Chapter 139 Catch the adulterer
The person he met before was none other than an acquaintance. When King Zhao saw him, his face fell.
He tightened the reins in his hands and rode on the horse: "Fourth brother, why are you here?"
King Lie was in a very good mood at this time: "Third brother, isn't my younger brother's child about to be born? But when this woman heard the doctor say that there is a high possibility of more than one child, she insisted on going to the temple to pray for safety.
I couldn't persuade my brother, so I had to let her do what she wanted. After all, Xiaoxiao was pregnant with twins."
After that, King Lie specifically asked King Zhao: "By the way, does Third Brother have any concubines who have given birth to twins? If so, please tell Xiaoxiao about it and reassure her. I've said it's nothing serious, it's just that the little woman is scared."
King Zhao was very angry with him, as he indeed had never given birth to twins.
but……
"Fourth brother, have you forgotten that my four sons were all born one after another?"
He emphasized the word "four".
So what if you are pregnant with twins?
It's not just two children, not necessarily sons, he already has four sons.
As soon as these words were spoken, King Lie's defense was instantly broken.
He firmly believed that he was not as capable as his third brother in the court because he lost in terms of offspring.
After finally getting a chance to feel proud, the concubine found out she was pregnant with twins and wanted to show off, but failed.
What bad luck!
King Lie wanted to leave immediately, but when he glanced at the row of carriages behind King Zhao, he thought that he had finally found the opportunity and could not leave easily.
So King Lie suggested going together.
Soon, the team set off again.
King Lie jumped off the horse and got into the carriage.
He looked at the woman's big belly, his eyes full of joy, "Xiaoxiao, you are the most sensible, you must give birth to a son for me."
Zeng Cheng, also known as Xiaoxiao, held his waist with difficulty. His body was in great pain due to the torture he had suffered recently.
Hearing that the man was only thinking about his son, he felt a little dissatisfied and grabbed the man's wrist: "My Lord, you only care about the child, don't you ask me?"
King Lie showed impatience on his face. This woman no longer had the beauty she once had. She had a bloated figure, thick legs, and bun-like hands. She was not attractive at all!
Plus, she would ask him some inexplicable questions from time to time, so he really didn't want this woman.
Which woman in the mansion is not obedient in front of him?
This woman became delicate after getting pregnant.
Isn't it just a pregnancy?
If he didn't want to show off to his third brother, he wouldn't have brought such a stupid thing out.
But for the sake of the child in her belly, King Lie still endured the humiliation and said gently: "How is it possible? I like Xiaoxiao the most. She is very sensible and can give birth to children.
It's just that I don't have a son yet, and I'm worried. If Xiaoxiao gives me a son in the future, he will definitely be my best son.
When our son is born, we will protect Xiaoxiao together. Even the princess cannot surpass Xiaoxiao, okay?"
Zeng Cheng wanted to say that he was once a man and did not need their protection, but when he opened his mouth, he remembered that he had been transformed by the system and had become a weak woman.
I could only whisper softly: "My Lord, after I give birth to the baby in my belly, I will never give birth again."
"Okay, okay, all up to you," King Lie said tenderly.
He thought to himself, whether to have children in the future is not something you, a woman, can decide.
With a good belly that can give birth to twins, I hope she can give birth to more children for him in the future.
How could the fertility and blessing system hear that he didn’t want to have children anymore?
He quickly advised: "Host, giving birth will only be difficult for a short while, just bear with it and it will pass. Which woman in the world hasn't gone through this?
After giving birth and looking at the soft little baby, you will know how happy you are!
I told you before, isn't giving birth just like that? It's like a hen laying eggs, one by one, one by one, very quickly."
Zeng Cheng felt the pressure of his big belly and couldn't help but retort: "What do you mean quickly? Why don't you give birth yourself?"
The system said aggrievedly: "I want to have children too, but unfortunately I can't, otherwise I would have had a lot of them."
Besides, weren’t those words it just said what the host had said before?
It didn't say anything wrong.
This time, no one else stopped them and they soon arrived at Vientiane Temple.
Just after getting off the carriage, Ji Yunqing hadn't even stood firm when Cen Xi, who got off another carriage, ran over like a bird out of a cage.
"Sister Ji, we are finally here. It was so boring along the way. I should have ridden in the same carriage with you."
Her tone was soft and she acted sweetly and coquettishly. Wouldn't that man be confused?
Unfortunately, Ji Yunqing is a woman with a heart as strong as a rock.
She had gotten used to Cen Xi's occasional flattery during this period, and she was very hard-hearted: "Concubine Cen, I can't ride in the same carriage with you."
Cen Xi's eyes were filled with hurt, and she acted as if her ancestors' graves had been dug up, and she almost cried.
"Why? Sister Ji"
As she spoke, she searched inconspicuously for the location of King Zhao, hoping that King Zhao could see Ji Yunqing bullying others by abusing his power.
She has been bullied like this, the prince will definitely come to rescue her.
Ji Yunqing didn't know the little thoughts of the woman in front of her, but she was not naive enough to think that the person who hurt her would suddenly change his nature.
This guy must be holding back some big move!
She said seriously, "My carriage not only contains me, but also Ruirui, the nurse, two maids, and other miscellaneous things. There is no room for anything else."
"Or can Concubine Cen change Ruirui's diaper herself?"
The weak smile on Cen Xi's face could hardly be maintained.
Who would change something like diapers?
"Sister Ji is really good at joking"
Cen Xi passed it over and asked, "Sister Ji, can I burn incense with you?"
This is her ultimate goal.
When two people travel together, there are more things they can do along the way.
It was a rare opportunity to leave the house, so Cen Xi secretly vowed to keep Ji Yunqing outside forever.
Without this anomaly, her life can return to normal. Based on the memories of her previous life, she can make plans in advance, and the position of Queen Mother will surely belong to her in the future.
Normally, people would refuse someone’s request once, and then they would feel embarrassed to refuse a second time.
But Ji Yunqing is different.
She had the nerve to refuse.
As the saying goes, those who know how to say no enjoy the world first.
Although he didn't know why this guy was so enthusiastic, Ji Yunqing could choose to stay away from her.
"Concubine Cen, when I go in later, I will go and ask for a good marriage for Ruirui. I am afraid I cannot go with you."
Seeking marriage?
Cen Xi focused her gaze on the little kid who was being held by a maid and was sucking his fingers with relish?
You said you wanted to ask for a marriage partner for him?
Ji Yunqing looked at little Ruirui seriously and explained: "Even though Ruirui is only a few months old, children grow up very fast and will be one year old soon.
When she grows up, she will be two or three years old. In a blink of an eye, she will be seven or eight years old. Before I know it, she will be ten years old. People like us have to make plans early. We have to settle down when she is fourteen or fifteen years old. Haha, in a few years, people will call me grandmother. "
"Oh, now that I calculate it, time is really tight. Concubine Cen, I won't say any more to you. We can't delay our Ruirui's good marriage."
Seeing Ji Yunqing trying to leave, Cen Xi was unhappy and hurriedly stopped her: "Hey, Sister Ji, Ruirui is only so old, is your daughter-in-law not born yet?"
If the woman was a few years younger, the baby might not have been born.
This made Ji Yunqing even more nervous.
"Then I have to hurry up and ask the King of Hell to choose a daughter-in-law with a good temper and personality for my son."
Cen Xi: “…”
No more communication.
In the end, she failed to follow along.
When Ji Yunqing walked away, Cen Xi took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and winked at Concubine Qian.
If she can't do it, isn't there someone else?
Concubine Qian pinched the handkerchief in her hand and lowered her eyes.
She mustered up the courage to follow, but she didn't dare.
Seeing that Qian's concubine was slow to act, Cen Xi was very angry. This woman was not like this when she wanted benefits!
She looked at Concubine Gao again, but unexpectedly Concubine Gao was chatting and laughing with Concubine Jian, and didn't even glance over here.
Cen Xi's hands were shaking with anger!
Neither of these two works.
Just wait, after she finishes dealing with Ji Yunqing, she will deal with them as well.
Thinking of this, Cen Xi walked forward angrily.
"Concubine Cen"
The princess suddenly called her.
Cen Xi's heart trembled. She really didn't want to go to her cousin's place, but there was nothing she could do. Things didn't always go as she wished, so she could only endure it for the time being.
Ji Yunqing walked forward quickly, and only after he had walked a hundred meters away did he feel at ease before moving forward.
But she didn't walk too far. After all, everyone had to gather together later. After the princess and the abbot finished their greetings, they would have time to move freely.
When he thought of this, Ji Yunqing felt good.
Finally she can get some fresh air. The palace is very big and beautiful, but she also needs to go out for a walk occasionally!
Soon, the princess instructed everyone: Don't go too far, be careful, bring a few servants with you, and come back quickly when the time comes.
Several people agreed one after another.
The princess glanced at Ji Yunqing again, and said meaningfully: "Don't make any mistakes this time."
Ji Yunqing didn't understand what this meant, but he still nodded in agreement.
The last time I came to Wanxiang Temple to pray for a child and burn incense, someone claimed to have seen Ji Yunqing having an affair with a strange man. When we rushed over, we saw King Zhao and a strange man.
The princess said that she really, really, really didn't want to go through this again.
After going out, Ji Yunqing worshipped the Buddha very devoutly, which was considered as completing the task. Then he happily led his people along a road.
So when Cen Xi finally got rid of the princess and came out, Ji Yunqing and his group were nowhere to be seen.
Fortunately, she saw Concubine Lou, who was standing under a tree with her back to her, chatting with a maid beside her.
Cen Xi walked over as if possessed by a ghost.
Just then, I heard the maidservant say, "Master, I just saw Concubine Ji leave the main hall and walk towards the west path. She seemed to be in a hurry. I don't know what happened?"
Concubine Lou was a little surprised. "Oh? Really? She is unfamiliar with this place, where can she go?"
Cen Xi's eyes lit up and she smiled excitedly.
You’re right, this person is unfamiliar with the place, where can she go?
He must be going to meet his adulterer.
She really didn't expect that before she even started, Ji Yunqing would reveal his flaws.
If the prince could see Ji Yunqing's true face, he would definitely favor her again.
Maybe, that child was born out of wedlock.
"Xiang'er, let's follow and see"
Xiang'er was also Cenxi's maid. Since Fang'er passed away, Xiang'er became her most trusted maid.
Hearing this, Xiang'er's heart trembled.
You have to know that after her colleague Fang'er was arrested, she seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth and never showed up again. The order from her master was really too dangerous.
But ever since Fang'er passed away, the mansion seemed to have forgotten about this matter and no replacement maid was sent. Xiang'er could only grit her teeth and serve her master.
"Master, didn't the princess ask you to follow her? Why don't we talk to the princess first?"
Cen Xi waved her hands, very dissatisfied: "Why are you so procrastinating, maid? Besides, I don't have any salary this month!"
When it comes to the most important monthly salary, Xiang'er can only compromise.
Following the master forward, he stared at the group of people in front.
Ji Yunqing and his men quickly arrived at a large open space.
The last time she came here, she saw a few people flying kites here, which made her feel itchy.
This time, she must fly a kite!
The kite was made by a little maid in Guihua Courtyard. However, because it took up too much space, Ji Yunqing did not ask her to assemble it completely. Instead, he asked her to bring everything here and assemble it on the spot.
Soon, an eagle kite appeared in front of everyone.
Ji Yunqing excitedly took the kite and flew it with the maid.
There was no one else here today, which was a perfect opportunity for her to run wildly.
"It's up, it's up, great!"
Cen Xi hid in a haystack in the distance, and said excitedly: "Did you see it? There are words on this kite!"
Because of the distance, Xiang'er couldn't see clearly what was written on the kite. She thought that Concubine Ji was just here to fly a kite.
I couldn't help but ask, "Master, the words written on it should be ordinary poems, right? Or praying for blessings and peace or something like that?"
"impossible!"
Cen Xi did not accept this answer. She believed that Ji Yunqing was just trying to attract men.
Turning her eyes, Cen Xi felt that she could make the prince believe that she really did cheat on him even if she didn't.
Having made up his mind, Cen Xi began to give orders.
"Xiang'er, go put some medicine in the water they brought."
Xiang'er was in a dilemma: "Master, where can I get the medicine?" And she had to administer the medicine under the noses of so many people.
Is she crazy or is her master crazy?
Of course Cen Xi didn't have any medicine on her, and she gave Xiang'er a fierce look.
"It's really useless!"
"Where is the person I asked you to find?"
Xiang'er can answer this question.
"My Lord, I have asked my brother to contact several people. They are all hooligans, and they are said to act very quickly!"
"That's good"
Cen Xi was extremely satisfied. When doing something like this, the faster the better.
"But Master, those people should be waiting near the pavilion in the back mountain, not here."
"Then ask them to come over... Wait a minute! King Lie? Why is he here?"
