The emperor came out, and the Wei family ended its prosperity in midsummer.

On July [-]th, this special Ghost Festival, the Queen Mother Wei died, and the emperor did not kneel before the coffin, but let the Ministry of Rites cooperate with the Clan House to be responsible for the funeral of the Queen Mother Wei.

The coffin only stopped for seven days before a funeral was arranged. The funeral could be called simple, but no one dared to disobey the emperor's personal words.

Even the Wei family didn't come forward to raise objections, because they couldn't protect themselves.

After Empress Dowager Wei's funeral, only one day later, the Wei family was ransacked, because someone said that the Wei family was collaborating with the enemy and treason, which is a serious crime enough to punish the nine clans.

Does the emperor want to destroy the entire Wei family? It's not to this extent. Of course, it's not the Wei family that's worried, but the courtiers. The emperor's purpose is too clear. Most of the courtiers are people with eight hundred hearts. Knowing the real situation, in order not to chill the hearts of the courtiers, the emperor could not do too much.

Although the house was confiscated, it only collected the property of the Wei family in the capital, and the old family still let him keep it. Then the whole Wei family was allowed to return to their ancestral home, and they were not allowed to enter Beijing for nothing, and they were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination within three generations.

The Wei family left the capital in autumn. In this eventful autumn, with the departure of the Wei family, the capital seemed to be at peace.

Chen Xiuyan's stomach was also swollen, not a normal bulge. After another three months, her belly changed almost every day, getting bigger every day.

Chu Wenqian was terrified. Although Chen Xiuyan knew medical skills, she was pregnant after all. It is an old saying that doctors can't heal themselves. Almost every day, the government doctor came to check Chen Xiuyan's pulse.

"There should be more than one." Chen Xiuyan had guessed this when her stomach was different from before.

"I didn't get the pulse before, Shi Zifei, should I find a doctor who specializes in this." The government doctor was a little timid after getting the pulse of the twins. He was not proficient in this and could not afford the risk.

"Well, I got it." Chen Xiuyan will not force people. Although she is not the first child, the risk of twins is higher than that of ordinary pregnant women. She does not dare to take it too seriously. She should invite a doctor in this area to work in the mansion. .

"Ma'am, Mrs. Wu is here." Nanny Mu came in and reported.

"Please." After Chen Xiuyan finished speaking, she asked the doctor to go down first.

Because of the death of Empress Dowager Wei, Luo Mingchu and Wu Miaowei's marriage was postponed due to the inability to get married within a month.

"Xiuyan, whoops, why is your belly so big? It can't be twins." Mrs. Wu said in surprise when she saw Chen Xiuyan's belly.

"It's twins." Chen Xiuyan replied with a smile, "Fortunately, she has given birth before, otherwise it would be even more difficult if the first child were twins."

"Who says no, you are very lucky." Mrs. Wu sat down with a smile, and when she saw the tea brought in by Madam Miao, she happily used it, "I still like the tea at your house. It’s not as delicious as Grandma Miao’s.”

"Come to the house more often, and let Nanny Miao cook for you what you like to eat, and bring some back when you go back later, so that Miaowei and the others can taste it too." Chen Xiuyan agreed.

"Just waiting for your words." Mrs. Wu smiled wantonly. Ever since she got close to Chen Xiuyan, she liked to come to Prince Jin's mansion. Getting along with her was more comfortable than those sisters-in-law of her natal family.

"Xiuyan, we will hold the wedding of the two children on August [-]th, which happens to be a month after the Queen Mother Wei passed away. Is it too late?" Mrs. Wu mainly came to ask about this today.

The date was yesterday. Chen Xiuyan had just picked it out and sent it to Gu's residence.

"Get it done as soon as possible." Chen Xiuyan said seriously, she couldn't tell Mrs. Wu directly about the matter of Mrs. Wu's unwell health, for fear that she would have to go into mourning after finishing it.

"You've already said that, so it's up to you." Madam Wu was actually just asking for an answer. She knew that the Jin Palace was standing behind the prince, so what Chen Xiuyan said was right.
