Licorice blushed even more, and Ji Man didn't refuse, and took the jade pendant back with a smile. She also embroidered the handkerchief herself, with a snow-capped mountain at the top of the handkerchief, which was specially used to wrap various gifts and stuff the sleeves. However, it can be taken out alone.
It was not early, and the person was found, so I didn't make much publicity, and planned to report back to the old lady the next day.
When the lights were turned off, Ji Man called to the wick: "When you went out to get my medicine today, what happened in the middle?"
Wick blinked: "It's nothing."
After a pause, he patted his thigh again and remembered: "I just bumped into Sister Danzhu and talked to her for a while. What's wrong, master?"
Light Bamboo, Cedar Courtyard. Ji Man closed her eyes, she knew that Qian Lianxue was the only one who knew she was pregnant, and she couldn't blame anyone else.
"Nothing, you all go to rest."
"Hey." Lampwick didn't notice anything strange, happily pulled the lost and recovered licorice and went to sleep.
Licorice was still a little scared, and slept next to the lamp core at night. Seeing her worried face, the lamp core pulled her to ask what was wrong.
"It's okay." Licorice lowered her eyes, covered her heart and turned over.
How could a maid of such a low status like her want to show off to the young master. Master Biao went there to solve the case, not just for her.
But the shadow of that man still couldn't help appearing in his mind, his tall body was tall and tall, and his face turned slightly sideways made people almost forget to breathe. He took her onto the horse when she was most desperate, and comforted her in a low voice not to be afraid.
The two words are so light and fluffy, she is really not afraid.
If you want to live with someone in your heart, it's as simple as that.
Ji Man didn't sleep very well at night, so he went to the old lady's place very early the next day, and dragged the old lady to secretly talk about saffron.
"You suspect it's Lianxue?" The old lady shook her head and said, "It can't be hers, it should be a misunderstanding."
Ji Man didn't expect the old lady to have such a reaction, so he didn't say much in surprise, but asked tentatively, "Why is it impossible for Lianxue to harm me?"
"Lianxue is the most kind-hearted person in this backyard. Didn't you see that she was the only one willing to take in Wen Wan when she was haunted last time?" The old lady twirled the prayer beads and said, "She is also kind-hearted, maybe the people around her are kind-hearted." What malicious thoughts, but it should have nothing to do with her."
The old lady lived twenty years longer than her, so naturally she should be more accurate in judging people. Ji Man couldn't help but doubt herself a little, did she think wrong? In other words, Clover lied to her from the very beginning, pulling Qian Lianxue to lie down
So far, she has indeed not had any conflicts with Qian Lianxue.
Ji Man was confused by the old lady's words.
Afterwards, more and more people came to greet them. Ning Mingjie and Ning Yuxuan both came, and Ji Man also told about Ning Mingjie's rescue of licorice yesterday.
"Mingjie made great contributions again this time." Mo Yuhou said with a smile: "Jing Zhaoyin's most troublesome case was entrusted to him by the emperor, but it was solved within a few days."
Wen Wan stood aside, looking at Ning Mingjie with admiration in his eyes, and even a little pride from nowhere, as if subconsciously, he felt that this person was his own.
Ning Mingjie said in a low voice: "It was a coincidence that this case was solved, thanks to Sang Yu. If she were timid and forgot where the thief was going, Mingjie would not be able to solve this case."
Ji Man looked at him and smiled slightly.
Ning Mingjie looked up and smiled back at her.
The look of the two of them expressing affection and heart, Mo Yuhou's face darkened: "What does this have to do with Sang Yu?"
"Didn't you just say that? Sang Yu happened to be on the street and the licorice was robbed, so she must have seen it." The old lady interjected, "You were distracted just now, and you didn't understand right now."
Of course Ning Yuxuan was not angry about this, she pursed her lips and didn't know what to say. It could be said that Nie Sangyu didn't obey women's morals, but he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, every day he was well arranged in and out of the house, and he got the unanimous praise of the whole house. But she clearly doesn't have him as a husband in her eyes, on the contrary, she has a pleasant face and flirtatious glances towards other men.
Somewhat annoyed, Ning Yuxuan went to Feiwan Pavilion in the afternoon without any gentleness.
Ji Man was manicuring his nails, and was a little surprised to see him coming: "Master Hou is healed?"
Ning Yuxuan coughed twice and sat at the table: "Not yet."
What are you doing here? Pretending to be weak? Ji Man rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Will I ask my concubine to boil the tonic for you again later?"
This time she asked Dr. Li to come over and personally gave her two packs of anti-fetal medicine. After confirming that there was no problem, she asked the licorice wick to boil the medicine.
Remembering that Mo Yuhou drank the anti-fetal medicine last time, Ji Man still felt a little happy.
Ning Yuxuan didn't object at all: "If your girl happens to be boiling medicine, you can cook a bowl for me."
Ji Man almost laughed out loud, but pressed his lips tightly to hold back the laugh, and then said: "Okay, I'm going to order the lamp wick right now."
Mo Yuhou looked at her back with some doubts in his eyes. When she came back, he said, "You seem to have gained weight recently."
Ji Man paused, and said with a smile: "The food in the mansion is good, and it's hard for me not to be fat."
"Did you get your monthly letter from last month?" Ning Yuxuan asked innocently.
"Here we come." Ji Man blinked: "Why does Lord Hou care about this?"
Mo Yuhou shook his head: "It's okay, I'm just thinking, it would be nice if you have children sometime."
hypocritically.
Ji Man complained in his heart, still with a smile on his face: "I am looking forward to it too, if I can conceive a child, I will definitely protect it with my life, so that no one will touch a hair."
Ning Yuxuan was stunned, and smiled lightly: "The life of your son is not as important as yours, how can you use your life to protect it."
If these words are in the ears of ordinary couples, they are love words. Look, what a husband, he protects the big but not the young.
But Ji Man knew that Ning Yuxuan wished that Nie Sangyu would have no children for the rest of his life, but still sit in the position of mistress and let him manipulate him.
Subconsciously rubbed her belly, the time was coming, she waited for news from the palace, and then told Mo Yuhou about her pregnancy.
At that time, it will be four months. Unless Ning Yuxuan wants to take Nie Sangyu's life together, he will not dare to do anything.
"Master, the medicine is ready." Deng Xi and Licorice brought in two bowls of medicine.
Ji Man laughed again, told them to cool the medicine, took it up and said to Mo Yuhou, "Master Hou, come here."
Let's make this bowl of anti-fetal medicine!
Mo Yuhou was a little distracted, thinking about something, he really picked up the bowl to touch her, and then slowly finished the bowl of medicine.
Ji Man pointed at this matter and laughed all day long.
But Ning Yuxuan didn't know anything. Seeing that Ji Man was in such a good mood, his mood was even worse. After all, she was never happy because of herself.
In the last critical month, Ji Man didn't eat anything indiscriminately, and asked Dr. Li to come over almost every day. The saffron failed last time, and she has no evidence that it was done by Xuesongyuan, and the one from Xuesongyuan has no follow-up, and they have been living in peace.
At the end of the month, Ji Man finally waited for the news that Concubine Nie had given birth prematurely.
Premature birth is not a good thing, it must be caused by others. But Concubine Nie's life is hard, and she gave birth to a child who was less than eight months old, but the mother and child were safe.
The baby who was brought into the world at less than eight months was, fortunately, a boy.
Concubine Nie almost died, she managed to save the child, she cried and hugged the child and begged the emperor to call the shots. Her eating was tampered with, but fortunately it was not serious, but she was born prematurely. All kinds of evidence point to the queen.
The emperor was overjoyed and was bound to be furious. Although the queen could not abolish it easily, the emperor took away her phoenix seal and made Concubine Nie the imperial concubine.
The power of the empress and the imperial concubine ebbed and flowed, and the Nie family was in the limelight at the moment. In addition, the third prince had been favored by the emperor recently, and he took him to participate in politics, all of which made the prince's party worried.
If things go on like this, it is not impossible for the crown prince to be replaced by someone else.
But these are not related to Ji Man's business, her aunt's promotion to imperial concubine treats her only good and not bad, and with this opportunity, she can finally disgust Mo Yuhou and go to his Beiyuan , leaning shyly in Ning Yuxuan's arms in front of a gentle face, and softly shouted: "Yuxuan..."
Mo Yuhou felt that Nie Sangyu might be broken today, but he didn't push her away, he just sat up straight and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I..." Ji Man glanced sideways at the gentle and distorted expression, more and more hesitant to speak, twisting his body to imitate her and act delicately, and his tone was also sticky: "I have something to say."
"Well, what are you talking about?" Ning Yuxuan felt a little funny, and looked at what she had to say with his chin propped up.
Ji Man stretched out his hands to cover his slightly undulating stomach, blushing on his cheeks, and said shyly: "I have the flesh and blood of Master Hou~"
Ning Yuxuan's smile froze, Wen Wan next to her was even more startled, and looked at her in shock.
"... When did it happen?" Ning Yuxuan looked down at her stomach.
Ji Man smiled gloatingly, but half covered his face, pretending to blame himself and said, "It's all my fault for being too careless. It's been four months since I got my body."
Mo Yuhou almost turned her off, who is he lying to! She's four months old, won't she know? The last time I asked her, didn't she say that she had received a monthly letter
Wen Wan trembled her lips, and immediately turned and ran out. Ning Yuxuan didn't have time to take care of her little daughter's emotions, so she just stared at Ji Man.
Ji Man half-covered his face and laughed tremblingly, glanced at Mo Yuhou's expression, and asked him aggrievedly: "Didn't Lord Hou say last time that I hope I will have a child soon? Why?" Now, it's this expression instead? Master Hou doesn't want this child?"
"No." Ning Yuxuan stood up, looked at her with a complicated expression and said, "You go to the old lady first, I will go to the palace to invite the imperial doctor."
