Dong Fang Qian hastily stepped forward to support her. "The heavy rain has just stopped. Imperial Mother, why have you come here?"

Empress Dowager Wei sat down on her throne and caressed her unruffled hair. She said lightly, "How could I not come over after such a big incident?"

Dongfang Ru didn't want to worry about her, so she casually replied, "He's just a spy. Your son can handle him."

"I'm not worried about him." Empress Dowager Wei's gaze shifted to Lu Yi, who was standing with her head bowed. "Wang Hu is one of yours, right?"

Lu Yi didn't dare to hide anything as she replied honestly, "Yes, it's exactly as the empress dowager said."

After a long breath, Empress Dowager Wei's voice rose again. "What happened at King Rui's side?"

"Jiang Fu is unwilling to admit it, so we're not clear for now, but this servant has already sent a message. There will be news by tomorrow at the latest."

Empress Dowager Wei nodded slightly and said, "King Rui now has an army of nearly two hundred thousand. The emperor must be on his guard and not let him have the chance to bring chaos to the Zhou Dynasty."

"Son understands." Dong Fang Qian let out a sigh. "Letting him lead the troops is the most wrong decision that our son has made in the past twenty years."

"Since things have come to this, there's no point in regretting it." After a pause, Empress Dowager Wei asked, "Ninth and Seventh Brother have always been close, have there been any movements recently?"

"Just like before, contact the ministers from all over the country. They want to force their son to join them in the south." Eastern Ru's reply made the empress dowager give a cold laugh. "He's really a loyal man, but he used the wrong place!" Pausing for a moment, she said in a cold voice, "If Seventh Brother was determined to do something reckless, he would definitely send someone to contact him, so that he could coordinate with others and be watched carefully. Moreover, based on the favor of the late emperor, he has the most likely chance of keeping the camp in his hands."

After Dong Ri agreed, she said, "I just received news that Zhao Pingqing is pregnant. Send some men to take care of him. Once King Rui is in rebellion, the child in her womb will become our bargaining chip like the Chen family."

"Your son will arrange it immediately." Dongfang Ru tacitly agreed. It was called "Care," and it was actually used for surveillance!

At this moment, in an exquisite embroidery in the backyard of the Pingyang Mansion, Shen Xijun vomited one mouthful after another into the washbasin held by Ah Zi.

Princess Pingyang's heart ached as she caressed Shen Xijun's back. She kept looking at the door, "This steward, why have you not returned after so long?"

"Princess, don't worry. They should be arriving soon." Before Chun Chun could finish speaking, the door was pushed open. The overseer, sweating profusely, led a middle-aged man in. "Esteemed wangfei, the doctor has arrived."

Princess Pingyang's face lit up as she hurriedly said, "Doctor, quickly check on Zong Ji. From last night to now, what have you eaten and what have you been drinking? What is wrong with you?"

"Wangfei, don't be anxious. Wait for this lowly one to check the pulse of Zong Ji first." After saying that, he sat down on a chair with Ah Zi and began to examine the sickly Shen Xi Jun's pulse. After a while, he stood up and cupped his hands towards Princess Pingyang with a relaxed expression, "Princess, don't worry. Zong Ji is not sick."

Princess Pingyang spoke with a worried tone, "You've already vomited so much. How can you not be sick?"

The doctor smiled, "Zong Ji is indeed not sick. The reason why she is vomiting is because she is pregnant."

"Really?" Princess Pingyang and Shen Xijun asked at the same time. They were surprised and happy. The one surprised was Princess Pingyang, and the one happy was Shen Xijun.

The pulse of Zong Ji is as fast and slippery as a jade plate filled with beads. No doubt about it." Shen Xijun was overjoyed by the doctor's affirmation. Her hands carefully covered her flat abdomen. "Child …" She had a child from the East …

Princess Pingyang's reaction was completely opposite to hers. Her face was very ugly, and when Shen Xijun wasn't paying attention, she called the doctor to the side and whispered something. The doctor said, "Princess, this …"

Princess Pingyang raised a hand to cut him off, "No need to say more. Just do as I say." As she spoke, she said to Chun Chun, who was standing to the side, "Follow the doctor."

After they had left, Princess Pingyang secretly took a deep breath and smiled as she returned to Shen Xijun's side. "I was also confused by Mother's behavior. When I saw you vomiting, I thought you had eaten something bad, but I didn't think to ask if your letter had arrived."

Shen Xijun's face was flushed red as she said, "Even daughter did not expect to have obtained the prince's flesh and blood so quickly. I wonder … He's a man and a woman. " Since the beginning, Shen Xijun had never left her lower abdomen with her hands. She had been so careful, as if she was protecting a rare treasure.

Ah Zi pursed her lips and laughed. "Looking at the time, it's only been a month or so, but Zong Ji is already impatient to know about the men and women."

"You talk too much." Shen Xijun lightly reprimanded and lowered her eyes as she whispered, "Men and women are good, but the most important thing is to be safe and sound."

"My son will definitely grow up safe and sound." As she spoke, Ah Zi laughed again. "Maybe Zong Ji has twins in her womb. Let's make it a good one."

"Girl, you talk the most." Even though she said that, Shen Xijun's eyes were filled with an unquenchable smile and desire, a pair of lives … That would be the best.

Princess Pingyang took Shen Xijun's hand and said with a smile, "The doctor said that your fetal aura is a little unstable, and you need to take care of your vomiting. Princess Pingyang took Shen Xijun's hand and smiled," The doctor said that your fetal aura is a little unstable, and that you need to take care of your fetus.

Shen Xijun snickered, "Your daughter isn't a child, so she can clearly distinguish the importance of the situation. Mother, rest assured. For the sake of the child in your womb, your daughter will definitely drink it no matter how bitter it is." This was the first time she called Princess Pingyang "mother" since she came back.

"That's good." Princess Pingyang rubbed her face with a complicated and painful look in her eyes. "Remember, no matter what mother does, it's for your own good!"

"Daughter knows." Shen Xijun was so immersed in joy that she didn't notice the change in Princess Pingyang.

After a few more words of advice, Princess Pingyang stood up and said, "Mother still has things to do. I'll come see you later. You must remember to drink some medicine."

After sending Princess Pingyang off, Ah Zi asked with concern, "Zong Ji, are you tired? Why don't I help you to bed for a while?"

Shen Xijun vomited for an entire day, but did not eat anything. Indeed, her body was weak. She nodded and said, "That's fine."

Ah Zi quickly took her hand, but she didn't see Alan do anything. She frowned and said, "Lan? Alan? "

After calling him several times, Alan seemed to wake up from a dream and asked, "Ah? What's wrong?"

Shen Xijun stared at her and said, "I should be the one asking you this question. What's going on? From the beginning, you seemed to have lost your mind."

Alain bit his lip and whispered, "Zong Ji, do you think that the princess' attitude is a bit strange?"

Shen Xi Jun said in surprise: "Strange? Where did that come from? "

"When the doctor said you were pregnant, this servant noticed that wangfei's face was very ugly, as if …" "It seems …" Alan hesitated for a moment: "I don't want you to have this child."
