A light rain slowly drifted in the back garden, interrupting what Xia Qing wanted to say next.

"I remember there was a gazebo over there, let's go there and say. ”

Bai Youshi took the folding fan and pointed not far away.

Sure enough, there was a small pavilion there.

Rao has been here once, Xia Qing has never found this pavilion, but this first time he came to Baiyou, he knew where this pavilion was.

Everything made her very strange.

However, she still honestly followed Bai Youshi's footsteps to the pavilion.

The inside had obviously been cleaned beforehand, and there was not a trace of dust.

Xia Qing turned her head and happened to see Bai You, who was also looking at her.

"Sit down?"

"How do you know about this pavilion?"

"Isn't it easy to find, just stand there and look at it. ”

"But it was clearly covered up over there just now.........

"Didn't you just have something to tell me? ”

Bai Youshi interrupted her question, and the smile on his lips slowly faded.

Xia Qing saw that he had been avoiding questions, so he didn't continue to talk about himself.

She did have more important questions to ask him.

"When you are in a hundred times, would you rather be our people?"

"Yes, she was placed in the palace very early, and she is usually not touched, but there is no way to do it this time. ”

"She's loyal?"

"Naturally, you are loyal, otherwise how would we hand you over to her?"

"But she did something very strange. ”

Xia Qing straightened his face, frowned and continued, "I was kidnapped by a person not long ago. ”

"Kidnapped?"

Bai Youshi's eyes widened, as if he had heard about it for the first time.

"Yes, I went to the Zichong Palace in the evening, and I heard the old woman talking to a man........"

"Men?"

A smile suddenly appeared on Bai Youshi's face again.

"Yes, man. ”

"He kidnapped you?"

"Because I eavesdropped and he found out. ”

Xia Qing was a little embarrassed about this ring.

She was worried that she would be ridiculed by Baiyushi.

But apparently, Bai Youshi was more interested in the man.

"And then?"

Then I ran out as best I could. But then a group of eunuchs chased me, and I ran to Concubine Fang's palace...... Concubine Fang, you don't know, right? Then, Ning Ruo appeared, came out and took me back to the dance room from Concubine Fang, and covered for the man. ”

"There's something like that. ”

After listening to Xia Qing's words, Bai Yu did not have the slightest surprise.

As if he had already guessed.

"You don't seem strange at all. ”

"There's really nothing surprising. ”

He said, pausing again, "Because I absolutely believe in Ning Ruo's loyalty, if she dares to be disloyal, unless she wants to die." ”

"For..... Why do you say that......"

"You'll soon find out........ I'm more curious now about what happened to you. ”

"And then I obediently stayed in the dance room, and didn't dare to go out. I'm afraid of being recognized by that person when I go out, and I always feel that the man is from the palace. ”

"Hmm...... This time it's very smart......."

"You guy is begging .......!"

In the Lotus Palace, the atmosphere is much heavier than in the back garden.

The Queen Mother was holding a long string of prayer beads in her hand, and she was muttering Buddhist scriptures in her mouth.

She didn't seem to be planning to attend today's family dinner.

On her body, she was still wearing the linen clothes worn by the Buddha, and a pair of delicate phoenix eyes were also tightly closed, full of piety.

The door was cautiously opened.

A middle-aged palace man came in.

She first bowed to the Bodhisattva, and then cautiously walked to the Queen Mother's side, trying to say something.

"What do you want to say. ”

"The Queen Mother...... That one..... That ......."

"Say what you have to say. ”

The Queen Mother closed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth moved slightly.

"That.... Rajah..... The prince is here......."

"Lord ......."

The Queen Mother's tense face suddenly relaxed.

She opened her eyes suddenly, and the rosary in her hand fell in response.

"He, he's coming to the family dinner today?"

"Yes, Niangniang, doesn't the prince come to the family banquet every year?"

"How can he ......... this kid?"

"He's at the door now, do you want to see him?"

"He.... Have you waited for a long time......"

There was a trace of warmth on the face of the Queen Mother.

All year round, he was locked up in this lotus hall to eat fasting and recite Buddha, and he couldn't see people. Even the most good-tempered person can be driven crazy.

What's more, it is the queen mother who is used to brocade clothes and jade food.

But after so many years, she has survived.

She didn't find fault with this, and she didn't find fault with that.

Whatever the emperor gives, she wants.

She didn't even see her own son.

She has been like this for so many years.

Over the years, every time there was a family banquet, King Rui would stand in front of her palace gate for a long time, just to see her.

Although, she never opened the palace gates.

Although, he never entered the palace gate.

The two mothers and sons have been separated for so many years.

She didn't even know what her son looked like now, how tall he was, whether he had married a wife and had children.

All of it, she could only see in her dreams.

"Go and tell him that I don't see him. Let him go back to the family feast. ”

"But the Queen Mother ........."

"Go ahead, I'm going to keep chanting. ”

She picked up the rosary that had fallen to the ground and closed her eyes again.

His face was already calm.

When the palace people saw that she insisted, they didn't say anything, and went out after blessing their bodies.

It's just that what the palace people didn't see was that at the moment she turned around, the two tears that instantly fell from the queen mother's face.

It's coming, it's coming.

Soon, they will be reunited.

The Queen Mother opened her eyes, looked at the Buddha statue in front of her, and said secretly in her heart.

"O compassionate Buddha, I hope you can bless me and bless my son. I've been serving you for half my life, and I hope you can bless me with the life I want for the rest of my life........."

"I'm sorry, Lord Rui, the Queen Mother said no. ”

As soon as the palace people came out, they saw King Rui standing at the door in a daze.

He is wearing a purple robe today, with a long and jade body, and the whole person has a unique temperament.

It is worthy of being the famous Rui Wang Ye in the capital.

"My mother, is she worshipping the Buddha?"

"Yes, the Queen Mother recites the Buddha at this time every day. ”

"She's still strong?"

"Niangniang's body is very good, but her appetite for this meal is not as good as day by day. ”

"Aunt Lao told her mother to eat well and not to worry her son. ”

"I will convey it for Lord Rui. ”

"Thank you. The king was one step ahead. ”

"Congratulations to the prince. ”

The palace man stood at the door and saluted the back of King Rui.

This poor mother and son, for so many years, have always been like this.

The son and mother are separated, and they are separated for more than ten years.

The palace man shook his head regretfully and turned to leave.

The gate of Zichong Palace, which had been closed, gently cracked a small gap at this moment.

The Queen Mother stood behind the door and burst into tears.

She looked at her son's tall back and handsome face.

It turned out that he had grown so big.

It turned out that he was already a man.

It's no longer the spoiled kid it used to be.

It's not the shy little kid I used to be anymore.

She's also old.

Therefore, all she can do now is to help him one last time.
