What Hu Zhifei brought was an extremely old book. I don't know where it came from, the pages are yellowed, and even the cover is gone.
He excitedly pointed to one of the passages and said: "Beyond the South China Sea, there are the merpeople, who live near the water, regardless of gender, and their appearance is stunning. Those with red stripes can give birth. Thousands of gold."
With a stunning appearance, red lines, and fertility, all of them can correspond to An Changqing's current situation.
Xiao Zhige carefully read the line several times: "South China Sea merman? Why have I never heard of it?"
He has heard a lot of the legends of the merman handed down from ancient times. It is said that the merman has a fish tail, webbed fingers, ugly appearance, fierce temperament, and likes to feed on people. Such legends have evolved over thousands of years, and there are many versions, but I have never heard of a merman.
"I haven't heard of it either, but I have a friend who might know." Hu Zifei said solemnly: "Do you remember that I once painted a portrait of the princess?"
In order to treat Concubine Yu, An Changqing went to Hu Shifei's medical clinic. Hu Zhifei did not ask for a fee when he visited the doctor at that time, but only asked to paint a portrait of An Changqing. At that time, he didn't know that An Changqing was the princess.
"Remember." Xiao Zhige nodded, the portrait is still properly kept.
Hu Zhifei stroked his moustache and said, "Actually, I asked for a portrait of the princess because a friend of Yuze asked me to find a person in the painting. The person in the painting is 60-70% similar to the princess. I When I saw the princess at that time, I didn't know the identity of the princess, so I wanted to paint the portrait of the princess and send it to him."
I just didn't expect that An Changqing turned out to be the princess of the Northern War that he had never met, and the portrait was taken away by Xiao Zhige. In addition, the friend was from Yuze, and if he rashly gave the portrait of Princess Daye to others, he might cause trouble. He just stopped thinking about it, and just assumed that there was no such thing.
He had already forgotten about this incident, but when he found the record in this book today, he suddenly remembered the copy of the small portrait in the letter sent to him by his friend. There is also a fish scale pattern on the forehead.
"This is the small statue, please take a look at it." Hu Zhifei said, and took out the letter from his sleeve and flattened it.
Sure enough, there was a man drawn on the letter, with only half of his profile face, and the drawing was not very careful, only a few rough outlines. However, he has six or seven similarities with An Changqing, especially the position of the small mole at the moment is the same.
The only difference is that the pattern of the person in the painting is on the forehead, which is vaguely hidden by the temples. An Changqing's red stripes are behind his ears.
Xiao Zhige and An Changqing looked at each other, and invariably thought of the portrait that Xue Wuyi sent someone to show his favor when he was in Liangzhou. The forehead of the person on the portrait was covered by the hair, and there were no red lines on fish scales. But it is more likely that the red stripes are hidden by the hair and are not exposed.
Xiji and Yuze were all involved, and they seemed to be looking for the person in the painting. Xiao Zhige's eyes were deep, and he said solemnly: "This matter should not be made public, I will send someone to investigate."
Seeing that his face was not good, Hu Zifei responded and said, "Do you need me to send a letter to ask the identity of the person in the painting? My friend is a traveling doctor who loves to collect some strange rumors. Maybe he will Know the news of the merpeople."
"Yes, don't reveal the news of the princess."
Hu Zifei responded and looked at An Changqing's stomach again, hesitatingly said, "Then Wang Fei wants to… want to have an abortion first?"
As soon as these words came out, both of them were silent.
An Changqing stared at her stomach, as if she wanted to touch but didn't dare to touch it. After a long time, she said in a complicated tone, "Really... have children?"
At this time, he couldn't say what his mood was, and it would be no sense to say that he was not happy at all. After all, if he could have a child who was connected by blood to Xiao Zhige, he would still be happy. But now that the child is about to come out of his stomach, it really makes him unable to calm down. After all, it didn't just mean that he wanted to conceive and have a child as a man, it also meant that... he might be an alien.
"You prescribe the recipe first. The rest... I'll talk about it after the merpeople are figured out. If it's harmful to the princess' body..."
He didn't finish what he said later, but Hu Zifei already understood what he meant.
Since marrying An Changqing, Xiao Zhige has never expected to have his own blood. Now that he heard that An Changqing might be pregnant, his first reaction was not happiness, but deep worry.
Since ancient times, it has never been heard that men can give birth to children, and women's childbirth is still a walk before the gates of hell. Not to mention An Changqing who is a man? Moreover, the person in the painting involves Xiji and Yuze, and An Changqing is so similar to the person in the painting, not to mention whether it is a blessing or a curse.
Xiao Zhige did not want An Changqing to be involved. His brows wrinkled deeply. If this unexpected child might affect An Changqing, he would rather not.
Perhaps seeing what he was thinking, An Changqing reached out and held his hand, but instead came to comfort him: "It's useless to worry about it now, it's better to let it go."
After the initial surprise and unease passed, An Changqing became more open. The left and right children were already in the womb. They brought him into this world, and they couldn't easily give up on him. And... If there is a child who is connected to Xiao Zhige's blood, it's actually not bad.
In the last life, Xiao Zhige did not have a concubine. Later, in order to establish him as the queen, he fought against the ministers, and he did not have his own blood until his death. In this life, Xiao Zhige will definitely become emperor. Although he can adopt a clan son, if he can have his own bloodline, he will face much less pressure.
An Changqing tentatively touched his lower abdomen, it was still flat, it was hard to believe that a little life had been conceived in it. The mood calmed down, but the joy that he realized later came up, An Changqing took his hand and pressed it on his belly, but said on his mouth: "Other people's pregnancy is a big happy event, why is the lord unhappy? Just now Don't say it again in the future, if the child hears it, he might be sad."
Xiao Zhige laughed at him, and his expression relaxed a lot: "It's only been over three months for Ding Potian, what can you understand?"
Seeing that they had adjusted their mentality, Hu Zhifei cleared his throat and coughed: "Then I will prescribe a few contraceptive pills to the princess first, and I will also write down the things that I should not eat, and tell the kitchen to pay attention. After he finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Zhige and said sternly: "Besides... it's better to keep things in moderation, don't be too violent."
An Changqing: "..."
Pulling out his hand from Xiao Zhige's palm, An Changqing blushed slightly and responded.
Hu Zifei gave a good recipe, and before leaving, he said to bring Yu Xiao. Yu Xiao has followed him for a while, and has already been able to identify commonly used medicinal materials and boiled medicines. Also, he said that his father in the family was pregnant, so it would be best to send her to take care of An Changqing at this time.
Early the next morning, Yu Xiao came to the General's Mansion with the medicine. He looked very happy. Seeing An Changqing salute first, his bright eyes kept staring at An Changqing's stomach.
Remembering the last time he wanted to say hello to the baby, An Changqing called him to him and asked curiously, "Can you really feel the baby in your belly?"
"Yes!" Yu Xiao nodded and described the feeling to him seriously: "It's like a small fish swimming around in its stomach."
An Changqing was stunned: "A fish?"
Yu Xiao tilted his head and thought about it seriously: "No, it's just a bit like, small, very lively." The feeling is very magical, he also said that it is not too specific, and can only try to describe it in words.
Hearing that it was not a fish, An Changqing was relieved. He finally accepted that he might be an alien who could have children, and it would be too exciting to tell him that he was actually carrying a fish.
Yu Xiao seemed to really like children and was chatting all the time. After getting permission from An Changqing, he carefully touched his stomach for a while.
An Changqing watched him pursing her lips, her cheeks flushed with excitement. He also laughed contagiously.
When Yu Xiao was over excited, he pulled Yu Xiao to sit beside him again, and asked about his father in detail.
When Yu Xiao's two fathers passed away, he was only six years old, and many of his memories were already blurred. But according to him, he originally lived in the mountains with his eldest daddy and his little daddy. The eldest daddy hunted in the mountains, and the younger daddy taught in the village below the mountain. Although the family of three is not rich, they are also very happy.
It's just that the little daddy has always been in bad health, and later became pregnant with a baby, and his body became even weaker. During that time, the atmosphere in the family was very low. When the baby was born, Yu Xiao didn't see it. He only remembered that the eldest daddy told him from the house that neither the little daddy nor the baby survived.
Later, he was the only one left to depend on his eldest father. Father and son passed two years, but unexpectedly, the eldest daddy suddenly fell ill and couldn't bear the illness. Before he died, he had no choice but to ask him to go down the mountain with the remaining money to seek refuge with his friends, but he didn't want Yu Xiao to be caught on the way to find someone. abducted.
"That's all I remember." Speaking of the past, Yu Xiao felt a little depressed. However, the child's emotions come and go quickly. He quickly became happy again, and said to An Changqing: "The baby in the princess' belly is very powerful, I can feel it!"
An Changqing understood his comfort and touched his head with a smile. Speaking of which, Yu Xiao and his little daddy may be the same family as him, so Yu Xiao can sense the child in his belly.
He thought of his mother again, and since childhood, the Yu family had never mentioned anything similar to him. He didn't know if Yu didn't know about these things, or if he knew but didn't tell him.
"Sword Comes"
He pondered for a while, and asked An Fu to take the pen and ink, preparing to write another letter and send it back to Yejing to ask.
When An Changqing finished writing the letter, Xiao Zhige also came back, carrying An Changqing's usual favorite pastries in his hand. Yu Xiao was a little afraid of him, and when he saw him coming back, he ran out under the pretext of boiling the medicine.
Seeing this, An Changqing made fun of him: "If you keep your face black, children will be afraid of you in the future."
Xiao Zhige looked helpless, opened the oiled paper bag and placed it on the small table beside him: "How is today? Is there any discomfort?"
He has been like this since Hu Zifei left yesterday. Even more nervous than An Changqing, for fear that he would have a headache and feel uncomfortable, he wanted to ask twenty times a day.
An Changqing was annoyed by the answer, nodded perfunctorily, and changed the subject: "Did the lord send a letter to Xi Di?"
After Liangzhou and his party, Xiao Zhige and Xue Wuyi reached a tacit agreement, because the two leaders of Bai Dingjun still needed Xue Wuyi's help to escort them to Liangzhou, and now the two sides have frequent exchanges. In addition, this portrait was drawn from Xiji, so Xiao Zhige sent another letter to ask Xue Wuyi for news about the merpeople. At the same time, a spy was sent to Yuze to investigate secretly.
"I have already sent someone to deliver the letter, and it will probably take some time to reply." Xiao Zhige said, "I also sent the letter to Yejing, and asked people to find a way to search the books in the palace to see if there is any record of the merpeople. "
If the person in the painting, Yu Xiao's father, and An Changqing are really related to the merpeople, it makes no sense that they have never heard any news about the merpeople for so many years. It is only in an old book that a sporadic passage can be found. An ethnic group, unless it hides in the deep mountains and forests and never deals with outsiders, it is impossible not to leave traces of existence.
What's more, with the appearance of the person in the painting, and involving Xiji and Yuze, it is absolutely impossible to be an ordinary person. Such a person, such a group, after hundreds of years, there is no record of it today, so there is only one possibility - the relevant records have been destroyed artificially.
What is certain now is that the person in the painting has a relationship with the first king of the dungeon, Xue Chang. Xue Chang and Huai Shuan once broke up with □ □, and together they sentenced Da Ye to start a new business... Originally, Xiao Zhige only thought that the two had ambitions to become kings on their own. However, this portrait involved Xiji and Yuze at the same time, but there was no Da Ye alone, which made Xiao Zhige have to think deeply.
The author has something to say: Cowardly: I'm going to be a father (secretly happy
Cowardly: But when you become a father, you can't have sex (frowning)
cowardly... (gets entangled
