Lin'an Marquis' Mansion is located in the east of the capital. The east side is closest to the imperial palace. Anyone who lives here belongs to the prince's mansion. No one can even enter this street.
When Chu Yunli's carriage entered the east street entrance, the guard guarding the gate saw that it was her and bowed to let him go.
This is already the fifth year of her marriage to Zhou Yanqu. The story of their love has already spread throughout the capital. In contrast, the difficult story of her children has also spread throughout the capital. Many people secretly regret that what happened in this world
It's always difficult to achieve perfection. Many people think that Zhou Yanqu will definitely take a concubine, it's just a matter of time.
Because of her reputation, many people knew Chu Yunli. It was already dusk when her carriage entered the Marquis Mansion, and the housekeeper hurried over with an anxious look on her face and evasive eyes, "Why is Madam Shizi back?"
Chu Yunli was helped out of the carriage by Weiyue, "Why, I can't come back?"
The housekeeper broke into a cold sweat, "Madam, you are serious."
Chu Yunli went directly to his yard and asked, "Where is the Crown Prince?"
Seeing her acting like this, the housekeeper seemed even more anxious, "I don't know."
Chu Yunli saw that he kept reaching out to wipe his sweat, and turned around, heading towards the main courtyard.
Seeing this, the housekeeper hurriedly said, "Madam, you are tired from traveling and traveling. Please go back and rest first. The old lady is not in the courtyard at this time."
Chu Yunli ignored her and kept walking, "It's getting late and my mother-in-law should be back. I haven't said hello for so long, so why not wait?"
The housekeeper tried to persuade her a few more times, but Chu Yunli turned a deaf ear and went straight to the main courtyard. The housekeeper was extremely anxious, and it looked like he would have reached out to pull her if he wasn't concerned about her dignity.
The closer we got to the main courtyard where the Marquis lived, there were a lot of servants coming and going around, and they were moving in a hurry. When they saw Chu Yunli, they all stopped to say hello, with a look of fright on their faces.
When passing by Fengyuyuan, which is closest to the main courtyard, Chu Yunli stopped. Fengyuyuan is not a big place, but it has a complete set of water pavilions and pavilions. The scenery is extremely beautiful, and there is a pool of running water inside, which is the coolest in summer.
Located close to the main courtyard, it was originally supposed to be used by the owners of the main courtyard to enjoy the scenery and escape from the summer heat.
At this time, there were a lot of busy servants in the courtyard. You could also see that the kitchen in the corner of the courtyard was the busiest of servants, and from time to time they hurriedly carried hot water to the main room.
The housekeeper hurriedly caught up, "Madam, the old lady should be back soon, why don't you go and wait?"
Chu Yunli didn't even look at him, and walked directly into the courtyard, ignoring the many servants who looked frightened, and went to the main room.
In the main room, Mrs. Lin'an was pacing anxiously, and Zhou Yanqu had his hands behind his back, his face tensed. In the bedroom separated by a wall from the main room, a woman's screams of pain could be heard.
From a distance, he saw Zhou Yanqu's entourage turning around and sneaking into the main room as if they were frightened. Chu Yunli raised a mocking smile on his lips, but it disappeared in an instant.
When she arrived at the corridor of the main room, she saw Zhou Yanqu coming out in a few steps. When he saw her, he looked a little embarrassed and stepped forward to grab her hand, "Madam, are you back?"
Chu Yunli smiled broadly and said, "Husband, my mother-in-law said you were going to pick me up. It will be March soon. My husband and I have never been separated for such a long time. I thought you might be busy with official duties, so I came back first. I heard
My husband is in Fengyuyuan, so I will come over to see you first."
Then he asked doubtfully, "Who is here? He's screaming so miserably. It looks like he's seriously injured. Don't you want a doctor?"
The housekeeper lowered her head and said nothing. She obviously got off the carriage and went straight to the main courtyard, so why did she come here deliberately to look for someone.
Zhou Yanqu was silent and changed the subject, "Madam, I will take you back to rest first." After saying that, he pulled her to leave.
Of course Chu Yunli refused, and walked towards the house, "Listening to this sound, it seems to be very painful, just like what grandma said about giving birth to a child."
As soon as he entered the door, he saw the somewhat panicked Mrs. Lin'an Hou. Chu Yunli broke away from Zhou Yanqu's hand, stepped forward and said, "Greetings to my mother-in-law."
Mrs. Hou's panic only lasted for a moment. She quickly calmed down, pulled her up and asked softly, "Didn't I tell you to wait for Yanqu to pick her up? Why did you come back by yourself? You must be exhausted. Go back and rest quickly."
Chu Yunli ignored her words and looked into the inner room, "Is someone giving birth to a baby?" He asked doubtfully, "Is this my father-in-law's concubine? It's so unruly. Why did she come to Fengyu Yuan?
It turns out that Bian is still the main courtyard, mother-in-law, you can't indulge your concubines like this..."
The maid next to Mrs. Hou was a little anxious and hurriedly explained, "It's not Mr. Hou's concubine."
What Chu Yunli was waiting for was her explanation. If no one refuted what she said just now, the reputation of the woman here would not be bad in the future. Unless she really becomes the Marquis's concubine in the future, otherwise... it's okay for men to be romantic.
, but father and son cannot get entangled with a woman.
"Where did that woman come from? This is even more unruly. What kind of rules is it to go to other people's homes to give birth to children?" Chu Yunli looked surprised.
Originally, the Marquis of Lin'an and his brothers had separated a long time ago. Now he was the only one living in the Marquis's house, and he and Mrs. Marquis had only two brothers and sisters, Zhou Yanqu. Zhou Yanqu didn't have a concubine. If it weren't for the Marquis's concubine, there would be
Couldn't it be Zhou Yanqu's sister? That was the family of Yunying's unmarried girl.
She just had to force them to admit it.
Zhou Yanqu looked apologetic, "Zhen'er, the woman inside gave birth to... my child."
Chu Yunli didn't know what she felt in her heart. She felt a little uncomfortable and a little resentful. It was very complicated. The impact on her was very light, much lighter than the hatred that Zhou Mingxuan felt when she felt the same way. It seems that the good deeds are still not in vain.
He asked, "You don't even have a concubine, where will the child come from?"
Just at this moment, Wen Po's exclamation came from inside, and then a woman with blood on her hands ran out with panic on her face, and knelt down, "Your Majesty, Miss Lanshan is having difficulty giving birth, do you... keep her older or younger?"
"
Zhou Yanqu didn't bother to explain to Chu Yunli. Hearing this, his complexion changed drastically and he said angrily, "I want both of them. If Lan Shan can't let mother and son be safe, I want you to be buried with her!"
That’s it!
Chu Yunli had a look of surprise on her face, "It turns out that you and your cousin have had an affair for a long time."
"No!" Zhou Yanqu came to his senses, "Xiao'er, I didn't have a relationship with my cousin, but later you weren't... You have to understand me, the inheritance of the Hou Mansion cannot be cut off from me."
Hearing the last sentence, Chu Yunli became even more angry and asked, "Although I don't allow you to take concubines, I don't stop you. There are so many women who can bear children for you, but why a cousin? If you are happy
She, just marry her, what do you want from me?"
Fu Lanshan, the first-born child here, is already nineteen this year. She is still unmarried, so it is difficult for her.
"Zhen'er, I admit that I have selfish motives in this matter." Mrs. Hou said, "It is not easy for Lan Shan to survive alone in the world. I thought that after she gave birth to the Hou family's child, I would have someone to rely on in the future. Don't worry.
, after she gives birth to the baby, I will send her to her original yard in the suburbs and never come back."
Chu Yunli sneered, "Are you so sure that I can't give birth?" After saying that, he ignored the two of them and got up and went back to the yard.
Among the servants she married in the yard, there was only one wet nurse, Granny Li, who had watched her grow up. As for the others, the redeemed ones had already been redeemed, and the maids had also been married. Weiyue beside her was also the home of the Hou Mansion.
Give birth to a child.
She dismissed the maids in the room and said to Granny Li, "Mommy, I have a headache and can't get up. Can you help me find a doctor outside?"
Aunt Li's eyes were full of heartache. When Chu Yunli was sent away by Madam Hou, she stayed and looked at the yard. She had kept an extra eye on her, so she naturally knew what was going on in the Hou's mansion now. "Girl, don't be sad, for them
,not worth it."
Chu Yunli nodded, "If anyone from the palace comes, just bring them in."
After driving for several days, she was indeed a little tired. After the doctor came to check her pulse, she closed the door and fell asleep. As for the medicine prescribed by the doctor, she didn't drink it at all.
She closed the door just in case Zhou Yanqu came back in the middle of the night. She was too lazy to bother with him in the middle of the night, but she was overly worried. The baby had not been born yet at Fengyuyuan until the next morning, and Zhou Yanqu was right there.
Stayed with me all night.
The next morning, she got up and had just finished her breakfast. She deliberately put aside the cup of medicinal soup that she had been drinking every day since marrying into the Marquis's house. Aunt Li led the girl dressed as a palace maid and the imperial doctor in official uniform with a smile.
Came in.
Chu Yunli stood up quickly and said, "Miss Yunxiao."
Yun Xiao stepped forward, but Chu Yunli avoided it slightly and stretched out his hand to pull her up. Yun Xiao was not surprised by her actions and smiled broadly, "The Queen heard that you were back yesterday, so she wanted this slave to come and see you.
"It's just that it's getting late, so I'm afraid it will disturb your rest. Later I heard that you were sick and were calling for a doctor, so I asked Dr. Hu to come over."
Chu Yunli thanked Dr. Hu again. After greetings, she stretched out her hand to let Dr. Hu take her pulse. "I just feel weak all over. It must be the bitter summer. However, I originally wanted to ask you to help me find out why I have been married for so many years."
, but never got pregnant.”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room became stagnant. From the time Chu Yunli came back to asking the imperial doctor yesterday, he actually didn't do much, but the queen in the palace knew about it. It seemed that a woman in the Hou Mansion now gave birth, and the queen should also know about it.
.
Doctor Hu checked his pulse, and his eyebrows became more and more wrinkled.
Chu Yunli learned medical skills in her previous life, so she naturally knew that her original body was too cold and it would be difficult for her to have children.
After a while, Dr. Hu took back his hand and sighed, "Mrs. Shizi's body is too cold, and the heir may have a difficult time. Even if she is nursed back to health, it will not improve in a short time."
In the past, Yuan Shen and Zhou Yanqu had seen many doctors together, and even the queen in the palace had the imperial doctor come, and they all got the same answer. Grandma Li was used to hearing this, so she asked without any hope, "Doctor, do you know why?"
?My wife used to practice martial arts with the old general when she was preparing to leave the cabinet, and she has become physically strong. She has also taken a lot of medicine over the years..."
Chu Yunli glanced at the soup cup out of the corner of her eye and stretched out her hand. Although Grandma Li was talking, she was always paying attention to her movements and hurriedly handed it over.
Chu Yunli opened the soup cup, and the medicinal smell in the soup dissipated with the heat. Doctor Hu smelled it and frowned slightly, "What kind of soup is this?"
What kind of soup is it?
Chu Yunli's lowered eyes were full of coldness. This soup cup... was the main culprit for her failure to give birth to her own child.
Aunt Li had already taken the conversation, with a hint of joy in her tone, "This is the health-preserving soup recipe that Mrs. Hou asked from Master Yuanming. It was specially prepared for my wife."
Doctor Hu frowned, "Can you show it to me?"
Grandma Li thought of something, her face was frightened, and she hurriedly took the soup cup and handed it over, "My wife has been drinking it every day since she got married. She has rarely gotten sick in the past few years, but this...will it be harmful to the heirs?"
"
Doctor Hu smelled it carefully and then asked Aunt Li for the prescription. After reading it, she sighed, "Maybe it's a coincidence. This health-preserving soup prescription is very good and can indeed make people healthy. But if it is combined with medicinal materials to regulate the coldness of the body,
It's just that the cold is getting worse. Madam has been drinking it for several years and also drank a lot of medicine to regulate the cold. The heir... can only depend on fate."
