Overlord's Road to Ancient Emperors

Ms. An has been very anxious recently. The rumors about King Shun having a sweetheart in the capital had already subsided, but one day it was reported that the woman was pregnant again, and the prince didn't intend to marry her as his wife. He was still waiting for his wife. Go through the door and then enter the mansion.

This is quite respectful for a regular wife, but any big girl with yellow flowers will also collapse when she hears this kind of news. The husband has a sweetheart, and the sweetheart is still pregnant, so he is destined to give birth, that is to say, he is not married yet. In the past, I was already going to be a mother.

If the woman is obedient and obedient, it's fine if she doesn't fight or grab, otherwise, because she is King Shun's heart, their mother and father will not be spoiled?

In the capital, she still has her natal family as a backer, and if she married Nanyue far away, it would be really unbearable every day. Miss An regretted this for the first time. It would have been better if she had married An Jia Erlang Yes, the right family, talented and beautiful, except that Ning Erlang's status is worse, there is nothing wrong with it.

At this moment, Mrs. Ning personally boarded the gate of An's mansion, which shocked An's family up and down.

Mrs. An welcomed her into the flower hall, and saw that she was wearing a white dress with only one bead flower on her head, so she knew that she was still worried about her son's affairs, and she was very careful when she spoke, so as not to hurt her heart.

Mrs. Ning held Mrs. An's hand and cried for a long time. The two families were able to talk about marriage before, and because the two had a good relationship and had close contacts on weekdays, Mrs. An didn't think much about it, thinking that the other party was just visiting to relax.

Mrs. An patted her on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "My condolences, this kind of thing is really unacceptable. A white-haired person sends a black-haired person. It breaks people to think about it, but you are the matriarch of the family, and you have a big family to take care of. You can't break down."

Mrs. Ning covered her eyes with a veil. She cried a lot recently, and her tears had dried up. Her eyes were swollen like walnuts. She raised her head and waved to Miss An, who was standing beside her, "Yi Ran, come here."

Ms. An was full of remorse. Seeing Madam Ning's appearance, as if she could see her own future, she immediately burst into tears. She rushed to hug Madam Ning and said, "Auntie, don't be sad, take care of yourself."

Mrs. Ning froze, and then hugged her and said gently: "My dear child, I know you are the most gentle and considerate. I originally wanted you to marry me, but I will treat you as my own daughter. I never thought... Sigh, this is all It's fate, why do you think my three children are so miserable, one was robbed of his wife by King Shun, and the other was killed by King Shun, my family owed a debt to King Shun in the previous life, right?"

Mrs. An dared not say such rebellious words, and she really couldn't blame Shun Wang for saying it. Shun Wang might also be a victim of the gift of marriage. It was said outside that if the emperor hadn't messed up the mandarin ducks, Shun Wang would have married With the sweetheart, the family and the United States, what's the matter with them settling down?

She is also worried recently. After her daughter is married, she is an outsider. How can she compete with the daughter of the Kou family who has the whole of South Vietnam as her backer?At that time, I still don't know how to be bullied.

Thinking of this, Mrs. An also said casually: "We are Yiran who are unlucky. If we knew that there would be a marriage, we should have decided on the marriage of the two children earlier."

This is what Mrs. Ning wanted. She took off the bracelet on her wrist and put it on Miss An. She held her hand and said, "There is something I always wanted to ask, but it was delayed because of Sanlang's incident." Well, today I will have the cheek to ask, is Yiran still willing to marry into my family?"

"What?" Mrs. An's mother and daughter stood up in surprise, Mrs. An was more stable, and hurriedly waved her hands, "Sister, you can't talk nonsense, this marriage was ordered by the emperor, how dare we violate it? That is disobedience to the imperial decree! "

Miss An's eyes were shining brightly, a blush of just the right amount appeared on her face, then she turned her face away and said desolately: "Auntie loves me, but holy fate is hard to do, Yiran is not so blessed."

"Good boy, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. Erlang will never forget you. As a mother, I can't stand him being unhappy every day. This marriage came out of nowhere. You are not the only one in the capital who is suitable, but no one has refuted it. , Now that King Shun himself wants to retire, the Emperor must also consider King Shun's wishes."

The mother and daughter of the An family were shocked again, "What? King Shun wants to divorce?"

A sneer flashed in Mrs. Ning's eyes, and she said in a solemn tone: "Yes, didn't he write a memorial to the emperor before, and he mentioned this matter, and my lord just happened to see it, and because of this, I think there is still room for discussion on this marriage. leeway."

Ms. An originally thought that even if she could not get King Shun's favor, she could at least get his respect. She didn't expect that he would retire the engagement. For the sake of that Kou family girl, she must have deliberately spread the news of her pregnancy at this stall. of.

She hid her face and fled, feeling that she had become Quan Dayan's joke. Even if she married, King Shun wanted to dote on his concubine and destroy his wife.

Seeing her daughter running away, Mrs. An was very anxious, but she couldn't leave Mrs. Ning behind. Fortunately, the latter didn't say much, "Go and see Yiran, this child must be frightened, hey, They are all poor children."

Mrs. An sent people out, turned around to look for her daughter, her face was livid with anger.

Outside the door, the lady-in-law helped Madam Ning into the carriage, sat beside her, and asked in a low voice, "Madam, do you really want to marry Miss An for Erlang? Even if we divorce, her reputation..."

There was a sneer at the corner of Madam Ning's mouth, "It's a beautiful thought, it's just a worn-out shoe that people despise, but it's barely enough for my Saburo."

"But how could the An family agree? If there is a disturbance, we will ignore it."

Mrs. Ning twisted her veil absently, and said, "Who can prove that I said Erlang when I proposed marriage? Just relying on the mouths of the An family? I just let Erlang greet Sanlang on behalf of Sanlang. There are too many such things. It's them." If you made a mistake yourself, who can you blame?"

The mother-in-law kept her mouth shut, he could already see the scene where the two families turned against each other, but this is the master's business and has nothing to do with them, why offend the wife for this?

"However, it's a bit troublesome for the emperor to withdraw the imperial decree, so King Shun retreated despite the difficulties, what a coward!" Mrs. Ning said Li Xu with hatred.

"Go to Liji grocery store." Mrs. Ning has been worried about this grocery store since what happened last time. She didn't think much about it before, but now she feels more and more that this store has something to do with King Shun. Is your surname Li?Moreover, in the last letter sent home by San Lang, he mentioned that there was a Li Ji grocery store in South Vietnam, saying that it was the property of King Shun, so there was no such a coincidence.

When she came to the door again, Lei Luo didn't see any problem with her attitude, he still treated her as a guest of honor and introduced a lot of good things to her.

Mrs. Ning didn't come to buy anything. She turned a set of glass tea sets and asked, "I don't know who your owner is. It must be someone who can open such a big shop in this location and get these rare treasures." A man of patience."

Lei Luo smiled, "The owner wants to keep a low profile and is unwilling to reveal his identity, but he is indeed a capable person, but these are not rare treasures, they are small things that can be used at home."

Mrs. Ning has never seen such a crystal clear glass, and the whole set with the glass teapot is particularly pleasing to the eye. If scented tea is brewed in it, it must be very beautiful.

"Last time I offended you a lot, and I hope shopkeeper Lei doesn't mind. Speaking of which, Lei's surname is not common. I grew up in Nanyue, and Lei is the common surname of our fellow villagers. I wonder if shopkeeper Lei knows Nanyue Lei's family? "

"Nanyue Lei's family?" Lei Luo didn't know how much she had found. His identity was actually easy to find out, but there were very few people who would look into that area. "Is it Mr. Lei Minglei's Lei's family? I have been to South Vietnam Purchase, I have heard of this person."

"Oh, I just heard about it. I thought we were fellow villagers. I haven't been back to South Vietnam for many years. I miss it very much. I wish I could see my fellow villagers."

Lei Luo was not surprised at all, and gave her some advice, "Mrs. Ning's wish will come true soon. The villain heard that there is a construction team coming from South Vietnam, and they are going to settle in the capital. It's disdainful."

Of course Mrs. Ning didn't want to meet any construction team, but as long as she could find out a little about King Shun, she didn't mind letting someone contact her, it was better than having no news at all.

The natal brothers are unreliable, and even persuaded her to let go of her grievances, ah, she will definitely make them regret it.

Li Xu touched Kou Xiao's belly, and said softly, "How many months should our child be now? Three months or four months?"

Kou Xiao patted his hand away, with a troubled face, "It's fine to make this kind of joke once or twice, you come every day, what's your heart?"

Li Xu laughed out loud, he just likes to see Kou Xiao deflated, "Isn't this just to keep track of the days, otherwise if someone asks me later, I don't even know how many months my sweetheart is pregnant, so I'll be ruined right away ?”

"Instead of thinking about this, you might as well think about where this child comes from. You can't have an abortion, right?"

Li Xu thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Depending on the situation, it's not impossible to have a miscarriage. If you can't find a suitable child at that time, it will be difficult to give birth. If you want to protect the older one, you can also prove my infatuation."

Kou Xiao jumped up and glared at him, "This general has to go to the barracks, the lord is here to think about it slowly." After speaking, he ran away.

There's no way, he can't bear to have an unmarried young man talk about the topic of pregnancy, miscarriage and dystocia, and not everyone has Li Xu's face.

"Hey, it's getting dark, are you going to the barracks now and come back at night?"

Kou Xiao's voice came from a distance, "Come back, definitely come back!"

Li Xu shrugged, walked back to the yard with his hands behind his back, and saw that the little princess's yard next door was still lit, and his good daughter was sitting on the swing in a daze.

He walked over and gently pushed the little princess, and asked, "Do you have something on your mind?"

The little princess looked back at him, but she didn't smile. She nodded and said, "I have something on my mind. I heard that I want to have more than one younger brother or younger sister, but I didn't know about it. I heard it from my little friend. Hey .”

"Eh..." Li Xu was able to speak freely in front of Kou Xiao, and dared to say anything, but he didn't know how to explain it in front of his daughter.

This matter is absurd, Li Xu definitely didn't want the little princess to know, but he forgot, Nanyue is so big, how can he hide the news about him?

"That's it... Does Shu Ning like her brother or sister?"

The little princess thought about it seriously, and replied: "I want a younger brother, but not a younger sister. It is enough for my father and king to have me as a daughter."

Li Xu shook his head and laughed, it was really a child's idea. In the 21st century, parents have to worry about things before having a second child. He finally realized that children will also compete for favor. There is no doubt about this, but how to solve this problem? ?

"Don't worry, you will always be my father's big baby. My sister is definitely not there. As for my younger brother...it's hard to say. After all, my father hasn't found a suitable candidate. Maybe there is none."

The little princess didn't understand, but it didn't stop her from being happy. "My father said that he likes Uncle Kou and won't marry another woman. Then who will give birth to my younger brother? Uncle Kou probably won't have children, right?" the child asked. I am not sure again.

The common sense is that men will not have children, but who knows if there are any exceptions?The little princess thinks that she is young and has little knowledge, maybe Uncle Kou will be an exception?

Imagining Uncle Kou's big belly, the little princess was so frightened that she almost fell off the swing, and cried, "Father, please don't let Uncle Kou have a baby, it's too scary."

Li Xu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "What are you thinking? Ahaha... how can a man have children? Don't think about it."

The little princess felt relieved, "That's good, but Uncle Kou can't give birth, father, do you want to take a concubine?" The little princess looked incomprehensible, and agreed not to take a concubine?

"No, I can't explain this matter clearly, I will tell you later." Li Xu was overwhelmed by the question. He didn't know that there are many people out there who are even bigger than him, and they study the love history of King Shun every day. , arranged various versions of the story.

There is also nightlife in Minzhou City now, teahouses and restaurants all have night shows, storytellers tell various stories passionately, and the audience below shouts from time to time, and then whisper to each other.

"Did you find it? Where did King Shun hide him? That's all the property of Prince Shun's mansion. I haven't heard that there is another courtyard."

"Shh, guess what clue I found? Saying it out will scare you to death!"

The tea customer at the next table moved his chair and came over to join the table, urging: "Tell me quickly, what did you find?"

"I found out that Kou Sanniang is not alive at all, she is dead. You know about her ex-husband's family, right? The cousin of my uncle's brother-in-law is a long-term worker in that household, and the whole house says their wife has died of illness. "

"Hey, this is all news from 800 years ago. Hasn't it been proven to be a lie? The family spoiled their concubines and killed their wives. Of course they wanted to cover up the truth. Many people saw Kou Sanniang being taken back with their own eyes."

"But don't you find it strange? When did King Shun meet this Kou Sanniang? Was it before or after she divorced? When did they get together? Did they meet in the palace or elsewhere? How many times did they meet? Yue is pregnant, so it is impossible to only see her once or twice, unless she is hiding in the palace, who of you has ever seen the prince frequently go out to meet his lover in private?"

It's not good to be a public figure. As long as you show your face, the news will spread all over the city immediately. I dare not say how public Li Xu's life trajectory is, but I can find out if I want to.

"Maybe you lived in the palace for a while, but you just moved out later?"

"Do you think the prince will let a widow live in the palace? Get along well every day? Can General Kou agree?"

Speaking of General Kou, everyone was dumb again, and it took a while before someone asked, "Do you think it's because those two wanted to grow old together but couldn't have children, so they hired a daughter from the Kou family to give birth to them? Sanniang Kou She is a concubine with an embarrassing status, so it is honorable to have this opportunity, so the prince and General Kou chose her."

Others were taken aback, "You mean... the prince's sweetheart is actually...?"

"Hey, didn't you all know this earlier? Otherwise, why did General Kou live in the palace? But someone has confirmed that the two live together, together! One yard! One room! Do you know what this means?"

"Fart, it's all gossip, who knows if it's true or not?"

"Then my conjecture is very credible, right? It's more credible than what they say about love at first sight and love at first sight, and Fei Qing won't marry me? Do you think a concubine from the Kou family can make the prince fall in love at first sight? Then Kou Sanniang Many people have seen it, and it is not so beautiful."

Everyone thought about it and it was true, "Then why does the prince dare to let that Miss An marry over, wouldn't it be easy to reveal his secrets?"

"Hey, so what if she gets married from afar? Can she go back to her mother's house and cry?"

"But in this way, why let Kou Sanniang have a child, and let the princess have a child?"

"This shows that the prince really loves General Kou. In order to let the blood of the Kou family flow on the eldest son, maybe he will inherit the throne in the future."

Hearing what he said, everyone felt that it was very reasonable, and this point of view quickly gained most of the approval, and then the common people began to sympathize with King Shun: The prince is so pitiful, he can’t even show that he likes someone, what a shame. It's so pathetic.

The same is true of General Kou, what a man he is, he will fall if he says he has fallen, but the two of them are really a match made in heaven, regardless of their gender.

The common people in South Vietnam are not so particular about it, and gossip is enough to make a living after eating a full meal, and they don't mind if King Shun and General Kou really have an affair.

Of course, the main reason is that they can't control it. Who dares to control General Kou's private affairs? They don't know how to write dead characters.

Moreover, King Shun's life is so difficult. If he really has a sweetheart, how can they break them up? I am so sorry for what King Shun has done for them. It doesn't matter whether he likes a man or a monster, as long as King Shun is happy.

However, after learning the "truth", the public couldn't help feeling anxious for the two of them, and even concealed it from the outside world spontaneously. Anyone who came from outside to inquire about it would be dismissed by them righteously, saving Li Xu a lot of trouble.

Li Xu couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this kind of remarks. It is strange to say that the eyes of the masses are discerning. This speculation is not far from the truth. I don't know if everyone will support him when the truth comes out in the future.
