The evidence Chu Xiuming has is enough. Although he wants to wipe out those people, he knows that it is impossible. Liang Cheng's lineage is all trusted by Emperor Cheng, and the people above him are also trusted by Emperor Cheng. Therefore, Chu Xiuming must grasp one of them. How to make Emperor Cheng feel distressed but within the tolerable range.
So Chu Xiuming is very busy, he has to finish things as early as possible in the morning, and go back to accompany his wife in the afternoon, not at Shen Jin's request. In fact, for Shen Jin, it is enough for Shen Jin to have Mother Zhao and the others in the morning and see Chu Xiuming at night , It’s just that Chu Xiuming felt that he left when Shen Jin found out that he was pregnant, just like what Shen Jin said, she came back only when her belly was big, and she felt owed in her heart, not to make up for it, but to treat Shen Jin better.
Compared with Chu Xiuming, Shen Jin has nothing to do all day long, eats after waking up every day, plays with the little one after eating, and then waits for her husband to come back to have lunch together, after eating, she goes for a walk with her husband, and then Shen Jin Go back and listen to your husband talk about the art of war and take a nap.
When Shen Jin fell asleep, Chu Xiuming went to discuss matters with his subordinates, then estimated the time, went to wake up his little lady to accompany her for a walk, and carried him back when the little lady was tired.
"Ah?" With Chu Xiuming's pampering and Zhao Momo's meticulous care, Shen Jin always felt that he was not as smart as when he was in Prince Rui's Mansion, so when he heard Anping's words, he was stunned before he realized it. Who is Shi, "I gave birth, is it a boy or a girl?"
"If you go back to Madam, it's a boy." Anping said, "Why don't you call in the person who announced the good news?"
Shen Jin nodded after thinking for a while and said, "Well, are you ready for the ceremony?" Then she looked at Mother Zhao.
Zhao Nanny said, "It's ready."
"Oh." Shen Jin always felt that something was wrong, but couldn't think about it for a while, took a sip from the cup and said, "Then I will ask the question and let the person who gave the gift go back with this person."
Zhao Momo complied and said, "The old servant will check again."
"En." Shen Jin nodded and put the cup back on the table.
Anping said, "Servant, go and bring him up."
Shen Jin nodded again, and when An Ning and a few maids were left in the room, he suddenly asked, "I still feel something is wrong."
An Ning asked, "Madam, what do you think is wrong?"
"I can't remember." Shen Jin rubbed his stomach and sat up, "Forget it, it shouldn't be important."
An Ning saw that Shen Jin had figured it out by herself, so she didn't say any more. She just tidied up the blanket covering her legs, helped Shen Jin put on her shoes, and stood aside. People brought it up, and it turned out to be Mama Li who was next to Concubine Xu. Seeing Mama Li, Shen Jin smiled, kicked off her shoes and said, "If Anping had told me that Mama Li was here, I wouldn't have to. Shoes on."
Li's mother laughed and said, "Seeing that the princess looks so good, the side concubine is relieved."
Shen Jin nodded and said, "How is mother?"
"The side concubine has been a little busy these days, but everything else is fine." Mother Li said.
Shen Jin snorted and said, "By the way, Mrs. Li's child is born, no wonder mother is busy."
After talking about some of the children's situation, Mother Li said, "The side concubine took some time to make some small clothes. I said I took the time to send them to the princess in the past few days. It happened that I got good news today, so the old slave invited an errand to come over. gone."
Shen Jin urged, "Bring it to me quickly."
Mother Li responded with a smile, and Anping let the little maid who was waiting outside come in. She was holding a bundle in both hands, and Anping took it and put it next to Shen Jin, then opened it, and there were small clothes, shoes, and The tiger-head hat was soft to the touch. Shen Jin took the small shoes and gestured on his hand, then took a look at the hat, and finally picked up the clothes and laughed, "It's so small."
"Because of Mrs. Li's affairs, these things haven't had time to be washed yet." Mother Li looked at Shen Jin's appearance, full of comfort.
Shen Jin nodded and said, "Put it away, Anping, and come back and tell Mother Zhao."
"Yes." Anping carefully packed the things.
Shen Jin looked at the little maid who came with a bundle, and said, "Anping took someone down to drink some warm soup, and then bring a bowl of hot soup to Mama Li, by the way, Mama Li, sit down, I keep forgetting things lately. "
Mother Li doesn't care about these little things at all. Besides, Concubine Chen often laments in the room that other people's pregnancy is stupid for three years, but her own daughter is already stupid enough. If she continues to be stupid, she will not be stupid for three years. Thanks Chu Xiuming didn't mind.
After Mama Li sat down, Shen Jin asked, "Mama Li, do you think my younger brother was prettier when I was younger or I was prettier when I was younger?"
Mother Li laughed when she heard the words, "Of course the princess is beautiful. The princess's white and tender face was flushed not long after she was born."
Shen Jin was satisfied, An Ning came out holding a brocade box, Shen Jin said, "This is the golden lock that my husband and I prepared for my younger brother."
Mother Li took it with both hands and said, "The old servant will hand it over to the side concubine herself."
Shen Jin nodded, thought suddenly and asked, "Wait, why do I feel that it's not yet the day when Mrs. Li gives birth? By the way, is Mrs. Li okay?" Li's mother said that Concubine Chen said about the child, but There was no mention of Mrs. Li's matter at all, Shen Jin listened for a long time before realizing it, and also remembered why she always felt something was wrong just now.
Mother Li said, "There was a little accident, so the day of Li's mobilization has been brought forward."
Shen Jin was surprised, and looked at Mama Li, who said, "The third young master somehow found the pair of cups that Uncle Yongning gave to the prince. It happened that the prince came back, and the third young master accidentally broke the cups."
"He's out of luck." Shen Jin said with certainty, it wasn't her who gave the cup away anyway, Shen Jin didn't feel distressed at all, and changed his position while hugging his stomach and said, "How did the father look like at that time?"
"It's a pity that this old slave doesn't know." Mother Li said, "But I heard that even Princess Rui was alarmed."
"But why is it related to the Li family again?" Shen Jin was even more confused.
Mother Li sighed and said, "I don't know what the third young master thinks, but someone said something beside him, thinking that he was punished because Li had a child in his belly, he is not the youngest in the family, my lord I don't like him anymore, so after seeing Li Shi, I pushed her... "
Shen Jin was stunned for a moment before exclaiming, "Ah..." Mrs. Li is really an innocent disaster.
Mama Li nodded, said a few more words, and left. It was Anping who sent her off. As soon as Mama Li left, the smile on Shen Jin's face disappeared, and she suddenly asked, "How long is it for lunch?"
"Madam is hungry?" Looking at Shen Jin's expression, An Ning asked worriedly.
Shen Jin shook his head, but didn't say anything else, but lay sideways on the imperial concubine's couch, touching his stomach with one hand, An Ning covered Shen Jin with a small quilt, and asked, "Is Madam uncomfortable? How about a servant girl?" Did you call the doctor?"
"No, I'll rest for a while." Shen Jin whispered.
An Ning didn't speak anymore, she was a little worried, and when Anping came in, she talked to Anping, went out to look for Zhao Nanny who was in the kitchen, whispered a few words, Zhao Nanny frowned, and said, " I see, you and Yue Wen should go after him and ask if something happened to Mrs. Li."
"Yes." An Ning complied, and hurried to call Yue Wen. Yue Wen was brought out by Chu Xiuming, and he stayed with Shen Jin since he came to the capital.
Zhao Mama didn't go in right away, but waited for the green jade bean cake to come out of the pan, then put the snacks in the food box and walked into the house with her hands. After entering, she saw Shen Jin lying on the concubine's couch with her legs slightly curled up Looking at the plum branches in the porcelain vase not far away, her eyes were a little confused and she didn't know what she was thinking. Zhao Nanny nodded to Anping, Anping took the food box and put it aside, and brought the emerald jade bean cake inside. After coming out, Mother Zhao said softly, "Ma'am, do you want to have a taste of the pastry just out of the pan?"
Shen Jin pursed her lips and said, "I don't really want to eat."
Zhao Nanny asked Anping to bring a cake and put it in front of Shen Jin. She saw Shen Jin's nose move, looked at it and said, "Let's eat some."
It seems that the problem is not very serious. Mother Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, helped Shen Jin to sit up, covered her with the quilt again, then put the pastry aside, and then went to twist the cloth towel to clean Shen Jin's hands. Jin pinched a piece of pastry and ate it, and asked, "Nurse, do you think giving birth will be painful?"
"It will hurt a little." Zhao Momo said, "But madam, don't worry, the general has prepared everything thoroughly, and even specially invited the doctor to the mansion."
"Oh." Shen Jin nodded after thinking for a while, and stopped using it after eating two yuan.
Mama Li and the others didn't go far, and brought things with them, so Yue Wen and An Ning quickly caught up. Mama Li sighed and told An Ning about everything, "The princess and the side concubine don't want the princess to know about this. , I'm afraid it will affect her."
An Ning said, "Don't worry, Ms. Li, she just saw that Madam's expression was wrong, and she was afraid that she might have guessed something, so she came here to ask."
Mother Li nodded, "Princess...the mind has always been delicate, and it was the old slave who showed his feet."
An Ning comforted, "When Uncle Yongning comes back, this servant will tell Uncle Yongning about the matter. With Uncle Yongning here, Madam will be fine."
Mother Li didn't say anything else, seeing that An Ning had nothing to ask, she led her away first.
Yue Wen couldn't help frowning and said, "What's all this?"
An Ning didn't know how to say it. If it was possible, neither Princess Rui nor Concubine Chen would want Shen Jin to know about it, but the addition of a child in Prince Rui's mansion couldn't be kept secret. If only Shen Jin didn't know about it, I'm afraid it would be even worse Okay, so the person who came to report only mentioned the child and Concubine Chen, who knows that even so, the wife still saw it.
When the two of them came back, they felt a little heavy. Yue Wen waited outside, and when An Ning went in, she returned to her usual appearance. Zhao Mama saw An Ning, her eyes flashed, and she asked, "Madam, what do you want to do at noon?" of?"
Shen Jin said, "Get some sour soup noodles."
"Okay." Zhao Momo replied with a smile, "Then this old slave will go get ready."
Shen Jin nodded and said, "Anping, bring me some muslin cloth."
"Yes." Anping agreed.
"Be softer." Shen Jin demanded.
An Ping wrote it down, and went down to get things. An Ning touched the cup and found that the water was a little cold, so he poured out the water in the cup, and then poured it in with warm water.
Zhao Momo saw Yue Wen when she arrived at the door, and nodded to Yue Wen, Yue Wen followed Zhao Momo to the side, and told Zhao Momo everything Mama Li said, Zhao Momo sighed, "This matter... You go to guard the door, the general came back and told the general about the matter, Madam seems to have guessed something, and she is in a bad mood."
"Yes." Yue Wen agreed and left immediately.
Zhao Momo went into the kitchen and asked the cook to help her, and started making the sour noodles that Shen Jin wanted to eat.
Chu Xiuming came back at a fixed time every day, so it didn't take long for Yue Wen to see Chu Xiuming, and said the matter in a low voice, Chu Xiuming frowned and nodded without saying anything.
When Chu Xiuming came in, he saw Shen Jin half leaning on the cushion, sewing something with a piece of cloth in his hand. The moment he saw Chu Xiuming, Shen Jin didn't hold back, and looked at it with red eyes. Looking at him, with tears in his eyes, like an abandoned little animal, Chu Xiuming couldn't help feeling soft when he saw him, walked over and reached out to touch Shen Jin's head, "I'm going to change clothes." He just came back from outside , the cold all over is not good for leaning too close to Shen Jin.
Shen Jin put down the things in his hands, grabbed Chu Xiuming's hand, and shook it lightly. Chu Xiuming said, "Come with me?"
"Okay." Shen Jin became a little happier now, carefully got up and followed Chu Xiuming to the inner room, "Husband, Mother Li is here today."
An Ning and An Ping accompanied Shen Jin to the door of the inner room and stopped going in. After Shen Jin followed Chu Xiuming in, they carefully closed the door.
"It's by my mother-in-law's side. I think it's because my mother-in-law misses you." Chu Xiuming was serious outside, but he was not like this in front of Shen Jin. Chu Xiuming clearly distinguished subordinates from his wife, outsiders from insiders.
Shen Jin responded, and after Chu Xiuming changed his clothes, he stretched out his hands and looked at Chu Xiuming. Chu Xiuming hugged his little lady in his arms and carried her to the soft couch beside him. Shen Jin grabbed Chu Xiuming's hand and said , "I also think that my mother misses me, otherwise I wouldn't let Mama Li go this trip."
Chu Xiuming responded, "When the weather gets better, I'll accompany you back to visit your mother-in-law."
Shen Jin thought for a while and shook his head and said, "Mother has to take care of my younger brother now."
Chu Xiuming leaned against the soft cushion behind him and let Shen Jin sit in his arms. Now even Chu Xiuming couldn't wrap his arms around Shen Jin's waist completely. With his hands on her stomach, the temperature of her stomach was higher. In my heart, you are the most important."
"I think so too." Shen Jin smiled when he heard the words, "But when I think of my younger brother, he is a few months older than our children..."
Chu Xiuming found that Shen Jin stopped talking suddenly. He understood what Shen Jin was worried about, but now he was waiting for his little lady to express those worries in his heart. Only in this way could he comfort her better.
Shen Jin grabbed Chu Xiuming's hand, squeezed his fingers, and said with a trembling voice, "Husband, is Mrs. Li... gone?"
"En." Chu Xiuming didn't intend to hide anything.
Shen Jin bit her lower lip, lay sideways in Chu Xiuming's arms, and leaned her face against his chest, "Husband, I'm so scared..."
"I want to give birth to my husband, many, many children, like my husband, like me, like the two of us... I want to watch the children grow up with my husband, watch them marry wives and have children... I want to Grow old and gray together with your husband." Shen Jin began to cry in a low voice, she never cried like others in pain, but sobbed softly, weakly as if someone had discovered her, "Husband, you said I Will it…”
"No." Before Shen Jin could speak, Chu Xiuming interrupted her, "I won't let anything happen to you."
Shen Jin buried her head in Chu Xiuming's arms, her whole body trembling, "But, what if there is an emergency?"
Those who are pregnant, Yi Duosi, this is also the reason why Madam Zhao and the others don’t want Shen Jin to know about Li’s accident. The incident not only touched Shen Jin, but even Shen Qi felt uneasy when she found out about it, but she couldn't tell her husband about her uneasiness, because the crown prince of Yongle couldn't understand it. Qi thought too much.
But Chu Xiuming won't, because he knows Shen Jin well, and there will only be Shen Jin like this in his life. Many people think that marrying Chu Xiuming is Shen Jin's blessing, but in Chu Xiuming's heart, marrying Shen Jin Jin is also a kind of salvation for him. Shen Jin is his family, his wife, the mother of his children, and the woman who will be with him for the rest of his life.
Chu Xiuming bowed his head and kissed his wife, changed her position to make her sit more comfortably, stroked her back lightly and said, "There will be no accidents, don't you believe me?"
"But..." Shen Jin raised his head, looking at Chu Xiuming with dark eyes, tears kept falling, "But it's not you who gave birth."
Chu Xiuming bowed his head and kissed away the tears from the corners of Shen Jin's eyes, and said, "I will be with you, so don't be afraid."
Shen Jin's lips trembled slightly, she sniffed her nose, and said with a full face of accusation, "No way."
"En?" Chu Xiuming looked at Shen Jin with some doubts.
Shen Jin picked Chu Xiuming's palm with his hand and said, "Mother said, you can't come in when you give birth, it's unlucky..." Speaking of this, she became more and more accusatory, "Obviously the child belongs to the two of us, why should I You're going to be inside, but you can't go in."
Chu Xiuming was amused, grabbed Shen Jin's troublesome hand and said, "I will go in and stay with you."
There was joy in Shen Jin's eyes, she moved her finger, and stopped making trouble when she couldn't pull it out, "Then what should mother say?"
Chu Xiuming bowed his head and kissed Shen Jin's nose and said, "I'll tell my mother-in-law."
Shen Jin's face was obviously full of joy, but he said solemnly, "You can't let my mother talk about me."
"Why is mother-in-law willing?" Chu Xiuming's voice was extraordinarily gentle, although Concubine Chen often said that Shen Jin was naughty, let her be more sensible, and she said it more for herself.
Shen Jin suddenly said, "But mother said that you can't take a bath during confinement..." Shen Jin was full of hesitation, "Will you despise me?"
Seeing that Shen Jin thought about it, Chu Xiuming stopped mentioning those unhappy things, and said, "What do you think?"
"Yes." Shen Jin pulled out his hand, grabbed Chu Xiuming's hand and began to bite, it didn't hurt, but itched, "I feel so disgusted by myself..."
Chu Xiuming kissed Shen Jin's earlobe and said, "I'll accompany you."
"Aren't you going to take a bath with me?" Shen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming with disgust, and asked hesitantly, "Don't you want it?" For some reason, Shen Jin thought of the bearded face when he saw Chu Xiuming for the first time , holding his belly and started laughing again.
"But I heard that many things cannot be eaten during confinement." Thinking of this, Shen Jin forgot those fears.
Chu Xiuming kissed Shen Jin's finger and said, "I'll be with you, I'll eat whatever you eat."
Only then was Shen Jin satisfied, but she felt sorry for her husband and said, "But you can secretly eat behind my back."
"No." Chu Xiuming assured.
Seeing his little lady's smile, Chu Xiuming gently stroked her back. After she finished laughing, he took the water glass on the side and fed it to Shen Jin's lips. Shen Jin lowered his head and drank slowly without answering. Get up, "Actually, think about it, it's worth all the hard work to be able to see the child. What do you think our child will be called in the future?"
"What do you think, madam?" Chu Xiuming asked.
Shen Jin thought for a while and said, "I'll give you a nickname, can you give me a big name?"
"Okay." How could Chu Xiuming disagree? For this child, his wife has suffered so much. As long as the wife is happy about such a small matter as the name.
Shen Jin hugged her stomach with both hands, "I'm hungry."
"Then go out to eat." Chu Xiuming got up and looked at Shen Jin who was still on the soft couch. Shen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming expectantly. Take a step.
Zhao Mama made the sour noodle leaves that Shen Jin said, and gave Chu Xiuming chicken soup noodle leaves. Besides, there were other dishes that Shen Jin liked. After the meal, Chu Xiuming accompanied Shen Jin Jin walked for a while, then went back to the room to rest, but today Chu Xiuming did not wait for Shen Jin to fall asleep and leave, but stayed with her all the time, this time he did not talk about the art of war, but talked with Shen Jin about Chu The battles that the family has experienced, whether it is a small conflict or a battle involving tens of thousands of people, after returning, they will collect various materials from the soldiers, and then record them, as well as some annotations and the experience of the generals at that time. These are for literacy.
At this time, Chu Xiuming added some of his own opinions, and seeing that Shen Jin listened with gusto, he suddenly asked, "Why do you think Tianqi lost the battle against Xuyuan even though he had the upper hand? What would you do instead?"
The battle of Xuyuan was a war between Tianqi and the previous dynasty. Although the Chu family ancestors participated in the battle at that time, they were not well-known enough, so they were only one of the generals, not the Chu family elders who were in charge.
Shen Jin was stunned for a moment. Chu Xiuming had never asked her these things before. After thinking for a while, he said, "Me? Back off, and then get back together."
"Why?" Chu Xiuming asked.
Shen Jin said, "The food and grass can't keep up." As he spoke, he grabbed Chu Xiuming's hand and began to draw, "Look, the battle line...is so long that the soldiers can't get enough to eat, and they have to fight all the time. It's very tiring what."
After hearing this, Chu Xiuming suddenly asked, "What do you think is the most important thing in fighting a war?"
"Soldiers eat enough, and then save the lives of more soldiers. If there are few opponents, they will fight. If there are many..." Shen Jin hesitated for a moment, feeling that it seemed a bit bad to say this to Chu Xiuming.
"En?" Chu Xiuming asked.
Shen Jin whispered, "If there are many people on the other side, it's better to avoid some, or sneak attack?"
Not only was Chu Xiuming not angry, but he said, "My little lady is smart."
"Of course." Shen Jin forgot the shame just now and said, "I'm so smart."
