Chapter 173 Want to bite
Early morning, Bai Mansion.
"The Yang family gift has arrived!"
"The gifts from the Li family have arrived!" The voice of Chen Yi, the butler of the Bai Mansion, resounded throughout the Bai Mansion. Gifts from various mansions in the capital were delivered to the door in an endless stream.
All the gifts were for Tang Wanru's pregnancy.
"Let me tell you, today's wives are not like ours back then. Nowadays, they are all pampered. Besides, your Ru'er is from a general's mansion and has been precious since she was a child. So you have to be more careful when she gets pregnant."
After all, Yang Lingling was pregnant first. Chen Tang's mother, Liu, knew more about it. At this moment, she was sitting in the front hall holding Shang's hand and admonishing her, "The first few months are the most important, and you must not neglect them. I brought some supplements for your Ru'er, and you must find someone who can take care of her properly."
"Okay, I see. Thank you." Shang agreed and saw Liu off.
Gifts from various families are still arriving in an endless stream.
Shang had a headache.
She had guessed that Tang Wanru had been eating a lot these days, but because it was still early, she didn't want to put pressure on her so she didn't tell her. However, she didn't expect that when Tang Wanru went to the Wu Mansion, the doctor would actually see through it at a glance.
Now everyone in the capital knows about it.
The Bai family has extensive connections in the capital, and although the matter is not a big deal, so many gifts have come after all.
That’s all.
It was said that Doctor Xu, the official physician of the Wu residence, was not only a good doctor, but also had good luck. All pregnant women in the capital who had his pulse checked had their babies born safely.
Thinking of this, Shang felt relieved.
Just as she was thinking about it, Shang turned around and looked into the yard, and saw Bai Yanli walking in the yard holding Tang Wanru's hand.
The sun shone on the courtyard of the Bai Mansion, making the flowers in the garden shine brightly.
The two walked slowly, Tang Wanru's soft little hand was held in Bai Yanli's big hand. She asked, "Did you know about this a long time ago?"
"What's the matter?" Bai Yanli was so focused on feeling the smooth touch of her hands that he didn't react to what she said.
"About my pregnancy."
Hearing this, Bai Yanli smiled slightly.
Tang Wanru narrowed her eyes and said, "No wonder you always feed me. You buy me all the famous cakes in the capital in different ways. It turns out that you knew about this a long time ago."
Hearing her say this, Bai Yanli hurriedly defended himself: "Ru'er, I am innocent. I bought you those cakes because you wanted to eat them. It has nothing to do with whether you are pregnant or not. If you want to eat them, I will buy them for you in different ways even if you are not pregnant."
That's true. Tang Wanru accepted his explanation.
"The reason why my mother has been cooking for me in different ways these days is because of this incident."
"Yes. She is an experienced person, so she should have seen it." Bai Yanli replied, "Because it is still early, I didn't tell you in order not to put pressure on you. In fact, my father and mother have been recruiting people and have been secretly preparing for this matter."
hiring?
Tang Wanru suddenly remembered that when she was at Wu Mansion, Tang Yueer asked her why the mansion was so heavily guarded.
She understood now. It turned out that she had sent someone away but didn't send him in.
Tang Wanru didn't say anything else. In fact, it was time to tell everyone about her pregnancy.
Both families knew the truth.
It would be hypocritical to keep it a secret any longer.
As she was thinking, she suddenly felt her feet were empty and her body was lifted into the air by Bai Yanli.
Tang Wanru was startled: "What is my husband going to do?"
Bai Yanli stared at the delicate face of the person in his arms and her skin glowing in the sun.
Very strange.
How come his wife's skin looks better during pregnancy? It's just like a peeled egg, making people want to take a bite.
Well, one bite is not enough, you need many bites.
Thinking of this, he smiled softly, leaned close to her ear and said, "Let's talk inside."
After that, he carried her into the room without saying anything else.
Tang Wanru: ...
Shang, who was busy accepting gifts, didn't even notice that Bai Yanli had already carried Tang Wanru back to the room. She thought to herself, these two people just came out not long ago, why did they go in again? She quickly put down the things in her hands and quickly followed.
Seeing that the two people's doors were closed again, Shang hurried forward to knock on the door.
But he was grabbed by Bai Ge.
"Madam, where are you going?" She looked so sneaky that Bai Ge almost laughed at her stealthy and anxious look.
"I..." Shang saw that there was no one around and pulled Bai Ge aside and said, "The two of them didn't walk around for long before they went back in."
Bai Ge knew that his wife was always worrying about things. At first, she was worried that she didn't follow the rites of Zhou Gong, but now she is worried that she follows them too much. He is really speechless.
Seeing Bai Ge helpless, Shang explained: "I don't mean anything else. It's natural for two people to have a good relationship. The main reason is that the baby in your belly is too young..."
In case of accident...
"Madam, please relax." Bai Ge was helpless. He advised, "You know that the child is young? Doesn't your son know? Don't you know your limits?"
Bai Yanli took every step carefully and controlled the capital of Zhou Dynasty just right.
Who can match that sense of proportion?
Is it necessary for her to worry about this? Bai Ge held Shang's hand and said, "You, don't let your imagination run wild. I'll go to the kitchen with you to make a bowl of soup for Wanru." After saying that, he smiled and pushed Shang away.
Shang had no choice but to put his heart at ease.

Yongning Marquis Mansion, study.
In the darkness, Crown Prince Zhou Huangquan sat in Zhou Wucai's study, muttering to himself coldly: "What a great King Wei! I really underestimated him before. I didn't expect that he has won the favor of my father!"
Zhou Huangquan knew that the King of Wei had ambitions through the death of Liu Qin and the incident in the General's Mansion.
But I never expected it.
He actually won the heart of Emperor Zhou.
You have to know that Emperor Zhou was a very suspicious and cunning person. Even though I had been the crown prince for so many years, I still dared not say that I had won the heart of Emperor Zhou.
Zhou Zhuoqi is a young boy.
How could he?
Zhou Ziyue stood beside Zhou Huangquan and said, "Maybe when the emperor granted Bai Yanli a marriage, he already liked the King of Wei very much, otherwise he wouldn't grant a marriage to a businessman for no reason!"
Zhou Ziyue felt that if it weren’t for the King of Wei, Bai Yanli would not have been able to get the marriage grant.
Ah.
Zhou Huangquan suddenly couldn't help laughing.
He licked his lips and thought, this King Wei is so powerful!
Secretly attack Chencang?
"Your Highness." Zhou Ziyue asked tentatively, "Now that the Emperor has made it clear that you are not allowed to touch the King of Wei, what should we do now?"
How to do?
Zhou Huangquan thought that if he had listened to the emperor, he would have died eight hundred times already, and he would never have reached the point where he was competing with him now.
He doesn’t allow people to touch the King of Wei?
Is he going to wait for himself to be killed by the King of Wei and then watch him take the throne?
Don't even think about it!
Zhou Huangquan gritted his teeth and decided that the King of Wei must be killed!
"Find another opportunity to kill the King of Wei, openly or secretly!" Zhou Huangquan ordered.
Find another chance?
Zhou Ziyue hesitated and said, "Your Highness, the King of Wei does not engage in business or politics, and no one in the court can tell who is his man. He is only interested in romance, and it is really..." It is not easy to find.
"Romance is romance!" He didn't expect that before he finished speaking, Zhou Huangquan had already set the tone for him, "Since he likes it, let him die in it!"
