was cleaning up, hearing the sound of the temple door being gently pushed open, Su Xin listened to the eunuch guarding the door outside and didn't make a sound, thinking that it was Ying'er and they turned back for a while, but when they came out to see, it was Zhu Yuanzhang who slipped in from the empty palace door, and when he saw Su Xin looking at him, he hurriedly made a silent gesture and beckoned to Su Xin.

Su Xin nodded knowingly, walked over to salute, and Zhu Yuanzhang asked softly, "How long have you been asleep?" Su Xin replied: "Half an hour." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and Su Xin saw that he didn't mean to go in, so he asked, "Your Majesty went to Concubine Shu's place?" When Niangniang was just sleeping, a little girl from Shou'an Palace came to ask to see her, and the slave was afraid of disturbing Niangniang, so she asked the little eunuch to send her back. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, and asked with a little anger: "Does your mother know about it?" Su Xin shook his head, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "It's okay if I don't know, I went to Shou'an Palace, let them have a long memory, and don't make waves as soon as they are grounded." There is only one queen in this palace, and there can only be one queen, and anyone who dares to calculate, I will not sit idly by. ”

Su Xin agreed, and then asked, "Your Majesty, will you go in and rest?" Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while: "Now that she is asleep, I still go to sleep on the couch, you take two futons and give them to me." I'm waiting here, you've taken care of me and I'm in there. ”

Su Xin first put the unfinished small table to the ground, laid the futon on the couch, and put a new charcoal basin in front of the couch before coming out to invite Zhu Yuanzhang, but saw Zhu Yuanzhang sitting on the steps and falling asleep with his hands on the railing. Su Xin called him gently, and he woke up and smiled awkwardly: "How did you fall asleep?" Have you taken care of it? Su Xin nodded with a smile and helped him up, Zhu Yuanzhang shook his elbow: "It's numb after a while." ”

"The weather is cold, and there is no charcoal fire outside, Your Majesty is full of blood, and it is only numb to sleep like this, if the slave maid is crooked like this for a while, I am afraid that it will be typhoid fever." Su Xin helped him knock and knead his elbows and said with a smile.

"It's okay, let's go inside." As soon as he raised his foot, he asked, "Then how do you sleep every night on duty?" Su Xin smiled: "Put on a jacket and sit on the futon, leaning against the door of the inner room and messing around all night." Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while: "If the war slows down a little today, although taxes are exempted, the money for charcoal fire will still come out." You have served the queen for so many years, you can light a charcoal fire on night duty in the future, or go in to watch the night, don't be frugal and freeze carefully. ”

After speaking, he went in lightly and lightly, and went to the bed gently, but after half a cup of tea, his breathing gradually became heavy and snoring. Su Xin took out the small table, cleaned it up and put it back on the ground, took the futon and jacket, sorted out the curtain in the inner room, and still sat on the ground to keep vigil.

When I was about to fall asleep in a daze, I heard Ah Xiu moaning inside, and Su Xin woke up suddenly, got up and went into the house to see Ah Xiu. Lifting the bed tent, seeing Ah Xiu open her eyes and frowning slightly, she asked, "Niangniang is awake?" Under the weather? Ah Xiu nodded: "The waist and abdomen are a little sore, but it's okay, but the mouth is very dry." ”

Su Xin hurriedly went to the charcoal fire and took a silver teapot, poured a cup of warm water in it and held it to Ah Xiu: "Niangniang drink saliva." Ah Xiu took a few sips sideways, and then lay down again: "When did Your Majesty come back, why did you sleep on the couch again?" Su Xin smiled: "It's just sleeping." Afraid of disturbing the mother, I slept outside for a while, and only came in when I was ready. ”

Ah Xiu sighed: "Don't let him sleep on the couch next time, there is no curtain, it is colder in the end." Su Xin smiled: "Niangniang feels sorry for Your Majesty, Your Majesty feels sorry for Niangniang, the slave will try her best to persuade Your Majesty next time, but Your Majesty's temperament is afraid that it will be difficult." ”

"I'm better, you go to sleep, make a charcoal basin and don't catch a cold." Ah Xiu nodded and urged Su Xin to sleep. Su Xin put down the bed tent and came out, and fell asleep in a daze.

At the fifth watch, Su Xin woke up and heard the squirming inside, thinking that Zhu Yuanzhang was about to get up and go up, and was about to go in, Zhu Yuanzhang lifted the curtain one step by one and came out. Su Xin hurriedly saluted, he put his coat and hat on the railing, Su Xin dressed him in the same way, and softly called the inner servants outside to send His Majesty out.

Zhu Yuanzhang was about to leave, turned around and instructed: "Don't go in and clean up first, it's not too late to clean up when the queen gets up, so as not to wake her up." Su Xin said yes, Zhu Yuanzhang went in a hurry, Su Xin covered the door of the palace, yawned, and returned to the futon to sit down.

After more than half an hour, Ying'er came over, but Ah Xiu hadn't woken up yet. Ying'er sent breakfast to the small kitchen to warm up, and several people sat in a row in a daze. Ying'er lifted the curtain and looked at it and asked softly, "Your Majesty slept on the couch last night?" Su Xin nodded, and Bi Jin also asked, "Did you come out with clothes and hats to wear again?" Su Xin smiled and nodded: "I'm afraid of waking up my mother, I wore a coat, and the rest came out to wear." ”

Yan'er said enviously: "The only one who can make Your Majesty so careful is our mother." Su Xin said: "That's natural, from bitter to sweet over the years, Niangniang and Your Majesty are the real couple in distress, raise their eyebrows, Niangniang knows the righteousness, open-minded and kind by nature, and the love between the two is incomparable to others." ”

Ying'er said: "Those who vainly try to replace them are whimsical. Yan'er's mouth was quick: "There is one in front of you, otherwise Your Majesty would be angry and close the palace." Su Xin motioned to them to keep their voices quieter: "This is because His Majesty doesn't want Niangniang to know, so you should keep your voice down." ”

A few people stopped talking, bowed their heads and thought about their own thoughts, and when Zhu Yuanzhang came back, he saw that they were still outside, and asked with a smile: "You guys are sitting in a row of flowers and green, it looks very good!" Several people got up to salute, and Zhu Yuanzhang signaled with his hand to silence him: "Don't be loud, is breakfast ready?" Su Xin was about to answer, and Axiu asked, "Your Majesty has gone down?" ”

Yan'er and Ying'er raised the curtains, Su Xin came in to serve Ah Xiu to get up, Bi Jin went to pass the meal, and Zhu Yuanzhang sat at the table for a long time to look at the ring on his finger. After Ah Xiu was dressed up and breakfast was ready, Zhu Yuanzhang got up and helped Ah Xiu to sit down, and the two ate together.

"Xu Da's front line is playing Kai, now that Fengyuan has been captured, I may come back late these days, if I am tired, I will sleep by myself, and I don't have to wait for me. If you don't come for lunch and dinner, you should also eat more on time. Zhu Yuanzhang was halfway through the meal and said to Ah Xiu. Ah Xiu said happily: "The war in the north is so smooth, it is my great luck!" Your Majesty's state affairs are important, and you don't need to worry too much about your concubines. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, motioned to Su Xin to add another bowl of porridge, took a sip and said: "There are only a few lovely housekeepers and palace maids in the queen's palace, let them guard in the warm pavilion at night in the future." There is no charcoal fire outside, and they are still cold, and if you wake up in the middle of the night and ask someone to serve you, they rush outside and get cold again. (To be continued.) )
