Because of his previous meritorious service on the battlefield, Kong Lin was made the governor of Jizhou, and his father's case was vindicated. Although Huan Ci was not familiar with him, he was happy for him from the bottom of his heart.
"Are you still used to the south?" she asked.
"Have you forgotten? Ziye lived in the south before." Li Jinxiu said with a smile.
Huan Ci quickly remembered that Kong Lin had been sent to the south. From this point of view, his experience was unusual.
"How long do you plan to live here?" she asked Li Jinxiu.
Li Jinxiu raised his head and glanced at Fu Shen, and said softly: "It depends on how long Mr. Fu stays here."
"You want to come with us?" Huan Ci's happiness was beyond words.
If Li Jinxiu was with him, people here would be more afraid to blatantly oppose Fu Shen.
Li Jinxiu looked at her and nodded, and then said to Fu Shen: "I have discussed it with Ziye, and both of us feel that your and His Majesty's decision is right. I have read the article you wrote, Brother Fu's Thoughts
Far above the two of me."
When she heard them discussing political affairs, Huan Ci stopped talking. After all, she didn't understand much about these matters and didn't want to interrupt.
As she expected, after Li Jinxiu mentioned this topic, Fu Shen was no longer as taciturn as before, and began to chat with him. They talked about military strength, farming, and scriptures. Although Huan Ci once had
I thought about it, but now I heard something deeper from their mouths.
She suddenly felt ashamed. In the past, her father asked her to study, but she didn't care. She only spent three days fishing and two days drying nets, which was half-skilled.
Sitting there was really boring, so she got off the bed and waved to Zhao Yan, taking her for a walk outside. However, the inn was not big and there was really nothing interesting to do. She walked around and then went back.
When she walked outside the door, she was about to push it open when she suddenly heard Li Jinxiu say: "Brother Fu, you have made a lot of enemies this time. This trip is really dangerous. You should not have brought her here."
After a long moment of silence in the room, the man's voice reached his ears: "Isn't there no danger for her to stay in Beijing?"
Li Jinxiu opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. More and more people are impeaching Fu Shen, and he has not cultivated his own power in the court. The only one he can rely on is Zong Zhenglu. In fact, under this situation, he
It would be better to take Huan Ci with him. If Huan Ci stays in the capital, if something happens in the future, they will be beyond their reach.
Fu Shen glanced at the man in front of him and murmured: "It's just that she's pregnant now, and I don't want her to suffer those hardships again because of me."
Li Jinxiu naturally didn't know what hardship he was talking about, but he could see Fu Shen's hesitation and uneasiness.
"How about this, I bring her to Jizhou and put her under the noses of me and Ziye. You are so close, you can come and see her at any time, and you don't have to be worried all the time. What do you think?"
"Okay!" Fu Shen replied after thinking for a moment.
Huan Ci's anger suddenly rose when he heard it outside the door, and he opened the door angrily: "I won't go."
Li Jinxiu was startled and jumped down from the couch. He turned back to look at Fu Shen, and saw the man staring at Huan Ci who had just entered the room with complicated eyes, without a trace of a smile on his lips.
"Why are you looking at me like this? I'm not going anywhere anyway, I want to go together." Huan Ci slowly walked to him.
Seeing that Fu Shen didn't say a word, she turned her attention to Li Jinxiu: "Thank you for your kindness, but I just want to stay with him."
"Aci." Fu Shen looked at her steadily, "I'm just going to Jizhou. It's not far from Qinzhou, so you can go there first. Besides, the conditions there are better than here, and it's good for the children."
"Stop talking about your children." Huan Ci said coldly.
Li Jinxiu originally thought about the two of them, but unexpectedly it caused the couple to quarrel, and they stood there awkwardly not knowing how to deal with themselves.
Huan Ci soon noticed that he was at a loss. He calmed down and smiled at him: "Stop standing, sit down quickly."
Li Jinxiu raised his eyebrows, cupped his hands and said, "It's getting late, so I'll go back today. If Brother Fu wants to find me, just go to the Governor's Mansion tomorrow."
"Okay." Fu Shen nodded and followed him to see him out.
As soon as the guest left, Huan Ci's face drooped again. Fu Shen had left her alone once, and now he wanted to leave her behind a second time. What's more, if Li Jinxiu said such things, how could she not worry about him? Even if she didn't.
She couldn't get involved in matters in the court, but she was also a princess of Zong Zhenglu's family, so those people would not make things difficult for her.
Not long after, Fu Shen sent Li Jinxiu away and entered the house very lightly. When Huan Ci heard the movement, he raised his eyelids and glanced at him lazily, snorted coldly and walked towards the back room.
Unexpectedly, Fu Shen did not chase him this time, but asked Sao Ye to move a lot of documents to the desk. He wanted to review the documents, so naturally others did not dare to make any movement, and those who were waiting for the pen and ink stood quietly.
Huan Ci stayed in the back room for a while, but his anger did not subside. Instead, the more he thought about it, the more depressed he became.
The only sound in the room was the sound of a man turning papers, and everyone else was too nervous to speak out. Zhao Jin was sitting on the stool next to him, sewing a purse, and occasionally raised his head to glare at her.
Huan Ci was bored, so he picked up a book and read it, turning the pages with a clatter. Fu Shen only glanced at her silently, and then quickly lowered his head to review the paperwork on the table.
Seeing that the man was ignoring her, Huan Ci held back his breath and couldn't let it out. Since he had nothing to do now, he might as well think of something to do.
After pondering for a while, she patted her head and shouted excitedly: "I haven't written to Ah Lian for a long time, so why not ask him about the situation in his house now?"
Zhao Jin then helped her walk to the Luohan Tower and waved to others to come over with pens and paper.
Huan Ci started writing in a hurry, just asking him about unimportant things, and also asked him by the way if he had any plans to marry Lan Fu.
After putting the letter into the envelope, she suddenly sighed and whispered: "I want to go back to Bingzhou."
The man finally raised his head and stared at her, his eyes full of inquiry.
Huan Ci was furious. She glanced at him and then looked away. She really wanted to go back to Bingzhou. It had been a long time since she had visited her father's grave. She only felt guilty in her heart. Her body was getting heavier day by day, and she had gradually
I'm a little annoyed, I just hope the child can come out soon.
The fetus in her belly seemed to feel something, and suddenly kicked her, causing her to grimace in pain.
Huan Ci suddenly felt extremely wronged, and tears fell instantly. But this time she bit her lip gently to prevent herself from making any sound.
Zhao Jin quickly noticed the abnormality, bent down and glanced at Huan Ci, whose eyes were red, and then straightened up and gave Fu Shen a look.
The man frowned slightly and waved his hand to signal everyone to go out.
Hearing the rustling sound, Huan Ci raised her head and looked up. At this time, Fu Shen had already reached her eyes.
She hummed softly, stood up and walked towards the back room. Unfortunately, her heavy body weighed her down, and Fu Shen stopped her easily.
"If you don't want to go, then don't go. Why cry?" the man said in a deep voice.
Huan Ci gritted his teeth and glared at him, looking fierce. Fu Shen stepped forward to pull her sleeves, but she threw him away impatiently: "If you don't want to talk, don't bother me."
Fu Shen's hands froze in place and his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was a little surprised. He once asked the imperial doctor and heard that pregnant women are often restless and angry because of their physical discomfort, not to mention that Huan Ci is now
Just in anger.
"It was my fault, don't get so angry." He raised his hand to wipe away the woman's tears.
Huan Ci turned her head to avoid his hand, but after hearing these words, most of her anger was gone. But she couldn't help but start to think about the two of them getting along during this time.
Since becoming prime minister, Fu Shen has been extremely busy, but at that time she could often sneak out to find him. Since becoming pregnant with the child, she has less and less time to herself, and she has hardly had a good night's sleep.
I often feel uncomfortable physically.
"When will this child come out?" She muttered dissatisfiedly, sounding like she was being coquettish.
Fu Shen heard that her anger had subsided, so he pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed, stretched out his hand to touch her belly, and comforted her, saying, "When the baby is born, the two of us will go shopping elsewhere."
"You know how to talk big words, how can you have time?" Huan Ci said. He used to be so busy, but now that Zong Zhenglu wants to change the law, he won't let him go, and he doesn't know how long he will be busy.
She took a deep breath and said what she had not dared to say for a long time: "You should leave yourself a way out. If the people in the court make a big fuss, they may push you out."
"I know, don't worry." Fu Shen murmured, looking into her eyes.
These words made Huan Ci a little confused. Although he said this, if something like that really happened to Jie Shi, he might not be able to do anything. And what help could she do?
Huan Ci reached out to hold Fu Shen's hand and leaned his head on his shoulder, just wanting to cherish this moment of silence. Fu Shen didn't speak anymore, and gently put his arm around her shoulders, his warm breath hitting her head.
Drowsiness gradually came over him, and Huan Ci fell asleep in the man's arms.
Noticing the woman's calm breathing, Fu Shen lowered his head and looked at her closed eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise.
Huan Ci slept soundly, and did not wake up until it was time for dinner. She was covered with a quilt, the room was already dark, and there were lamps and candles lit in front of Fu Shen's table.
As soon as she moved, the man looked over and said, "Are you hungry? I'll let them prepare food."
Huan Ci nodded solemnly. Now she eats a lot more, and she always gets hungry soon. Even if she just wakes up from a long sleep, her appetite is not affected.
Holding her waist and walking slowly to the table, she was about to pour a cup of tea when she suddenly saw Sao Ye walking towards her carrying two food boxes.
"So soon? Have you already ordered them?" she said softly.
Fu Shen didn't know why and looked up at her.
During this interval, Sao Ye entered the house with a majestic step. He placed the food box on the table, nodded to Huan Ci and then said: "Third Master, this is something sent by Young Master Li."
"Really?" Huan Ci frowned, fearing that there was some fraud involved.
"I went to the Governor's Mansion in person to get it. He sent a message for me to go there. My wife was resting at that time, so I went without replying. Mr. Li said that he had brought a cook with him and specially made something to replenish his health for his wife."
Huan Ci opened the food box, and there were indeed all kinds of tempting dishes inside. Her mouth watered when she saw it: "He is really thoughtful. I will thank him someday. Just take these things and heat them up."
Saoye blinked and asked Fu Shen with his eyes. After seeing Fu Shen nodding, he felt relieved.
After the man went out with the food box, Huan Ci frowned and looked at Fu Shen: "Why is he so cautious? Could they still be here -"
Seeing Fu Shen waving his hand towards her, she quickly stopped talking, but she felt even more uneasy in her heart.
Fu Shen sat calmly opposite her and said softly: "It's not that we don't trust him, we're just wary of everyone."
What's more, these dishes were not cooked by Li Jinxiu himself. Who can guarantee that the cook will be fine? He believes that he is as cautious as sweeping leaves and will definitely check them carefully before serving them.
