The Zheng Family was quite close to the palace, so Xie Jingxi decided to pay a visit to the Lady Sun s. Xie Jingxi found out about quite a few things about the palace, such as the body of the Imperial Consort Shen s.
Ever since the Fourth Prince was born, his body had never been able to recover, and recently, he was still in a worse condition. He heard that he was not able to get out of bed for a period of time, and after that, he was recuperated by the Imperial Physician Pei, which was much better than before. However, the situation was still not looking good.
Ever since Aunt Fang had a body, she had almost never stepped out of the Second Branch's courtyard. She was indeed more cautious than the Second Young Madam back then, and although she was not clear about the dirty and salty matters in the Palace, she was very good at being on guard, and she even ate and drank very carefully.
To avoid arousing suspicion, Xie Jingxi didn't ask too much, she only instructed the manor's people to take care of the situation. Just as they were about to leave, Lady Zeng suddenly had a burst of energy, and personally asked about the matters concerning the future of the family. She was probably really scared, and finally managed to get a third child of Gu Heng's group.
Marquis was also suddenly concerned. These few days, the Zhao Family had been entering and exiting the inner and outer court frequently, preparing for something to happen, making everyone in Marquis Mansion a little nervous. However, Gu Heng still did what he had to do, as if the child was not his.
Xie Jingxi had not been in too much of a rush recently, and had taken care of the matters in the house, so she was very idle. After eating lunch, she laid on the bed and squinted, while Fang Yu anxiously went outside, following Ming Yu: "The Aunt Fang from the second courtyard has started, has Madame woken up?"
"Not yet. I'll go get her."
Normally, Xie Jingxi would be able to hear any movement outside, but today, she was probably in a daze, so when Ming Yu came in to call her, she was stunned. When she heard that Aunt Fang had activated it, she suddenly stood up, and her vision went dark, and she almost fell back down.
Ming Yu supported her, "Is Miss crazy? "It's my fault for making such a big fuss, otherwise, we would have to go back later."
Xie Jingxi concentrated, "It's fine, let's go now." As she walked, she instructed Fang Yu, "Be sure to pay attention to the things that are delivered into Aunt Fang's room, especially the medicine and soup.
"I can wake up Madam. Ming Yu, take care of Madam. I'll go over first."
"Sister Fang Yu is indeed meticulous." Ming Yu had a very good impression of Fang Yu, "There's a lot of things that I didn't expect her to tell me, to be even more considerate towards this lady than I am."
Xie Jingxi did not say anything, "Go over later and speak less, especially Yue Wen who is in the courtyard of Second Young Master, watch him more closely when you have nothing to do."
"Oh, I know."
When Xie Jingxi went over, Aunt Fang was already in pain, and every time she heard this voice, her scalp would go numb, and she would unconsciously think back to when Xie Jingqi was giving birth to the baby. Furthermore, it was in the same courtyard, Xie Jingxi peeked at Second Young Madam's house, and saw that her door was tightly shut, as if she had already made up her mind to not ask the Aunt Fang about it.
Seeing how Aunt Fang couldn't bear to have a brother or something bad happen to him, Lady Zeng would probably go crazy. Xie Jingxi endured the numbness in her scalp, taking care of everyone who went in and out of the house and felt that it was unfair. She thought that since the second house had children, as the father's mother, she shouldn't ask too much, what the hell was going on.
The Aunt Fang had been howling for an entire day and had not seen anyone. Luckily, the Marquis had sent people to look for someone, but they did not see him, and luckily, they were able to see him. Luckily, the birth of the Aunt Fang was smooth sailing, and when they were in a hurry, they had a brother, the Lady Zeng was overjoyed, and kept muttering to herself: "He who is lucky is blessed, I thought today was a good day, but sure enough, I was born before the time of the child.
Xie Jingxi supported the Lady Zeng, "Since Aunt Fang is alive, mother will go back and rest first. Tian'er, it's getting late, your health is more important, leave the rest to your wife."
Lady Zeng rarely held out until this hour, so after her efforts just now, she was indeed a little bit tired and panicked. Thus, she gave a few instructions and was helped back to her room by Feng Jing. Coincidentally, with her departure, Gu Heng had also returned. Most likely, after Marquis said a few words to him, he turned around to take a look unwillingly.
The people in his courtyard all congratulated Gu Heng, "Congratulations to Second Young Master for getting such a great son."
Gu Heng raised his eyelids, and said indifferently: "Go down and ask for your rewards." Then, he glanced at Xie Jingxi, "Oh, sister-in-law is still here. It's been hard on you, sister-in-law.
Gu Heng did not even bother to take a look at Aunt Fang's house, and directly went in front of Xie Jingxi. Xie Jingxi felt bored in her heart, "Since you're back, I'll go back first, your son and aunt should go in first."
In the time it took Xie Jingxi to take a step, the dizziness came back again. From noon till now, she was still dripping with water, her stomach was empty, and it was extremely uncomfortable. Seeing her steps wobble, Gu Heng quickly supported her up, and the strange air that she owed for a beating was gone, her eyes had a tinge of anxiety, "What happened to you? But I'm tired, hurry up and ask the doctor to come take a look! "
Xie Jingxi subconsciously wanted to struggle free from him, but she found it difficult to do so, and her arms were tightly held by him, causing her heart to become restless, "I'm fine, release me first."
Gu Heng's eyes were filled with anger, "At this point of time you're still on guard against me, do you really think I'm this unbearable in your heart? Look at your face, this is how he takes care of you!"
"How I take care of my wife is my business, there's no need for Second Brother to worry." Gu Yun suddenly came in from outside and hugged Xie Jingxi up without any explanation. Then, he glanced at Gu Heng from the corner of his eyes, "Also, congratulations Second Brother for getting such a great son."
Until Gu Yun had walked far away with him, Gu Heng was still standing where he was, his fists clenched tightly, all the unreconciled people smashing the tables, with a "peng" sound, scaring everyone in the room to the point that they knelt down, but Gu Heng did not even glance at them, and directly walked towards the study room.
Yue Wen, who was still waiting for him in the study room, came over with a bowl of hot soup. "Master, I just heated up the soup for you, take advantage of the heat …" "Ah …
Before Yue Wen could finish her sentence, Gu Heng had already grabbed her arm, the soup scattered all over the place without a care, and directly carried Yue Wen onto the bed, then violently tore off her clothes. Yue Wen endured Gu Heng's rudeness as she continuously muttered the two words "Xi", as tears of humiliation flowed down the corner of her eyes.
Gu Yun carried Xie Jingxi back to his room and instructed Ming Yu who was waiting outside, "Go and bring your young lady a bowl of hot porridge."
"Forget it since it's so late. I don't really want to eat right now." In reality, Xie Jingxi was not much, she was just hungry, only that her brain was still filled with Aunt Fang's howls, and she had no appetite to eat, but seeing Gu Yun's unquestionable gaze, she immediately did not dare say anything, because it was obvious that Master Gu was angry.
Although the two of them knew what Gu Heng was doing, Gu Yun had never displayed anything that made it difficult for her, but it was still the first time they met like this, and the words that they spoke were clearly provocation and doubt. The current Gu Heng did not restrain himself as he did in the past, for in front of a room full of servants, he was disrespectful to Xie Jingxi's words and actions, so no one would be happy if they saw it.
In fact, Xie Jingxi was also very embarrassed, but she didn't know what to say, and could only hug him in his embrace, "You just returned home too, why don't you accompany me to drink some porridge? I'm really fine, just that I wasn't hungry at night."
Gu Yun carried her until she was on the bed before putting her down, then encircled her from the back, one hand feeling her pulse, and the other trying to feel the temperature of her forehead. After feeling around for a long time, he could not come to any conclusion as he said, "I heard from Fang Yu that you often get dizziness these days, so I told the old man to let you have a look.
Fang Yu was different from Fang Dai, as she would always report the details of daily life to Gu Yun. Xie Jingxi was not comfortable with this, but since she was Gu Yun's man, reporting daily life was also fine, so it was not good for Xie Jingxi to not ask him to come, but regarding Old Man Ji, the reason why he was so ill was so that he did not invite him over, but right now, he wanted to let her take a look at his meridians. Xie Jingxi immediately became anxious, "It's better not to report to Grandfather, it's not too bad for me, it's the same for Pei Zixi."
Gu Yun once again encircled her, and put his face right on top of hers, "It's okay, just be careful, your body is more important, plus you haven't seen your grandmother for a long time, so it's good for you to go over and take a look."
Hearing him say that, Xie Jingxi immediately thought of the matter of His Majesty calling him a prince master, "Could it be that His Majesty already sensed that Grandfather was in the capital?"
If Second Prince wants to protect him, he has already investigated the matter regarding my grandfather in private, so he discovered that it is only a matter of time. What should come will eventually come, so why delay Xi? "
But even so, Xie Jingxi still did not want to implicate Old Man Ji, "That's right, the Imperial Consort Shen in the palace is probably not too good, I just don't know if His Majesty will help grandfather because of this."
"I won't." Gu Yun encircled her tightly, "Imperial Consort Shen does not have that qualification, you don't have to worry, I will take care of everything, just don't enter the palace anymore in the next few days."
"Alright, I understand." Xie Jingxi turned around and also hugged him, "I won't ask about the matters regarding the Second Branch anymore. I don't want to go anymore, and I won't meet him in private either.
Gu Yun's eyes were moved, he raised his hand to pick up her chin, and lowered his head to kiss his. His kiss was filled with longing and pity, such a considerate and clever wife, how could he let his go?
