The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

He sighed and blamed himself for being too busy with official duties in the past. He thought that Chen Qianmo was his son and that since he was studying in the Imperial Academy, he would not be bad at all. If he gave him some pointers before the imperial examination, he would definitely be able to pass.

But he forgot that the dragon gave birth to nine sons, but they were all different. Perhaps Chen Qianmo did not inherit his good side.

He didn't want to bring the topic to Chen Qianmo, otherwise it would be embarrassing to fail the provincial examination.

"Where is your son studying now? Brother Xu, are you coming to the capital to send your son to the Imperial College?"

The topic turned to Xu Bicheng. Although Xu Tongfu still wanted to find out how Chen Yanqing would deal with Chen Qianmo, when it came to Xu Bicheng's studies, it would be great if Chen Yanqing could help send him to the Imperial College.

"Yes, but my official position has not been confirmed yet, so the child's education cannot be implemented."

Nowadays, to study in the Imperial College, one had to rely on his father’s official position, or be recommended by a senior official.

Chen Yanqing thought that Xu Tongfu had saved Chen Qianmo once after all. Although he didn't want to help in his official position, he was willing to lend a hand for the child's education.

"Tomorrow I will write a letter to the Imperial College asking them to abstain from alcohol, and your son's studies should not be a problem."

When Xu Tongfu heard this, he felt mixed feelings of sadness and joy. Chen Yanqing was willing to help the boy with his studies, but Chen Yanqing completely ignored him when it came to his application for an official position.

He was too embarrassed to ask for help twice, so he could only turn around and let his son thank him.

On the other side of the screen, Meng Wen Yao felt that by now they had finished their meal and had said almost everything, so it was time for Liu Ruyan to come on stage and apologize before the show could end.

She tilted her head and told Xiaoju to let Liu Ruyan, who had been waiting, go on stage.

After a while, Nanny Zhuang brought Liu Ruyan over. I don’t know if it was because of Nanny Zhuang’s good teaching, but this time Liu Ruyan came over with her head lowered and her eyes looking very gentle.

Meng Wenyao looked at Xu Qinglian kindly and said soothingly, "Miss Xu was wronged in the previous incident. Aunt Liu in our house was spoiled by the young master and has never behaved well. Today, let her apologize to Miss Xu. If Miss Xu still has any resentment, you can just mention it."

After two days, Xu Qinglian's mentality returned to normal. Although her face still looked ugly, she tried her best to act generous.

"You are too polite, madam. I will not argue with a concubine."

"Miss Xu is generous, and it's also because of Madam Xu's good teaching."

Meng Wen Yao said something polite to Zhuang Lanhe, then signaled Liu Ruyan to come forward with her eyes.

Under the guidance of Madam Zhuang, Liu Ruyan came to Xu Qinglian, poured a glass of wine herself, knelt down, raised the glass to her head and said, "It was my fault that I didn't get to know her clearly and insulted Miss Xu with my words. I apologize to Miss Xu here. Miss Xu can punish me if she wants."

This attitude was so humble that Xu Qinglian, who was still somewhat dissatisfied, was speechless. She glared at Liu Ruyan, reached out to take the wine glass, and drank it, as if she was accepting the apology.

Madam Xu, who was watching all this carefully, said, "Madam Liu's mistake was unintentional. Our Qing'er will naturally not take it to heart. You two can be said to have known each other through fighting. Madam Liu, please get up quickly."

After Zhuang Lanhe finished speaking, Meng Wenyao immediately said, "It's because Madam has brought up her well, otherwise she wouldn't have such a tolerant daughter. Aunt Liu, come over and toast Madam Xu. If Madam Xu hadn't spoken well for you, you wouldn't be able to just have a glass of wine today."

"no, I'm fine!"

"It should be."

While Meng Wenyao and Zhuang Lanhe were exchanging pleasantries, Liu Ruyan had already quietly poured a glass of wine and was walking towards Zhuang Lanhe with it. It was not known whether it was because of the dark sky or the movement of people that someone tripped Liu Ruyan. Of course, it was also possible that Liu Ruyan did it on purpose, but she suddenly lost her balance and spilled the glass of wine directly on Zhuang Lanhe's face.

"Liu Ruyan, you are so outrageous!" Meng Wen Yao immediately stood up and accused Liu Ruyan.

Xiaoju and the others also reacted quickly and helped Zhuang Lanhe wipe it. I don't know who was busy with this, but they removed Zhuang Lanhe's veil casually.

While Zhuang Lanhe was still in a daze, she realized that her veil was gone. Coincidentally, at that moment Meng Wen Yao turned around and glanced at her.

When the two looked at each other, Meng Wen Yao suddenly felt that Zhuang Lanhe looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.

But it seems that there are no injuries on her face, so why does she wear a veil all day long?

No matter what, there must be something wrong here. She has a bad memory, and maybe Chen Yanqing knows it.

As soon as she thought of this, Chen Yanqing asked from the other side of the screen: "What's wrong?"

"fine!!"

Before Meng Wen Yao could figure out how to answer, Zhuang Lanhe answered first. She hurriedly tried to find a larger handkerchief to cover her face. Not only were her maids and old women anxious, but Aunt Zhuang was so anxious that she almost tore her clothes to cover Zhuang Lanhe's face.

"Lord, everything is fine here. I will help Madam to handle it."

The more they try to cover up something, the more problems there are.

In the blink of an eye, Meng Wenyao suddenly yelled, "Ah, my stomach hurts!"

When she shouted, Zhuang Lanhe paused and Chen Yanqing flew over.

"What's wrong? Did you have an upset stomach?"

Chen Yanqing hugged Meng Wenyao nervously. Meng Wenyao pretended to be in pain and turned to Zhuang Lanhe and said, "Madam Xu, I'm so rude. I have to go back to my room."

At this time, Chen Yanqing also turned around to take a look. Just this one look made his whole body stiff and half of his body numb.

Meng Wenyao, who was leaning in his arms, immediately felt something was wrong. She looked at Chen Yanqing, and then looked at Zhuang Lanhe's face from Chen Yanqing's face, and saw the same shock and a little fear.

She knew that today's plan was right, and the mystery seemed to be solved.

"Husband?" Meng Wen Yao called softly.

"I'll take you back to your room." Chen Yanqing retracted his gaze and said calmly.

"I don't seem to be in pain anymore. I'd better stay here and have dinner with Mrs. Xu."

Meng Wenyao tried to stay and watch the show, but Chen Yanqing didn't respond. He just picked her up and left.

On the way back, Meng Wen Yao tried to struggle to get down several times.

"Husband, it's not good for us to leave the guests alone like this, right?"

"Don't move!" Chen Yanqing said with a dark face.

Meng Wenyao thought that she had not done anything wrong today, so Chen Yanqing's dark face must be related to Madam Xu.

She tried to probe, "This Aunt Liu is really something. I told her time and again that today's banquet is very important and that she only needs to apologize and she doesn't need to kowtow. But she still refused to accept it and actually poured the wine directly on Madam Xu's face, causing Madam Xu to be unable to wear her veil."

After taking a look at Chen Yanqing's face, Meng Wenyao asked curiously, "My husband, you know, Madam Xu doesn't have any injuries on her face, why is she wearing a veil? She doesn't look ugly!"
