Chapter 127 Changes
Xie Shuyan soon became pregnant and became the first mother among them. Her slightly bulging belly made the other married women envious. Liu Xiyun seemed much more stable than before she got married. She spoke. We also talked about family feuds, minor conflicts between sisters-in-law, and minor conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Although it was not a big deal, it was inevitable that the people listening would be a little angry.
But most of them were happy. Their husbands were all men of good character and respected and loved them very much. Not long after, Ning Zhiyao became pregnant.
Through her relationship with them, Jiang Ruohua invisibly pushed several families and their husbands back to King Yun, and gradually seemed to be twisted into a hemp rope to help King Yun.
After Xie Shuyan became pregnant, she no longer had as much experience as before doing things she was passionate about. Jiang Ruohua found another authentic painting of Master Cheng Qiu for her on her birthday, but only after giving it to her did she realize that others Most of the gifts are things that children need.
It wasn't until he saw the joy in Xie Shuyan's eyes that Jiang Ruohua breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he hadn't prepared the wrong thing.
After tea and dinner, Liu Xiyun joked: "You and Her Highness the Princess are both old now, don't you plan to have a son-in-law?"
"Mingdai's marriage must go through the careful selection of the Emperor and Queen. I don't think there's any rush." Jiang Ruohua smiled, "As for me... I'm not in a hurry either."
She is not looking forward to this marriage too much now, not to mention that her father came back from the court and brought back the emperor's wishes.
The Jiang family is also unique among military generals, and she is the princess of the Qi Dynasty. How can the Jiang family be allowed to choose her husband?
The emperor was afraid that the Jiang family would become more powerful, but he couldn't just prevaricate anyone, so he said in a subtle way that he would personally choose a good marriage for her in the future.
As for whom the marriage would be given to, she didn't know, and she didn't want to know.
After the prevarication was over, Jiang Ruohua couldn't help but start thinking about it. After all, people around her mentioned it more than once, and some people advised her to put down her career and leave it to her servants. Hire people to run the shop outside. , asking her to calm down and go to various banquets more so that she can find someone worthy of entrusting her to her life.
She didn't think much about it. As a princess, she didn't have to have a husband like ordinary women. After all, she could do a lot of things in her own name. Unlike other people, the person she married was a member of her husband's family, and everything was regulated. You have to listen to your husband’s family.
The more she was told, the more resistant she became.
Especially after talking to her father a year ago, she had no expectations at all for that strange husband.
If it really doesn't work, just find someone who can handle it and recruit a county horse.
Once and for all, someone with no identity or background, who couldn't turn the palm of her hand, could still satisfy the emperor.
But it’s best not to get to this point if possible.
As time passed, someone seemed to have noticed something. There were many mistakes in the business, and someone was deliberately targeting her and the Jiang family.
Although he could always solve the problem with ease, it took almost all of Jiang Ruohua's energy to deal with it.
The emperor seemed to be getting older and more suspicious of the Jiang family. In other words, he was now suspicious of everyone around him, including those with power.
Because of this, his father, who was supposed to be sent to guard the border again, was once again given an excuse to stay in the capital. In the past few months, several outstanding princes were dismissed by the emperor.
The prince was dismissed, and the party members behind him were inevitably implicated. The situation in the court was turbulent. In the past, some people asked for a prince, but now no one dares to ask for it. After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that as the emperor gets older, he is not only Suspicion increased, and he became even more paranoid.
Anyone who mentions it may become the first bird and be treated as suspicious by the emperor.
Each family began to keep silent, not daring to act rashly. After several princes who wanted to compete for the throne were demoted to commoners, many princes stopped thinking for a moment. After all, they did not have much power. If this situation happened, No matter how naive you are, you are really dead.
Luo Yu, who had handed over all his power, felt relaxed now. I don’t know what he had told the Yi Fei mother clan in private some time ago, and actually persuaded the Yi Fei mother clan to hand over all their power. Now, under the guise of By some chance, he became a relatively comfortable existence in the capital.
On a winter day, the capital city seemed lifeless. It was the beginning of spring again, but the atmosphere did not improve at all. Instead, the emperor's suspicion became more and more serious day by day. Today, a relatively favored young concubine did something a little out of the ordinary. The matter was not a serious matter at first, it was just a joke, but it was punished on the spot. Yesterday, a certain courtier, and when he was in a bad mood before, executed someone who had passed the palace.
More and more like a tyrant.
For this reason, Jiang Ruohua had to temporarily stop his business, and Jiang Shizi could only silently do the errands he was doing.
In fact, the border is not stable now. My grandfather's family who came back from there quietly handed me the news.
The one who was sent now had no family background, and in fact he had no ability. Not only was he incompetent externally, but his internal military management was also a mess. Many people were dissatisfied with him.
One can imagine what the situation is.
How could Prince Jiang not be worried? In his life, he often stayed at the border for several years. The border town was like his second home. He got along with the people there for several years. The army protected the people, and the people often brought things to the army to express condolences. The army and the people were like relatives. Normally, at this moment when the people were suffering, he couldn't ask for an order to go to war, and he was already feeling angry and uncomfortable!
I don't know what the emperor's mistake was. When Jiang Ruohua went out, she felt someone was staring at her. If she looked carefully, she was definitely the emperor's person.
But now her father doesn’t have the Tiger Talisman to mobilize the border troops!
Even if someone sneaks away to the border, it will be of no use. Without the Tiger Talisman, who would dare to launch an army? Furthermore, if it was known that the person ran over in defiance of the order, no one would dare to follow and charge into the battle.
Headache.
For this reason, Jiang Ruohua took Wu Xingxing away early, so that Hu Xingxing would not go to Xu Weiqing's place every day and expose such a number one criminal.
But fortunately, people mainly stared at her father, and Jiang Ruohua could move quite freely. But day after day passed like this, and suddenly one day in the restaurant, Wu Xingxing was no longer seen.
"She didn't come out today?"
"At first, she said she was not energetic. We prepared some food for Miss Hu, but she didn't want it. I specially asked my wife to go and have a look, but Miss Hu refused to open the door... Boss, this..."
"Tell someone to break down the door."
Jiang Ruohua only felt that something was wrong. After breaking open the door with a few waiters, she saw Wu Xingxing lying straight on the ground. She hurriedly took a few steps forward. There was blood at the corner of Wu Xingxing's mouth. She tried to breathe but it was still weak. , hurriedly opened her clothes to check, and suddenly found that her abdomen was bruised, it was obvious that she had been beaten!
