The clouds are clear and the red sun leaps out leisurely.
Walking on the bluestone road in the early morning, breathing in the fresh air, I felt a little lighter. I didn't know if the fetus was too big. It was only six months old and the belly was already surprisingly big. I had to keep exercising and pray secretly in my heart.
, but there must be no such thing as "umbilical cord wrapped around the neck". There is no cesarean section here.
Listening to the footsteps behind me, I turned around and looked, and it turned out to be Qiaohui and Shisan.
Thirteen couldn't hide the tired look on his face and said, "What's the important thing for asking Qiaohui to come specifically to find me?" Just as he was about to speak, he noticed a hint of anxiety in his eyes. He hesitated for a moment and suppressed the question in his heart.
"What happened?" Thirteen sighed: "When the Russian envoy came in March, we had roughly negotiated the terms, but something happened during the field survey of the border, and the two sides could not reach an agreement.
, we don’t have a complete border map, so we can’t make a decision in court. The most annoying thing is that the two ministers we sent have different opinions. Without eyes and ears, how can we make the next deployment.”
This is related to the country's territory and is indeed a major event. I asked casually: "Who are the ministers sent?" Thirteen said: "It's Hubitu and Longkodo. Longkodo thought that the west belongs to Beilebobe.
Wuliang Sea borders Russia's Wuliang Sea. It is not clear how long it stretches. If you don't go to see it in person, and don't ask Bobei, it is really difficult to have a meeting with Russia." But Hubitu thinks that "the Wuliang Sea is a newly designated area.
The place located in the Ergun River Bend is easy to negotiate. Because the original delimiter misunderstood the Ergun River as flowing from east to west, it belongs to Russia. It requested to focus on surveying the eastern border. Later, due to the distance
relationship, we decided to survey the western border first."
Mongolia in the 21st century no longer belongs to China, and I don’t know the names of those places. After listening to them again, I have no idea in my mind.
I said: "Didn't Longkodo get demoted?"
A smile flashed across Thirteen's face and he said: "He is familiar with Russian affairs, and this is also an opportunity for him." I smiled and chinned slightly, and he asked again: "Why do you want to see me?"
Since he was busy with court affairs, he believed that what he was asking was unclear, so he smiled sweetly and said: "I just wanted to find someone to accompany me and talk. I didn't expect you to be so busy." He glanced at me doubtfully.
, said: "That's true." I smiled and nodded: "Of course it is." Thirteen smiled and said loudly: "Brother Huang just went to court and has already gone back. If you want to find someone to talk to, you should talk to Brother Huang. I am
I'm sorry, I talked all night last night and I'm very sleepy." After saying that, he turned around and walked back.
After taking two steps, he turned back, stared at me and said: "We haven't found out anything about the purse yet. There are many young eunuchs in the palace, and your description is not very detailed. I will keep checking. If I have any information, I will give it to you."
You said, don't worry too much."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away again, saying as he walked: "I'm really leaving this time." I said 'hmm', and he quickened his pace and disappeared in an instant.
Things in the world are unpredictable. Before I spoke to Yinzhen again, Hongshi had already died of depression.
When the news came, Yinzhen suddenly became much older, but his face did not look sad. The more he looked like this, the more worried I was. Although the rules in the palace were much better, once this matter came out, everyone in the palace knew it.
Although there was no big discussion, rumors spread secretly, and the incident of the current emperor forcing his own son to death was spread like crazy. Until even the gentle and gentle queen couldn't bear it anymore, and she killed two gossiping maids in Kunning Palace with a cane, and ordered
If he goes down and appears again, he will be beaten to death without asking the reason.
As a result, everyone's discussion shifted from this matter to Nala's killing of the palace maid with a stick. As day by day passed, the discussion gradually faded away.
Since Hongshi's death, Yinzhen almost stayed up all night, and even went to the Yangxin Hall day and night to review memorials for several days. I felt uncomfortable in my heart, but I had no other choice, so I became more and more considerate of him.
.
Lying on the bed, staring at the tent ceiling, the man next to me sighed inaudibly. My heart ached, so I turned over his body, stared into his eyes and said, "Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty used the charge of occupying the ancestral temple to order the cruel official Zhi.
They all killed Liu Rong, who was once the prince, just to clear the way for Liu Che to succeed. Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty shot his brother at Xuanwu Gate and ascended the throne. Aren't they good emperors? Didn't they have merit for a long time?
?Didn’t they benefit the people? They are still good monarchs in the hearts of the people. People in the world can see that it is not a small righteousness but a great righteousness. For the death of the third elder brother, you may think that you did not treat him in time and blame yourself, but heart disease can really
Can he be cured? He may have long since lost the desire to live. He may be doing this to atone for what he has done. You don’t have to worry about it. It’s a bit unreasonable to say this, but your body
It is related to the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, and you should be able to tell which one is more important and which one is less important."
His eyes were still dim and lifeless, and his face was still uncontrollably sad. I picked up his head, hugged him to me, and stroked his back. He said in a hoarse voice, "Ruoxi, how am I feeling at this moment?"
Just like the mood Huang Ama had when he told me what he said before leaving." I was so shocked that I didn't expect that one knot in my heart before had turned into two at this time.
I held his face and kissed him on the lips, but he didn't respond at all. His whole body was stiff and tense. I used my tongue to pry open his lips and explored his mouth. After a long time, just when I was about to give up.
, he hugged me, almost violently, then slowly turned to gentleness and started to kiss me back.
My heart relaxed and my sorrow disappeared.
The sun was shining so brightly that it was so bright that people couldn't keep their eyes open. Qiao Hui was dismissed by me, leaning on the back of the chair alone, feeling a little drowsy.
The courtyard door was pushed open with a bang, and I was stunned, who could be so rough?
Hongshi Fujin's eyes were red and swollen, and he gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Even if you are pregnant with a dragon seed, you are still a despicable thing, and you are so arrogant about everything, and you don't even know what kind of virtue you are."
Her voice was sharp and mean, and she rushed to me in a few steps. I felt uncomfortable in my heart, so I stood up and said, "Please forgive me. I didn't have time to tell the emperor, but I didn't expect that the third elder brother had passed away."
She snorted loudly, looked at me, with a look of disgust on her face and still said with hatred: "The letter I left for me said that you have a good heart and will not hold grudges. After he leaves, if I have any difficulties, my mother will
When I can't speak, let me look for you. Not only was I blind, but I was stupid enough to believe it... For so many days, you actually said that there was no chance. Did you have no chance to say it, or did you not want to say it at all?
Is it for the piece of meat in your belly?"
I opened my mouth a few times, but I didn't know what to say, so I closed my mouth and let her say whatever she wanted.
Seeing that I was silent, a weird smile appeared on her face, she stared at me and said: "I heard something from Master Zeng, and I thought the Emperor would be very interested. I have never had the chance to tell others, but now
Speaking of it, Miss Xiaowen also asked Miss Xiaowen to read the details. Four years ago, she heard that the maid serving tea in front of the palace disappeared for no reason, but for some unknown reason, she hid in the eighth emperor's uncle's villa for a month. I heard that the eighth emperor's uncle and
The Fourteenth Emperor's Uncle also visited the other gardens at night, and the Fourteenth Emperor's Uncle even stayed here at night."
I was slightly angry in my heart and sneered: "Why did that palace maid disappear for no reason? The emperor already knows who did it."
She raised her head slightly and chuckled. After laughing, she said: "This palace maid is really not simple. She even blocked a knife for Emperor Ama. Everyone thought it was the Eighth Emperor's uncle who ordered it and the Nine Emperors' Uncle sent someone to do it. In fact, it was not the case.
, even though the emperor knew it, the two emperor uncles were still ordered to commit suicide. As far as I know, the emperor's anger turned into beauty."
Staring at her, silently thinking about her words, she knew too clearly that her mind turned around, her head banged, she took two steps back, and asked in a trembling voice: "It was the third elder brother who did it, and the target was actually the emperor.
She looked a little crazy and twisted as she laughed and said, "Yes, it's us. But that's what he deserves. I'm the eldest son, but he favors the fourth child overtly and covertly. Of course we don't accept it."
All the pity in my heart disappeared, and I said coldly: "They were not given to commit suicide. I brought the medicine there. They are seeking relief. They have nothing to do with the emperor, and there is no such thing as anger. As for the others,
, Who the Emperor appoints as the Crown Prince is the Emperor’s consideration and decision, and it’s useless if anyone disagrees.”
She had a ferocious look on her face, and she walked towards me slowly. I was secretly frightened, and took a few steps back. I suddenly remembered that there was no one in the room, so I slowly turned around and retreated towards the courtyard door. She was still taking one step at a time.
Immediately afterwards, he suddenly drew a knife from his sleeve and stabbed me quickly in the abdomen.
The distance between the two was too close, and I couldn't dodge. I subconsciously protected my abdomen with both hands and shouted sternly: "No." My whole body fell straight backwards, with only the name "Lan Qi" flashing in my mind.
‘Pa’, the sound of the knife falling to the ground.
‘Ah’, Hongshi Fujin’s scream.
"Thirteenth brother, take her down." It was his voice.
My body fell softly into someone's arms. My body trembled slightly and my lips trembled, but I couldn't say a word. I looked up at his face and burst into tears.
He picked me up, but I still couldn't recover, so I just let him carry me into the room.
The imperial doctor prescribed medicine to calm my nerves and calm down my shock, but after Qiaohui was ready, I didn't dare to take it. I had remembered that modern pregnant women are not allowed to take medicine indiscriminately. Yinzhen had no choice but to give me orders not to let me out of the courtyard because of my stubbornness.
I was very worried about the outcome of this matter. I didn't know how Yinzhen would deal with Hongshi's Fujin. But I couldn't hear any news while staying in the yard. I wanted to ask the people around me, but I still haven't finished speaking.
They bowed and left, so I had to calm down and recuperate.
That day, I was lying on the bed flipping through a book, and Qiaohui was sitting by the bed sewing clothes. I glanced at her and said with a helpless smile: "If the child born is not brother but Princess, what is the use of making these clothes?"
?”
Qiaohui sewed the last stitch, cut off the thread, picked it up, looked at it for a while, and replied with a smile: "Look at the shape of your belly and the way you walk, you must be an elder brother, I won't look at it."
Wrong." I shook my head, smiled, and said no more.
"..., I am taking a rest,... I have ordered that no one should disturb me." There were noisy arguments outside the courtyard.
After listening silently for a while, she put down the book in her hand and was about to get out of bed. Qiaohui quickly put down the clothes in her hands, pressed me on the bed, got up, went over to close the door, and said: "Eunuch Gao has ordered that if something happens again, there will be no one around you."
The waiting ladies and eunuchs are all accompanying the young brother. When the young brother is gone, everyone in the courtyard will have to follow him. I am old, so it doesn’t matter if I live less for a few days, but Juxiang and the others are in their prime, and so will you.
You have to think about them." He sighed softly and leaned on the soft cushions.
"Slave dog, I'm here to take a look at Xiaowen. How dare you come to push me?" I was startled when I heard Concubine Qi's voice outside the courtyard. I got up and got out of bed hurriedly. Qiao Hui wanted to speak again, but my face turned cold and she swallowed it.
If you want to say something, follow me out of the room.
Opening the courtyard door, more than a dozen young eunuchs headed by Xiao Shunzi knelt on the ground. The person in front of them was the angry concubine Qi. Hearing the sound of the door opening, Xiao Shunzi turned around and looked over.
The concubine raised her head and looked over. Xiao Shunzi's mouth was slightly open, and his eyes were full of fear. Concubine Qi's eyes were complicated, half-joyful, half-angry, and mixed with a hint of hatred.
As soon as I stepped out of the courtyard, Qiao Hui behind me whispered worriedly: "Miss." Xiao Shunzi, who was kneeling in front of him, stood up abruptly and hurried to the front, saying: "Mr. Gao treats his slaves as such, unless there is an order from the emperor."
, Otherwise, no one is allowed to enter the yard."
She glanced at Concubine Qi's hidden anger that she tried hard to suppress but couldn't. She was determined not to go out, but this matter should be settled, and Concubine Qi had to know what Hongshi had done, but she knew it in her heart.
Concubine Qi is a very emotional woman. It is really unpredictable what will happen when she is angry, so it is more appropriate to treat her personally.
I smiled bitterly and said to Xiao Shunzi: "Nothing will happen, just come along." Xiao Shunzi exchanged glances with the guard standing at the door, and then followed him.
The three of them walked into the alley leading to Cining Garden. A gust of wind blew through the hall, which was refreshing and cool. It was very comfortable. The anger and sadness on her face were gone, leaving only a sad look. She stopped and stood face to face with me.
Staring into my eyes, he said, "Qingnuo's temper is a little fierce, but she is also overly sad. If something happens to her again, there will be only one orphan in our house." It turns out that Hongshi Fujin's name is Qing.
Nuo, a very gentle name, but such a strong personality.
She sighed secretly and was about to speak. Her eyes were blurred and she stared at the top of the palace wall. She said softly: "Back then, when Honghui died young, the emperor was extremely sad. He happened to be four months old and the emperor came to hug him almost every day.
Son, the only son of his mother's compatriots did not have this blessing, those days..."
I was shocked. Hong Shi and Hong Yun were both born to her at that time, which shows that Yinzhen was also very fond of her at that time. I lowered my head slightly and smiled sadly, and she suddenly snorted coldly.
I was stunned for a moment, raised my head, and saw that she had disappeared, her face was desolate, and she said with a slight anger: "We are both princes, but we have two kinds of treatment. Hongli is good at everything, but Shi'er is bad at everything."
Wrong, I don't like the emperor. Why, is it because of the special care of my thirteenth brother or Miss Xiaowen's pillow style."
I could still understand her meaning, but Shi San’s special care, I really don’t know where she started talking about it. Seeing the confused look on my face, she smiled coldly and said, “Who doesn’t know that Cheng Huan is Shi San?
The third brother has a sharp heart, but Gege has been close to Hongli since he was a child. If the thirteenth brother hadn't explained it, how would the kid's family know this? As for the girl, you are from the thirteenth brother's house, but after entering the palace, you still dare to be with Hongli.
We are so close." He suddenly understood in his heart that what he had done unconsciously was seen as deliberate in their eyes.
Shaking his head slightly, he turned around and waved his hand to drive away Xiao Shunzi. He looked embarrassed and stood there hesitating. Concubine Qi sneered and mocked: "You dog slave, if you don't retreat, I won't eat Miss Xiaowen."
."
Xiao Shunzi's head suddenly dropped, but he still stood there with his knees bent. I sighed secretly and said to Xiao Shunzi: "Go down." Xiao Shunzi walked away quickly, stopped, and looked this way.
.
I secretly thought that at this distance, he would not hear anything. Seeing me like this, she wanted to speak again, but I quickly stopped her and said, "Did you know that last year, the emperor's chariot was attacked by an assassin on its way back to the garden?
The messenger is the third elder brother."
In an instant, her face turned as white as paper, her body trembled slightly, and she said with a trembling voice in disbelief: "Impossible, Shi'er has a bad temper. I know that, but he won't do that. That's his Amma, he won't
I will..." The last trace of calmness on her face disappeared, and she was sluggish and lost her mind as she said, "Has the Emperor found out?" Her reaction didn't look like she was pretending, she really didn't know about it.
I said in a calm voice: "Don't mention these things again. You should inform Qingnuo and don't say these words that can destroy the nine tribes in the future." Before she could recover, she murmured softly: "What kind of face do I have?
If they ask for help, they deserve to die."
Although she had harsh words in the past, she had never done anything serious after all. Her heart softened and she blurted out: "Nothing will happen to Qingnuo. The emperor will take care of the child even if he doesn't care about her." She was startled and looked at me.
For a moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "Sister, thank you for helping Qingnuo regardless of the past grudges. Although the time has passed, the sins of these two children are too deep. From now on, even if I am accompanying the ancient Buddha with a green lantern, it will be difficult for me to cleanse myself.
"After saying that, he turned around and walked back with faltering steps.
