Fake concubine, real queen

Qian Zhixian was very sad.

He is also very old now, and he finally donated his family money to a small official. At the beginning, he also thought that although Yangxi was only a small county town, he lived alone at the Kunqiong Pass. Even if you want to control it, you will be out of reach, and you will have to delay for a long time once you come and go. Therefore, although Yangxi is not very rich, being a parent official here can be regarded as outstanding, compared to those who are in a mansion. It is much more comfortable to show his face, but he has to be cautious and rely on others, and it is perfect for him to support the elderly.

Unexpectedly, seeing that he is about to reach his age, he will go home to retire in a prosperous manner, but there is a war in the north. Yangxi is obviously in the hinterland of the Central Plains, but he can also be implicated because of these unlucky mud legs, and he is lucky to die Undead was bumped into by the third prince when he passed by here.

He had heard about this third prince before, but all the good things about him from Beijing were that he was knowledgeable, polite, and easy-going. So what happened-

Thinking of what he had just been dragged into the post station to explain, Qian Zhixian felt bitter in his mouth.

... With so many victims, in a small place like Yangxi, where would he go to borrow so much food, enough to help the victims for half a month?

Well, even...Even if he misappropriated some from the Yangxi granary before...It's all because of the county magistrate who killed a thousand knives. He clearly promised him at the beginning, and others must not notice anything about it, but why? Now that the third prince arrived at Yangxi, he didn't even take a second look at the situation of the granary, so he could guess right?

It may not be a big deal to others, but if the third prince really grabs him at this juncture and stabs it, let alone go back His family told Lao Rong to take care of him, and it would be difficult for him to have a good death. After all, he was far from those who were born in the imperial examination. He had layers of connections between the court and China.

The magistrate of Qian had no choice but to take the responsibility. Although he was unwilling, he still had to follow the order of the third prince to resettle the victims who fled here from the north.

Zuo But really couldn't support it, so he took his belongings and came in to bear it first...put it on the account of the county government, and then wait for the court to come to pay back the food.

However, things backfired. Qian Zhixian thought very well, but the victims did not buy it.

However, the third prince who can take care of things and restrain these unruly people just now doesn't know what's going on, and he doesn't know what he heard. Originally, he was staring at him and forcing him to set up a porridge field and let the victims rest. The shed suddenly came to a halt, and asked for a pair of carriages and horses for him without thinking, and ordered that the inside must be padded with several layers of soft cushions. With the carriages and horses, the people ran away without a trace.

Seeing him leaving, Qianzhi County was secretly relieved, but he didn't expect that these unscrupulous people would already have resistance to the Yangxi County Yamen because of the fact that the front yamen guards expelled them out of the city, and they didn't trust him as the parent official. , Very disobedient, even gathered a crowd to make trouble, saying that there were bandits in the mountains, and there were a lot of them, and asked the Yangxi county government to send people out to suppress the bandits.

Simply ridiculous!

Yangxi is also the hinterland of the Central Plains, and it is not the Zongshan and Guanwai where they fled. There are really some bandits who are making trouble and harassing the country. How could the masters of the Wuling Mansion not know?How could the imperial court ignore it and let it go?

Alarmist talk and nonsense, these troublemakers from the Northland are really hateful.

But you can't hit, scold, scold, and chase, otherwise, if the third prince sees someone who is not good, the light but hard-won black gauze hat on his head may be lost.

It's just that I don't know what the third prince wanted to do with such a carriage. The prince himself didn't seem to be in the carriage... Could it be that he was going to pick someone up?

Qianzhi County was in a state of desperation, wondering about the whereabouts of the third prince who suddenly disappeared, who knew that Cao Cao Cao Cao had arrived, just as he was thinking in his heart, someone came from the north gate of the city over there to spread the word that the third prince had returned.

He had been arguing with the victims for a whole day, and he was so annoying that he immediately planned to go to the north of the city to meet the Third Prince, and wanted to ask him to be merciful and lenient.

Ask him to borrow the food for the ten-day relief within two days, otherwise he will be questioned——

This is really too harsh for an old man like him, but he asks for it himself, whether it is sending money or goods, or begging him in a low voice, as long as the young prince is willing to let his old money live , Let him do whatever he wants, that's all.

Before Qian Zhixian left, his heart was already in a trance because of the toss, but the master who followed him thought of something, stopped Qian Zhixian, and did not let him leave immediately.

"What's wrong?" Qian Zhixian asked.

"Master Tangzun, don't blame the villain for talking too much. We did not handle things properly before. Tangzun has already provoked the eyes of the third prince. If we are not careful, we will offend him later. He will make things up. The evaluation of the Ministry of Officials is definitely not good, so how can you get an official post?" The master replied.

"You say this, the county knows it all, but what's the use of knowing it, who knows that this master looks soft, but he's not easy to get along with. He's a soft-hearted master. You've seen it before, this county What else can I do?" Qian Zhixian sighed, "I can only follow what he said, and think of a way for now, borrowing food locally..."

But the master shook his head, and came closer and said in a low voice: "That's not necessarily the case. Earlier, the Third Prince asked for that set of chariots and horses, and the villain obeyed his orders. Such a chariot and horses must be mostly for women, so they are not women. Tang Zun saw that he went in such a hurry, it can be seen that the third prince must value the person in the car, and if he wants to manage good people, no matter what his status is, no matter how wealthy he is, the most important thing is to do what he likes, Tang Zun thinks that the villain is right?"

Qian Zhixian was stunned, and said: "You mean... but I look at this prince, he doesn't look like a womanizer, this..."

The master said: "There is no mistake in preparing more. No matter whether it is a woman or not, a carriage needs to prepare so many cushions, and we also need to prepare incense and tea for calming the nerves and breathing on the carriage. I'm afraid the person's health is not very good, since that's the case, let's make preparations and wait for the prince to ask about it later, wouldn't it be good?"

Qian Zhixian suddenly said: "It's the county's negligence, or the master's thoughtfulness. If that's the case, go to the county and invite a doctor to come, and tell him to come right away! I'll go to the north of the city and bring the prince back!"

---------

Along the way, He Gu's mind was buzzing.

In the past, he would definitely not have been willing to abandon his horse and ride in some kind of expensive carriage, but just now His Highness's sentence "If you and the child have a mistake", He Gu was completely confused.

He was also very at a loss as to how he got off the horse and got into the car in a daze.

All I can think about is--

Isn't the child already gone?

Could it be...Zhengye didn't tell His Highness the fact that he had taken the medicine prescribed by Miss Yan?

Looking at the appearance of His Highness the Third Highness, he didn't see any pain of bereavement at all, it really didn't look like he knew that he drank the baby medicine, but Zheng Ye, the unlucky reminder, why did he lie to His Highness Third? ?

Right now, the Third Highness is happy, but if he waits for him to tell His Highness that the child is actually gone, the Third Highness...won't you die of anger...

But now that he knew about it, he couldn't hide it anymore. Right now, there were so many people on the road that it was inconvenient to tell him, but he had to tell him when he returned to Yangxi, and he definitely couldn't hide it.

Isn't Zhengye giving him a problem? !

There is probably nothing in the world that is more difficult than the moment when the guillotine is in front of you before the execution, but it is still lingering.

He Gu was restless all the way, he could only scold Zhengye eight hundred times in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

After finally getting to Yangxi County, he got out of the carriage and saw that Qian Zhixian was smiling like a winter jasmine, and he didn't know what to say to the Third Highness.

He Gu was puzzled here, but when Pei Zhaoheng and Qian Zhixian saw him jumping off the carriage, Qiqi's eyelids twitched——

His Highness the Third Highness immediately left behind Qian Zhixian, who was stunned for some reason, and stepped forward to support He Gu in two steps, frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "Zihuan, you..."

Surrounded by a group of government offices and young men brought by Qianzhi County, there was a huge crowd, with a lot of people, and he still didn't say what he said, but He Gu understood it inexplicably. Pulling out a somewhat awkward smile, he held back for a long time before whispering: "Then what... Your Highness... Your Highness is worrying too much. In fact, I really have nothing to do. Even if I run and jump, nothing will happen. question……"

Pei Zhaoheng didn't answer, but just looked at him without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

Qian Zhixian finally came back to his senses, approached from the side with a smirk, and said, "Third Prince, this... this military lord is..."

Pei Zhaoheng showed a little impatience to outsiders, which is rare, and turned his head to look at Qian Zhixian. His usually indifferent peach eyes narrowed slightly at this moment, and they were a little narrow. His facial features were originally sharp, but fortunately, he was usually With those soft peach blossom eyes in harmony, he will not appear aggressive, but once the softness is weakened at this moment, the lines of his face are sharp and clear, with a hint of coldness in the sharpness, and the natural aggressiveness cannot be hidden , Qian Zhixian's heart was suddenly frightened, and he dared not continue to speak.

Qian Zhixian finally shut up and made quail, and then Pei Zhaoheng turned his eyes back again, looked at He Gu and said, "... see the doctor."

However, I really didn’t know what trip I was going to catch today, and I happened to be in one place. As soon as I returned to Yangxi Post Station, He Gu saw a figure standing at the gate of the post station. He looked closely at Chun Tong who was following behind with a medicine box on his back. Who is it if it's not Miss Yan?

Seeing her, He Gu breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly thought that Miss Yan was there, so he could explain this clearly to His Highness the Third Highness.

This time Qian Zhixian didn't even get in the main entrance, so he was directly turned away by the two door gods Cheng Wei and Zhou Yufei.

In the hall sat Pei Zhaoheng, He Gu, and Yan Zhiya, with Chuntong standing beside them.

He Gu looked around and said, "Where is Zhengye?"

Chun Tong thought for a while, and replied: "Back to Master Hou, just now when I came, I saw Brother Yan dawdling outside the yard, but he didn't come in. I asked him to come in, but he just couldn't speak, saying that he was afraid of disturbing the conversation of the masters. Business."

He Gu grinds his back molars, knowing that Zhengye, a bastard, probably has a guilty conscience, so he dare not come to see him, but he can't explain what happened today without him.

Then he said to Chuntong, "Go and call him in."

Chun Tong turned her head to look at Yan Zhiya, and saw that she also nodded, so she took her order and turned to go out.

As soon as Chuntong went out, Pei Zhaoheng said: "Miss Yan, can I ask what happened to Zihuan's body?"

When He Gu heard this, his heart suddenly jumped.

He also wondered how the Third Highness accepted it so quickly, but now it seems that he doesn't know much about it, but thinking about it, it is true, after all, he has lived two lifetimes, and it is the first time he has seen a man pregnant. The Third Highness is really not surprised, that's not normal.

It was He Gu himself who had been in a state of ignorance and trance when Miss Yan told him "Youxi". After all, he was a man. It is really hard for people to accept the abnormality, this belly has already given birth to a small life like a woman.

If it wasn't Yan Zhiya who said this, He Gu would definitely not believe it.

Later, he will drink the medicine for the child, and he will rather believe it or not. After all, it's fine if it doesn't exist. If it really comes true as Miss Yan said, then he will be in the army... Having a big belly is definitely not a good thing for He Gu himself, even for the unborn child, it is life and death unpredictable, good or bad for the unborn child...

Yan Zhiya said: "Did Zhengye tell the prince?"

Pei Zhaoheng said: "It's all said, Zihuan rode out of the city on horseback. The incident happened suddenly, so I don't have to ask in detail."

Yan Zhiya was stunned when he heard the words, turned to look at He Gu who opened his eyes slightly, seemed a little speechless, and said after a while: "Master Hou, why are you still riding a horse..."

After finishing speaking, he realized that what he said was meaningless. After all, Lord He Xiaohou is still in the army. Riding a horse and shooting an arrow is really normal, but he...

Yan Zhiya closed her eyes and sighed, then opened her eyes and looked at Pei Zhaoheng and said, "My lord, just as Zhengye told you, the young master is very happy."

Pei Zhaoheng paused, and said: "A man's birth... Well, Zihuan... is a man after all, will there be any hindrance to his body?"

Yan Zhiya thought for a while, then shook her head, and said: "In all fairness, if the prince wants to ask me this, I'm not sure. I have little knowledge. Before the young master, I have never seen such a case of a man becoming pregnant. I'm really not sure whether this child, Master Hou, will be able to stay and what will hinder his body."

Pei Zhaoheng was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Your diagnosis is not wrong? Zihuan is indeed..."

Yan Zhiya said: "Actually, I didn't make a mistake in the diagnosis. The prince knew it when he counted the time. According to the pulse of the Lord Hou, it was almost four months ago. The prince and the young master... cough... Anyway, that The time just happened to be before leaving the capital, the prince should know whether he was wrong or not."

When He Gu heard this, his face started to burn almost immediately, his eyes "whoosh" quickly moved away, he was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to put it——

Well, it is true that he should have known a long time ago that Miss Yan gave him the pulse. How could he not know what happened between him and the third highness? of……

However, Lord He Xiaohou was embarrassed, but the Third Highness over there was very serious. Obviously he didn't feel embarrassed, he just lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said: "The time is indeed right."

Yan Zhiya said: "That's it. I also had my doubts. I at least confirmed it with the young master ten times before I dare to make an assertion. Since the time is right, it is even more impossible for it to go wrong."

Pei Zhaoheng was silent for a while, then said: "...In that case, this child shouldn't be kept."

When He Gu heard this, he was slightly startled, and when he raised his eyes, he met Pei Zhaoheng's indifferent and clear peach blossom eyes, which were staring at him intently.

...He actually said that.

Yan Zhiya was obviously a bit surprised: "This..."

Pei Zhaoheng looked at He Gu and was silent for a long time without saying a word. He didn't know what he was thinking. After a long time, he said slowly: "...Since the girl doesn't know whether it is good or bad for Zihuan to give birth to a man, Life is the most important thing, Zihuan shouldn't take this risk, I wonder if there is any way to kill this child?"

Yan Zhiya came back and understood what Pei Zhaoheng meant, but she just shook her head and said, "If it was before, it would be fine, but now, it has been four months, and now this child is here, Lord Hou is afraid I have to suffer a lot, and maybe I will fall ill in the future..."

Before she finished speaking, He Gu said: "Miss Yan, I have already drank the soup you caught that day, and now the child... the child should be gone, right?"

Yan Zhiya was slightly taken aback, then turned to look at He Gu, and said, "...What? Didn't Zhengye say..."

At this moment, Chuntong's clear voice came from outside the door: "My lord, my lord, Miss, brother Zhengye is here."

Yan Zhiya said: "Let him come in, you go out first and wait."

Chun Tong said: "Yes, I know."

Then quit.

As for Zhengye, from the beginning to the end of entering the door, his eyes did not dare to fall on He Gu.

He Gu snorted coldly and said: "You are very capable, did I tell you to say it, you just say it? And you are talking nonsense, you explain it yourself, what did you say to the prince?"

Zhengye plucked up the courage to raise his eyes and blinked to look at He Gu, but it was a pity that the other party remained motionless like Yan Luo with a cold face, and then looked at Yan Zhiya——

Miss Yan is obviously helpless.

Zhengye gritted his teeth, and had no choice but to answer truthfully: "I didn't say anything, just...whatever the situation is, I will tell the prince what the situation is, the fire can't be contained in the paper, if you know it sooner or later, the prince will always know , you don't take your body seriously, so I can only say..."

He Gu said: "Why didn't I take my body seriously, I..."

Yan Zhiya said: "Now that you have a body, although men's physiques are indeed stronger than women's, Lord Hou really shouldn't ride horses and drink alcohol at will. These will hurt the child, or even hurt Lord Hou himself."

He Gu said: "When did I drink, I didn't drink, I..."

As he was talking, he suddenly realized something, his pupils shrank slightly, and he lost his voice.

Zhengye complained: "Master Hou rode a horse and ran away today, what do you want to do, I almost died of fright, I..."

But He Gu suddenly said: "...No, what are you talking about, isn't that child already dead?"

Turning to look at Pei Zhaoheng again, he said, "Your Highness, I... I've already drank Luozi Tang..."

Zhengye wondered, "Since when did you drink that thing? Didn't you all say not to drink it? I threw it away long ago."

He Gu looked back at him, the expression on his face froze in place.

"...you...what did you say?"

Zhengye said: "Luozi Tang, Lord Hou doesn't use it, I would have thrown it away long ago, it's useless to keep it."

He Gu suddenly understood something, and a terrible idea popped up in his heart, but he had no choice but to prove it, so he had to say word by word with some difficulty: "I... When did I let you throw it away, then... On that day you What did you give me to drink, and... and the medicine you gave me during this time?"

Zhengye took it for granted, "What other medicine is there? It must be the medicine that Dr. Yan prescribed for us to calm the fetus!"

The expression on He Gu's face was so tense that it didn't collapse, but his mind was already buzzing, and every word that popped out between his teeth sounded like he had exhausted all his strength.

"Then... isn't that Luozi Tang?"

Zhengye was taken aback when he heard the words, this time he really had to make He Gu laugh, scratched his head and said: "Master, you are so funny, where did you get the Luozi soup? You have to drink it non-stop for a month? I haven't heard of any Luozi soup. My child, it took so long, and you have been doing well this month, you sleep well, you eat well, you eat well, and you haven’t seen any popularity. Who can lose three catties after giving birth, haha...haha...ha ..."

Haha twice, seeing the expression on He Gu's face, he couldn't go on haha.

He Gu was silent for a long time, feeling the sadness of being played by this ruthless world, and a sense of absurdity coming from nowhere, and he didn't know where to direct this anger, so he could only watch Zhengye gritted his teeth and said : "...you fucking dare to laugh?"

Zhengye: "..."

Zhengye: "...I...I can't stop laughing, isn't it okay? I'm also thinking about the safety of my father and my son, I..."

He Gu said angrily: "My son's fart! You are alive!"

Zhengye rubbed his nose and whispered: "It's not my seed, how could it be my birth..."

Seeing that he dared to reply back, He Gu's brain suddenly became hot, and he became very annoyed. He raised his hand and grabbed the teacup on the table next to him to throw it on the ground, but he was caught by a big hand in the middle of the movement.

He Gu was taken aback for a moment, then turned his eyes and looked right into the black pupils of Pei Zhaoheng who was looking at him.

"...Zihuan."

He Gu looked at these eyes, and for some reason suddenly became dazed, and that strange piece of "Thinking and Everything Comes into Jade" appeared in his mind, which was similar to these eyes, but looked cold. Su Sen turned cold to the eyes of "that Pei Zhaoheng" more than a little.

And by accident, he thought of the words of the yellow-faced Taoist priest he met in front of the Guanyin Temple outside Bianjing.

……

"Ordinary living people are destined for a lifetime, and they are full of yang energy, but the young master was supposed to enter the yin gate, but he didn't. He is also a yin and yang pole, so he is no longer an ordinary mortal. Remember, don't get too close to the people of Zhiyang, otherwise..."

"...be careful with a big belly!"

……

He Gu: "..."

So what happened today, could it be that it was preordained long ago, and there are days in the dark?

...Or, maybe that yellow-faced Taoist priest is not a magic stick, but someone with real abilities?

But now I don't know where to find him.

……correct!

He Gu was shocked suddenly, and suddenly remembered something——

My aunt also met the Taoist priest once, and bought him a bottle of the Taoist priest's sky-high priced pills!

Now, can he only hope that the bottle of pills will have other magical effects?
