Although the matter of Rong Jin's entry into the palace was a secret, a few people who were very close to her did not intentionally hide it. Nangong Yuanyuan was one of the insiders. The Yun family had been the emperor's close ministers for generations. Rong Jin has a good relationship, and there is no need to hide it.

On this day, Nangong Yuanyuan brought Rong Kang and Jingya into the palace, and made a special trip to visit Kunyi Palace. It happened that Nangong Qiuhu also came over that day, and she was soaking in the pool behind with Rong Jin. At the hottest time, Rong Jin had a pregnant belly of more than nine months and was close to giving birth. She didn't dare to eat anything cold and cool, so she soaked in water every day to relieve the heat. The mountain spring water brought from Xiaoqi Mountain outside the city , delicate and smooth, the water quality is clear and clean, warm and not cold, soaking in it for two quarters of an hour, the whole person will feel refreshed.

Once Rong Jin became interested, she also liked to swim in it twice. Nangong Qiuhu followed to protect him. Seeing him dragging a heavy belly and swimming around like a fish, she wanted to laugh and was worried at the same time. Someone came. Reporting Princess Chang'an's visit, he hurriedly dragged out the fat man who had swam under the shade of a tree and shrank, "Yuanyuan brought Rongkang and the others over here, get up."

When Nangong Qiuhu spoke, Rong Jin had to climb up no matter how reluctant she was. When she first arrived on the shore, the wind was still a little chilly, but the sun was strong enough, so she was not afraid of catching cold. The change of clothes was just a few steps away in the gazebo, which was very convenient .

Nangong Yuanyuan was drinking tea in the room, when she saw Nangong Qiuhu and Rong Jin approaching from a distance, she stood up to greet her, her eyes fell on their overlapping hands, she paused for a moment, then quickly turned away, "Uncle Huang, Brother Rong."

"Yuanyuan, sit down." Nangong Qiuhu raised his hand and pointed, pulling Rong Jin to sit on the upper seat, and carefully put a cushion behind Rong Jin, "Is this okay?"

"En, dad." Rong Jin stretched her waist and leaned up along Nangong Qiuhu's arm.

Nangong Yuanyuan saw all this in her eyes, and she knew about the fact that the emperor's uncle recognized the queen as his daughter, but such a close and tacit way of getting along didn't look like it was raised in a short period of time.

"Yuanyuan, where are Yunkang and Jingya?" Rong Jin asked without seeing the child in the room.

"Rong Kang said that he hasn't seen Jingzhi and Xingzhi for a long time. I asked someone to take him to the study room. Jingya fell asleep, and there was a nanny outside." Not everyone can bring this Kunyi Palace. Yes, she is measured, "The weather is hot, and I haven't been out for a few days. Brother Rong looks really good."

Rong Jin smiled and said: "I don't have anything to worry about, how can I look bad."

Nangong Yuanyuan also laughed, it couldn't be more perfect for Eldest Brother and Eldest Brother Rong to have today's results. At first, I was worried about Eldest Brother marrying Princess Xiling, and how Eldest Brother Rong would deal with himself. , Jing Zhi and Xing Zhi returned to the Rong family, but their three children will be born soon, this will be the first child in the name of the elder brother, the eldest son or the eldest princess is fine, this kind of happiness is really good, "Rong Brother, just now I heard from my mother that this child is coming soon, right?"

Rong Jin was still a little unaccustomed to openly talking about having a baby with others, but she still replied: "The doctor said it will only happen this month."

Yuxi stood behind Nangong Yuanyuan, holding a bundle in her hand. Nangong Yuanyuan reached out to take it at this time, and said with a smile: "Uncle Huang, Brother Rong, I have nothing to do at home, I made some shoes, hats and accessories for the child." Shirts, the craftsmanship is not as fine as that of the Shangyi Bureau, don't joke."

She spoke modestly, but the tiger head on the hat and the flower and bird patterns on the small shoes are all embroidered very delicately, and the stitches on the seemingly ordinary shirt are also very dense, it can be seen that a lot of effort has been put into it, the one in Rong Jin's hand A pair of small shoes, only half the size of a palm, fan-shaped round toe, soft red silk surface, in addition to some common auspicious patterns of wealth and auspiciousness, there are also two beads adorned, the soles are also soft, very delicate, Rong Hibiscus is held in the hand Said to Nangong Qiuhu: "Father, you can see that Yuanyuan's current craftsmanship can really be a teacher. When I lived in Prince Yu's Mansion, she was not married yet. She was a female celebrity and pricked her fingers every day. She always came to find me. I cry."

"Brother Rong..." Speaking of those embarrassing things, Nangong Yuanyuan was very embarrassed, with a face full of embarrassment, she gently pulled Rong Jin's arm to stop her from continuing.

Rong Jin looked at her: "Did I remember wrong? That little girl is not you?"

"Uncle Huang, tell me about Brother Rong..." Nangong Yuanyuan saw that Rong Jin couldn't work here, so she turned to seek other support.

Seeing the relationship between the two children is so good, Nangong Qiuhu was also happy, "Yuanyuan has always been very well-behaved and sensible, Xiaojin, you are an older brother, don't bully Yuanyuan."

Nangong Yuanyuan lifted her chin and said proudly, "Uncle Huang is the best."

Rong Jin asked people to put away the things and save them for future use. Seeing this, she frowned and said, "You are all in the same group, and I am the only one who is a bad person."

Nangong Yuanyuan ran to Nangong Qiuhu dog-leggedly, tapped him on the shoulder, nodded affirmatively to Rong Jin, and said with a smile, "Of course it is like this."

Everyone in the room laughed, and the three of them sat and chatted some homely things. The two girls in the middle of Que Jiuzhan were crying, and Fei Cui carried her over. Lovely, I didn't ask too much.

When it was about lunch time, Rong Xi came to pick up Nangong Qiuhu and saw the two of them leaving hand in hand, Nangong Yuanyuan's heart moved. She didn't think much about it, now that Rong Jin can have a male child, and Nangong Qiuhu and Rong Xi have such a relationship, she has a bold guess, will Big Brother Rong be the real child of Uncle Huang?

Rong Jin wanted to keep her here for lunch, but Nangong Yuanyuan's old lady had some relatives here, and she wanted to go back and take care of her, so Rong Jin didn't stay longer.

Nangong Yuanyuan and Rong Jin said goodbye in the corridor, hesitant to speak.

"Jade, Liuli, I remember that Jiangnan paid a tribute to a batch of Yunjin a few days ago, you go and choose some fresh designs and send them to Princess Changan's car."

"Thank you, Brother Rong."

"The ones with bright colors are better for my daughter's clothes. Yuanyuan, I'll take you out."

The two walked along the path beside the lotus pond at a slow pace, Yuxi followed at a moderate distance, Rong Jin brushed the willow branches in front of her eyes, and said, "Yuanyuan, it's okay to say what's the matter."

Nangong Yuanyuan brushed her hair and called out: "Brother Rong," she hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Brother Rong, have you seen Second Brother Rong recently?"

"What's the matter with him?" Father has visited several times, but he really hasn't been there, one is because it's inconvenient to be pregnant, and the other is because he wants to meet, he really doesn't know what to say, he didn't have any brothers before Love, now that Rong Ji is like this, he doesn't know how to get along with him anymore, and it's dragged on until today.

"Sister Qingyun asked me to tell you that if Brother Rong is free, I would like to invite you to come over to the house." Without going through Brother Rong, she was very disturbed to pass this message to Brother Rong, but when she saw Sister Qingyun that day, she felt that it was too much. Poor, once such a proud princess, seeing that Rong Jin didn't answer, she thought he was thinking about the past, "If Brother Rong is inconvenient, I'll go back."

"I know about this, Yuanyuan."

Nangong Yuanyuan didn't know whether Rong Jin meant seeing or not, but she couldn't ask any more, so she changed the subject and said, "Brother Rong, the lotus pond in your palace is really well maintained, there are so many lotus flowers, I remember that there was also a lotus pond in Brother Rong’s house in Nanshan.”

"Yes, there used to be a big fish pond at home, with reeds on the shore, and wild ducks..." It has not been half a year since I left, Nanshan seems to be a very distant memory.

Afterwards, Rong Jin summoned Xiao Mo into the palace, and heard from him that Nangong Qingyun had been to Prince Rong's mansion in the capital, and they said that the prince had gone away to recuperate from his illness.Nangong Qingyun probably thought that he was avoiding him on purpose, so she begged to Nangong Yuanyuan, not knowing what they were going to do, Rong Jin decided to go there in person another day.

In recent days, something has obviously happened in the court, even the atmosphere in the palace is a little tense, even a person like Rong Jin who stays at home can feel it, Nangong Jingshen discusses political affairs with the courtiers every day until late at night, father and Although the father still came to the palace from time to time, but every time he came and went in a hurry.

Rong Jin got up after a nap and read a book in the study for a while. She was restless and didn't read much. Thinking that Nangong Jingshen didn't come over last night, she wanted to go to the front to see him. Liuli and the others gathered outside to eat iced watermelon. Rong Jin wanted to go out, so she ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair.

There was a phoenix decoration exclusive to the empress on the sedan chair, and there was no obstacle when entering the Qingyuan behind the imperial study.

Rong Jin entered the imperial study room through the back door. There was a voice coming from the sand table room. After he passed by, he found that there were many people, but they hid behind the curtain and did not show up. Su Weiyang stood sideways, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw a slightly clumsy His figure flashed past, he frowned, and didn't make a sound, he was too familiar with that person, he definitely wouldn't admit his mistake, with his current body, the emperor probably wouldn't want him to worry about these things.

"My lord, why are you here?" Fushun also saw Rong Jin.

Rong Jin gestured her fingers to her mouth, Fushun closed her mouth knowingly, moved a chair on tiptoe to wait for him to sit down, went to bring a bowl of tea back, and stayed by the side.

Rong Jin waved his hands to indicate that he was not thirsty. There was a huge sand table in the center of the room. Nangong Jingshen was sitting with his back facing him. There were many courtiers standing around the sand table, including civil servants and military generals, and all of them looked unhappy.He heard Nangong Jingshen ask: "Where might Prince Qi be trapped right now?" Rong Jin's heart trembled, as expected, something happened in Beiyuan, Nangong Zhiyuan was trapped, it seems that things are still very troublesome.

A tall and handsome young general stood a little behind Nangong Jingshen. At this time, he took two steps forward, pointed to a place on the sand table, and replied: "Your Majesty, here is Jiachen Pass in our country. To the north is the Hulan Grassland in Beiyuan. To the west of the Hulan Grassland is a large desert area, and further west is Zhengyang Pass in Xiling. The army of Xiling crossed the desert from here and attacked from the left rear, cutting off our supply of food and grass to the rear.”

As expected, Que Lingjian sent troops, Rong Jin didn't have time to think about it, so he listened intently, and he knew who it was when he heard the young man's voice. General Chen Feng's eldest son, Chen Qiuzi, had been stationed in Jiachenguan with Nangong Zhiyuan for six years, and had just returned to Beijing last year. Now he is the leader of the third grade of the Xiaoqi Camp. Speaking of his familiarity with the terrain near Jiachenguan, there are few people in the capital who can match him. The Jade Mountain Range is the Taikoo Mountain Range to the east, and based on my understanding of Prince Qi, he may stop pursuing and turn eastward into the Taikoo Mountain Range from here."

Rong Jin nodded secretly. The Hulan Grassland is still a long way from the capital of Beiyuan. Food and grass are cut off. Continuing to pursue is tantamount to seeking a dead end. With the familiar terrain of Beiyuan, the light consumption can also consume Daning's army. Death, the Kunyu Mountains are steep and seem to be easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the climate on the mountain is changeable. It is often hot in the morning like summer, and it will snow in the evening. It is definitely not a good place. Only the Taikoo Mountains, although the mountains are high There are dense forests and canyons, but Nangong Zhiyuan can just take advantage of the complex terrain to delay for a while, waiting for reinforcements, and there is a water source there, which can support it in a short time, but after a long time, it will be a problem just to eat.

After Chen Qiuzi finished speaking, the ministers began to discuss how to save people. Rong Jin looked at the back of Nangong Jingshen sitting upright. He was thinking about another problem. Nangong Zhiyuan was trapped. Someone needs to sit in command and stabilize the morale of the army. Otherwise, if the Xiling army attacks in this situation, Jiachen Pass will be difficult to protect. Well, so Jiachenguan must be guarded no matter what. Nangong Zhiyuan has been stationed there all year round. He has a very powerful army and is the prince's respect. When there is great chaos, if he wants to stabilize the army's morale in a short time, this person's prestige must be far away. Far higher than Nangong Zhiyuan.

Therefore, Rong Jin lowered her eyes, flicked her fingertips on the armrest, and Nangong Jingshen wanted... Yujia personally.
