Seeing Chu Nanzhi holding a scroll in her hand, Tang Weiming belatedly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to her immediately. He smiled sarcastically and said, "I forgot, this is what Prince Xie asked the Governor to hand over."
Letter from the Queen."
Chu Nanzhi took the letter and opened it. Although the three words "Little Zhizhi" at the beginning were a bit harsh, it made her feel more and more friendly now.
"Seeing the words is like seeing the face. I am very happy to hear that you have got Lin'er and Fengnu again. I would like to congratulate you. It is not respectful to just take the Prince of the Dongsang Royal Family, Fushida Duo, as a congratulatory gift. I hope the years will be peaceful, I hope you will cherish it, and I hope you will be eternal."
The few words he said did not seem like his usual stubborn style, but instead moved Chu Nanzhi a little.
"Is he still in Langzhou?"
After folding the letter, Chu Nanzhi suddenly asked.
Tang Weiming shook his head: "Prince Xie has led his army to withdraw from the border of Langzhou. He asked the governor to bring a message, hoping that the imperial court can escort His Highness the Sixth Prince of Baiyu Kingdom and the envoy back to the court as soon as possible."
"Your Majesty and our ancestors will decide this matter themselves."
Chu Nanzhi replied calmly.
Now she is not worried that the pretty boy will continue to detain the Baiyu mission.
Although Lin Jinxiao is not a person who takes the initiative to show weakness to others, he will not let down other people's good intentions.
After all, one more ally is better than one more enemy.
"Is my wife, Ji, feeling better now?"
Thinking of Ji Huazhen who was also bedridden, Chu Nanzhi slowly packed up the letters and documents and asked worriedly.
"Mrs. Ji and the old lady were deeply in love. The old lady passed away suddenly. How could the old lady withstand this blow? There has been no water and rice in the past few days. The governor called the best doctor in the city to visit. This morning
The slave sent His Highness and the princesses there, and Mrs. Cui and Mr. Nie persuaded them hard, so that Mrs. Ji reluctantly drank half a bowl of white porridge."
Tang Weiming sighed weakly: "Mrs. Ji was very frightened when she learned that the Queen was prematurely born. She deliberately told the slave to ask the Queen to have a good life and take good care of herself. Don't worry too much about the old lady."
According to the customs of this era, outsiders usually visit the mother after the full moon, which lasts for seven days and eight days. Even those who are close to her must visit her after eight days.
Pregnant women and pregnant women are also not allowed to enter the mourning hall to express their condolences.
Although she was deeply concerned about Chang Lao and Ji Huazhen at this time, she had to respect these subtle customs.
But what Ji Huazhen said made her feel even more guilty and uneasy.
She has been lying in bed and thinking hard these past few days. Although she has not yet guessed who killed Chang Lao, she has vaguely realized that Chang Lao's murder is inseparable from the reform of Langzhou's official system.
If it was really caused by this incident, Chang Lao's death was undoubtedly caused by himself.
I originally wanted to make the two elders happy, but I didn't expect that it would actually harm him. This made me unable to meet Ji Huazhen again in the future.
Thinking of Mr. Nie, Chu Nanzhi had to suppress the sadness in his heart and reminded Tang Weiming: "Manager Tang, since the Dongsang people have retreated, the top priority now is still to thoroughly investigate Chang Lao's case, but I'm worried that there will still be
Someone is doing something bad to Mr. Nie, you have to ask the governor to send more people to guard Mr. Nie and Mr. Chang's house to make sure nothing goes wrong."
"Slave, I'll make arrangements now."
After Tang Weiming finished speaking, he left in a hurry.
After reading the documents for a while, Chu Nanzhi felt very tired and slowly lay down again.
I guess because of the premature birth, the clothes I had just changed and my forehead were already wet, and the smell of sweat all over my body was very uncomfortable.
Dragging her tired body tossing and turning on the bed, when she heard the movement inside, Abi Achun immediately walked in and asked cautiously: "Mother, what's wrong with you?"
"Why are you still at home?"
Chu Nanzhi looked at the two of them in surprise.
At this time, the two little girls should wait in front of the quadruplets.
Abi quickly replied: "The fourth princess said that Sister Sangqi is not with the queen, and she was afraid that the queen would be dissatisfied with the female envoy in the courtyard, so she specifically ordered the two slaves to stay with the queen to serve her."
"I see."
Chu Nanzhi felt a warm current surge in her heart.
This little one is always so considerate.
After Sang Qi left, she really didn't like these clumsy girls around her.
Although they all serve me attentively, there is always a lack of understanding.
If Sang Qi was around, I wouldn't have to say anything at this time, and I would have brought new clothes and wiping my forehead to replace myself.
Fortunately, Abi Achun was still smart. Looking at the opened door and the half-shuttered window, she hurried over to close the door and window, and came over to light the candle.
Chu Nanzhi was about to stop her, but Abi said: "Your Majesty, you can't get cold while giving birth now."
After saying that, she took clean clothes and wiped her forehead from the cabinet on the side and said: "The old lady asked the slaves to change their clothes for the queen every two hours."
The weather was extremely hot, and he was always sweating. Chu Nanzhi was waiting to change into clean clothes. Seeing how considerate the two girls were, he obeyed and changed into close-fitting clothes and wiped his forehead.
After he lay down again, Chu Wenbi's cursing voice suddenly came from outside: "I don't know what kind of evildoer did it, so that not even a cow can be found within a hundred miles. This
Aren’t you deliberately trying to starve my good grandson and granddaughter?”
Then there was the sound of a baby crying.
Listening to Chu Wenbi's complaints and the cries of the milk babies, Chu Nanzhi was dumbfounded.
A few months ago, I had people buy all the cows within a hundred miles of Langzhou City and send them to the Yizhou battlefield. Now that I have no milk, it is really difficult to feed two little ones.
In the early days of this dynasty, the founding king's favorite concubine was already in labor when the old queen mother passed away. The old queen mother was worried that the royal family's bloodline would wither, so she deliberately made a will before her death. The old system of stopping pregnancy in national mourning was followed, but the mother who had given birth was given a prescription.
Grace allowed the birth of the fetus.
After that, many female officials entered the court and fought for it several times. When Emperor Chonghua became emperor, this was even included in the law. As long as the fetus of a person who was pregnant before the national funeral was identified by the government, no liability would be held.
It's just that Langzhou, a thousand-year-old city, has a unique ancient charm. Even though the late emperor has ordered the period of national mourning to be shortened, the people still think it is unfilial to give birth during the period of mourning, and they are afraid of getting into unnecessary lawsuits, so they are now looking for a baby.
Being a mother is extremely difficult.
Chu Nanzhi did not expect that she would give birth prematurely, so she had not yet had time to prepare for the wet nurse. With a grimace on her face, Chu Wenbi's voice came again from outside the door: "Da Zhi, my father has sent someone
You went hundreds of miles away to buy cows. You are feeling better now. You can feed your grandson. How many mouthfuls of milk will your granddaughter take?"
There are always more solutions than difficulties. Chu Nanzhi nodded towards Abi and Achun: "You go and bring the two babies in first, and then let the old lady make some thick rice soup."
Waiting for Abi and Ah Chun to bring the little baby in, Chu Nanzhi finished feeding the older one, but when it came time to feed the younger one, there was no more milk.
Looking at the crying little one in her arms, she sighed sadly and shouted out the door: "Father, go and discuss with Mr. Tang to post some notices in the city and spend more money. I think you will have breasts."
Mom is willing to come to the house."
After all, these two children will be princes and princesses in the future. Are all the women in Langzhou City so indifferent to fame and wealth?
