As soon as he saw that Jingren Palace had arrived, Gonggong Yu nodded: "When it arrives, the old slave will go back to serve the emperor." ”

I turned my head and saw him turn away, his emaciated back looking a little older than usual in the snow, but when I looked back and saw the familiar Jingren Palace, which I had been in and out countless times, a strange thought suddenly rose in my heart.

Is this really going to be a strange place?

At this time, it was close to unitary, and the winter sky was dark very early, and the dusk sun shone on the red walls and green tiles around, looking like a different kind of scenery, I was standing at the door and watching, and I saw Kou'er and Xing'er coming from another road, holding a box in their hands, and when they saw me standing at the door, they hurriedly stopped: "Girl." ”

"What are you up to?"

"Niangniang's cough is again, let's go get medicine. ”

"Really?"

I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Is it strict zhòng?"

Kou'er frowned, and said softly: "The cough is quite strong, and sometimes I can't stop." ”

When I heard this, my brows furrowed, and I said, "I'll go and have a look." ”

"It's fine. ”

Kou'er nodded, I took Miao Yan and walked over with her, and when I arrived outside Chang Qing's house, I saw that the doors and windows were closed, and I could hear Chang Qing coughing in a low voice inside through the window.

Kou'er said, "Girl, wait a minute, I'll go in and report it." ”

I nodded, and then led Miao Yan to stand outside, and after a long time of going in, I heard the coughing sound inside and quieted down, but she didn't come out immediately, but stopped for a while, and then I saw her come out, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

I stepped forward: "—"

She said, "Girl, you better go back first." ”

"What's wrong?"

"Niangniang said that her illness is not easy to heal, don't let the little princess in, in case she is over, then the emperor will be angry. ”

"......" I was stunned, and I didn't know what to say for a while, so I was stunned at the door.

At this time, Xing'er's voice sounded in the house again, shouting in a low voice: "Sister Gu'er, come in!"

She bowed to me, then turned and retreated.

I stood at the door, forgetting to move for a while, and after a while, my chaotic mind barely sorted out a fact that "Chang Qing didn't want to see me".

Is this really?

Since when did she and I become so separated, although I know that we have never talked about everything, but in this palace, the only thing I feel sorry for, trust, and rely on is her, and she - although I am not her only one, I know more or less that she has the same feelings for me.

But how could it be like this?

I stood at her door for a long time, afraid that Miaoyan would be frozen, so I carried her back to our room.

For the next few days, I didn't see Chang Qing again.

Speaking of which, it was her illness that sank a little more, and the pills they got back from the Tai Hospital were still pills before, but later, the Tai Doctor also kept going back and forth in Jingren Palace every day, and the small kitchen began to fry the decoction, and the cold air of Jingren Palace diffused a faint smell of medicine every day.

I went there once or twice later, but she was still turned away on the grounds that she was "too sick and afraid to give the little princess and me a life". Later, I also sent Su Su and them to greet them every other day, and gradually, there was less contact.

In a blink of an eye, it was the tenth day of the first month.

Witty Words' Birthday.

On the eighth day of the first year, Pei Yuanhao came to dine with me, and mentioned how to spend Miaoyan's birthday, it seems that in his opinion, this is a big event, and it should be lively, after all, the little princess has not been by his side in the past years, no matter how good Pei Yuanxiu is to her, after all, he is not his biological parents, and he can take his knees, so this birthday, he wants to make a big difference.

Listening to his words, I was faint.

After a long while, I said softly: "The child is still young, and if she hurts her more, I am afraid that she will be blessed." ”

When Pei Yuanhao heard this, he fell silent.

Then, he never mentioned the princess's birthday.

On this day, we still got up early, and after breakfast, I planned to take her to Jixian Hall to have a look, first, to visit Fu Badai, and second, I heard that the prince was going to be an envoy with Lord Wu in two days, and I also wanted to meet him.

However, before they went out, they came first.

As soon as I entered the door, I smiled and saluted me and Miao Yan, and said, "Birthday greetings to the birthday star." ”

I hurriedly asked Su Su to help them up, and then smiled: "You guys are really, how did you think of this?"

Kou'er smiled: "It was the queen mother who asked us to come over and specially sent gifts to the princess." ”

"Oh?"

I was stunned for a moment, and then I saw two little eunuchs behind me walking in with a brocade box, carefully placing it on the table, and then saluting Miao Yan.

When I opened it, I saw that there was a pair of crystal clear jade bracelets, very exquisite, but it was accompanied by wonderful words, I said: "Thank you so much to the queen, mother-"

"Niangniang coughed badly in the morning, so she still couldn't come. ”

"Oh. ”

I didn't regret it, I glanced at the bracelet again, then closed the lid and let Su Su receive it.

At this time, there was another chaotic sound of footsteps outside, and it seemed that there were still a lot of people.

When I looked up, it turned out to be a large group of concubines, all of whom had come.

There are usually few people here on my side, plus Pei Yuanhao sent people to guard, the night is so quiet that even the wind is about to be heard, suddenly so many people came, but I was startled, hurriedly retreated, the first to walk in was the concubine Pang Yan, she was more mellow than in the past, but still full of childishness, as soon as she entered the door, she smiled with a spring breeze: "We came to celebrate the princess's birthday, I don't know if there is any noodles to eat." ”

Although I told Pei Yuanhao that I didn't want those ladies to come to me, but today is the princess's birthday, and they should come to celebrate her birthday, and I have a good impression of Pang Yan, so I smiled and asked: "Ladies and ladies are here, and they are far away." ”

Immediately afterwards, Concubine Shun Wen Sisi took the third prince, Concubine Ning Yang Jinqiao, and Concubine Liu Li and the second prince also walked in.

Then, a dark-skinned, wild beauty walked in, and I recognized it at a glance, it was Yumuya.

There were two other people behind her, who I looked a little embarrassed, they should be newcomers who had just been canonized, and the last one to walk in was Ye Yunshuang.

I glanced at her, didn't speak, and hurriedly asked Su Su to pour tea for them.

For a while, my cold and quiet room was also lively.

These people, more or less were able to speak back then, and some probably felt that my future would be inseparable from them, so at this time I also had to come to "stammer", not long after entering the house, the two new concubines came to give gifts, Wen Sisi also put a small brocade box in the hands of the third prince and held it, and handed it to me, which was a huge and bright bead, which seemed to be very valuable.

Although they came to congratulate Miaoyan on his birthday, I couldn't say anything bad, but gradually, I felt a little apprehensive in my heart.

After all, this feeling is not what I want right now.

While I was sitting and chatting with them, a few more people came in from outside, and as soon as I saw the leader of the leader, I immediately got up from my seat.

Nangong Lizhu walked in.

She was full of spring breeze, and as soon as she entered the house, she looked at the red and willow flowers in the house, and said with a smile: "It's so lively here." ”

Concubine Ning and the others glanced at each other, and hurriedly got up to salute her, Nangong Lizhu raised her hand and said with a smile: "This palace thought that only this palace remembered the princess's birthday, but I didn't expect that everyone remembered." ”

What she said was a little unpleasant, Yang Jinqiao listened to it on the side, and said with a smile: "Sister worries about so many things every day, and she still remembers the princess's birthday, why don't we remember it when we are idle?"

"That's right. ”

Nangong Lizhu smiled, then turned around and walked in front of me, looking at me with a smile: "Miss Yan, this palace came to celebrate the princess's birthday today, and you can always see her, right?"

I looked at her eyes, and I smiled a little bit on my lips: "The words of the noble concubine Niangniang made the light frightened, when did the lady not see the wonderful words?"

She chuckled, then looked down at the Miaoyan beside me.

Immediately, the smile on that face changed a little.

She squatted down to face Miaoyan, the smile in her eyes almost overflowed from the corners of her eyes, even the tips of her eyebrows were smiling, stretched out two hands, as if to hug her, and said softly: "Princess Miaoyan, do you remember me?"

Miao Yan stood beside me, one hand still holding the corner of my clothes, wooden.

Nangong Lizhu didn't mind at all, and moved forward a little more: "Princess, do you remember being in my palace that morning-"

As soon as I heard her words, my face sank, and I took a step to the side, right in the middle of her and the wonderful words.

Nangong Lizhu's outstretched hand touched the emptiness, and raised his head to look at me.

I smiled and said, "Niangniang came to visit Miaoyan, which is really a blessing for Miaoyan." However, His Majesty the Emperor also said that children should not hurt her too much. Niangniang's kindness, the people's daughter received it, and she also received it for the wonderful words. ”

Nangong Lizhu's face froze.

However, it was only a matter of a moment, and she immediately regained her composure, and smiled: "This is also reasonable. ”

Then he straightened up and said with a smile: "However, this birthday gift, this palace still has to give." ”

After speaking, she waved her hand, and two little eunuchs also walked out from behind her, but they carried a big brocade box over, it seemed that it was still very heavy, and the two of them were snorting, and finally moved to the house, and carefully put it down.

When the people around looked at it, they were stunned, not knowing what was inside.

I glanced at it, although I didn't know what it was, I always felt a little unhappy, but I still had to fool the past, I smiled and leaned over and saluted: "Thank you for your generous gift." ”

With that, he threw the gift behind him.
