Xie Yixiao sat and waited in the bright hall, looking at the sky outside getting brighter and brighter, and the sky was dyed with a faint clear light, and smiled.
It's probably going to be good weather today.
"Young Madam, the maid next to Princess An would like to see you." Ming Xin came from the door and whispered in Xie Yixiao's ear.
"The maid next to Princess An?" Xie Yixiao raised her eyebrows slightly, "Why did Princess An send her to me?"
She had no friendship with Princess An. On weekdays, she only nodded slightly and passed by her. She also met Princess An several times at parties, but she never spoke to her.
Ming Xin said: "I heard that things are not going well with Princess Zhelan, and I would like to ask the young lady for help."
Xie Yixiao asked Mingxin: "Why is it not going well?"
Ming Xin shook her head: "The person sent by Princess An didn't say anything. He said he wanted to see the young lady."
Xie Yixiao thought for a while and nodded: "Then let people come in."
"Yes." Ming Xin withdrew, and not long after, a girl wearing a peach shirt and a blue skirt came in with her hair combed.
The girl bowed her head and came to salute: "Qi'er has met Mrs. Ninth."
Xie Yi smiled and nodded, with a calm expression: "Get up."
"Yes." The maid named Qi'er stood up and said hurriedly, "Mrs. Ninth, I came here today because of the instructions of my princess. I asked Madam Ninth to go to the courtyard of the envoy of the West Vietnam Kingdom.
, I wonder if Madam Ninth can go with this slave?"
Xie Yixiao asked her: "What happened?"
Qi'er pursed her lips, as if hesitating and not knowing how to speak.
Ming Xin, who was standing next to her, saw that she was hesitant and secretive, so she said: "What are you doing? Since it is your princess who wants to ask my young lady for help, she naturally has something to say, and you don't have anything to say.
He said, my young lady would not dare to go on this trip with you."
The maidservant was mute, but she hesitated and did not dare to tell the truth: "This is not the place to talk. Young lady, why not go to Xiyue Garden, then everything will be known."
"Mrs. Ninth, my princess is such a kind-hearted person, she doesn't dare to do anything she shouldn't do."
Xie Yi smiled and said: "Princess An asked me to go over there and have a look. Naturally, I can't help but give face to the princess, and I'm also afraid that something will happen over there. But I need to go with my husband. Is it possible?"
Qi'er nodded vigorously: "Ninth Young Master and Ninth Lady will go there together, so there will be no problem."
"You'll be waiting later." Xie Yixiao ordered a guard to call Rong Ci, and then asked someone to bring a cup of tea to the maid, "Drink some tea and take a rest."
"Thank you, Madam Ninth." Qi'er took the tea and took a sip, feeling that her throat was not so dry anymore.
Rong Ci was drinking tea with the two princes Su Kang and Su Ye next door. He came over soon after receiving the news. The couple spoke to Prince Su Kang and then followed Qi'er to Xiyue Garden.
When the group arrived at Xiyue Garden, they learned from Princess An what had happened.
Princess Zhelan is pregnant.
Princess Zhelan is from Xiyue and is the direct princess of the King of Xiyue.
Xiyue is between Nanyue and Xiliang, so it is called the country of Xiyue. The territory of Xiyue is much larger than that of Nanyue, and it is not as good as the barren mountains and wild forests of South Vietnam, but it is better for Dongming, which has vast territory, and Xiliang, which is pretty good.
It's also very thoughtful.
In recent years, Xiyue has not dared to touch Dongming, but there has been constant turmoil with Xiliang, and they have become mortal enemies.
Princess Zhelan came to Dongming for the same purpose as Princess Zhaorou, she wanted to get married.
However, Princess Zhaorou fell in love with King Huainan, and wanted to join forces with King Huainan to overthrow the emperor and the prince, and then helped King Huainan ascend to the throne, and Xiliang was given some of Dongming's territory to expand its mountains and rivers.
Princess Zhelan's target is directly at the prince. She wants to enter the prince's backyard. When the prince ascends the throne in the future, she can use the power of Dongming to capture Xiliang. In the future, Xiyue will be able to dominate the west.
When Princess An came over today, Princess Zhelan suddenly fainted. Princess An ordered the accompanying physician to come to check, but found out that Princess Zhelan was one month pregnant.
"Pregnant?" Xie Yixiao was shocked, "Whose is that?"
Anyway, it's not the prince's. Although Princess Zhelan has always wanted to climb onto the prince's bed, the prince is not full of food. Princess Zhelan is said to be good-looking, but as the prince, what kind of woman does he want?
, who would think of putting an exotic princess in the backyard.
Princess An looked a little strange: "Princess Zhelan said that it belonged to Prince Ning..."
"Prince Ning?" Xie Yixiao's expression cracked a little, and she turned to look at Rong Ci.
Isn't this Prince Ning stupid?
Rong Ci also frowned slightly: "Since Princess Zhelan said this, she must have some involvement with Prince Ning."
However, it is not certain who this child belongs to. Maybe there is some conspiracy by the Xiyue Kingdom to make Princess Zhelan pregnant with the child and blame it on Prince Ning to confuse the royal bloodline.
Moreover, Prince Ning does not have an heir yet. If you think deeply, this child will be of great use.
Princess An said: "Inviting you here today is too abrupt. I'm just worried that when they go to Tai Chi Hall to celebrate their birthday, they will tell this matter. By then..."
It will be difficult to end it at that time, and His Majesty has a long life today. If this trouble comes out, won't it spoil the mood of His Majesty and everyone?
Fortunately, Princess Zhelan suddenly fainted and was found to be pregnant. Otherwise, she would have been in trouble if Dongming had to give her an explanation when she revealed such a thing in Tai Chi Hall.
Rong Ci said: "I ordered people to invite Prince Ning."
Xie Yi smiled and said: "Prince Ning should go to Tai Chi Hall to celebrate his birthday now."
Rong Ci said: "It doesn't matter, I'll have someone bring him out."
Princess An asked: "What about Princess Zhelan? Now she says she wants to celebrate her birthday. Should we stop her or let her go?"
Princess An was really undecided and very panicked. She and Prince An had always been honest people, but they couldn't handle such a thing.
"There is still some time, let's talk about it later." Rong Ci ordered someone to go to the palace to pass the news to the prince and Rong Xun, and then asked someone to bring Prince Ning out to ask these things clearly.
At this time, all the officials in the Tai Chi Hall congratulated His Majesty on a long life, and then began today's court meeting. Today there are good news everywhere, as if the world is really peaceful everywhere, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and live a prosperous life.
Although it is a bit exaggerated, His Majesty is really happy to hear these good news. He has managed the country for nearly thirty years, and now the world is at peace and the people live in peace. His hard work in this life has not been in vain.
After all, someone had reported Si Yunlang's case, and Marquis Jingyang said that today he had brought his eldest son to congratulate His Majesty on his birthday.
His Majesty was overjoyed and sent Si Yunlang to the Tai Chi Hall to meet the Holy Spirit.
