The silver moonlight from Xinuang Pavilion shone into the room. There was no lamp in the room. I stood at the door and looked at him through the dim light. He stood in front of the window, looking up at the crescent moon.
I took a deep breath, walked over and lit the palace lantern, signaled Gao Wuyong outside the room to come in, put the food on the table, and waited for everyone to finish their work and leave. I covered the door, walked to him, and stood beside him quietly.
.
After a while, a gust of wind blew, bringing with it a bit of coolness. I sneezed uncontrollably. He sighed inaudibly, closed the window, put his arm around my shoulders, turned around, walked to the table and said, "Drink."
Some hot soup to warm you up."
I served him a bowl of porridge and put it in front of him. He shook his head and said, "Ruoxi, I have no appetite. You eat some first and I will eat later." I put down the bowl and said with a smile: "Look at you like this.
How can I swallow it if I'm tormenting myself. This is the cinnamon pork liver porridge I specially made. You look pale these days. Eating this can replenish your qi and nourish your blood. Eat more or less. Otherwise, how can you have the energy to deal with government affairs.
"
He sighed softly and said calmly: "I'll use some with you." Seeing him pick up the bowl, but he didn't take a bite for a long time, I felt so sad in my heart. Tears fell silently, dripping into the bowl drop by drop, and I bit down.
Lips, trying hard not to say anything. After all, Sixty is not his biological child, and I can't feel the pain. But as a mother, I know clearly what losing a child means to parents. Although he was extremely sad,
But he endured it.
Maybe he noticed something strange about me, so he lifted my head. When he saw the tears on my face clearly, he frowned and gently pulled me into his arms: "Ruoxi, can you go to Kunning Palace to comfort the queen?"
, I'm very happy. You are worried about me, I know in my heart, but I feel really uncomfortable."
The tears were still out of my control. I closed my eyes to prevent them from rolling down. At this moment, how could I shed tears in front of him? I should let him get out of his sadness as soon as possible, so I gently
Wiping his face, he smiled slightly and said, "As long as you can cheer up, everything I do will be worth it."
He raised my face and stared at it for a long time. I looked back at him with a slight smile still on my face. After a while, he sighed softly and took me into his arms again. The two hugged each other quietly for a while.
He suddenly said: "I am the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. For the people of the Qing Dynasty, I will cheer up and make my country of the Qing Dynasty last forever."
I put my head on his shoulder and nodded gently.
Open the window, the cool breeze blows in your face, it is really refreshing and pleasant.
The door was gently pushed open, and Ju Xiang walked in gently with a basin in her hand. After putting the basin away, she twisted the handkerchief and walked to my side: "Your Majesty, please wash up."
I took a deep breath of the air outside, then turned around and took the handkerchief and asked, "Brother, are you awake?"
She smiled and said, "Not yet. I heard from Aunt Qiaohui that I will probably sleep for a while longer."
When I woke up this morning, Yinzhen was in much better spirits, and I was relieved of my worries. At this moment, he went to court, and Hongchao hadn't woken up yet, so he just had a moment of leisure to breathe in the morning breeze.
Air.
I quickly washed up, then sat in front of the mirror, lightly combed my hair into a simple style, then got up and walked out.
Ju Xiang, who was standing in front of the door, was dumbfounded. After hesitating for a long time, she finally said: "Mother, if you go out like this, you are losing your status and will cause gossip."
I didn't stop walking and chuckled: "Brother, if you wake up, go to the Imperial Garden to find me."
I walked slowly on the path. The wind was cool, blowing a little chill on my body. The wind was mixed with the fragrance of grass and trees, and there was also a faint fruity fragrance, flowing slowly in the morning air.
With.
The light gradually brightened, and the sky looked particularly blue and high. Looking up at it, I seemed to melt into the blue. I let out a heavy breath, sweeping away the pent-up energy in my heart these days, and I felt relaxed.
Come down. "Mother." Suddenly a timid cry came from behind me, and I turned around in confusion.
He looked familiar, but for a moment I couldn't figure out who he was. Seeing the confused look on my face, Xu struck up his sleeves, knelt down and said, "This slave is Cuizhu's younger brother." I suddenly realized it, and thought of it in my heart.
I remember the little eunuch who begged me to save Cuizhu in the snow.
Asking him to get up, he bowed and stood on the spot, lowered his eyes and whispered softly: "I have been waiting for your Majesty for several days, but I have never had a chance to talk to your Majesty." I suddenly thought of the incense in Changchun Garden.
After returning to the Old Summer Palace, Sixty fell into the water and forgot to see what was inside.
Maybe I remained silent, so he looked at me furtively, and when he saw me looking at him, he was startled, and hurriedly lowered his head and said, "A man named Li Fu outside the palace asked his servant to take the message." After saying that, he hurriedly turned to himself.
He took out a note from his arms and handed it to me with both hands. I took it and unfolded it, and a line of words came into view:
"The old slave has run out of oil. If the girl still thinks of the prince's affection, please leave the palace and meet the old slave quickly. Li Fuliu from the jade shop in Xiyuan." I thought about it for a while, but I didn't have any clue.
At that time, he had talked with Shisan about Hongwang. He was far away in Rehe and under the care of Shisan, although he was not as comfortable as Prince Baylor in the capital, he still lived a comfortable and comfortable life. At this time, Li Fu asked to see him. What happened?
Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?
After thinking for a while, I raised my head and asked him: "Who sent you the message?" His body trembled slightly and he rubbed his hands back and forth: "In reply to you, I don't know the person who sent the message, and I don't know Li Fu either.
Who is it? It’s just that the messenger held my mother’s hairpin in his hand and said that it was my mother who asked someone to deliver the message. The servant also asked him why he knew my mother, but he said that he was the same as my mother.
I don’t know each other, I just received some money from my mother and that’s why I spread the word.”
Cuizhu's words were true, he indeed didn't know anything. I looked at him and sighed in my heart: "Please step back, and don't do this kind of thing again from now on." He responded hurriedly, and then trotted away.
There was a trance in my heart, and I stood there blankly. After a while, I suddenly came back to my senses, only to find that the red sun was already high in the sky. I sighed secretly, lowered my eyes and thought quietly for a while, and felt that I had to leave the palace no matter what.
Having made up his mind, he walked back.
Before he stepped into the room, he heard Honghan's laughter. He stood in front of the door and let out a long breath. After he calmed down, he walked into the room.
I saw Honghan wrapped in a thin quilt, and Yinzhen was sitting by the bed, holding a gold-plated pocket watch and dazzling it in front of Honghan's eyes. Honghan was nearly one year old, and his hands and feet were already extremely flexible. At this time, he could already use both hands and feet.
He kicked off the thin quilt, raised his little arms like lotus roots high, and looked at Yinzhen with a "Hmm" in his mouth. With a smile on his face, Yinzhen said softly: "Call Huang Ama, and I will give it to you."
"I stood at the door, a warm current surged out of my heart, and he finally let go.
"Miss, don't let me catch a cold." I don't know when Qiaohui stood behind me. Without turning my head, I waved my hand for her to leave. When there was no movement behind me, I walked to the bed and said, "He's still there."
If you are less than one year old, how can you call her Ama?"
Sitting opposite him, I picked up the clothes on the bed, picked up Honghan, and prepared to dress him. The big guy probably couldn't get the pocket watch, but as soon as I picked him up, he grinned as if he was about to cry, and pointed at Yin with his little finger.
Zhen: "Ah..., I want..." Yinzhen was startled, then looked at me and smiled: "Our son will be called Ama." I nodded and said with a smile: "In two months
, the scream will be better."
A smile escaped from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes stared at me softly. The two of them looked at each other in silence for a while. The little guy in his arms struggled to move his body. He shook his head and chuckled, and then handed the pocket watch in his hand.
I asked Honghan. I sighed softly: "You are too spoiled to give him such a precious thing to play with. A spoiled child is like killing a child. Sooner or later, he will be spoiled."
There was still a smile on his lips: "Just for the past few years, when he gets older, he needs to learn martial arts and practice literature. If he can't recognize the words he needs to recognize and the postures he needs to learn, then he can be punished as he wants.
No one can protect you from punishment."
As soon as he finished speaking, Honghan raised the pocket watch in his hand and threw it out. With a 'pop' sound, the watch fell to the ground, and the glass surface immediately shattered into pieces. I looked at him and smiled and said, "My son protested.
"He looked at me for a while, put away his smile, stared at me and said calmly: "After breakfast, I want to go to Kunning Palace."
I looked away, lowered my eyes, and glanced at the ring on my finger. Suddenly, I felt a surge of bitterness in my heart: "Go, she needs you to tell her personally that you didn't blame her, and then the knot in her heart will be untied.
Only then will your body get better." He came over, stood beside me, reached out and stroked the broken hair beside my ears: "Only you understand my thoughts best." I leaned against him gently, letting him
Spontaneously caressing my neck.
Wiping the corners of Honghan's mouth, he told Ju Xiang who was standing aside: "Tell Qiaohui that the weather is dry these days. Feed my brother some ice grain and white fungus soup in an hour. Remember to break the white fungus." Ju agreed.
After getting off, he hugged Honghan and walked out of the room.
After walking around the room twice, my heart was still in a mess and I couldn't calm down.
"Your Majesty, I would like to see you, servant Xiao Luzi." The voice of Xiao Luzi, the eunuch of Kunning Palace, came from outside the door. I was a little startled because Yinzhen had not been gone for long, so he probably hadn't arrived at Kunning Palace yet.
He bowed down the path and said, "The Queen ordered me to invite the Queen to Kunning Palace." I was surprised and asked with a smile, "But what's the matter?" He raised his head and said with a smile, "Today, Prince Yi,
Prince Guo's followers came to the palace to visit the Queen. The Queen knew that her queen and Prince Yi's followers had always been very close, so she ordered her servants to come over and invite the Queen to talk." So that's what happened. I smiled and said, "Go back.
Just tell your master and I will come over right away." After he responded, he hurried out.
When I walked into Kunning Palace, I saw Lan Dong standing at the foot of the steps. When she saw me, she took two steps forward and bowed to me. I nodded. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she failed.
She didn't say anything, I stared at her in silence for a moment, then stepped up the steps and walked into the room.
Nala was half lying on the soft couch comfortably, and Yinzhen was sitting on the side of the couch looking at her. I took a quick look, but found that there was no one else except the two of them and the maids. So I stopped.
He stopped walking, felt a little embarrassed, felt a little sad, and for a moment, he didn't know how to speak.
He hesitated in his heart for a while, turned around slightly, and was about to walk out, but just as he turned around, he heard: "Queen, the ladies have arrived." Suddenly he understood in his heart why Lan Dong was like this, he smiled bitterly in his heart, and turned around slowly
.
Nala's slightly pale face was slightly red. He turned to look at me, and then looked at Yinzhen with a slightly worried look. Yinzhen stared at me with a trace of love in his eyes. I glanced at him and looked away.
, with a smile on his lips, he took two steps forward, lowered his body and gave a salute. Nala stood up and said: "Sister, there is no need to salute." Then, he ordered the maid behind him: "Prepare seats for the ladies."
When Concubine Xi, Concubine Yu and others came in and greeted each other, I slowly sat down, stared at Nala and asked with a smile: "Is sister's health better?" Nala smiled calmly: "She feels lighter.
After a while, I can get out of bed." I bit my lip lightly and still smiled and said, "Then I'll feel relieved."
Concubine Xi, who was sitting next to her, said with a smile: "Doctors and patients also have to talk about fate when seeing a doctor and taking medicine. It seems that the imperial physician who treated my sister this time is quite skilled in medicine."
She listened quietly with her eyes lowered, knowing in her heart that his eyes would stop on her from time to time, but she didn't want to look up at him.
I suddenly felt that everything I had done these days was redundant. He fell into the water at sixty. No matter what the reason was, history was destined that he would die this year. Nala was sick, and even if he didn't come to comfort her, nothing would happen to her.
.All these things, one after another, happened along the track of history. I can't stop anything, and I can't change anything. Why don't I live in my own small yard and guard my thoughts?
A person who is careful can live the life he wants. Isn't this what he has always expected?
I was in a daze, and I don't know how long it took. I came back to my senses and heard Yinzhen's faint voice: "...I have already lost a son. I don't want to lose another virtuous queen. I want to be more open-minded and take good care of my body.
." Nala was probably moved in her heart, and choked with sobs: "I have failed the emperor's trust, and I can't help sister Nian." Everyone booed and sighed for a while, and Nala said again: "I am here for the emperor.
It will hold up.”
Yinzhen was silent for a while, stood up, looked around everyone, his eyes stopped on me for a moment, and then said calmly: "I still have some issues that I haven't dealt with. Let's talk about it." Nala straightened up and Yinzhen patted her.
On his shoulder, he said: "You just need to lie down, there is no need to get up and salute."
Watching Yinzhen go out, everyone started chatting. I listened silently, feeling a little dazed in my mind. This was just the beginning, followed closely by Thirteen, Nala... Almost every year, there would be one by his side.
The important person left him...
"Auntie, Cheng Huan misses you so much." When I heard Cheng Huan's voice ringing in my ears, I suddenly came back to my senses and put away my wandering thoughts. Only then did I realize that Shi San and Yun Li's blessings had already arrived.
After everyone bowed to each other, the Fujins sat down. I smiled at Lu Wu opposite me and nodded gently. Lu Wu smiled faintly. I looked away and smiled at Cheng Huan who was standing next to me and scolded: "Yue.
Dai Viet has no rules and doesn't even know how to behave properly." Chenghuan's eyes turned red and he whispered: "Chenghuan is afraid that saying the wrong thing will make the Queen even more sad."
I was slightly startled in my heart, but also a little happy at the same time. I looked at her silently. This child has really grown up. She already knows how to weigh the importance of speaking. I just don't know what she has experienced in the past few days back home. She seems to have grown up.
Like many.
I held her hand and said seriously: "Just say what you want to say from the bottom of your heart." Cheng Huan hesitated for a moment, then walked to the soft couch, bowed obediently, and stood next to the couch.
Shi smiled and patted his side and said: "Chenghuan, sit down.
Cheng Huan sat next to Nala's legs and cast his eyes on me. I nodded to her. She hesitated for a moment, then leaned forward and hugged Nala, her voice choked with sobs: "Don't be sad, brother Fuhui is not you.
Your biological son is no different from your biological son. He has been with you for several years. You are very sad when he leaves. Just like Aunt Ruoxi and I, I am also very sad when she leaves. But I am sad to leave.
Sad, if you cheer up, there will definitely be another blessing to accompany you, just like Cheng Huan, now you have Aunt Xiaowen."
After a pause, Cheng Huan continued in a low voice, "Actually, brother Fuhui also misses his biological mother, so none of us should feel sorry for him. He just misses her and wants to spend time with her.
Now, he must be very happy in his heart."
I was startled and looked at Lu Wu opposite me. Lu Wu was biting her lower lip, hiding her hands in her sleeves, but her arms were stiffly stretched. Zhaojia beside her smiled and patted her arm.
Wu smiled bitterly and stared at the ground silently.
Nala was silent for a while, then patted Chenghuan on the back: "What a sensible child." Zhaojia smiled and said: "Thank you for the compliment. This is not all the credit of the queens. Chenghuan has lived in the palace for many years.
He rarely returns home. If it weren't for the good discipline of the ladies, how could this child be so sensible?"
Nala straightened up and said with a smile: "I have always liked this child." Then she changed the topic and asked
