The emperor left in a hurry from the palace of the king of Qin.

Gu Tianxiang, the deputy prime minister who still lives in the Qin Palace, just returned home after finishing the matter at hand at this time, and happened to meet him.

"Long live the emperor!"

Gu Tianxiang hurriedly saluted, but the emperor ignored him, hurriedly answered, and soon disappeared.

Why are you in such a hurry?

I didn't hear that there was any major incident in the court, Gu Tianxiang went to King Qin with a confused mind.

King Qin was also embarrassed to say that his son was an emperor, and he couldn't think about this kind of children's affairs.

So in order to protect his son's face, King Qin casually said two sentences.

But when he saw Mr. Gu, he remembered something.

"When the first month comes, I will leave for Jiangnan, and when the time comes, will you and Zhaoxian still live in the Qin Palace, or will you buy two other houses?"

Hearing King Qin mention this again, Mr. Gu's mood was a little heavy, but this was another problem that had to be faced.

He thought for a moment and replied:

"Then the subordinates should buy another house, the Qin Wangfu is a hidden mansion, if the prince is not there, it is not suitable for the subordinates to live. ”

King Qin knew that what he said was also the truth, so he sighed and agreed.

When Mr. Yuan heard about this, he found King Qin:

"What kind of house do you buy, I think that when I first came to the capital with the emperor, the house I lived in was very good, and I didn't have any family to drag me down, so I still live there." ”

King Qin also agreed one by one.

In any case, these people followed him, and even if he was not the emperor, he did not want to treat them badly.

Xiao Shaotang went out, so he got on his horse and hurried to the city gate.

Or Sanxi shouted in the back:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you can't run around in this dragon robe, I took your clothes and changed them into you!"

Qing Hai, the great eunuch who had just trotted all the way behind the emperor, heard this and quickly echoed it twice.

In other words, the emperor really doesn't like to use these palace maids to serve, no, even the clothes are wrapped by the close-fitting guards.

Because of this, Qinghai is always in danger of being replaced.

Xiao Shaotang looked down at the cumbersome dragon robe on his body, and then remembered that he was angry with Bai Chenghuan, and went out of the palace directly, without having time to change his clothes.

So the master and servant went to the roadside to find a garment shop, went in and changed their clothes.

When he ran to the city gate again, he didn't walk long before he met the returning Li family and his party.

The capital of Daqi has gone through several dynasties, and under the oblique reflection of the sunset, the magnificent momentum is fully revealed.

Xiao Shaotang stood on the side of the road, but he didn't have time to look at this magnificence, his eyes were only on the woman who came on horseback.

The snow-white cloak and silver armor were supposed to be heroic and feminine, but the woman on the horse was pale, as if her soul had been sucked away.

Just this glance, the resentment, blame, and grievances that had wandered in Xiao Shaotang's heart countless times turned into nothing in an instant-

Although he doesn't know all the truth, he can also understand what it means for him to be recognized by the Weiguo Mansion family anymore!

"Huanhuan. ”

He dismounted and met hers, and stood in front of her horse.

"Xiao Shaotang ......"

The woman on horseback looked up and saw that it was him, and whispered.

It's just that there was a thick cry in his voice.

Xiao Shaotang was so distressed all of a sudden that he couldn't do anything - that's it, what to blame, what to care, what to show her with a black face, nothing can be done!

He opened his arms at her, his broad sleeves swaying in the evening breeze, and his bright eyebrows were a little brighter than the sunset on the horizon:

"Come here. ”

Bai Chenghuan, who was still with a trace of hesitation and apprehension, instantly turned over and dismounted, like a tired bird finally returning to his own mountain forest, and threw himself into his arms.

"Xiao Shaotang, Xiao Shaotang......"

From the moment he was angrily reprimanded by the Duchess of Weiguo, Bai Chenghuan, who had been holding back without shedding tears, fell on his broad and solid chest, whimpered, and shouted his name over and over again.

She thought he would be angry, angry, and maybe when she returned, what would be waiting for her was his indifferent look.

When she came out of Beishan Temple, she felt that she had nothing left.

But she didn't expect that he would still be here, waiting for her to come back.

Xiao Shaotang hugged her, feeling distressed and regretful.

Why didn't you just care about being angry and didn't accompany her on this trip?

Why did she just want to avoid what she wanted to face?

She is like a child who does everything to find tenderness, but in the end she only gets a full stomach full of sorrow, and no matter what, he can no longer be harsh on her.

Even if she is willful, even if she is stubborn, who will let him love her.

Li got out of the soft sedan chair, his eyes turned red, and he finally let go.

What if the daughter was hurt by the people of the Weiguo Mansion and turned around and had a gap with the emperor, what should she do?

Fortunately, the He family Xiaoqi, who she used to look at in every way, became her daughter's good son-in-law after all.

The imperial city in the night, silent and dark.

In the dormitory of Huaqing Palace, as in the past, there is a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

Xiao Shaotang wrapped Bai Chenghuan tightly with a quilt and hugged him in his arms, and the husband and wife squeezed on the soft couch to talk.

"Why do you want to transfer Mama Zhong and Mama Zhang? Today's matter is my willfulness, and it is not their business......

When Bai Chenghuan returned to the palace today, Mama Zhang, who was so frightened that she almost lost her soul, returned to her soul.

And Mama Zhong was calmer, and after seeing the ceremony, she seemed to want to persuade her a few words.

But before they could open their mouths, they were sent away by Xiao Shaotang, and ordered them to "cultivate for the time being".

Speaking from his heart, Bai Chenghuan felt that today's incident was because he had affected them.

Xiao Shaotang stroked her silk-like green silk and bluntly expressed his taboo against them:

"Because they are the people sent by the Weiguo Mansion. ”

Bai Chenghuan was silent in an instant, and stopped talking - Xiao Shaotang's painstaking efforts, she could fully understand.

But her heart is still empty in the end.

Xiao Shaotang felt her loss, so he explained more patiently:

"We don't know what the Weiguo Mansion thinks now, so it's better to be cautious. I only follow one rule, if they are good to you, then I am willing to be extra kind to them. ”

As he spoke, his tone became sharp:

"But if they treat you badly, or even have bad intentions, then don't blame me for being rude!"

"No, don't touch them! You promised me when we first formed the alliance!"

Bai Chenghuan took it back without hesitation, but there was a trepidation in her tone that she didn't even know.

Her mother seemed to hate her like that, and her heart hurt whenever she thought about it.

Xiao Shaotang didn't want to discuss this unpleasant thing with her anymore, so he hugged her tighter and comforted her:

"Well, if you say no, no, as long as they keep to themselves, I will definitely keep my promise. ”

After speaking, he reached out and closed her eyes:

"You've been running around all day, and you should be tired, stop talking and go to bed obediently. ”

Bai Chenghuan nodded, like a docile kitten, nestled in his arms, and closed his eyes peacefully.

Just when Xiao Shaotang thought she was asleep, she was about to get up and carry her to the bed, but her little face poked out of the tightly wrapped quilt.

She blinked her big eyes and looked at Xiao Shaotang cautiously:

"Xiao Shaotang, today, are you angry with me?"

Xiao Shaotang looked at her pitiful appearance, and felt angry and funny, she only knew at this time, would he also be angry?

So he deliberately kept a straight face and pretended to be angry:

"Yes, I can't wait to arrest you and beat you! Today I still think that if you come back, I will order the palace gate to be closed and you will not be allowed to enter!"

"Anyway, in your eyes, there is neither me as the emperor nor me as a husband, what else do I leave you for?"

"Then you, then you still go out of the palace to wait for me...... Xiao Shaotang, don't be angry with me, right?"

Bai Chenghuan rarely saw him with a straight face to himself, although he knew that at this point, he was just pretending to be angry, but he still felt guilty in his heart.

She cautiously reached out from under the quilt, touched his cheek, and lifted his cheeks up:

"Come, laugh at me, and tell me you're not mad at me! I know I'm too impulsive, it's me who is wrong, but I promise you that I won't do this kind of thing in the future!"

"Your Guarantee...... Hehe, I don't think I heard it!"

Regarding Bai Chenghuan's so-called assurance, Xiao Shaotang couldn't believe it anymore.

However, the cold face he deliberately pretended to be was also completely destroyed, and he couldn't help but smile helplessly in the palm of her hand, as she wished:

"You just rely on me to spoil you, and you are reluctant to blame you, so you dare to be so lawless, become a queen, and mess around at will!"

"Mmmm, I know you're good to me. ”

Bai Chenghuan was really glad that when he was tortured and bruised all over his body in this world, he could still have such a quiet corner.

Xiao Shaotang seemed to be able to fully understand her mind, wrapped the quilt around her again, and patted her dotingly:

"Don't worry, Huanhuan, no matter what happens to others in this world, you always have me. ”

Bai Chenghuan nodded desperately, and with some effort, he pulled the tightly wrapped quilt away:

"It's not cold in the dormitory, why do you always wrap me so tightly?"

The two of them are obviously hugging each other, but there is a thick quilt in the middle, don't they feel uncomfortable?

Xiao Shaotang smiled bitterly, lowered his head and gently bit her cheek:

"Huanhuan, are you sure that if you don't pass through this quilt, I won't do anything to you?"

For a man whose wife is pregnant, this is a really difficult time.

Even if you want to kiss her occasionally, you don't dare to indulge yourself too much, otherwise who knows if self-control will work?

"What ......"

Bai Chenghuan couldn't react at first, but when he reacted, his face turned red!

She hurriedly wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, and even buried her head in the quilt and began to be an ostrich—

At this time, we still have to be cautious, cautious, and we must not set yourself on fire!

"Haha!"

Xiao Shaotang couldn't help laughing, provoking her angry protest from the urn in the quilt:

"Don't laugh!

When Bai Chenghuan finally fell asleep, the thin layer of sorrow between his eyebrows finally dissipated.

Xiao Shaotang stared at her for a long time, and sighed in the deep night.

This is obviously a kind woman, but why didn't God treat her with the same kindness?

How can he make all the suffering in this world stop hurting the person he loves?

When the wind in the mountains and forests entered the night, the sound of howling and wailing sounded more desolate than in the daytime.

Facing the Beishan Temple in the capital, the dry lamp is faint, and the people under the lamp are like dead silence.

"Am I wrong...... But I can't control it at all...... She's still pregnant......"

In retrospect, Duchess Weiguo didn't know how hysterical she was at that moment.

But she can clearly remember that those black and white eyes are as dead as gray.

Whether it was in the past or later, when I looked at her, those eyes were always shining.

But today, it was she who completely extinguished this light with her own hands.

Wei Guogong was on the side, opening his mouth several times, but in the end he didn't know what to say.

The son they never knew was gone at birth, and the daughter they worked so hard to raise is now gone.

What could be more heart-wrenching than this?

So he didn't have anything to say about his wife's madness and anger at that moment.

But the situation of the Weiguo Mansion from now on - who knows what the emperor will think of their Xu family?

The next day, the Weiguo Mansion received a reward from the emperor.

Among them, some of the gold and silver items were directly specified to add sacrifices to the ritual performed by the Weiguo Mansion in Beishan Temple.

While Wei Guogong's heart was a little settled, there was a faint pain in a corner of his heart.

His well-behaved and sensible daughter will never have it again.

In the palace, Bai Chenghuan burned incense with his own hands on the Star Picking Pavilion and prayed for the innocent child who died young.

"In this life, I'm sorry that I took all your blessings. ”

"I hope that in the next life, if there is no me, you can return to the Xu family and be prosperous and safe for a lifetime. ”

"Now my mother doesn't want to see me, I can't make her sad anymore, I can only put a stick of incense on you here, and I hope you will be free from all kinds of suffering in the world as soon as possible and die in bliss. ”

The cold wind came from above, and the incense candles quickly burned out.

Bai Chenghuan was a little regretful, if only Yuan Hui was still in the capital, at least he could help that innocent soul to be reborn as soon as possible.

Seeing that Bai Chenghuan finished the incense, he still knelt in place and was stunned, and Shao Hui carefully persuaded:

"Queen Mother, it's windy here, let's go back?"

Ever since James Shichun died here, there have been rumors in the palace that this place is unlucky.

The queen mother is now pregnant, and it is better to stay in this kind of place.

Bai Chenghuan nodded, not embarrassing Shaohui.

The ritual of the Weiguo Mansion was carried out for seven days in a row.

Seven days later, the family returned to the city, but closed the door, and for the whole New Year, there was almost no movement with the old family.

Liang Guogongfu also felt puzzled, it is said that they have already made a marriage, and during the New Year's Festival, the two families should be closer than in previous years.

But this year, except for the steward of the Weiguo Mansion who sent a New Year's gift, Xu Chenglin, who was the son-in-law-to-be, did not come to the door.

Among them, the most uneasy is Liang Sixian.

She and Xu Chenglin met in a hurry on Chinese New Year's Eve, and without saying a word, Xu Chenglin was called away, and then never seen again.

And when it was time to walk around in the New Year, Xu Chenglin didn't come to the door.

Because of this, Liang Sixian was ridiculed a lot by several sisters, and he couldn't help but feel sad and uneasy.

After thinking about it, Liang Sixian felt that he still had to enter the palace and ask Cheng Huan.
