prince's rivers and lakes

Chapter 133
The empress dowager is tall and plump. When her abdomen bulges slightly, not only will it not destroy her figure curves, but it will also add a kind of maternal gentle brilliance.

"In the morning, I felt a little sore..." The empress dowager was a little puzzled. At that time, she thought it was just that he gave too much, and it would be fine after a while.

But now it seems that this is not the reason for giving too much, and it is impossible to get better after a while.

She involuntarily raised her hand to stroke her belly, but she had a premonition that her belly might get bigger and bigger.

"Is it flatulence?" Chong Huamei asked worriedly.

The Empress Dowager's physique is very strange, she has some inherent fatal flaws, but she is invulnerable to all diseases in general.

This kind of physique is often fatal if there is a physical problem, so the seemingly flatulence has already made Chong Huamei very nervous.

"Probably not, there are no gas-prone dishes for today's meal." The empress dowager thought about it for a while and shook her head slightly.

After finishing speaking, she raised her hand to signal for Rehua Mei to take the pulse.

Chong Huamei stretched out two fingers and landed on her soft and fair wrist. The Empress Dowager looks a little lazy today, but her charming look is even more charming. If it is really the harmony of yin and yang, it will be moistened by clouds and rain, and more spring will sprout.

"Ah..." Chong Huamei suddenly felt something was wrong when she touched it.

The Empress Dowager frowned slightly.

Chong Huamei felt the empress dowager's pulse with concentration, and after a while, she continued: "Empress dowager, I will input zhenqi to check the meridians."

"Ah."

Chong Huamei poured her true energy into the acupuncture points on the Empress Dowager's wrist.

Encountering the power of the acupoints to devour the true qi, the true qi of Chonghuamei is not like Qin Shouan that would be completely absorbed, but like a light boat breaking through the Yangtze River, rushing along the route, and the empress dowager The body is unimpeded.

Ninth-Rank Peak is not just one level higher than Eighth-Rank Peak.

The true energy reached the empress dowager's dantian, and then spread out, wrapping the nearby viscera, looking around like invisible tentacles.

Finally, in the warmest and softest part of the abdomen, I found another heartbeat.

thumping—

Slow but full of vitality, a life that grows stubbornly.

thumping—

It is making its own voice cheerfully and cannot speak, but it can tell others that it is born.

thumping—

Rehuamei feels that it is rejoicing that someone discovered it, that is, it is trying to communicate with the person who discovered it.

"Empress Dowager, you seem to be happy."

Chong Hua said with a smile on her face, she probably felt the little life, and her tone was extremely gentle.

The Empress Dowager stared at Chong Huamei in a daze.

"This..." The empress dowager's eyes made Chong Huamei realize that something was really wrong when it wasn't congratulations.

How could anyone who could reconcile yin and yang yesterday, be able to diagnose pregnancy by pulse the next day, and then show pregnancy?
Normally, at least some pregnancy symptoms are needed before people realize that they may be pregnant, and a more accurate diagnosis can be made through pulse analysis at the earliest one month later.

As for showing pregnancy, it takes more than three months.

In the first three months of a woman's pregnancy, the appearance of her abdomen hardly changes, and only in the fourth month will she have the slightly bulging state of the empress dowager.

"Check again." The queen mother was not angry at Chong Huamei's absurd conclusion, but asked her to be more careful with a solemn expression.

Chong Huamei lowered her head, put her ear against the Empress Dowager's belly and listened, and felt that extremely cheerful heartbeat again.

Her fingers popped out her zhenqi, she tapped a few big acupoints extremely quickly, and then pressed the empress dowager's lower pole acupoint, the incomparably abundant zhenqi surged out from her whole body, wrapping the empress dowager gently.

A strange scene appeared, the whole body of the Empress Dowager floated up, relaxed her limbs incomparably comfortable, and then curled up with her chest and abdomen in her arms, like a baby sleeping in the arms of its mother.

There was also a reassuring smile on his face.

Chong Huamei slowly restrained her true energy, and then let the empress dowager's body fall down. After the true energy was fully attached to the surface of her skin, Chong Huamei swept her fingers across her eyes, and whispered: "Open!"

A faint blue color condensed in her eyes, like ice crystals, staring at the empress dowager's abdomen for three breaths, then closed her eyes.

The empress dowager is not used to standing naked all the time, so she pulled a plain gauze gown and put it on, her plump body was covered in a hazy way, she looked down at herself exuding a kind of maternal tenderness, her heart was beating with inexplicable expect.

It's not that she can't accept that she's pregnant... She just can't believe that the belly swelled up overnight because she was pregnant.

"Empress Dowager, I guarantee with the head of the item... You are indeed pregnant, and you will give birth soon." Chong Huamei consumed a lot of true energy and used a secret technique of Riyue Mountain to " "Visual" method to directly "see" the fetus in the Empress Dowager's womb.

"how is this possible!"

"Impossible, maybe we will see the outcome within a few days."

The empress dowager was silent. Several people in the palace had been worrying about the plans of the heir to the throne. Chong Huamei was one of them. On such an important time, with Chong Huamei's temperament, she would not talk nonsense and deceive her.

"From ancient times to the present, where has such absurd thing happened? Have you ever heard of the precedent of a woman becoming pregnant overnight after a man and a woman?" The queen mother still couldn't believe it. She gently stroked her abdomen with her hands and stared wide. With her eyes closed, the sunlight and bamboo shadows outside the window formed colorful fragments, swaying in her pupils.

"I've never heard of it, but now I've seen it with my own eyes." Chong Huamei said with a solemn expression: "Didn't the imperial doctor Chen also say that? Isn't the physique like the empress dowager and the son unprecedented?"

"By the way, I urgently called Imperial Physician Chen to come and see me." It's not that the Empress Dowager didn't believe in Chong Huamei, but it's still more authoritative for this kind of thing to be diagnosed by Imperial Physician Chen.

"Yes!"

The Empress Dowager had no intention of bathing at this time, and after Chong Huamei withdrew, she sent people to Longyin City to invite Chen Yizhai, and at the same time sent people to the four junior sisters in Ji Jing Zhao Jian Nunnery.

Chong Huamei already had some thoughts, the fetus in the empress dowager's body was unusual, but it was not completely impossible to explain this situation.

It is very likely to be related to the physique of the Empress Dowager who always needs to be filled with real energy on a regular basis.

For so many years, the people of Riyue Mountain, including the owner of the mountain, Chonghuamei, and the four junior sisters of Jijingzhaojianan, would infuse the empress dowager with true energy every once in a while.

The Empress Dowager does not know martial arts, nor has she practiced mental techniques, but her body's tolerance for true energy is astonishing.

If you don't fill her body with true energy regularly, the Empress Dowager's body will become very weak, but after filling her body with true energy, she can maintain a healthy state for quite a period of time, and the true energy is far more acceptable than ordinary people. Dissipates quickly after irrigation.

Thinking about it now, the zhenqi that dissipated in the Empress Dowager's body at an extraordinary speed over the years may not have been wasted, but accumulated in an unknown place in her body.

When she reconciled with Shizi's yin and yang, these true qi became the capital for the fetus to grow up overnight.

This is Chonghuamei's current thinking.

Now is not the time to delve into the reasons, the most important thing is to ensure the safety of the Empress Dowager and the fetus.

If the rapid growth of this fetus is due to the true qi accumulated by the empress dowager, then it means that its subsequent growth will require more true qi.

Chong Huamei was worried that relying on her true qi support alone would not be enough at the critical moment.

If the fetus absorbed too much zhenqi, and the empress dowager fell into a weak state, it might not be as simple as fainting at this time.

It is possible to endanger the empress dowager or the fetus, so the four junior sisters must be called for support.

After dispatching two groups of Longyin Guards to leave, Chong Huamei came to a racetrack again.

A little girl in her early teens was riding a three-foot-tall pony. She was swinging a cue by herself, hitting the polo all over the field.

"Oh oh oh... I scored again!"

"The number one polo player in Xinqin is on the attack!"

"The King of the Snow Region on the Kunlun Mountains—Xiaoma is charging!"

"Hey, Xiao Zhong, what are you doing here?"

The little girl reined in the horse, failed a handsome unsaddle action, staggered and let out an "oops", and fell into Chonghua Mei's arms.

Chonghuamei deflected the force of the collision smoothly, and hugged her firmly.

"The empress dowager has some problems, maybe you need to fill her body with real energy." Chong Hua's eyebrows were filled with deep worry.

The little girl's exquisite appearance showed a look of hard thinking. She tilted her head to the left and right, and then her brows that were clustered were scattered, as if she had forgotten something.

"Grumble, let's go!"

After finishing speaking, the little girl got on the horse, finally sat firmly, and gave a "drive", driving the pony towards the polo on the playing field.

She raised the club high and then swung it, but she didn't touch the ball at all, but instead blew up a piece of turf and dirt.

"Hey—" Chong Huamei sighed softly.

……

……

The carriage of Prince Langya's mansion was unimpeded. After entering the city, Bai Ji finally pulled her hand out from under the blanket. She helped Qin Shouan tidy up his trousers, but she was still a little unsatisfied.

Tang Wanrong didn't want to talk to Qin Shouan, but Hei Ji didn't have the delicate thoughts to find anything from the slight differences in eyebrows between men and women.

so fun.

Qin Shouan found a remote place, and went to the fresh fish shop near the ferry.

Yesterday, the owner of this shop pointed to a fish and asked Qin Shouan if he was okay. Just because Qin Shouan said "It's good", he threw the fish to death and began to blackmail Qin Shouan.

So Qin Shouan killed him.

Also killed two of his buddies.

Of course it was wrong for the shop owner to blackmail people, but Qin Shouan just killed three people like this, so it was considered a crime of murder.

It stands to reason that he became a murderer, and a murderer who is not too experienced and a little bit arrogant will go back to the scene to have a look.

When Qin Shouan came to the fresh fish shop, he saw that many people had already gathered here.

There are many witnesses to the case, it is simple and clear, and there is no need to send it to the Yamen for an autopsy by Wu (wu).

The deceased's family members and clansmen were busy with the funeral affairs. It could be seen that the shopkeeper had saved a lot of property by extorting money, even if he was a notorious hooligan, he was still able to handle the funeral affairs far better than ordinary people.

The owner of the shop actually married a wife and a concubine. The two wore burlap clothes, but they looked fine and tender, obviously living a good life.

Although the wife was crying, she just stood aside, covering her face with her hands from time to time, while the concubine was even more shocked, lying on the corpse and wailing non-stop, her voice hoarse.

The woman raised her head and looked outside, just in time to meet Qin Shouan's eyes, but she was stunned for a moment.

Qin Shouan was slightly puzzled, did she recognize him?
Was this woman there yesterday?Qin Shouan sorted out the pictures in his mind, and he had an impression.

The woman was sitting at the back of the fresh fish shop with a pair of sharp scissors in her hand when he killed the shopkeeper and the clerk.

At that time, she sat there with a cold expression, watching her husband being killed without any movement, and then the corners of her mouth curled up strangely.

It's hard to see that she's crying now.

The woman said something to the concubine, then circled around and approached Qin Shouan avoiding people's eyes.

"Thank you Eng."

Standing in front of Qin Shouan, the woman's face was still like pear blossoms with rain, her eyelashes were stained by tears, and her fair complexion was slightly weak, which aroused pity.

Wearing a burlap mourning dress, her body is delicate and frail, and she looks like a young widow, full of conscienceless and inhuman temptations.

"Thank me for what?" The location of Qin Shou'an's station was actually very unobtrusive, and most people would not notice it at all.

He originally came here to see if there were any government servants arresting the head, and then asked them to hunt him down, and chase him to Langya Palace to find out his identity—so that they can close the case.

In addition to good intentions, it is also to strengthen the stereotype of Langya Prince's son by the people of Longyin City, knowing that apart from being cruel and tyrannical, everyone he kills has a reason to be killed.

At the same time, there will be some people who will notice that when Qin Shouan killed someone, it was the first time when the King of Nanjun and the government of the capital dropped the red poppy ointment for the first time.

They are not so stupid that there is no cure, they will find that Qin Shouan is behind the planning and promotion of the whole thing, and finally realize that in Qin Shouan's eyes, whoever is contaminated with the red poppy herb ointment, Qin Shouan will be at odds with anyone, Have one make another.

This will make many people dislike him, but Qin Shouan doesn't care.

Now the people from Zongzheng Temple are probably waiting outside Langya Palace.

If there is still an auspicious time this afternoon, he can even inherit the throne today. If there is no auspicious time this afternoon, then the specific date and time for him to inherit the throne can be set today.

King Langya shouldn't have flirted with his courtiers in the first place, and the correct way is to let the courtiers treat him as a "lonely minister" and stay away.

Like the old prince Qin Heng who is obsessed with fireworks and willow lanes, is it not a way of a lonely minister?Qin Shouan offended a large number of people by using the red poppy ointment, but he was just doing his duty.
