On the ninth day when Han Tingxuan and the others set out on the road, a great event happened in the palace!
That means Concubine Lou is one month pregnant!
In other words, on this day, Empress Sun, who had been grounded for a long time, was finally not grounded.
And Empress Sun's brain didn't know how long, the first thing she did not get grounded was to trouble Lou Yanqing!
However, in fact, this matter is also a bit of a coincidence.
Lou Yanqing led a group of palace people to admire the flowers in the imperial garden, and Empress Sun also went.
Empress Sun was also quite unlucky. Although he really wanted to trouble Lou Yanqing, he didn't want to do it at this time.
He has just been lifted from the ban, and he is not a fool, so he is going to trouble Lou Yanqing at this time!
However, since Empress Sun didn't look for it, it doesn't mean that Lou Yanqing won't take the initiative to find trouble!
Empress Sun is a queen after all, and she has a very bad temper. When Lou Yanqing provoked her a little, he exploded. So, for some reason, the two started fighting in the imperial garden!
Then, Lou Yanqing was knocked down by Queen Sun's slap, and she passed out!
Such a big event naturally alarmed the imperial physician, Shen Fangde was invited, and then he was diagnosed and said that Lou Yanqing was pregnant, and she was pregnant for one month!
As a result, the entire harem trembled.
And what about the emperor Tian Yuexi? After knowing that he had a child, the emperor was very excited.
At the same time, the emperor was really angry, and his child was almost lost. So, Empress Sun was grounded again! Of course, this is only the first step!
If it weren't for the fact that the child is fine, I'm afraid he would never have been punished so lightly!
However, this time, the emperor was furious and directly said that before the child was born, Empress Sun was not allowed to step out of the palace! Offenders will be punished!
Empress Sun clamored that it was Lou Yanqing who made the first move and that it was Lou Yanqing who provoked first, but no one believed it.
But what is the truth? In fact, it was Lou Yanqing who provoked first, in fact it was Lou Yanqing who made the move, Empress Sun would only fight back when she was mad.
And this was ordered by Mo Yanzhi!
What is the purpose? Naturally, it was for Concubine Lou to be diagnosed as pregnant!
Looking at it now, the effect is very good, and it is still very good!
After Shen Fangde stepped back, Lou Yanqing had only him and Mo Yanzhi here.
"Your Majesty." Lou Yanqing said with a smile, "Is the minister doing well?"
Mo Yanzhi smiled lightly. "Well, from now on, you should take a good rest in the palace, and don't go out if you have nothing to do. Be careful, so as not to be counted by others."
Although Empress Sun was locked up, it was not that there were no other concubines.
What's more, the fact that Empress Sun herself was locked up doesn't mean he can't take other actions.
In short, it's better for Lou Yanqing to stay inside!
Lou Yanqing naturally understood these reasons, and agreed repeatedly.
At night, Mo Yanzhi received the news from Han Tingxuan's shadow guard that Han Tingxuan and his party will arrive at the border of Qingzhou early tomorrow morning!
Thinking of his husband, Mo Yanzhi gently stroked his palm towards his stomach.
"Baby, your father has gone out, we have to pray for him to come back soon and safely... Do you understand? Baby."
Mo Yanzhi murmured softly, with a gentle expression on his face.
These days, he didn't sleep very well at night, although he told himself time and time again that Han Tingxuan had many capable people around him and nothing would happen, not to mention that they were going there on behalf of the imperial court.
However, I still sometimes wake up from the dream.
In his dreams, he would always see Han Tingxuan and his master covered in blood... So, these days, his sleep quality has been very poor.
Even yesterday, Shen Fangde prescribed medicine for him, and he also drank it, but there is no obvious effect in a short time.
Here, Mo Yanzhi fell asleep in thoughts of Han Tingxuan.
On the other side, Han Tingxuan was also thinking about his husband!
On the second day, Han Tingxuan's team set off again and finally reached the border of Qingzhou.
At this time, Han Tingxuan had changed from a carriage to a soft sedan. Naturally, this soft sedan was brought here when he was on the road, but Han Tingxuan was useless all the time.
But now, Han Tingxuan is obviously not suitable for taking a carriage anymore. Generally, imperial envoys take sedan chairs instead of carriages when they enter the city! The sedan chair is a representative and symbol of identity!
As for Tian Yusu, although his status was higher than Han Tingxuan's, but this time the imperial envoy was Han Tingxuan instead of him, so he still rode in a carriage, which represented the primary and secondary status in a team.
Han Tingxuan is in charge, followed by Tianyusu. These are all important.
Zhou Rong rode a horse and followed Han Tingxuan's sedan chair. The group had just entered the border of Qingzhou, when suddenly there was a commotion, and a man was seen running straight towards Han Tingxuan and his team, While shouting: "Help! Help!"
And behind that man, there was actually a group of people with sticks in their hands. Obviously those people were chasing the man running ahead...
The team of Han Tingxuan who walked in the front all raised their knives.
Although that man doesn't look like an assassin, but this can't be ignored, they can't afford that just in case!
Han Tingxuan obviously also heard the call for help from outside, so he lifted the curtain of the sedan chair.
"Han, go and have a look, save the person first."
"Okay." Han immediately acted.
Those who were chasing the man saw such a large group and knew that they couldn't please him, but instead of turning around and running, they threw their sticks at the man in front.
Seeing that the man was about to hit the back of the man's head, if he hit this time, the man might lose his life! But at this moment, a black shadow flashed by, Han kicked away the stick that was about to fall on the man's head, and then carried the man to the sedan chair in front of Han Tingxuan.
Seeing that the target was gone, the group didn't dare to stay, turned around and ran away, it's just that they escaped!
Soon, under the leadership of Liu Yong, a group of guards surrounded the group of people.
I didn't expect that group of people's martial arts is not weak, but even if they are not weak, they still don't want to beg for so many guards!
Ever since, those people were all arrested and tied up!
And the man who was carried by Han and thrown to Han Tingxuan to kiss him wiped Han off his face. "My lord! Help! Xiaomin's family is under the control of those gangsters, help!"
Han Tingxuan lifted the curtain, and he glanced at the man on the ground.
The other party was wearing a coarse cloth, and his hair was messy. Obviously, he should have been beaten, and his face was covered with two bruises. Where did he just escape from
"Who are you?" Han Tingxuan asked lightly.
The man immediately poured beans and said everything.
There is one of the largest gambling houses in Qingzhou, and the name of this gambling house is Jincai Casino.
This Jincai Gambling Shop really lives up to its name, it is the largest and most profitable gambling shop in Qingzhou.
And this man's name is Zhang Jiu, and he is a thug in the gambling house.
A few days ago, he accidentally discovered a huge secret of the gambling house. This gambling house was actually run by Sun Yuan!
Since then, Zhang Jiu has been trembling. He knows that high officials in the court cannot open casinos at all. This is a serious crime of beheading!
However, he unexpectedly discovered this secret! If he hadn't worked in the casino for more than ten years, I'm afraid he would have been wiped out on the spot.
But even so, his family members were still under surveillance.
In the past few days, Zhang Jiu felt that the atmosphere in Qingzhou City was very tense, and so was the casino he was in.
He himself has been in the casino for a long time, and he also has a little source of information. He knows that some important people have come to Qingzhou, and they are still here to check on Sun Yuan!
Zhang Jiu thought a little bit at that time.
At this moment, Zhang Jiu was surprised to find that his family members were only under surveillance, but now they were all arrested. Those who arrested his family members told him that as long as he was obedient, they would not embarrass his family members.
But Zhang Jiu cared most about his family, so he had a fight with the visitor.
In the end, Zhang Jiu himself was also locked up, but Zhang Jiu was locked up in the basement below the gambling house. He had been in the gambling house for more than ten years, and it was not without any contacts in his hands.
With the help of a trusted brother, Zhang Jiu escaped.
However, he was also discovered, and even his good brother was caught by those people.
Zhang Jiu had no choice but to escape. He ran this way because he knew that Han Tingxuan and the others were coming, and he came here to try his luck. He didn't expect his luck to be really good, and he was actually bumped into it!
"Huh? Jincai Gambling...was opened by Sun Yuan?" Han Tingxuan raised his brows, this is really incredible news! "Yes! I don't dare to lie to my lord. The Jincai Gambling Shop was indeed opened by Sun Yuan! That hateful Sun Yuan even sent someone to arrest the little one's family. Please help the little one to rescue the family!" Zhang Jiugao shouted.
Han Tingxuan invited Zhou Rong. "Master Zhou, do you know about the Jincai gambling house?"
Zhou Rong nodded, then shook his head again. "Qi Wangfu, the lower officials know about Jincai Gambling House, but they don't know who owns Jincai Gambling House."
