Chapter 229

Su House.

Today, Emperor Jianning summoned several confidant ministers to discuss matters in the imperial study, so Su Yi came back late.

"The master is back, and the dinner is ready. You can use it after washing your hands." Cui gently took her husband's official hat and helped him take off his outer robe. I ordered lotus seed soup, the master will taste it later."

"Ma'am, don't worry. I'm busy these days, so I really don't need to wait for me to come back to have dinner together. You have a weak spleen and stomach, so you have to eat on time." Su Yi whispered.

Cui nodded with a smile, and handed him a wet handkerchief to wipe his hands.

"Ning'er came over this afternoon, and I ate a lot of snacks while talking to her, but I'm not hungry."

"What did you mother and daughter whisper again?"

After wiping his hands, Su Yi took his wife's hand and pulled her to sit down at the table, smiling.

Cui closed her eyes, waved her hand to screen off the servants in the room, and served the dishes herself.

Seeing this situation, Su Yi knew that his wife had something private to tell him, so he immediately asked.

"What's wrong, something happened at home?"

"That's not true." Cui said in a low voice, "Today Ning'er and Wanyin went to Baiyu Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings, and met Zhiyi, who said she was pregnant, but it was difficult under the eyes of the princess, please Let's try to get her some birth control pills."

After hearing these words, Su Yi's face became a little heavy.

"I'm afraid we don't need to send anti-fetal drugs now."

Cui Shi was taken aback, "Why did the master say such a thing?"

"Today, I was in the palace to meet with the Holy Spirit, and someone came to announce the good news to the emperor, saying that the concubine of the Jin Dynasty, Su Shi, was pregnant for more than a month. She even asked Ning'er for help secretly in the morning, and told the public in the afternoon. I don't know. What's the twist here."

Regarding the news outside, Cui didn't ask anyone to inquire about it. She really didn't know that Su Zhiyi's pregnancy had been made public.

After learning about this meeting, he frowned.

"At first, she wanted to hide it from the outside world, so she lowered her head and begged Ning'er for help. Now, although she doesn't know the reason, the fact that she is pregnant has been known to everyone, and we are afraid that it is even more difficult for us to intervene."

Su Yi took a long breath, his eyes were also tangled.

After a while, he finally said in a low voice.

"It's against the rules for us to send anti-abortion medicine into the Prince Jin's residence, but giving her some money and nourishing medicinal materials can be regarded as pretty."

She didn't give anything for happy events like her daughter's pregnancy. Isn't that telling outsiders that Su Zhiyi is estranged from her mother's family?

King Jin is not in the mansion right now, Su Zhiyi is pregnant at this time, it is a thorn in the eyes of many people, without the support of her mother's family at all, I am afraid that it will be difficult and frightening.

Su Yi didn't want to get involved in the fight for the heirloom, but his daughter was his own, after all, he didn't want to just watch her get lost in the fight in the back house. At least for the time being, he would protect one or two willing.

Parents are like this, no matter how sad and disappointed their children make them, they can't bear to really watch what happens to her.

Cui Shi nodded, thinking about making arrangements tomorrow.

Tibetan jade pavilion.

"Miss, the hot water is ready, and this servant will wait for you to take a bath." Yingmei came out of the inner room and said in a low voice.

Su Junning was taking off her jewelry while Nan Xu was combing her hair.

"Okay, you guys go out first, I will soak for a while, and I will ask you to come in and wash my hair later."

A few servant girls responded, retreated, and closed the door.

Su Junning stood up to exercise her muscles and bones, and then slowly walked into the inner room, stepped into the bathtub, the water was just up to her shoulders, and wrapped her well, and her fatigue disappeared in an instant.

As soon as the whole body relaxes, thoughts can't help flying.

He remembered the scene of talking with Yan Shi at Shen's house today, the scene of himself praying at Baiyu Temple, and also remembered that he wrote a few short greetings in a hurry and hid the earrings in the envelope.

I don't know when this letter will be delivered to Shen Qianwei. He fought bloody battles with Yanhu at the border, and he doesn't know if he has enough to eat, if he is injured, and if he can sleep peacefully at night.

Thinking of this in her heart, Su Junning couldn't help reaching out to touch her empty earlobe, feeling a little empty in her heart.

I just hope that the war will subside soon and that he can come back safely.

This is far away, and I can't tell you even if I miss it.

But at this time, Shen Qianwei, who was far away in the western region, was not like this.

"Boss, there is roasted rabbit today, why didn't you eat much, I brought you a rabbit leg, eat it quickly."

Holding a roasted rabbit leg in his hand, Zheng Han ran over with a smile, and saw Shen Qianwei carefully flipping through a sachet.

"Yo, this corner is broken, how did you do it?"

"The armor is too heavy and worn out." Shen Qianwei frowned, "No one can help me mend it."

On the battlefield, they wear linen clothes under their armor, because cotton clothes and satin are not expensive, and they are not well-made at all.

And this sachet was made by Su Junning with high-quality fabrics, these days Shen Qianwei wore it every day, and it was broken.

The ring and the jade pendant were kept by Haosheng and placed in the tent, but I thought the sachet was not easy to break, so I carried it next to my body, but unexpectedly it broke.

Zheng Han leaned over to take a closer look, then smiled.

"This is my sister-in-law's handiwork. I'm afraid I'll have to send it to the city for such delicate needlework. I'll ask the embroiderer to mend it."

Shen Qianwei sighed, "Forget it, I'll go sometime when I'm free."

After saying that, he put away the sachet, and took the roasted rabbit leg from Zheng Han's hand.

"Yanhu has suffered a few times, and seems to be holding back some bad water these days. Tell the people under him to be vigilant, widen their eyes and ears, and don't let people take advantage of their loopholes."

"Don't worry, I've won a big victory in the first battle, and the morale of the brothers is high."

Zheng Han sat down on the floor next to him, looked up at the bright starry sky, and smacked his lips.

"I'm going back this time, and I have to talk about a daughter-in-law and give birth to a fat boy. No matter how late it is, I'm afraid my grandmother won't see it."

Speaking of it, Zheng Han is also a poor man. His parents died of illness one after another. He grew up with his grandparents. He joined the army in Yanzhou and served under Shen He's command. He was sent to follow Shen Qianwei.

After finally entering Beijing and becoming an official post, life is better, the poor old man has a relapse, and he is gone, and now there is only one grandmother left.

Originally, Shen Qianwei didn't want to take him with him when he came to the Western Territory this time, but the old lady of the Zheng family had a temper, so she directly kicked Zheng Han out, telling him to go out with the army and not to think about this old bone at home.

Shen Qianwei knew the situation of his family best, so she patted him on the shoulder vigorously right now.

"Don't worry, when I go back, I'll ask my mother to tell you a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law!"

"Then I can thank the boss first." Zheng Han chuckled, and said again, "I'm going back this time, boss, your marriage should also be done."

When he said that, the expression in Shen Qianwei's eyes suddenly became much gentler.

Squeezing the purse in his hand, the corners of Shen Qianwei's lips curled up slightly.

"Sure, we'll do it when we get back."
