In this dark night, the eunuch in charge of the lamp walked very slowly, for fear that he would accidentally take the wrong way and knock the master behind him to move, and the person behind him just smiled slightly, as if he hadn't seen anything just now, and whispered to Yan Jiu, a little girl who was much shorter than him.

After the two of them came out of the queen's palace, they went straight to the east palace, and tonight I don't know why, I always feel lifeless all around, even the squeaks of insects that usually come and go are pitiful, and the crescent moon hanging in the air is also sullenly hiding behind a dark cloud, as if it is sentimental something......

Yan Jiu walked between Ling An and the prince, during which a cold wind hit from time to time, she shook her body slightly and leaned towards the prince, the prince looked down at her and smiled: "Hide in my robe, be warmer, I don't know what's wrong with how long this has been in the spring or so cold." As he spoke, he shook his Jinluo navy blue robe, and took Yan Jiu over to the side.

At this time, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional, he has so many sisters over the years, but who dares to get close to him, one by one, seeing him, either deliberately detouring or respectfully, for fear of provoking his displeasure or even the queen's dissatisfaction with a word.

This is the first time he has taken care of a person like taking care of his sister, he looked down at Yan Jiu, who was not enough for his waist, and couldn't help touching her small bun and smiled faintly, how cute the child is, why can't his mother tolerate it.

Yan Jiu gently raised his eyes in the warm robe and glanced at the prince, smiled slightly, those big eyes seemed to be able to tell stories, with a trace of coldness that belonged to her alone, the prince thought that Yan Jiu was frightened today and hurriedly comforted: "You don't have to worry about my queen mother, come to me for anything in the future, or find Ling An, and I will help my queen mother compensate you." The prince said that there was a trace of loss in his eyes, and he would not give up no matter how disappointed he was with his mother.

Yan Jiu said lightly: "I'm not a fox, what am I afraid of, hum!" ”

"Hahaha......" The prince laughed somehow, looking at the body of little Nono in his arms, he wanted to laugh.

When he returned to the East Palace, the prince hurriedly asked people to prepare some food, and at this time, Yan Jiu seemed to see a figure not far away, the figure was running towards him, and after a while, he heard the figure slowly turn into two......

"Ninth sister."

"Little Nine."

It turned out to be Yan Wu and Yan Da!

The prince smiled: "The two of them don't worry about you, so I'll let them wait for you here." ”

Yan Da touched his head and said: "The slave still believes in His Royal Highness the Prince, but my ninth sister is weak, and I am afraid that I will be scared by the queen mother, and then ...... It won't grow anymore. ”

The hot tea that the prince had just drunk in his mouth spit out, and seeing that Yan Da couldn't say a word, Yu Da still dodged the prince's gaze, because he always remembered that the prince was going to shoot them at the beginning, and if it weren't for Yan Jiu's possible accident, he wouldn't have come to the East Palace with the prince today.

Yan Jiu took Yan Wu's hand, both of them laughed, Yan Da stretched out his hand and hugged the two younger sisters and said, "I'm scared to death, I thought I wouldn't be able to see Xiao Jiu." ”

Yan Wu smiled heartily: "My family nine is going to live to ninety-nine, how can there be anything?" ”

The friendship between the three brothers and sisters was so strong that the prince was extremely uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but say: "Yanda, take your sister back!" Yan Da said hello, and was about to go out with Yan Jiu, when he was hit by the little eunuch who rushed up to the door, and he was just about to say something when he heard the little eunuch say eagerly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the emperor asked me to invite the old lady in your palace." ”

The prince glanced at it and asked, "Why is the old lady of the harem not enough, and she wants to borrow someone from my East Palace?" "It's not that he doesn't give it, it's just that what does the emperor want for this reason, not to mention that the old grandmothers in the East Palace in recent days are all prepared for the future prince and concubine, what's the use of the emperor asking for it? He was curious.

The eunuch replied: "The prince doesn't know, Mrs. Jiang's twin sons don't know how to ...... today, they gave birth early, and the old grandmothers in this palace have gone, and the queen mother said that the experienced old grandmothers in her palace were given to the prince a few days ago, and the emperor let the servants come." "The delivery in this palace has always been done by those old women who are old and have given birth, because the imperial doctor is a man after all. When the prince heard this, since it was a major event to save people, he immediately asked Ling An to arrange it.

At this time, Mrs. Jiang's palace could be described as chaotic.

A few experienced old ladies worked hard to make Mrs. Jiang exert herself. However, today's Mrs. Jiang doesn't seem to have produced ** at all, her eyes are staring at the front, empty and boring, her hands are limp on the bed, Li Zhaorong next to her looks very sad, and keeps saying - "Sister, everyone has gone, why should you be sad, give birth to the child well!" She said sincerely, but there was a hint of unnoticed strangeness in her eyes, and at this time, a decree suddenly came from outside the house, saying that Mrs. Jiang's maiden family was here.

Li Zhaorong looked at it incredulously, didn't she remember that the Jiang clan had gone to the frontier to garrison? Where did the mother's family come from?

"Bai Gongzi, it's a place where the female dependents are, let's wait here!" The queen grabbed Bai Qicong, who was about to go inside, and said kindly, as if she was very familiar with Bai Qicong.

Bai Qicong replied respectfully: "I don't know, my father told me to bring a word to my cousin, I will definitely go in, and someone will blindfold me." Bai Qicong said, looked at the people around him, and a palace maid came over with a black cloth that seemed to have been prepared early in the morning to help Bai Qicong tie it.

The queen still pulled him, and at this time, the emperor hurried over and saw this scene and said lightly: "You just let him in, his eyes are blindfolded, maybe his words can be useful." ”

The queen looked at the emperor behind her, and had no choice but to let go of her hands, and Bai Qicong was taken in.

Li Zhaorong was stunned when she saw Bai Qicong walking in, how could she forget that the Jiang family and Shoufu were distant cousins, or how could she never have thought that the Shoufu family, who had a falling out with the Jiang family at that time, would come to see the Jiang family.

Thinking that the second son of the Bai family was going to live and die for the Jiang family, and then simply left Kyoto to go to Saibei to serve as a soldier, and the Jiang family refused Shoufu's proposal in order to send the Jiang family to the palace, really, but she saw that the Jiang family looked hopeless in this life and thought that it should be done.

"Cousin!" Bai Qicong said, shaking his hand indiscriminately, not waiting for Jiang's response, and then replied lightly: "My second brother said that he will return to Beijing to report on his work after a while after he has made meritorious service, and he will come to see you later." ”

Li Zhaorong's face turned blue when she heard this, but she swore to Jiang Shi that the person in her heart had died on the battlefield early, and it was impossible for the horse leather shroud to come back, Bai Qicong's words undoubtedly gave her a big mouth, which was really painful.

Jiang Shi seemed to have spirit, and asked weakly-"Really?" ”

Bai Qicong smiled: "I have never lied to my cousin. ”

There were tears in Jiang's eyes, and at this moment, the old ladies said happily: "Madame is like this, you must work hard, otherwise you and the little princes will be in danger of their lives." ”

As soon as Bai Qicong heard this, he was ready to let someone take him out, and before leaving, he said coldly: "Sister Li, don't forget, you have nothing without the Jiang family, think about your position." Li Zhaorong silently looked at the young man who was gradually walking away in the distance, and thought to himself, how can this Shoufu family be such a group of people who hit the nail on the head.

Jiang's twin sons landed when they were approaching their sons, and a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses made the old emperor excited.

"Reward!" The emperor repeated the word several times.
