Shen Ziqiao couldn't go to Shen's house to mourn, so the news of her pregnancy spread quickly.
An Guogong was so happy that he couldn't smile from ear to ear, and discussed with Mrs. Qi about the candidate for the next son.
When Little Gu heard that Shen Ziqiao was pregnant, she accidentally dropped a set of valuable white jade porcelain cups. She is still grounded and can't do anything. It's a marriage.
But Qi Feng went to find Qi Zheng after Gu Daiqin's body was almost recuperated.
"Brother, can you do me a favor." Qi Feng looked at Qi Zheng haggardly. Now he has lost the arrogance and sharpness of the past, because of Gu Daiqin, he understands a lot that he couldn't see clearly before. In fact, those arrogance and edges and corners have been severely polished away, making him more restrained and mature.
"What's the matter?" Qi Zheng didn't agree, probably because of Qi Feng's unwavering commitment to Gu Daiqin, Qi Zheng took a good look at this half-brother.
Qi Feng said in a low voice, "I want to let it out..."
Now Qi Feng is working in the Imperial Academy, although this position does not look very good now, but the prospect is very good, and the little Gu family also expects that Qi Feng will be able to become a knight and a chancellor in the future.
"Are you sure?" A flash of surprise flashed in Qi Zheng's eyes, he looked at Qi Feng, wondering how much truth he said.
Qi Feng smiled faintly, "Brother, please help."
He used to look down on Qi Zheng, thinking that Qi Zheng was a fool who made people laugh, never thought that this fool would one day become a hero in the hearts of the people of the Great Zhou, let alone that Qi Zheng would now become the most trusted confidant of His Highness the Crown Prince.
How the Sun family and Concubine Ma Xian suffered such a crushing defeat, Qi Feng can still see clearly, there must be Qi Zheng's handwriting, this person, even someone as powerful as Prime Minister Sun, can calculate, let alone a mere prince, Qi Zheng didn't even bother to be a prince.
Qi Feng didn't naively think that Qi Zheng became normal after being punched by Shen Ziqiao.
A person can pretend to be a fool for so many years, this is not what Qi Feng can do, he is not as good as Qi Zheng at all, this is a fact.
Now that he has recognized the facts clearly, as for whether his mother recognizes them clearly, he no longer wants to know.
He wanted to take Gu Daiqin away from Qi's house and the capital. It doesn't matter if you are a county magistrate anywhere, the life with only him and Qin'er is much better than being in the Qi family.
"I get it." Qi Zheng nodded, as if he agreed.
After Qi Feng left. Qi Zheng also went back to the house and told Shen Ziqiao about it.
"He came to you instead of looking for his father?" Shen Ziqiao was surprised, "Is he doing this as a way of showing favor to you?"
"Who else do I need to show favor to!" Qi Zheng snorted, but thought in his heart that there happened to be a county magistrate in Linjiang City. Just let Qi Feng go there.
Shen Ziqiao threw herself into his arms and jokingly said, "I'm showing you my friendship."
"Be careful! How old you are, you still love to play so much!" Qi Zheng yelled. He held her tenderly in his arms.
Ever since Shen Ziqiao got pregnant, she liked to cling to him more and more to make jokes, of course. He enjoyed the intimacy between the two of them.
Two days passed. The matter of Qi Feng's release was confirmed, and the news quickly reached Little Gu's ears.
Little Gu just felt that her whole body was taken away, all her hopes were on Qi Feng, she had already made preparations for the elders of her natal family to force Qi Silin to make Qi Feng his son, but in the end Qi Feng was let go, It is impossible to come back in three to five years.
"... I heard that the eldest young master is mediating outside." Xiao Gu only heard this sentence, and she screamed like crazy. Qi Zheng must have done it on purpose! He must have deliberately driven Qi Feng out of the capital.
"I'm going to find the old lady to judge!" Little Gu said angrily, why did Qi Zheng drive her son away.
Xiao Gu ran out of the upper room angrily, but was stopped by the two wives at the courtyard gate, who threatened that she would be grounded now and could not go anywhere.
"You lowly slave, dare to stop me!" Little Gu slapped each other one by one. Her prestige in the Qi family has never been surpassed by anyone, but today she was stopped by two lowly slaves. How could she be calm? gas.
The woman who was beaten belonged to Mrs. Qi, and they knew better than anyone else that the Qi family had changed, and the little Gu family could no longer cover the sky with one hand as before.
In order to protect little Gu Shi, Mother Su wrestled with the two women.
The screams of maidservants resounded in the yard.
The old lady and Shen Ziqiao, who were admiring the flowers in the garden, heard the movement and rushed over to check it together.
Little Gu's hair was all over her hair, her noble and dignified image was gone, she looked like a crazy woman, her eyes were red with anger, seeing Shen Ziqiao walking beside Mrs. Qi, new and old hatred welled up in her heart, she shivered. Shouting, he ran towards Shen Ziqiao.
Shen Ziqiao's eyes darkened, and she took a few steps back.
Said that it was too late and then too soon, Hongying, who was behind Shen Ziqiao, ran quickly to collide with little Gu.
"Catch this crazy woman!" Mrs. Qi angrily shouted at the rough envoy beside her.
Shen Ziqiao was protected by Hongyu and Mo Zhu, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, Xiao Gu clearly wanted to hit the young lady's belly.
"Let go of me, you lowly maidservants, how dare you treat me like this!" Xiao Gu shrieked.
"Shut her up in the Buddhist hall at the back!" Mrs. Qi ordered with a gloomy face, "Madam is crazy, I'm afraid she can't be cured anymore..."
Su's mother at the side instantly turned pale with fright, what does the old lady mean by this
"Old man, why are you treating me like this? I'm your niece, your niece!" Little Gu cried.
Mrs. Qi looked at her indifferently, "It's because you are my niece that I tolerated you for so many years."
"Take it down!"
Amid Little Gu's howls, An Guogong came back.
He heard that Xiao Gu wanted to hurt Shen Ziqiao, and he was furious. He even regretted that he should not have been seduced by such a woman back then, married such a woman, not to mention hurting his children, and almost hurt Shen Ziqiao.
Xiao Gu's family was regarded as a bewildered man and locked up in the Buddhist hall, Duke An ordered that Qi Feng and others not be allowed to visit.
In less than two months, the Qi family spread the news that Xiao Gu led him to practice.
Qi Feng took Gu Daiqin to Linjiang City.
Although Qi Rui and Qi Yun felt that there was something strange about Little Gu's cultivation practice, they still dared to raise doubts, and obediently let Mrs. Qi make a marriage for them.
There was also news of Hu's death from Zhuangzi.
…
…
Feeling that the house became quieter all of a sudden, Shen Ziqiao leaned lazily in Qi Zheng's arms, eating the peaches he fed to his mouth, "It seems...we can't move out."
"If you don't like this place, we'd better move out." Qi Zheng said.
"No. I think it's pretty good here, but I can't go to Dongyue anymore." I'm afraid Xiao Gu's family will never be able to get out in this life, without Xiao Gu's watching from the sidelines. Shen Ziqiao felt that this was her and Qi Zheng's home.
"When our daughter is born, we will go to Dongyue." Qi Zheng kissed her pursed lips and said with a smile.
Shen Ziqiao snorted, "How do you know it's a daughter. I think it's a son."
"It's all good!" Qi Zheng licked and kissed her tender lips with the fresh and sweet taste of peaches, as long as it was his and her children, he would regard them as treasures.
"Qi Zheng..." Shen Ziqiao was gasping for breath after being kissed by him, and could clearly feel his body changing instantly.
Ever since he knew she was pregnant, he never asked to have sex with him. But he slept next to him every night, how could she not know how hard he was holding back.
"I'm going to the study!" Qi Zheng didn't expect that just a kiss would make him unable to hold back, and he pushed her away with difficulty. I'm afraid that if I kiss again, it will really get out of hand.
Shen Ziqiao put her arms around his shoulders. Kissing his neck softly, blushing, and said shyly, "You don't want me, why don't you still want to accept a maid? Suffocate you."
It's not that there are no maids who want to take advantage of her pregnancy to seduce Qi Zheng. Shen Ziqiao was also worried that he would be tempted, but he didn't let her down.
"Jiaojiao. You... you are pregnant..." Qi Zheng was breathing heavily after being kissed by Shen Ziqiao, and all the blood in his body rushed to a certain point under his body, which was swollen and painful.
"It's been three months, just be careful..." Shen Ziqiao said, holding his hand and placing it on her increasingly plump breasts.
Qi Zheng's fingers seemed to have a consciousness of their own, and couldn't help kneading them.
Shen Ziqiao groaned, "I asked Imperial Doctor Zhou."
The tense rationality finally collapsed, Qi Zheng hugged Shen Ziqiao and put her on the bed, lowered his head and kissed her lips fiercely.
The room was full of spring, only the sound of the man's panting and the woman's moaning came together, so ambiguous that the maid outside bowed her head and ran away.
The next day, Shen Ziqiao woke up in Qi Zheng's arms, and when she raised her eyes, she fell into a pair of bright eyes.
"Don't you want to sleep any longer?" Qi Zheng's expression was a little nervous, he seemed to be a little too indulgent last night, and he didn't know if she felt uncomfortable.
"Don't sleep anymore, go for a walk." Shen Ziqiao said with a smile, "Go out quickly, I want to get dressed."
The body under the quilt was naked, Shen Ziqiao's cheeks were slightly flushed, and she was unwilling to put on clothes in front of Qi Zheng.
Qi Zheng laughed when he heard this, "Is there anything else I haven't seen?"
Shen Ziqiao pushed him, "I don't care, get out!"
"I'll help you put on the bellyband." Qi Zheng was not willing to go out, and smiled softly with his arms around Shen Ziqiao.
"No!" Shen Ziqiao shook her head resolutely, pushed him away and grasped the bellyband at the end of the bed tightly in her hands. Although they were already very close, she would be shy and embarrassed.
Qi Zheng laughed loudly, "Jiaojiao..."
Boom—boom—
Suddenly, a deep and magnificent bell sounded muffled. This bell came from the imperial palace and rang throughout the entire capital. The solemn bell rang seven times, and the ending lingered for a long time, revealing an indescribable sadness.
Shen Ziqiao noticed that Qi Zheng's mood dropped instantly, so she knew that the ringing of the bell could not represent anything good, "What's wrong?"
Qi Zheng looked down at her, "The emperor has passed away."
…
…
When the emperor passed away, Sheng Peiyin's love came to an end. The queen gave Sheng Peiyin to be buried with the late emperor in the name of the emperor's favorite Concubine Ma Xian in his life.
The empress hated Sheng Peiyin to the extreme. She saw Sheng Peiyin imprisoned in the tomb of the late emperor with her own eyes, and she was truly at ease after confirming that it was impossible for her to appear in the world in her life.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascended the throne as Emperor, appointed Qi Zheng as Marquis of Jing, and Shen Ziqiao as the Second Rank Madam.
Holding the imperial decree, Shen Ziqiao felt down-to-earth.
Sheng Peiyin is dead...
When the crown prince ascended the throne, she got her wish and kicked off the heroine to kill a bloody path, changing the ending of the book.
It's really... like a dream.
Mrs. Qi told Mama Tian to go to the kitchen and hold a banquet tonight.
Shen Ziqiao returned to Qianlin Courtyard. At this moment, her heart was surging with joy, and there was a kind of complete relief, complete freedom and ease, and that kind of happy little bubbles popped up in her heart.
In the evening, Qi Zheng came back, and Shen Ziqiao stood in the courtyard, looking at the man who was walking towards her with the setting sun on his back. I have never felt that he is so good-looking and love him so much like this moment.
Qi Zheng approached her step by step, with a faint smile on Fengshen's handsome face, "Jiaojiao, I'm back."
Shen Ziqiao snuggled into his arms, "Qi Zheng, did I tell you, I love you very much."
"Well, I know." Qi Zheng's eyes were gentle, and he felt satisfied like never before.
A few months later, Shen Ziqiao gave birth to a boy.
Qi Zheng hugged his son who looked very similar to him, and smiled beside Shen Ziqiao, "It seems that we need to work harder, and we will be able to give birth to a daughter next time..."
Shen Ziqiao was too tired to talk, she closed her eyes and went to sleep with a smile, she will have both children!
The real happiness that belongs to her has just begun.

(It's over, I feel very calm after typing the three words "End of the full text". Thank you for your support over the years. Some things are not suitable to say here. Anyway, I hope we will meet in the next book.)
Extra episode
Shen Ziqiao felt that she was about to become the Lion Roar of the River East.
When she found out that Qi Zheng took two children to pick fruit on the mountain again, she was so angry that she almost ran away at home. The naughty son and daughter were already driving her crazy, but Qi Zheng seemed to want to make up for what she lacked in her childhood. As for her two children, she almost responded to their requests. Yesterday she took them to the fish pond to catch fish, and the three of them came back wet with a fishy smell. She hadn't had time to teach them a lesson. I went to climb a mountain.
She has a grand education policy for her daughter, she wants to teach her daughter Qi Shuyu to be a super lady.
"Young Madam, the Grand Duke is also going..." Hongyu, who is already married, said in a low voice.
Shen Ziqiao froze for a moment, "Would you like to go with the Duke?"
"The young master said he wanted to go with the Duke." Hongyu said.
"Hey, this brat knows how to match them up," Shen Ziqiao smiled angrily, and the anger in her heart dissipated a little.
Her son Qi Shujin is five years old, and her daughter is three years old. They have returned to the capital for less than a year, and they have lived in Dongyue before. This time, she came back with Qi Zheng to report on her work.
After returning, I realized that the situation at home was no different from when she left. Little Gu was still locked in the Buddhist hall, and An Guogong had no intention of releasing her at all. The old lady passed away last year, and all the power in the family It landed on Shen Ziqiao's shoulder.
She knew that Qi Zheng was hesitating whether to continue to work in Dongyue, because there was only Duke An in his family.
This time when he came back with two children, An Guogong was so happy that tears came out of his eyes, and he played wildly with his two grandchildren all day long. He was not at all like the gentle and refined An Guogong.
In fact, An Guogong has been looking for opportunities to compensate Qi Zheng.
Shen Ziqiao sighed, and turned around to persuade Qi Zheng, or stay in the capital, Shen Xiao loves her two grandchildren very much. Her two nephews both yelled that grandpa was biased.
"Young madam, that aunt has written again." Hong Ying, who had become Shen Ziqiao's lady in charge, walked in, holding a letter in her hand.
That aunt is Qi Bi.
Although Mrs. Hu is dead, Qi Bi is the daughter of Duke An. The servants in the family still call her aunt, but since Qi Bi got married, she has never been back to the capital. Before, the old lady did not allow her to come back, but now It was An Guogong who ignored her.
Qi Bi has been writing letters to Shen Ziqiao, hoping to receive Hu's spiritual seat to Qi's family. Don't let the Hu family become a lonely soul without a master.
"She really doesn't give up..." Shen Ziqiao shook her head, she didn't sympathize with Hu's death at all, if she kept her own place. There would be no today.
Letting Hu's spiritual seat enter the door of Qi's family, wouldn't that revive her mother-in-law who had no chance to meet her
"Reply to her." Shen Ziqiao has received letters for several years, but has never replied to Qi Bi, and finally ran out of patience today.
Hongyu and Hongying looked at her in surprise, thinking that Shen Ziqiao was finally moved.
"Let her ask my mother-in-law. If she agrees, I will agree to her." Shen Ziqiao said with a smile, "It's your uncle's biological mother, not the one behind."
"This is more desperate than a direct rejection." Hongyu said.
"It's good to be hopeless."
Hongying laughed and asked, "Young Madam. The Ninth Princess has decided to hold a chrysanthemum feast at the Ninth Prince's Mansion the next day. I just sent someone to confirm whether you will go tomorrow."
The Ninth Princess is Shen Zixin.
Because of the death of Mrs. Shen and the death of the late emperor, both Shen Zixin and the Ninth Prince kept their filial piety for a year. We got married four years ago, and now we have a three-year-old son.
Shen Ziqiao had been back for such a long time, and had only seen the Ninth Prince once.
It really feels like years.
It was different from the first time I met the Ninth Prince. At that time, the Ninth Prince was a young man who was arrogant and arrogant and thought he was talented. He stood tall and looked at her with disdainful eyes. All she wanted to do then was poke his eyes out.
The Ninth Prince is not a bad person in his heart, he just loves Sheng Peiyin deeply. Shen Ziqiao changed his mind on him on the way to the northwest. He was brave enough to sacrifice his life to save Sheng Peiyin. He is weak and loves the wrong person.
When the first emperor passed away, Sheng Peiyin was forced to be buried by the empress. The Ninth Prince did not stop him. Even when Sheng Peiyin asked him to beg him, he just replied that the woman he loved was dead.
When I saw him not long ago, I realized that he was different from before. He became peaceful and introverted. He was just an ordinary man. The people went to spend time and drink.
Shen Zixin is also very happy. When I saw her last time, I found that the corners of her brows and eyes were full of contented and peaceful smiles. I knew that Shen Zixin was living a very good life. There were no concubines at home. It was just her and the Ninth Prince. Can you live a good life
When Shen Zixin was mentioned, Shen Ziqiao thought of Zhou Shi, and when she thought of this aunt, she felt black lines all over her face.
Because she became the mother-in-law of the Ninth Prince, the Zhou family walked like a wind, and Shen Zixin was ashamed of her arrogant appearance. When she saw Shen Ziqiao, she still looked superior, as if she was waiting for Shen Ziqiao to worship and please her. , even let the two sons raise the outer room outside, and the concubines brought them home one by one. The second master Shen couldn't stand it, and arranged the errands of the two sons to a remote border town. The concubines in the family were also dismissed, and they were only allowed to bring their wives and children with them.
Mrs. Zhou quarreled with Mr. Shen Er over this matter for a few days, and finally Mr. Shen sent him a letter of divorce, which made Mrs. Zhou calm down.
However, her nature is hard to change, and Shen Ziqiao feels that in a short time, the Zhou family will definitely continue to dance again.
When Shen Zixin asked her to attend the chrysanthemum feast this time, she was actually looking for a way to stop the Zhou family from making trouble once and for all.
Shen Ziqiao couldn't help laughing, she came back to her senses, "Go back to the Ninth Concubine, we will go as soon as possible."
"Mother, mother, we are back..." It was the son's childish voice.
"Mother, we picked a lot of persimmons~~~~" The daughter's delicate voice followed.
The corner of Shen Ziqiao's mouth twitched, "It's just in time to come back!"
"Don't run so fast, be careful that your mother will beat you later." Qi Zheng pulled the two little ones back, "Go and clean yourself up."
"Qi Zheng!" Shen Ziqiao shouted angrily, "What did you promise me last night?"
"Let's go, let's go." Qi Zheng hurriedly asked Mo Zhu and the others to take the young master and miss down.
Shen Ziqiao came out of the room, her almond eyes widened, "Qi Zheng!"
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, didn't you say that children need more exercise to be healthy, look how happy they are..." Qi Zheng stepped forward to hug her, and kissed her on the cheek while talking.
Two little kids hiding in the corner jumped out, "Mom, we want to kiss too~"
When Shen Ziqiao saw that their bodies were covered in mud, she pinched Qi Zheng's waist forcefully, "Go to the study to sleep tonight."
"Together we will… "
"Mother~" The two children had already rubbed against Shen Ziqiao, and the mud on their bodies made Shen Ziqiao's dress dirty.
"Here's my new clothes, you two, I'm going to beat you up..."
