Murong Jin looked at her father's silly expression and tilted her head, "Guess."
Murong Zhi understood perfectly well; this girl had been dead for almost four months. Now her belly looked like she was six or seven months pregnant…
"Did she fake her death and leave because she was pregnant?"
Murong Jin poured him a cup of tea, and Murong Zhi took a big gulp. "Is that right?"
That's one reason.
"Whose child is this? Don't tell me it's that dog emperor Di Junlan's."
"Yes, it's definitely his."
Murong Zhi clutched his chest. No wonder, no wonder, how could such a capable girl die because of a small rebellion?
This is also why he has so many thoughts every night, because his daughter is so capable. How could someone who can fight her way out of the battlefield possibly die because of a little palace intrigue?
"Did Emperor Junlan discover that you are a woman?"
If the fact that the regent is a woman were to be revealed, in addition to those who support her, others would naturally be criticized.
“No, he only found out I was a woman after I died. So, the male regent is dead. Father, your son is gone. I am your daughter now.”
Murong Zhi's eyes welled up with tears, and he immediately wanted to hug his little girl, but looking at her pregnant belly, he stood there helplessly.
I'm sorry to have worried you.
Murong Zhi sighed, "This is for the best. If I had known from the beginning, I might have revealed a flaw."
Murong Jin nodded, "That's what I thought too, that's why I didn't tell you."
Murong Zhi: "..."
"You've grown gray hair."
Murong Zhi snorted, "Don't you even know who it was because of that?"
Murong Jin smiled gently, "Then I'll trouble the child's maternal grandfather to properly teach your grandson or granddaughter from now on."
Murong Zhi's eyes lit up. "It's a promise. This child will take your mother's surname, not Jun's."
Murong Jin looked at him and said, "Of course."
Then Murong Zhi said, "What if Di Junlan finds you in the future and tries to take the child from you?"
"No, we have to hide all traces."
Murong Jin smiled to herself, knowing that her days wouldn't be so boring anymore, since she had such a lively and interesting father.
"By the way, what did the doctor say? Although I know he studied medicine, they say that a doctor cannot heal himself. What about your junior brother? He's quite skilled. Call him over to take a look at your body."
Murong Jin: "Yes, he's already here, a few days earlier than you."
Murong Zhi snorted, "Everyone knows you're alright, but what about me?"
"So, shouldn't we have someone constantly talking about going to Jiangnan?"
Murong Zhi then remembered the matter of sending Yi Liu and the others away, "This subordinate would like to go to Jiangnan to take a look."
There was also Yi Yi, who said, "I've never been to Jiangnan before, and I'd like to go and broaden my horizons."
That silly boy, Yi Er, also said, "I plan to take my wife to Jiangnan for a visit."
The old butler said, "Let's go to Jiangnan. After all, the young master has been saying he wants to visit Jiangnan before..."
Murong Zhi: "..."
"By the way, Father, now that you're here, you can be the officiant when Yi Er brings the bride back."
Murong Zhi nodded in confusion, "To pick up the bride?"
"Yes, it should be about half a month away. That will be the day Yi Er gets married."
Murong Zhi looked shocked. "He said he brought his wife here, is that true?"
Murong Jin nodded seriously, "Yes."
Murong Zhi: "..."
...
"Your Highness."
"Your Highness."
Looking at the rows of guards, Murong Zhi fell silent.
She took his money, but she never expected that she would end up bringing it all to her daughter's place without his knowledge.
OK.
Lan Ziyao, holding the medicine in his hands, exclaimed, "Sister!!! Look!" He had barely arrived when he saw the Prince of Zhenbei. "I'll go!"
Murong Zhi looked at him and said, "It's been a long time."
"Uncle, it's been a long time."
Murong Zhi: "What is this?"
"Medicine to prevent miscarriage."
Murong Zhi immediately moved aside, pointing to Murong Jin behind him, "Give her some."
Lan Ziyao's eyes lit up. "Okay!"
Murong Jin took two steps back. "No, I can't drink this medicine."
"Why?"
Murong Jin looked at the two men and said, "I am in good health now. Taking too many supplements would not be good for the fetus."
"is that so?"
Murong Jin: "Mm."
Lan Ziyao looked at the medicine in his hand and said, "Alright then."
Before long, several midwives appeared in the manor. Murong Jin listened to their conversations, which were all about how to deliver babies.
"By the way, Madam, you should eat more so that you will have the strength to give birth to the child."
"Yes, in this world, having a baby is like going through the gates of hell. If we survive, we win; if we don't, we're off to meet the King of Hell."
Murong Jin: "..."
The midwife next to her pulled the one who had just said the above words aside, "But madam, don't worry, you have a good constitution, there won't be any problems."
"We can just relax and enjoy our food and drinks."
Murong Jin hummed in agreement. She wasn't afraid of having children.
When the child was in July or August, Murong Jin started to feel unwell. "Recently, I have had some difficulty turning over, and my legs are prone to cramps."
Jinjiu: "Let me rub it for you. It's obvious that you're lacking something in your body."
Murong Jin hummed in agreement, "Make more bone broth in the future."
"OK."
Murong Jin got to drink the goat milk and cow milk, but although they had been filtered and processed, there was still a slight fishy smell...
"Senior sister, this is the latest book. Would you like me to read it to you?"
“My mother used to say that my father often read medical books when my mother was pregnant, which is why I am now studying medicine.”
Murong Jin looked at the medical book in his hand, "No need, I've been reading books since the children were three months old, and I often read them aloud."
What book?
Lan Ziyao took the book from her desk and saw the Four Books and Five Classics...
"You're making them learn this? Are you going to have them take the imperial examinations later?"
Murong Jin: "Not really. It's just like telling them a story, changing the content a bit, and teaching them life philosophy, values, and character."
Lan Ziyao: "..." You're amazing! What do such young children know? They're not even born yet. They can't even understand such profound things, let alone learn them...
"Besides these?"
"Some storybooks, they're all stories that are suitable for children to listen to."
Lan Ziyao flipped through the books on the table, finally settling on the titles: "Betrayal in the Name of Friendship" and "A Collection of Killing Essays."
"The Fox Spirit" and "A Soldier's Autobiography"
"No, what are all these? Are you sure this is for a child? Sister, even adults find it gory, this..."
Murong Jin said "Oh," and added, "I just enjoy watching; they listen along."
Lan Ziyao: "..."
