After Yuxi left, Qiu Shi opened his mouth and asked: "Why did you tell Yuxi just now that you gave birth to a boy that day?" Do you have proof? ”

Ye has no evidence, if there is evidence, she will not beg Han Yuxi: "Mother, everyone said that I was pregnant with a son, and I felt that it was a son." ”

Lu Xiu couldn't help but interject: "Just now, the princess said that the child is filial piety." If it is conceived during the period of filial piety, then the child should not be kept. "If this child stays, not only will it ruin Han Jianming's future, but even this child will have no future.

Ye didn't seem to hear Lu Xiu's words, but just said to Qiu: "Mother, I don't have any other extravagant hopes, I just want to know if the child is still alive." ”

Qiu shook his head and said, "I can't do anything about this. "Even if I asked my son, I wouldn't tell her, otherwise I wouldn't have kept it from her all these years.

Seeing that the Qiu clan couldn't count on it, the Ye clan was a little desperate. In the end, his eyes fell on Qiqi. Grabbing Qiqi's hand, Ye said, "Qiqi, when you find your brother, you must take him to your mother's grave to show your mother." ”

This is the reason why Yuxi is reluctant to tell that the child is still alive, because the Ye family is a person who has to make inches, and he doesn't know what it means to stop in moderation. Tell her that the child is still alive, and she will beg to see the child before she dies. Maybe when she sees the child, she will beg her to let the child recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors. When the time comes, it will be really endless, how can Yuxi go along with her wishes.

Qiqi asked with some disbelief: "Mother, do I really have a younger brother?" ”

Ye Shi said with certainty: "Yes, you have a younger brother, he is still alive, but he is hidden by your father." Qiqi, you must find him and bring him to see his mother. "If you don't see each other in life, it's good to see you after you die.

Lu Xiu didn't wait for Qiqi to speak, and said, "Sister-in-law, aren't you embarrassed for the child?" "If you can't embarrass Yuxi, you will start to embarrass Qiqi. This child is a filial son, and even if he is really alive, it is impossible to see the light. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the eldest uncle to hide the child, and the princess would not keep her mouth shut, because this child could not recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.

Ye didn't pay attention to Lu Xiu, just looked at Qiqi and said: "Qiqi, you must promise your mother, otherwise your mother will not be blind." ”

Qiqi cried and said: "Mother, don't worry, if my brother is really alive, I will beg my father, and I will take my brother to see you when the time comes." "You can't blatant it, but you can still do it secretly.

It turns out that Qiqi is too simple to think about things at a young age, and this child can't see the light at all. Han Jianming has finally climbed to a high position now, if this handle is caught, even Yuxi will not be able to protect him. Therefore, he will not tell Qiqi where the child is, let alone let the child know his true identity.

Ye nodded and said, "Okay......" Before he finished speaking, his hand gradually drooped.

Lu Xiu saw Ye's eyes closed when he was on the side, and stepped forward and put his hand under Ye's nose. After a while, Lu Xiu whispered to Qiqi: "Your mother went to ......"

Qiqi cried loudly: "Mother, mother......"

Yuxi returned to the palace on the front foot, and received the news of Ye's death on the back foot. Yuxi didn't move his eyebrows, so he went back to the study and continued to discuss things with the ministers.

A few days ago, the doctor said that Ye's time was short, so the coffin and clothes were all ready. Now that the Ye family is gone, Lu Xiu is not flustered.

In the evening, Yuxi told Yunqing about this: "It's strange to say, I have been fine for a few years ago, why did I react that the child was dropped before I died?" "If the Ye family had doubts before, she would definitely send someone to find it in private. If the Ye family goes to find someone, it will definitely not be able to hide it from her. But Ye's silence over the years shows that she didn't doubt it before.

Yunqing thought for a moment and said, "Before people die, they may become smarter!" ”

Yu Xi sighed and said, "Both? "It's as if he's been through it. However, Yuxi quickly remembered the dream that Yunqing had and couldn't help laughing.

Yunqing didn't hide it from Yuxi, and said, "In that dream, I never thought that there was a problem with the medicine, let alone doubted the Liu family. But when he was about to die, it was as if someone had told me, and suddenly he realized that there must be something wrong with the medicine, and there would be no second person except the Liu family. ”

These days, Yunqing has eased up, and he no longer shy away from the things in his dreams. The first few days really scared him enough, and he was uneasy when he couldn't see familiar people.

Yuxi said: "That's pretty magical. "When she died in her last life, she didn't have any thoughts. Well, to be exact, she died with a lot of resentment.

Speaking of which, when I first came back to life, I often had nightmares, always dreaming of being burned to death by fire. Now, I haven't had this nightmare in years.

Yunqing said: "I won't go to Ye's funeral. When the time comes, you can go for a trip and just pay the whole salute. "With Yunqing's current status, he won't say anything if he doesn't attend Ye's funeral.

Yuxi nodded and said with some emotion: "Actually, if you want me to say, sister-in-law is really blessed." I haven't given birth to the Han family for four years after marrying into the Han family, my mother didn't say a word seriously, and my eldest brother didn't let the concubine stop avoiding the soup. It was only later that I learned that her body was cold, and it was not good for giving birth and raising her, and I didn't blame her. I finally got pregnant with Qiqi and gave birth by myself, but the mother and daughter were safe but the body was broken, and my eldest brother married the second room for the sake of the heir. But the eldest brother also treats her well, Brother Chang was born to take her to raise, it can be said that neither the mother nor the eldest brother has ever treated her badly. ”

Yun Qing had no feelings for the Ye family, and he didn't want to say more about her: "So marry a wife and marry a virtuous person, and in the future, they must choose a daughter-in-law for Brother Hao, but you can't choose someone who has no brains and doesn't know how important it is." ”

Yuxi nodded and said, "This is natural." "This daughter-in-law has never been chosen, the husband and wife have three small quarrels a day and a big quarrel for three days, and she has not lived a peaceful life.

Yunqing snorted and told Yuxi about another thing: "I'm going to go to the horse farm in Tong County in two days, and it is estimated that it will take five days to go back and forth." ”

Yuxi frowned and said, "No, you're still taking medicine, how can you go away." Don't worry about getting off the racecourse, just send someone you can rely on to take a trip. ”

Yunqing knew that there were other things to say, but once it was related to his body, Yuxi would not back down half a step. Yun Qinggang also asked tentatively, and when he saw that Yuxi didn't agree, he didn't insist, but just asked, "Then who do you think is appropriate?" ”

Yuxi said: "You decide this yourself. "It's not a big deal, so she doesn't interfere much.

Yunqing thought for a moment and said, "I want Si Bonian to go." After a pause, Yuxi said: "Si Bonian has been to the racecourse with me many times, and he is more familiar with the affairs of the racecourse, so I am more relieved to let him go." ”

Yuxi was so keen, when he heard this, he asked, "Do you want to transfer Si Bonian to serve in the army?" ”

Yun Qing nodded and said, "Si Bonian has been with me for a long time, and it's time to let it out." If he had been by my side, he would have buried him. ”

Yuxi didn't object, but said: "You'd better ask Si Bonian about this first, maybe he doesn't want to go to the army?" "Like Xu Wu, I'd rather stay in the palace than go to the army. People have their own aspirations, and what they think is good is not necessarily what the other person wants. Therefore, it is appropriate to ask the parties what they mean.

Yun Qing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask him tomorrow." ”

On the second day, Yunqing asked Si Bonian what he meant. Si Bonian is willing to go to the army, and if he goes to the army, he can also have a good future for his wife and children. Si Bonian said: "Lord Wang, next year I will attack the three provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou, and I want to go and do my part." "Only by fighting a war can we accumulate military merits and be promoted.

Yunqing nodded in agreement.

On the second day, Yuxi took Zao Zao and Brother Hao to Hanfu for condolences.

As soon as I entered the mourning hall, I saw Brother Chang and Qiqi and others kneeling in the mourning hall to burn paper money. Brother Chang and Brother Hua are relatively better, but Qiqi cried like a tearful person.

Qiqi forgot to cry when he saw Yuxi in a daze. She actually wanted to ask Yuxi about her brother, but she knew very well in her heart that even if she asked, Yuxi would not tell her. Not only that, but it will provoke Yuxi's disgust.

Who is Yuxi, just look at Qiqi's appearance and know what she is thinking. Yuxi said: "Pay attention to your body. ”

When Qiqi heard this, tears fell: "Aunt......" She thought that after yesterday's incident, Yuxi didn't give her a good face, but she didn't expect that Yuxi's attitude towards her was the same as before.

Yuxi came in, and the other guests were all waiting outside, and there were no idle people in the mourning hall. Yuxi said: "I know you have a lot of questions in your heart, but there are some things that you can't say or say. ”

Qiqi looked sad and asked, "Auntie, can't you really let me know?" "That's her own brother, and she wants to see him too.

Yuxi shook his head and said, "No." ”

Lu Xiu personally sent Yuxi out, and on the way Lu Xiu said softly: "Qiqi, this child is also pitiful, my sister-in-law forced her to find the child before she died, and Qiqi took the child to her grave." Qiqi didn't agree, so she grabbed Qiqi's hand and didn't close her eyes. "When she is dying, she will pit her daughter, and it is unlucky to have such a mother.

Yuxi said lightly: "No matter how much she persecutes, it's useless, the eldest brother won't tell Qiqi the whereabouts of that child." ”

Lu Xiu's heart turned upside down: "Princess, is that child really alive?" In fact, looking at Yuxi's attitude yesterday, she guessed that the child was still alive. Before, she thought the child was gone!

Yuxi hummed and said, "It's still alive, but no one knows where this kid is now except for the eldest brother." I guess even that kid doesn't know who he is! ”

Lu Xiu sighed and said, "This thing is ......."

Yuxi looked up at the sky, the sky was blue and there was no cloud: "The eldest brother will never let him recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, leaving him a life is already the biggest concession of the eldest brother." ”

Lu Xiu didn't know what to say.

Yuxi said: "Second sister-in-law, you have to take care of it inside and outside here, you have to pay attention to whether your body is tired." "If Lu Xiu is tired, there will be no one in charge of this family.

Lu Xiu said: "The princess doesn't have to worry about me, I will take care of myself." "Tired is tired, but this is the last time. The Ye family is gone, and there is no need to worry about any more moths in the future.

Yuxi thought for a while and said, "The eldest brother told me before that if the sister-in-law dies, he will keep it for three years. In the past few years, the Han family still needs you to take care of it. ”

Lu Xiu was a little surprised, she didn't expect Han Jianming to say that she would not marry within three years: "Princess, will that mother go to Jiangnan in the spring next year?" ”

Yuxi nodded and said, "This won't change." As for whether Brother Chang and Qiqi will follow, I don't know for the time being. It all depends on what Han Jianming means.

Lu Xiu nodded and said, "I know." This means that even if the Qiu clan leaves, she can't go to Shudi. Although I have long had this guess, I am still a little disappointed in my heart.

Seeing this, Yuxi said to Lu Xiu: "The second brother will lead troops to attack Yunnan next year, and he will come back when the battle is over." "Where Han Jianye will be transferred after the war is unknown for the time being.

Seeing Lu Xiu's worried face, Yuxi said: "The second brother is a leading general, so he doesn't have to go to the battlefield in person, and his life will not be in danger." "The most dangerous thing in the army is actually to play forward. However, the forward battalion is also the easiest place to make military achievements.

After sending Yuxi away, Lu Xiu went back to continue his work. I was busy until midnight.

Hearing that Qiqi was still in front of the mourning hall and hadn't eaten for a day, Lu Xiu asked someone to cook a bowl of somen noodles and send it over.

Ah Lan quickly came back and said, "Madam, the eldest girl said that she has no appetite and can't eat. ”

Lu Xiu said: "This kid, can your body stand it so much like this? ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard the maid come over and say, "Madam, the eldest girl fainted in front of the mourning hall." "Since Ye's illness, Qiqi has been taking care of her by her side, and she has not rested well. Now that I have experienced the blow of losing my mother, I can't stand the iron-beaten body that doesn't eat or sleep for a day and night.

When he opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar room, Qiqiyi was a little dazed for a moment. Soon, she came to her senses: "Am I not in the mourning hall? Why is it here? ”

Shi Qin said, "Girl, you fainted in the mourning hall. It was the second lady who sent you here. ”

Qiqi wanted to get up, but found that his whole body was weak: "Shi Qin, help me up, I want to go to the mourning hall." ”

Shi Qin cried and said, "Girl, how can your body stand it if you don't eat or sleep like this?" If the eldest lady sees you like this in heaven, she will definitely be sad. ”

Qiqi struggled to get up, and said, "I can't let my mother be alone in the mourning hall. ”

Shi Qin hurriedly said: "Girl, there is still the second young master in the mourning hall!" Girl, even if you don't sleep, you have to eat something. Girl, if you fall ill, you won't even be able to go to the funeral of the eldest lady. ”

When Qiqi heard this, he was honest. She is her mother's only daughter, and it wouldn't be unfilial if she didn't even show up for the funeral: "You go and get me something to eat." ”

Shi Qin quickly brought Qiqi a big bowl of red dates and millet porridge, accompanied by two vegetarian dishes.

Qiqi asked while eating, "Where is the aunt?" "It's a bit unusual that she woke up for so long, and her aunt didn't show up.

Shi Qin said cautiously: "The second lady was guarding when the girl was unconscious, and she was later persuaded by the eldest young master to go back to rest. ”

Ye passed away, Jiachang and Jiahua had to keep the spirit, and the outside affairs were all handled by Jiashun and the housekeeper. When he came back and saw Lu Xiu's tired appearance, he persuaded her to go back and rest. Seeing that Lu Xiu was unwilling, Jiashun lost his temper. This responds to that sentence, whose parents are distressed.

Lu Xiu couldn't resist his son, and seeing that Qiqi's life was not in danger, he went back to rest. Before leaving, tell the maid to call her if Qiqi wakes up. But when she fell asleep, she didn't dare to wake her up knowing that Qiqi woke up the maid next to her.

Qiqi lowered his head and did not speak.
