Chapter 169 Can I
Jiang Zhaoyue was stunned when he heard this, and then he laughed.
Pei Jingzhou and others also laughed.
Little Pei Heng didn't know what was going on. He looked at his eldest brother, second brother and others with a confused face. Finally, his eyes fell on his second sister-in-law and asked, "Second sister-in-law, what are you laughing at?"
Jiang Zhaoyue said: "You are so cute when you laugh."
"I..." Pei Heng was very happy to be praised, but he had been the youngest child in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion since he was a child. Everyone would call him the fifth brother, which did not sound majestic at all.
He really wanted to be a brother. Being the brother of Second Sister-in-law's baby would be a very great thing. He continued, "Second Sister-in-law, can you give birth to another one who will call me brother?"
Jiang Zhaoyue understood Pei Heng's thoughts and pretended to hesitate: "This..."
Pei Heng said confidently: "Second sister-in-law is so capable, she can definitely do it."
Jiang Zhaoyue said, "I can give birth to another child, but the second child may not call you brother."
Pei Heng asked doubtfully, "Why?"
Jiang Zhaoyue said confidently, "Because Erwa can cry when he wants to, and he can cry when he doesn't want to. We can't force him, right?"
Pei Heng nodded in agreement, then said, "What if I ask him to call me brother?"
"If he wants to call me that, I have no objection."
"Then I'll let Erwawa call me brother."
"good."
"Well, Erwawa calls me brother, so I am the brother."
"That's right."
Pei Heng was so happy that he turned around and showed off to Pei Siya and Pei Sijing.
Pei Jingzhou looked at Jiang Zhaoyue and whispered, "Why did you lie to him?"
"How did I lie to him?" Jiang Zhaoyue asked back.
Pei Jingzhou said: "You can never call your child brother."
Jiang Zhaoyue opened her mouth and said, "Who said that? What if I marry his uncle?"
Pei Jingzhou's face immediately turned dark.
"Don't be angry, I'm just teasing you." Jiang Zhaoyue quietly hooked Pei Jingzhou's little finger and explained in a low voice: "Brother Heng is still young and doesn't understand the order of generations. He just wants to be a big brother and be powerful. Let's let him be powerful."
Pei Jingzhou said, "He's going to the Imperial College this year. He's grown up and understands his generational status. He knows he can't be Erwa's older brother. Wouldn't that be disappointing?"
"When he truly grows up, he'll realize that what I said today was all well-intentioned agreement. He'll understand that I love, pamper, and like him, and he'll think his childhood was a dreamy and loving one."
"What if he's just disappointed?"
"Then he is not Pei Heng, but Xiao Congbei." Pei Heng is sometimes willful, but his character is kind, generous and filial. Jiang Zhaoyue believes that under good guidance, he will definitely become a handsome and decent young man.
Pei Jingzhou smiled and said, "You are right."
"Second sister-in-law." Pei Heng turned his head and said, "Then you should give birth to the first baby quickly, and then give birth to the second baby."
"Okay, stop standing and sit down." Jiang Zhaoyue said.
Pei Jingxiao and the others sat down.
A few people were chatting, talking about daily trivialities, some happy, some annoying, some funny, and some funny. In short, there was nothing big, so they talked and laughed non-stop.
Jiang Zhaoyue was in a very good mood and ate a lot at noon that day.
After seeing them off, Pei Jingzhou went back to work in court.
Jiang Zhaoyue was rest assured and taking care of her pregnancy.
As soon as the Lantern Festival was over, news of Xiao Congbei's death came from the Ministry of Justice, who said that he had died of a sudden illness.
Jiang Zhaoyue was startled and asked, "Is Xiao Congbei dead?"
Pei Jingzhou nodded.
"Is it really a sudden illness?" Jiang Zhaoyue didn't believe that Xiao Congbei died so suddenly.
Pei Jingzhou was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "The poison given by my father."
Although Jiang Zhaoyue expected that Emperor Hong Qi would severely punish Xiao Congbei, he still felt cruel and shocked when he really poisoned him.
Pei Jingzhou said, "The evidence of Xiao Congbei's collaborating with the enemy, secretly manufacturing weapons, and framing me has been confirmed. Father did this to protect Feng Lanxin, the two children, and the Feng family."
"Did Xiao Congbei take poison?"
"He knew there was nothing he could do and that death would be good for Feng Lanxin, so he took the poison without hesitation."
Jiang Zhaoyue sighed, "Feng Lanxin must be very sad."
Pei Jingzhou was silent.
Jiang Zhaoyue asked again, "Then how will the emperor deal with the Feng family and Feng Lanxin and her son?"
"The Feng family was completely unaware of this, but Father still demoted and punished them. As for Feng Lanxin and her son..." Pei Jingzhou looked at Jiang Zhaoyue and said, "Father sent them to Lingzhou and they will never be allowed to enter the capital again."
"Lingzhou is impoverished and desolate..."
"Feng Lanxin is still Princess Jing. No matter how poor and desolate her life is, she will live better than the average person with her two children."
Jiang Zhaoyue thought for a moment and said, "Alright, let's change the place and the way of life."
Pei Jingzhou nodded.
"Can I see Feng Lanxin off?" No matter what, it was Jiang Zhaoyue who summoned Feng Lanxin into the palace that day and brought Xiao Congbei to justice. She was grateful for Feng Lanxin's righteousness.
Pei Jingzhou looked at Jiang Zhaoyue and thought for a moment: "Okay, I'll arrange it."
Three days later, Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou arrived at the back door of Prince Jing's Mansion.
A simple carriage was parked in front of the back door of Prince Jing's Mansion.
A nanny, two maids and two servants were standing in front of the carriage waiting.
Feng Lanxin came out wearing fine cloth clothes, pulling out the twins, a boy and a girl, who were also wearing fine cloth clothes.
The twins, a boy and a girl, were about three years old. They were still chubby and didn't know what had happened to their father. They asked together, "Mother, where is father? Why hasn't he come yet?"
"Your father is busy with something important. Let's go to Lingzhou first. When he is done, he will come to find us." Feng Lanxin said with a smile.
The twins nodded in unison: "Then we'll wait for Father."
Feng Lanxin handed the twins to the maid. She stood in front of the back door, looking at the extended wall, and her mind flashed back to the four years since she married Xiao Congbei.
No matter what others say about him.
She received warmth, love, and joy from him...but in the end she was unable to stop him from making one mistake after another and committing a serious crime.
Tears rolled down her cheeks. When she reached out to wipe them away, she caught a glimpse of two figures not far away. She looked closely and saw Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou.
She was stunned for a moment, quickly reached out to wipe away her tears, and walked up to the two of them to salute.
"Sister-in-law, don't be so polite." Jiang Zhaoyue quickly helped Feng Lanxin up.
"Thank you, Princess." Feng Lanxin stood up.
Jiang Zhaoyue looked at Feng Lanxin, who had lost a lot of weight, and felt very uncomfortable. She asked in a gentle voice, "Are you okay?"
Feng Lanxin's tears welled up again. She shook her head gently: "I haven't found my other self yet. I don't know how to get along with children and servants."
"Don't worry." Jiang Zhaoyue held Feng Lanxin's hand tightly and said repeatedly, "Don't worry, don't worry, take one step at a time, you can do it."
Feng Lanxin asked with tears in her eyes, "Can I?"
