Xie Nandu bent down to pick up the food, stuffed it into Zhu Xia's arms again, and took out a small steamed bun and stuffed it into Zhu Xia's mouth.
"It's really something remarkable."
Xie Nandu made some comments and then came to the lakeside with a bag of food. Wei Xu was still here, standing here all the time and not moving at all.
As the current host of this small world, he is actually very strenuous. It is not as easy as it seems on the surface.
Xie Nandu handed over a bag of food, looked at the fine beads of sweat on Wei Xu's forehead, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, senior brother."
Wei Xu took it and smiled and said, "Sir, if something happens, I will do my best. This is something that can't be helped."
"Can senior brother survive ten days?"
Xie Nandu was a little curious.
Wei Xu smiled and said, "How can it be so difficult? The size of this small world is only equivalent to a county. Not to mention ten days, even a hundred days, it doesn't matter."
Xie Nandu hummed. Although she had read a lot of books, there were indeed many things she didn't know.
Wei Xu saw that Xie Nandu had no idea to speak again after asking this question, so he thought about it and smiled and said, "Junior sister, you want to know what's going on inside now?"
Xie Nandu shook his head and said, "No."
This moment made Wei Xu curious, and he asked, "Aren't junior sisters worried about that young man?"
Xie Nandu still shook his head and said, "Since he said he wanted to win the first place, then I believe he will win the first place."
Wei Xu asked, "Even if such a thing is difficult."
Xie Nandu said, "Before I took the literary test, who could believe that I could win the first prize?"
Wei Xu said seriously, "I have always believed in my junior sister."
Xie Nandu smiled and said nothing.
But soon, she frowned and turned to look at the lake.
There was a figure standing over there, looking at her.
Xie Nandu was silent for a moment, then walked towards the man.
"Eunuch Li."
Xie Nandu opened his mouth.
Li Heng glanced at Xie Nandu and said softly, "The Queen please invite Miss Xie into the palace."
Xie Nandu glanced at Li Heng and asked, "Now?"
Li Heng nodded.
Xie Nandu Diandian
He said, "Father-in-law, please wait a moment. I will go back to the academy to tidy up my makeup."
Li Heng, who had always been very talkative in the past, shook his head when he heard this and said softly, "Girl, come with me quickly, the Queen cannot wait any longer."
When he said this, there was some sadness in his eyes.
Xie Nandu was startled and looked at Li Heng in disbelief.
Li Heng nodded slightly and was already telling her the answer.
Xie Nandu frowned.
…
…
In the imperial city, it was very quiet at the moment.
The people in the palace did not dare to make a sound, and the servants were even more frightened.
In the past few days, everyone has felt the mood of His Majesty the Emperor, so no one is willing to do anything wrong at this time, let alone make His Majesty the Emperor angry.
Li Heng led Xie Nandu across the palace wall, this time his pace was much faster.
There's something hurried about it.
The entire imperial city knew that time was running out.
Xie Nandu didn't say anything. When she saw the queen in those days, she could see that her face was not very good-looking and her body was not in good shape. However, she never thought that how much time had passed and that the queen was now
My dear, you have already reached this point.
This is not as simple as lingering on the sick bed, but it is more serious than this.
Listening to Li Heng's words, the Queen's condition may have reached a critical stage now.
Thinking about this, Xie Nandu had a headache and was a little sad. Now a big thing like Wanliu Club is happening. People's eyes are on it. But who knows that in this imperial city, there will be something bigger.
Things are happening.
Stepping into the palace, Xie Nandu saw a tall figure walking past her. She subconsciously wanted to salute, but she only heard a voice, "Hurry in."
That was His Majesty the Emperor of Daliang speaking. He quickly left the palace, but he would definitely not be far away.
Xie Nandu walked in.
Those noisy talismans have long been removed,
Now this palace looks very cold, just like some places.
She came to the queen's bed and took a look.
Then I felt a little sad.
The Queen in front of her was already very haggard and looked like a dying old man.
Xie Nandu called softly, "Empress."
After a long time, the Queen slowly opened her eyes and looked at Xie Nandu in front of her.
Her eyes were very cloudy at the moment, but her kindness remained the same, and she looked like a tolerant and kind elder.
Xie Nandu came to the bed and squatted down, looking at her like this.
This is only the second time the two have met.
The Queen looked at her and said with some effort, "Have you eaten?"
Xie Nandu nodded.
"It's a bit difficult for you to enter the palace now. How is the martial arts test now? How is the child?"
The Queen spoke very slowly, almost taking a break after every word. This was really difficult.
Xie Nandu said softly, "Madam, he is now at the top of the list, but it hasn't been long since he started."
The Empress said with some relief, "It doesn't matter if you're not at the top of the list, as long as you can come back safely."
Xie Nandu nodded and said nothing.
The Queen smiled and said, "You may be a little curious as to why I summon you to the palace at this time."
Xie Nandu looked at the Queen and said, "Listen to the Queen's teachings."
The queen said, "You are very beautiful, just like my sister."
When she spoke, it was very laborious, but she still seemed very indifferent. Xie Nandu thought silently, it seems that the Queen Empress has only one sister, and she is currently practicing in a nunnery outside the capital of the gods.
The queen knew what she was thinking, and shook her head and said, "It's not that one, it's another one. Not many people know about it. That's the illegitimate daughter my father brought back from outside. It's disgraceful. My mother will never recognize her for the rest of her life. She
She has never been close to our family, but she talks to me more and really treats me like a sister."
The Queen is the daughter of the Northern General. With such a family background, the General has a private life outside.
The birth of a daughter is naturally disgraceful, not to mention that the Queen was going to marry the prince, who is now His Majesty the Emperor. Naturally, such a thing cannot be known to outsiders.
Things like face are even more so when it comes to the royal family.
Xie Nandu didn't know what to say. Even if the Queen wanted to say such a secret, she shouldn't have told it to her. But now that the Queen has spoken, there must be a reason.
"That girl had a miserable life outside. After the second mother died, no one could take care of her anymore, so her father had to bring her back to the house. She looked at me timidly that day, and I knew this girl
In fact, it was very good. Later, no matter how much people in the house disliked her, I often went to play with her and took her to eat delicious food. Although she was not born by my mother, she was still my sister, and I also wanted to do it.
It’s the eldest sister’s responsibility.”
"Your Majesty is naturally a kind person."
Xie Nandu asked softly, "Where is this lady now?"
After hearing this, the Queen was silent for a moment, shook her head, and said softly, "She has passed away. The first half of her life was extremely miserable. The second half of her life would have been easier because she married well. Although she was a concubine,
That family is a wealthy one, so how can she be treated badly? She just has to be bullied by some of the main wives."
Xie Nandu remained silent.
"If this is the case, I can live a peaceful life, but who knows, one day I will encounter a disaster, my husband will die early, and the son of the wife will inherit the family business, so she will become pregnant, and then give birth to a child.
Sons who are orphans and widowed will naturally be bullied. How can such a life be said to be comfortable? "
The Queen Empress sighed with emotion, "When I found out about this, when I came to Shendu, I wanted to take her back and take good care of her, but she was too stubborn."
Xie Nandu asked softly, "Empress?"
The Queen nodded, smiled and said, "It's the same as what you thought."
Xie Nandu was silent for a while, not knowing what to say.
The Empress said softly, "None of them knew it, but I knew it was him after just one look at him."
Xie Nandu felt the jade bracelet on his wrist and suddenly didn't know what to say.
