A spring rain lingered for more than a day, and it didn't stop until dusk the next day.

The spring rain in March is as expensive as oil, but this rain brings not the warmth of the past, but the cold.

Murong Yichuan stubbornly walked in the rain, didn't need anyone to follow, held an umbrella for him, the fine rain blurred Murong Yichuan's eyes, and he walked aimlessly on the long corridor of the harem.

When passing by an apricot tree, Murong Yichuan stopped, this was the time when the flowers were full of branches, he remembered that he liked the apricot blossom rain the most, and whenever the rain fell on the apricot blossoms, she would pull herself or come to the apricot blossom tree alone, feeling the tenderness of the wet apricot blossom rain.

At this moment, Murong Yichuan stood quietly under the apricot blossom tree, letting the warm and humid apricot blossom rain caress his face, he reached out and plucked an apricot blossom with raindrops in his mouth and kissed it gently, as if kissing his lover.

Murong Yichuan stayed under the apricot tree for a long, long time, and by the time he returned to his dormitory with exhaustion and dampness, it was already dim.

This night, Murong Yichuan fell asleep with the continuous spring rain, saying that falling asleep was just tossing and turning back and forth on the empty bed, no matter whether he opened his eyes or closed his eyes, there was only one person in his heart - his beloved wife, Xiao Wanruo.

The consequence of Murong Yichuan's rain this time was that he contracted the wind cold, and he began to have a fever as soon as the morning dawned, so he had to push the early dynasty away, today is March 23, which belongs to the 369th day, but Murong Yichuan still pushed the court meeting helplessly.

The emperor's illness immediately shocked the inner court and the outer court, and the ministers came to visit the Taiji Palace, and the Empress Dowager Xiao also came to visit with Concubine De, and left Concubine Xiao to serve the sick.

Murong Yichuan wanted Prime Minister Zhao Hanqing and, Tongping Zhangshi Xiao Suyuan, Zhongshu Ling Xue and other prime ministers to handle government affairs, and there was no need for courtiers to serve the sick.

Although the imperial medicine Murong Yichuan still had a high fever, and he was in a coma for a while, in his dreams Murong Yichuan shouted the name of the same person more than once + Ruoruo,

Empress Dowager Xiao and Concubine De sighed vigorously on the side.

"Queen Mother, it seems that the emperor's illness is caused by missing the queen's aunt." Concubine Xiao Defei leaned on the edge of the bed and said cautiously.

Empress Dowager Xiao pondered for a moment and said expressionlessly; "It's all said that the face is in trouble, and now I finally understand."

At this time, Chu Xia came in and reported that Cao Shuyuan was out asking to see her. When Empress Dowager Xiao heard that Cao's face was even more ugly, she hurriedly sent Cao Shuyuan back in early summer.

About half an hour later, Murong Yichuan woke up from his coma, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that his queen mother was anxiously guarding his heart, "Queen mother, my son is not filial, let you worry." ”

Empress Dowager Xiao held Murong Yichuan's hand and whispered softly; "Don't say these unseemly words, if you really feel that you are not filial, get better quickly, let the mourning family and the ministers rest assured."

Murong Yichuan responded silently, and at this time, Xiao Xiangyi brought a bowl of soup to Murong Yichuan and said softly; "The emperor hasn't eaten for a day, how can the dragon body stand it, the concubine personally made a bowl of ginseng soup for the emperor."

At this time, Murong Yichuan did not have any appetite, and even in the face of Xiao Xiangyi's slender hands, he was not interested in appreciating, "I am not hungry." “

"This is the right mind, and besides, if you don't eat, how can you be cured?" Empress Dowager Xiao saw that Murong Yichuan refused to persuade her, even if this bowl of soup was not brought by Xiao Xiangyi, Empress Dowager Xiao had to persuade her, just because her baby son had not eaten for a day.

In order not to worry his mother, Murong Yichuan reluctantly agreed to use the soup, but did not let Xiangyi serve it, but took the bowl himself, and reluctantly drank half a bowl of soup with an attitude of not knowing the taste of food.

Xiao Xiangyi hurriedly took her own Spa to wipe the oil stains on the corners of Murong Yichuan's mouth due to the inadvertent fall of drinking soup, and her every move seemed very steady and gentle, and even a little cautious.

Cao Shuyuan was very annoyed because she couldn't see the emperor, and after leaving the Taiji Palace, she didn't go back to her bedroom directly, but turned around and went to Chai Guifei's Yong'an Palace.

When the concubine Chai Ruiling was still in confinement, although she knew that the emperor was sick, she was not able to visit.

Seeing the Cao family coming, Chai Ruiling asked tightly, "Where is Sister Cao from?" ”

Cao Shi took a sip of the tea sent by the palace people, and then gently put the cup on the desk before responding to Chai Ruiling, "From Taiji Palace, it's still early, and when I return to the palace, I have nothing to do and come over to see my sister, why is Princess Roushui not with my sister?" ”

Chai Ruiling was half-leaning on the bed rail, playing with a red gold toad in her hand, looking very leisurely.

"Because I don't have much milk, I reported the girl to the nurse, my sister came from Taiji Palace but saw the emperor?" Chai Ruiling said with concern.

Cao Shi smiled gently, and then said politely; "The emperor is fine, my sister doesn't need to worry."

The Cao family always has to play a beautiful self in front of Chai Ruiling, and it is very appropriate to hide his gentleness, friendliness and the fluctuating honor like floating clouds.

It is undeniable that Cao's self-esteem is inferior in front of Chai Ruiling, whose appearance and position are far above her, but she will try her best to hide her inferiority, Chai Ruiling does not know that Cao has fallen out of favor for many days without leaving the palace.

Now there is a good Concubine Xiao De in the palace, who is from the Rongguo Mansion, enters the palace as a concubine, and presides over the affairs of the six palaces on behalf of the queen, Cao Shuyuan understands that this Concubine De is not the object that she can woo, because the other party's surname is Xiao, and she is still the queen's nominal niece, even if the place and the queen's face and heart do not agree, it is impossible for Xiao Defei to stand on the same front as the surname Cao Yes or even the surname Chai Pan, from the founding of the Taizheng Republic to the present, most of the power of the harem is in the hands of the Xiao family, and they can fight each other within the Xiao family, But she will never unite with her surname to deal with her own family, which the Cao family knows better than anyone, so she can only desperately win over Chai Ruiling, who is not favored but has a noble status
