Speaking of this, Mu Yexiao was a little confused. They had discussed the issue of having children before, and Qian Jiujiu had the same attitude. However, after so many years, neither of them had any health problems, but Qian Jiujiu was still not pregnant.
Nan Nan said, "Does that mean I will have a brother or sister soon?"
Qian Jiujiu raised his eyebrows: "I think you'd better not have any hope. Okay, let me show you my painting. I spent a whole day drawing it yesterday. It's a long street scene."
It turned out that he came back to hang up the painting. No wonder he came back at this time. Nan Nan felt that there was no hope for his younger brother and sister. He sighed, went to look at the painting, and couldn't help sighing.
"Mother's painting skills are still so good. The scene of the two long streets is so beautiful, even more beautiful than the original long streets!"
Qian Jiujiu was stunned: "What do you mean it's more beautiful than the original Long Street? Isn't the original Long Street like this? This is what I saw from the sky. It's a visual feast. This is the street view I saw from the street. Look, I drew all the lanterns I saw. I plan to have these paintings sent to the palace for your royal grandmother to see. I'm sure your royal grandmother will be very happy."
So this is what she was thinking! Mu Yexiao was somewhat touched. It was because of him that Qian Jiujiu treated the Queen Mother like her own mother: "My lady is thoughtful."
Qian Jiujiu laughed: "Really? Are you touched? Then I'll leave it to you to arrange for someone to send him back."
Nan Nan saw that the two were about to get bored again, so he stood up and said, "I've seen enough, I'm going back to my room."
When he reached the door, Nan Nan suddenly remembered that he had something else to say: "Oh, I have something else to tell Mom and Dad. I have found fifty strong men to serve as guards in the back mountain. Chuan Gu will be watching over them while we build the back mountain. By then, someone may come to disturb us often. Don't be disgusted, Mom and Dad."
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other. Their son was quite quick. They nodded and said, "Got it. Go ahead and do your work. We won't disturb you."
In fact, Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao had secretly visited the cave in the back mountain and confirmed that there was no danger deep in the cave. It was just a magical hot spring. They also met Dabai, who was indeed a spiritual tiger, and then they felt relieved.
Of course, there was no need to tell Nan Nan and Fang Xiaoxi about this. After Nan Nan left, Mu Yexiao couldn't help but ask Qian Jiujiu: "Wife, you said that giving birth should be natural, so why haven't you gotten pregnant yet?"
Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao seriously: "Do you still want children?"
Mu Yexiao shook his head: "No, what I said is true. I don't want you to suffer the pain of having a child. Besides, two children are really enough. I'm just curious, why don't you have any children."
Before Qian Jiujiu could say anything, the rabbit answered first: "Because you can't have too many offspring. One son and one daughter is the number of your offspring. If you have new offspring, the original offspring will decrease. The master has to pay a price for taking on the space, and he must bear this cause and effect."
Because of the space relationship, the meaning of this sentence is very clear. If Qian Jiujiu gives birth to another child, she will either lose Nannan or Beibei, which is something Qian Jiujiu cannot bear.
Qian Jiujiu also heard this reason for the first time. In fact, she had never thought about this question. Now that she knew the reason, her heart skipped a beat and she suddenly thought of her previous anxiety: "Rabbit, with the space, can it guarantee that I won't get pregnant?"
The rabbit also gave a positive answer: "As long as Nanbeibei is still alive, you can't be pregnant, unless..."
Needless to say, the position will be vacated only if one of the two people is in danger. Qian Jiujiu took a deep breath and wondered again: "What's going on with Qingye? It's been so long since the family was founded, and there's still no news coming back?"
The message should be delivered quickly. After all, it was a carrier pigeon, not someone they sent themselves. It shouldn't have been almost a month without any news, unless something bad happened.
Mu Yexiao was also a little confused: "Why don't we go and ask for information?"
Qian Jiujiu also agreed with the news, so he wrote a message to Qingye asking why Beibei hadn't been brought back yet. Just when he was about to tie it to the pigeon, he saw a gray pigeon landed in front of Qian Jiujiu. The pigeon was obviously here to deliver a message.
This is the real trouble. Qian Jiujiu took the note back, took the message from the gray pigeon, and began to read it. He couldn't help frowning, and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense.
When she opened the message, it was indeed from Qing Ye. The message from Qing Ye stated that when she arrived, it was already after the Chinese New Year, and she did not find Bei Bei and Jiang Hu in the village, but she did find the secret guards who were secretly protecting Bei Bei and his group.
And from the secret guards, they learned that Jiang Hu and Bei Bei were missing, and Qing Yue was also missing. When Qing Ye heard that Qing Yue was missing, he was of course worried, so he immediately ordered people to look for her, but five days had passed and she was still not found, so he sent a message back to Qian Jiujiu to let Qian Jiujiu make the decision.
When he heard that Beibei was missing, Qian Jiujiu's whole body shook. The topic they had discussed before, plus Beibei's sudden disappearance, and the thought of how Beibei was beaten with a whip when he disappeared before, he instantly felt heartbroken.
As the saying goes, "Care too much and you will be confused." Qian Jiujiu never thought that the current Beibei is not the Beibei of childhood and has no ability to protect himself.
"No, I want to go and see for myself. What is this girl doing running around with Jiang Hu for no reason? She's missing again. Why is she always in such trouble? Can't she learn from Nan Nan and stay with us obediently?"
As children of Qian Jiujiu, Nan Nan grew up safely and had hardly encountered any danger. But Bei Bei was different. He had been caught all the time since he was a child. What a tragedy!
Mu Yexiao is now a minor official, so he cannot just walk around casually. However, when it comes to his own daughter's affairs, he has lost his sense of propriety.
He immediately dug Nannan out of the bed and looked at her, "Nannan, Beibei is in trouble. All matters in Xianyou Town are in your hands. I will ask your uncle to send a new county magistrate. You just watch over it."
When Nan Nan heard that Bei Bei was in trouble, she suddenly came to her senses: "What happened? What happened to Bei Bei? I want to go too."
Mu Yexiao glared at Nan Nan and said, "There are so many things going on in Xianyou Town, how can you leave all of them? Besides, your mother and I have already gone out to help, why are you following us? You are just adding to the chaos! Be obedient and manage Xianyou Town well. I will go write a letter to your uncle now."
The father's authority was still very great, and he said it directly to Nan Nan, which was speechless. That's right, if both parents work together, Bei Bei will definitely be fine. But he was still worried: "Then when you find Bei Bei, give me a message as soon as possible, I am worried about her too."
Qian Jiujiu agreed: "Okay, after we find Beibei, even if we plan to give birth to her legs, she has to stay with us. This child is really not obedient at all."
Mu Yexiao quickly wrote the letter to the emperor, and then set off with Qian Jiujiu. Only Liu Yifang and Zijiang were notified of their departure, mainly to let them prepare to welcome the new county magistrate.
When the emperor received the letter, he was having lunch with the queen. "Your Majesty, there is a letter from the King of Side by Side."
Hmm? The emperor was still a little confused. His brother hadn't written to him for a long time. He suddenly wrote to him, so there must be something big.
The queen also looked at the emperor with some curiosity. After the emperor opened the letter, his face gradually became gloomy and his brows were furrowed.
"Has something happened?" The Queen noticed that the Emperor looked unhappy and immediately asked with concern.
The emperor looked at the queen's belly. The queen's child was about to be born during this period. If she knew, she would be anxious. "Nothing, I still have some things to deal with. You eat first."
As he was about to stand up and leave, he was stopped by the Queen: "Your Majesty, if you don't tell me, I will feel even more uneasy. Just tell me so that I won't have any wild thoughts. We have been together for so long, and I still don't know you. If there is nothing bad going on, you would not look like this."
As expected, sometimes it is not a good thing for a couple to be too close to each other. The emperor laughed and cried: "It's not a big deal, it's just..."
Seeing that the emperor was still trying to deceive her, the queen was a little dissatisfied. Being pregnant made her prone to wild thoughts, and the emperor's evasiveness made the queen anxious: "Did something happen to Beibei?"
Si Ran, who was standing by, noticed that something was wrong with the Queen and immediately stepped forward to support her: "Queen, don't worry, don't worry, take a deep breath."
Seeing Si Ran's anxious look, the emperor immediately said, "Go and ask the imperial physician and the female physician to come to the palace."
Something bad is going to happen. The emperor held the queen's hand and said to calm her down: "Don't worry, Beibei is missing. Sixth brother sent a message saying that he and his sister-in-law want to go find Beibei together, and asked me to send a new county magistrate."
Upon hearing the news of Beibei's disappearance, the queen couldn't help but widen her eyes: "This is not a big deal. If anything happens to Beibei, it's all my fault. I wish I didn't agree to her going out with Jiang Hu. If something happens to her, how can I explain it to my sixth brother and his wife?"
As expected, the Queen loved Beibei very much. When she heard that Beibei was in trouble, she was very anxious: "Hu Jiang is here! Don't worry, and you don't have to worry either."
The queen couldn't stand hearing this anymore: "If Jiang Hu was useful, would Bei Bei still be missing? It's all his fault. He was useless and that's why he couldn't protect Bei Bei. Ah, my stomach hurts..."
