Dai Qin didn't say anything, but there was a sad look on his face, but Jiu Niang helped me up and said with a little comfort, "Concubine, I advise you to look away." The child is here, and it is fate with you, if you really can't keep it, you can't be too sad, at least you still have the emperor's favor, and you won't have any other children in the future. Look at me, married Huizu, and lived happily for less than two years, he ended up like this, I thought that since our couple did not have the life of official luck, then just keep the rest of the family business and live a safe and stable life, who would have thought that he would have this disease? When I first found out, I was even more sad than you are now, washing my face with tears every day, think about it, if you don't have a princess, at most you can be regarded as a firstborn child, what about me? If there is no Huizu, then there is a dead husband, our children are without a father, and our Xu Mansion is without a pillar. He is now no longer treated by the emperor, and he is a criminal minister, for me, it is all the same existence as the sky, without him, the sky is gone, what am I still alive for? But I've been guarding him day by day, and I've been guarding him for almost two years now, and I'm like. It seems to be ......" Jiu Niang's voice was a little choked, she suddenly stopped, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, raised a handsome face and looked at me again, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, "After guarding it for so long, I seem to have been mentally prepared, if he is really gone one day in the future, I still have to continue to live like this, for the sake of the Xu family, for the children who have no adults, and for my own father and mother......"

She sighed heavily, because of the sympathy, she slowly reduced her hostility towards me and sympathized more, but I listened to her words, but my heart became colder and colder, a few days ago, my crescent moon was still fine, a few days later, but someone told her that she was suffering from the plague, in danger, life and death were uncertain, how strong a heart do I have to accept such a fact?

My tears were like beads with broken threads, and Jiu Niang also had red eyes and patted me on the back, "We're going back, we've been staying for a long time, and the queen will be suspicious." ”

Dai Qin hurriedly took out a few pills from his arms, "These packets are taken by yourself, because I know how much about your illness, so I prepared the medicine in advance, here is a pack, it is a pack of epidemic prevention pills that I brought with me when I opened it, you sent it to the people in the palace to eat, and then use hot water to grind two pills, feed the princess, I will go out of the palace with Mrs. Xu now, I will immediately dispense the medicine, and bring it in tomorrow." ”

I nodded, didn't speak, and the two of them just left. I held the crescent moon in my arms, trembling with fear, would I lose the crescent moon like this?

Even Dai Qin didn't dare to give me a word.

Zhu Di, Zhu Di He is thousands of miles away in a flooded place at this time, can he expect me and the crescent moon to be so aggrieved in the palace? He knows that his little princess, her life hangs by a thread, maybe, he can't even see his father's last face?

Zhu Di ...... Zhu Di ...... "I was crying and muttering his name, but it was just to the void, and it was useless.

Zhu'er has already divided the pills for everyone to eat according to what Dai Qin said, and also opened two pills, took the crescent moon from my hand, and fed it with a spoon of difficulty, the pills were bitter, and as the water entered the mouth of the crescent moon, she cried, choking while crying, Zhu'er patiently fed it over and over again, and sang folk songs gently in her mouth, but I couldn't bear to look at it more painfully.

Forced into half a bowl of milk, the crescent moon finally slowly fell asleep after the tired struggle, the little face was thin from the torture of the disease, but the innocence of the child made her not too sick, just sleeping. Zhu'er was afraid that the crescent moon would give me sickness, so she ordered someone to move the cradle to the head of the bed, so that the crescent moon could sleep in the cradle and no longer go to bed.

Zhu'er finished coaxing the crescent moon, and went to boil the medicine that Daiqin brought to me without touching the ground, the small kitchen did not let go, there was no cook, and there was not much firewood left, Zhu'er moved some of the remaining firewood into the room, put it in the stove, used a tea hanger to cook the medicine, and held a pu fan in her hand and kept fanning.

After Bao'er Chu'er was detained by the queen, she was the only one in the Lianyi Palace who was the most powerful, and the people around her were outside, and I didn't dare to trust anyone easily. She has always been a hard-working character, and she has not complained. At this time, she sat on the small pestle with her head down, except for the hand that shook the fan, the other hand supported her chin, and her head kept pointing down---- she was too tired and dozing.

I wanted to call her to go to bed, and I knew her temper, if I woke up, not only would I not go to bed, but I was afraid that I wouldn't even want to doze off, so I let her stagger, but I carefully stared at the fire, for fear that she would overturn.

Worried about something, she couldn't sleep well, and after a while, she woke up and said, "Oh, why did you fall asleep like this, Niangniang, are you okay?" ”

I nodded, "I'm fine, you finish the medicine, go to sleep quickly." ”

Zhu'er ignored me, and quickly brought the medicine to me, and after forcing me to drink it, she took the small pestle and sat down at the head of the bed.

"What are you sitting here doing?" I asked in a low voice.

Zhu'er replied softly, "Shhh, be quiet, the princess has fallen asleep so easily, the mother and daughter are sick, and there is no one who can't do it at night." ”

I smiled bitterly, "Then you can't stay up like this, you're about to get sick, Bao'er hasn't been rescued yet, if you fall down again, then it's better to take a rope and strangle me." Come up, then, and sleep with me. ”

Zhu'er listened to my words, twisted for a long time, and knew that there were still many days of hard work, so it was not a problem to survive like this, so she took off her coat and slept outside the bed, and also gave one hand to shake the cradle from time to time, "This is good for taking care of the princess at night." ”

I said "um", I couldn't open my eyes, the medicine Dai Qin gave me has always been added with tranquilizers, and I want to sleep after drinking it. When I woke up, it was not as bright as I imagined, and I had countless nightmares in fear, but I didn't even survive the night, and it was still dark. If everything is a nightmare now, this dream is too long.

Half of Zhu'er's body was outside the quilt, leaning in the direction of the cradle, and at a glance, she knew that she had been thinking about the crescent moon. I sighed and closed my eyes, it wasn't a dream, it wasn't a dream after all.

Early the next morning, Dai Qin came quietly in the costume of a palace maid, I was a little surprised, he carried a food box, as soon as he entered the door, he closed the door, this wipe open the food box, only to see that it was full of medicine, "I urged Mrs. Xu to enter the palace early in the morning, she came in under the pretext of asking the queen mother, and left in about half an hour, we have to hurry." ”

When I saw that he was in a hurry, I didn't ask anything else, but listened carefully to what medicine he said, how to take it, and when to take it, and I only remembered that the last sentence was, "If these five days have passed, the princess will have nothing to do, and if she can't get through......

I didn't wait for him to finish, then said, "I remember, I'm waiting for you over there, go back quickly." ”

Dai Qin knew that I didn't dare to listen to what was going on, so he kept his mouth shut, cleaned up casually, and left with the food box.

"Zhu'er, boil the medicine." I called out to Pearl.

For three days in a row, Dai Qin's medicine was poured down a lot, but the crescent moon still had a fever day and night, and gradually he couldn't even feed the cow's milk. I had hope that no one would dare to say anything to me about what was possible. It wasn't until the fourth day, when Dai Qin was teaching Zhu'er to divide medicine, that Zhu'er fell down with a bang.

Dai Qin and I panicked, "What's going on?!" ”

Dai Qin touched Zhu'er's forehead and shouted that it was not good, I looked at the mess in the house, stood aside, and there were no tears now, "What's wrong with Bao'er?" ”

Dai Qin opened her eyes and mouth and looked at her for a moment, "She's stained." ”

I gasped and slowly retreated into my chair, "The crescent moon is dying, isn't it?" The pearl will die in front of me little by little, just like the crescent moon, won't she? ”

Dai Qin was silent for a while, "Zhu'er has just been contaminated, and it should be cured." ”

I cried out loud, all the tension and self-deception of so many days were shattered, "Zhu'er has just been contaminated, it should be cured, what about the crescent moon?" Why, why, why! The crescent moon is so small, what the hell did I do wrong, God is going to take her?! ”

Dai Qin stood aside, not knowing how to comfort me.

"No, no, I don't believe it, you tell me that the crescent moon will not die, she will be fine, and in a few days she will babble and stagger, and she will grow up little by little, become a proud and beautiful princess, and marry a handsome champion building as a concubine. Isn't it? ”

Dai Qin hung his head, not daring to look at me. It was the only time I had seen him since I met him and I didn't dare to face him. <
