, and must wait here.
At first, Sang Zhixia thought that this was just a casual remark made by the great wizard, but two days later, a large group of people really came.
Sang Zhixia's eyebrows twitched slightly after hearing Ling Chu's words: "You mean, the prince sent someone over to say that the city is safe and ready to take us back?"
"Who is coming?"
Ling Chu said cautiously, "The leader of the team is a close official of the prince. I have carefully investigated and found no signs of disguise. The number of people coming is also in accordance with the rules, but..."
"I didn't see the young master among them."
The city had been in turmoil for several days, and the villa was far away from the royal city, so the news between the two places had long been forced to be cut off.
Sang Zhixia had not received any reply from the city for several days in a row. At this time, she had no way of knowing what the situation was in the city, or what had happened to Xu Yu.
Those who come at this time...
Sang Zhixia pursed her lips suspiciously. Nan Weiwei, who was more impatient, looked delighted. "Since they were sent by the prince, then I guess Brother Xu is busy right now."
"Sister, the fact that the prince sent someone here proves that everything is fine. Should we..."
"There's no rush yet."
Sang Zhixia held down Nan Weiwei, who was about to jump out, and lowered her eyes and asked, "How many people are coming?"
"five hundred."
Ling Chu lowered his head and said, "On the surface, there are 500 guards, but whether there are other people following them secretly is currently unknown."
"But the letter the visitor brought out does have the prince's seal on it. There's no mistaking the seal."
That’s not right either…
Sang Zhixia said in an inaudible voice, "He knows what the situation is like and won't let a complete stranger like me come here."
Even if Xu Yu was temporarily unable to get away, Chen Jing'an, Xu Minghui and others were unable to spare the time.
But Xu Yu would at least send someone she was familiar with.
Xu Yu was so cautious that he even asked a great wizard to come and escort them, and did not arrange anyone randomly. This shows that he knew Sang Zhixia's vigilance.
Xu Yu would not make such a low-level mistake.
Sang Zhixia's silence caused Nan Weiwei to be surprised. Nan Weiwei said in disbelief, "Sister, are you suspicious that there's something wrong with the person who came?"
Sang Zhixia squeezed her trembling hand soothingly and said calmly, "We haven't seen anyone yet, so we can't tell who is human and who is a ghost, so it's hard to make a conclusion."
But it's always better to be cautious.
Sang Zhixia motioned Ling Chu to come closer and spoke a few words quickly in a low voice.
Ling Chu was slightly surprised and nodded quickly: "Yes."
Sang Zhixia took Nan Weiwei's hand and walked straight back, whispering, "Let's go to the back and wait and see."
As he walked around the screen and sat down, the fatigue between Sang Zhixia's eyebrows became more and more obvious.
She's always been like this during this period.
Maybe it's because I worry too much and can't relax for a moment, so there is always a hint of fatigue on my face, and I feel sleepy and irritable, and my emotions are very unstable.
The old lady repeatedly emphasized that she should not fight or use violence against anyone during these days, and specifically ordered Nan Weiwei to follow her at all times to avoid any mistakes.
Sang Zhixia herself didn't think there was anything wrong, but when she saw that her expression was not right, Nan Weiwei was scared to death.
Nan Weiwei lowered her voice and said, "Sister, if you feel uncomfortable anywhere, why don't we ask Yanran to take your pulse?"
"If that doesn't work, how about drinking the tranquilizing soup Yanran prescribed?"
Xu Yanran learned from Master Qi and Master Hu. Her medical skills may not be amazing, but she knows a lot and has treated many patients.
Xu Yanran was worried about Sang Zhixia's condition, so she prescribed medicine for Sang Zhixia on the second day after arriving at the villa, but the old lady stopped her from drinking it.
As the old lady said, all medicines are poisonous to some extent. If you don't feel any obvious discomfort, it's okay not to take these medicines.
Sang Zhixia agreed obediently but didn't eat it, but the people around her looked extremely worried.
Sang Zhixia pressed her forehead and shook her head, saying, "It's okay."
"I'm just a little impatient. Maybe it's because the weather is too hot."
Nan Weiwei opened her mouth as if wanting to say something, but in the end she said nothing.
Lingchu took Diancui to disguise themselves as Sangzhixia, and the people who were stopped outside waited to be called in.
During Sang Zhixia's break from her busy schedule, the old lady looked at the bewildered Xu Yanran with a rather helpless smile: "Neither of your two teachers taught you how to detect pregnancy?"
Xu Yanran was genuinely confused, and said sheepishly, "I've seen it in books, but I've never tried it myself."
The pulse of joy is difficult to distinguish and can easily be confused with the pulse of many symptoms. It is an experience that can only be gained through practice.
But Xu Yanran had seen many kinds of bloody and hideous injuries since she started studying medicine, and had also fought with the devil who was demanding lives, but she had never encountered a real happy pulse.
When Sang Zhixia was pregnant with Nuonuo and Yuanbao, she was already in the late stage of pregnancy when she got home. She could tell from her pulse that it was different from usual.
If it was in the early stages, she really didn't understand.
The old lady couldn't help laughing when she thought about it: "That makes sense."
"I know you're worried about your sister-in-law, but I need to ask your master to feel her pulse before I can make a definitive diagnosis. In the meantime, there's no need to prescribe any extra prescriptions for her. She probably won't need them."
The ladies present were all shrewd people, and they all gasped when they heard this.
Xu Wenxiu's face was blank: "What the old lady means is that my Xia Xia might be..."
"I'm just guessing."
The old lady laughed and said, "Her current restless and uneasy state is very similar to the symptoms of pregnancy when I was young. However, I am not familiar with medicine, so I can't say for sure whether my guess is wrong."
After the old lady had a guess in her mind, she also specifically asked about the painted fan and the kingfisher feathers that served her personally.
However, these two girls are Sang Zhixia's confidants, so no matter who asks them, they will be vague and only a rough guess can be made.
But to be on the safe side, it is better to be cautious.
After all, everyone knows that Xu Yu and Sang Zhixia have a good relationship. They have been inseparable since Nan Yun returned to the royal city. Even if there is good news, it is not too surprising.
Xu Wenxiu clapped her hands in delight. Madam Xie was stunned for a moment before quickly saying, "Then...then call them back!"
"She went out because someone was coming outside. If she bumped into someone, wouldn't that be..."
"Yes, yes, call them back quickly!"
Second Aunt Xu jumped up and was about to go out and grab the person, but Madam Nan quickly pulled her back: "Don't be impatient."
"Didn't someone come up ahead and tell us? It's Diancui who's going out to meet the guests, not Xiaxia."
"Everyone is watching us closely now. If this good news is true, we can't let it leak out. We can't be impatient."
The arrows and spears that swarmed in from outside were all aimed at destroying Xu Yu's lifeline, and it was impossible to defend against them.
If Sang Zhixia was really pregnant, wouldn't that be another bargaining chip in the hands of her enemies?
The person who was originally overwhelmed by joy forced himself to calm down. The old lady said with a smile: "You can't be impatient."
"I think that girl, even though she's already a mother of two, hasn't quite come to her senses yet. There's no need to rush to remind her, as it's not good to make her nervous."
The chaos in the royal city won't last long.
It is actually best to wait until everything is settled before revealing the answer.
Although no accurate conclusion had been reached yet, the old lady would never say anything she was not sure of, and those who were originally worried could not help but fall into joy.
At the same time, Sang Zhixia also heard the words of the visitor through a screen: "Mrs. Xu."
"We are here on the orders of the prince and the commission of the General of the Cavalry to take the old and young back home. Please pack up as soon as possible and return to the city with us."
