After the end of a bloody storm, Chu Xue's life finally went smoothly like never before.

As far as she is concerned, after Xu Jinhe was banned, the power fell into her hands, regardless of grace and status, she has truly become the first person in the harem.

And since she came back from the Qin Mansion that night, she has completely recovered her body, and the days of the emperor and the concubine have come back again.

After a long period of separation and longing, the two became more and more like glue, during the day, Song Chen was still busy with political affairs in the previous dynasty, Chu Xue took care of Le'er to take care of palace affairs, and stayed until night, the returning king seemed to have returned to the time of the newlywed, and the warm requests outside the gentleness often overwhelmed her.

But there's nothing wrong with that, as a favorite concubine, Cheng Huan is supposed to be, and her whole person is becoming more and more bright and charming, and the good complexion on her face from time to time makes her better than makeup, the reason is that Song Chen is the biggest hero.

Every day on the mirror makeup, it is inevitable to hear the admiration of the palace maids, look at the more charming face in the mirror, and then think of the love of men at night, she is sweet and satisfied, the years are quiet, think about it is nothing more than that!

But she always felt guilty when she thought of the lost child, and it would be nice if he could come back. So every day she would set aside half an hour in front of the shrine to pray for the child to return to her womb and for the redemption of her heart.

~~

Entering the spring of March, the weather is warmer, seeing that it is Qingming in a few days, the skillful palace people tied the paper kite for the two little princesses Ning Ning and Le'er, for a few days, the little sisters went to the Funing Palace to ask the imperial grandmother for peace, and then hurriedly ran to the imperial garden to play this fresh game.

On this sunny day, Li Jiaoyun and Chu Xue came to the garden to enjoy the spring. The daughters were playing on the side, and the mothers were also resting and saying something considerate.

The apricot blossoms in the distance were blooming just right, the hot tea in the pavilion was fragrant, Li Jiaoyun pointed to Le'er who was running around behind her sister not far away, and said to Chu Xue with a smile: "Don't look at Le'er's small size, she runs quite fast, and it's not bad compared to Ning Ning!" ”

Chu Xue also smiled: "Sister, don't praise her, fortunately Ning Ning has it, otherwise this girl doesn't know what to look like!" The bigger it is, the harder it is to manage. ”

Li Jiaoyun looked at her with a smile, "I heard that Le'er's temperament follows the emperor, which is no wonder, but this will make the emperor hurt even more, besides, since she is a princess, it doesn't hurt to be pampered." ”

Chu Xue picked up the teacup and sighed faintly: "Fortunately, it's a princess, otherwise I don't know if I can get married when I grow up." ”

One sentence amused everyone, and Yanling Yuzhu covered their mouths and chuckled.

Li Jiaoyun teased her, "My sister is also worried too early!" How old is Le'er...... But there is a saying that what the former is like, what is the latter is like, Le'er's temperament is like a boy, presumably it is time for a prince to come next. ”

Chu Xue was busy sneering at her, "Sister is happy with me......"

The two sisters were chatting, and suddenly saw a tall figure walk into sight, and Song Chen came.

Today's government affairs are not too busy, and when I heard that the two daughters were having fun in the imperial garden, the father became interested and came to look for his daughters.

Ning Ning saw his father first, and hurriedly shouted: "Father! ”

When he heard the joy of looking up at the sky, he hurriedly turned around, and sure enough, he saw his father, and before his sister could lift his feet, he threw himself into his father's arms.

"Father......" The little girl finished calling sweetly, and kissed again, Song Chen laughed, kissed Le'er first, and then stretched out his hand to Ning Ning, and said, "Ning Ning come here." ”

Ning Ning ran to his father with a smile.

Don't look at the little girl is only five years old, she already has some ideas, if her father only hugs her sister and doesn't hug her, she must pout and think about it.

Chu Xue and Li Jiaoyun also got up and came to Song Chen, and saluted in unison, "The concubine asks the emperor for peace." ”

Song Chen looked at the eyebrows and eyes of the two sisters, and asked in a harmonious voice, "What are you talking about?" ”

Li Jiaoyun said with a smile: "The concubine is asking when the concubine will add another prince to the emperor!" ”

"Sister Rong is used to making fun of concubines, and the emperor is quick to make decisions for concubines." Chu Xue and Song Chen are coquettish.

Unexpectedly, Song Chen said: "Well, Concubine Rong is right, I also want to ask!" Then he looked at her with a smile.

Chu Xue bit her lip and wanted to say something, but she saw the two little girls looking up at her, and hurriedly changed the topic: "I heard that Shang Shan Jian has a new batch of spring bamboo shoots from the south of the Yangtze River today, I wonder if the emperor can appreciate his face at noon and accompany the concubines to taste it together?" ”

"This is good, I'm right." Song Chen was full of smiles, she originally planned to have lunch with her at noon, but now she took the initiative to do so, and she really had the same heart.

Li Jiaoyun on the side wanted to excuse herself: "There is still something in the palace of the concubines, so I won't disturb the emperor and my mother......"

"Sister," Chu Xue hurriedly stopped her, "We haven't eaten together for a long time, so let's put aside the affairs in my sister's palace for the time being, and enjoy face." ”

Li Jiaoyun was a little embarrassed.

After so many things, she knows very well who Song Chen's heart is, and she doesn't want to bother the two of them lightly, in her opinion, as long as Song Chen can value her two children, she will be satisfied, and the rest, she knows that she has never gotten it, and she doesn't want to have extravagant hopes.

But Chu Xue felt guilty about her in her heart.

In any case, Li Jiaoyun has been with Song Chen for a longer time, and when Song Chen obviously favors herself, she can still treat herself sincerely, compared to Xu Jinhe, who is benevolent on the surface and actually ruthless, Li Jiaoyun is too much stronger.

If it is possible, Chu Xue really hopes that Li Jiaoyun can live a better life.

But she also understands that Song Chen's heart is in herself, and she really doesn't want to share his love with others, so she can only try her best to compensate Li Jiaoyun in other aspects.

Knowing what Jiaoyun was afraid of, Song Chen also felt a trace of guilt in his heart, looked down at Song Ning, and said: "What Concubine Yi said is that I may not have eaten with Ning Ning for a long time, if there is something at hand, put it down for the time being, and go to Yufu Palace at noon." ”

"Yes."

The husband had already spoken, and Li Jiaoyun looked at Ning Ning, who was delighted, and had no choice but to respond.

So at noon on this day, Yufu Palace ushered in a lively lunch.

When Li Jiaoyun's mother and daughter retired, Le'er also followed the nurse to rest, and the palace finally calmed down.

However, after keeping warm, Song Chen wanted to make it bad again, seeing that the man was about to move, Chu Xue hurriedly stopped him, "I have to go to the Qinzheng Palace in the afternoon, the emperor will have a good rest here." ”

At lunchtime, I accompanied Li Jiaoyun to drink a few glasses of fruit wine, and at this moment, the wine strength came up, Chu Xue's face was flushed, and her beauty was so attractive, Song Chen was willing to give up, took her into his arms and kissed her ear lightly and said: "I am working here today, and it is also important to extend the imperial heir, how can Xue'er slack off?" ”

He spoke flatteringly, and her face was even redder as she was caressed by the warm breath, and she was speechless, in a daze, and unconsciously obeyed him.

In the afternoon of this day, Liangxi and a group of little eunuchs waited for an hour and a half before finally seeing the king who was refreshed after resting.

~~

Xu is Chu Xue's pious prayer every day touched the gods, Song Chen's diligent cultivation finally had a harvest, at the end of April, Chu Xue's monthly letter was a few days late, please Cheng Zisong after the pulse, finally confirmed the good news, she is pregnant again.

Yufu Palace was overjoyed, got the letter, Qiu Yan put aside the important things at hand and came over to congratulate her, and just sent Fugui to Funing Palace to deliver the news, and the Queen Mother's rewards followed...... Of course, the happiest one, except for Chu Xue herself, is Song Chen, who is criticizing the folds in the Qinzheng Palace.

The icing on the cake came before him, and when he was done with his business, the king rushed back early.

Early summer is coming, the hall is refreshing and fragrant, Chu Xue is personally fiddling with a pot of jasmine, the sunset is spilling into the hall, is falling on her, Song Chen stands quietly aside, looking at the beauty dressed in golden light, his heart is extremely warm.

Chu Xue was engrossed in the flowers in the pot, carefully trimmed the flower branches with small flower scissors, watered them one by one, and looked at them for a long time, and finally satisfied. As soon as he turned around, he was startled by the man behind him.

Seeing that she was trembling with shock, Song Chen took the person into his arms without waiting for the resentment, and comforted her quietly with a generous embrace.

This was really the best comfort, she didn't say anything, just curled the corners of her lips, and quietly smelled the incense on his clothes.

Both of them were silent, and after a long time, he said softly: "I'm going to work hard for you again." ”

She replied gently, "Giving birth to children for the emperor is what a concubine should do, even if it is hard, the concubine is willing." ”

He kissed her forehead and said again, "Don't worry, no one can hurt you this time." ”

Hearing this, her heart suddenly trembled, and a wave of guilt immediately welled up in her heart, and she thought of the child she had lost again.

He likes children so much, and he has done such things that are sorry for him......

In the end, it was not contained, tears welled up, and the eyelashes were wet again in an instant.

Hearing the sobbing, he was taken aback, hurriedly raised her chin, and asked softly and eagerly, "What's wrong?" Why did you cry again? ”

She said in a dumb voice: "Last time, it was the concubine who was not good...... It's the concubine who didn't take good care of the child......"

Although she was uncomfortable, she never said it, she was still sensible.

But no matter what, in this life, she hid too much from him.

She became more and more sad, and he was a little at a loss, so he had to kiss away her tears, thought about it, and comforted: "It's not good for me, I shouldn't leave you alone...... Once all the qiē has passed, isn't the child back again? Don't be sad, no matter what, think about this one in your womb first. ”

"Hmm." She nodded.

I really hope what he said is true, and now in the womb is the child she lost last time.

She knew that if she continued to cry, it would make the innocent him even more sad, so she had to try not to let herself think about it anymore and stabilize her feelings.

One qiē, look ahead.

~~

Soon after Chu Xue was diagnosed as pregnant, it was the Duanyang Festival on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, and her Le'er turned two years old.

Seeing the zongzi leaves that had been placed early in the morning, Chu Xue suddenly thought of the day when she was happy two years ago, and remembered that she had worked hard to wrap the zongzi for a long time but did not eat it. But who would have thought that the lively Le'er would refuse to move his legs when he saw something fun, and he wanted to make trouble with his mother, Chu Xue was helpless, in order to let Ruyue not be disturbed, he had to quit the ranks of making zongzi and took Le'er to the yard to play.

But even in the hospital, Le'er was still restless, and she wanted to pull her mother out with her, Yanling saw with a few nurses, and her heart was in her throat, for fear that the little girl would accidentally hit her mother's stomach, and she wanted to stop her, but she was afraid that the villain would have a princess temper, and she was very embarrassed.

However, before they could be anxious, Yanling saw the savior, and the king suddenly arrived.

Sure enough, seeing Le'er pestering Chu Xue vigorously, Song Chen immediately straightened his face and said, "Le'er, don't always pester your mother." ”

Le'er, who just wanted to pounce on his father, saw his face and immediately stopped and pouted.

Seeing the little girl like this, Song Chen felt funny and distressed, took a few steps forward, personally hugged the little man into his arms, and explained in harmony: "There is a baby in the mother's belly, Le'er is going to be a sister, of course you have to be sensible, if Le'er accidentally bumps into the mother's belly and the baby is injured, what should I do?" ”

Le'er didn't seem to understand, blinked her eyes wide, and said, "Sister? ”

Chu Xue smiled and nodded, pointed to her lower abdomen, and explained to the little girl: "The baby is here, do you like it?" ”

Le'er thought for a while, said, "I like it," and then asked, "Brother, sister?" ”

The two-year-old girl couldn't say too long a sentence, but the adults obviously understood what she meant, and Song Chen asked her with a smile: "Does Le'er want a brother or a sister?" ”

The little girl didn't even think about it, and said firmly: "Brother and sister." ”

Chu Xue tapped her little brain and said angrily, "Brother and sister want it?" Le'er is so greedy? ”

The little girl laughed.

Her father glanced at her mother with a smile, and said slowly: "Don't worry, younger brothers and sisters will have it." ”
