The female official said, "Your Majesty, please don't worry about it anymore. The imperial physician said you should relax and take good care of your health."
The queen didn't want to think about it. This child was too unexpected, and Wen Rong broke the balance she had maintained. She didn't have the energy to suppress her family now. She, "Ugh"
As I was thinking about it, I started vomiting again. Tears came out of my eyes and my head started to hurt.
The female official's brows were twisted into knots. The imperial physician didn't dare to say anything, but she knew the burden this pregnancy would bring to the Empress. For the Empress's health, this child was the most important thing, but the Empress wanted to keep the child.
The queen paused for a long time before speaking again, "This baby will definitely be a girl."
The female official carefully supported the empress, "You should rest now."
The queen closed her eyes. She was so tired that she didn't have the energy to worry about anything.
At the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren looked at the prince who was not far from him, "The fourth young master Wen is the champion."
The prince raised his head and said, "I know."
"I am very surprised that the Crown Prince would come to the Ministry of Revenue."
The prince pointed to the account book in his hand and said, "This is what I should do."
He doesn't need his maternal family to be too powerful. The Queen Mother understands this, but the Wen family never does. The Wen family has been blinded by power. If Wen Rong is really smart, the Wen family should keep a low profile after the Queen Mother becomes pregnant. But today the Wen family is too high-profile.
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard. Now that Wen Rong had risen, the emperor would definitely send someone from the Wen family down to balance the power. He just didn't know who it would be. In order to create trouble for the Wen family, the emperor would definitely send someone with weight.
The prince continued to look at the account book carefully. This was the homework his father left for him before he left Beijing. He had a guess in his mind that the war would almost begin when he returned to Beijing, and his father hoped that he could learn more and do a good job in logistics and mobilizing food and grass.
Zhou Shuren also lowered his head to do his job. The emperor met with him alone and his meaning was very clear: prepare more food and other supplies.
In ancient times, wars were also battles of food and logistics. Many battles were lost due to insufficient food and supplies. This was not the first time he had been in charge. He discovered many problems in the last battle in the south. This time he wanted to do better.
Now that the country's main roads have been basically repaired, transportation has been facilitated and they have gained too many advantages. Once a war breaks out, they will have a huge advantage.
Zhou Shuren shook the brush unconsciously, trying to maximize his advantage.
At the Wang family, Yu Lu calculated the time and found that her husband had not come back yet. She kept glancing at the door.
Wang Yun noticed: "Sister-in-law is worried about big brother?"
Yu Lu nodded, "According to the time, your elder brother should have returned long ago."
After hearing this, the old lady of the Wang family said, "Yes, Wang Wei should have come back a long time ago. Why hasn't this child come home yet?"
Tao, "The traffic must be very congested today. I guess it will take a while to get home."
The old lady was a little tired after sitting for almost a whole morning. Her eyes fell on Yu Lu again. Looking at her visibly pregnant belly, the old lady became more energetic.
A quarter of an hour later, Wang Wei finally arrived home and saw the old ancestor, "Grandma, I'm back late."
The old lady saw that Wang Wei's face was pale from the cold, and she felt very distressed. "You must be frozen, come over and warm yourself up."
Wang Wei was indeed freezing cold, but he held back and walked forward, "I'm too cold to go in, just warm up here for a while."
When the old lady saw the maid bringing a hand warmer to Wang Wei, she did not insist. There was a pregnant woman next to her who really couldn't let her get cold.
Wang Wei now felt relaxed all over, and his tone of voice was light as he spoke about what happened on today's list.
Yu Lu looked at her husband quietly. Her husband had passed the imperial examination and felt full of energy again. She had never told her husband that he had been talking in his sleep these past few days. He was either muttering that it was impossible for him to fail or asking why he was ranked last.
The talking in dreams is all about the pressure from the husband. This is the pressure on the eldest son and grandson of aristocratic families. If they enjoy the resources, they must give back to the family.
The young couple sat for a while and then left. The highlight was the return of great-grandfather and grandfather in the evening. They came to congratulate during the day and were entertained by grandma.
Wang Wei returned to his yard. As soon as he entered the house, he couldn't help but pick up his wife and spun her around twice. "My dear, I'm ranked ninth. I didn't bring shame to the Wang family."
Yu Lu patted her husband's shoulder and said, "I know you are excited, and I understand your happiness, but please be careful about my stomach."
The old woman and the maid who came in with them were all shocked. The old woman came to her senses first and shouted, "Ouch, my stomach, my stomach."
Wang Wei carefully put his wife down and touched his nose, "I know my limits."
The old woman pushed her husband aside and asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable there?"
Yu Lu smiled and shook her head, "The child and I are fine."
The old woman breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and said to the young master: "Young master, please don't do any dangerous things next time."
Wang Wei touched his nose and said, "I'll make a note of it."
Zhou family, Zhulan also knows whether anyone from the Zhou family is on the list. This time, there are three people in total for reference. All three are quite old, the oldest is 43 years old. The oldest, Chang Qi, made the list, but his ranking is very low.
In the evening, Zhou Shuren mentioned Chang Qi, "When I met him, I asked him if he wanted to stay in Beijing after graduating from high school."
Zhulan asked curiously, "How did he answer?"
"He said he didn't want to stay in the capital."
Zhu Lan said: "The incident at Mingshan has made the clan avoid the capital."
"Yeah, it's a good thing they're afraid."
Zhulan thought of something else, "Did you know that Prince Liang is ill? I heard that he is so sick that he can't get out of bed."
Zhou Shuren paused while flipping through the book. "I really haven't heard of it. The Prince of Liang's mansion has been too low-key in recent years. Prince Liang only appears at important court meetings, and it's not easy to see him at other times."
Zhu Lan said: "The Queen had a very difficult pregnancy. I heard from my daughter that the Queen has not seen anyone."
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "The Queen was injured when she was the Crown Princess. It should be related to the Prince Liang's Mansion. This is because Prince Liang was afraid that the Emperor would remember and cause trouble, so he made himself sick first."
"I thought so too. By the way, is it really the King of Chu who is responsible for accompanying the Crown Prince out of the capital?"
Zhou Shuren laughed, "You know more about the news at home than I do."
"Tell me first if this news is true?"
Zhou Shuren shook his head, "The Emperor trusts Prince Qi more than any other prince."
Zhulan understood, "So it was the Prince of Qi who accompanied the Crown Prince out of the capital."
"Well, this is not a good job. If you do it well, there will be no reward. If you don't do it well, it will be a crime. Now the grassland tribes are very ambitious. Accompanying the prince out of the capital is a hard job."
Zhu Lan frowned slightly, "The Emperor still insists that the Crown Prince leave the capital at this time?"
Zhou Shuren put away the book and stopped reading, "The emperor has his own thoughts."
The emperor is not someone who would gamble with his son, and he believes that the emperor will make arrangements.
Zhou Shuren could also guess the emperor's thoughts. The prince was still too young and had not experienced any wind and rain. How could a sapling grow into a towering tree? This was also a rare opportunity for growth. Once the war was over, it would be difficult to find opportunities for the prince in the future. The emperor was also worried about the prince.
