Chapter 152
The candles in the hall burst out with a "pop" sound, and they became brighter in an instant.
Jiang He realized what Zhao Zheng meant by his expression.
"No way?"
She put her hand on it tentatively.
I have heard that the fetus will start to move when it is more than four months old.
But shouldn’t that kind of movement be gentle? Her child seemed to be being punched and kicked.
How naughty.
"He's moving."
Zhao Zheng's voice was soft and slow, as if he wanted to remember this moment forever.
"Why can't I feel it?" Jiang He's hand moved around his abdomen, a little anxiously.
"It seems he is saying hello to Gu." Zhao Zheng's smile showed pride, "He is greeting Gu Qin."
"Hmph!" Jiang He said in a feint of anger, "You're not kissing me?"
Zhao Zheng smiled and lifted the brocade quilt, took off his short boots and lay down next to Jiang He, holding her in his arms.
"I just want to kiss you."
Sure enough, he kissed her, his soft lips with the warmth of ripening rice ears in autumn, wrapped around her red lips, nibbling slowly, making Jiang He laugh.
Zhao Zheng just like this, gently patted her belly with one hand, like coaxing a child to sleep, and held her head with the other hand, plundering the sweetness from her tenderness.
The interior is full of charm, the curtains embroidered with the Hundred Sons are swinging, and the newly repaired screen is still painted with beautiful scenes of mountains and rivers.
The palace door slowly closed, and the lights in the courtyard were bright.
The palace maid held the lantern and retreated, leaving the night to the king and the future queen in the palace.
At this time in Luoyang, Wei State, the starry sky was shining brightly and the moonlight was charming. A pear fell from a branch, hit the ground with a bang, rolled around a few times, and then stopped at the man's feet.
Wei Ji, the prince of Wei Kingdom, lowered his head to pick up the pear, ran his fingers over the peel, and sighed: "It's so small, it's too early to leave the branch."
"Brother!"
A crisp call interrupted Wei Ji's thoughts, and a light came on at the moon gate, but Wei Zipei was faster than the maid holding the ran over, panting.
Wei Ji stood still and looked at her, a little confused.
"what happened?"
"Brother, I heard that the Chu State envoy was in Xianyang to assassinate the Yong State King. Is it true?"
"Yes." Wei Ji frowned.
"Then I heard that King Yong and Princess Anguo are fine, but Mr. Jiang..."
Mr. Jiang was stabbed and fell unconscious, his life or death uncertain.
Wei Zipei suddenly fell silent and seemed unable to speak any more.
She held her fingers together and punched her skirt a few times, expecting her brother to have news that was different from hers.
"He's not awake yet," Wei Ji said.
Every day, news comes from Yong Kingdom.
As an enemy country that Wei was likely to fight against in the future, Wei Ji naturally knew the movements of the Yong court.
Wei Zipei now has many ministers in the court, so it must be easy to find out about this matter.
Just looking at her nervous and concerned look, it couldn't be...
Wei Ji's heart seemed to be tightly grasped and released, and he felt stagnant and depressed for a moment.
"Zipei," he asked, "you..."
"I want to see him," Wei Zipei forced a smile, clutching her long dress with tears in her eyes, "I'm worried about him."
"You can't do anything," Wei Ji said, "You're not a doctor either."
When Wei Ji sent his sister to Qi, he really wanted her to be protected by Jiang looking at the current situation, Jiang Ben will stay in Yong State and become an enemy of Wei State.
In such a situation, it is already dangerous to stay around him.
"Although I am not a doctor," Wei Zipei retorted, "but what I can do, a doctor may not be able to do."
"Zipei waits for one more day, maybe the news of Mr. Jiang's awakening will come back."
"Brother," Wei Zipei said through gritted teeth, "my horse is faster."
After she finished speaking, she took a step back and turned around. It looked like she was about to miss the night and rush on her way.
"Zi Pei!"
Wei Ji raised his hand to stop him, but he watched Wei Zipei's cyan skirt disappear at the moon gate, and finally said nothing and smiled in frustration.
The sleeves were hanging down, and the autumn wind passed through the gaps between the fingers. It was soft and gentle, but nothing was left behind.
But maybe his sister can leave something behind.
"Find a few people to follow," Wei Ji said after thinking for a while, "to protect the safety of Her Highness the Princess."
There were guards behind him and left in response, and Wei Ji raised his head.
This pear tree is growing well and has a lot of pears.
I wonder if a pregnant woman can eat pears.
She is going to be a mother.
There was a red dress fluttering in front of her eyes, and the woman's cheeks were as bright as stars.
Her children must be well-behaved, sensible, and live a long life.
"Who put the knife on my bed? It hurt my legs!"
When Jiang Ben, the young master of Qi State, woke up from his sleep, his first words were to complain.
The maid who was waiting by the bed knelt down after hearing this and said cautiously: "The young master has been holding on to this knife. Her Royal Highness saw that she was about to take it away, but she couldn't pull it off. She said that maybe it was because of the young master's thoughts that she didn't let him move anymore. "
Sister is here? That means my sister is fine! Jiang Ben breathed a sigh of relief and the so-called thinking...
He picked up the short knife and saw that the blood stains on it had been wiped clean, revealing the two small words "I think".
"Hey," Jiang Ben snorted disdainfully, "Isn't it just a knife? What's there to think about?"
As he spoke, he made a motion to throw it away, but in the end he did not throw it away. Instead, he pretended not to care and placed it on the bedside table.
"Hurry up and serve the food, I'm starving to death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a noise in the courtyard.
"There are assassins!"
Come again?
Jiang Ben stood up immediately. He took a few sharp breaths because of the pain of pulling on the wound, and almost fainted.
"Let go of me!"
The princess of Wei, Wei Zipei, who was dragged down from the wall by the guards, looked in a mess, with dirt stains on her clothes and a piece of grass stuck in her hair. She was completely without her usual bright and domineering appearance.
"It's me! Princess Wei!"
As Wei Zipei said, he handed over the name card. At this time, there was a commotion outside the gate, and it was Wei's guards who were breaking through the door.
"Wei Zipei!"
Although he was out of breath, Jiang Ben, who moved out after being alarmed, still spoke loudly: "Do you want to die? Climb the wall in broad daylight?"
"I handed over the name card, and the steward came in to report it. When he came back, he said that you were not awake yet and couldn't be disturbed. I just climbed over the wall! I don't blame you!"
Wei Zipei's eyes lit up when he saw it was Jiang Ben.
He is fine!
As long as it's good, it won't be in vain that I hit and kill a hare on the road at night.
Because the young master confirmed the identity of the visitor, the guards immediately retreated, and the entrance to the embassy became quiet.
"Didn't you go back?" Jiang Ben thought of what his assassin said and suddenly became worried, "Why are you back?"
"I don't trust you." Wei Zipei said loudly in front of the envoys, guards, servants, servants and maids in the courtyard, "I heard that you were unconscious after being assassinated, so I had to come and take a look to make myself feel relieved."
"Hey." Jiang Ben curled his lips and turned around, but there was a smile in his eyes.
He limped and said, "Looking at your ugly appearance, why don't you go and wash yourself off?"
Wei Zipei was not angry. Instead, he smiled and followed Jiang Ben and said, "Okay, okay, I want to use your clean room."
"You came to visit a patient and you didn't even get anything. Why do you have the nerve to clean the room?"
"You are my friend. There is no need to be polite between friends."
Jiang Ben smiled and raised his hand to remove the weeds from her hair, but soon he inhaled sharply in Zipei subconsciously held Jiang Ben's arm. He was startled, but due to lack of strength, he did not move away in the end.
"You look ugly..."
"You are ugly..."
They disappeared at the door of the dormitory, and everyone in the courtyard also dispersed.
A plain white figure stood not far away, looked at it for a moment, then slowly lowered his head and left slowly.
Her steps were so slow, as if she were walking on the tip of a knife.
When Jiang He arrived, Wei Zipei had already changed into the clothes sent by the guard and was sitting on Jiang Ben's bedside playing with the short knife.
"You owe me your life."
"Why?"
"If it weren't for my knife, would you be able to do it?"
"Why not?" He suddenly raised his hand to grab the knife, his fingers touched Wei Zipei's cheek, and there was a momentary pause.
Jiang He came in at this moment, startling Jiang Ben and coughing loudly.
Wei Zipei stood up and looked at Jiang He with some embarrassment. It took a long time before he remembered to salute.
"Your Highness."
She folded her hands in front of her chest and gently bent her knees as a courtesy when meeting peers.
Jiang He returned the favor and smiled lightly at her.
She still remembered how she looked when she saw this girl in the past, full of life and time he was very well-behaved, probably because of Jiang Ben's influence.
"It's been a hard journey, princess."
Jiang He sat down with a smile and said warmly.
"What's so hard for her? Sister, it's really hard for me to be injured." Jiang Ben answered first.
Jiang He nodded and said: "You are just working hard. General Su left the hell gate to save you. If it weren't for Miss Chen's decoction, I'm afraid you would have died in the line of duty. When you can walk around, you should go and thank others."
"Yes." Jiang Ben's expression immediately became solemn and he responded solemnly.
After a while, he suddenly remembered something, touched his body, and said anxiously: "Did you lose that pill? Your Majesty - oh no, is he okay?"
"It's not lost." Jiang He said, "It's just that the pill is not enough. I came here today just to ask if the person you sent to Bohai to inquire about the news has returned."
Judging from what Wei Nanxu said, the medicine was probably just a is really useful is that it can be controlled by the owner and remove the poisonous beetles.
Therefore, Zhao Zheng's illness needs to be looked at from the beginning.
Jiang Ben immediately called someone to ask.
He didn't know what happened to the embassy after he was unconscious for several days.
The steward arrived immediately and said that those people had just returned yesterday and were still waiting for Jiang Ben to wake up before they could report.
"Okay." Jiang He said, "Call them over."
After thinking for a while, she said again: "Call Miss Chen here too."
