also asked her not to worry, the Queen Mother couldn't understand, "I heard that you let that assassin go?" You're raising tigers. The Queen Mother was very dissatisfied with this, how could she be so soft-hearted as an emperor.

Li Tong also said: "If the emperor doesn't tell me where he is, I'll catch you again." ”

Xue Yinong thanked Li Tong for his enthusiasm, and said: "No need, I have said it, it is difficult for the horse to chase, how can I go back on my word, I said that I will let it go, and I will accumulate blessings for my child, if he comes again next time, I will do my best to kill it, and it is not too late to kill him if I want to." ”

At this time, the wild goose passed on the arrival of the beauty. He Sixian didn't want to come, but he couldn't stand the pruning of the girls, saying that everyone had gone, and if there was no one in Yinxiayuan, he wouldn't seem to be very maverick and hateful.

He Sixian greeted him once, and everyone didn't say anything.

After saying a few words, he dispersed.

When she was at the door, Xu Muran came over with the girl, and Gao Zhirou was also among them, and when she saw the Queen Mother and them coming out, she hurriedly avoided the side.

He Sixian walked at the end and glanced at Gao Zhirou, Gao Zhirou secretly raised her head and met her gaze. He Sixian nodded.

Xu Muran entered the door, saw Xue Yinong, stepped forward to greet Xu Shutong and said, "Sister, what's going on today, I heard that something happened on the road, it's okay." ”

"It's just a little frightened, it's not in the way."

"That's good, it scares me to death."

Gao Zhirou stood aside with her head down, beating a drum in her heart, she saw Xue Yinong and Xu Shutong go out today, so she notified the brothers outside the palace and set up an ambush on the way back to the palace, I didn't expect this pair of dog men and women to be so lucky, none of them died, not even a little bruises, and their second brother was almost killed.

Why is God so short-sighted, let the bad guys live well, and let the good guys suffer so much.

Xu Muran stayed here for a while before leaving, "My sister was frightened, and I should have a good rest, so my sister won't bother." ”

"Okay, there you go!"

After the people were almost gone, Xue Yinong sat on the edge of the bed again and held Xu Shutong's hand, "You are really brave today." ”

"Without the emperor's proper arrangement, the lives of the concubines are not guaranteed, where can I see you again!"

Xue Yinong rewarded Luo Yan and Cun Cun at the moment, "You just have to say clothes, jewelry, and jewelry." ”

Cun said regretfully: "Is the emperor serious? ”

"Of course, I will never go back on my words."

"Then find a partner for the slave!"

Xue Yinong: "......" She is the emperor, not a matchmaker! Has she done this master of the marriage business? "Okay, I'll do my best, I don't know what you're looking for?"

Cun Xi replied: "Since the emperor asked, then the slave and maid said unceremoniously, the slave and maid have no requirements, just like you." ”

also said that there was no request, and the ambition was not small.

"This ...... It's not easy to find, after all, a talent like me, with clean sleeves, is absolutely not half-hearted about feelings, it's difficult! ”

I want to say, "Don't put gold on your face like this, okay?" ”

"It's okay to be a little worse than the emperor."

"Hmm!" Xue Yinong pretended to be deep, and then glanced at Luo Yan, "Luo Yan, the matter of pity is a matter of importance, and I can't make a decision lightly, so I entrust it to you to deal with, and be sure to help me find a person who has both ability and political integrity, and is a martial artist." ”

"Me?" Luo Yan pointed to herself, "Why slaves?" ”

"Didn't you say it, this matter is very important, leave it to you, it's too appropriate, what do you say?"

It's a pity that I wish I had such an opportunity to rectify the wild goose, "How embarrassing is this, Your Majesty." He said to Luo Yan again, "Then it will be troublesome for Luo Yan's sister." ”

Luo Yan said coldly: "You're welcome." "She will definitely responsibly find an ugly and lazy one, the last time I regretted but let her wash her pants for a month, this girl in order to entertain herself, change three a day, absolutely deliberate! And the color of the bag is not a serious person at first glance.

Since it was decided, Xue Yinong said: "Then you go out to discuss, I still have some private things to tell Shutong." The two got acquainted and went out.

When the two left, Xue Yinong also lay on the bed and was tired of being with Xu Shutong for a while.

"Are you tired of walking today?"

"Not tired."

"Want to sleep for a while?"

"It's okay, it's almost time to take a break. By the way, the emperor, in fact, there is something I don't understand very well. ”

Xue Yinong gave a puzzled 'um'. "Tell me about it."

"Why did you let go of Gao Zhixiao?" She believed that the young man would definitely find a way to assassinate her and Xue Yinong again, putting himself in an unsafe environment, she believed that Xue Yinong was not such a careless person, there must be something in it!

"As I said before, it is his duty to avenge his father. However, assassinating me could not completely solve the problem, using the wrong method, I gave him a chance, and also let the world know that filial piety is right, blind filial piety is wrong, if he comes again, he will ask for death, and he will not complain about me. ”

Xu Shutong knew that she didn't want to implicate the innocent, Gao Rui was Gao Rui, and Gao Zhixiao was Gao Zhixiao, but can that person understand? And this trip is not ostentatious, how did he know?

"Your Majesty, there are people in his palace, do you want to check it?"

"Don't worry, I have already instructed Li Lin to do this, let him investigate quietly, so as not to startle the snake."

Xu Shutong was relieved when he saw that she understood. smiled and said, "What about Qu Ziwen?" "The emperor injured the son of Qu Shang, the secretary of the ministry, and Lord Qu is afraid that he will not let it go so lightly.

"He has been doing evil for more than a day, and it is very easy to find evidence of his crimes, even so, I asked the Dark Guard to investigate, and get the evidence as much as possible, lest people know that it is me and start destroying it all. This Qu Shang dares to be so arrogant, I'm afraid that there is someone behind him, I just want to see who is behind him this time. ”

"The emperor's concerns are far-reaching, and I can't do it. Since you have everything in your heart, then I am relieved, so do you still want to take the mandarin duck bath tonight? ”

"Wash, of course."

Xu Shutong couldn't stop laughing and scratched Xue Yinong's nose. The emperor is really a greedy bad thing!

Let's say that after Xue Yinong and the others went, they left a mess. Qu Ziwen's palm was pierced by chopsticks and he couldn't move. When everyone saw Xue Yinong and the others walking away, they stepped forward and asked, "Childe, how are you, do your hands hurt?" ”

Qu Ziwen scolded: "Bastard, why don't you try it and see if it hurts?" My fingers have been broken, where is my father's death, please ask the doctor to come over. ”

He can't go back like this.

The people lifted the table, and the tables were sent back one by one. In front of him, Qu Shang came over with the officers and soldiers, and when he saw his son's miserable appearance, he had no words to scold in his heart.

"Ziwen, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing his father, Qu Ziwen's grievances in his heart were even better. "Dad, my son is hurting to death, it's that villain who bullied me, no, it's bullying you, people say that the official book is a fart, and the official book is worse than dung, dad, you have to find a way to avenge your son's blood hatred!"

Qu Shang's beard turned up when he heard this, "Bold, which dog thief dares to hurt my son for no reason, and dares to insult the court officials." ”

When the servants heard this, they all lowered their heads, because Xue Yinong didn't say this, it was obvious that Qu Ziwen wanted him Lao Tzu to stand up for him and use words to provoke him.

"Dad, don't be in a hurry to punish, hurry up and invite a doctor for me, otherwise my son's hand will be wasted, how can I give you a pension in the future......"

Qu Shang glared at Qu Ziwen, and the dog couldn't spit out ivory from his mouth, which was a curse for dying early. If it weren't for this one bastard boy, he would have to be killed.

"Okay, go back first, and ask the doctor to heal."

Everyone returned to Shangshu Mansion together, invited the doctor to come over, took off his chopsticks, re-shaped his bones, bandaged them properly, and used medicine.

When Mrs. Qu saw her son suffering such grievances, she cried and scolded her mother. "Whoever has no conscience dares to hurt my son like this, he is looking impatient."

took someone over and asked, and said that it was three women and one man, and they looked very good, and the son fell in love with other people's little ladies and said that they were flirting in the past.

Mrs. Qu only hated Xue Yinong, and didn't know who she was, so she first greeted the eighteenth generation of her ancestors, and Qu was still by her side, and she was very tired of her wife.

"Okay, stop arguing, let me think about what to do, my son's sin can't be in vain."

Mrs. Qu said: "Yes, I must arrest the one who killed a thousand knives, and I can repay the hatred in my heart by breaking the corpse into thousands of pieces." ”

The next day, Qu Shang heard rumors in the palace that the emperor had been assassinated, and he inevitably went to greet him, and he remembered that the servants at home said that the appearance of those men and women was very consistent with Xue Yinong. I couldn't help but feel cold sweat on my forehead.

It was Xue Yinong who beat his son, the current emperor. Qu Shang was extremely uncalm in his heart, afraid that Xue Yinong would be held responsible, and he was nervous this day, but fortunately, Xue Yinong seemed to be a nobody, he barely survived the day, and after he went back, he was beaten by his wife again, and couldn't help but say angrily: "You gave birth to this unfortunate thing, and you still have the face to shout and kill here, and it is the emperor who offends the rebel." ”

When Mrs. Qu heard this, her face turned pale, and her voice didn't reach the bottom of her throat. I shudder at the thought of the consequences. "Master, you said that the emperor ...... No, we can't wait for death, you haven't been doing things for the prince, so you hurry up and write a letter now, so that he can find a way to save you! ”

"If you want you to say, I've already written." Qu Shang called out to the butler and asked him to immediately send a letter to King Jingjing.

A few days later, the Jingjing Palace received urgent letters from the capital, and passed them to Xue Qingqiu one by one.

He was talking to his confidants in the hall when there was a knock on the door and a letter in his hand.

"Lord Wang, from the capital."

After Xue Qingqiu read the letter, his face couldn't help but sink. "This Qu Shang is too careless."

Xu Muran was on the side and asked, "Lord Wang, is there an accident in the capital?" He was worried about his sister's safety and was afraid of receiving bad news from her.

"Look at it."

Xue Qingqiu handed the letter to Xu's staff, Xu Muran read it, and knew that his sister was not relieved in advance. "What is the prince going to do, is he going to give up Qu Shang? He has been loyal to the prince for so many years. ”

"Of course this king knows, that's why he is so angry, and losing him is like losing his arm. It's just that he has always been able to do things, but he has raised a son who can't make a difference, and now the emperor may find him, but I don't know, here is far away from the capital, and many things we just got the news here, and it has changed over there. If Qu Shang is finished, he will have to confess our affairs, and everyone will almost be finished by then. ”

Xu Muran said: "According to the prince's meaning, this is to save him." ”

"What if you don't save it? It's just that this king can't quench his thirst here, and even if he has an idea, he can't withstand the rapid changes, so he still has to find a way to go to the capital. ”

"But...... Without the emperor's order, you can go to the capital at will, I'm afraid it's not appropriate! ”

"Then find a way."

Xu Muran said in a deep voice: "It seems that you can only use that." ”

Xue Qingqiu nodded, because he also thought of what Xu Muran was going to say.

The henchmen present looked at each other one by one, not knowing what they were discussing. Xue Qingqiu said: "Invite him out!" The housekeeper went, and after a while, he brought out a person, who was wearing a royal robe, no different from Xue Qingqiu, and everyone almost thought they were dazzled when they saw it.

Someone said: "Lord Wang, what is this?" ”

Xue Qingqiu sneered: "This is the stand-in of this king, and there are many such stand-ins for this king." "This time, I invited the master of counterfeiting to come over, and not only created a fake sparse shadow, but also created a lot of stand-ins.

Find some dead soldiers of similar stature and pretend to be yourself.

"This king has an idea to go to the capital in person, but there can't be no one here, in case the people who are monitored by the emperor see the clues, it will be inappropriate. When the king is gone, take half of the people with you, and leave half to assist the false king, and you must do your best, as if the king were there, and do not be disdainful, so that people may see the clues. ”

The crowd answered, "Yes." ”

Xue Qingqiu packed up some things, and set off for the capital the next day, hoping that it would be too late.

Regarding Qu Shang's matter, Xue Yinong did not move lightly, and did not even show any traces to check him, the longer the time, the matter was as if it had not happened.

One night a month later.

Xue Yinong read the book for a while and lay down, and was about to go to bed, when someone knocked on the door hurriedly and shouted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......."

Xue Yinong raised his head and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"The people over there from Zhiqiu Yuan came to report that Xiao Jieyu had a stomachache, and she was afraid that she was going to give birth, so she informed the emperor."

Where was Xue Yinong still sleepy, she got dressed and woke Xu Shutong up again. Xu Shutong said: "What's the matter, it's so late." As he spoke, he yawned twice.

"Xiao Jieyu is about to give birth, I'll go and see, you continue to sleep."

"Going to give birth?" Xu Shutong heard that he was almost awake, "Then I'll go over and take a look." ”

"Aren't you sleeping?"

"I really want to see the kids." She is curious about what it is like to have a child born.

"Okay, let's go together."

Luo Yan listened to what Cunxi said, and also followed, and the four of them went almost quietly.

When he arrived at Zhiqiu Garden, Meng Sui hugged a fist, got out of the way, and waited for the four of them to enter, and guarded as before.

Zhiqiuyuan's patrols were more frequent than usual.

The house was brightly lit and shining as if it were day. The palace maids and eunuchs shuttled, either you bumped into him, or he bumped into you, everyone apologized to each other and continued to be busy.

The midwives had already been invited, and now they were all pulled up to deliver the babies, boiling water.

Seeing Xue Yinong coming, everyone still wants to say goodbye.

"No, you guys do it!"

Zhigen came out to see Xue Yinong, and ran inside to tell Xiao Fang, "Niangniang, the emperor has come to see you." Xiao Fang's sideburns were already soaked because of stomach pain, and Wen Po was giving her bird's nest porridge.

"Niangniang, eat some quickly, and you will have the strength to have a child later."

Xiao Fang ate a few bites indiscriminately, and screamed non-stop. "It hurts, it hurts." She almost fainted in pain.

Lin Honglian was on her side, constantly encouraging her. "Mother, don't scream, be careful of being heard. Don't scream, if you run out of strength, you won't be able to have children. ”

"Imperial Doctor Lin...... "Xiao Fang doesn't know what to say, this imperial doctor has been with him until today, if he gives birth to a child this time, there will be three long and two short. When she thought of this, she was afraid for a while, "If something happens to me, child, you will take care of the child." She also knew that she was going too far, knowing that Lin Honglian seemed to treat her differently, but she kept pretending not to know.

She is a woman, and a woman's heart is thinner than a needle. How could you not see what was going on with Lin Honglian? But she couldn't respond, and now she has to leave the child to her.

"No, Niangniang, you and the child will be fine, don't worry, there are Weichen here! I won't let you have any problems. They shook each other's hands, closer than ever, Xiao Fang almost pinched Lin Honglian's hand to blood.

Xue Yinong came in, and Xiao Fang's hand was released.

Lin Honglian was lost for a while, but quickly adjusted her feelings, she turned around and said, "Your Majesty, you are here, this place is not suitable for you." ”

"I know, I want to say a few words to Xiao Jieyu, and I'll leave as soon as I finish speaking." Standing beside Xiao Fang, looking at her wolf and weak appearance, Xue Yinong couldn't bear it a little, "Don't be afraid, I am here, the sky will fall for you, I will keep you safe and sound, and the child will grow up." ”

Xiao Fang's eyes were a little wet, and she looked at Xue Yinong in disbelief, "But ......"

"No, but, what I said is a qiē, rest assured!" These words were like a brainless fly, clueless, but a few people in the know understood that this was Xue Yinong's promise, and he would not embarrass the child or the adult.

Xiao Fang burst into tears, "Thank you to the emperor for your success." ”

"Okay, you can have a baby in peace, I am waiting for your good news outside." Xiao Fang nodded.

After Xue Yinong came out, Xu Shutong greeted her and held her hand, a little nervous. "Your Majesty, how is Xiao Jieyu now?"

"It's okay, it's fine." She smiled slightly, took Xu Shutong in her arms, and waited for the news. From time to time, there were screams in the house, and the voice of the stable woman, until half an hour later, the child's cry broke through the tense atmosphere.

Xu Shutong almost jumped up, "Raw, born." That joy, as a mother, she can also empathize, and immediately broke free from Xue Yinong's embrace and wanted to go in and take a look.

Xue Yinong grabbed her, "When they're done, you can go in again." ”

After a while, the door opened. The palace maid brought out a few basins of blood and water, and a smell of blood came to their nostrils, and when they entered, the room had been cleaned up, and Xiao Jieyu's bedding had been cleaned.

Wen Po held the child in her hand, the child was wrapped in a small quilt, it was late autumn, the night was very cold, the child was crying non-stop, and the little eyes couldn't be opened.

Xue Yinong stretched out his hand and said, "Let me hug it." ”

The Wen Po moved extremely carefully, "Your Majesty, the child is still young, you should move lightly." ”

"Don't worry."

Xue Yinong looked at a small person, his face was wrinkled, his eyes were squinting slightly, and he smacked his mouth.

Xu Shutong was also watching from the side, and he didn't like it. "It turns out that this is what the newborn child looks like."

The child turned his head and wanted to rely on Xue Yinong. Xue Yinong is like a fire man, and the child seems to feel the warmth, and leans straight into her arms!

Xue Yinong smiled, "He likes me, by the way, it's a boy or a girl." ”

Xiao Fang's head looked at them, but her hand held the quilt tightly, she still had some residual strength, and she also wanted to take a look at the child. But when she heard this, her head began to dizzy.

Wen Po said: "Congratulations to the emperor, it's a princess!" ”

Xiao Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

Xue Yinong teased the child, "It's a princess, haha." Yes, I will give you a name, your mother's surname is Xiao, is it okay to call you Xiao Gongju? "It's not like a girl's name, but no one has corrected Xue Yinong, anyway, what the emperor said is right. Xue Yinong smiled and said, "Xiao Gongju, it sounds like a 'little princess', isn't it cute?" Xiao Gongju, do you like it? She asked the child, who closed his eyes and smacked his lips without speaking, "If you don't object, then I will say yes." ”

Of course, how can a newborn child speak out against it. The rest of the people thought in their hearts, the emperor was really confused.

Xu Shutong was beside him, and he was impatient to wait for a long time and wanted to hug him. Xue Yinong handed it to her carefully, the child's bones are soft, don't be broken.

Xu Shutong hugged him for a long time and loved it very much, "The eyes are small, the nose is small, the mouth is small, the hands are soft, and there are small nails, but they look a little ugly." ”

"It's like this when you're just born, and it's round after a few days." Wen Po interjected beside her.

"Is that so?"

Xue Yinong looked at Xiao Fang, saw that her eyes were burning, and she looked at the child very expectantly and longingly, but refused to speak. This is tabooing himself, Xue Yinong hugged Xiao Gongju from Xu Shutong's hand, and said to her: "The child hasn't hugged it yet!" Come, Xiao Jieyu hug one. ”

She held the child and didn't let go, afraid that Xiao Fang would be weak after giving birth and have no strength in her hands, Xiao Fang saw it and touched it.

"She's healthy."

"Of course, it looks like you, it's beautiful."

"I can't see anything yet, she's too small, so small."

Xue Yinong put the child on Xiao Fang's pillow and covered it with a quilt, "The child will be handed over to you in the future, and no one will take her away, is this okay?" Don't give it to anyone to take over, the child grows up on your breast milk. ”

In other words, it is impossible to transfer to the name of Xu Shutong, or the name of the queen, and you can guard the child every day.

Xiao Fang's eyes were wet again, and she nodded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xue Yinong turned to the person in the room and said: "I don't want anyone to say this quickly, if anyone is bad, they will be killed." ”

Everyone only promised, and the one who was willing to die was fine.

I've been here for a long time, and Xue Yinong thought that Xu Shutong had also spent a lot of energy, so it was better to go back first, and it wouldn't be too late to come back tomorrow to see the child.
