Chapter 708
After King Yue had washed up, he changed into the clothes that Mu Yunyao had prepared and returned to his room to hug her in satisfaction before lightly sighing.
Mu Yunyao felt a little helpless. She relaxed her body and leaned on the Duke of Yue's chest,
"Fourth Master, what's going on?
"
"Yao'er, just the two of us will be together for the rest of our lives, okay?
"
Mu Yunyao was slightly stunned, then smiled with her eyes wide open,
"I'm afraid not.
"
"Yao'er, believe me, I won't have any other women.
" Today, he went to pay his respects in place of Ning Junjin. He clearly knew that everything was an act, but it still made him feel like he had swallowed a bug. His heart was small, so pretending to be Mu Yunyao was enough.
There was no room for other people to step in.
Mu Yunyao's smile became even wider,
"It's not that I don't trust Fourth Master.
"
"Then why don't you agree?
"
Mu Yunyao pulled King Yue's hand and placed it on her abdomen,
"In the future, I will be pregnant with Fourth Master's child. It can be a girl or a boy, do you think Fourth Master doesn't want our child anymore?
"
Yue Yang was startled, his finger covering Mu Yunyao's warm abdomen. When he thought about the children of him and Yao'er that would be born here, even his nervous fingertips couldn't help but tremble:
"Yao`er, could it be that you … You already have one?
"
Mu Yunyao couldn't stop herself from laughing,
"Where did Fourth Master go? How could he be so fast?
" It had only been half a month since the country's funeral. During the period of mourning, she and King Yue had not gotten close, so even if they were pregnant, it would be impossible for them to notice it so quickly. An unspeakable disappointment arose in King Yue's heart as he reached out his hand to encircle Mu Yunyao. Using his chin to rub her hair, he said,
"Yao`er, I want a child.
" He grew up in the cold palace and lost his mother. He did not experience the feeling of being doted on and doted on by his parents. He wanted a child so that he would once owe himself …
All that was missing was compensated to him.
Mu Yunyao could not help but feel pain in her heart when she sensed the overcast aura that was emitted from King Yue's body.
"Alright, then I'll give birth to a child for Fourth Master.
"
Yue Yang's heart thumped, a surge of happiness mixed with honey gushed out, making him feel somewhat at a loss:
"Then what name should we give our child?
"
"As the Fourth Master is the child's father, you will naturally be the one to name him.
" Then … Then let me go through some ancient books and some small clothes … And the cot. There are also the wet nurse, the maid, the wet nurse, the errand boy, the guards, and the dark guard …
" The more he thought about it, the more flustered he became. Yao'er was about to give birth to his child …
Yes, but he had nothing.
"Yao'er, are you going to give birth to a boy or a girl?
"
If so, isn't our manor too small?
"What should I do if he wants to hunt horses? I'll get someone to bring a pony here from the west of Cantonese, then I'll go find my royal brother and ask him to give me the order to expand the manor and set up two stables …
"
Mu Yunyao couldn't stop herself from laughing. It was the first time she had seen the Wang's helpless appearance.
"Fourth Master, there's no need to be anxious. I'm not pregnant yet, am I?
" It will be too late to prepare for it when you are pregnant.
" Duke Yue looked at Mu Yunyao very seriously,
"Yao`er, what do you want to eat now?
"You need to take good care of your body, so that when you give birth to your child, everything will go smoothly …
" At this point, he suddenly stopped talking. A trace of fear seemed to flash across his face …
Seeing his expression, Mu Yunyao immediately understood that he must have thought of the previous empress. This was probably a knot that he couldn't resolve in his heart, and now that there was no point in opening it, he simply changed the topic,
"Fourth Master, you and the emperor have pretty much finished with your performance. Now it's all up to me and the empress.
"Eunuch Cheng purposefully neglected to send the news out and soon enough, Tu Ao can confirm that I'm pregnant.
"
As long as Tu Ma was not stupid, he would definitely do something to her. Rather than waiting passively to deal with his schemes, it would be better to take the initiative to leave an opening and guide him in his own way.
Therefore, when she found out that Tu Ma had bribed an informant in the mansion and that someone had already been tempted, she acted as if she was pregnant. Furthermore, she was pregnant during the period of mourning, which was a very disrespectful crime.
In order to prevent their reputation from being tarnished, these clans didn't dare to make any noise even after they were pregnant. They just directly swallowed a bowl of concocting medicine and did everything that needed to be done in silence. However, if she was pregnant and she was dragged in front of the emperor, then this matter would definitely be difficult to resolve.
"Yao'er, I've wronged you.
" Even if he was just acting, Yao'er wouldn't be able to live a good life these past few days.
"It doesn't matter if we feel wronged, but in the past two days, many good things have been destroyed in our house. Lord Fourth must remind Eunuch Cheng to remember them carefully. Once the northern border has been pacified, the Emperor will give us compensation.
"
"Alright.
"
After she ate a few times and retched with disgust, the spies in the manor couldn't help but send the news out when Eunuch Cheng was
"not paying attention
".
After reading the contents of the letter, Tu Ao could not help but laugh out loud. His eyes were full of pride,
"It seems that the heavens are helping us in the northern border.
"
Not long after, a piece of news suddenly spread throughout the capital.
It had already been more than two months since King Yue and Princess Fei Yue were unfilial. They were pregnant during the state funeral, and now …
The moment this news came out, it immediately caused a flurry of discussion within the capital.
Very quickly, a censor delivered Yue Yang's report to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, being pregnant during your filial years is a great disrespect to the previous Emperor. I request that Your Majesty severely punish King Yue and Princess Sha Wangfei, and set an example for everyone in the world.
"
It wasn't like there were no precedents for this kind of thing. It was just that many people had done it secretly, so they could just turn a blind eye to it. But now that the matter of Yuwai Wangfei being pregnant had suddenly become known by everyone, this wasn't easy to deal with.
The emperor's expression was cold.
"It's just some rumors that aren't true. Fourth brother should still have his limits.
"
"Your majesty, although it's only rumors, we should still investigate clearly. If it's false, it's purposefully damaging the reputations of King Yue and Princess Yue. If we want to investigate the source, we'll severely punish those who spread it. But if it's true …
" then we should deal with them seriously and protect the dignity of the imperial family.
"
The emperor, however, didn't agree.
"Since it's just rumors, let's just ignore it. It will naturally pass after a while.
"
After King Yue stayed in the palace for more than two hours, there were even sounds of intense arguments coming from the imperial study. When he left, the rage surrounding him seemed to be real, causing people to shudder in fear. After that, Mu Yunyao was brought into Qin Fang Yuan by Grand Princess Fide. In name, it was the Grand Princess who missed her granddaughter, and in addition, she was not feeling well, so she stayed with Mu Yunyao for a few more days. However, a perceptive person could guess that those rumors were true.
