Childbearing system: The royal family is shocked to see their offspring wither away!

Now, the baby in Chen Zhining's belly is five months old.

After more than a month and a half, Kyoto has undergone tremendous changes.

It was said that Li was outside, insulting the women in other officials' houses without restraint, and had an argument with King Ying and Princess Cheng.

Not long ago, the emperor's grandson Dun'er, who was born under the name of Princess Cheng, was pushed away and fell to the ground. No one knew how he was injured.

"..."

Chen Zhining just felt that these things were noisy, and she just wanted to be a beautiful woman quietly and take good care of the baby in her belly.

After half a month or one month, when the baby is firmly seated and six months old, you can announce the birth to the world.

You don't have to work so hard.

As for Chen Zhining, she is five months pregnant with twins. Her belly is already showing, so she simply stays at home.

The people outside probably didn't notice Chen Zhining at all. They were all paying attention to Li.

Everyone's attention was focused on Li, and no one noticed Chen Zhining at all.

Therefore, they did not notice Chen Zhining, whose belly was visibly pregnant.

The people in the Ninth Prince's Mansion are not ordinary people, and they will not tell this matter casually.

However, the Second Prince’s wife sent Chen Zhining two invitations, but Chen Zhining rejected them both times.

He said that he didn't want to go out because Li was frightened and had been recuperating at home recently.

......

One day, Feicui came in from outside the palace in a hurry, and then told Chen Zhining excitedly: "Prince's Consort, that Li was finally taught a lesson!"

Chen Zhining raised his eyebrows, "Why did you get taught a lesson?"

The other maids immediately gathered around, and Chen Zhining handed them a handful of melon seeds.

"I heard that Li accidentally pushed the young grandson Dun'er to the ground! Princess Cheng kept holding on to this matter and went to the Queen to complain!"

"The Queen and His Majesty are also very angry. Although Li is pregnant, this matter is really too outrageous!"

"And Li's attitude was also quite irritating... She had no intention of admitting her fault at all, so the Emperor and the Empress were furious.

Let Li go back to the mansion and be confined to reflect on her mistakes until she is eight months pregnant.

"Eight months?"

"How old is Li's child now? I estimate that her child is more than seven months old now."

"So eight months... that's about ten days."

Chen Zhining was thoughtful.

So, on the surface, it seems like a punishment for Li.

But in fact it should also be a kind of protection.

By the time she is eight months old, even if she makes a big fuss, the other women in the court, including the princes' wives, will not dare to mess with her.

The emperor and empress still like the emperor's grandson after all.

Chen Zhining guessed that according to their intentions, it was very likely that Li would be killed after the little grandson was born.

Chen Zhining smiled and said, "Your Majesty and the Queen seem to be quite biased in what they are doing."

"That's exactly what I mean."

Jade said with a smile.

"But this is not the point. The point is that after hearing this, Princess Cheng went up and slapped Li hard."

"Mrs. Li was furious! Then she started to fight with Princess Cheng!"

"Now Princess Cheng is in solitary confinement with Li."

"...???"

"!!!"

Chen Zhining was shocked.

"My goodness, Princess Cheng is so tough."

"Of course, Princess Cheng, she is the daughter of a cabinet minister and also a princess."

"She is the principal wife. If she teaches a concubine a lesson, His Majesty and the Empress will not dare to say anything."

"And in this matter, your Majesty and the Queen were biased, so the Queen and your Majesty just reprimanded Princess Cheng with a stern look on their faces and did nothing else."

"I heard that Li is crying in the mansion now."

They were all very annoyed with Li because she had been against Chen Zhining before, and she had been so arrogant recently! Everyone was annoyed with her.

Chen Zhining nodded. After listening to the excitement, he saw Jiang Zhao rushing in from outside, sweating profusely.

Chen Zhining immediately went over to wipe Jiang Zhao's sweat off his face. "It's almost winter now, why are you so hot?"

Jiang Zhao frowned, then slowly said: "It's the Ministry of Revenue's business, it's really too troublesome."

"I have been investigating for a long time with my brother, the Crown Prince, but there has been no progress on the Ministry of Revenue."

"Today, King Ying and King Cheng teamed up again to provoke the Crown Prince, saying that he had no talent. Father got angry and stopped the Crown Prince from continuing to investigate the matter."

"I was afraid that the Crown Prince would be unhappy, so I hurried back and planned to go out with my Second Brother to treat the Crown Prince to a meal."

Chen Zhining nodded, helplessly: "Then you have been going around with them for nothing?"

Jiang Zhao smiled and shook his head, "Are you feeling sorry for me?"

Chen Zhining: “…No.”

"Haha, don't worry, I know what's going on."

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Zhining, his brows were deep and there was a gentle look in his eyes.

"Don't worry about me too much, I will take care of this matter."

After that, he would definitely fight for the title of a prince for his children and his wife.

Just wait and see.

Jiang Zhao said: "Since the Crown Prince and I are no longer busy with this matter, I am going to go out for dinner with the Crown Prince and my second brother."

Chen Zhining nodded and said, "Let's go eat."

"Take the money, remember."

The Ninth Prince nodded and went out with the silver and money.

......

outside the house.

The Ninth Prince, the Second Prince, and the Crown Prince, the three of them walked while Prince Duan complained.

"...I really didn't expect this, Crown Prince. We have been investigating the Ministry of Revenue for such a long time, but there is no clue at all!"

The Crown Prince looked at the Second Prince with disdain.

"If it were Ninth Brother who said that, it would be fine to investigate the Ministry of Revenue, but aren't you ashamed of saying this?!"

"It was my ninth brother and I who were investigating. What were you doing there?"

"I usually walk the cat and dog, and serve tea and water to me and my ninth brother."

"..."

The second prince twitched his lips and said awkwardly: "This......!"

"Then I don't know how to check anything. What can I do? I can only do this for you."

"Royal brother, please don't be partial. It's as if the ninth brother will investigate something properly... He is following you and helping you get the account book. That's all he does at most."

The second prince didn't think that the crown prince would ask his ninth brother to investigate anything.

Anyway, my ninth brother doesn’t know anything.

The prince and Jiang Zhao looked at each other and said nothing.

Jiang Zhao said with a smile: "Okay, brothers, let's go eat quickly."

"I've already had someone reserve a seat at Fanlou. We haven't gotten together for a while."

Soon we arrived at Fanlou.

As soon as they stepped into Fanlou, they heard a faint quarrel on the second floor.
