"It's already March, and it's still snowing so heavily."
"No, I saw swallows a few days ago, but I didn't expect the cold spring to come again."
"Come on, come on, have a drink to warm yourself up..."
The door to the inn was closed, and the stove that had been put away was taken out again. At this time, dry wood was being burned inside and crackling.
"Hoo~" The door of the inn suddenly opened, and the cold wind mixed with goose-feather snow blew into the room, causing the guest officer near the door to shiver, and then he wanted to curse, but when he saw the visitor's attire and entourage, he He sat down angrily and said nothing.
"Housekeeper, we have booked all the guest rooms here. We have cooked the hot soup and sent it to the Tianzihao room. The cook we brought with us will borrow your kitchen to make some food and wine. The money will pay for it." A young man dressed as a servant The man stepped forward and said to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper hurriedly responded. One look at these people showed that they were of extraordinary status. Such people generally spend a lot of money. If they take good care of them, they will definitely make a lot of money.
"Are you dining in the hall or in your room?" the shopkeeper asked flatteringly.
Lian Sheng looked at the woman in the cloak in the crowd questioningly. The woman said, "Ning'er and I are going back to the room to rest. If you think the hall is busy, just stay in the hall."
This group of people was Su Ningxin and the others who were rushing to Daming Mansion. The journey was originally smooth, but they didn't expect that they suddenly encountered heavy snow when they were about to arrive at Daming Mansion, so they had to change their plans and look for them nearby first. Stop at an inn to rest.
The shopkeeper asked the waiter to lead the way to arrange the room, and then went upstairs to explain the situation to the guests who had already stayed, and returned the money.
Lian Sheng said that he had reserved all the rooms, which meant that he had reserved the entire store. Naturally, no one else could stay there.
Su Ningxin was originally looking at Lian Sheng. She didn't know if it was her misunderstanding. She always felt that Lian Sheng appeared in front of her too frequently recently. Obviously, she couldn't see him very often before, but now he does appear every day. Appeared in front of me many times.
Su Ningxin, who was supporting the princess, suddenly paused, glanced back at Lian Sheng, and said to the shopkeeper who followed them upstairs, "We don't have many people. If we can accommodate them, we don't have to leave the original place." Please leave the guests and ask them not to cause trouble."
The princess, whose face was hidden under the curtain, patted Su Ningxin's hand and said, "Ning'er has a kind heart."
Su Ningxin, who was also wearing a curtain hat, lowered her head to express that she heard it, but said nothing.
In fact, Su Ningxin said this not because she suddenly felt pity for the guests who were kicked out. After all, they spent money to book the inn, so it was not too much to ask for no one to disturb them.
The shopkeepers usually give 20% more silver to those customers who are kicked out. This town is the only way from Daming Mansion to the capital, so although the town is smaller, there are many customers who pass by and stay in the hotel, and there are many hotels not far away. It's okay to go to a slightly worse inn.
Su Ningxin told the shopkeeper not to chase the person away because she felt the breath in the room on the second floor when she just went upstairs. Perhaps because of the change in mood, the person's breath leaked for a moment. He should be a martial arts master or something like that. Look. He seemed to have profound internal energy. If he hadn't leaked his breath himself, Su Ningxin wouldn't have been able to notice it.
Such people are usually arrogant. If the shopkeeper directly chases people away, they probably won't give up. They just stay here for two days to escape the heavy snow and don't want to cause trouble. There is no need to go to war over such a trivial matter.
"Concubine, be careful." Su Ningxin held Princess Anjun's hand upstairs and reminded her in a low voice.
When she just got off the carriage, Su Ningxin went to help the princess. This support really shocked her. When she felt the pulse of the mother-in-law, it was like a slippery pulse. Is the mother-in-law pregnant
Su Ningxin thought about it carefully. Although the princess already had a 21-year-old son, Chu Jihan, who would have been a grandmother in ancient times, she actually gave birth to Chu Jihan when she was seventeen. She is only thirty-eight now, so it is not surprising that she is pregnant.
Thinking back to the time when the princess fainted more than ten days ago, it was probably not only because she was too shocked to see her, but also because she was pregnant. It was just that she was too young at that time and her pulse was not obvious yet.
Even now, Su Ningxin is not sure. Even if the princess is really pregnant, it is only more than a month old. She still has to wait until she returns to the room to have her pulse checked again before she can be sure.
"What's wrong?" Chu Jihan, who had been arranging carriages and horses at the back, caught up at this moment. Hearing Su Ningxin's words, he whispered next to her and asked.
Su Ningxin chuckled and said mischievously, "I'll tell you later."
Listening to Su Ningxin's silvery laughter, Chu Jihan also felt better. She seemed to have gotten closer to him recently. Sure enough, it was right to let Lian Sheng deliberately walk around in front of her to expose his identity as Ji Chu. Chu Jihan silently praised himself in his heart.
When the group of people all went upstairs, the originally quiet hall began to hear conversations again.
"Tsk tsk tsk, look at how particular this wealthy family is. They even bring bedding with them when traveling." Because the maid behind just now was holding a bundle of bedding in her hands, the guests in the hall and the people at the same table sighed.
The person at the next table sneered, "You are so ignorant. Look at the fabrics and patterns of those baggage bags. I guess these are relatives of the emperor."
"What? Relatives of the emperor and the country?" The voice of the man just now was a little loud because of surprise.
Now everyone was discussing in low voices, and in the room where Su Ningxin noticed that there was a master just now, a man in blue attire with a sword beside him suddenly opened his eyes because of the sound, and then Slowly closed.
The noise downstairs did not affect Su Ningxin and the others, so they asked Shuanghua to put her things in the room. Su Ningxin followed the princess to her room, saying that she wanted to help her diagnose her pulse and see how she was doing.
The princess smiled and said that she was well now. Su Ningxin was too cautious, but Prince An was facing a formidable enemy. He had to let Su Ningxin give the princess a good look before he could feel at ease.
The princess couldn't defeat Prince An, so she could only lie on the bed and let Su Ningxin take her pulse. After a while, Su Ningxin withdrew her hand and was stared at nervously by everyone in the room. After looking around, Su Ningxin said slowly, " The princess’s pulse seems to be pregnant.”
Prince An and Chu Jihan were both shocked. In ancient times, the princess was already a grandmother at her age, so it was really surprising that she could become pregnant.
The princess sat up, grabbed Su Ningxin's hand and said, "Ning'er, this is no joke. I was injured when I gave birth to Xiaohan. Why am I pregnant again after twenty years?"
"Maybe the mother-in-law has healed her body over the years." Su Ningxin consoled her. Although she was not a miracle doctor with human flesh and bones, she would not make a wrong diagnosis of pregnancy.
