While waiting for Youyou to wake up, Yuan Qingling's slightly sad face came into view.
The panic stayed in his heart, but now it was biting his limbs and bones like a poisonous snake. He trembled and took Yuan Qingling's hand, "Then did Chu Mingcui really say that? Is the emperor really angry?
"
Yuan Qingling looked at the poor man in front of him and said: "Father, if it hadn't been for this matter, how could the emperor have asked me to go back to my parents' home if I was pregnant now? Please think of a way."
Jinghou lay upright on the imperial concubine chair, her mouth twitched a few times, she was dead now, that Chu Mingcui was really hateful, it would be better if she died on her own, and she would have to implicate his family.
The emperor will definitely be furious.
He glanced at Yuan Qingling's belly. Oh my god, it was only four months old. It was so big and round. She looked like a daughter. She couldn't live, she couldn't live.
Thinking of this, I was more than half depressed, thinking that I had been living like a coward for half my life, making little progress in my official career, and that the glory of the Hou Mansion was no longer the same as before, but was in decline.
Since he inherited the position of Marquis, he has sworn in front of his ancestors that he must restore Jinghou Mansion to its former glory.
He knows that his abilities are limited, so he concentrates on working hard. For this purpose, he is willing to sacrifice everything.
However, he didn't expect that when he racked his brains and thought he could go one step further, he would end up falling into a point of no return because of this.
He sat up slowly and stared blankly at Yuan Qingling for a while. He was about to cry but had no tears. He sighed repeatedly and walked out in despair.
Yuan Qingling looked at his back, as if his spine was suddenly pulled out of his body.
Naturally, he could not tell everyone about this matter, but he had always relied on the second madam, so he went to the second madam to discuss the matter.
After all, after Yuan Qingling comes back, everything in the backyard will have to be taken care of by the second lady.
After hearing this, the second wife was so frightened that she rolled her eyes. It took a long time for her to recover. After she recovered, her hands and feet were still cold and numb.
Finally, she said with difficulty: "In other words, if you want to survive, the princess must have a boy in her belly."
"Looking at her belly, she must be a girl." Jinghou is still very knowledgeable about these things. This is because his previous boss's daughter-in-law was pregnant. In order to make a high-profile statement, he went to ask the old man for advice.
Those with round bellies are mostly daughters, and those with pointed and thin bellies are mostly sons.
The second wife murmured: "This is too ridiculous. The lives of all the people in our Jingwai Mansion have to be tied to the gender of an unborn child.
Jinghou looked outside and lowered his voice and said: "Second aunt, I need you to think of something to do about this matter."
"What are you thinking of?" The second old lady's face turned pale, "It's already this month and it has been decided long ago. How can I change it?"
He waited quietly and said, "It's decided, but if it's the first child born in the Marquis' Mansion, wouldn't we be the first to know whether it's a boy or a girl? Why don't Second Aunt prepare with both hands?"
The second old lady was startled, "How to prepare with both hands?"
"Hey," Jinghou was thinking of a hint, but now that she didn't understand, he said directly, "Why don't you first find a pregnant woman outside, about a month old, and then secretly take her back to the house after giving birth? If Yuan Qing
Ling Sheng's daughter will be replaced immediately. If it's a son, wouldn't it be enough to give that person a sum of money to let him go?"
The second wife looked at him, "What if the man you are looking for also has a daughter? Is there any guarantee in this matter?"
"Then find a few. I don't believe that I can't give birth to a son." Jinghou said rudely.
By this time, he was hysterical.
The second wife looked at him blankly and sighed softly. It was not difficult to find a few pregnant women, but how easy was it to get their children?
