Xue Yinong said with a smile: "It's because I haven't been sick for many years, and when I get sick, it's menacing, okay, stop talking, I boiled porridge for you to eat." She got up and went to scoop the porridge. Xu Shutong looked at the pot on the stove where the water had been boiling, and Xue Yinong familiarly scooped a bowl of rice porridge for her, the porridge was very thin, but it was more helpful for sick people to drink more rice soup.

She stirred the enamel in the bowl a few times, sat down on the edge of the bed, and wanted to feed Xu Shutong to drink. Xu Shutong hurriedly said: "No, I'm not a serious illness, where can I use the emperor's service." ”

Xue Yinong naturally refused, but used enamel to constantly stir and dissipate heat, and did not blow at all, for fear that his spittle stars would fly on it, which would make people feel disgusting.

When it was almost cold, he scooped a spoon and fed it to Xu Shutong. Xu Shutong opened his mouth to eat, and scooped another bite. She ate, looked outside, and woke up suddenly, 'Ahh Xue Yinong hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Isn't it too hot. ”

Xu Shutong shook his head, "No." Shouldn't the emperor have gone to the early court at this time, why is he still here. ”

Xue Yinong smiled and said: "It turns out that this is the case, I told Father-in-law Ren that I will ask the ministers for leave today, so that they can write a note for something, because I have to take care of a very important person." ”

She said lightly, and then the words fell on Xu Shutong's heart, like a boulder thrown into the water, causing a huge splash, and it was difficult to calm down anymore.

Since her father and mother are no longer alive, few people care about her so much, thinking of this, her eyes are slightly red, and tears are stored in them. "Why do you bother like this, I'm not worth it. Don't think you're going to buy me off, I'm not going to be grateful to you. Xu Shutong said a few heavy words, but her tone was not as tough as she said.

Xue Yinong just smiled slightly, not taking Xu Shutong's 'angry' words to heart, those words seemed to be deliberately said to her. Why should she go to her heart?

"I know that you can't be bought lightly, so I'll treat each other with my heart and drink porridge." Xu Shutong finished drinking the porridge and lay down to rest.

In the afternoon, the palace maid came in to report that it was Mama Mei from Kunyuan Palace who came to ask Mrs. Xu for her guilt.

Xue Yinong shook his face, "Just pass on my words, I don't see!" There was a bit of anger in her words. Xu Shutong pulled her sleeve, and Xue Yinong asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Let her in, I'm sure she has something to say." Although she has seen a lot of this kind of trick, how can she not watch it if others want to perform.

"Are you sure?" Xue Yinong raised his eyebrows.

"Yes."

When Mama Mei came in, she inevitably cried bitterly and repented of what had happened. "It's all the slave's fault, it's the slave maid's own assertion to embarrass the lady, it's not the queen's business, she was also very angry when she knew, saying that if the lady doesn't forgive the slave and maid, she won't dare to ask for the slave in the future...... Madam, there are all mistakes, all the slaves' faults. ”

Mama Mei kowtowed and confessed, and her head touched the ground with a banging sound, which made Xue Yinong a little upset. "She's not without fault, she didn't notice that there were evil slaves around her, and this was a dereliction of her duty."

Mama Mei didn't dare to speak, she just kowtowed, and after a while, the ground was covered with blood, and her forehead was red, and she really had a lot of strength.

Xue Yinong asked, "Shutong, this matter is about you, I want to ask you what you mean?" ”

Xu Shutong understands that this is Xue Yinong giving her a chance to reconcile with each other, after all, she has a stiff relationship with the queen, and she will trouble herself in the future, and her life will not be comfortable.

She said: "Since it was a misunderstanding, then forget it, you go back to tell Queen Sù, just say I know." ”

Mama Mei hurriedly responded, but she felt that Xu Shutong was pretending to be generous in front of the emperor, but she didn't care about this, one day, she would have to get back the shame she suffered today.

Mama Mei put down the gift given by the queen and walked away.

Xue Yinong was unfair, "You let her go so lightly, but she may not let you go, I'm afraid that I will still hate you, you didn't see the hateful gaze when she went out just now, you, you're so stupid." ”

Xu Shutong smiled: "Am I stupid? Isn't there someone who is stupider than me? When she said, she looked at Xue Yinong, and Xue Yinong turned her face very uncomfortably.

Xu Shutong's illness was cured after a few days, she came and went quickly, and her life was still as usual.

It's just that the end of the year is approaching. On this day, Cun Xi asked her, "Madam, are we going to celebrate the New Year in the palace this time, or are we going back to the house?" ”

Xu Shutong seemed to be stopped by this question, and was stunned for a moment before he said: "There are no relatives outside." ”

Cun Xi already knew her plans, and said with a smile: "Yes, there is no emperor outside." But there are in the palace. She smiled narrowly, Xu Shutong couldn't understand it, but he didn't turn around to make fun of her. I regret these days, and I look at Xue Yinong's various things, and find that the emperor is indeed a person with an excellent personality, unless someone offends her, she is really easy to speak, often with a smile on her face, and rarely has a fight.

And he is also very talkative, talking about things that he has never heard of, and sometimes he also tells stories, but he has never heard of the story, and the palace maids and eunuchs in this room are very strange, and they often move a small stool to listen to it.

is not only good to Xu Shutong, but also good to her, causing her to be heartbroken every time, secretly pulling the corners of Xue Yi's clothes, touching her little hands or something, of course, these things are extremely obscure.

No matter how obscure things are, there are still people who will see them. Luo Yan's eyes were always staring at her paws like knives, causing her to look around every time she wanted to secretly eat Xue Yinong's small tofu, to see if there were any wild geese.

Xu Shutong saw that Cun Xi was distracted, and stretched out his hand and waved it a few times in front of her face, "I'm thinking about it again." She was very sure, and if she cherished those few times, she naturally couldn't escape her eyes.

Cun Xi smiled: "Well, gnaw the emperor in your mind!" ”

Xu Shutong sneered. The topic continued to return to the New Year, Xu Shutong said: "If we don't go back, it's better to write a letter to the housekeeper, entrust him with the New Year's Festival in the house, and reward the little maids and girls as usual." ”

The host's family is not there, and this New Year's red envelope is indispensable.

Regret should be. Then he got up and took a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, polished the ink, and asked Xu Shutong to write a letter back.

Xue Yinong came in from outside, dusted off the cold, and sighed: "This is the New Year, the vassal kings of various places, as well as the envoys of various countries, are busy entering Beijing to pay tribute......"

When she suddenly talked about it, Xu Shutong gave a stirring spirit, and seemed to know what she was going to say next. His eyes followed Xue Yinong's seat, and he also fixed on her.

Sure enough, I saw her and said: "Shutong, the eldest prince is also going to Beijing, if he sees that you have not done anything to me, will he embarrass you." ”

Are you worried about her? It's just that she didn't completely tell Xue Yinong the truth, but just to let Xue Yinong deal with Xue Qingqiu, she watched the snipe and mussels fight each other, and the fisherman profited.

"Don't worry, I have my own turnover."

"Hmm." Xue Yinong nodded. After being silent for a while, he said, "I still have an idea to discuss with you." I want to take advantage of the eldest prince's entry into Beijing this time to let people check the palace of respect, if your sister is really in his hands, there will definitely be some clues, we will take advantage of his absence, and your sister will be easier to rescue. ”

Xue Yinong looked at Xu Shutong, to the effect that he wanted to ask her what she meant. Xu Shutong said: "The emperor's idea is very good, but this matter is also related to his control of me, and it is difficult to keep it secret, I am afraid that it will not be easy to find." ”

Xu Shutong's worries, Xue Yinong didn't think about it. She said, "I know, I will be very careful!" After talking about the topic of Yan Sù, Xue Yinong smiled and took out a letter, "It was the queen mother who sent it to the palace, saying that my sister will come back in a few days and will come to see me." Xue Yinong hadn't seen Xue Wanli, and since she crossed over, this sister seemed to have disappeared. Mother said that she was very wild, and she was rarely able to stay quietly.

Xue Yinong only knew that this sister and her were twins, and the two were very similar, and when she heard that she was coming back, she was also very curious.

"Then congratulations to the emperor and the family reunion." When Xu Shutong spoke, the loneliness in his eyes flashed. A smile quickly appeared on his face, and he was a little more impatient than Xue Yinong, "I heard that the princess and the emperor look very similar, I don't know if the two of them stand together and can't tell the difference." ”

"yes, I think so, too!"

A few days later, Xue gradually left and returned to the palace. Although it is still the old place, the plaque on the gate has long since been renamed. The black background is golden, and it reads 'Sujin Imperial Palace', which can be said to be the most noble mansion in the world, but Xue Dingshan and Empress Dowager He have always been in the habit of living outside, and the Empress Dowager is presided over in the palace.

After all, the young and the young are orderly, with her sister in charge, Empress Dowager He has less rules and more leisure outside. I heard the next person report: "The fifth princess is back." ”

Empress Dowager He hurriedly said: "I'm coming back, please come in quickly." Xue gradually left the men's clothes, rushed back, and greeted her mother with a smile, but she didn't do a woman's salute.

"Queen Mother, my son-in-law is back."

Empress Dowager He put on a stinky face on her smiling face like a flower, and said very resentfully: "You still know that when you come back, the mourning family still thinks that you have forgotten where the Jì family lives." ”

Xue Yanli knew that her mother was not really angry with her when she said this, so she still had a smile on her face, sat down beside her, and grabbed her arm, "Don't you know this, otherwise how can you see the queen mother!" She blinked mischievously and looked around, "Fourth brother really became the emperor?" When Erchen heard it outside, he thought it was a misinformation from someone else. ”

"You don't have to make excuses, forget it if you don't come back, and you are embarrassed to say the word 'miscommunication', you don't have to let the mourning family die of shame for you." Empress Dowager He took a look at Xue Wanli's dress, if it weren't for Xue Wanli's very active and lively personality, she would almost have thought that Xue Yiqiang was strong. "Now that you're back, what are you doing wearing this? The daughter's family doesn't look like a daughter's family at all, and after the New Year, the mourning family asks your royal brother to find you a family affair, and you also accept your temperament, don't go out. ”

As soon as he heard that he couldn't go out, Xue Wanli's face collapsed, as if his chin was made of rubber bands, and he wanted to fall to the ground.
