Chapter 349 Qin Rushuang entered the palace for the second time
In Qin Rushuang's courtyard.
Qingzhishuang hugged the baby and coaxed it for a while, finally coaxing the baby to behave.
Seeing Bai Ji walking in, Qin Rushuang raised her head and asked, "Is the person gone?"
Baiji nodded, "Miss, the prince has left."
Qin Rushuang nodded: "Continue to pay attention to the matters in the courtyard and find a quiet place, but not too far away from the palace."
Qin Rushuang's request was a bit harsh. It had to be close to the palace and quiet. The place was indeed difficult to find, but Bai Ji nodded and agreed.
After Baiji left, Qingzhi looked at the baby in her arms with some distress.
"The young lady had expected that the prince would definitely come to the house today, and even brought the child here...it scared the child."
Qin Rushuang looked at the already obedient child, stretched out her hand and patted his little butt gently, her tone was gentle, but her eyes were meaningful.
"I'm afraid he forgets that he has a son."
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head to look at the baby. The baby also raised his head to look at her and reached out to grab Qin Rushuang's finger, but Qin Rushuang gently moved his hand away.
"How is the new wet nurse? Does the child like to drink?"
Qingzhi nodded and said, "The new nanny is very well-behaved. I think she is kind-hearted. The baby is not very resistant to her. He has already drank milk once before."
Speaking of this, Qingzhi felt a little happy.
The day they returned to the palace, a wet nurse was already prepared.
The nanny said it was her second child, and she had been a nanny in another nobleman's house in the past. In short, what she said was very nice, but when she got to the house and saw it in person, she knew that this person was not an ordinary person.
She seemed to be a thoughtful person, and Qingzhi held the child in her arms to breastfeed her, but the child was somewhat resistant.
Qingzhi just thought it was because the child was not used to it. Unexpectedly, Qingzhi went out for something later and when he came back, he heard the nanny calling the baby her mother. She thought she was the kind of person who wanted to get rich by nursing the child.
.
Qingzhi immediately kicked the person out and found an honest banker woman from Du's village.
Even though the new wet nurse was a woman from a village, her first baby's milk was abundant and thick, and she was a responsible person. Apart from breastfeeding, she abided by the rules in other matters, so Qingzhi felt somewhat satisfied.
"Miss, let me take the child and sleep outside tonight."
Qin Rushuang nodded, "You can take him out now. I've had a headache these past few days. I guess I have to rush on the road. I might catch a cold. I'm afraid the child will be sick."
This is Qin Rushuang's old problem.
She is in good health and rarely has headaches or fever. However, every time before a cold, she always feels a slight pain in her temples and feels a little weak all over. Generally, it only takes a day or two for the cold to disappear.
to.
I didn't think anything of it before, but now that I have children, I have to pay more attention to it.
Qingzhi nodded, "Then I'll take the baby out right now. Miss, if you don't feel well, please rest. I've asked the doctor to give you some medicine. It might be better if you take it."
After saying that, he hugged the child and left.
Qin Rushuang sat on the chair and rubbed her temples vigorously a few times.
If she guessed correctly, Emperor Qi might ask her to enter the palace tomorrow. This time the cold wind really came at the wrong time...
Sure enough, later on, someone from the palace sent a message, still talking about the previous reconciliation.
Emperor Qi said he would not interfere, but Xie Xun had something to say.
He told Emperor Qi that he had not known about it before and was unwilling to agree. In addition, there were many things at the border that he had not explained clearly to Qin Rushuang. Therefore, Emperor Qi ordered Qin Rushuang to return to the court the next day.
Qin Rushuang accepted the order from her father-in-law, drank the medicine early and rested, thinking that her headache would be much relieved the next day.
Unexpectedly, her fatigue during the period at the border seemed to be discovered through this opening.
Early the next morning, Qin Rushuang woke up feeling lightheaded, her throat was burning, her lips were dry, and her voice was hoarse when she spoke.
Qingzhi was startled by her appearance: "Miss, if you feel uncomfortable, please don't go today..."
Qin Rushuang smiled, waved her hand, and asked Qingzhi to stay away from her, "You have to take care of the child, stay away from me, and don't get sick."
"I will definitely go to the morning court today. This is to go to the morning court. You should treat it as a spring outing. If you don't want to go, you won't go."
Qingzhi wanted to serve Qin Rushuang personally, but she was worried that the illness would pass on to her child. After hesitating for a while, she said to Qin Rushuang, "Miss, please lie down and don't move. I'll find a smart maid to help you dress."
Qin Rushuang nodded and agreed.
Afterwards, Qin Rushuang rode alone in a carriage driven by Bai Ji, preparing to go to the palace.
Xie Xun intended to wait for Qin Rushuang outside the mansion, but Qin Rushuang's carriage seemed to not see him and passed by him.
Ying Er said, "My lord, would you like to ask the princess to come with you?"
Xie Xun was silent for a while and then said, "No, let's go, just follow their carriage."
Xie Xun and Qin Rushuang entered the palace one after another.
Emperor Qi felt a headache when he saw the couple.
Originally, the matter between these two people was just a matter of feuding between the royal family, but because of Qin Rushuang's special status, she had to bring this matter to the court.
But he didn't want his family scandal to be publicized, so he suppressed the affairs of the two of them and dealt with the ministers' memorials as usual. It was not until the court meeting was almost completed that Emperor Qi dismissed all the ministers, leaving only a few.
Important ministers, and the fourth prince Xie Yang.
"Didn't I say it before? You two can resolve your matters behind closed doors and I won't interfere."
Xie Xun was the first to speak: "Father, how can the matter of reconciliation be so simple? Have you forgotten that there is an imperial grandson at home?"
When Emperor Qi heard this, he frowned and said, "What else is there to say about the emperor's grandson? Naturally, the royal heirs will stay with you to raise them."
"This is exactly what I want to say."
Xie Xun looked straight at Qin Rushuang. When he mentioned the child, Qin Rushuang still had that calm expression. Xie Xun made up his mind and finally expressed his request.
"If the princess wants to reconcile with me, she can, I agree. But from now on, the princess cannot see her children again."
As soon as Xie Xun said these words, Xie Yang on the side tried hard to straighten the corners of his mouth to prevent his joy from showing.
God, had he ever seen his unsmiling second brother push someone to this point?
If Xie Xun really does this, Qin Rushuang will probably hate him for the rest of her life!
There is no possibility that these two people will join forces again!
Then, Xie Yang couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Xie Xun, Xie Xun, I never thought you would be here today.
He actually went to such an extent for the sake of a woman!
It seems that Xie Xun really likes Qin Rushuang and wants to use her child to force her to stay in Prince Huai's Mansion.
But Xie Xun didn't pay any attention to the movements of others.
After Xie Xun finished speaking, he stared at Qin Rushuang motionless, for fear of missing any emotion in her eyes.
He waited to see Qin Rushuang's reaction.
However, Qin Rushuang nodded directly as if she was not surprised to hear this request.
"I have no opinion."
Qin Rushuang agreed to Xie Xun's request without any resistance, but Xie Xun did not feel happy at all, but became impatient.
"That's your child, how can you be so cruel? Think about it, if you really break up with me, you will never see him again in this life!"
"I know."
"I know you are still like this, how could you be so cruel in the first place?!"
Xie Xun's tone was even full of despair, "Do you hate me so much? Do you hate me so much that you will stay away from me even if you abandon this child?"
It was also the first time that Emperor Qi saw his son lose his composure for a woman. He coughed lightly and said, "Xun'er, don't speak so aggressively. It's a husband and wife relationship. Since Rushuang agreed, then don't..."
"My son doesn't want to reconcile at all!"
He almost shouted these words, and his voice was so painful that even Qi Emperor was surprised.
Emperor Qi looked at Qin Rushuang again.
If possible, he naturally hopes that the couple can live in harmony and stop bothering him with such messy things.
"Rushuang, why don't you... just forgive Xun'er. It was indeed Xun'er who did something wrong before, but the concubine in the General's Mansion was the main reason. Since she is dead, why are you so persistent?"
Qin Rushuang was silent for a while and then spoke lightly, but this time she did not answer Qi Emperor's words, but turned her gaze to Xie Xun.
"Of course I can't bear to leave the child, but please don't forget, Your Majesty, I did have many things to do when I was at the border..."
"It's because I feel sorry for my child, so I don't want my child to have a mother who is guilty of a serious crime in the future. The border issues have not been thoroughly investigated. Although I know that the innocent will be cleared, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"
When Qin Rushuang mentioned the border issues, Emperor Qi fell silent.
Borders and military power are his bottom line.
He had made up his mind this time to sound the alarm to the couple about the border issue, so he did not answer the call. He had made up his mind to investigate the border matter.
Xie Xun took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I understand."
Emperor Qi watched the couple playing riddles from the side. He had a headache, so he stroked his forehead and then said, "Then what are you two planning to do?"
Xie Xun bowed to Emperor Qi and said, "Father, I have troubled my father to worry about the matter of my husband's residence. However, my father also said before that it depends on my will. I do not agree with the matter of separation.
Please wait a moment, father. I will discuss this with Princess Huai after I return home."
Emperor Qi waved his hand: "Okay, okay! I'm old, and I won't participate in the love affairs of you young people. I still say what I said, and the final decision is all up to you! I'm tired. Let's go."
"
The two entered the palace with great fanfare, but in the end they still had no clear solution. When they left the palace, Qin Rushuang walked in front alone, and Xie Xun followed silently behind.
"If you are worried about border matters... leave it to me to deal with. If I let you get away with the border matters, you won't mention the matter of peace and separation again, right?"
Qin Rushuang paused and did not look back.
"The reconciliation between you and me is completely different from the border issue... Forget it, let's wait until the prince has thought about it."
After saying that, he walked straight forward.
Xie Xun stared at Qin Rushuang's back in confusion.
Is it just a border matter? Is her request really that simple...
