Chapter 741 Afterword Surprise (1)
Hearing this, Wei Yuhua's face showed a rare frown. Chunxuan saw her, and interjected with a smile: "Mrs. Ling doesn't know, but our mother was diagnosed to be pregnant for three months. It's just that it's during the national mourning period, so it's not appropriate to make a public announcement, so not many people know about it."

No wonder just now when she saw that her teacup seemed to be filled with clear water, Lu Mingxuan hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Congratulations, Empress Empress, congratulations, Empress Empress!"

Since she has been pregnant for three months, she was born before the great chaos in Beijing, and she is not afraid of being criticized by civil and military officials and all people in the world. On the contrary, other concubines cannot conceive in these three years. It's a male fetus. After three years, it will be over two years old. She has two legitimate sons in her hands. What else is there to be afraid of?

Wei Yuhua blushed, "There have been a lot of trivial things these days, I always thought it was because I was too tired, which caused the menstrual disorder, or when the emperor came over for dinner, I couldn't control myself from throwing up, so I called the imperial doctor to see, Fang knew."

"Madam Ling doesn't know," Chunxuan said with a smile, "The emperor was very happy, and said that in order to let the empress rest assured, why not leave all the affairs of the six palaces to the empress dowager for the time being, or the empress insists that she can handle it well." Come on, the emperor just gave up, and just said to be happy with the empress, our empress has finally come to the end of all hardships!"

The emperor didn't mention letting Concubine Shun and Jiang Guipin assist the sixth palace, but said that Mrs. Xiao would be in charge later, which shows that he really cares about Wei Yuhua now.

Lu Mingxuan was naturally happy for Wei Yuhua, and the two mothers exchanged parenting lessons for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, it was time to leave the palace, so Lu Mingxuan hurriedly talked about Princess Baoyi, "...and please Madam Pass these things to the eldest princess on her behalf, and then when the eldest princess descends in the future, I beg the empress to choose a good character consort for her, so that she will be happy and worry-free for the rest of her life."

After speaking, he took a black lacquer carved box from Danbi and offered it with both hands.

Wei Yuhua was a man of temperament, and he didn't shirk it when he heard the words, so Xia Hui took the box and put it away, and ordered someone to pass on the imperial meal, so that Lu Mingxuan could use it. Seeing that Lu Mingxuan couldn't be kept anymore, she had to order Chunxuan to give it away She is out of the palace.

When Ling Mengqi came back in the evening, he had to ask Lu Mingxuan about entering the palace during the day. Lu Mingxuan said one by one, and finally said: "Now the Empress is pregnant again, no matter if she is a man or a woman, her position is as stable as a rock. It's just that it's hard to say how long she can hold the emperor's heart. After all, the emperor has a criminal record. Once she can't hold the emperor's heart, it's hard to say, just like the sinner Xu. What will happen, I really can't say!"

Ling Mengqi smiled and said: "You women just love to worry about these insignificant things. The relationship between husband and wife is all managed by yourself. What's the use of others worrying about it? You don't have to worry too much, Empress Wei is smart. Besides, there are some things that even if Queen Wei can't think of them, General Wei must have thought of them. No, today I wrote a booklet saying that I will be disarmed and returned to the fields. Therefore, as long as I don't commit the big mistake of the criminal Xu, Queen Wei will be able to become a queen in the future. Empress Dowager Wei, you can rest assured."

"General Wei said that he will be disarmed and return to the field?" Lu Mingxuan was surprised.

Ling Mengqi nodded: "Yes. In front of all civil and military officials, the emperor said that General Wei is the humerus of the country and the head of the country. He will sit at the border gate in person. He has no worries about the future. He will not agree to anything. General’s request, but I reckon that after General Wei makes a few more proposals, the matter will be almost inseparable, and it can be regarded as a good thing, so the position of Empress Wei and His Royal Highness will naturally be more stable.”

Now that the overall situation has been decided, General Wei holds the military power and is still the head of the country. He is both a relative and a powerful minister. The key point is Wei Yuhua and his son. If it is any emperor, it is impossible to rest assured. Wei Yuhua said that he is lying in the harem How can you allow others to snore, why doesn't the emperor have the same idea in his heart?

Since the king is already a king, a minister should naturally behave like a minister. The current emperor, since he was a prince, may be moderate, but he is by no means a cowardly person. It is natural to avoid its edge and keep its duty.

Although General Wei was born as a general, the Wei family has been able to stand for so many years, how can he really be that brave and foolhardy?

Taking advantage of the current relationship between the monarch and his ministers, he offered to disarm and return to the land, and then gradually changed his style of work to put away his edges and corners. In the future, the monarch and his subjects will be subject to each other. It will be a good story; For Wei Yuhua and His Royal Highness in the palace, these are intangible wealth!

It's no wonder that during the day, Wei Yuhua sighed, "If you want to gain something, you must lose something." I think the "loss" in her mouth is what she was talking about.

After another half a month, indeed after General Wei had submitted several papers one after another, the emperor finally allowed General Wei to disarm and return to Beijing. On top of the fact that the general had granted him the title of Fuguo Duke in accordance with the law, he also bestowed the title of Marquis of Zhongjing on the second son of General Wei.

For a while, the Fuguo Duke's Mansion was in the limelight in Beijing, and the emperor and empress were also happy to see its success in the palace, and everyone was happy.

Brother Yi's hundred-day ceremony was held as scheduled under such a big environment.

Although it is said that all silk and bamboo entertainments are forbidden during the national mourning period, they did not say that even banquets are not allowed.

Ling Mengqi said on that day that he would hold a banquet for his relatives, friends and colleagues after Brother Yi's full month, but it was not entirely to evade them so that Lu Mingxuan could sit in confinement quietly, but he really had this plan, Brother Yi The son suffered a lot when he was born, because of the poor environment at that time, even the three rites of baptism were omitted directly, Ling Mengqi has always been quite guilty in his heart, and he had made up his mind early on that he would make up for their mother and child during the [-]-day ceremony. It's over.

So it is conceivable how lively the Ling Mansion was this day, and how full of guests it was.

Lu Mingxuan got up early in the morning, and changed into a bright red sleeveless shirt embroidered with large peony flowers, her hair was combed into a peony bun, and she wore a red gold brushed beaded big phoenix hairpin, and she changed into a red one for Brother Yi. After getting the new clothes, he hugged him personally, and was surrounded by nurses and maidservants, and went to the front, ready to welcome the guests.

After a while, guests arrived one after another, and the first ones to arrive were Lu Zhongxian, Mrs. Qi and Mr. Anger and Mr. Dinger. Originally, the maiden's family was the guest of honor for such weddings, so it is understandable that they came earlier.

After Lu Zhongxian and the others arrived, Lu Mingfu and her husband and children also arrived. The family had to spend a lot of money. Lu Zhongxian looked at the scene full of children and grandchildren before him, thinking that ten years ago, he would never have imagined that one day he would live like this It's such a good day, I couldn't help the tears in my eyes.

Soon other guests arrived one after another, and the flower hall, which was originally quite spacious, was now packed to the brim, and it was indescribably lively.
