ex husband always trying to get me pregnant

Cheng Xi opened the scroll, glanced at it, and said, "The superfluous words are very lengthy, I'll take them apart so that your ears won't get hurt." After a quick glance, he summed up, "Prince Xia Yan was punished for a lot of crimes when he was the magistrate of Xuanwu County. First, contempt for the Holy Majesty and destroy the imperial jewel; second, leave the post without permission for two months; third, arrest people without reason for the sake of merit, causing chaos in the county; fourth, appointment rewards and punishments are not in compliance with the rules, and there is suspicion of bribery."

Xia Yan said with a cold face: "I know so clearly, it seems that there are spies in the county. What do you mean by arresting people for no reason for merit? Boss Xin?"

Cheng Xi nodded, "It should mean that Boss Xin didn't commit any crime at the time, so you arrested him directly."

"A joke." Xia Yan gritted her teeth, turned around and kicked the stone table fiercely, and roared, "He has harmed so many people before, even Ling Chi a hundred times is not enough! He actually said that I arrested people for no reason?!"

"Yan'er, calm down." Cheng Xi put one hand on his shoulder, "Words have always been exaggerated, let alone the second prince deliberately framed? As for Boss Xin, I have been paying attention to his case, because there is no actual criminal evidence, and Huzhou is his influence The scope of the case was indeed blocked at the beginning of the trial, so I informed my father, and my father personally sent a letter, and the state government office did not dare to delay any longer, and now the case is almost closed."

"Aren't there still officials colluding with him?"

"There are more important things right now, so I can't take care of them for now. After you and I finish here, there will be imperial envoys coming." Cheng Xi smiled, "It's all thanks to you."

Xia Yan's mood calmed down a bit, and he said to Cheng Xi seriously: "Thank you."

Cheng Xi said softly: "It's your first major case, and you put so much effort into it. Naturally, I won't let you fail."

Xia Yan's chest felt warm, and he tapped the scroll with his chin, and asked, "What else did you say?"

Cheng Xi bowed his head and said: "The next thing is to talk about me. Cheng Xi, the son of Prime Minister You and the Minister of the Ministry of War, accompanied by the crown prince, and a doctor of the Ministry of Rites, also left his post without authorization. He was unmarried with the fourth prince and pretended to be the fourth prince. Interfering in Xuanwu County administration, training Xuanwu soldiers, or having evil intentions..." Unroll the scroll backwards, "He will definitely occupy Xuanwu, support the four princes, and persecute the Holy One and His Highness the Crown Prince with evil methods. This king It is imperative to send troops to arrest Xia Yan and Cheng Xi immediately to maintain orthodoxy." Shaking his head helplessly, he said, "Since ancient times, the Qing emperor's side has been used over and over again, which is really nothing new."

"Because it's easy to use. The more shameless a person is, the more he likes to talk about himself in a high-sounding way." Xia Yan crossed his arms and rolled his eyes, then asked Cheng Xi, "He wants to attack the city, can we stop it?"

Cheng Xidao: "The king of the county can only mobilize [-] soldiers from the government who have not actually fought. Although he still has some support from the concubine Li's mother's family and the queen's mother's family behind him, those forces dare not move at the moment, so compared to attacking the city, A better option is to siege the city."

Xia Yan lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then murmured: "The siege seems to be more difficult to deal with."

"That's right. If we attack the city, we have more people and we have danger to defend, so we have a better chance of winning. Once the city is besieged, it will be them waiting for work."

"That……"

While talking, a yamen servant rushed into the courtyard in a hurry, and said as if a disaster was imminent: "My lord, it's not good! The people heard the news for some reason, dragged their families out of the city, and the city was in chaos!"

Xia Yan was shocked: "The opponent is coming, isn't it more dangerous to go out at this time?! Close the Sifang City Gate! I will go right away!"

Xia Yan quickly changed into his official uniform, and went to the street with Cheng Xi. The common people were either carrying their burdens and luggage, or carrying the old man with their children on their backs, and the dust was flying all over the street!Some even bumped into street vendors, the items were scattered, and people looted for a while, arguing with each other and even scuffling. It was extremely chaotic!

"Don't run, don't fight!" Xia Yan rushed up to stop him, "It's safe in the city, it's dangerous to go out of the city! Calm down! Don't run!"

Everyone was completely panicked, and no one listened to him.

"Be careful, Yan'er!" Cheng Xi hurriedly pulled him back to protect him, and said loudly, "It's useless, go directly to the city gate!"

The north city gate was closed, and there was a row of sharpened fences in front of the gate. Soldiers armed with knives and guns blocked it, but they still couldn't deter waves of people rushing out of the city.

Accompanied by Cheng Xi, Xia Yan quickly climbed up the city wall. When the people saw it, they fell silent for a moment, and then shouted angrily, "We want to leave the city! Let us out!"

"Everyone calm down! Listen to my words!"

With a straight posture and a firm expression, Xia Yan shouted firmly to the crowded and shoving crowd below.

"If the king of Linjiang County wants to rebel, he will attack Xuanwu County first, but please rest assured that he does not have enough troops to attack the city! Everyone go home, the county has enough food, and we will never let everyone go hungry! At this time, running around in a panic and running around is the most dangerous strategy!"

When the people heard it, they were quiet for a while, looking at each other and whispering, obviously shaken.

Xia Yanang was a little relaxed, and suddenly heard the voice of a young man in the city, and said coldly: "Why did the king of Linjiang take Xuanwu County first?"

Xia Yan was taken aback, and the people were also taken aback. Cheng Xili swept his eyes and saw a man with a lean figure and a drooping hat standing in the corner of the crowd. Then, the man disappeared with a "swoosh", only the erratic figure remained. It moved, but the voice continued to come from all directions clearly——

"The king of Linjiang County didn't rebel at all, but came here just for you. The fourth prince Xia Yan whose identity was confirmed three years ago is you, right?"

After the words fell, the crowd suddenly fell silent, and then there was an uproar. The people stared at the top of the city with dumbfounded eyes, and the man said again——

"It is well known that the fourth prince is ignorant and incompetent. Now that he has come to Xuanwu, he has harmed the people here."

"You..." Xia Yan was subconsciously at a loss.

"You knew that today would come, and you asked your adulterer to train soldiers, but you didn't tell everyone, just to prevent everyone from fleeing. You can't deal with the king of Linjiang County, right? Now that everyone is going to fight for you, no matter how bad it is, At least he was buried with him!"

"You talk nonsense!" Xia Yan yelled angrily as he stood on the city wall.

"The fact is so, how can I talk nonsense? No one is immortal in wars. How dare you swear that you will be fine if you stay at home? How much surplus food is there in the county? Do you dare to open the granary to show everyone? Once the food is in an emergency, naturally It must be offered to Your Royal Highness first; once there is a chance to escape, it will naturally be left to you first. Common people? What is that!"

There was a flash of a figure, white papers scattered all over the sky, and the people raised their hands to pick it up.

"Look at this proclamation! He is the one who wants to rebel! To be with him is to be a rebel! There is no place to bury him!"

The voice drifted far away, the message was delivered, and the people were completely out of control. Xia Yan didn't have time to think about anything else, but eagerly grabbed his head and said: "Control them! Don't let them go out of the city!"

A force came from his shoulder, he turned his head, and saw Cheng Xi solemnly said: "Go back to the county office, don't do anything, wait for me to come back." He jumped down from the top of the city and disappeared quickly.

County government office.

Xia Yan leaned tiredly on the wide wooden chair under the blue sky plaque, closed his eyes and pressed the center of his brows, feeling a dull pain in his abdomen.

He was in a daze all the way, and he didn't know how he got back.

After a long time, the county magistrate, chief secretary, head arrester, and head of the sixth house all came. He quickly sat upright, put one hand on his stomach, and said forcefully, "Have the common people been settled?"

The county magistrate clasped his fists and said: "My lord, don't worry, the group who yelled the loudest have been divided into guards, and a few particularly provocative ones have also been thrown into prison, and the rest who are vacillating are driven home. We will never let them come out at will again.”

Xia Yan nodded and said: "Thanks for your hard work." After thinking for a while, he said in a low voice: "I am doing it for their own good."

The county magistrate and the others looked at each other, all of them were hesitant to speak, but Xia Yan reacted and said, "What do you want to say?"

Everyone looked difficult.

Xia Yan had a premonition, took a breath, endured the pain in his chest, and said, "Let's talk, everyone is familiar with each other, so there is no need to avoid it."

After a while of silence, the headhunter with the most cheerful temperament said: "My lord, you, are you really... His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince?"

Xia Yan was stunned, and said: "I... yes, but when I came to Xuanwu to be the county magistrate, I cut off the name of the prince."

Everyone looked at each other, got up and lifted their clothes and knelt down, Xia Yan hurriedly leaned over and said: "Don't do this, get up quickly."

Everyone knelt down and hesitated for a moment, the county magistrate finally said: "Your Highness, we don't believe what the man at the city gate said just now, we never believe that you will rebel, and we never believe that you will deliberately To harm everyone, it's just..." He sighed heavily, "That person is right in saying that you have a grudge against the King of Linjiang County, if, if..."

The county magistrate really couldn't tell, the master followed up and said: "Your Highness, we are not ungrateful, but just considering the people in the county. Once the king of Linjiang County calls, then..."

The head of the military room said: "Your Highness, you know that Xuanwu County is too small and too poor, so it can't stand such a toss. In fact, in fact, there is no need to fight."

Everyone looked at each other, and after a while, Xia Yan opened his eyes in panic, and said with great reluctance: "You want... I go?"

"Uh..." Everyone was embarrassed.

Xia Yan bowed his head, his expression was gloomy, and he whispered to himself: "Indeed, if I leave, the king of Linjiang County will not embarrass Xuanwu County anymore. This seems...a good way." He got up in a daze, his figure shaking Shaking, "You, can you give me some time? I, I have to think about it. I still have to wait for Cheng Xi to come back. If I want to leave... let's, just go together." Pleadingly looking at everyone.

Naturally, everyone would not disagree, Xia Yan gave a difficult but grateful smile, staggered to the small courtyard in the back hall, and murmured: "Thank you, thank you."

Xuanwu County is the happiest place he has lived in all these years since he was a child, and it is also the place where he is willing to live forever.

But now, everyone wants to drive him away.

He doesn't blame everyone, because he is indeed wrong.Whoever he gets close to will cause trouble.

Cheng Xi is, so is Xuanwu County.

When will he not cause trouble to others?

Two hours later, Cheng Xi quickly stepped into the small courtyard, pushed open the door of the bedroom, and saw Xia Yan in official uniform, lying on the table with her arms folded and her head buried.

Xia Yan raised his head when he heard the sound, revealing a pair of red and swollen eyes that were obviously cried and dried several times.

"Yan'er!" Cheng Xi was shocked, and rushed up to ask, "What's wrong?!"

Xia Yan hugged Cheng Xi's waist, buried her head in his chest, all her dependence and grievances burst out, and tremblingly said: "Cheng Xi! I, I am so sad, my stomach, my stomach hurts too..."
