Chapter 222
Before setting off the next day, Haitang and Ling Shuang changed into men's clothing, which would make them less conspicuous and make their movements easier.

After Haitang changed her clothes, she kept pulling on her belt and asked, "Ruitang, do you think I've gained weight? My waist seems to have become thicker."

"A handful of bones, what's so good about it? It's better to be fatter, and it feels better in the hand. I like it! Hey! You can beat the prince too!" Then nothing more happened.

After entering Jingzhou and walking towards Xiangyang, the junction is Jingxiang Mountain District.There was no need to worry about getting lost along the way. Following the sparse line of refugees, they soon arrived at the town. There were many people in the town, but it was not a big place and there were only one or two decent inns.Soon, they found Shen Congxi.

Shen Congxi came downstairs and saw that even the Crown Princess had come in person. She couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. She clasped her fists and said, "Cong Xi is ashamed. I didn't protect the Young General, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess. I will wait until Cong Xi finds Han Bai before I receive the punishment!"

Haitang laughed and said: "How can I blame you, my brother has a bullish temper, once he gets stubborn, ten cows can't be pulled back. You are not enough to fight him, how can you protect him? It is obviously none of your business, there is no punishment. collar?"

"How are the refugees in the mountainous area?" Xie Ruitang asked as he walked in: "We came all the way and saw many refugees gathering here, and the security was not very good. The Huguang Governor's Office was ruthless when it came to collecting money, and something went wrong. , and we can't come up with an effective solution. We have some money left in the two lakes, but this is just a drop in the bucket."

"General Wan has ordered the refugees to move out of the mountainous area within half a month, but those who came out asked them to work as slaves for the men and as prostitutes for the women. Only young and old can leave and return to their hometowns. As a result, the 150 million refugees will not be able to come out. To two or three out of ten." Shen Congxi frowned and said:

"I'm afraid everyone thinks that the law does not blame the public, but they don't know that their 'public' is like ants in the eyes of some people. Now there are only five days left, and Wan Qing has ordered that after five days, no matter what is inside How many people will burn the mountain immediately, fearing that corpses will be everywhere again."

"Then I only have five days to go find my brother?" Haitang had just finished asking this question, and a wave of nausea suddenly surged in her chest. She paused in her heart, and then continued to surge up. This feeling... She calmed down and thought Thinking about it, he froze and blurted out: "No!"

"Don't worry. No matter if there is any news from Han Bai within five days, I will go to Wan Qing to stop him from setting fire to the mountain." Xie Ruitan comforted her.Although he himself knew that the king's orders would not be accepted even if he was away from home, not to mention that he was the prince that Wan Qing and his gang wanted to suppress.

At that time, not only here, but even the capital will inevitably have some ups and downs.If Cao Baoli and the others took advantage of this opportunity to make a move, they would not be sure of winning.

Haitang felt another wave of nausea. She rubbed the Neiguan point on her wrist with her fingers. She tried hard to control herself, stood up and hurriedly walked out of the house.Xie Ruitang also noticed that something was wrong with her expression, so he chased her out and asked repeatedly: "What's wrong? What's wrong with you? Did you catch a cold? Do you want to go back to your room and take a rest?"

Haitang held on to the railing and finally retched for a while, but didn't spit out anything, but felt much better.She looked up, tears welling in her eyes.Xie Ruitang was startled and quickly held her in his arms: "Haitang, don't scare me! Are you feeling uncomfortable? Don't cry, I'll call the doctor right away."

"I am a doctor myself, why should I hire a doctor? I'm not crying. These tears are squeezed out and have no salty taste. If you don't believe me, try it." Haitang chuckled. She raised her hand and stroked Xie gently. Ruitang's face said softly: "Fool, we are going to have a child."

"We are going to have... a child? Are you embarrassed?" Xie Ruitang was surprised and delighted, but he couldn't believe it. He stretched out a finger and touched Haitang's belly carefully. Pushing his hand away, he said angrily: "Stupid! It's only been two months, where can I find it?" "You can't always call me stupid, the child will hear it." Xie Ruitang suddenly jumped up and said seriously: "You're still running around while you're pregnant? We'll go back to Beijing right away, no no! You'll just stay in Jingzhou City, you can't go anywhere! I'll call Tang Yu over right away! Call the imperial physician!"

For a moment, Xie Ruitang was so happy that he became a headless fly.

Shuang'er, who was following next to her, danced with excitement after hearing this. After the two got married, they either went to the grasslands to fight or fell into the water for adventures, and they never lived in peace. She and the Crown Princess didn't notice when the child came.Seeing that the two of them were still hugging each other and refusing to let go, Shuang'er simply turned around and ran into the house to announce: "Our Crown Princess is happy!"

The men in the room were all stunned: What's going on?According to legend, the children in the palace are delicate, and if you touch them casually, you won't be able to keep them?The princess is pregnant, so she can still come all the way to Jingxiang?
Haitang went back to the room with the smiling Shuang'er.Just now, she told Xie Ruitang that rubbing the Neiguan point could stop vomiting, so he grabbed her hand and rubbed it vigorously. Knowing that he was worried, she had to take better care of herself and the child in her belly.She was going to write a prescription for miscarriage and let Shuang'er get the medicine.

Xie Ruitang returned to the house with a smirk on his face.Yan Shishi and Shen Congxi took a look, yes!Youxi didn't get away with this matter. "I'm going to be the father!" After saying that, Xie Ruitang was still grinning from ear to ear, and continued to say stupidly: "The father is me, the father of the child."

Yan Shiyi couldn't stand it anymore and advised: "Calm down, calm down! You have to find the Crown Princess's brother quickly so that he can give birth to your child with peace of mind, right?"

Xie Ruitang also came to his senses: "Yes, time is running out. While there is still time today, we will go to the cliff to see the situation immediately." He returned to the room, but Haitang and Shuang'er were not there.I was looking for him anxiously when I just walked downstairs and ran into the master and servant.

"Let's go, I'm ready. Time is running out, now it's still dawn and we can check." Haitang said calmly.

Xie Ruitang lost his composure: "You can't go! You're pregnant with a child! I don't know how much I regret bringing you here. Just stay well, Shen Congxi has sent a message back, and Tang Yu will be here in two days."

"I'm a doctor, and I know my own body best. I just prescribed anti-fetal medicine for myself. If I don't ride a horse, I'll be fine. You leave me in the town. There are many homeless people in the town, and it's not peaceful. The two of us are separated. I'm not at ease, and you aren't at ease either, are you?" Haitang dragged Xie Ruitang to the side of the carriage, and pointed it out to him.

What she meant by "getting ready" was adding two more mattresses to the carriage.Xie Ruitang also didn't want to be separated from Haitang, but he was not sure about the woman's pregnancy, so he nodded hesitantly.

Because, if he left Haitang in the town, he would also be unsure.
