Zhou Chen sighed slightly, he knew Gong Yu meant well.
"In half a month, I will leave the capital and go back to Mount Langya. We can talk about the recognition after I come back from Mount Langya."
"But you are right. We cannot let our mother continue to worry like this. We must let her get over the sadness caused by the death of our great-grandmother. Please act out a play with me tomorrow."
"What play is this?" Gong Yu asked puzzledly.
Zhou Chen whispered his thoughts in her ear, and Gong Yu nodded repeatedly after listening.
The next afternoon, Zhou Chen accompanied Gong Yu to appreciate the flowers in the courtyard. Suddenly, his ears moved and he heard someone approaching, so he immediately winked at Gong Yu.
Gong Yu understood and immediately got into the mood. She asked Zhou Chen softly, "Sir, our child will be born in a few months. Should we think of a name for the child in advance?"
Zhou Chen said: "It's time to think of a name, and from what I see in your situation, it seems that you are pregnant with twins."
"Twins?"
Gong Yu was shocked because Zhou Chen had never told her about this before.
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Yes, you know my medical skills, there shouldn't be much mistake. The possibility of twins is very high, so we have to think of two more names."
"Sir, you say."
"My original surname was Zhou, but I had to change it because of the disaster. So our child should still be named Zhou. For naming, we also need to refer to the family tree, so I need to think about it carefully."
When Steward Lu, who was listening outside the courtyard, heard this, his breathing suddenly stagnated. He did not listen to the next words and left quietly.
When Zhou Chen heard the noise of Butler Lu leaving, he immediately smiled and nodded at Gong Yu, who also smiled happily.
"Sir, is it true what you just said about twins?"
"It's true. Twins are a good thing, but for you women, it's also a huge danger, so you must be careful when taking care of your pregnancy in the future, especially since I'm going to be away for a while next month, so you have to be more careful."
In modern society, giving birth to twins is not a difficult task, but in ancient times, there was no such thing as cesarean section, and the baby could only be born by the woman's will, so it was a very risky thing for the woman to give birth.
Gong Yu said firmly, "Don't worry, sir. I will definitely pay attention."
At this moment, she felt extremely excited and had a great sense of mission. These were her and the Young Master's children, two of them. Even if she had to risk her life, she was determined to raise these two children.
Butler Lu thought his eavesdropping had not been discovered, so he found an excuse to go out the next day and contacted Jin Yu in the Princess's Mansion through a secret line.
After learning about this, Jin Yu immediately returned to the Princess's Mansion and told Princess Pingyang.
Since the death of the Empress Dowager, Xiao Zhihan has been in a very bad mood and spirit, and she has also caught a cold. This makes Jin Yu, who has been serving her, very nervous. Physical illness is easy to cure, but mental state is not so easy to recover.
"Princess, Shopkeeper Lu just sent a message. He heard Xiaochen and Miss Gong Yu discussing the name of their unborn child in the yard."
When Xiao Zhihan heard about Zhou Chen and Gong Yu, her originally sad expression suddenly changed.
"Name the child?"
"Yes, Princess, Shopkeeper Lu heard something incredible. He heard that Miss Gong Yu seemed to be pregnant with twins, and during their conversation, they said they wanted to restore the surname Zhou to the children."
Xiao Zhihan's expression suddenly changed: "Are you sure?"
Jin Yu was also unable to hide his excitement, and said in an excited tone: "Shopkeeper Lu is very sure that he heard it correctly. It is the surname Zhou, Princess. We only guessed that Gongzi Yu might be Xiaochen before, but we were not completely sure. But now, we can be completely sure that he is Xiaochen."
"Great, great."
Xiao Zhihan was so excited that she couldn't say anything else. She clasped her hands together and murmured to herself: "God bless us, Lord, our child is finally back. Xiaochen is not dead. He is finally back."
Even though it had been almost confirmed before, I was still a little scared because I didn't recognize each other. What if they guessed wrong?
But now, when I heard Zhou Chen mention the surname Zhou, I could be sure that Chen Yu must be Zhou Chen.
"Jinyu, Xiaochen is back, and he will soon have his own children, or two children. This is a great joy."
Jin Yu was so excited that she shed tears: "Yes, Princess, you have not waited in vain for all these years. Xiaochen is finally back. Although he cannot come back to recognize me now, as long as he is still here, it is worth being happy about more than anything else."
"Princess, Xiaochen is right in front of us, and you will have a grandson soon. You must take care of yourself more now. Otherwise, when Xiaochen comes back, he will be very distressed to see you like this. Besides, you have to take care of Xiaochen's grandson, so you have to take good care of yourself."
Xiao Zhihan smiled: "Yes, Jinyu, you are right. Although grandma is gone, she left with a smile. I shouldn't be like this now. Jinyu, let's continue making clothes for the children. If there are two children, the clothes we made before will not be enough to wear."
"Yes, county lord."
…………
In the blink of an eye, it is August.
Not long after the beginning of August, a major event that shocked the entire court suddenly occurred in the capital. For some unknown reason, the crown prince angered Emperor Liang and was suddenly imprisoned by the emperor. No one in the court could see the crown prince, and anyone who pleaded for the crown prince was not even seen by the emperor.
This incident directly disrupted the Daliang court, and the prince's biggest rival, Prince Yu, reacted most excitedly.
The prince who had been fighting for so many years, recently due to the sudden rise of Prince Jing, the two of them have put aside their fight and started targeting Prince Jing.
Who would have thought that such a sudden change would happen at this time? Prince Yu tried to find out the news everywhere, even looking for the Queen, but unfortunately, he didn't get any useful information at all.
Because when Emperor Liang imprisoned the crown prince, only Gao Zhan and Meng Zhi were present.
Meng Zhi now hid himself and dared not see anyone, but he found Mei Changsu and Prince Jing in private and told them the truth.
Zhou Chen didn't ask much about this matter because he was about to set off for Langya Mountain.
On the tenth day of August, Zhou Chen packed his things early. In fact, it wouldn't take long to travel from Jinling City to Langya Mountain by fast horse, but Zhou Chen still went there a few days in advance.
He had already said goodbye to Mei Changsu and others yesterday, so he said goodbye to Gong Yu early this morning.
"During the days I'm away, you should stay at home and don't run around. If you encounter any problems, go find Xiao Shu or Mr. Thirteen."
Before leaving, he gave Gong Yu instructions.
If Gong Yu had not been pregnant, he would definitely have taken Gong Yu back to Langya Mountain. However, Gong Yu was now almost six months pregnant, and her belly had become quite big, making it inconvenient for her to walk for a long time, let alone ride a horse or take a car for a long journey.
So he could only leave Gong Yu at home. The capital was a very safe place. Plus, Changzhifang where he lived was in the inner city, so it was relatively safe.
When the Empress Dowager passed away, Emperor Liang wanted Zhou Chen to stay in the Imperial Medical Service, but Zhou Chen refused. In the end, Emperor Liang rewarded him with some gold, silver and other valuables.
This also left an impression in front of Emperor Liang, so his residence in the capital was more secure.
Gong Yu looked reluctant, but still said softly: "Sir, don't worry about me, I will take good care of myself."
Zhou Chen stroked her cheek gently: "How can I not be worried when you are like this? If it weren't for Master's message, I would definitely stay and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with you."
Pavilion Master Lin is not only his master, but also his benefactor. Ever since he became his disciple, he has never done anything for Langya Pavilion. This time his master asked him to go back, and there is no way he would not go back.
After bidding farewell to Gong Yu reluctantly, Zhou Chen left the capital city alone on horseback. After leaving the city gate, he rode away at full speed.
Su's house!
"Master, the young master has already left the city."
Mei Changsu was standing outside the yard. Li Gang hurried over and told him that Zhou Chen had left the capital.
"Well, I see."
"Master, if the young master leaves at this time, I don't know when he will come back. Will it affect our plan?"
Li Gang was a little worried, because Zhou Chen was not only the strongest military force in their Jiangzuo League, but also the only person who could persuade Mei Changsu, so he really didn't want Zhou Chen to leave.
Mei Changsu glanced at him and said calmly: "Li Gang, have you been a little free recently?"
"Ah?" Li Gang looked confused.
"I think you talk a lot."
"what?"
Li Gang was even more confused, but after taking a look at Mei Changsu's eyes, he left without saying a word.
"Wait, let's go inform Mr. Thirteen and Tong Lu and ask them to come over in the evening."
"Okay, Master."
After Li Gang left, Mei Changsu looked at the sky with a somewhat lonely expression.
"Brother."
Mei Changsu turned around in surprise and saw Mu Nihuang. He asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Mu Nihuang smiled and said, "I came to see my brother. I have decided to keep vigil for my grandmother, so I will not leave the capital for the next year."
"That's great."
Mei Changsu said happily that he was very happy that Mu Nihuang could stay.
"Brother, I heard that the crown prince is about to be deposed. What are your plans next?"
…………
It was August 14th when Zhou Chen returned to Langya Mountain. He went to Qinhuai River on the way and stayed with Wanbo for two days.
As soon as he came back, he was blamed by Lin Chen.
"Junior brother, look at you. My father asked you to come back on August 15 to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, but you only came back on August 14. You are really in a hurry."
Zhou Chen said: "It's because a lot of things happened in the capital recently, which delayed us. Master should have come back."
"My father came back a month ago."
"Then do you know that the Master called us all back this time? Is there something he wants us to do?"
Lin Chen shrugged and said, "I asked him, but he insisted that we should talk about it after you come back. What can I do? I can only wait."
"Okay, where is the master now? I will go and pay my respects to him first."
"It's in the back hills, follow me."
Zhou Chen and Lin Chen went to the back mountain together and saw their master, Pavilion Master Lin, who was practicing in the back mountain.
"Dad, Xiaochen is back."
"Master."
Pavilion Master Lin opened his eyes and smiled when he saw Zhou Chen.
"Xiaochen is back, come here."
Zhou Chen came in front of Pavilion Master Lin and sat cross-legged next to him casually.
"Master, I haven't seen you for a few years. You are still as strong and charming as ever."
Pavilion Master Lin laughed in silence: "You naughty monkey."
"I heard from Lin Chen that you have already practiced the Pure Yang Art to perfection. Good, very good. It seems that my original decision was correct. It was the right decision to let you practice the Pure Yang Art. You are indeed a martial arts genius that is rare in a century."
The Pure Yang Technique is definitely one of the most difficult internal skills to practice in the world, but Zhou Chen only took ten years to practice the Pure Yang Technique to perfection. This is a talent that even the founder of the Pure Yang Technique did not have.
Zhou Chen said modestly: "I have achieved what I have today only by standing on the shoulders of giants."
"Not arrogant, not impetuous, very good."
Pavilion Master Lin was even more satisfied, but he suddenly sighed: "The road of martial arts is endless. If you can practice martial arts with your talent, you will definitely become an unprecedented martial arts master. But now you are deeply trapped in the vortex of Jinling City. I am afraid you don't even have much time to practice martial arts."
Zhou Chen said: "Master, this is something I must experience, after all, there is a past there that I cannot let go of."
"I don't mean to say anything to you. You are a person with your own opinions. I knew that from the first moment I saw you."
As Elder Lin was talking, he suddenly laughed: "I heard from Lin Chen that you are going to get married? You are even going to have a child soon?"
"Master, I haven't had time to report this to you because I don't have your contact information. Gong Yu and I are in love with each other. Although we haven't officially gotten married, she is indeed pregnant."
"Hahaha, good, that's great. When you and Xiao Shu were trying to detoxify, I was really worried that you might damage your foundation. Now it seems like you've got a blessing in disguise."
Pavilion Master Lin was very happy. He was also a man and knew how important it was for a man to pass on his family line. Especially for a noble like Zhou Chen who was born in a marquisate, offspring were even more important.
Lin Chen listened for a long time and couldn't help interrupting and asking, "Dad, you came back suddenly this time and called all of us brothers back. Is there something important you want to tell us?"
Pavilion Master Lin glared at Lin Chen in dissatisfaction: "You are already over 30 years old, but you still don't look mature and steady at all. Your junior brother is about to become a father, what about you?"
Lin Chen was scolded with a helpless look on his face: "Dad, how did this get involved with me? You gave birth to me when you were in your thirties, so it's not too late for me."
Pavilion Master Lin also knew what kind of person his son was and stopped scolding him.
"I asked you to come back because I have something to tell you, but let's talk about it after the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Zhou Chen spent the Mid-Autumn Festival on Langya Mountain. Langya Pavilion is very big and there are many people there, so the Mid-Autumn Festival was quite lively.
Lin Chen, in particular, was a person who could not sit still. When he was bored, he would call people over to play mahjong. Even the old Pavilion Master Lin was very interested and played a few rounds.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Pavilion Master Lin called Lin Chen and Zhou Chen to his room.
"I called you back this time because I have a few things to tell you."
When Lin Chen heard this, he immediately became nervous: "Dad, what do you mean by this? What do you mean by explanation?"
"Shut up and listen to me."
Pavilion Master Lin, who was interrupted, looked at Lin Chen with dissatisfaction.
