For such a big event, of course the Feng family would like to invite guests.
According to the relationship between the Sheng family and the Feng family, there is no reason not to be invited.
Especially Mr. Sheng and Mrs. Ming, both received invitations from Feng Ye personally.
After Mrs. Sheng agreed to come east in a pleasant manner, he complained to Mrs. Ming, saying that her old wife had not been in good health recently and that it would be inappropriate and unlucky to go to the banquet.
The Feng family knew full well that they were at fault for having an affair, so of course they would not force Mrs. Ming to attend. They just expressed a few words of concern and let it go.
After Sheng Weiqiao learned about this, he was secretly relieved and said to Yishan, "He thought his grandfather wouldn't come over!"
Yishan said with a smile: "Although the old man is not as smart and capable as the old man of the Feng family, he has been in the army for half his life and has seen the world. How can he not have the skills to pretend to be deaf and dumb and act as if nothing happened? Does the empress care? It would be chaos.”
In the month of the wedding, the two old ladies of the Sheng family and the Feng family met each other. As expected, they were chatting and laughing as before, as if no disagreement had ever happened. The "in-laws" were the elder and the "in-laws were the shortest". They were very warm and friendly, as if they were brothers. .
In that case, the people who came to attend the wedding, of course, couldn't say "the Feng family robbed the daughter-in-law that the Sheng family had arranged for." They could all lament that Sheng Lansi was too cheating on his son. It was a good marriage, and they all wanted to get married before they saw it. Then it was ruined by him, so it was a good thing that the Feng family was upright and brought out Feng Zhiyi, who was not yet married, to help smooth things over, so that the Luo family didn't hold a grudge.
However, it was announced to Feng that her eyes were wrong with Xiao's eyes and her nose was wrong with her nose at the seat of the women's family, which was very indifferent.
Bu Nao was soon discovered by Mrs. Zhan, who gave her a fierce look before the eldest daughter restrained herself.
In fact, Mrs. Xiao didn't know what happened until tomorrow. She was very worried when she saw what happened. She quietly leaned towards Mrs. Feng, took advantage of the opportunity, and begged pitifully: "Sister-in-law, how did they offend you and your niece? You Just give me a clear message and they will change their ways and apologize, okay?"
"... I'll ask daddy." Feng's mood was complicated when she heard this. She had a very bad relationship with Sheng Lansi's step-wife, the late Hong, but her relationship with Xiao's sister-in-law was really not bad, and even No, it hasn't been broken.
The Lord begs Mrs. Xiao to hold on to Dafang’s thigh from the moment she enters the house, not to mention jumping around like Hong, trying to take advantage of Dafang’s childlessness to usurp the family property, otherwise she would have never sung. Opposite.
Although Ms. Feng knew in her heart that what Ms. Xiao and Sheng Lanzi did was just to take advantage of others, but sensible people would never be liked by others.
Ru Ming's sister-in-law begged in a low voice, and Mrs. Feng almost begged to tell the truth.
After thinking about it for a while, Bu Nao said calmly, "Dad and mother, do you know what you know... Why didn't they tell us for so long?"
Mrs. Xiao smiled bitterly when she heard this, moved towards her and said, "Sister-in-law, don't you know what's going on with the third bedroom of our family? Dad loves the eldest brother the most, and mother cares about the second brother the most. They are the third brother, and they are always ignored. Of course, he did not complain about his parents when he said this. After all, the eldest brother is the eldest son, and he deserves the most attention. "
"As for the second brother, will the crying child be able to eat sweets? If he has been separated, he is a younger sister-in-law, so he can't say anything to his elders!"
"Have my parents always forgotten about their third wife? Did they go to my parents again and again to ask about that incident? If my mother is still in a bad mood now, my father saw that my mother was in a bad mood. If that’s the case, you won’t be so angry! How can you take the time to understand them?”
"To be honest, in those years, the only ones my family was willing to take care of were the elder brothers and sisters-in-law."
Although her words were not intended to flatter the family, they were also not true.
The third bedroom has always been the most neglected by Mr. and Mrs. Sheng. Because of their youngest son, some people have always spoken softly. Mr. Sheng had asked them and his wife to persuade the old lady before, but he didn't give any details, so he let them Please tell Mrs. Ming not to worry about Sheng Weide losing his marriage to the Luo family.
Although Xiao has some guesses, he is not sure.
When I come over for the wedding banquet tomorrow, I have made up my mind to ask Mr. Feng to ask Minghong, so as not to offend the big house and lose his backer by not knowing what is going on.
"I'll go slowly later!" After hearing this, Ms. Feng was silent for a while, thinking of the harmonious scene between her sisters-in-law since Mr. Xiao entered the Sheng family, she sighed secretly and said, "Go back to his place for a while. Walk."
Mrs. Xiao was overjoyed and agreed to come to Donglai without hesitation.
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, wondering what kind of affair Bu Ling had. The sister-in-law was very willing to give her face, and there was obviously no room for redemption.
But Empress Meng in Chang'an City was worried: Empress Dowager Meng invited a close doctor to come over and diagnose her pulse!
By doing this, the Queen Mother probably also knew that there was something wrong with her niece's pregnancy, so she brought the imperial doctor over to prove it.
After all, Empress Dowager Meng was her most beloved niece. When Shu Zhaoyi's pregnancy news came out, the Empress Dowager took the initiative to give her advice and go to Emperor Xuan Jing to have a baby, so that she could have a reliable future.
Later, when she learned that Empress Meng was "finally" pregnant, the Empress Dowager was so happy that she could not wait to live in Wangchun Palace in person to serve her.
Ru Ming brought his own imperial doctor over to diagnose the queen. Ultimately, he was afraid that the queen was young and had a hidden leg without knowing it, and would lose the heir she finally got.
However, Empress Meng had something in her mind. She almost turned pale when she heard the news. She gave several excuses to refuse, but they were all rejected by Empress Dowager Meng. Even after the Empress Dowager ordered the place to be cleared, she secretly questioned her whether she had been influenced by Meng Guiyu. So threatened that he didn't even dare to diagnose his pulse by his confidant, the imperial physician
How could Queen Dongzi Meng dare to say anything? Just say that there is no such thing, and are you worried that the aunt and nephew will rely on Meng Guiyu tomorrow? Meng Guiyu has already sent the imperial physician to help him with the pregnancy, and then accepting the diagnosis from the empress dowager's dedicated imperial physician may make Meng Guiyu suffer more. Heart
When the Queen Mother Meng heard this, she snorted coldly and said: "He is so worried that he would care about such a trivial matter? He has bad intentions. Even if Aijia doesn't do that, will he let me go?" One child? I don’t even think about it, how difficult it is for me to have that child? Although Ru Ming doesn’t know whether it’s a boy or a girl, but it is still my direct blood and blood. With such a child, I will never be in the palace for a long time. You’re so lonely, but you still have hope when you get old, right?”
"So Ru Ming quickly asked the Ai family's imperial doctor to take a look at it. If there is something good, it might be possible to save it in time. It's better than being confused and being plotted without knowing it, right?"
The queen was speechless, so she could fearlessly agree to come to the east.
She was thinking about whether the Queen Mother had accused the imperial doctor of being bribed and framed her after she found out that she was actually one month pregnant. Didn't she question the imperial doctor's medical skills, which was nonsense
Who would have thought that after the old doctor finished looking at her, he said that her fetal image was stable and everything was fine. As for the gender, it was very unclear at the moment, so he kept silent.
That situation made Queen Meng put her mind at ease for a while, and then she suddenly realized: If it was so related to the dignity of the royal family, who would be stupid enough to report it in public? Wouldn't that offend my own queen to death?
Do you want to be hated by all the attendants in the Wangchun Palace
Do you want to go back and talk to the Queen Mother quietly
For a moment, Empress Meng was on edge and wanted to rush in and kill the old doctor herself!
When she was feeling uneasy, the Queen Mother was very happy to ask questions, told many taboos during pregnancy, and finally said sadly: "The Ai family is so old, and they have been extraordinarily homeless in the past two years. Recently, I often feel that I am very tired, my energy is not as good as before, I don’t know if my life is approaching, I don’t know if I will be able to see my grandson born?”
The queen felt uncomfortable after saying that. She calmed down and went to comfort her: "Auntie, are you overthinking it? He noticed that your complexion was much better than in the last few months. Not to mention seeing your grandson born. I need your help to check the details of the prince’s future marriage!”
"My family asks if I will be blessed to see my great-grandson. Then I will spend my whole life working as a cow and a horse without any regrets!" Empress Dowager Meng was as cheerful as a person when happy events happen. Even if she occasionally had regrets, she would put them aside in the blink of an eye. When I heard this, I couldn't help but smile, but when I thought of something, I frowned, and the old doctor and other confidants said, "Let's all retreat!"
After Chi Zuosi and a group of people retreated, she whispered, "Son, since I'm pregnant, even though Ruming has no way to confirm the gender, you still have to get ready!"
At that time, Empress Meng was preoccupied with wondering whether the old doctor would turn around and beg to inform Empress Dowager Meng. She was uneasy. When she heard this, she forced a smile and said casually: "Auntie, what are you preparing for?"
"My child!" Empress Dowager Meng saw that she was distracted. She thought that her niece was a little overwhelmed by her first pregnancy, but she didn't have any suspicion. At this moment, she gently patted the back of her leg. He said in a low voice, "Are you prepared for anything? If my child is not the original master of Wei, that's fine! If he is not the prince... I think Guiyu will tolerate him?! Isn't that what I told the Ai family before? How come you turned around and forgot?"
Queen Meng was confused and said: "Aunt, his child, please call Sixth Brother 'uncle'..."
"I see that Rong Jing, even his biological son is willing to die, let alone his nephew?" Empress Dowager Meng sneered, "Besides, Gui Yu is not very close to us in the first place. It was good for us to do wrong in the beginning, but it was only because we could give him the favor at that time. Good for him! Didn't he show his arrogance and indifference during those confinement months? I think he has great power, but he always finds various excuses and refuses to send people to various places to gather his Meng family children. If there is any news, All of them are bad news. If one thing is gone, the other thing will be useless... Our nephew is in the deep palace, and his eyes are dark outside. It is very difficult for us to believe whatever he says. As for whether it is true in the final analysis. It’s gone, it’s gone, who knows if it was destroyed by him or not?!”
"Those young men are just bad. We, Ru Ming, have no control over them."
"However, the child in my belly is not my flesh and blood, nor is he the direct grandson of the Ai family. How can I not think about him?"
Queen Mother Meng's voice was even lower, "So the idea I gave to the Ai family earlier...can't be delayed any longer now, right?"
The queen asked absently: "Auntie, what idea did you tell me? He was a little happy in the past two months and forgot about it."
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Meng went to care about her health and made sure she was fine. Then she reminded her, "Didn't you tell me to find Jiaxing and come back?"
"Good trip?" Queen Meng was stunned for a moment, then she came to her senses and said, "That's right, that's right! Did he say that... Isn't it possible that things like this are not that simple and can be done?"
She had given the Queen Mother this idea earlier, but she had planned to have Rong Suihe arrange for someone to pretend to be Meng Jiaxing and enter the court to fight for power with Meng Guiyu, so as to make a great contribution.
It turned out that not long after that, I found out I was pregnant.
Empress Meng went to worry about her own affairs, but Dong Liang was not very enthusiastic for various reasons, so she dragged her away.
If the truth about her pregnancy was suspected to be exposed, Lu Yin and Lu Xin were both "stunned to death", and Queen Meng naturally completely threw the idea away.
Who would have thought that Empress Dowager Meng had always been concerned about her unborn "grandson" and planned to take action soon.
Queen Meng was in a dilemma: How should I tell my aunt
