In the blink of an eye, half a month of time is like the flowing water between the fingers, little by little the loss of clean, with a burst of autumn rain falling, Jingling will enter the middle of October, the summer heat is dissipated by this rain clean, people have changed into autumn clothes and long shirts, only feel that even the oncoming breeze, but also a little more autumn dryness.

At this time, even the maple leaves of Geumsan are dyed with red glow, attracting many people in the capital to go by boat and car, and enjoy the red leaves that spread all over the mountains and fields like flames.

As the night fell, when the layers of thin clouds overlapped, a silky drizzle gradually fell outside, and the rain fell on the leaves outside the window, and the bushes made a slight rustling sound, which fell into the ears, and was extraordinarily quiet.

Gu Yanling was originally lazily lying on the beauty couch covered with fire fox fur, holding a soft pillow with one hand and holding a chess game to read, at this moment he heard the sound of rain outside the window, and couldn't help but turn his head to look, look at the gloomy night, feel the coolness of the light rain, and couldn't help but feel sleepy, and couldn't help covering his yawning lips with his hand.

At this moment, the sound of the curtain sounded softly, and then I saw Huaizhu walking in with some rare object, which caused Jiang Zhu, who followed up, to purse his lips and chuckle.

"What a good thing, but teach you to hold it in your arms like this. ”

Seeing Gu Yanling tilting his head and asking with interest, before Huaizhu could speak, Jiang Zhu smiled and pointed first: "Just now when we were talking, we thought of the fried chestnuts we ate before, and the gluttonous worms in Huaizhu's stomach hooked up, even if we started to do it, we couldn't stop it, and I wanted to bring it to the eldest grandson to taste it." ”

Seeing such a little daughter's attitude, Gu Yanling always likes it, so her eyes are a little softer with a smile, and at this moment, Huaizhu saw that everything was said by Jiang Zhu, so she didn't say much, only smiled and sent the fried chestnuts in her arms to Gu Yanling's case, and said quite carefully: "It's just that the mountains and fields eat, and I don't know if the girl is used to eating." ”

As he spoke, the fragrance of the chestnuts emanated hotly, Gu Yanling lowered his eyes, looked at the cracked opening, as if he was smiling, the chestnuts were happy, he reached out and twisted one, and the warmth of the chestnuts was passed to his hands little by little.

"Slave and maid, don't get your hands dirty. ”

Seeing that Libi was about to step forward to help, Gu Yanling waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's just a dirty hand wash and wash the feces, I'm not a child, where can I ask you to help with everything, then my hands will really be wasted." ”

As he spoke, the chestnut shell was peeled off, and Gu Yanling fed the golden and slightly crispy chestnuts into his mouth, and the soft and sweet taste suddenly melted on the tip of his tongue, and he only felt that he liked it very much.

Seeing Huaizhu looking at herself expectantly, the corners of Gu Yanling's lips were hooked, and he did not hide his appreciation: "I'm afraid that I will teach you to do it in the future." ”

"What's that?"

While he was talking, Xiao Yi's voice came from outside, and between the curtains, he saw Xiao Yi, who was dressed in regular clothes, lift the curtain and enter, and the tip of his nose moved: "I smell the fragrance outside." ”

"If you don't come again, I'm afraid you'll be eaten by me. ”

Seeing Gu Yanling playfully pointing to the table in front of him, Xiao Yi smiled and walked in, and when he looked down and saw that it was fried chestnuts, he picked up one and peeled it off and threw it into his mouth, then nodded and said, "If you like it, you can often ask them to do it." ”

When Gu Yanling heard this, he immediately smiled and pointed to Huaizhu and said, "I didn't say this, so you came." ”

After speaking, the little palace ladies walked in with Tan Mo, waiting for Xiao Yi to freshen up, and when everyone retreated, only Xiao Yi and Gu Yanling were left in the room, under the mottled glass lamp, Xiao Yi saw the woman with her eyebrows in her side eyes, and couldn't help lying down with one hand, staring silently with a smile, as if she couldn't get tired of seeing it in this life.

Gu Yanling saw it, but as if he didn't see it, Gu Zi picked up the chess game that was thrown on the case and looked at it, Xiao Yi got up and grabbed it when he saw this, glanced at it and hid it behind him and said: "It's hard to read a book, what if you're tired." ”

Gu Yanling couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Could it be that you want to read this chess game to me?"

Xiao Yi really wanted to read it when he heard the sound, and at this moment, he lowered his eyes and saw Gu Yanling's lower abdomen, which was more prominent, and his eyes couldn't help but warm, as if the spring breeze was blowing through the calm blue waves, and he said slowly: "In more than two months, I will really be a father." ”

Gu Yanling was relieved when she heard this, looked down at her increasingly bulky body, and couldn't help but put her hand on her lower abdomen and gently touched it, as if caressing the most precious treasure in the world, and muttered: "After waiting for these days, looking forward to these days, I finally want to see them." ”

"When I think about it, I can't help but feel a little nervous. ”

As Gu Yanling spoke, he looked at Xiao Yi with a smile, which caused Xiao Yi's heart to move, and he couldn't help but get up and squat under Gu Yanling's couch, carefully reaching out and covering Gu Yanling's hand, and suddenly, as if he could feel the child moving lightly under his palm.

"Have you figured out the name, father?"

Hearing Gu Yanling's question, Xiao Yi raised his head helplessly, and smiled at Gu Yanling's bowed head, and then said loudly: "Since I knew that you were pregnant, the imperial grandfather had already personally worked hard to name the child, and a few days ago, the imperial grandfather also summoned me and wrote down those words for me one by one, whether it is a boy or a girl, the names all have excellent meanings, where is there still a place for me to interfere." ”

Gu Yanling also smiled when she heard this, whether it was the prince or the grandson, except for the crown prince Xiao Ji and the eldest grandson Xiao Yi, they were all named by Emperor Jianheng himself, and the next ones were all in accordance with the usual practice, the name was first selected by the Ministry of Rites, and then selected by Emperor Jianheng himself, and now whether it is a boy or a girl in her belly, Emperor Jianheng is so attentive, it can be seen that in this love for the East Palace, Emperor Jianheng really wants to pass it on.

So good, but not so good.

Okay, it is natural to think that the child can get more love, which is much happier than indifference.

But the love of the Son of Heaven is too heavy, and what you have to bear under this love is too heavy.

Now I don't know how many pairs of eyes, all staring at the child in her womb through this window, this door, or envy, or calculating.

experienced the tragedy of losing a son in a previous life, or rather-

It's a lesson.

In this life, even if she tries her best, she will keep this child safe for the rest of her life.

If it is a girl, it may be easy, and in the future she will let her live the happiest life, but if this is a boy in the womb, the only way to get peace is to put him on the throne, and only by sitting in the highest place can he not tremble and live under others, worrying about when he will be a sword.

"Whether it's a boy or a girl, I won't let anyone hurt him or her, and I will watch him or her grow up until the day he or she gets married. ”

As if he saw Gu Yanling's thoughts, Xiao Yi wrapped Gu Yanling's hands warmly in his palms at this time, and then his words were full of tenderness.

"Although the child's name is taken by the emperor's grandfather, I have already decided on this milk name, whether it is a boy or a girl, I will call him (her) Arnold. ”

Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Gu Yanling couldn't help but raise his head to Xiao Yi's gentle and smiling eyes, and murmured softly: "Arnold." ”

Is he or she the bond and promise of their life?

"Good. ”

Gu Yanling smiled, and said with a shallow tenderness in his eyes: "It's called Arnold." ”
