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

Chapter 785: Eldest Sister-in-law as Wife 54

Xie Chenyi was stunned and asked in confusion: "How can we not sleep in the same room? Life is so long, how can we spend the night in different rooms?"

Do you want a concubine and a child at the same time?

Meng Wenyao said with a smile: "My husband doesn't want a child, so if we have sex..."

"We got this child because of drinking Bao's medicine. When the baby is one month old, I will not be able to have another child even if I have sex with Bao." Xie Chenyi explained seriously.

After hearing this, Meng Wen Yao buried her head in Xie Chenyi's arms and laughed quietly. As long as they had sex, children would surely pop up like mushrooms after rain. Then she could only tell Xie Chenyi that this was a gift from the Bodhisattva.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for the baby to be one month old. Because the Fenyang Palace had been plagued by disasters in the past year, the full-month banquet was held in a grand manner in order to dispel the gloom.

Early in the morning, the princess and Xie Chenyi took the child out to meet the guests, while Meng Wenyao stayed in the room and had a private conversation with Madam Meng for a while.

"My child, marrying into the palace is really unfair to you. Fortunately, now you have finally gotten your reward. If you really had to be a widow to Xie Nan'an, how would you have lived your life?"

Talking about the previous events, Mrs. Meng was still frightened. Her daughter almost wasted her life in this palace.

Thinking that in her previous life, Meng Wen Yao really remained a widow for Xie Nanan's entire life, Meng Wen Yao felt sad.

"My mother has passed away, and now everything is getting better and better."

With Meng Wen Yao's comfort, Mrs. Meng gradually stopped crying. When she thought of Meng Wen Yao's current situation, she couldn't help but worry.

"Although you are now Xie Chenyi's official wife, you didn't have a wedding at the time, and the six rituals were performed using Xie Nanan's horoscope. Xie Chenyi won't deny it and marry another wife, right?"

Meng Wenyao shook her head in amusement and said hurriedly, "Mother filtered it. After Xie Nan'an and I got married, we were not included in the family tree. Since I remarried Xie Chenyi, although we didn't have a wedding, my name was included in the family tree the next day. It is set in stone that I am Xie Chenyi's original wife."

"Also, the prince of this mansion is in poor health. Earlier, my husband requested to be named the Crown Prince in the name of the prince, and my name was also written as the original wife in the petition. You can rest assured that my husband's character is flawless."

After hearing these words, Mrs. Meng just forced a smile when she heard a little maid break in.

"Young Madam, is Mrs. Bao missing?"

Seeing the panic of the little maid, Meng Wenyao knew that things must be troublesome. She took a deep breath and said calmly: "Don't worry, talk slowly."

"Today is the young master's full moon. Most of the servants in the mansion have been transferred by the princess to receive guests. There is only one maid left to look after Bao. Unfortunately, the maid happened to have something to do, so Bao took advantage of the opportunity to run away. We must have looked for her everywhere, but we haven't found her yet. We are worried..."

The maid didn't say the rest, but Meng Wen Yao already knew that it would be a disaster if Mrs. Bao showed up at the banquet.

But what could be the purpose of Bao's escape, other than to cause a scene at the banquet?

Meng Wenyao stood up immediately and without further delay, she quickly ordered: "Hua Mian, take all the maids in the yard and rush to the corner doors of the banquet hall immediately. Make sure that Bao is not allowed to get close."

"Mother, please go to the banquet and inform the princess first. I will go to the prince's yard to take a look."

Everyone quickly split up to look for Mrs. Bao. When Meng Wenyao arrived at the courtyard where the prince lived, she felt something was wrong because it was quiet. She grabbed a maid who was cleaning and asked, "Where are the people in the prince's courtyard?"

"Miss Cai Lian, who is beside the princess, said that the princess asked the prince to go to the front hall, and everyone carried the prince over."

Meng Wen Yao's heart skipped a beat. Ever since Prince Fenyang became paralyzed, under the care of the princess, Prince Fenyang had not been able to eat enough every day, and his medicines were taken very casually, and he was even slow in changing his clothes.

If the Prince of Fenyang were to go out now and be seen by guests, everyone would surely be shocked. Even the most dull-witted guests would know that the princess was deliberately treating him harshly.

Therefore, the princess would never let Prince Fenyang go out to meet guests. Even if he did, he would take good care of himself for a few days in advance and be presentable. Meng Wenyao had never heard that the princess had improved Prince Fenyang's treatment.

There is only one situation at the moment, that is, Bao Shi colluded with Cai Lian, the maidservant beside the princess, and took Prince Fenyang out secretly. Even though Prince Fenyang is paralyzed, he is still the master of the palace after all. If he is taken out by Bao Shi and reveals some information that is unfavorable to the princess and Xie Chenyi, it will be a disaster.

"Hurry, everyone, go find the prince. It's windy outside. If the prince's condition gets worse, all of you will be buried with him."

She couldn't directly say that the princess didn't let Prince Fenyang go out, so she could only instruct everyone from the perspective of taking care of Prince Fenyang.

On the way to the front hall, Cai Lian's hands and feet were shaking with nervousness. She whispered to Mrs. Bao beside her, "Concubine, you said that I only need you to help you take the prince out, why did you ask me to help take the prince to the front hall? If the princess knows about this, my life will be in danger."

Bao smiled coldly: "You have also seen how strict the guards are along the way. If you leave, how will those servants listen to me? Since the young lady has been sent here, I will borrow your face and send us all the way to the main hall."

"After all, if the princess sees you, she will kill you. If I tell you what you did in the past, the princess will kill your entire family. What's more important? You should decide for yourself."

As an undercover agent placed by Bao next to the princess, Cai Lian knows very well how much evidence Bao has on her family. Even though Bao has lost his power now, if he bites her before he dies, her whole family will not end well.

She walked forward with difficulty, fearing that she might bump into someone and be discovered in advance, and also afraid that if she made it to the front hall smoothly, she would be held accountable by the princess later.

She has been hesitant about whether to die herself or her entire family.

By chance, she walked to a water pavilion. She suddenly had an idea and walked around to the side of the sedan chair, pretending to be worried: "The people carrying the sedan chair, please be careful. The prince is not in good health. Don't let him get bumped. Ouch..."

With a scream, Cai Lian slipped and fell directly onto the sedan chair. The sedan chair tilted and several people were in a panic and failed to protect Prince Fenyang. In front of Bao's stunned eyes, Prince Fenyang fell directly into the water beside him.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and rescue the prince." Cai Lian said hurriedly.

Several people hurriedly jumped into the water to rescue King Fenyang. Fortunately, the water was shallow and King Fenyang's life was not in danger.

Bao lowered her head, approached Cailian and whispered threateningly, "Hold the sedan chair, and let's keep going."

"That's not good. Your clothes are all wet. Don't you want to go back and change?"

Meng Wen Yao, who was behind the bushes, appeared in front of everyone with a smile on her face.

Meng Wen Yao, who was desperately looking for someone, just happened to hear the sound of someone falling into the water. Upon hearing the sound, she came to this remote path, but she was still unable to find the person she had searched for.
