Chapter 672 Whose seed?

When Baochai returned to the palace, night had enveloped the entire capital.

But she did not rest immediately. Instead, she summoned several female officials from the palace to ask whether the things she had ordered today were completed.

If it were a normal day, she wouldn't be so tired. It's just that the things arranged today are different.

When it was confirmed that the ceremonial utensils for mourning were all ready, Baochai breathed a sigh of relief, and then ordered several female officials to go down and rest.

"Mom, it's time to rest!" Ying'er stepped forward to remind her.

After a brief wash, Baochai changed her clothes and lay down on the bed. Tonight it was Wenxing's turn to sleep with her, while Ying'er acted as the "steward" of the girl on duty.

However, less than half an hour after Baochai fell asleep, a group of people came outside the palace to report his funeral.

A few minutes later, the news reached Tongxin Hall, and then Ying'er came to Baochai's couch.

"Empress...Empress..."

At this moment, Ying'er was no longer so calm, and shouted anxiously.

As Baochai woke up, he sat up with his black hair scattered, and then heard her ask: "What's the matter?" ”

Baochai has been mentally prepared for this matter, and the entire Prince Xiang’s Mansion has also been prepared.

"Change my clothes!" Baochai looked solemn.

Soon, several maids entered the room and began to change Baochai's clothes. Others brought the outermost mourning clothes.

Standing there and letting the maids play around, Baochai continued: "As soon as I told you, the palace immediately mourned, and all the guards, chamberlains, and maids wore mourning hats!"

"Yes! ”

Before Baochai left the mansion, white silk was hung outside the gate of Prince Xiang’s Mansion, and all the large and small mansions in the capital began to mourn after receiving the news.

About an hour later, the two squares outside Fengtian Hall and Fengtian Gate were almost full of people kneeling.

The imperial clan, envoys, civil servants, and military generals all came to pay their respects one after another. The busiest people at the scene were the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the censors responsible for maintaining order.

The royal female family members and young clan members were all arranged to Ningshou Palace to guard the mausoleum in front of the Supreme Emperor Zi Palace.

After the death of the Supreme Emperor, the entire capital was deserted, and the Jia family in Rongguo Mansion was no exception.

At this moment, in the Hall of Rongxi, the Jia family set up a shrine for the Supreme Emperor and called their family members to come and worship.

Yingchun is no exception, but she is in a dilemma at this moment.

On the night in May, when she secretly tasted the forbidden fruit with Zhu Jinghong, she thought that it would be over and everything would be fine.

But who would have thought that just once, she would actually be pregnant with a child.

First I stopped menstruating. I thought it would come in one month, but I never thought it would come in the second month.

Fortunately, Yingchun was also smart and knew that such things should not be made public, so only Si Qi knew about it.

They are masters and servants, sharing weal and woe, and they only play chess.Can help her hide it.

But Siqi also knew that as the months passed, it would be impossible to hide this matter.

Fortunately, Yingchun was thin, her pregnancy was not obvious, and her clothes were loose, so she was not discovered.

The most important thing is that she has never had morning sickness since she was pregnant. She looks like an ordinary person, which is why she has successfully hidden it until now.

But today, we have to hold a funeral for the Supreme Emperor at home, which puts Yingchun in trouble.

Kowtowing and kneeling are indispensable for funerals, but now that she has a big belly, it is really inconvenient for her to do these actions.

Si Qi knew Yingchun's difficulties, but who would dare to hide from such a thing, so she could only persuade Yingchun to go first, kneel for a while and then try to leave.

"Girl, why don't you tell Princess Xiang about this matter and let her try to solve it for you!"

"I will definitely not be able to hide it in the end. It's not a good idea to keep this up." "This is Si Qi's third time to persuade Yingchun, because she is also very anxious about this matter. After all, their master and servant are both prosperous and destructive.

But Yingchun still shook his head and said: "If this is known to others, I won't be able to live if it spreads!"

"Information"

There was no choice but to go to the Rongxi Hall in the Spring Festival. At this moment, all the female relatives of the Jia family had arrived.

"Why are you here so late?"

The person who was questioning was Mrs.

Mrs. It's getting more and more unpleasant.

"Mrs., I was feeling unwell just now, so I was delayed!" Yingchun replied.

"Not feeling well? I see you have gained some weight recently, why are you always feeling unwell!" Mrs. Xing became increasingly dissatisfied.

Being questioned like this, Yingchun’s habit of being a doormat came back again, and I didn’t know how to reply for a while.

"Second sister, don't make my wife angry, hurry up and kneel down!"

Fortunately, Tanchun appeared in time and pulled Yingchun aside, and then she asked Xingchun The lady bowed.

Seeing Tanchun, Mrs. Xing's face looked better, so she did not continue to attack.

"Second sister, what's wrong with you recently? Why do you always make mistakes!"

Tan Chun also noticed something was wrong with Yingchun, but she couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

Kneeling on the futon, straightening the hem of her skirt and adjusting her posture to make herself feel better, Yingchun replied: "It's okay, I just feel a little stuffy!"

"It's boring. Are you worried?" Tan Chun asked in a low voice.

"No...no!"

"You're still hiding it from me. Do you think I don't know?" Tan Chun said with a teasing look on his face.

These words shocked Yingchun, but she kept her face calm and replied: "You...what do you know! "

"It has something to do with His Highness King Xiang! "

As soon as he heard this, Yingchun couldn't hold it any longer, and his face suddenly changed color.

"Don't talk nonsense! "

The change in Yingchun's expression convinced Tanchun to confirm her guess, so her voice became lower and lower, and she said: "If King Xiang is leaving, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back within this year, so you have to wait! "

"It would be a pity if you suffocate yourself to death because of unrequited love! "

Hearing this, Yingchun became less nervous. She guessed that Tanchun might not know the truth.

"You... don't talk nonsense! "Yingchun only said this sentence.

"You two, what are you muttering about? This is to mourn for the Supreme Emperor, please be calm! ”

Wang Xifeng’s voice silenced Tanchun and the two of them immediately, and then they knelt down and stopped talking.

Soon, Jia Mu also rushed over, Of course she had to kneel with everyone, but she was supported by her mother-in-law on both sides, so she was not so tired.

Moreover, after only half an hour, Jia Mu left due to physical discomfort. Juniors don't get this kind of treatment.

The servants of the Jia family were kneeling outside, all of them kneeling with expressionless faces. All they were thinking about was what to eat for lunch and whether there would be a midnight snack in the house.

Only Siqi looked anxious at the moment. She was worried about Yingchun's situation.

She had been kneeling for half an hour because she was afraid that something might happen to her girl.

Soon after another half hour passed, when Si Qi was extremely anxious, he suddenly heard an exclamation in the hall. It was Tanchun calling for "Second Sister"

This shocked Si Qi, so she stood up and rushed into the lobby without caring about the rules.

At this moment, Yingchun had fainted, and Wang Xifeng, Tanchun and Xichun took her away. He was supported by other women in the house.

The one holding Yingchun's arms was Tanchun. She realized something was wrong as soon as she held her hand, because Yingchun's belly was much bigger.

"What the hell is going on?" Tan Chun was extremely puzzled.

Mrs. After entering the room, he hurriedly reported: "There is no need to call a doctor, the girl is just tired, just rest for a while and you will be fine!" ”

Si Qi’s move confirmed that Tanchun knew the inside story.

So the question Tanchun faces now is whether he should help Yingchun cover up the past.

Just when she made a decision and planned to speak for Si Qi, Mrs. Jia had already walked out of the back hall.

“When will a girl be able to speak like this? Where are the rules? "

Jia Ziyu was sullen and looked at Siqi with a bad look. At this moment, she didn't like this unruly girl.

" StillDon't hurry down! "Mrs. Xing scolded her quickly.

"Madam..."

"Get out! "Mrs. Xing angrily rebuked.

So Si Qi had no choice but to go out, and Jia Mu also ordered: "Go to the doctor quickly. This girl's body and bones have not been in good condition recently. She should have invited someone to take a look at it a long time ago. ! "

Yingchun has finally returned recently, and everyone in the house has actually discovered that it has been so long since we invited a doctor to see it. Now that I think about it, it feels even more abnormal.

" Old lady, the second sister may be tired, so just take a rest while watching your granddaughter! " Tanchun interrupted at the right time.

"How do you understand pathology? If you get sick, you have to treat it. If you delay it, it will become more serious! ”

“Why don’t you send someone to ask for a doctor quickly! "Mother Jia looked at Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng was about to arrange people, when Tanchun handed Yingchun to Xichun, then she stood up, walked to Mum Jia's side and whispered: "Old lady, my granddaughter has something to report! ”

Tanchun knew that if the doctor really came and told the world about Yingchun’s pregnancy, then she would have no choice but to die.

Whether it was for the family’s face or for the Yingchun and Tanchun must "hide this matter" for their lives.

"What's the matter?" "

"Second sister, she..."

Tan Chun whispered a few words, which shocked Jia Mu.

Jia Mu's whole body The computer was down for a few seconds, and then he came back to his senses, with surprise, anger and complaint on his face.

“This girl has been so tired from reading those crappy books all day. madness! "

After scolding her in public, Jia Mu ordered Tanchun again: "You and Xichun, help her inside to rest!" "

"Yes! ”

After Tanchun agreed, he quickly returned to Yingchun and helped her walk with Xichun.

Wang Xifeng was beside her. Although she didn’t understand what was going on, But seeing the two sisters struggling, she instinctively stepped forward to help.

Then she stretched out her hand and discovered something was wrong, so she touched it carefully like Tanchun.

p>

Wang Xifeng was shocked and immediately looked at Tan Chun, who was also staring at her and told her not to say anything with her eyes

"Why are you still standing there? Help him back quickly! " Jia Mu yelled anxiously.

But in the eyes of others, they only thought that the old lady cared about her granddaughter, but did not think too much about it.

What puzzled them was that the second girl looked at After reading those books, I was so exhausted.

After a few breaths, Yingchun was helped to Jia Mu's courtyard. All the serving girls were called out, and only the grandparents and grandchildren were in the room. .

“Fourth girl, go and watch outside and don’t let anyone come over! ”

Xichun didn’t think too much, and left the room after hearing this.

Jia Mu sat on the chair, looked at Wang Xifeng and Tanchun, and then asked in a stern tone : "ThisThings...when did you know? "

"Ancestor, what...what's the matter? Wang Xifeng asked, she was not sure what Jia Mu meant.

Looking at Yingchun lying on the couch, Jia Mu said angrily: "What else could it be?" "

"Old ancestor, my granddaughter just found out. The second sister fainted and my granddaughter helped her, and then she discovered the same thing! ”

“Me too! "Wang Xifeng answered quickly.

Jia Mu had already touched Yingchun's lower abdomen, and she asked pressingly: "She has been in this state for at least three or four months, how can you not know that you have been together day and night? "

Obviously Jia Mu does not agree with this, because it sounds unreliable.

Tan Chun explained: "In recent months, the second sister has been avoiding us. , the granddaughter only thought she was depressed, and really didn’t notice her..."

What Tanchun said was true, so Jia Mu didn’t raise any more objections.

What’s more, the matter is now over. , there is no point in asking any more, the key is to ask things clearly.

For example, the adulterer is that bastard...

"Wake her up! "Jia Mu said with a cold face.

"Yes! "

Tan Chun stepped forward in person, moving very carefully, calling softly while pulling.

"Second sister, second sister..."

Called continuously. After several calls, Yingchun finally woke up. When she turned her head, she saw Jia Mu, Tanchun and Wang Xifeng standing on the left and right.

"Second girl, what's going on in your stomach?" "Jia Mu asked directly.

As soon as these words came out, Yingchun turned to stone on the couch.

Afraid, panic, shame, self-blame...a series of messy thoughts, At this moment, everything came to her mind.

In fact, Tanchun already had the answer to this question, but she didn’t dare to make a judgment at this time.

“Second sister, you are like this. ...What a sin you are doing! Wang Xifeng sighed and felt deeply sorry for Yingchun.

According to the current rules, no matter what reason Yingchun loses her virginity, she will eventually die. After all, the Jia family cannot afford to lose this person. .

“Don’t say it quickly! "Mother Jia was so angry that she stamped her feet.

But Tanchun knew that if it was really Zhu Jinghong who did it, Yingchun had to tell her in order to possibly save her life.

Seeing that Yingchun remained silent, Tanchunfang reminded: "Second sister, please speak quickly...otherwise, you will have no chance to speak! ”

“If you don’t think about yourself, you should also think about the child in your belly! "

Looking at Tanchun, Jia Mu scolded: "What kind of child is there in your belly? That's a bastard!" "

Tanchun didn't dare to say anything anymore, so she could only step aside honestly. If Yingchun was really embarrassed to say it, she would help her sister to speak out at the last moment.

"You said Don’t tell? "Jia Mu asked.

"Second sister, what's going on? Say it quickly! "Wang Xifeng also advised.

WelcomeChun Cheng was completely confused. She couldn't trust anyone here except Tan Chun.

But when she looked at Tanchun, he still had an encouraging expression on her face, which made Yingchun feel a little calmer.

"Yes..."

"Who is it?" Jia Mu was really anxious to death.

"Yes...yes..."

"That's right!" Jia Mu couldn't help but stand up.

"It's Master Thirteen!"

After saying this, Yingchun closed her eyes, and she was ready to accept her fate.

"Who? Thirteenth Master? How..."

This situation completely caught Jia Mu off guard, making her confused for the second time today.

As the royal family and Zhu Jinghong are involved, this matter must be done with caution.

Jia Mu has experienced the world for a long time. She quickly grasped the key to the problem and came to several conclusions.

First of all, the children must stay, secondly, the Spring Festival must be safe, and thirdly, things must be suppressed.

The most difficult question is whether this matter should be reported to the royal family, and who should report it!

The last question is not urgent yet, but the previous matters must be done immediately. The longer it is delayed, the greater the risk of leaking the news.

"What do you think...how to suppress this matter?" Jia Mu directly stated her intention.

When Tanchun heard the word "press down", he immediately felt relieved and was glad that his guess was correct.

She had been thinking about Jia Mu’s question just now and had come up with preliminary ideas.

"Old Ancestor, there are many people in the house talking, and it will become more and more inconvenient for the second sister as time goes by. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for her to stay in the house!"

"Yes!"

In response, Jia Mu then said: "There is a separate courtyard in the south of the city. Send her there to settle her?"

"Send her away suddenly, there is no real reason, I am just afraid of being criticized!"< /p>

"What should we do?" Jia Mu asked.

Tan Chun replied: "My second sister has been studying Taoism for a long time. Now that the Supreme Emperor has passed away, let's ask the second sister to go to another courtyard to clean up and pray for the Supreme Emperor!"

"That's right! If you Qingxiu, no one will need to visit, and naturally no one will find out, and this makes sense!"

It does make sense, because Yingchun likes to read Taoist canon, and people in the house are very fond of it! I know more or less.

What’s more important is that Jia’s mother mentioned “reading so many books” outside just now, which exactly echoes this statement.

Of course, Tanchun has more considerations.

For example, asking Yingchun to pray for the Supreme Emperor is actually to build her reputation so that she will not be too humble when she enters Zhu Jinghong's house.

After Jia Mu thought for a moment, she nodded in agreement with this idea.

"Second girl, are you willing?" Jia Mu asked, her tone unquestionable.

This result was much better than Yingchun expected, so she nodded quickly, and the matter was settled.

Jia Mu then said: "You should rest for the next two days, and thenHow many days will you leave the house again? ”

After Yingchun nodded, Jia’s mother asked about the detailed process of pregnancy. Yingchun hesitated for a long time before she explained everything.

Thinking that her granddaughter was being used by others. Qiang, Jia Mu’s resentment towards Yingchun has dissipated a lot. The recent transcoding has made us more motivated and updated faster. Please use your little hands to exit the reading mode. Thank you
