Chapter 57 Lu's Pregnancy
Imperial Palace Study Room
"Your Majesty, Jie Li Khan has been captured." Gao De reported in a low voice.
"Oh." Li Shiming raised his head from the complicated memorials, soothed his tired nerves, and said with a smile, "Is Li Jin working so hard this time? He caught him in just a few days?"
"Okay, then have someone send it to Chang'an!"
"I heard that the Eastern Turks are good at singing and dancing, so I guess Jie Li is also an expert!"
"It's just right. The soldiers have been busy running around for him for so long. It's time for them to relax."
"Then... let Jie Li perform a good dance at the banquet, so that my soldiers can enjoy it!"
Gao De lowered his head. Hearing the emperor's teasing words, he knew that the emperor was in a bad mood again. Knowing that the emperor was in a good mood at the moment, he also said, "Your Majesty is wise, but this time, the one who captured Jie Li was someone else!"
"Oh?" Li Shiming raised his eyes in surprise, glanced at Gao De and said, "Tell me, who could have kidnapped someone right under the nose of our Datong God of War?"
"Your Majesty, it's a minor county magistrate in Feiyun County named Shen Minghui, who graduated from... Yunshen Academy!"
Yunshen Academy?
Shen Minghui?
Li Shiming frowned. How could a talent from Yunshen Academy end up in a small place like Feiyun County? What happened here that he didn't know about?
"Somebody come!"
"..." A black shadow flashed by, and in the next moment a figure knelt on the ground.
"Go and check what happened to Shen Minghui!" After saying this, Li Shiming waved his hand, and the room soon returned to silence.
Only when everyone in the room left tactfully did Li Shiming reveal an unpleasant expression.
Family!
Family!
These noble families!
hateful!
Do you all think I am dead?
Sooner or later, one day, I will...

The next morning, the sun shone through the gauze-like clouds and onto Lin Yuxi's cottage.
Lin Yuxi woke up early and stretched herself, as if to dispel all the fatigue in her body. She opened the window, and the fresh air with a hint of coolness gently brushed across her face, making her feel refreshed.
After washing up, Lin Yuxi changed into a clean set of clothes and prepared to pay her respects to Mrs. Lu. If you want to improve a woman's status, you still have to start with money.
Women have had no power since ancient times, and it all comes down to lack of money!
How many women with their palms facing upwards are in a high position?
You still need to ask your mother about the situation at home before you can consider where to start.
"My daughter greets her mother!"
"Get up." Mrs. Lu looked at her dignified and beautiful daughter and nodded. She smiled and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"
"Thank you for your concern, mother. My daughter slept well." Lin Yuxi replied with a smile.
"That's good." Mrs. Lu nodded. "Why did you come so early today?" When Lin Yuxi came over, Mrs. Lu was still dressing up, so she smiled and joked.
"Mom, I have something to discuss with you." Lin Yuxi walked to Lu with a smile and helped her tidy up her hair.
"What's the matter? Just tell me." Mrs. Lu was very pleased that her daughter would now consult her whenever she had something to do.
"Mom, does our family have a shop? My daughter wants to practice her skills!" Lin Yuxi asked bluntly.
"Shop?" Mrs. Lu looked at Lin Yuxi in surprise. "We only have a few study rooms in our house, and an embroidery workshop that came with my dowry, but it's all managed by the housekeeper. Why did you suddenly think of managing the shop?"
Lin Yuxi smiled and said, "Mom, my daughter has grown up now. I can't just stay at home and do nothing. Besides, I also want to share some of the burden at home."
After hearing this, Mrs. Lu was very pleased. She nodded and said, "Since you have this intention, then mother will hand over the embroidery workshop to you."
Mrs. Lu touched her daughter's head lovingly and said, "It was originally intended to be your dowry. Since you're here to ask for it now, I'll give it to you in advance!"
Lin Yuxi felt the motherly love of Lu and was moved. She hugged her mother affectionately and said in a soft voice, "Thank you, mother!"
She asked Lu about some basic information about the embroidery workshop, and then excitedly expressed her desire to go and take a look.
Seeing her daughter so excited, Mrs. Lu did not refuse. She was just about to take her daughter out for a walk when her husband Lin Wen Zhang came over with a doctor.
"Master, what are you doing...?"
"Madam, you are not feeling well. I have specially found a doctor to see you." Lin Wenjian looked at Lu gently.
Lin Wen Zhang discovered yesterday that Mrs. Lu's temper was a little off, so he immediately asked the servants about it. He learned that Mrs. Lu had been drowsy at home these days, her temper was a little out of control, and she was sentimental. He felt a little worried, so he called a doctor early this morning.
Lu's face turned slightly red, and she said awkwardly: "Actually, I'm fine, maybe I'm just too tired recently."
Mrs. Lu also felt that her temper had been flaring up recently, and she felt quite embarrassed that her husband had noticed it.
Seeing this, Lin Yuxi hurriedly said, "Mom, you can't ignore your physical fatigue. Since my dad has invited a doctor for you, then you should let the doctor take your pulse, so that my dad can rest assured."
Mrs. Lu looked at her husband and daughter in front of her, smiled and nodded, then sat on a chair beside her with the help of her daughter.
Lin Wenzhang looked at his sensible daughter and nodded. Sometimes, his daughter is more useful than his son.
The doctor carefully took Lu's pulse, then looked at Lin Wenzhang and Lin Yuxi with a warm smile on his face.
"Congratulations, sir, congratulations, miss, your wife is pregnant." The doctor's words stunned Lin Wenzhang and Lin Yuxi, and then they burst into joyful laughter.
Lin Wenzhang walked quickly to Lu's side, his face full of surprise: "Madam, you...you are pregnant?"
Looking at the expressions of her husband and daughter, Lu also showed a happy smile on her face. Although she did feel something was wrong recently, she did not expect such good news.
"Yes, Master, we are going to have another baby!" Mrs. Lu lowered her head a little embarrassedly. She was about to become a grandmother, and being pregnant at this time was really... too... too shameful!
Lin Wen Zhang excitedly held Lu's hand: "Hahaha, Madam, that's great! We're going to have a baby again!" Lin Wen Zhang was happy for a while, then thought of Lu's recent changes and her age, "It's just... you've worked so hard."
I should consult the doctor in private. My wife is already over 30 years old and she is pregnant at such an old age. If something happens...
Lin Wenzhang's heart tightened, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore. If it really didn't work... this child... just don't want it! Anyway, he already has a son and a daughter, so he has nothing to regret in this life!
