In the spring of the fourth year of Hongzhi, the Empress Dowager Xiao of Liangyu passed away, and the whole country mourned. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It is the time when spring is full of joy, it just rained last night, the yard is wet, the bluestone slab is shining with water, and the apricot blossoms have fallen to the ground.

A woman walked out under the eaves, dressed in a goose-yellow spring shirt, looking beautiful. The woman's belly was bulging, one hand propped up on her waist, and she looked to be seven months old.

A maid beside him carefully supported him and walked out slowly.

"Dong Ling, how many days has he been there?"

"Uncle has only been gone for six days."

"Six," she repeated in a low voice, not as if asking, but sure, "but why do I think so much time has passed?" ”

The maid smiled and helped her down the steps, "Miss be careful with your step, the ground is slippery." She raised her head again and smiled, "Miss is worried in her heart, she has never been separated from her uncle in the past year, so naturally she hasn't seen her for three days." ”

Tang Guxi didn't smile, and walked forward step by step.

She paused and looked at the pavilion not far ahead, "Let's go up, I want to sit for a while." ”

Dong Ling nodded and instructed the maid who followed behind to take care of it. The so-called care is to lay a mattress on the stone bench and put refreshments on the stone table.

Since the young lady was pregnant, the first few days were fine, but the next few days I couldn't bear the loneliness, and I had to come out every day to relax, and the small pavilion became the most frequent place to go. It's just that it's raining today, so you have to be careful.

For six days, she stayed in her room, either asleep or reading, and the biggest movement was to go out and sit under the porch for a while. As for coming out and walking around again like today, it's the first time.

It's no wonder that the two have not been separated since they got married, and in just six days, isn't it unaccustomed to her?

But now that Miss has come out today, she has recovered slightly, at least, she seems to be in a better mood than she was two days ago. Miss Dong Lingfu sat down and smiled.

"Do you think I'm useless like this?"

Dong Ling was startled and hurriedly said, "How come?" What are you talking about...... Miss?"

How dare she say that the young lady is unproductive? Even if he just called Miss, the owner of this garden is also amiable and has no real name and power, but who doesn't know that the three people who live in it are all linked to the highest person in the palace?

Therefore, the things in it are similar to the service of those princes and nobles, but there are not so many rules. But the least respect remains.

Seeing Dong Ling's panicked appearance, Tang Guxi couldn't help laughing: "You don't have to be nervous, I won't eat you...... Say, "Have I felt sorry for you since you came to serve me?" ”

Dong Ling opened her eyes and shook her head again and again.

"Isn't that enough?" Tang Guxi smiled and retracted his gaze, "I just think that the current appearance doesn't seem to be like what I used to be......"

In the past, she was a flying horse, ignorant and fearless, and walked all over the land of the five countries with a long sword in her hand. I have also experienced the departure of my dearest and most loved ones, and I have seen the ups and downs of life and death, big and small...... But it has never been like today, idle, quiet, not boring, it seems that everything is not slow, but I always care about that person.

No, I've never been so relieved about him before?

But why, why is this time so restless?

She looked down at her abdomen, put her other hand on it, and patted it gently. His eyes were slightly distracted, staring at the flowers and trees and grass not far away, silent for a long time.

Child, child, you must bless your father with a safe and sound return of Liangyu.

and the Empress Dowager Xiao in the sky...... Queen Mother, Gu Xi is inconvenient and can't go to see you off for the last time, can you forgive me?

She looked up at the blue sky, her gaze swept over the eaves of the pavilion, and paddled towards the blue sky where the white clouds floated. The sky was so good that I wanted to cry......

Queen Mother, I want to give you a ride.

She remembered that when she first stepped into the palace and was led to the cold palace by Su Yin, in that dark and simple hut, she saw Concubine Xiao lying on the bed in such a miserable state, and the shock and fear in her heart were indescribable.

Thinking about it now, although she is not Su Chen's mother, she is the one who raised him single-handedly. So she understood Su Chen's worry and anxiety, and also understood his despondency, depression and panic that day - if it weren't for her, he could have returned to Liangyu a year earlier, and he could see the Queen Mother for the last time.

But now, it's too late to say anything.

Fortunately, most of his illness has been cured, and he doesn't need to run to Phoenix every month, so he can go to see the Queen Mother off with peace of mind.

Outside the pavilion, the sound of dripping rain sounded again, a curtain of water fell, and the vision became hazy.

As a maid who has been in for a year, Dong Ling has more or less heard about their past, so she knows a lot about this gentle master.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but laugh again: "Miss is really joking, it's different, it's naturally different, you have to be a mother, how can it be compared with when you were a girl before?" ”

When I was a girl in the past, Miss, you crossed the mountains and mountains, took a boat and ferry, and also mobilized the palace military horses to secretly communicate with the gangs in the rivers and lakes, no matter how big the formation can be turned up by you, now the peaceful and prosperous era in Xizhou, I don't know how much is due to Miss You?

But now, it's different.

Now that you have nothing to worry about, you have a family and have children, and your curiosity and impulse to face the outside world have decreased accordingly, and only your husband and children, as well as the mother at home, are left in your eyes.

At most, there are probably a few friends you often talk about, but never meet...... Nothing else.

It's just that those friends have been getting less and less often mentioned by Miss recently.

"yes, it can't be compared to when I was a girl." Tang Guxi sighed lightly.

As soon as the words fell, there was a noise at the gate of the moon, and Tang Guxi and Dong Ling turned their heads.

"Sister Jade Cicada, Miss is on the pavilion."

"It's raining so heavily, why do you let the young lady go to the pavilion?"

“…… Be...... The young lady was going there herself, and it hadn't rained yet, so—"

"So you're saying it's Miss's fault?" The woman's voice couldn't help but become fierce, "She's pregnant now, if something goes wrong, it's strange that my uncle won't punish you when he comes back." ”

"My uncle will never punish people......"

"Are you relying on your uncle's temperament to bully you? Let me tell you, if something happens to the young lady, my uncle will change his face greatly. Don't always think that the young lady has relatives in the palace, so you don't dare to slack off, if there is a mistake on the uncle's side, he can still turn the world upside down, no one should underestimate him......"

Tang Guxi couldn't help frowning, and said angrily: "How did this jade cicada become messy and unruly when she got married?" I've never seen her so spicy when I'm here before. is so noisy, are you afraid that others will look down on Zheng Qing? ”

Although he complained, he still smiled the moment he saw the jade cicada turn around.

"Pour her tea." She instructed Dong Ling.
