first princess

Chapter 154 The Grandfather Arrives (1)
It was late at night, and the wind was biting cold.Zhuge Liuyun was sitting at the desk, carefully reading the secret reports sent by the spies, his face was livid with anger!Unexpectedly, Concubine De would take the initiative to invite favor from the emperor. He has always asked Concubine De to establish a good relationship with the empress. The emperor's favor is second, and it is fundamental to settle down in the harem. In the restoration of the family, the most important thing is the queen and the prince!

"Nonsense!" Zhuge Liuyun slammed the secret report to the ground, furiously said, "What's wrong with Concubine De? I used to hate the emperor to death, it's like a different person overnight!"

Uncle Yu handed another secret letter in his hand to Zhuge Liuyun, and said respectfully: "Xiao Anzi who is next to Concubine De once secretly contacted the people in Pingnan Hou Mansion, and Concubine De's sudden fight for favor was just after you fell into a coma after being poisoned. "

"What do you want to say?" Zhuge Liuyun frowned!

Uncle Yu has followed Zhuge Liuyun for many years, and he has single-handedly controlled all kinds of information, and his ability to analyze events is superior to others, he slowly expressed his inner thoughts: "The servant suspects that Concubine De and the people of Nanhou Mansion are the same as raccoons. The prince's poisoning is the bargaining chip that the Pingnanhou Mansion gave to Concubine De, and Concubine De should get something from Pingnanhou's Mansion, fighting for favor is just a means, the real highlight has not yet been staged."

"Pingnanhou's mansion is ambitious, and what they want is the emperor's life!" Zhuge Liuyun pressed his temple, so angry that his eyes burst into tears, "My poisoning is related to Pingnanhou's mansion, doesn't it mean... the princess and Pingnanhou The government colluded?"

Yu Bo paused, and said, "For the time being... there is no evidence."

Zhuge Liuyun didn't expect that his pillow wife... turned out to be such a snake and scorpion!Not to mention that Concubine De, who has worked with her for many years, would run into the Xun family's camp!How did all this come about?Could it be that Concubine De knew about sending someone to protect Guo Yan?If so, Concubine De should be grateful to him, if he really broke with her, he should have killed her hidden guards long ago!Seeing Uncle Yu still not leaving, he said again: "What's wrong?"

Uncle Yu handed him the last secret letter: "Shui Linglong's background has been found out."

The next day, Shui Linglong fell asleep and woke up naturally, which was the most solid sleep in so many days.Zhi Fan and Zhong's mother heard the noise, hurriedly opened the curtain and came in to serve.Mother Zhong walked to the bedside, lifted the quilt for Shui Linglong, waited for her to change her clothes, and smiled warmly: "Congratulations Miss! Did Miss rest well last night? Very good, right? Hehe..." Smile!
Zhi Fan came over with enough clothes and shoes, and also laughed: "My servant also congratulates Missy, although she is a step behind Mother Zhong, but since she is in such a good mood, Missy also credits this servant!"

Shui Linglong watched in surprise as the two of them sang together.

Zhi Fan smiled and said: "Double happiness, firstly, congratulations to the young lady and the eldest son for reconciling as before; secondly, congratulations to the eldest lady and the eldest son for giving birth to a happy crystallization!"

"That's right! I'm looking forward to a little prince!" Mother Zhong smiled while changing Shui Linglong's shirt, "According to me, the prince is also a good husband! It's hard to find such a man even with a lantern ! The most correct thing the eldest lady has done in this life is to reject the prince's marriage and marry our son! Fame, fortune and status are all floating clouds, a man's heart is the most important thing!"

Zhi Fan just wanted to laugh, but last night I don't know who said "My son is a fickle man" with snot and tears last night!

Shui Linglong recalled the embarrassing incident of Zhuge Yu burning down the small kitchen, she couldn't help laughing, but soon her expression became solemn: "The matter of the small kitchen is not allowed to be spread outside the word!" If the prince knows that his precious son cooks for women, it is not necessary. Throw her out in anger?

Zhi Fan nodded, and said happily: "Don't worry, slaves, mother Zhong, Ye Mao and slaves know what happened last night. Baimei came to ask, and slaves said that she fell asleep while stewing. I figured it out later. Er Baimei has to sue you."

Shui Linglong raised her feet so that Zhifan could put on her clothes and shoes, and said with a light smile, "Baimei is a little clever." She is pretty and smart, similar to Liu Lu back then, but much better than Liu Lu. Lu is more calm, she hopes that Baimei will file a complaint, at least to prove that Baimei has the intention to surrender, but unfortunately, she thinks that Baimei will not!
Shui Linglong glanced at Zhi Fan again, this girl has learned nothing but to suppress others: "Is Liu Lu's face better?" Very casual and ordinary tone!

Zhi Fan said without even thinking about it: "It's much better, there's no trace left."

Yesterday morning when she went to the main courtyard to visit the prince who had just woken up, there was still a finger mark on Liu Lu's face that hadn't faded away... Shui Linglong brushed off her skirt and asked with an unclear smile: "Tell me What do you think of the maids in Mohe Courtyard?"

The range is... very wide!Zhi Fan was startled for a moment, and then replied: "Since Hong Zhu left, everyone has gotten along pretty well."

Shui Linglong said again: "Liu Lu is gone, I need someone to serve tea in my house, who do you think is more suitable for promotion?"

Zhi Fan was a little confused as to why the eldest lady made such a statement, whether she was really asking her opinion or simply testing her position, she thought for a moment, and replied: "Bai Mei and Bai Ju are first-class maids, so it is reasonable to let them in. It's the most suitable, but it's a pity that the elder son said that no one but us can enter the main house. There should be no objection to choosing the elder son from the maids brought by Shang Shufu. It's a lot of courtesy. But if the room is full of servant girls from the Shangshu Mansion, if things go on like this, it will inevitably chill the hearts of the forces in the Wang Mansion... So, it's really difficult to make a choice."

Saying is tantamount to saying nothing.But Shui Linglong has already seen the desired effect from Zhifan's expression.

After Shui Linglong entered the clean room, Zhi Fan let out a long breath. During these days, the eldest lady has not restrained her, and her relationship with Zhao Yun has become closer. The reason why the eldest lady is now protecting the accompanying room is that she has not really taken charge of the family. Once the eldest lady takes charge of the family, not to mention the maids of Moheyuan, the entire inner house of the palace will belong to the eldest lady. At that time, there will be no Shangshufu in the eyes of the eldest lady. It is different from the palace, and in order to win over the power of the palace, the eldest lady will definitely use the people in the palace... What she needs to do now is to step down the difficult opponents one by one before the eldest lady takes charge of the family!But... she was hit by the eldest lady when she just started using it!Zhi Fan doesn't understand, why the eldest lady would acquiesce to Liu Lu's domineering, but not allow her to play tricks?

People are different, that girl Liu Lu only knows how to suppress others, but she doesn't know how to form cliques, and she broke Tian's lonely family. Stay close; Zhi Fan is not the case, what she is best at is to win people's hearts, if she learns Liu Lu's tricks again, Mo He Yuan will soon have a master with a dark thread, this is not the result that Shui Linglong expected.

There is no one who is absolutely useful in this world, even Anping who has been with Zhuge Yu for more than ten years was once deceived by Leng Youru and used as a spearman?Therefore, Shui Linglong had to guard against them while using them.

Shui Linglong simply had breakfast, and went to Tian'anju to greet the old lady. The strange thing was that Zhuge Liuyun was also there!

"Don't come out to blow air just after you wake up, and it's the same when we pass your yard!" The old lady sat on the kang, Zhuge Liuyun sat in a wheelchair beside her, and the mother and son held hands, so intimate that others envied others.

Zhuge Liuyun said gently: "How can there be any reason to let the mother run around? The son is well, and going out for activities is conducive to recovery."

Zhenshi, Qiao Hui, and Zhuge Shu sat on the side chairs, all with joyful smiles on their faces, Zhenshi joked: "My lord is so happy! Once I am happy, I can't sit still!"

The old matriarch was stunned for a moment, and then an astonishing gleam flashed in his eyes: "You should be happy, you should be happy! Have you sent someone to notify the Shangshufu?"

Mrs. Zhen said: "Notice, I just left."

The old matriarch nodded: "Although the biological mother passed away, the aunt and father are still alive after all, and it is their duty to inform them of the good news first."

Zhuge Liuyun's eyes flickered, but he didn't speak.

The old matriarch said again: "I heard that Mrs. Shui had a stroke. I don't know if she is better? Linglong was favored by Mrs. Shui before she came out of the pavilion. Now that she is sick, Linglong feels uncomfortable. Let Dr. Hu go in the afternoon Let’s go to Shangshu Mansion and show Mrs. Shui.”

Zhen Shi glanced at Zhuge Liuyun, seeing that he was happy and did not object, she said respectfully: "Okay, I'll do it later."

"Old Majesty, the concubine is here." Ping'er reported at the door.

Everyone in the room fell silent, as if they were holding their breath.Shui Linglong walked in slowly, all eyes fell on her belly, her face blushed slightly, she walked over to salute the old lady, the prince and Zhen Shi: "Grandma, father, two aunt."

Qiao Hui and Zhuge Shu bent their knees and said, "Sister-in-law." There were joyful smiles in their eyes!
The old lady beckoned to Shui Linglong, and Shui Linglong went to sit beside the old lady, and the old lady touched her stomach, grinning from ear to ear, but with a trace of uncertain inquiry: " Have it? Really have it?"

Shui Linglong lowered her head and smiled: "Yes, yes."

"Hahaha... See what else Mrs. Yao can do in front of me? I also have a great-grandson!" The old lady patted Shui Linglong's hand and said with great admiration, "You and Yu'er really did a great job this time. Alright! This is the first great-grandson of our Zhuge family in this generation!"

Zhuge Liuyun has only one son, and Zhuge Liufeng has many heirs, but only Prince An is married, and the rest are either dependent relatives or have not yet reached the crown.

Zhuge Liuyun spread out his palm, revealing a very delicate purple gold lock with gourd pattern, and smiled warmly at Shui Linglong: "Give it to my precious grandson."

Shui Linglong was flattered!It's been more than five months since passing through the door, and this is the first time Zhuge Liuyun smiled at her!Moreover, unexplainably, Shui Linglong felt that Zhuge Liuyun looked at her with too much emotion in his eyes, and it was not negative.Is this the legendary mother is more expensive than the child?Conquering the doubts in her heart, Shui Linglong walked up to Zhuge Liuyun, took the golden lock with both hands, and bowed respectfully: "Thank you, Father."

Zhuge Liuyun smiled with satisfaction!
Zhen said with a smile: "Linglong has made a good start in the New Year!" After finishing speaking, she glanced at Qiao Hui with a smile.

Qiao Hui lowered her eyes shyly, and looked at Shui Linglong again, with joy from the bottom of her heart on her face: "Congratulations, sister-in-law! I hope sister-in-law is the same as elder sister, with one child and two babies, both brothers!"

Everyone in the room laughed!The old lady compared her fingers: "No, no, what's so rare about twin sons? I want twins!"

Zhuge Shu yelled: "Isn't it? How rare are dragon and phoenix twins!"

The old lady was shocked: "It's not that our Zhuge family has no twins, back then..."

As soon as I said this, the old matriarch realized that he had slipped his tongue. Looking at Zhuge Liuyun and Zhen Shi, their faces became unattractive, especially Zhuge Liuyun, whose eyes were almost bursting into flames. Taijun stuck out his tongue resentfully, and lowered his voice, "Everything is fine, everything is fine..."

Shui Linglong had a panoramic view of the expressions of the old matriarch, Zhuge Liuyun and Zhen Shi, and blinked suspiciously!So is Qiao Hui!On the other hand, Zhuge Shu spoke innocently and said innocently: "Has anyone in our Zhuge family ever had twins? Who is it? Why don't I know?"

"Ahem!" Zhen Shi and Qiao Hui coughed at the same time!
Zhuge Shu was young, so she didn't take it too seriously: "What's wrong with you? Are you all sick? Or did I say something wrong?"

Mrs. Zhen regretted letting her daughter out. This natural troublemaker doesn't talk about offending the king of the county, and doesn't talk about running on Qiao Hui, but even the old lady dare not touch the taboo of the prince. Zhuge Shu...why? dare?
Sure enough, Zhuge Liuyun's face darkened, and he blessed the old lady: "My son is a little tired, so I will come back another day to say hello to my mother."

The old lady wanted to slap herself a few times, why did she get carried away when she was happy?Seeing Zhuge Liuyun being pushed out of the door by Uncle Yu, she leaned on the Sixi pillow in frustration.

After leaving Tiananju, Qiao Hui helped Mrs. Zhen back to the Xianglan Courtyard, and Zhuge Xi went to the back garden. Thinking that King An was not in the mansion, Mrs. Zhen let her go.

Entering the main house, Qiao Hui took the tea from Liuzhu and offered it to Mrs. Zhen herself. Mrs. Zhen held it in her hand with a smile: "During these days, does Ming'er love you?"

Qiao Hui blushed and said, "Thank you for your advice, my husband treats me very well." She changed the furnishing style of the room according to Zhen's preferences, removed all the magnificent gold objects, and placed exquisite and elegant decorations on them. The jade... When the former prince came back from court, she was always working as a female celebrity, but now she is practicing calligraphy or painting. The prince couldn't hold back several times and asked her directly during the day...

Zhen took a sip of tea and smiled comfortably: "Don't be too envious of Linglong, the county king only loves you right now, and you will have children soon!"

Qiao Hui said softly: "What mother said is true!" But in her heart, she was a little complicated. On the one hand, she really wanted to have a child of her own;Why doesn't she envy sister-in-law?The story of the eldest brother chasing Bai Fumei away, wearing a middle coat, and taking his sister-in-law back to Moheyuan from the Buddhist hall has already spread widely. How many men are there in this world who are so dedicated and affectionate?

Mrs. Zhen glanced at her, and said with a half-smile, "Some blessings look great, but the price of enjoying them is also high. Not everyone can afford the muddy water of the long house!"

Qiao Hui's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly suppressed the envy she shouldn't have, and asked, "By the way, mother, I just noticed that when the old matriarch and Shu'er were talking about twins, the prince's mood was not right. Why?"

Mrs. Zhen sighed quietly: "Oh! Why? Isn't that Qingluan gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twins? The son is the one you saw, daughter..." Qiao Hui pricked up her ears, but Mrs. Zhen said nothing .

On the other side, Shui Linglong was also trying her best to find out about Zhuge Liuyun's taboos, she looked around and made sure no one whispered to Zhifan: "How have you been walking with Hu Po recently?"

Zhi Fan smiled confidently: "Amber was very guarded at the beginning, and after a few times with her, she started talking with her slaves."

Shui Linglong twirled the tassels around her waist: "The old matriarch just rewarded a lot of fresh pastries, all of which were bought by the prince from outside, you give Amber a box, and by the way, ask her who in Zhuge's family gave birth to dragons and phoenixes fetal."

"Yes!"

The news of Shui Linglong's pregnancy soon spread to Shangshu Mansion and Yao Mansion. Qin Fangyi first went to Tian'anju to visit the old matriarch. Yes, I am very grateful to Qin Fangyi in my heart, so I treated Qin Fangyi very kindly: "...Lao's grandma came here in person, I am really sorry, I should let Linglong go back to her mother's house to have a few days with you, but I can't bear to part with this child, I feel uncomfortable leaving her, thank you so much for giving me such a good granddaughter-in-law..."

Qin Fangyi smiled and said, "Don't say that, Mrs. Madam! I'm the one who feels sorry for you. The old lady is sick in bed, and the imperial doctor didn't make much difference. Dr. Hu gave the old lady acupuncture and moxibustion today. The old lady was able to spit out one or two words immediately, and my husband and I were so happy that we said that the doctor of the palace is Hua Tuo alive!"

The old lady frowned with a smile.Qin Fangyi saw that the old lady was happy, and her flattery came one after another: "Speaking of Linglong, I like her a hundred times in my heart! Although she didn't grow up by my side, she fell in love with me. The first time I saw her, I immediately liked her." She is treated like my own daughter! Otherwise, in such a good marriage, how could I bypass the noble concubine's fourth girl and settle on her directly? Didn't I really hope that she would have a good life!"

The old matriarch was amused, and hurriedly ordered Ping'er to take a set of purple-gold and ruby ​​heads and gave it to Qin Fangyi, then patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, grandma, Linglong will never be wronged in the palace. If you dare to give her anger, I will not be the first to get around!"

Qin Fangyi happily took the purple-gold-ruby head, a trace of astonishment flashed in her eyes, and she was stunned in astonishment after hearing the old lady's assurance.Thinking of the scene where she visited Mrs. Pingnanhou, and comparing it with the one in front of her, she secretly sighed, Shui Linglong... really married well!I'm so sorry!
