Telling the long-suppressed secret in his heart, the cuckoo was relaxed, but he still had unspeakable worries. Ruo Ying used the name of the cuckoo's physical discomfort to let the cuckoo only do some work such as female red in his house on weekdays, and the food was also improved. Ruoyu also went to Yu Toad to find out the maintenance of pregnant women, what to eat, what are the taboos, what to do in the months of pregnancy, and so on.

"Gege, no need." On this day, Ruoyu gave the red date cake slices on his table to the cuckoo, and the cuckoo resigned vigorously. However, as long as the eagle says, "It's not for you to eat, it's for the little baby in the belly", the cuckoo will obediently respond.

When he sat back at the table, Ruo Yu began to think of countermeasures again, Du Juan's stomach couldn't wait any longer, only himself, Du Juan, Zi Su and Yun Che knew in Fengyin Pavilion, in order to hide people's eyes, Du Juan only dared to move in the house every day, which made Ruo Ying feel distressed.

I often see the cuckoo talking to the baby in the belly alone, if you wait for the child to be born, let her be separated from the child, how cruel it should be, the cuckoo doesn't say it, but Ruoyu sees it all in his eyes. What method can I use to let the cuckoo give birth to the child safely, and escape the eyes of the prince without being separated from the child?

"Gege." Zi Su came into the house, holding a tray, and said, "The Thirteenth Master just sent someone a piece of Shui Lanqiu, saying that Gege is going to Shengjing next month, it's cold over there, let Gege bring it, don't be cold." These thirteen masters are more careful than the slaves and maids. ”

Water Lanqiu? Ruoyu walked up to Shiso, smiled and stroked his coat, and started with a smooth and stitch style, which was really a good material and a good process.

Laughing and laughing, Ruoyu's smile suddenly stared at his lips, Sheng Jing? yes, how did she forget about it. Shengjing is not as good as the capital, no matter how long their tentacles are, there will always be omissions, if they can arrange for the cuckoo to leave in Shengjing, it will be the best opportunity.

"Put away your clothes, and call the cuckoo over." Ruo Yu commanded.

After a while, the cuckoo entered the house and said, "Gege calls slaves? ”

"Dujuan, I have thought of a way that allows you to keep the child without having to go to Yuqing Palace." As soon as the cuckoo entered the house, Ruoyu pulled the cuckoo aside and said.

Hearing this, Du Juan's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Gege, what is the method?" ”

"Death!"

"Death?"

"That's right! I will go to Shengjing next month, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and it is much easier to act than in the palace. At that time, I only need to find an opportunity to send you away secretly, and tell the public that you have an emergency, and as long as things are done carefully, I am not afraid that they will send someone to investigate. When the palace sent someone over, there was no trace of you, so you had to go back empty-handed to restore your life? And you just have to go far, go to a place where no one recognizes you, and start a new life with your baby. Ruo Ying smiled and said to the cuckoo.

"Can this really be the case?" The cuckoo's face showed a brightness rarely seen in a few days.

"Yes, of course! Cuckoo, you've been pregnant for several months, and you can't afford to delay any longer. This visit to Shengjing is the best opportunity, rest assured, I will do everything thoroughly. Ruoyu raised his hand and brushed his sideburns for the cuckoo and smiled.

"Gege." The cuckoo knelt down and said, "Gege's kindness slave maid will never forget jì for the rest of his life, slave maid ......"

"Alright, hurry up." Ruoyu picked up the cuckoo and said, "Cuckoo, you have sacrificed so much for me, I know that I can only help you so much, I hope you can be happy and safe in the future." ”

"Gege, you have done too much for the slave and maid, the grace of life, the friendship of master and servant, the slave and maid will be grateful to Gege in this life, and pray for Gege's blessing and longevity all their lives."

"Okay." Ruo Ying smiled and nodded.

In the days that followed, the cuckoo seemed to have hope, his spirit was exceptionally good, and his smile was more. Ruoyu is also happy, these days, she has prepared a lot of clothes for adults and children to wear for the cuckoo, as well as the coiling on the road, Ruoyu picked a few simple jewelry in her jewelry box, so that the cuckoo can also wear it, if there is an accident, you can also exchange some silver two emergencies.

Seeing that the day of going to Shengjing was approaching, Ruoyu called the cuckoo, handed the things to the cuckoo, and said: "Cuckoo, these are some of the clothes I prepared for you, you can put them away yourself, and take them with you when you go to Shengjing, and if you find an opportunity, you can take them away directly." When you leave Shengjing, let's take the baby to live well. ”

"Gege, you've helped Cuckoo so much, Cuckoo can't take your stuff anymore." The cuckoo pushed.

"You just take it, a girl of yours is still pregnant, how can you do it without money? I have food and clothing in the palace, so I don't need this. You can rest assured to use it, buy a cottage, and then find a reliable girl to take care of you, you are doing well, and I can rest easy. Ruoyu stuffed the burden into the cuckoo's hand and said.

"Gege, slave Xie Gege." The cuckoo knelt down as he spoke.

Ruoyu hurriedly pulled up the cuckoo and said, "Don't always kneel around when you have a big belly." Be happy, my good cuckoo, think that you can leave right away, and then raise your children to live peacefully. ”

The cuckoo seemed to have seen the birth of the baby in a few months, and smiled happily and sweetly. Seeing the cuckoo like this, Ruoyu was relieved.

"Fourteenth Master, please let the slave and maid report."

"Get out of here!"

"Fourteenth master, it's Gege's boudoir inside, you can't break in! Fourteenth Master! ”

There was a quarrel outside, Ruo Ying frowned, and said to the cuckoo: "Cuckoo, you are so good to stay in my room, I'll go and see." ”

The cuckoo was a little worried, and finally said, "Yes." ”

Outside the house, the fourteenth elder brother picked up a sword, ignored the obstruction of a group of eunuchs and palace maids, and rushed to the courtyard angrily.

"Fourteenth Master, what are you doing here?" Ruo Ying was a little angry.

"Where's the cuckoo slut? Call her out! Fourteen's eyes were full of anger and the smell of alcohol in his body, which made Ruo Ying more vigilant.

"What are you looking for the cuckoo? She was sick. Ruo Ying replied.

"Sick? Hum! I'm afraid it's pretended! Ruo Ying, don't be deceived by her! The fourteenth elder brother wrinkled his brows and said as a bird.

"Y-What do you mean by that?" Ruo Yu was shocked, didn't he hear something? It shouldn't be.

"Ruoyu, are you still going to hide it from us? Something so big happened, how can you swallow it in your stomach? What are you doing with us?! Fourteen yelled.

Ruo Ying was stunned by the fourteenth elder brother's words, and staggered down, being held by Shisu. How could the fourteenth elder brother know about this? Isn't Kangxi sealed? Except for Kangxi, the thirteenth elder brother, the crown prince, the crown princess, Du Juan, Yun Che and himself, no one should know. If the fourteenth elder brother knows, what about him? Did the four Baylors also know? What would he think? Will he draw a line with himself from now on, and the two will not be at odds with each other?

Ruo Ying's mind was chaotic, but he could see the face of the fourteenth elder brother full of anger in front of him, Ruo Ying was calm, and he cheered up and thought about how to deal with the fourteenth elder brother back first.

"That incident is in the past, and I don't want to talk about it anymore." If the eagle doesn't look away.

"Waka! If it weren't for that, how would you, how could you......" The fourteenth elder brother didn't say any more, and said instead, "If you keep the traitor by your side, it's hard to guarantee that there will be a second and third time, no, I'm going to get rid of it today!" As he spoke, the fourteenth elder brother was going to break in again.

"Fourteenth Master, you drank too much, calm down! Things are not what you think, you go back first, and I'll talk to you tomorrow. Ruo Ying stopped the fourteenth elder brother and kept pushing him out.

The fourteenth elder brother couldn't listen to half a sentence, and said angrily: "No! I'm going to help you get rid of the mole today! If you don't get in the way, get out of the way! ”

"What are you all looking at? The fourteenth master drank too much, and he didn't help persuade the fourteenth master to go back! Ruo Ying saw that he couldn't hold him, so he scolded a group of palace people who were surrounding him.

The palace maids and eunuchs who had long been silent on the side rushed up again, pulling and pulling, dragging and dragging, and even coaxing and persuading to drag the fourteenth elder brother away.

"You all get out of the way, don't get in the way!" The fourteenth elder brother shouted and shouted.

"Little Lizi, hurry up and invite the eighth master to come, saying that the matter is urgent, and you can't delay for a moment." Ruo Ying turned his head and instructed the attendant beside the fourteenth elder brother.

"Huh!" Since Fang just came over with his master, Xiao Li Zi saw that the situation was not quite right, but he said all the way that he had failed to persuade the fourteenth master to go back.

"What do you call starlings for?!" The fourteenth elder brother said irritably.

"Fourteenth Master, calm down, seeing that it is about to be Concubine De's birthday, you really want to make something happen, how can you make Concubine De Niangniang frightened!" If the eagle is in a hurry, he will use Concubine De Niangniang as a shield, hoping that the fourteenth elder brother will have some scruples after hearing it.

Who knew that the fourteenth elder brother said: "What are you afraid of, cuckoo, this slut, there is one except one, and two kill a pair!" In front of Huang Ama and Eniang, I will go and ask for sin! ”

"You!" The eagle is like an ant on a hot pot, and it is so anxious that it is turning. Seeing that a few eunuchs and palace maids were about to be unable to pull it, and Babel and they had no shadow yet, the cuckoo was now pregnant, so how could it be good to really hurt her.

"Shiso." Ruoyu whispered to invite shiso.

"Gege."

"You go to my room and smuggle the cuckoo out of the yard, and then I will try to distract the fourteenth master's attention so that he won't find out." Ruoyu whispered to Shiso.

"Yes." Shiso led the order and quickly retreated.

"Fourteenth Master, let's go to the flower hall and say, there is something that can be discussed in the long run." Ruo Ying wants to introduce the fourteenth elder brother into the flower hall, so as not to bump into the cuckoo after a while.

"I'm not going! Go and get the cuckoo out of me, and I'll get rid of it for you!" "The fourteenth elder brother is bent on finding the cuckoo.

"I don't have anyone to get rid of, the cuckoo is my close attendant, Fourteenth Master, don't be like this!" If the eagle stomps his feet.

"If you are ...... Slut! Stop! The fourteenth elder brother was about to say something to Ruoyu, but he suddenly yelled at Ruoyu's side and back.

Not good! The eagle was shocked.

"Get out of here!" When the fourteenth elder brother saw the cuckoo, his eyes were already red, and when he shook his body, several palace maids and eunuchs were thrown to the ground by him. Ruoyu hurriedly stepped forward to hug the fourteenth elder brother, and shouted for Shisu to take the cuckoo to run.

But if the eagle can't resist the fourteenth elder brother at all, the drunk fourteenth elder brother is like a crazy lion at this time, exuding a terrifying power all over his body, and his strength is even more amazing. With a casual tug, he pushed Ruo Ying aside, and then, with his sword in hand, strode towards the cuckoo who was running out of the courtyard with a pale face.

Ruoyu's mind was blank at this time.

"Fourteenth Master, calm down!" Shisu let the cuckoo run first, and he rushed forward more than a dozen steps to block the fourteenth elder brother. The fourteenth elder brother pushed hard, and Shisu fell to the side. Zi Su couldn't care about himself, desperately hugged the leg of the fourteenth elder brother, and shouted for the cuckoo to run. The fourteenth elder brother was tripped by Shisu, and when he turned around, he kicked it, where could Zisu's slender body resist the strength of the fourteenth elder brother, and he fainted immediately.

Seeing this, it was as if it had been stabbed, and when she realized the current situation, she rushed over like crazy despite the pain in her ankles—

"Ahh

"Don't!"

The sound of spikes resounded in the sky, and the birds perched on the trees were also shocked to flapping their wings and flying away, which added a little panic to people's hearts. This sound shocked several people a few meters away from the courtyard gate to shout in their hearts.

The eagle crawled and rolled and crawled, and the wolf fell all the way to the cuckoo, but he didn't have time to stop the fatal sword, and only had time to catch the cuckoo's body that fell like a butterfly with broken wings, and sat down on the ground.

Eight Belles, Nine Elder Brothers, and Ten Elder Brothers rushed in in three steps and two steps, but they only saw the body of the cuckoo as if it had lost its soul—a body soaked in blood. The fourteenth elder brother also seemed to be a little more awake, the sword was still in his hand, the blade was bloody, and drops of red blood were dripping in the tremor. The rhododendron fell in that piece of azalea, this flower was specially planted for the rhododendron by Ruoyu and Shiso, just like the dream of the azalea mother: a fiery red rhododendron, blooming brilliantly. It's just that if someone had expected that this dazzling red rhododendron would have been soaked in the blood of the rhododendron, I am afraid that there would be no azalea, and there would not be this piece of rhododendron.

"Ge, Gege......" Ruoyu, who was already unconscious, heard the voice of the cuckoo, woke up from the helplessness, and hurriedly grabbed the cuckoo's hand and put it on his face.

"Cuckoo, cuckoo, don't worry, it's going to be okay, I'm not going to let you be okay, have you forgotten? Immediately, in a few days, I will take you to Shengjing and take you out of here. You can live a life without conspiracy and without bloodshed with your little baby. Cuckoo, cuckoo, you'll be fine......" As he spoke, Ruoyu's voice was choked.

"Gege......" The cuckoo gasped and smiled comfortingly, "Gege, slave ......"

"Cuckoo, don't say it, don't say it, cuckoo! Don't say it, don't say it, you hold on, I'll let people call the doctor. Come on, come on! A little eunuch stepped forward.

"Quick, go and invite the imperial doctor, the sooner the better, the sooner the better, go quickly, go quickly!" The eagle hissed.

The little eunuch couldn't stop saying "yes" and hurriedly ran outside.

"Gege, the slave can meet Gege, it is the most ...... slave in this life" The cuckoo was about to say something, but was interrupted by Ruoyu.

"Cuckoo, don't say that! You're still young, and you still have a long way to go. You still have a baby, you will have a husband who loves you, you will have a home, you will have a family, Du, cuckoo......" Ruoyu said, and he choked his voice and couldn't say the whole thing, and the tears of the bean kept rolling down.

"Gege, the slave wants to whisper to you." The cuckoo pursed the corners of his mouth lightly and whispered.

"Okay, you say, I'll listen." The eagle brought its ear close to the cuckoo's beak.

"Gege, the cuckoo has only loved one man in his life, so today, even if the slave dies under his sword, the slave has no regrets. But, but the slave and maid know that the fourteenth master is pretending to be Gege in his heart, please, please Gege, don't have a dispute with the fourteenth master because of the slave and maid, Gege, beg, please agree to the slave and maid. The cuckoo said intermittently.

"Cuckoo, ...... you" Ruoyu was stunned for a moment, Cuckoo likes the fourteenth elder brother? When did this happen? She didn't even notice it.

"Ge ......" The cuckoo was angry for a while, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Okay, good, I promise you, cuckoo, you hold on! I promise you, I promise you! If the eagle hurriedly wiped the blood from the corner of the cuckoo's mouth with his hands, but before he could wipe it off, there was new blood, and it could not be wiped clean.

"Cuckoo, Shegege." The cuckoo's gaze became more and more hollow, facing the sky, and muttered, "Eniang, Xi'er, I'll come, I'll come......" Xi'er, it was the cuckoo who gave the baby a name. She said that although this experience made her painful, she wanted to let the baby know that Eji loved him, was looking forward to it, and at the same time looking forward to it, as well as the upcoming new life that had nothing to do with "Aixin Jueluo".

This is the first time and the last time the cuckoo uses "I". If the eagle is looking straight ahead without focus, she doesn't look at the cuckoo, she can't see the cuckoo's slippery hand if she doesn't look. But even if she didn't look at it, she could clearly feel the weight on her legs slipping more and more. Ruo Eagle shook his head subconsciously, his bloodless lips were slightly open, trembling but not making a sound.

Babel softly ordered someone to carry the fainted Shisu back to the room, and then he was about to walk over to comfort Ruoyu—

"The emperor has arrived!"

The people in the courtyard knelt down, only Ruo Ying was still sitting on the ground with the body of the cuckoo, while the fourteenth elder brother was still holding the sword, his eyes were fixed on Ruo Ying, and he didn't know anything else.

Kangxi frowned, raised his hand to stop Babel, who was about to pray, walked to Ruoyu's side, squatted down, stroked the back of Ruoyu's head with one hand, and said softly: "Ruolu." ”

"Huh?" It's so dazzling, Ruoyu subconsciously squinted her eyes.

"Girl ......" looked at the person in front of him who was shockingly red and black, but his face was so pale that it was distressing, Kangxi didn't know what to say next, how to comfort him.

"Your Majesty, why are so many people here?" Waka's face was full of bewilderment.

"They ......"

"What's wrong with you?" Not a single one answered. The cuckoo frowned a little frustratedly, pouted habitually, and finally decided to throw the "problem" to Kangxi, "Your Majesty, if you want to ask you something." ”

"You say."

"Ruoyu wants to go to Shengjing to have a look."

"Didn't I already answer you?"

"The emperor has already answered?" Ruo Ying tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "Why doesn't Ruo Ying remember that he has asked the emperor for a will?" Ruo Ying obviously only heard the seventeenth master talk about it yesterday, every year in the first month, Shengjing is very lively, I want to say go and take a look! ”

"New Year?" Kangxi felt that something was not quite right, and several princes also looked at each other.

"If you know that it is a little cold in the first month of Shengjing, you are really curious, if the emperor thinks that it is not appropriate now, it is okay to wait for the spring flowers to bloom and then pass." Ruo Ying saw that Kangxi's expression was not very approving, so he took a step back.

"Girl, you can go if you want, but ah, you have to wait until you get your body well first. When the weather is warmer, let Zisu and Yun Che follow, and I will send your brother to escort you all the way. Kangxi said softly.

"Yun Che? Who is Yun Che? Ruo Yu was a little confused, as if he had some impressions, but he couldn't remember much.

"Isn't Yun Che the palace maid next to you?" Kangxi's face became darker.

Ruo Yu frowned: "The palace people of Fengyin Pavilion? But the people in this Fengyin Pavilion, Ruo Yu all remember the name, but they can't remember a person named Yun Che. Ruolu remembered that Yun Che was a female official next to the emperor. It's just that Ruolu already has Du Juan and Zi Su around him to serve, so there is no need to add others. Ruolu smiled slightly and explained to Kangxi.

"Eagle girl, you ......" Kangxi's tone was a little hesitant.

"What's wrong?" Ruo Ying didn't understand why Kangxi's face was so bad, "Your Majesty, are you uncomfortable?" Why doesn't your face look good? ”

Kangxi replied vaguely and said, "It's nothing, Ying'er, you're tired too, go and rest." ”

"Okay."

If the eagle unconsciously got up, he felt the weight on his body.

"Huh?" Originally, I was talking to Kangxi, and I kept looking up, but when I glanced down, I saw a terrifying red color, and a large smudge after the blood coagulated. Like lightning, a flash of light flashed in the eagle's mind—the sword that stabbed at the cuckoo, the picture of the cuckoo falling, the gushing blood, and the cuckoo in his arms in front of him! That familiar face was right in front of her, but at this time, she closed her eyes tightly, and the bloodstains were like dazzling red azaleas on her pale palace dress.

Suddenly, Ruo Eagle's mind remembered everything—dead! The cuckoo is dead! Growing so big, it's the first time I've touched a dead person, and this is my loved one who has been with me day and night! Suddenly, the scene in front of me overlapped with the image in my mind—a rescue table with white strips, an empty floor, and a cold morgue corridor......

"Don't, don't!" Ruoyu got up in a hurry and retreated two or three meters away at once. Eight-year-old self, with his head bowed, holding his sister's hand tightly, with a red lacquer sign of "no entry......

"Don't, don't ......" Ruoyu shook her head fiercely, but the pictures haunted her like a ghost, entangled in the dream of the eight-year-old, entangled in the mind that wanted to crack at this time.

"Waka! Wakayu! Calm down! Girl, okay, okay, it's all over, it's over, it's okay......" Kangxi stepped forward and hugged Ruoyu, who was shaking his head desperately, and kept comforting, but found that he couldn't say these few words. Thinking that she could not be stimulated any more, he ordered someone to carry the cuckoo's body away.

Ruoyu slowly quieted down in Kangxi's arms, and his trembling body gradually warmed up, but he found that several eunuchs were about to carry away the body of the cuckoo, opened Kangxi's arms, ran over like crazy, and snatched the cuckoo down, but he couldn't hold the weight that was suddenly moved to his body, and fell to the ground again.

"Girl!"

"You go away, don't touch her, don't snatch her away, don't, don't ......" Ruo Ying hugged the cuckoo with one hand, and kept waving the other hand, trying to wave away the palace people who wanted to come forward.

"If you are a bird, you must bury the cuckoo." Kangxi sighed.

Ruo Yu looked at Kangxi and muttered, "Why did it become like this? Why let her enter the palace? Why could he ruin her so casually? Why is it that she has only a few days, only a few days when she will be free, but she wants to shatter her hopes? Why, why...... Why don't you let her go one by one? I don't know if there are tears, and if the eagle whimpers, she sobbed and sobbed to express the resentment in her heart.

"Your Majesty." The heart became clearer and clearer, and Ruoyu said in a clear voice, "Ruoyu wants to transport the body of the cuckoo back to the grassland and bury it under a piece of azalea." ”

"I promise you."

"Your Majesty."
