According to the decree, the clan girl who had already made a marriage contract with Xiao Jingyue died suddenly suddenly, so the queen mother pointed out another marriage to Xiao Jingyue, and the one who was pointed out to Xiao Jingyue was Yan Ningshuang, the eldest daughter of the Yan family.

This decree is on the surface, and it is done for the world to see. Secretly, the Empress Dowager also issued a secret decree to the Yanbei Palace. The content of this secret decree was not very polite. The Empress Dowager expressed 120,000 points of indignation at Xiao Jingyue's daring to moles the daughter of the Yan family, and severely criticized the Yanbei King Talk to the concubine and blame them for not restraining the children of the Xiao family, but for allowing this kind of thing to happen in the Yanbei palace.

The Empress Dowager stated in her will that pointing Yan Ningshuang to Xiao Jingyue was really helpless, and she and the Yan family were also reluctant. It's just that things have come to this point and there is no other way but to let Yan Ningshuang marry Xiao Jingyue. After all, Yan Ningshuang's identity is still somewhat special. The atmosphere of the capital and the south of the Yangtze River is not as open as that of Yanbei. A man like Yan Ningshuang took advantage of her and let so many people bump into her. There is no way to find a good husband's family in the future.

In the end, the Queen Mother stated in the secret decree that Yan Ningshuang was wronged by marrying into the Xiao family like this. She hoped that the Yanbei Palace would treat her grandniece well, otherwise she and the Yan family would not let it go.

And Yan Ningshuang will be escorted back to Yanbei again soon to marry Xiao Jingyue.

Xiao Jingyue himself just sneered after receiving this decree, he didn't take it seriously at all who his first wife was, and it didn't matter whether it was Yan Ningshuang or someone from the Zhao family. Xiao Jingyue's father, Xiao Heng, gave him a hard lesson and almost broke the family law, but was finally dissuaded by Su Shi.

In the blink of an eye, it was August, and this period of time was calm and busy for Ren Yaoqi.

The ladies from the capital have all honestly stayed in the other courtyard of the Yanbei Prince’s Mansion since they were accused of getting married. Maybe they knew that they were not popular among the many families in Yanbei, so they even stayed in the other courtyard for a while. The door is not going out, so naturally no one can go out.

Ren Yaoqi's wedding is in September, so she rarely goes out since the Qianjin Banquet. Although there are not many things that need to be done by herself, there are still many things that require her to participate or make decisions in person. She always feels that Obviously busy every day and seems to have done nothing, but it just passed.

On this day, Ren Yaoqi was in her room trying on the wedding dresses and dresses sent to her by the princess. Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jingxi's wedding dresses were custom-made by Yanbei Prince's Mansion, stacked layer by layer looked very cumbersome and heavy, and her tiara was also much heavier than that worn by ordinary brides.

Although it's not midsummer now, Yanbei is still very hot these days, Ren Yaoqi just tried the second set, and a thick layer of sweat beads appeared on her face. However, she never complained that she was tired, nor did she say she wanted to rest. In the end, it was Xin Nai sent by the princess who said, "Miss Ren, why don't you take a rest and try again? There are still two sets of dresses, and it's still early. It's okay if we go home later."

Ren Yaoqi nodded when she heard the words, and asked the maids to help her take off the tiara on her head, and said with a smile: "I don't usually put an ice basin in my room, so I want you to accompany me here to warm up. Why don't you guys go to the front flower hall to rest for a while, and I'll ask someone to prepare some iced sour plum soup."

Mother Xin hurriedly said: "Look at what you said, why can't the servants bear the heat? The hottest time of the year has passed. What's more, the servants are here today to serve you at the order of the princess. You have a good rest, and we will continue after we have rested." Xin Nanny refused to go to the flower hall to rest, and she was relieved only after seeing that Ren Yaoqi had tried all the gowns and there were no problems.

Ren Yaoqi stopped persuading her, and only asked people to bring the chilled sour plum soup to Nurse Xin and the others to quench their thirst.

Ren Yaoqi was drinking tea while chatting with Madam Xin without saying a word, when she suddenly heard someone making noise outside. The movement is not small.

Ren Yaoqi took a look at Pingguo, and Pingguo immediately backed out, but she came back after a while and hurriedly reported in front of everyone: "Miss, the Lei family sent someone here! Missy is about to give birth , Eldest Uncle is worried about letting someone come and pick up his wife."

Upon hearing this, Ren Yaoqi immediately put down the teacup in her hand, with a look of joy and worry on her face: "Sister is going to give birth? Didn't she say it would take a few days before? Where are the Lei family?"

Apple said: "It's Xiangqin, she's in the wife's room right now, and the wife is about to go out to Lei's house."

Ren Yaoqi stood up when she heard the words, she glanced at Nanny Xin and was about to say something, Nanny Xin smiled with understanding: "Yo, it's a big deal for Miss Ren to give birth, miss, why don't you go and see her first?" Seeing the people from the Lei family? These wedding dresses have already been made anyway, even if they need to be modified, it won’t take long, it’s the same whether you try it today or tomorrow, or the servants should go back to the house first.”

Ren Yaoqi nodded apologetically, and sent Nanny Xin and the others from Yanbei Palace out.

As soon as they went out, they heard the bustle and bustle in the yard. Everyone was smiling, and even the usually calm Nanny Zhou stood under the porch and ordered a few maids to prepare things.

When Nanny Xin saw this scene, she couldn't help laughing. This is the case with families who are grandmothers or grandmothers for the first time. Ren Yaohua has children all her life, and Li's seniority is also higher.

However, before Madam Xin left, she still told Ren Yaoqi: "Miss, you won't be of much help if you can't enter the delivery room. It's better to stay at home today and listen to the good news."

Although Ren Yaoqi didn't get married today, but the wedding date is approaching, some wealthy families are very particular about these rules. If Ren Yaoqi went to Lei's house recklessly, not only would it be bad for the child, but she would also be hit. Mother Xin was afraid that Li Shi was still young, and Ren Yaoqi would not understand these taboos, so she made a special point.

Ren Yaoqi nodded and said, "I see, Mama. I'm not going to Lei's house, I'm going to ask my sister's maid."

Only then did Madam Xin take the person away with confidence.

Ren Yaoqi was about to go to Li's room, but she saw that she had hurried out of her room immediately, and Xiangqin was walking behind Li while explaining Ren Yaohua's situation. Mrs. Li must have wanted to go to Ren Yaohua's place in a hurry, so she only changed one of the clothes she used to go out and was about to leave.

Ren Yaoqi rushed up to greet her, and asked, "Why is it today? I remember the last time Granny Wen read it and said it would be a few days."

Mrs. Li hurried out with someone and said, "It's possible to be a few days earlier or a few days later. When I gave birth to you, it was two days earlier than expected."

It's just that after Li Shi finished speaking, Ren Yaoqi saw Xiangqin pouted behind Li Shi, and Ren Yaoqi was about to ask her something, but Xiangqin had already returned to her serious and down-to-earth appearance, but in the end she Glancing at Ren Yaoqi, those small eyes seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Seeing that she could still play tricks, Ren Yaoqi felt relieved, it shouldn't be a big deal.

Ren Yaoqi just sent Li Shi and the others out of the second door and Li Shi refused to let Ren Yaoqi follow: "Don't go, I and Zhou Nanny will go and guard."

Ren Yaoqi nodded in response: "If you have anything to do, please send someone back to talk to me."

Mrs. Li walked away while responding.

After Mrs. Li and Nanny Zhou left, Ren Yaoqi began to wait for news from Lei's family. From morning to afternoon, Mrs. Li sent someone back once, saying that there was nothing to reassure Ren Yaoqi.

But at night, Mrs. Li hadn't come back yet, and Ren Yaoqi became a little worried again. She was waiting impatiently, and when she was about to send someone to Lei's house to inquire, Xi'er, Mrs. Li's maid, came back in a hurry, probably because she ran away. The sweat on Xi'er's face caused the rouge on her face to fade away. When she saw that Ren Yaoqi was too late to salute, she said, "Miss, quickly send someone to Yanbei Palace to invite A midwife named Gong."

When Ren Yaoqi heard this, she couldn't help but "thump" in her heart, and said anxiously, "What happened over there?"

Xi'er was about to cry: "It said that the eldest lady had a dystocia, and the baby's fetal position was not correct. Miss, you go to the Yanbei Palace to ask the princess. I heard that there is a stable woman surnamed Gong in the Yanbei Palace who is very powerful. It can also be corrected. It’s just that Nanny Gong belongs to the princess, and she is too old to deliver babies to outsiders. If you ask the concubine, the concubine will definitely agree to send Nanny Gong to deliver the baby for the eldest lady. You Hurry up, or it will be too late."

Ren Yaoqi was startled, her legs were a little weak: "Why is it so late? It's so serious?"

Xi'er said: "If it's too late, I'm afraid that the child will be lost. The eldest lady is stubborn, she insists on keeping the child!"

After hearing this, Ren Yaoqi understood it. It must be that Wen Po saw that Ren Yaohua had a dystocia and asked if she wanted to protect the adult or the child. Ren Yaohua was born as a mother, so she naturally wanted the child to survive.

Ren Yaoqi didn't have time to think too much, she took Xi'er out without saying anything, and she didn't have time to have the carriage prepared again, and went directly to the Lei family's carriage to Yanbei Palace.

But before she got in the car, she sent Leshan beside her to Lei's house, and told her: "No matter what, keep the child! If my sister is still stubborn until the end, you will knock her out!"

After Le Shan received the order, he didn't even take the carriage, and ran directly to Lei's house.
