Nagato has such a slim waist

Chapter 575: Love is Not Over
Feng Yun smiled and said, "I thought you would ask me why I kept it from you?"

"I know, I know everything." Pei Jue stroked her back with his palm and whispered, "It was so hard to get this child. He is so delicate, there is no room for any mistakes."

After hesitating for a moment, his expression became more serious.

"Yunniang is right. The situation in the court is complicated. For the safety of the child, we have to continue this play."

Feng Yun curled her lips and slowly narrowed her eyes.

"it is good."

Children born into a royal family do not have it any easier than those born into ordinary families.

Not to mention the distant past, in the palace of the previous dynasty, there were many innocent princes who died tragically, died in the deep palace without anyone noticing, and became victims of the oppression of imperial power...

What Pei Jue said was also what Feng Yun wanted.

She originally thought it would take some effort to convince Pei Jue.

Unexpectedly, he brought it up himself.

At this moment, the warmth Feng Yun felt in her heart far exceeded the joy of reunion.

Even without mentioning other things, the shared experience of "living a new life" between her and Pei Jue is something that others cannot understand, and only the two of them in the world can understand it.

This tacit understanding is unique.

The four of them looked into each other's eyes, and no further explanation was even needed.

Moving the capital to Andu, under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for Feng Yun to avoid some interpersonal interactions. If nothing unexpected happens, starting from tomorrow, even if Feng Yun does not go to Andu, many people will visit Changmen.

If it was the wife of another prince or minister, it would be fine. If she refused to see him, no one could force her, and at most it would offend others.

But what about the princess and others?

Repeated refusal makes people feel that there is something fishy going on.

Pei Jue's arrival perfectly solved her concerns.
-
Pei Jue left before dawn without disturbing anyone.

During the first early period after the capital was moved, Pei Cong issued an oral order on the grounds that Feng Yun "refused to receive the imperial carriage and did not respect the emperor", ordering Feng Yun to "be confined to Changmen and reflect on his mistakes."

This instruction is very clever.

It naturally prevented Feng Yun from contacting outsiders, and also appropriately announced the emperor's "helplessness" towards his beloved wife, so that others would not dare to bully Feng Yun just because she was under house arrest...

After all, she even ignored the emperor and only confined him to his house.

That oral instruction was more of a punishment for Feng Yun than a punishment for himself. Their behavior was just like a normal young couple throwing a tantrum.

She moved the capital to Andu, but no one gave her a good face. If she didn't get angry, wouldn't she be laughed at?

It's not that the emperor doesn't love her. It's obvious that he loves her so much that he doesn't know what to do.

Everyone was curious about how long the emperor's curfew would last.

In other words, everyone is waiting to see which of the couple will give in first.

However, things turned out to be beyond everyone's expectations.

From that day on, Feng Yun really did not step out of Changmen, and Pei Jue was also absorbed in the affairs of the court and government affairs in the days that followed, as if he had completely forgotten about the house arrest order...

There were one or two officials who were eager to create chaos in the world and took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and try to insert women into the emperor's side. Not only were they reprimanded, they also almost lost their jobs.

The emperor angrily rebuked: "You are busy all day long, like flies clinging to meat. Such mediocre people are just hanging around in the court. Why don't you go home and farm?"

Giving beauties to the emperor, having children and descendants, and having descendants were considered "scheming" and "mediocrity".

This silenced all the court officials who had been urging the emperor to take in new people.

The majesty, methods, wisdom, and long-accumulated fear of the founding emperor made people dare not act rashly...

After all, Pei Jue's reputation as a killer was known to everyone in the world.

If he is really pushed to the limit, "going home to farm" would probably be a luxury.

About a month passed like this, and surprisingly, the person who first asked Pei Jue to lift Feng Yun's house arrest order was Tang Shaogong.

After Pei Jue became emperor, Tang Shaogong was appointed as the fourth-rank official of the Ministry of Rites. It was a high position, and the salary and benefits were not low, which was worthy of his merits. When the current Minister of the Ministry of Rites, who was already over 60 years old, retired, he could be promoted to the next level and be ranked among the Nine Ministers.

According to Pei Jue, Tang Shaogong should live out his days in peace and contentment from now on.

The Taichang Temple is in charge of ancestral temple sacrifices, rituals and music, etc., which is not Tang Shaogong's ambition. At his age, he doesn't want to retire...

But he knew that this was a warning from Pei Jue.

Without any excuse, he happily took up the job and behaved himself.

But today, he didn't know where he got the courage from, but he was determined to stand up for Feng Yun.

"Feng Twelve Niang is your majesty's legal wife. She has been confined to Huaxi for a long time. There are many people who criticize her. I think it is a disgrace to the royal family. I hope your majesty will show mercy and forgive her this time."

Pei Jue looked at him and pursed his lips again and again.

"I don't need you to worry about my family affairs."

Tang Shaogong said: "Your Majesty's family affairs are also state affairs. If Your Majesty is not convenient to speak, why not let me go to Huaxi to negotiate?"

Pei Jue asked: "Is the Taichang Temple too idle? Or do you also want to go back to your hometown to farm?"

Tang Shaogong quickly bowed his head and apologized, "I know I was wrong."

Tang Shaogong's request for an imperial decree failed, and the ministers in the court became more determined. It seemed that the emperor really wanted to teach Feng Shier Niang a lesson and not let her take advantage of his favor and become arrogant.

The old ministers were very pleased and cried with joy.

Between the country and the beauty, Your Majesty finally chose the country...
-
At the end of December, the wind was cold and cold.

It’s the New Year again.

Perhaps because Feng Yun was under house arrest, the New Year atmosphere in Changmen this year was particularly weak. Grandma Han was in charge of the New Year's shopping, and the servants pasted the word "Fu" on the doors and windows, but they were too lazy and sighed at every turn.

My lady has been under house arrest for several months, but His Majesty has shown no intention of letting her go.

In their view, "not going to welcome the emperor" is just an excuse.

In the final analysis, it was still related to the rumors outside - the emperor was wary of Nagato's troops, and was afraid that the lady would become powerful and take the opportunity to warn her, so he wanted her to disband her troops on her own initiative, or to recruit them later...

Everyone is so worried, how can they think about celebrating the New Year?
The closer we get to New Year’s Eve, the more stories there are.

Feng Yun ignored all that, eating well and sleeping soundly every day, making up for the fatigue of the past few years...

She found all the books about pregnancy and parenting left by her mother.

From diet, sleep to exercise, everything is meticulous.

So after a few months, although her body became heavy, she was full of energy, her skin was white, tender, and as delicate as if she had no bones. Every time Pei Jue came for a night meeting, he wished he could die on her... Pei Jue also spent last night in Changmen.

Leave before dawn, without anyone noticing.

After he left, Feng Yun took another nap. When she woke up, she found that it was already daybreak and it was drizzling outside.

I don't know which careless guy didn't close the doors and windows properly, and the wind came in through the gaps, making it very cold.

Feng Yun wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and was about to call Xiaoman to close the window when she heard a call that only appeared in dreams.

"Is your Majesty risen yet? I am here to pay my respects to you."

Feng Yun felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his heartbeat was beating violently in his chest like a drum.

At this moment, all my senses were overwhelmed by the sudden shock, and my breathing stopped.

Is she dreaming?
Awake or in a dream?
She dug her nails into her thighs but felt no pain.

Only trembling.

She had been shaking with excitement.

"Qu'er..."

"Qu'er!"

The curtains moved slightly.

A thin little boy walked around the screen and came to her couch, followed by a smiling woman in palace dress.

"Your Highness, His Highness got up early today and has been waiting outside for half an hour, just waiting to pay his respects to Your Highness."

Feng Yun looked at her.

This is Qu'er's wet nurse, who treats him very kindly.

However, she was beaten to death by Feng Ying on the pretext of something when Qu'er was three years old. When she got the news and rushed over, her body was nowhere to be found. She heard that she was wrapped in a straw mat, put on a cart used to clean up night incense, and sent out of the palace.

Feng Yun looked at her in disbelief, then at Qu'er.

"You...why are you here?"

The nurse smiled gently and glanced at Qu'er, "Your Highness."

Qu'er responded and bowed politely to Feng Yun.

There was moisture on the ends of his hair, his complexion was soft and warm, and his entire face was covered with a layer of mist-like moisture, white and soft, as if he had walked out of an ink painting.

"I heard that the Queen Mother was not feeling well and was very worried. I came here impatiently at daybreak, but did I disturb the Queen Mother's peace?"

"Don't bother me, don't bother me. You came at the right time. Mother is thinking about you, too. She is thinking about you all the time."

Feng Yun wanted to lift the quilt and tell him that she would give him a younger brother or sister, but her body seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and she couldn't get up.

She stretched out her hand to Qu'er, "Come, dear child, come to your mother... Your mother wants to talk to you."

Qu'er smiled slightly, bowed, and his voice sounded a little lonely.

"Please forgive me for my rudeness, mother. There is a difference between Yin and Yang, and between humans and ghosts... I dare not get close to you, mother. I can only watch from afar..."

"Qu'er..."

Feng Yun's tears flowed down like beads falling from a string, and she sobbed.

"Don't be sad, mother..." Qu'er sighed.

He is still a child, but he behaves like an adult.

"It's almost time for me to go. Take care, mother!"

"Qu'er!" Feng Yun stretched out his hand, wanting to grab him, grab him desperately.

"return."

She didn't want to let Qu'er go.

Don't want him to leave.

Scream at the top of your lungs.

Unfortunately, it was as if someone had pinched my throat, and the sound I made was as weak as the buzz of a mosquito...

"Come back! Qu'er!"

Qu'er slowly stepped back, looking at her and smiling all the time.

"The bond between you and me as mother and son has not yet ended. I will come to see you again. Take care, mother!"

He waved.

Slowly, waving.

The nanny was right next to me, smiling all the time.

"Qu'er!"

Feng Yun's stiff body suddenly trembled, and he sat up from the couch, sweating all over, his cheeks already wet with tears.

There is nothing in front of me.

The candlelight flickered.

It's still dark.

The drizzle outside is like drops of water.

"My wife..." Xiaoman heard the noise and hurried in. What he saw was her face with tears streaming down her face.

"What's wrong, lady? What's going on?"

Feng Yun frowned in pain, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen. She had experience in childbirth, and her face changed. She immediately held her abdomen and gritted her teeth to give orders.

"Call the midwife in!"

"Notify Doctor Yao."

"Seal off Nagato Yard."

"...Let Ye break into the palace and look for His Majesty."

Feng Yun: Tell me, is this a boy or a girl?
Pei Jue: I like both men and women.

Reader: We want both men and women.
