The Favoured Medical Princess: 725 left out
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!
This time Xiao Yi and Guan Yu spent a lot of effort to get Kui Lang over, and even designed such a good show, mainly to buy time... Kui Lang's death is not a pity, but he should squeeze it out before he dies. Let’s do what’s left of his value, right? !
I have always been diligent and thrifty. Xiao Yi thought happily, but he thought of another thing from this, and said enthusiastically: "Xiao Bai, the new horse breed presented by Gu Na's family seems to be good. A few days ago, there was a message from Nanliang that it has already A group of ponies have grown up. I asked them to send them to Luoyue City, they should arrive in the next few days."
To breed good horse breeds, we need to constantly cross different horse breeds, combine their advantages, eliminate shortcomings, and constantly improve the horses. It can take decades or hundreds of years to breed an excellent new horse breed. .
I just returned the household registration of the good mother and daughter of the Gu Na family, in exchange for a new breed of horse that is hard to find. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is "a huge profit", right?
Xiao Yi thought smugly, hey, A Yue is always muttering about his prodigality! Next time, he will have to provide evidence to defend himself.
Speaking of new horse breeds, Guan Yubai also had bright eyes and said: "Ayi, when the horses arrive, we will go over and have a look. If they are really good horses, we will select some for the Youqi camp."
"There is also the Xinrui Battalion!" Xiao Yi curled his lips with some evil intentions, "With more people and fewer horses, we can't make it too easy for them..."
The Youqi Battalion is still staying in Nanliang. As for the Xinrui Battalion, they will rush back to Wuli City after completing this mission. At that time, let them have a healthy competition...
Xiao Yi seemed to have thought of some "good" idea, his eyes were shining, which made Zhuzi behind him shed tears of sympathy for the people of Youqi Camp and Xinrui Camp.
Although it is winter now, the weather has been good these past few days, and the noonday when the sun is the hottest is like a warm spring day. The cheerful cry of an eagle came from the sky, causing several people below to look up.
Xiao Hui and Han Yu flew over at some point, spinning around above, flying a little lower every time they circled, casting huge shadows on the ground.
Xiao Yi looked up at the two eagles, his eyes fixed on Han Yu, who was a little smaller than Xiao Hui, and said with emotion: "Xiao Bai, Han Yu is already over a year old, time flies so fast, he grows up in the blink of an eye. Big!" He looked at Han Yu with a look of relief, just like an elder looking at a junior.
"Yes." Guan Yubai was stunned and responded with a smile. But no, they picked up Little Hanyu in November last year.
On the other hand, Xiaosi's face turned dark. He always felt that Prince Xiao had some evil intentions. His tone sounded like a peasant woman saying that the pigs had been fattened and should be slaughtered. Got it! ...Bah! Their Han Yu is not a pig!
Xiao Yi touched his chin and continued: "The eagle is almost two years old. By this time next year, Han Yu will be a big eagle and can give birth to eagle babies. It just so happens that I can take my daughter to accompany Han Yu to hatch the eggs. Then let Xiaoying and Nannan grow up together..."
Hearing this, Xiaosi's face turned even more ugly, and he thought to himself: Their Han Yu is only one year old, and he is already being stared at to have a baby! This Xiao Yi simply doesn’t know what to say!
The more Xiao Yi talked, the more excited he became: "Xiao Bai, I'm thinking that I need to practice my painting skills so that I can paint more paintings for my daughter in the future. One day when you are free, I will go to you for advice..."
Xiao Yi kept talking, Guan Yubai responded from time to time, and the few of them drifted away in the sunshine. The winter sunshine in Luoyue City was bright...
A few more days passed "calmly" in the blink of an eye. The arrival of Marquis Pingyang and the third princess according to the order did not cause much commotion in Luoyue City. All the mansions were quietly paying attention to Bixiaotang and saw Nangong Yue. They had no intention of coming out to meet the princess, and they didn't dare to act rashly. They just discussed and speculated among themselves in private, but no one went to the inn to pay tribute to the third princess for several days.
The gate of the inn was deserted, and the fire in the heart of the third princess grew stronger and stronger...
After another two days, Mrs. Qiao just learned that the third princess was coming. She was so angry that she said: "There are no rules, there are really no rules! It is rare for Her Highness the Third Princess to come to Luo Yuecheng, and the concubine has not gone there yet. Greetings at the inn, such rudeness, if word spreads, others will think that our Zhennan Palace does not understand the rules!"
Hearing what Dr. Qiao kept saying about "our Zhennan Palace", the aunt who came to report had a slightly subtle expression, but she did not dare to correct Dr. Qiao. She smiled diligently and said: "That's why I need you, madam, to teach you well." The Crown Princess..."
"Then the crown prince must appreciate it!" Mrs. Qiao snorted disdainfully, and after pondering for a moment, she ordered, "Hurry up and send a greeting card to the inn. I want to meet the third princess." I thought. As King Zhennan has become more and more cold towards her recently, Mrs. Qiao secretly vowed to do this matter beautifully and let her brother know that she is much more reliable than the Crown Princess!
"Yes, madam." The nanny quickly accepted the order and went down to draft the post...
An hour later, the nanny came back in a hurry from outside and reported that the third princess had accepted the invitation.
Mrs. Qiao was overjoyed and quickly ordered her servants to prepare generous gifts. She went to the inn the next day. She deliberately arranged eight guards and prepared two black flat-top carriages, and went to the inn with great fanfare.
Such a swagger naturally attracted the attention of all the mansions in southern Xinjiang. Many mansions were a little unsure. I wonder if Mrs. Qiao went to see the third princess because of the wishes of King Zhennan.
Most of the mansions were still carefully trying to figure out the meaning of Zhennan Palace and Bixiaotang, but some mansions couldn't bear it any longer. Mrs. Chang simply sent a message to Bixiaotang, wanting to test Nangong Yue's intentions. manner.
After all, the Chang family is already a royal family, so they have to follow the footsteps of the prince and concubine!
No, Mrs. Chang came with her daughter Chang Huanwei early in the morning the next day, and was invited to Xihong Hall by her servants. After some pleasantries, Mrs. Chang and her daughter sat down.
Before the maid served tea, the impatient Mrs. Chang pretended to be casual and said: "Your Majesty, it's a coincidence that I passed by Yanglou Street yesterday and happened to meet Mrs. Qiao. I was supposed to go there. I'm here to say hello, but it's a pity that Mrs. Qiao left in a hurry..."
Nangong Yue's hand holding the tea cup paused in mid-air. Although Mrs. Chang didn't mention the third princess at all, she had already understood the other party's hint.
The inn set up by the government is on Yanglou Street, which is to the north and south of Qiao Mansion. Of course Mrs. Qiao will not "happen" to pass there.
There were people watching at the inn, and every move was reported to Bixiaotang truthfully. Nangong Yue also knew that Mrs. Qiao visited the third princess, but she didn't take it to heart.
Nangong Yue's eyes flashed and she said with a smile: "Yanglou Street is in the north of the city, right? I have been in Luoyue City for a few years, but I have never been there. I heard the prince said that that area is very boring."
Hearing this, Mrs. Chang was determined. Since the prince said that they did not need to pay attention to the person at the inn, they just had to follow their lead.
At this time, a little maid in Tsing Yi neatly served hot tea and snacks to the guests.
Chang Huanwei gave her mother an urging look by holding the tea cup. Mrs. Chang blinked and signaled her daughter to calm down, thinking: I don’t know who my daughter looks like with this quick temper.
After Mrs. Chang took a sip of hot tea, she said with a smile: "Yes, Crown Princess, this Yanglou Street is really boring. I happened to pass by it on my way to East Yulin Lane. My Brother Xi My son is going out again in a few days, so I wanted to customize a set of soft armor for him, and I happened to pick it up yesterday. This shop is also old for decades, and the craftsmanship of the master is nothing to say, Brother Xi After his grandmother asked Brother Xi to put it on, she even tried it with a dagger."
Hearing this, Que'er twitched his brows speechlessly. She had met Mrs. Chang once before in Huanxi Pavilion, and she was so impressed by this old man's unexpected words and deeds.
"I wonder which shop it is?" Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows, showing a hint of interest, "I can go over and have a look if I have time." There are many weapons, knives, horse gear and the like over there in East Yulin Lane Shop, for example, the riding whip Xiao Yi gave her before was custom-made by a shop there.
"It's called Zhenghaotang." Mrs. Chang replied with a smile, and then she talked about Chang Huaixi, "My brother Xi, he has really become a completely different person since he joined the prince. In the past two years, he has become more and more different. The more you get better." Her tone sounded like "Old Wang sells melons and boasts of himself". Chang Huanwei on her right nodded frequently with a concerned expression.
Looking at the Chang family's mother and daughter, Que'er couldn't help but lower his head and suppress his laughter.
Mrs. Chang was still talking: "Brother Xi is not young anymore. Originally, I was afraid that his naughty temper would harm other girls, so I never engaged him. Now that he is sensible, I think You can also slowly give him a good look and find a stable and sensible wife. There is a saying: 'Men are afraid of getting into the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man.' This marriage is a matter of life, so I think it is better to take it slowly. Pick, pick carefully, Crown Princess, do you think this is true?"
There are many girls in the family, so Nangong Yue certainly understands what Mrs. Chang is implying. She smiles and responds casually: "Marriage should be a matter of caution."
Mrs. Chang had been observing her words, and seeing that Nangong Yue did not show any displeasure, she gave her daughter Chang Huanwei a proud look, feeling that what she said today was really beautiful.
Xiao Fei is still observing filial piety and cannot discuss marriage for the time being, so Mrs. Chang cannot blatantly come to propose marriage. Today, Mrs. Chang is seizing the opportunity to report to the imperial concubine first, so as not to fall behind others and not be able to grab her daughter-in-law. . After all, time flies by in the blink of an eye, and Miss Xiao will be filial piety by June next year.
Miss Xiao will be fifteen next year, and she is planning to get married in her twenties. Although Miss Xiao’s status is a bit embarrassing now because of Xiao Fang, given her harmonious relationship with the concubine, she will be watched by then. I'm afraid there will be quite a few people who fall in love with her...
Thinking about Xiao Fei's marriage, Mrs. Chang frowned, and then she remembered the day when Mrs. Yan "wooed" Xiao Fei for Young Master Yan in public. She felt a little emotional in her heart, and added in a casual chatter: " Imperial Concubine, I heard that Madam Yan has been proposing marriage arrangements to Third Young Master Yan recently..." Madam Chang deliberately emphasized the word "again".
"Do you know which company Mrs. Chang is talking about?" Nangong Yue frowned slightly, feeling that judging from Mrs. Yan's usual behavior, she might not do anything good.
Mrs. Chang sighed and said: "It is said that they are talking about a merchant girl named Qiu..." The status of the merchant is already low. If the girl's family is of good character, then that's it, but...
After Mrs. Chang paused for a moment, she continued angrily: "The girl from the Qiu family has a somewhat inappropriate reputation. There were rumors outside that she and her cousin were having an affair. Later, because the two families were engaged, outsiders It was rumored for a while and then nothing happened, but half a month ago her cousin got sick and died, so Mrs. Qiu was anxious to find a match for her daughter and promised to marry her with 20,000 taels of silver. Imperial Concubine, what do you mean? By setting such a marriage for Young Master Yan, doesn’t it make it clear that Madam is cheating on Young Master Yan?” Yan Xijun has a good relationship with Chang Huaixi now, so he has naturally visited the Chang Mansion, and Madam Chang regards him as her nephew. , speaking of it, there is inevitably indignation in the words.
If what Mrs. Chang said is true, then Mrs. Yan really went too far this time! A cold light flashed in Nangong Yue's eyes. Although marriage is the order of the parents, Yan Xijun is from the Xinrui camp, which means he is Xiao Yi's younger brother. Xiao Yi has always protected his shortcomings, so he will not let his younger brother suffer...
It seems that I still need to mention this matter to A Yi.
Some people won’t gain any wisdom unless they take a hard time!
Nangong Yue made up her mind.
After Mrs. Chang chatted with Nangong Yue for a while, Nangong Yue subconsciously held her back, with a faint look of boredom on her brows.
Mrs. Chang was about to say goodbye politely, but as she spoke, she suddenly had a thought in her mind and reminded her kindly: "The Crown Princess should be giving birth soon, right? I wonder if the wet nurse and Wen Po are ready?" It was not her turn to remind her about this kind of thing. She just thought that the imperial concubine had no mother-in-law and her biological mother was not around, so Mrs. Chang went beyond the rules and reminded her.
"Mr. Wen has already chosen, and the wet nurse is still choosing." Nangong Yue smiled and stroked her bulging belly. Looking back, time seems to fly by in the blink of an eye. By the end of January next year, the child should be born.
Actually, Nangong Yue plans to breastfeed the child herself. If this news spreads, it may be a bit shocking. In Dayu, only poor families will breastfeed their children by themselves. Rich families will hire wet nurses to breastfeed their children. of. It's just that Nangong Yue is a medical student. She once read in medical books that it is not only good for the mother to feed the child, but also for the mother herself.
Even so, the nanny who will take care of the child still has to be chosen in case she does not have enough milk herself. These days, I have selected some reliable women with innocent family backgrounds, and I will wait until three or five are selected before choosing for myself.
Seeing that Nangong Yue knew what was going on, Mrs. Chang stopped saying anything and stood up to leave with Chang Huanwei.
After the Chang family's mother and daughter left, Nangong Yue also stood up with Baihui's support. As she walked out of the hall, she asked, "Baihui, how did you choose the nanny?"
Since Nangong Yue and Xiao Yi returned from Wuli City, Baihui and An Niang began to select suitable nanny candidates from the children brought by the Wang Mansion and Nangong Mansion. This nanny will take care of the young master’s growth. In the future, many nannies are likely to become the confidants of the young master, and even the nanny's family will have chickens and dogs ascended to heaven from then on. Therefore, the requirements for nannies in various governments are also extremely strict. First, they must have a clean financial background, and they must also have a pure nature and understand the rules, so as not to Taught the little master bad.
This is true for ordinary mansions, let alone the most noble Zhennan Palace in southern Xinjiang. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is one of a hundred.
First, a group of pregnant women with suitable birth months were selected from the family and sent to the palace. Then Zhu Xing checked their net worth and three generations, eliminated some candidates, and then Baihui selected seven or eight people. Now Arranged to stay temporarily in the wing of Bixiaotang in order to teach the rules of the palace and observe the character and daily habits...
Baihui respectfully replied: "Prince Concubine, I have just been taught the rules for two days, and some of them look pretty good..."
Nangong Yue nodded slightly and was not in a hurry.
Of course, Nannan’s nanny must be carefully selected, especially with the lessons of Grandma Lu still in front of us...
While talking, the master and servants entered Nangong Yue's house.
Nangong Yue was so hot that she broke into a thin sweat even though she could only walk a hundred feet or so.
As a result, the house became busy and commotion. A few maids were afraid that Nangong Yue would catch a cold, so they helped Nangong Yue undress in the inner room, wiped her body with warm water, and then dressed her again.
Nangong Yue had just put on her middle coat, and Xiao Yi came back early and appeared quietly at the door of the clean room.
"Your Majesty." Huamei paused for a moment and saluted Xiao Yi together with Baihui.
Xiao Yi didn't even look at them, his eyes lingered on Nangong Yue's snow-white tunic, with a look of regret in his eyes.
A-Yue has been avoiding him since her belly got bigger and bigger, saying that her body has changed, so she only allows him to talk to her belly.
Actually, Xiao Yi feels in his heart that his A-Yue is the most beautiful no matter what she is, but A-Yue is shy.
Hey——
Xiao Yi sighed silently in his heart, not daring to make her anxious, so he had no choice but to obey.
He made a gesture to the maid. After Baihui and Huamei looked at each other, they withdrew knowingly.
Xiao Yi said enthusiastically: "Prince, Xiao Yi, please help you get dressed." He didn't care at all that the two maids behind him almost staggered.
Nangong Yue pretended not to notice and let Xiao Yi serve her.
Xiao Yi pinched the bra prepared by the maid and frowned. It was too thin.
A Yue has always been afraid of the cold.
"Ah Yue, let me get you a jacket..."
Before he finished speaking, he felt a small hand tugging on his sleeve.
With such a simple action, Xiao Yi felt her helplessness.
He bowed his head and looked at Nangong Yue’s little face, which was flushed red by the hot water vapor, as beautiful as the peach blossoms in spring. Nangong Yue said helplessly: “Ayi, your daughter is like a small stove. "There was a bit of coquettishness in his tone.
Xiao Yi has always been not afraid of the cold. Even in the cold winter in the royal capital, he would only wear a thin robe. Nangong Yue, on the other hand, was most afraid of the cold. In previous winters, she always wrapped herself up tightly. Seriously, this year is the only exception... In the past half month, the weather has been getting colder and colder, but she has become more and more afraid of the heat!
Looking at her watery eyes, Xiao Yi felt as if he had eaten honey and felt very comfortable.
Ah Yue is acting coquettishly towards herself!
The corners of his mouth raised uncontrollably, and he said with a smile: "That's right! My daughter is of course like me!"
As soon as she saw Xiao Yi acting like "my daughter is good at everything" and "she is like me in everything", Nangong Yue let go of her hand speechlessly, feeling that neither of them could talk properly.
Xiao Yi whistled happily and helped Nangong Yue put on a pink pleated skirt and a plum-red butterfly-carved silk jacket. After looking at it with satisfaction, she put it on Nangong Yue hugged her, saying that she was afraid that she would sweat if she moved around.
Incense was lit in the inner room, and the fragrance as clear as plum blossoms filled the room. It calmed down people's hearts after smelling it.
After Xiao Yi placed Nangong Yue on the beauty's couch, he personally made hot tea for Nangong Yue. Then, while covering her hands as usual, he asked: "Prince Concubine, do you have any other instructions?"
The delicate voice made Nangong Yue burst into laughter. The young couple got tired of being together and talked about each other's experiences today.
In the inner room, there is only the sound of two people chatting and laughing from time to time, which is warm and relaxing...
In December, Nangong Yue's body became heavier, and everyone in Bixiaotang looked at her cautiously, wishing they could support her at all times. Nangong Yue knew that at this time, she had to be more active, so she insisted on walking around the yard in the morning and dusk every day.
On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Marquis Pingyang, who led troops to search for Kuilang's whereabouts, finally returned to Luoyue City. He did not go to Zhennan Palace, but went directly to the inn to see the third princess...
