Chapter 440 What if the Fake Becomes Real?

Nan Xi and Rong Yu made a rare trip to the eldest princess's mansion. They originally planned to stay and have lunch before returning to the palace. Anyway, they had a break from court for the past two days, so they could spend some leisure time back in the palace. However, while Nan Xi was chatting with the eldest princess, the eldest wife of the Su family and the current sixth princess, the second wife of Su's consort, came to visit with their respective daughters.

Immediately afterwards, the Duke's wife, the concubine, the princesses and wives from the clan, the princesses of various families, and the wives and daughters of the powerful families came to visit one after another.

Today is the first day of the New Year, and the atmosphere is mainly lively and joyful. The rules are not so strict. There is no need to submit a greeting card in advance for temporary requests. As long as the host agrees, you can be admitted to the house and entertained.

So the princess's mansion soon became lively again.

Nan Xi was pregnant and getting heavier, and the weather was cold. She was wearing heavy clothes and was too lazy to hang out with too many people, so she and Rong Yu simply hid in the warm pavilion in the plum garden to enjoy their leisure time and admire the noble and beautiful plum blossoms blooming outside the pavilion. .

"The two ladies from the first and second bedrooms of the Su family are here together. I think the scene should be lively." Nan Xi leaned lazily in Rong Yu's arms, "Mrs. Zhen Guogong is also here... Fang Lanyi has been in poor health these past two days. She should be recovering almost well. It’s rare that this lady still has the heart to join in the fun with other ladies, so she doesn’t worry about being difficult in front of Princess Wei in the future? "

Rong Yu's eyebrows were lowered, and he especially liked the way Nan Xi was leaning against him at this moment, with a kind of quiet tranquility that lasted for many years, which was the scene he had wanted to dream about countless nights.

At this time, he felt extremely satisfied and fulfilled.

"Madams from aristocratic families must also start from the interests." He said in a low voice, "Although Fang Lanyi is a victim, in the eyes of the world, her reputation has been lost, and she cannot remarry anyone else. She can only commit herself to Xuanyuan Yan, but Xuanyuan Yan Having lost her power, Fang Lanyi has become a joke among many noble ladies."

Nan Xi sighed.

Although it sounds a bit sad, the world is indeed unfair to women. Putting aside the fact that Fang Lanyi takes the blame and brings it upon herself, it is indeed inevitable that the victim becomes a joke in many cases.

What's even more ironic is that when her daughter loses her interest value, Mrs. Zhenguo can recover from the pain and anger so quickly. For the sake of interests and her husband's future, she puts her daughter's honor and disgrace aside and can't wait to come and follow her. Friendship between the opposing eldest princess——

Zhenguo Gongfu has always been a party member of the Wei Palace, and now Fang Lanyi has become the prospective daughter-in-law of the Wei Palace. She is undoubtedly an in-law in the same boat.

The arrival of Nan Xi and Rong Yu not only damaged the interests of the Wei Palace, but also affected the future status of the Zhenguo Palace.

However, today, the Duke of Zhenguo's wife was able to take the initiative to put aside her status and show her kindness to her opponent's mother. As expected, it was exactly what people often said.

There are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies in this world.

There are only eternal benefits.

Nan Xi caressed her abdomen and said warmly, "Rong Yu."

"Um?"

"The baby will be born in less than two months." Nan Xi raised a gentle and expectant smile on her lips, "Actually, I quite hope that my first baby will be a daughter. My daughter is a caring little cotton-padded jacket that makes people warm. Heart."

Heartwarming?

In Rong Yu's mind, he pictured a little face that looked exactly like Nan Xi, with a pair of short legs wrapped around him for his mother to hug. He pursed his thin lips and said, "It's better to give birth to a boy for the first child."

It's annoying to have a daughter who can't be beaten or scolded, and has to be carefully coaxed.

"Give me a boy." Rong Yu said quickly. "After the child is born, you can teach him how to manage politics as soon as possible. In a few years, when he is well, we will have a daughter. When your son is not around, let your daughter accompany you. This way you will not It will get boring.”

Nan Xi was silent.

She found that Rong Yu was particularly obsessed with giving birth to his first son, and that he began to cultivate his son after he was born, as if it was not a whim, but a perfect and detailed plan.

However, it is they who have the final say on whether it is a boy or a girl?

Forget it, this issue has been discussed before. Nan Xi skipped it and said calmly: "Rong Yu, what do you think about the broken sleeves?"

Rong Yu was silent, "I don't have any opinion."

"Don't despise?"

"Won't."

"Then if someone under your command had such an idea, would you agree?"

Rong Yu said: "Are you talking about Xie Jin?"

Nan Xi was surprised and looked up at him: "Did you see it too?"

"There are some signs." Rong Yu agreed, "But it doesn't seem to be serious at the moment. It should be mostly joking. However, Xie Jin has always acted unscrupulously, and the level of joking has exceeded a certain limit. In order to prevent the lie from becoming true in the future. , I have warned him."

Nan Xi was silent for a moment: "It seems that it is not my mother's illusion. She said that Xie Jin's attitude was a bit weird."

Rong Yu said: "Emotionally Xuanyuan Yao is no match for him, and he cannot be tolerated."

"Xie Jin's temperament is indeed capable of doing anything." Nan Xi laughed, "Xie Shoufu dotes on his son so much that it's a bit ridiculous."

Although she said this, she actually knew that Xie Jin's temper was definitely not the result of pampering. Xie Jin's family had a big house and Xie Jin's temperament was the result of Xie Shoufu's indulgence. She guessed that he deliberately allowed him to dominate the concubines. He grew up in the conspiracy of the emperor, and thus trained him to become a successor to the powerful officials.

But training does not mean that he will suffer the consequences. After all, he only has such a precious legitimate son, so he must protect him well.

"If I had known better, I wouldn't have rewarded those young men to Xie Jin." Nan Xi sighed softly, "What if he really became a broken sleeve, would Xie Chief Fu want to kill me?"

Rong Yu frowned: "He doesn't dare."

Nan Xi laughed: "I was joking."

Rong Yu frowned slightly: "Xie Jin is a normal man. He doesn't have a habit of cutting off his sleeves. You don't have to worry."

Nan Xi hummed, but actually she really wanted to ask, if Xie Jin turns out to be in love with Xuanyuan Yao, will he stop her?

But when I said it, I felt really bored. I thought it would be impossible for this kind of thing to happen, let alone whether Rong Yu would stop it - after all, his opinion was not the most important.

However, Xie Shoufu and King Huainan would not be able to pass the test. The two fathers might directly break the legs of their two sons.

Nan Xi calmed down and felt that this was not something worth worrying about.

Snowflakes seemed to be falling outside the Nuanting Pavilion.

Nan Xi watched, stood up from Rong Yu's arms, walked to the window and opened it. A gust of cold wind mixed with moisture hit her face. Nan Xi shuddered and closed the window with a "snap".

"It's snowing." She turned to look at Rong Yu, "Does the auspicious snow herald a good harvest?"

Rong Yu walked up to her and put the cloak on her: "Want to see the snow?"

"I want to build a snowman." Nan Xi smiled, "If the snow can fall until tomorrow morning, we can let Yin Yue and Yinshuang build a snowman outside the Dazheng Palace."
