When Ren Yaoqi heard the words, he couldn't help but look at the princess.
The princess smiled slightly: "There's been a lot of things these days, and my mother and I haven't talked together for a long time. It's okay, there are no outsiders here, it doesn't matter what you say to me."
Sure enough, the maids and maids who were waiting on the side before all retreated without knowing when.
King Yanbei did not mention the matter of establishing the heir to them before announcing the candidate for the heir. Ask more. It's just that Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but think that Xiao Jingxi once asked her if she would be disappointed if he was not the prince of Yanbei.
For Ren Yaoqi, is Xiao Jingxi the son of Xiao Jingxi? Xiao Jingxi is the prince, so she will be the prince's concubine and fulfill her duties. Xiao Jingxi is not the prince, she is her young lady. When he has free time, he reads books and draws or plays chess with her as he does today, and he lives very freely. With high status comes responsibilities, and the latter life is not necessarily less regrettable than the former.
However, Ren Yaoqi did have his own thoughts on this matter. The light-hearted attitude of the King of Yanbei and his concubine towards this matter made Ren Yaoqi feel that it was not a last resort to make the young son the prince. Rather, it's some sort of arrangement.
It's just that Ren Yaoqi couldn't figure it out. Although the little prince was born in the palace and was raised in the queen mother's palace, there was even a half chance that he had already been abandoned, but the prince's concubine Zhao was pregnant. The matter should be true, because the Yanbei Palace has verified it later. But the Yanbei Palace is not at all worried about this posthumous son left by the ancestors? After all, this is the only bloodline left by the deceased prince.
If the Xiao family, like the Ren family, only sees the interests of the family and does not care whether the children and grandchildren live or die, Ren Yaoqi would not be surprised. Yao Qi felt that the lord and the princess were by no means cold-blooded.
Furthermore, Ren Yaoqi felt that the princess's attitude towards the deceased prince was also very cold, and she never mentioned it on weekdays, as if she had forgotten that there was such a person. Regarding this point, Ren Yaoqi vaguely noticed it before marrying into the Xiao family, but at that time, she thought that it might be because the prince did not grow up under the lap of the princess, so the princess did not have enough feelings for him in the heart of the princess. Xiao Jingxi and Xiao Jinglin. But after the matter of Li Shizi this time, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but be suspicious. In short, this incident revealed a strangeness from beginning to end, which made Ren Yaoqi have to think more.
Originally, Ren Yaoqi also wanted to find a chance to ask Xiao Jingxi, and Xiao Jingxi was rarely free at home these few days. It's just that the two of them have been together for the past two days, either reading books or playing chess, or playing the piano and painting. Ren Yaoqi doesn't want to talk about these things anymore.
Now that the princess mentioned it, Ren Yaoqi thought about it in her heart, and was about to speak, but Mama Xin came in, and brought someone behind her.
Ren Yaoqi looked up and saw that the old woman who came in with Mama Xin was actually Mama Gong who helped Ren Yaohua deliver the baby last time. Ren Yaoqi glanced at the princess, and the two stopped talking temporarily.
Mammy Gong narrowed her eyes and looked at the princess and Ren Yaoqi in the main seat, and then stepped forward tremblingly to salute them with the help of Mama Xin. The princess quickly raised her hand to support Mama Gong, and asked Mama Xin to support Mama Gong and sit down on the chair beside her.
Ren Yaoqi has been married to the princess for a while, but she has not seen this Gong mama again. She has asked Xin mama before, but Xin mama only said that Gong mama is old and does not like to go out very much, only in the palace In a small courtyard at the back, Ren Yaoqi asked Mammy Xin to deliver sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus dumplings and snacks to Mama Gong several times.
The princess's attitude towards Mama Gong was very polite and kind. Mama Gong had bad ears. After the two of them had a few words together, Mama Gong suddenly looked at Ren Yaoqi and squinted her eyes with a smile: "Mrs. , thank you for the glutinous rice balls and snacks you gave to the old slave. They are delicious. You don't know, they all bully my old lady and don't give me snacks. "
Hearing this, Nanny Xin said helplessly: "Mother, you are talking nonsense in front of the master again! The doctor said you can't eat too many sweets, and the little girls are all for your own good."
Gong mama nodded: "Yes, those little girls are not disciplined one by one! It's time to change!"
Mother Xin: "..."
Gong mama turned her head and spoke to Ren Yaoqi: "Young madam, come, old slave to give you a pulse."
Ren Yaoqi was stunned for a while, why did she take her pulse when she was so healthy
The princess smiled without saying a word, but Madam Xin said with a smile: "Yes, that's right, since Madam Gong is here today, let's take the pulse of the young lady. Young lady, don't look down on the old lady, the pulse is still very accurate. Yes. After letting her take her pulse, she will be able to conceive in a short time."
It was only then that Ren Yaoqi understood that it turned out that Mama Gong's pulse was to see if her physical condition was suitable for pregnancy. Seeing the princess looking at her with some hope in her eyes, Ren Yaoqi couldn't refuse.
When Mummy Gong took the pulse, her eyes narrowed slightly, and the fingers on her wrist were still trembling. Ren Yaoqi was a little worried about whether she could find the pulse.
Gong mama carefully checked her pulse three times, and then let go of her hand. She even adjusted Ren Yaoqi's sleeves and asked, "Young madam, did you take the prescription that this old slave gave you on time?"
Ren Yaoqi didn't take the medicine she prescribed because she had some doubts about Mama Gong.
Seeing Mummy Gong asking, she said, "Because I was taking other prescriptions for the body before, I was afraid that it would not be good to mix them together, so I wanted to wait for the previous prescription to stop before using it for a while."
Ren Yaoqi didn't lie either. Before getting married, her grandmother also sent her a body conditioning recipe. She ate it for a while, but now it has stopped.
Gong Momo nodded when she heard the words, but said nothing.
The princess smiled and said, "Mommy, how is Yaoqi's body? What prescription did you give her before?"
Madam Gong slowly ate a sweet-scented osmanthus cake that Madam Xin gave her, and said, "Young Madam is still in good shape, there must be no problem with having a baby. The old servant gave you the recipe that you used when you were young, Princess. Son, after eating for a while, the young lady will be able to conceive a baby earlier, and you will be able to suffer a lot less when giving birth in the future."
When the people present heard the words, all eyes were on Ren Yaoqi's stomach, and Ren Yaoqi couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
The princess smiled and said to Ren Yaoqi, "I've used that recipe before. Since Mother Gong gave it to you, you can eat it later. It's useful."
Seeing what the princess said, Ren Yaoqi blushed slightly and responded.
Mammy Gong sat for a while and ate a lot of snacks before being sent back by Mama Xin. Before leaving, she secretly hid a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes in her sleeves, and she was discovered by Mammy Xin and told her about it.
After Mama Gong left, someone came to see the princess from outside, and the topic of Ren Yaoqi and the princess could not continue before Mama Gong came.
The princess said to Ren Yaoqi: "If there is anything you want to know, go back and ask Jingxi, and he will tell you." After a pause, she patted Ren Yaoqi's hand and said, "Good boy, you only need to be with Jingxi. Just live a good life, my mother really wants to hold her grandson. As for other messy things, don't worry, my father and I are still here, so you won't suffer."
Ren Yaoqi thought, the princess said these may be because she was worried that she would have an opinion on the prince's establishment of the heir, so she came to comfort her
After coming out of Jiuyang Hall, Ren Yaoqi returned to Zhaoning Hall, and Xiao Jingxi was still in the study and did not come out.
Ren Yaoqi thought about it, and asked Sang Ling to take out the recipe that Gong Mama gave her last time, and thought about it again. Regarding the aspect of pharmacology, Ren Yaoqi dare not say that he is proficient, but he can still understand a prescription. When he got the prescription before, Ren Yaoqi read it again and found nothing wrong. Now he is careful. After thinking about it, I still found nothing wrong. This house is indeed very beneficial to the woman who is about to conceive.
There is nothing strange about the wangfei's attitude towards Gong mama, and the wangfei seems to agree with her using this formula. Did she think too much before? Is there anything wrong with this mama Gong
Ren Yaoqi was reclining on the soft collapse, holding the square in his hand and thinking about it, suddenly his hand was empty, and the paper in his hand left his hand instantly.
Ren Yaoqi looked up and saw Xiao Jingxi standing in front of her, holding the prescription that she had snatched from her.
"Why are you looking so serious?"
As Xiao Jingxi asked, he lowered his head and glanced at the paper in his hand, frowned when he saw all the names of the medicines, and then looked at Ren Yaoqi carefully.
Ren Yaoqi got up and wanted to get it back, but Xiao Jingxi raised his arm slightly. Ren Yaoqi fluttered in the air, but when he tried to grab it again, Xiao Jingxi hugged him in his arms, and his arms could not move. .
Xiao Jingxi is proficient in pharmacology. After reading the prescription in his hand, he understands what he is holding in his hand. Ren Yaoqi: "Do you want to use this recipe?"
Ren Yaoqi blushed and broke away from Xiao Jingxi's arms, and finally snatched Fang Zi back and wanted to put it away.
Xiao Jingxi followed: "The recipe is good, where did it come from?"
Ren Yaoqi didn't want to pay attention to him at first, but thinking of the person Gong Momo, she still stopped: "This recipe was given to me by Gong Momo."
Xiao Jingxi raised his eyebrows when he heard the words.
Seeing his expression, Ren Yaoqi simply asked, "Who is this Madam Gong?"
