Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 226 Your father came to Beijing secretly
As expected, everyone knew overnight that Princess Ling was pregnant with twins.

The Second Prince Party has always done everything possible.

They spread the news that Princess Ling was pregnant with twins, and deliberately linked the natural disaster of heavy rains in the summer, which caused the farmland to be flooded and the crops to fail, to the time when she was pregnant with twins.

Even the incident of numerous deaths from malaria in a small town thousands of miles away was brought up again because it coincided with Murong Jiu's pregnancy.

Then he said that the Xiongnu sending troops was also an ominous sign.

The content they transmitted was not stated clearly, but what they wanted to express was that all disasters and man-made disasters were caused by the ominous incident of Murong Jiu having twins, and the country might even be destroyed because of her.

These words became more and more violent in the capital, and gradually spread to surrounding towns, and then continued to spread. Gradually, there were many unpleasant voices in the crowd.

Many people are ignorant, especially those who have never read books, and their ideas are even more pedantic and outdated.

It is unlucky to be pregnant with twins, which is the rumor from those pedantic village clans.

Even in some places, because a woman cannot give birth to a son, even if she gives birth to several daughters, she is considered childless among the seven, and will also be abandoned.

When some husbands die, the clan will make their wives die as husbands, and the woman's natal family will be proud of this and publicize it greatly.

In Dayan, there are many people who are looked down upon for having daughters, and some people have several daughters in a row and drown them in a urine bucket after birth. Those who favor sons over daughters simply think that sons can carry on the family line.

Murong Jiu grew up in the countryside in his early years, and later went out with his master to practice his medical skills. He saw too many poor women.

She is not afraid of temporary notoriety, nor is she afraid of other people's curses, because she will be rewarded for her good deeds and good deeds.

If his reputation was only bad for a while, he would be able to save many children in the future who would be drowned because they were considered unlucky to be pregnant with twins. Murong Jiu felt it was worth it.

Let her become the final victim of pedantic thinking.

Anyway, she won't go out for a while.

Despite the turbulent undercurrent outside, the years inside the palace were quiet.

After a few days of calm, I suddenly heard that there was a happy event in the harem. It was Concubine Qin, the princess of the Western Regions, who was pregnant.

When Murong Jiu heard about it, his expression was strange.

The emperor's body was harmed by the intoxicating fragrance of the former Hui Gui. His liver and kidneys were seriously injured. In addition, the emperor indulged in alcohol and sex for a long time, which had a great impact on him.

At that time, Murong Jiu spoke tactfully and only said that it would take a long time to cultivate. In fact, the emperor had lost the ability to have heirs.

If the emperor cultivates for ten years, his sword will still be immortal at that time, the situation can be said differently.

But based on her experience of checking the emperor's pulse many times, the emperor at this time was incapable of having heirs.

In other words, it may not be the emperor who made Concubine Qin pregnant.

Moreover, didn't the news coming from the palace say that Concubine Qin was already two months pregnant?
At that time, the emperor's body was weak.

"The emperor was overjoyed and wanted to give her a reward. He said on the spot that if Concubine Qin gave birth to a dragon son, he would make her a noble concubine."

The guard sent a message.

The emperor was quite happy and didn't feel anything was wrong at all. Maybe he felt that his sword was still young and his body had already recovered.

Wasn’t the previous concubine Yun also pregnant this spring?
The emperor must have underestimated the impact of Hui Guiren's incense on his body.

Besides, most men are arrogant, not to mention the emperor. He is the emperor and the human emperor with his own luck. He probably thinks that such poison is nothing to him, and God and his ancestors will bless him.

Even if the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital could guess something, they would never say it out loud. Those people are the ones who know how to protect themselves wisely.Murong Jiu didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, but she sent a letter to Jun Yuyan about what happened here.

Fortunately, the emperor didn't invite Murong Jiu into the palace to check Concubine Qin's pulse this time. He might have felt that her fetus was unstable, so she shouldn't bring bad luck to him.

Based on Murong Jiu's understanding of the emperor, he felt that this might be a big deal.

That’s fine, I’ll be happy and quiet.

But within two days, the guard came again to report: "Princess, King Yundian came to Beijing secretly, and he should be looking for Master Xiaowen."

Murong Jiu frowned and stood up: "King Yundian? He is so courageous. He went to the capital without being summoned. If he is discovered by someone and reported to the emperor, he will never come back alive."

The emperor was so suspicious. Knowing that King Yundian came to the capital, he might have suspected that the other party wanted to take advantage of the Xiongnu to send troops to rebel.

Even if not, the emperor would accuse the other party of such a crime, just in time to get rid of King Yundian.

"Keep an eye on King Yun Dian carefully, I'll go see Xiao Wen."

With that said, Murong Jiu walked quickly towards the outer courtyard, followed closely by Hongyi and Chuntao.

Despite her large pregnant belly, she looked a bit bulky, and appeared to be unable to walk in front of the fifth princess. In fact, she was in good shape and could walk as fast as flying.

She started exercising when she was two or three months pregnant, and her body's flexibility and physique have become better.

The fetus will not be overweight, because she usually controls her diet, and her belly is only because she is pregnant with twins.

The days are obviously shorter after the beginning of winter, but the sunshine is not bad today. Xiaowen is helping Master dry the medicinal materials. While drying, he tells the names and medicinal properties of the medicinal materials.

Xiao Wen is really talented and willing to endure hardships. He has a full schedule every day. He gets up very early in the morning to practice martial arts, studies pharmacology in the morning, attends a few classes, and has riding and shooting skills in the afternoon. In short, he can't do it in one class. fall.

"princess!"

As soon as he saw Murong Jiu, Xiao Wen immediately went to wash his hands, and then came over to make tea for her, as if he was filial.

He regards Murong Jiu as his second mother. In this world, apart from his own mother, the one who treats him best is the princess. Moreover, the princess is kind to him and is someone he should respect in his life. Well , as well as Grandpa Zhai and Wang Ye.

Murong Jiu took the tea with a smile and said, "Xiao Wen seems to have grown taller again."

Divine Doctor Zhai also took the tea from Xiaowen Xiaojing and said: "He used to be too thin and malnourished. Now that he has supplemented his nutrition and practiced martial arts to strengthen his body, his height will naturally skyrocket."

Speaking of which, Xiaowen is only six years old, and his birthday just passed a few days ago, but he is already taller than other children who are seven or eight years old.

It was also because Xiaowen was too thin when he first came here, as big as a three or four-year-old child, so now he is taller, which is why it is so obvious.

Murong Jiu remembered that she had met King Yundian from a distance in her previous life. He was nine feet tall and handsome. Xiaowen grew up quickly, which must be hereditary.

After taking a sip of tea, she noticed that Xiaowen made her honeysuckle tea to moisten her lungs and eliminate edema in her lower limbs, while she made Dahongpao tea for her master.

What a caring child.

She took a few sips of scented tea, dismissed the others, and got down to business:

"Xiaowen, your father came to Beijing secretly, do you want to meet him?"

Xiaowen was stunned for a moment, then his face turned cold and he shook his head and said, "I won't see him. If it weren't for him, my mother wouldn't have died."
