Chapter 789: Weird Langzhou City
Chapter 789 Weird Langzhou City
Seeing that Chu Nanzhi was holding a scroll in her hand, Tang Weiming took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to her immediately, and smiled embarrassingly: "I forgot, this is the letter that Prince Xie entrusted to the governor. Letters from the Queen."
Chu Nanzhi took the letter and opened it to look at it. Although the word "Little Zhizhi" at the beginning was a bit harsh, it made her feel more and more friendly now.
"Seeing the words is like a face, I am happy to hear that you have a son and a phoenix again. I congratulate you here. I only use Guban Tianduo, the prince of the Dongsang royal family, as a congratulatory gift. It is not a respect. I hope the years will be quiet and good, I hope you will cherish them, and I look forward to eternity."
Few words, not like his stalking style in the past, but moved Chu Nanzhi a little.
"He, is he still in Langzhou?"
After folding the letter, Chu Nanzhi asked suddenly.
Tang Weiming shook his head: "Prince Xie has already led his army out of the border of Langzhou. He asked Lord Inspector Shi to bring a message, hoping that the court can **** His Highness Sixth Highness Bai Yu and the mission back to the court as soon as possible."
"Your Majesty and the ancestors will decide on this matter."
Chu Nanzhi replied calmly.
Now she is not worried that the little boy will continue to detain the Bai Yu Mission.
Although Lin Jinxiao is not the type to take the initiative to show weakness to others, he will not disappoint others' good intentions.
After all, one more ally is better than one more enemy.
"Is Mrs. Ji feeling better now?"
Thinking of Ji Huazhen who was also sick in bed, Chu Nanzhi slowly packed up the letters and files, and asked worriedly.
"Old Madam Ji and Old Madam Fu are deeply affectionate. The old Madam Fu passed away suddenly. How could the old Madam bear this blow? The past few days have not been met, and Lord Inspector called the best doctor in the city to visit him. This morning The slaves sent His Highness and the princesses there, Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Nie tried to persuade them, and Mrs. Ji managed to drink half a bowl of porridge."
Tang Weiming sighed weakly: "Mrs. Ji was very terrified when she learned that the queen had given birth prematurely, and she deliberately told the slaves to let the queen have a good life, and don't worry too much about the matter of the old master."
According to the customs of this era, outsiders usually visit their mothers after the full moon, seven days and eight days, and even the closest people have to wait eight days later.
And pregnant women and mothers are not allowed to enter the mourning hall to express condolences.
Although she is very concerned about Chang Lao and Ji Huazhen in her heart at this time, she still has to respect these subtle customs.
It's just that what Ji Huazhen said made her feel even more guilty.
In the past few days, she was lying on the bed thinking hard. Although she hadn't guessed who killed Chang Lao, she had vaguely realized that Chang Lao's murder was inseparable from the reform of the government system in Langzhou.
If it was really caused by this incident, Chang Lao's death was undoubtedly caused by himself.
I wanted to make the second elder a good name, but I didn't think it would hurt him instead. This made me how to meet Ji Huazhen again in the future.
But thinking of Mr. Nie, Chu Nanzhi had no choice but to suppress the sadness in his heart, and reminded Tang Weiming: "Boss Tang, since the Dongsang people have retreated, the most important thing right now is to thoroughly investigate Mr. Chang's case, but I am worried that there will still be cases of Mr. Chang. Someone is doing bad things to Mr. Nie, so you have to instruct Lord Inspector to send more people to guard the residence of Mr. Nie and Mr. Chang to make sure everything is safe."
"Slave servant will make arrangements now."
After Tang Weiming finished speaking, he left in a hurry.
After reading the documents for half a session, Chu Nanzhi felt very tired, and lay down again slowly.
Presumably due to premature birth, the clothes and forehead that I just changed are already wet, and the smell of sweat stains makes me extremely uncomfortable.
Dragging his tired body, he tossed and turned on the bed. Hearing the movement inside, Abi and Achun walked in immediately, and asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
"Why are you still at the house?"
Chu Nanzhi looked at the two in surprise.
At this time, these two little girls should serve beside the quadruplets.
Abi hurriedly replied: "The fourth princess said that sister Sang Qi was not with the empress, fearing that the empress would be dissatisfied with the maids in the courtyard, she specially ordered the slaves and servants to stay in front of the empress to serve her."
"I see."
A warm current surged in Chu Nanzhi's heart.
This little one is always so sweet.
Since Sang Qi left, she really doesn't like these clumsy girls around her.
Although they all serve with heart, there is always a kind of tacit understanding missing.
If Sang Qi was by my side, I'm afraid I don't need to say much at this time, and I prepared new clothes and wiped my forehead to replace it for myself.
Fortunately, Abi and Achun were quite smart. Seeing the opened door and the half-hidden willow window, she hurried over to close the door and window, and came over to light a candle.
Chu Nanzhi was about to stop her, but Abi said: "Your Majesty, you can't catch a cold during the labor."
After finishing speaking, she took clean clothes and wiped her forehead from the cabinet beside her and gestured: "The old lady told the servants to change their clothes for the empress every two hours."
The weather was already scorching hot, and her body was always sweating. Chu Nanzhi waited to change into clean clothes. Seeing that the two girls were so caring, she obediently changed into close-fitting clothes and wiped her forehead.
After waiting to lie down again, Chu Wenbi's cursing voice suddenly came from outside: "I don't know who has been paid a thousand dollars for doing such a wicked thing that even a cow can't be found within a hundred miles. Didn’t you intend to starve my good grandson and granddaughter.”
Immediately after that was the sound of the baby crying.
Listening to Chu Wenbi's complaints and the cries of the baby babies, Chu Nanzhi couldn't laugh or cry.
A few months ago, I asked someone to buy all the cattle in a radius of 100 miles in Langzhou City and sent them to the Yizhou battlefield. Now I have no milk, so feeding two little ones is really difficult.
This dynasty was in the early days of the founding of the country. Because the favorite concubine was already in labor when the old queen passed away, the old queen deliberately made a will before she died. Grace allowed the fetus to be born.
Afterwards, many female officials entered the court and fought for it several times. When Emperor Chonghua was awarded, this was included in the law. As long as the fetuses of those who were pregnant before the national funeral were identified by the government, they would not be held accountable.
It's just that Langzhou, a thousand-year-old city, has a unique ancient charm. Even though the late emperor ordered to shorten the period of national mourning, the common people still feel that giving birth during mourning is an act of unfilial piety, and they are afraid of unnecessary lawsuits, so now they want to find a baby girl. Motherhood is extremely difficult.
Chu Nanzhi didn't expect that she would give birth prematurely, so before she had time to prepare for the wet nurse, she was grimacing when Chu Wenbi's voice came again from outside the door: "Da Zhi, I have sent someone for my father I went to buy a cow a hundred miles away, you are feeling better now, maybe feed your grandson and granddaughter some milk?"
There are always more solutions than difficulties, Chu Nanzhi nodded towards Abi and Achun: "Go and bring the two little treasures in first, and then let the old lady cook some thick rice soup."
Waiting for Abi and Achun to bring the little baby in, Chu Nanzhi finished feeding the older one, but when it came time to feed the younger one, there was no more milk.
Seeing the little one who was crying in her arms, she sighed sullenly, and shouted out the door: "Father, go discuss with Mr. Tang about posting some notices in the city and spend more money. Presumably there must be some breasts." Mother is willing to come to the door."
After all, these two children will be the lives of princes and princesses in the future. Are all the women in Langzhou City so indifferent to fame and wealth?
