Chapter 115 The Wrath of Emperor Yuanchang

It was dusk when we returned to Shengchang Hou Mansion, and the golden slanting photos filled the bluestone path in front of Yuanyang Pavilion like a brocade.When Dong Yuan and Qiangwei came back, Mrs. Sheng asked her if she had dinner.

Dong Yuan smiled: "Not yet, I'm not very hungry, I don't have much appetite."

Mrs. Sheng smiled and said, "It's hot, and I don't have much appetite, so I asked the kitchen to make lotus rice porridge, and you can eat some at my place before going back."

Dong Yuan hurriedly expressed his thanks, and returned to Jingsheyuan after having dinner in Mrs. Sheng's yard.

After taking a shower and changing into a clean and light undergarment, Dong Yuan leaned on the big kang by the window to read the book "Six Secret Teachings" left by Sheng Xiuyi.

When Luo's mother came in, Dong Yuan put down the book and let all the maids go down, leaving only Luo's mother, and said with a smile: "You stay with me tonight."

Luo's mother touched her loose blue hair, and looked at her with pity as she did when she was a child: "Okay, mom will sleep with sister Yuan."

The maids stopped coming, and Mother Luo called her Sister Yuan, the same as when she was at her mother's house.

Mother Luo asked Dongyuan again what was interesting about Wugu's grandma coming home today.

Dong Yuan told about Xiao Xuanqin.

Mother Luo's expression darkened: "Miss Fifth was really bewildered at the time. She was desperate to marry such a person. Sister Yuan, do you think it is retribution? People are doing it, and the sky is watching. If you do something against your will, God will keep accounts. "

Dong Yuan smiled.

Luo's mother sighed for Xue Dongrong, remembered something, hesitated for a moment before asking: "Miss Fifth came out of the cabinet... I don't know if the third young master has come back..."

The third young master refers to Xue Huaxuan, Dong Yuan's third cousin.

Why did mother Luo ask him so well?

"I'm back. Qiangwei's eldest brother is with the third brother, and I heard that he has returned to Shengjing this time. Qiangwei will take a half-day leave tomorrow." Dong Yuan laughed, "Mom, why do you ask the third brother?"

Luo's mother smiled reluctantly: "Miss Fifth is the younger sister of the third young master, so I remembered to ask..."

Dong Yuan thought of today's grandmother saying that Luo's mother was originally serving the eldest grandma to give birth, and then she also took a fancy to her, and wanted her to be the wet nurse of the eldest granddaughter Xue Huarui.

And mother Luo declined.

"Mom, why didn't you want to be a wet nurse for Sister Rui?" Dong Yuan asked directly.

Mother Luo was horrified, she took Dong Yuan's hand in astonishment: "Who told you about this?"

There was a slight ripple in Dong Yuan's eyes, and he said: "It's grandma...Mom, I may have a body..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Mother Luo suddenly changed her mood from astonishment to joy and said, "Sister Yuan, are you pregnant?"

As he spoke, he looked at Dong Yuan.

Dong Yuan nodded, and told Mother Luo the diagnosis of the imperial physician invited by the Xue family.

Mother Luo clasped her hands together and recited Amitabha Buddha repeatedly: "The ancestors bless you, and the Bodhisattva bless you." Then she asked, "Have you talked to your wife?"

Dong Yuan shook his head.

The joy on Luo's mother's face lightened a bit: "...Sister Yuan, you have been whispering to Qiangwei these days, and mother didn't ask. Why didn't you tell Madam about your pregnancy? This is not a happy event ?”

If you tell Mother Luo about the strange frailty of the Sheng family heirs, it will be just one more person to worry about her.Although Luo's mother lives in the Sheng family, she may not have noticed why the Sheng family has so few children.

Besides, Mama Luo is kind and gentle, so she can't help much, so Dong Yuan decided not to say anything, and said: "I was diagnosed three days ago... I think I will tell Madam after another month, when the fetal position is stable. Don't say it too early, Madam Thought I was asking for a reward."

Mother Luo frowned.

She probably felt that Dong Yuan was too cautious, but she didn't refute her again.

"...Grandmother wants me to tell Madam, please put a mother who knows how to give birth by my side. I said you understand very well. Grandmother and Mother Zhan only talked about letting you serve my sister-in-law back then." Dong Yuan changed the topic again. Turning back, "Mom, why are you..."

"Sister Yuan!" Luo's mother squeezed Dong Yuan's hand heavily and interrupted her, "There are some things that my mother doesn't want to say... You know, our family lives in the same house for several generations, and we live in several rooms in a big house. There are always some bad things in the yard. If you see it, it will rot in your heart...don't ask this question again. "

What unclean thing did mother Luo see in the sister-in-law's room?

Dong Yuan's heart skipped a beat.

Mother Luo first asked the third young master Xue Huaxuan, and then Dong Yuan talked about the eldest sister-in-law Hang, her expression was instantly shocked.

It's really not a good thing, Dong Yuan guessed vaguely, he didn't want to know anymore.She smiled: "I won't ask in the future."

******
The scorching summer is like running fire, and the autumn wind can't stand it. In a blink of an eye, it's the end of August when the crabs are fat and the sweet-scented osmanthus is yellow.

Sheng Xiuyi walked for fifty days before arriving at the Northwest Camp.

And Dong Yuan vomited it up when he went to greet Mrs. Sheng in the morning, and Mrs. Sheng and Kang's mother saw the flaw and knew that she was pregnant.

Dong Yuan didn't hide anymore, and told Mrs. Sheng about her pregnancy, but felt uneasy.

She wanted to know what attitude Sheng Changhou had.

Later, one day, I ran into Sheng Changhou in the middle of nowhere.

He didn't have the cold face that Dong Yuan had imagined, and it was rare for him to say to her gently: "If you feel unwell, just come and say hello every three days. Giving birth to a grandson well is a great filial piety to us."

There was no affectation in his tone and expression, as if he was very happy.

Dong Yuan has a body after entering the door. This is not only her blessing, but also a sign of the prosperity of the entire Sheng family.Sheng Changhou's joy does not seem to be fake.

Then the reason why the descendants of the Sheng family are weak...

Isn't it really natural?

Together with this idea, Dong Yuan felt unreliable.There are so many people in the Sheng family, why is it so unlucky, apart from Sheng Xiuyi's child, only the second grandmother, Ge Shi, has a seven-year-old daughter.

How is it that other people are born barren?
Dong Yuan thought about it, and made up his mind to investigate this matter.At first she thought it was Sheng Changhou, but now...she was a little uncertain about her judgment.

Aunt Lin of the Marquis of Shengchang made a fuss and was sent to the farm, where she died of illness within two months.When Mrs. Sheng told Dong Yuan, her tone was a bit sad: "The two of them are one year younger than your second sibling, and they are good-looking. They never have children, and they are not at ease. Master Hou is getting old every day. Now, they are always afraid that Brother Yi will neglect them in the future, and they have recently started to make trouble. Sending Aunt Lin away is also to hope that Aunt Lin can be more peaceful... Who knows, Master Hou is still afraid that they will be restless... Big My aunt is not as smart as my second aunt, but she has a good heart..."

Although Madam Sheng's meaning was very cryptic, Dong Yuan could tell that Sheng Changhou killed Aunt Lin just to frighten Aunt Lin.Either those who have no heirs live in the Sheng family; if they have the wrong idea of ​​wanting heirs, they are dead.

Dong Yuan didn't say anything, and couldn't help but wonder what kind of person her father-in-law was.

During the period of her marriage, it can be seen that although Mrs. Sheng is soft-tempered, Sheng Changhou respects her, and has the same respect as ordinary young couples and old companions.

This point changed Dong Yuan's view of Sheng Changhou.He is not a concubine spoiler, and he is good to Mrs. Sheng.

Maybe I had a bad first impression at the beginning, so I completely rejected Sheng Changhou, thinking that he has no redeeming qualities.

The two aunts Lin in the Marquis of Shengchang's house had no children, and Dong Yuan could already confirm from the fact that Marquis Shengchang killed Aunt Lin that he was the one who did it.

But the second master Sheng Xiuhai and the brothers of the two uncles' families have no heirs. Is it really directly related to Sheng Changhou?

Thinking about it, Dong Yuan took out 300 taels of silver and asked Qiangwei to secretly exchange the cash.

She wants to use money to buy people from Tongsheng's family and find out why each house has no children.

There can be no further delay.

*************
In the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, food was given to the families of the royal relatives and relatives.When Mrs. Sheng entered the palace to thank her, she told Concubine Sheng that Dong Yuan was pregnant when she entered the door.

Concubine Sheng told Emperor Yuanchang about this.

Coming out of Concubine Sheng's palace, Emperor Yuanchang returned to the imperial study and smashed a crystal paperweight on the desk to the ground.

Seeing the emperor getting angry, Lou Youde, the chief eunuch, and a group of eunuchs serving in the imperial study all fell to their knees, trembling, for fear that something bad would happen.

"How dare he, how dare he!" When Lou Youde heard that the inkstone on the desk was smashed to the ground again, Emperor Yuanchang's voice was like thunder, and he repeatedly said with hatred, "How dare he".

The eunuchs kowtowed their heads to the ground, not daring to say anything.

Who would dare?

"...I made it so obvious that he pretended to be stupid, how dare he..." Emperor Yuanchang angrily trampled on the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, books, and memorials on the desk.

When he calmed down, the imperial study room was full of mess.

Lou Youde and a dozen young eunuchs were still kneeling, and no one dared to ask the emperor to appease his anger.

Emperor Yuanchang sat on the chair, pinching the armrest of the chair with his hands, his ashen face couldn't turn back for a long time.

Lou Youde didn't know how the little eunuch felt, his legs were numb from kneeling.The chiming bell on the wall rang, and Lou Youde knew that Emperor Yuanchang had been silent for half an hour.

He had the courage to ask in a low voice: "Your Majesty..."

"Lou Youde, when did Princess Wenjing's son-in-law celebrate his birthday?" Emperor Yuanchang asked with a hint of urgency in his voice.

Lou Youde hurriedly said: "April 28 this year, Your Majesty."

"April 28th...April [-]th..." Emperor Yuanchang suddenly stood up, with an unconcealable smile in his voice, paced back and forth, and said suddenly, "...a good stab."

Lou Youde was confused, but when he heard Emperor Yuanchang say "good stabbing", he remembered that Emperor Yuanchang came back from Princess Wenjing's mansion, and his arm was stabbed with blood dripping with something.

April 28 is the birthday of Princess Wenjing's son-in-law.

So what day is April [-]?
He tried hard to think about it, but he still couldn't remember what day April [-]th was.

"It's only been eight days, who can tell?" Lou Youde heard the smiling voice of Emperor Yuanchang, and looked up, only to see a strange look on the young emperor's face.

It's like getting a rare treasure.

When he came back suddenly, he was furious, and then suddenly happy.Except for Taifu Xiao, Lou Youde couldn't think of anything else that could make Emperor Yuanchang's mood change so abnormally.

But Emperor Yuanchang just said "he dared" and said "April [-]". What happened?

"Get up." Emperor Yuanchang said in a deep voice, "Clean up this place. If the queen mother hears anything about today's incident, you will all be punished with death."
