The tyrant family read my heart and doted on me.

"I'm afraid I'll disappoint Lord Xie, girl." Jiujiushou said.

"Princess, didn't you lie to me?" Xie Youxian was somewhat resistant to this result and shook his head, unwilling to believe it.

"Why would I lie to you?" Jiujiu puffed up her cheeks speechlessly, looking somewhat delicate and cute.

"Then I understand."

After Xie Youxian finished speaking, he glanced at his wife beside him with disappointment, shook his sleeves unhappily, and walked away, no longer caring about Mrs. Xie, who was already pregnant and had already taken her last month.

He was even thinking about having another child after this one.

If he couldn't have another son, he would take in more concubines, no matter if they were legitimate or illegitimate, no matter if he was willing or not, no matter if it was against the integrity of a gentleman, he had to do this and he had to have a son.

Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Youxian's receding back with tears in her eyes. She wanted to call him to stop, but she didn't say a word. She was alone, holding her waist with one hand and stroking her belly with the other, and continued to move forward with difficulty.

Jiujiu glanced at the maid behind her, and the maid hurried forward to support Madam Xie.

【It’s a good thing I didn’t marry Xie Youxian. 】

[Otherwise, I would be the one who was forced to keep giving birth to children, and who was still despised after giving birth to a girl.]

[It's just a pity for Madam Xie. ]

【Pregnant one baby after another.】

[They all look a little older than their peers. ]

[I’m afraid she won’t give up until she has a son. 】

When Jiujiu thought of this, she didn't want to help Xie Youxian, but she sympathized with Madam Xie and pitied Madam Xie. She asked someone to go back to her bedroom, get a prescription, and give it to Madam Xie.

As long as Mrs. Xie follows the prescription to take good care of her body, and her body and mood are in good shape, the next baby will definitely be a boy.

When Mrs. Xie received the prescription, she was so excited that she couldn't help crying. She was really afraid of giving birth to a child. She thought she would have to give birth in pain, tolerate her husband's cold eyes, and accept the fact that her husband would take a concubine in the future and her position as the principal wife might be lost.

Now, with this prescription, she can have at most one more baby and then stop.

Her position would also be consolidated by giving birth to a legitimate son.

Great.

Madam Xie wanted to thank Jiujiu, but the banquet had already begun. Emperor Qing'an was speaking, and the Queen was raising her glass to drink with everyone. She couldn't leave the table for the time being, so she could only sit quietly and wait for the banquet to be over.

The New Year’s Eve banquet is extremely grand.

Singing and dancing, the sounds of stringed instruments and orchestras are pleasant to the ears.

Everyone forgot their worries for a while and laughed, drank and chatted happily.

Chuyang has also arrived, coming to give Jiujiu a New Year gift on behalf of Dijiang.

Dijiang has resumed his court duties, and it is New Year's Eve. There will be another war after the New Year, and there are many things to deal with. He really cannot leave recently, so Chuyang can only go on this trip.

Jiujiu received a big red envelope, a jade ruyi and a sachet.

The jade ruyi represents Emperor Jiang's blessing, wishing Jiujiu all the best in the new year.

The sachet is a way to express longing, especially with a few red beans inside, which makes the longing even stronger.

When Jiujiu opened the sachet and saw the red beans, she muttered, "Jiujiu also misses Brother Dijiang."

"miss so much."

Chu Yang heard Jiujiu's whispers and said, "Princess, His Majesty will be very happy if he hears what you said."

Jiujiu was a little embarrassed when someone heard her mumbling, "Okay, stop flattering me, sit down and enjoy the song and dance together!"

"Jinkui, take Chuyang to sit down."

Jin Kui took Chu Yang and sat down.

As soon as Chu Yang sat down, he looked at Jin Kui with a smile and asked Jin Kui carefully: "Miss Jin Kui, do you have a crush on someone?"

The last time Chu Yang liked Yan Mingda, it ended in a very unpleasant situation. Chu Yang didn't dare to like anyone randomly anymore. He only dared to like people he knew well. He had seen this Jin Kui often and was sure that she was a real girl. Although she was not particularly stunning in appearance, she was pretty. It would be good if he could marry her.

However, when Jin Kui heard Chu Yang's words, she stepped on Chu Yang's foot and said, "Don't try to take advantage of me."

"I don't want you, no matter whether I have a crush on you or not."

"Even rabbits don't eat grass near their nests."

Chu Yang's heart, liver, spleen and lungs were all in pain from the kick, and his face turned grim.

Aaaah, how come she is so strong?

He looked skinny and fragile, but it turned out to be all fake.

Chu Yang suddenly felt a little afraid of Jin Kui. What if she beat him after he married her? He didn't want to beat a woman, so he could only be beaten.

Forget about this golden sunflower!

He asked others.

He saw another palace maid coming over from behind. She was dressed in green and had a nice figure. He looked over quickly and saw Nanny Gui with half-white hair.

"..."

Hehehe.

What luck he has.

If I had known, I would have looked at the person’s face and figure first. Now I’ve been slapped in the face!

Nanny Gui thought Chu Yang was looking at her because he had something to say, so she approached Chu Yang and asked, "Guard Chu Yang, do you have anything to say to me?"

"...No." Chu Yang said bitterly.

"Then I'll get you some more wine." Aunt Gui said, holding the wine pot. "The princess asked me to come here, saying that I must get you a glass of wine."

"Thank you, Princess." Chu Yang handed the wine glass over and let Nanny Gui add more wine.

He drank the full glass of wine.

Jiujiu was gnawing on chicken feet when Feng Wenjin and his father came over. It seemed that the father and son were quarreling again. Both of them had dark faces and were full of resentment. On the opposite side, Xiao Jingwen looked at them worriedly.

Jiujiu glanced at Feng Wenjin and said, "Jin'er, what's wrong with you?"

Feng Wenjin didn't say anything, but looked at the thing in Jiujiu's hand with a hooked gaze.

Jiujiu glanced at the chicken feet in her hand, then reluctantly handed the plate of chicken feet in front of her to Feng Wenjin, "Jin'er, you eat."

Feng Wenjin took two chicken feet without hesitation, one in each hand, and said while eating: "Aunt, you don't know that my father won't let me go to the battlefield."

"On the battlefield?"

"Well, didn't Dong Cang get a new ruler recently? It is said that the new ruler despises Dong Buhan's ways and is unwilling to get along with Xi Chu and Nan Guo. He is ready to attack us."

"I just want to go to the battlefield and make achievements, but my father won't let me. He also said that I should stay at home with my mother. What kind of life is this? I don't want it."

"A good man should fight on the battlefield."

Feng Wenjin said this as he drank a glass of wine heartily, intending to prove to Jiujiu that he was a man.

Jiujiu understood what her elder brother meant. Her elder brother and sister-in-law only had Jin'er as their only son. How could they bear to let him go to the battlefield?

Jiujiu thought for a moment, took out a prescription, and handed it to his elder brother, "Brother, this prescription is newly prepared by me. Take it back and take it with my sister-in-law."

"What prescription?" Feng Tianmo was puzzled.
