51. Black Hand
Zhu Di laughed and hugged the small meat ball into his arms, his tall body and wide arms, holding such a small thing, it became more and more small and cute. I hurriedly said, "You've been watching her for many days, why are you still robbing me at this time?" Give her back to me! ”
Zhu Di handed the child back a little shyly, with a trace of guilt in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "I've been patronizing you these days, and I haven't looked at her much, I'm ...... I'm afraid you'll leave, and I'm afraid to look at her......"
I listened to his words, and became more and more distressed about this little ball of meat, and kissed and touched it in my arms, "Her eyes are like two little crescents, let's call her crescent." Touching her long eyelashes, he said to Zhu Di.
Zhu Di nodded, "You can call it whatever you want, but the princess's title can't be arbitrary, think about it again." ”
I shook my head, "I don't have the energy now, let's think about it later, I don't want her to be a princess, just be my crescent moon." ”
While we were talking, Yue'er suddenly opened her small mouth, waved her fist and cried, I became anxious, "What's wrong?" Is she uncomfortable? ”
Zhu Di picked up the milk left by the nurse, scooped a little with a small spoon and fed it to the mouth of the crescent moon, the crescent moon stopped crying, Zhu Di smiled, "I'm hungry." ”
I saw that he was feeding interestingly, so I wanted to take it and feed it myself, but Bao'er happened to come in and gave me a bowl of boiled white fungus ginseng soup, and smiled at me, "Niangniang, don't be busy taking care of the princess first, your own body has lost too much, and you haven't eaten for so many days, so drink some ginseng soup to boost your breath, and then eat some porridge slowly later." ”
Zhu Di listened to Bao'er's words, and hurriedly said, "Bao'er is right, don't toss, take care of yourself first, you are still in confinement first, you must take care of your body." ”
I laughed at Zhu Di and said, "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law." So he took the ginseng soup and drank it---- I was indeed very hungry.
A bowl of ginseng soup in the stomach, I felt that my body was warm, Zhu Di had already fed the crescent moon milk with his own hands, the little girl was full of food and drink, so she opened a pair of dark eyes and looked around, I saw her like this, it was really cute, so I approached and said, "Crescent moon, I am my mother." ”
Zhu Di smiled, "She doesn't have any eyesight yet, so she can't see you." ”
I was stunned, and when I went back to look at the crescent moon, I did see that although her eyes were clear, she didn't look around, but just looked around with the sounds of adults. "Seems to be true."
"Of course it's true, newborn babies only get an inch a day of eyesight." also came over, looked at the crescent moon with love, and said softly, "She is really like you." ”
I looked at the crescent moon again, looked up and asked, "Is it really like that?" Why can't I see it? ”
Zhu Di smiled, "Don't look at her yet, you just woke up, except for a bowl of white fungus soup, there is nothing in your stomach, let's go drink some porridge first." ”
I looked up and saw that Bao'er had already brought in a bowl of thick eight-treasure porridge, with a few extremely light side dishes, because I didn't have any strength in my body, so Bao'er brought me a small table at the bedside and put all the porridge dishes on the small table. I just saw the crescent moon, and I was reluctant to leave immediately, so I ordered Bao'er to take care of it on the side, and ate it myself, Zhu Di saw that I was struggling to hook my body, so he picked up the porridge bowl and fed me spoonful.
Bao'er teased the crescent moon while pursing her lips and laughing at the two of us, Zhu Di fed me a whole bowl of porridge, and accompanied me for a while, seeing that I was still unwilling to put down the crescent moon, he straightened his face, "I'm leaving, there are still several things waiting for me to do, and when I'm all done, I'll come back to accompany you." You have already seen the crescent moon, and the reunion is not on this day, so send it back to the nurse first, the most important thing for you now is to take care of your body. ”
I looked at the crescent moon that was taken away by Bao'er, and the tears couldn't help but fall down, Zhu Di still had a fierce face, but when he saw me like this, he couldn't be fierce again, and walked back to me and hugged me, "Hug you again, be good, obedient, okay?" ”
I also knew that I wouldn't have the energy to take care of the crescent moon for a while, as long as I nodded and acquiesced, Bao'er dared to leave with the crescent moon when she saw me nodding, I hurriedly sweated her, "Wait a minute." ”
Bao'er reluctantly stopped and walked to my side, "What else does Niangniang command?" Don't worry, the little princess is well taken care of, and the slave is now holding it, which is much heavier than when she was born. ”
I looked at her like a child begging for a toy, "Let me kiss it again." ”
Bao'er and Zhu Di both laughed, put the crescent moon to my lips, and let me kiss me a few times before finally going out, Zhu Di waited for a while, and waited until Bao'er came back before going out.
Seeing Zhu Di leaving, Zhu'er also came in, the two of them knelt on the couch in front of the bed, looked at me again and again, their eyes were a little moist, Bao'er said, "Niangniang, you don't know how worried you have been in a coma for so many days, we are all afraid...... Bah, Niangniang is blessed with a great life, and the princess is also a blessed star from the sky, and she will get better in the future. ”
Zhu'er also choked up and said, "These days, the emperor led the imperial doctor to take care of you personally, the slave maid was clumsy, and the mother had been in a coma, and she didn't dare to interfere, the slave and maid begged the Buddha to bless the mother every day, but fortunately, the Buddha heard the prayer of the slave and the maid, and the slave and maid were ready to repay the vow!" ”
Seeing the true feelings of these two girls who have followed me for many years at this time, I was also very moved, these people are my concern, my relatives, I also moistened my eyes, held their hands and said, "Everything is fine, you all have to be fine." ”
Bao'er wiped her tears and said, "Niangniang entrusted the emperor with this life, and it is not in vain." The emperor doesn't think about tea and dinner these days, and he is almost undressed and accompanies him here every day, so the emperor, who is diligent in government and loves the people, has even let go of court affairs. ”
"Huh?" I glanced at Bao'er, "The emperor hasn't paid attention to the affairs of the court these days?" ”
"The first three days didn't even go to the early court, and he didn't close his eyes and stayed in the Lianyi Palace for a single step without leaving, and then there was a Yanchen who advised him, and he only went to the early court every day, and brought all the folds here, while looking at the mother and reviewing it." Boa said.
I felt a chill in my heart, if this is the case, then no wonder Zhu Di left in a hurry not long after I woke up, and he was afraid that he would bear an unknown amount of infamy for me at this time.
"Has anyone ever been here to look for the emperor?"
"Where can the courtiers enter the harem? But this morning, the queen mother came and knelt in our palace and waited for the emperor for a long time before the emperor went out to see her. ”
"What did you say?"
Bao'er and Zhu'er glanced at each other and shook their heads, "The emperor and queen have a conversation, where do we dare to eavesdrop, besides, the queen mother came this time, thinking that she was entrusted by the courtiers and took off her hairpin clothes, she must have come to persuade the emperor to abandon her mother and manage political affairs." ”
I nodded, "I know, I'm a little tired, I want to rest for a while, Bao'er, you go down first to do other things, Zhu'er stayed to beat my legs for me, maybe I've slept for a long time, and my legs are very numb." ”
Bao'er obeyed the order and retreated, Zhu'er lifted the quilt and gently pounded it for me, I closed my eyes slightly, thought for a long time, and then said, "Okay, are you tired, don't beat it anymore." ”
Zhu'er smiled, "It's okay, I'm not tired, these days when Niangniang is lying down, the emperor also turns over and pinches her arms and legs for Niangniang every day, for fear that Niangniang's torso will shrink." ”
When she mentioned Zhu Di, I couldn't help but smile, but soon my face sank again, and I asked Zhu'er seriously, "That day, let's go to Kunning Palace to enjoy the plums, and I went in to see the three Qimei, do you remember?" ”
Zhu'er nodded, "The slave and maid remember, at that time, the slave and maid were separated from the mother, and the mothers of each palace were there, and they formed a circle, and the slave and maid did not dare to squeeze with them, so they thought that the mother would come out after reading it, and they waited outside the circle of people." ”
"Do you remember who was standing behind me?"
Zhu'er lowered her head and thought for a long time, "Cao Niangniang...... Lu Niangniang...... Liu Niangniang ......" After a while, Zhu'er cried and said with a sad face, "There were too many people at that time, and I didn't expect Niangniang to fall inside, so I didn't pay attention to who was there." ”
I breathed a sigh of relief, "I know everything, you can go down too, I'll be alone for a while." ”
Zhu'er was stunned, but she didn't leave as I said. She is a very obedient girl, and has an extreme loyalty to her master, usually to me to say the same, today this reaction is a bit out of line, I looked at her, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Zhu'er gritted her teeth and said with hatred on her face, "Niangniang, did someone push you from behind?" As she said this, her eyes were already flashing with hatred, but her character had always been weak, and this hatred showed not murderous aura in her eyes, but crystal tears.
I was stunned for a long time before I said, "Why do you ask that?" ”
"We all know that Niangniang practiced martial arts as a young man, although he was injured on the battlefield and his body was damaged and no longer practiced martial arts, but his body was still much better than ordinary people, but he was nine months pregnant, and he was a little slower, and he would not fall like that when he saw a plum blossom. The slave and maid had been suspicious for many days, but all the women present that day were girls, and the slave and maid did not see anything with their own eyes, so they did not dare to talk nonsense. Zhu'er bit her lip and said.
I'm a little speechless, even a person as honest as Zhu'er can figure out this truth, so shrewd as Zhu Di, did he guess it a long time ago?
I stood in front of those beautiful plum blossoms that day, I wanted to open my eyes and see for a long time, but before I could get closer, I was pushed down by the black hand that stretched out from behind me, at that time I was already with a nine-month-old belly, and my body was very stupid, so I lost my balance in an instant and fell to the ground.
At that time, some people exclaimed, and some people were busy pulling me, but I was so stunned that I couldn't see who was pulling me. was brought back here in such a daze, and after experiencing those terrible things, the last foot stepped into the ghost gate, until now I finally woke up. <
