Chapter 431 Mo Li's Strategy
Mo Li said, "Old man, why does it sound so awkward to me?"
Du Xiaoyue smiled and said, "Old man."
Mo Li said, "Third Aunt, Xiumei is about to give birth, you have to quickly find a... a midwife, right?"
Tao Sangu said, "Midwife, I am the best midwife."
Mo Li's face was full of distrust as he asked, "You?"
Aunt Tao said, "Yes, I've given birth to more than a dozen babies. It takes experience and skill. No other midwife can compare to me."
Xiumei drank a mouthful of soup and said, "Third Aunt, I remember you said before that you gave birth to four or five children."
Du Xiaoyue said: "You don't know, later she said she had seven or eight children."
"Yes, they said they gave birth to more than ten babies today." Xiumei stirred the chicken soup in the bowl with a spoon.
Du Xiaoyue said, "Third Aunt, you're almost catching up with the sow in our backyard."
Mo Li laughed out loud upon hearing this.
……
Emperor Gai Zhang, the Empress Dowager, and He Shen were walking on the bridge, followed by palace maids and eunuchs.
He Shen said, "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. In the evening, I will accompany the Empress Dowager to appreciate the moon."
Emperor Gai Zhang said to the Queen Mother: "I wish you a happy festival."
The Empress Dowager said, "During this Mid-Autumn Festival, when both the moon and the people are in the sky, doesn't the Emperor miss Xiumei?"
Emperor Gai Zhang said: "The world is so vast, I don't know where people are."
The Queen Mother said, "This Xiumei is so stubborn, just like me when I was young."
As the three of them were walking, they ran into Mo Li.
Mo Li knelt down and saluted, saying, "Your Highness Mo Li pays homage to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor. May the Empress Dowager receive good fortune."
The three of them stopped, and the eunuchs and palace maids behind them also stopped.
Emperor Gai Zhang asked Mo Li to stand up.
Mo Li said, "Your Majesty, I have just heard that Ji Xiaolan told me that the Complete Library of the Four Treasures has been completed. On behalf of Ji Xiaolan, I respectfully invite Your Majesty to review it."
Emperor Gai Zhang said: "Well, it's very good, let's go and take a look."
The Queen Mother said, "Go." and watched the two of them leave.
Then he murmured to himself, "After so many years, the Siku Quanshu is finally complete."
He Shen suddenly thought of something, and with a serious expression on his face, he said to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, I suspect this is a plot by Mo Li."
"Plan?" The Queen Mother was stunned.
He Shen continued, "I'm afraid Li Qiye is planning to secretly take the Emperor out of the palace."
The Queen Mother said, "You mean, the Emperor is going to see Xiumei?"
Heshen immediately nodded.
The Queen Mother continued, "Forget it, let them meet on Mid-Autumn Festival, and just pretend you don't know." After saying that, she took two steps forward.
He Shen said, "Empress Dowager, this cannot be seen."
The Queen Mother stopped, turned around, and said, "You are even more hard-hearted than I am."
Heshen said, "I deserve to die, I deserve to die. But I ask the Empress Dowager to think carefully. Xiumei has been missing for several months. If she comes back at this time, she must be about to give birth." He walked to the Empress Dowager and supported her.
The Queen Mother hummed and said, "It's almost time."
He Shen said, "Yes, then Mo Li didn't come earlier or later, but chose to take the emperor out of the palace at this time. I'm afraid it's not just to meet Xiumei."
The Queen Mother asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
He Shen said: "You see, Xiumei is about to give birth, and the child cannot be aborted at this time, so the child is destined to be born."
The Queen Mother gasped.
He Shen continued, "How can the emperor remain calm after seeing his own child?"
