On the way out of the palace, the sun was shining in the evening, Ruolu walked in the endless road, and the shadow behind her dragged on for a long time, as if pulling her steps at the moment, making every step she took a little difficult. And Ruolu at this moment, his heart is heavier than the steps under his feet.

Some things were slowly changing, some things were happening when she didn't know them, and some feelings weren't what she knew they were.

In March, Nian Qianyao was reprimanded.

In April, Nian Qianyao handed over the seal of the general and was transferred to Hangzhou as general.

In June, Nian Qianyao cut the post of Taibao.

was reprimanded for being so continuous, there was a low pressure in Yikun Palace, and Luoyan went to see it a few times, and after coming back, his color became more and more ugly every time. Ruo Lu saw it in her eyes, and she had seen the cloud rumors two or three times alone or with Luo Yan, but looking at her increasingly thin and haggard face, Ruo Lu had nothing to say except persuasion.

Above the court, most officials have changed from a wait-and-see posture to expose impeachment, and for a while, everyone in Beijing avoided the "Nian clan", and the Nian clan was even more like falling into the quagmire from the clouds, and the misery was unspeakable.

In the house, Ruolu is dressed in regular clothes, and the writer is often dressed up, sitting sideways on the edge of the bed in the bedroom, watching over the two little people crawling around on the bed. On the edge of the bed, a high barrier was built with two quilts so that the two little ones would not fall under the bed.

"Gege, it's time for the little master to use the puree." Xiang Jin came in with a tray with two small white porcelain bowls on it, and in the bowls were the most popular assorted fruit purees for the two little ones.

Ruo Yu responded, turned his head to Tong Yueqin and said: "You should come to this Tao boy, I can't cure him, every time I feed him, I can get my body." ”

Yueqin stepped forward with a smile, picked Hongzhao out of bed, put on a bib, and sat down at the round table next to him to feed him.

Hongzhao is the name given by Ruo Yu when it is a hundred days. Speaking of the name, Ruolu is both angry and funny, the names of these two children have been seriously delayed for some days, until Ruolu gave an ultimatum, Yinzhen set the deadline at 100 days, and said that by 100 days at the latest, the child will be given a good name.

For the names of these two children, Ruolu also surrendered, she didn't see that Yinzhen was such an indecisive person on weekdays, and she just took two names, but she worked hard to become like this. Looking forward to the stars and the moon, Ruolu finally looked forward to the hundred days of the two children, Yinzhen did not break her promise, and without waiting for her to ask, she immediately reported her daughter's name, Xi Miao, and left the small characters.

"Those who know me say I am worried, and those who don't know me say what I want."

When Yinzhen whispered this sentence in her ear, Ruolu understood everything, without too many words, she only gently held Yinzhen's hand and stared at him for a long time.

However, the warm and charming atmosphere did not last long, and the boy's chirping reminded Ruolu: "Then what name did you choose boy?" ”

When these words were asked, Ruolu saw that Yinzhen's face suddenly became a little strange, and she secretly screamed in her heart that it was not good, isn't it a strange name?

"Not much...... Good? Ruolu asked tentatively.

Yinzhen didn't answer.

"Yinzhen?"

"I ...... Forgot. ”

Then there was a long silence.

In the end, the boy's name was improvised by Ruolu, Hongzhao, she hoped that the child could grow up in the sun, she didn't need him to fight for anything, but she asked him to have a clear character and live a clean life. As for the nickname, Ruolu was lazy, and picked the word "shake" as the boy's nickname from the song "Huang Li" selected by Yinzhen, and it happened that every time he coaxed him to sleep, he had to shake it lightly, otherwise he would not stop, and he would make trouble with her when he stopped, these two words are the most suitable.

After feeding the two children, several people played with them for a while, and the two children gradually became sleepy. At this time, Ruijin came to report that it was the Twelve Fujin who were visiting. Ruijin is the one who was transferred to replace Liangchen.

"Gege, do you want to see you?" When she entered the palace that day, she was accompanied by Xiangjin, although she did not say anything to Xiangjin, but Neixiu was like Xiangjin, I am afraid that she had even heard and guessed that she knew seven or eight percent.

"Everyone is here, so naturally they want to see it." Ruolu handed Lili to Ruijin and said, "You take the children to rest first, and Xiangjin will invite the twelve blessings to the study." ”

Everyone took the order and left, leaving only Ruolu alone in the house, she stood in the middle of the room, slightly tilted her head and glanced, the person in the mirror was still the same as in the past, but her heart has quietly changed. Since she heard the old things from the Twelfth Master, although she was cold, but in the end, it was Yu Toad, what she remembered, it was still Yu Toad who surrounded her and helped her at the palace banquet that year!

It is because of this warmth that even if she knows the inside story, she still has not cut off contact with Yu Toad, she would rather believe that Yu Toad's heart is still soft.

Although the Twelfth Master explained the ins and outs to her, the Twelfth Master may not be able to fully understand those virtual things that are related to the heart, emotions, and feelings. If she wasn't Yu Toad, if she wasn't someone she knew, she might have stood on the opposite side and criticized her, but now she can't. She was horrified, even a little frightened, by what Yu Toad had done, but she hoped that she could gradually change Yu Toad and make her go back to her original self.

The man in the mirror pursed his lips vigorously and stepped out of the room.

In the study, Yu Toad had already arrived, and at this moment she was still nestled on the sofa as before, holding in her hand the collection of novels she hadn't finished when she came last time. Seeing Ruolu coming, Yu Toad waved the scroll in his hand and did not get up: "Didn't bother you, did you?" The house was stuffy, and I couldn't sit still. ”

Ruolu sat on the other side of the sofa, leaned on the armrest, and said: "I pulled you out at the beginning, I wanted you to relax and see more of the world outside the house, but now it's good, but I have taken you into the wild, isn't there grass growing on the stool in your house?" I can't sit still. Ruolu said that he would return to him, but handed a copy of the sweet soup in the tray brought in by Xiangjin to Yu Toad, "Well, you came by chance, what you have in the kitchen today is your favorite osmanthus taro balls." ”

Yu Toad took it with a smile and ate two in a row before saying, "Didn't I just hear the call of this taro ball, so I came?" I'm grateful to you for taking me in for a long time, but you're starting to dislike me. Yu Toad simply took off his shoes, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and concentrated on eating sweet soup.

Ruolu looked at the Yu Toad in front of her, she was clearly still the same as before, her entry into the palace that day, and the conversation with the Twelfth Master that day, was it really not a dream?

"What do you think?"

Ruolu's thoughts were interrupted by Yu Toad's hand suddenly reaching out and waving up and down in front of her eyes, put down the soup bowl, and said, "It's nothing, just thinking of Ruoqing, I feel a little emotional." ”

Yu Toad paused and said, "You mean...... The Ninth Master was dismissed? Yu Toad slowly quieted down.

Ruolu secretly glanced at Yu Toad's expression and sighed, "You also heard?" Seeing Yu Toad nodding slightly, Ruo Yu continued, "I don't know what kind of thing it is, but it is so strict that it is going to be given to Gejue." I don't understand the affairs of the court, it's just that it's hard to be clear, Kuang'er is still young, Jiu Ye has been sinned, and Jiu Fujin is such a weak person who can't control things. If Qin Daoran is still here, this mansion can still last for a while, but it's a pity that now, this family is probably going to disperse. ”

"The ninth brother is friendly with the eighth brother, and the ninth sister-in-law and the eighth sister-in-law are also in and out together, even if the ninth brother is dismissed, the eighth sister-in-law can always help the ninth sister-in-law to support it, right?" Yu Toad asked tentatively.

Ruolu shook his head and chuckled: "Silly Yu Toad, didn't you see that Bafujin was already taking care of himself in his own house?" Where can I still divide my mind to help Jiufujin? After saying that, there was another sigh.

Yu Chan's expression was gloomy, and he said softly: "I heard that the eighth sister-in-law has been a little bad with the starling brother for a while, if the starling brother is also like the ninth brother, he has been convicted and dismissed, the eighth sister-in-law may be happier." ”

"Wake up!" Ruolu vigorously nodded Yu Toad's forehead, "Who is the Eight Blessings?" She is the granddaughter of Prince An Yue Le, the pearl of Ming Shang's forehead, are you teaching Prince An's Mansion and Forehead Mansion since childhood? Husband and wife are one, one person is convicted, the family suffers, and what's more, even Fujin's maiden family will be implicated, the heavy one is the same, and if the emperor wants to use someone in the future, seeing that it is this family, I am afraid that he will also have to weigh it. The intricacies here, where is the matter of the husband and wife, it has long been a family matter. ”

Yu Toad was stunned by Ruolu's words, and she felt her heart beating violently, about to jump out of her chest, as if it would pop out of her mouth in the next second.

Ruolu watched Yu Toad's face gradually turn pale, but she didn't say anything, she hoped that Yu Toad could figure it out for herself, she was not an ordinary family, she was born in the Eight Banners, her Ama was an important minister of the two dynasties, and her husband was a prince. These things she did, if the Twelfth Master said half a word, it would be for the Nine Clans. Even if she takes 10,000 steps back, she is a woman from an ordinary family, so how much hatred can she have to do this, and even calculate herself, and want to borrow her own hand to teach her husband a lesson, a lesson that is ruined, and may even be life-threatening?

She obviously loved him so fiercely......

"Ruolu." Yu Toad didn't turn his head, his gaze didn't know where to fall, "There are some things that can't be said clearly, maybe the eighth sister-in-law's resentment towards the starling brother has made her care about the glory of the family and the life of the family." You see, the ancestors made words, and they knew early that the color was a murder knife! ”

Yu Toad's eyes slowly became focused, her gaze was fixed in one place, and gradually became cold and gloomy. I don't know if it's because her feelings are fluctuating at the moment, and she forgets to cover it up, or if she doesn't want to hide it anymore, that gaze is something that Ruolu has never seen before, which makes her tremble and makes her feel a little regretful.

"Luoyan, it's my child with the emperor." Ruolu suddenly came out of nowhere.

Yu Toad was a little stunned by this sentence, she turned her head to look at Ruolu, and there was a cold hatred in her eyes that she would have time to take back in the future.

Ruolu ignored it and said to himself: "At that time, he was angry with me, resented me, hated me, misunderstood that I joined forces with the deposed prince to deceive him, lost his mind for a while, and forced me. I fled to the outside of the fortress in a wolf way, but I accidentally found that there was a falling face, and you all thought that I was sent to Yuqing Palace because of my falling face, and in fact it was true. In the eyes of most people, I ascended to the sky in one step, in the eyes of more people, I don't know shame, but I hate to death, if there is no emperor's compulsion, I will not be pregnant with a face, then only a few months, I can get rid of the prince, and at that time, I don't have to be forced to enter Yuqing Palace. Ruolu exhaled a long breath, "In those days, I didn't tell anyone, it was a pain that I can't erase in my life." Even though I can gradually calm down with that memory, without it, I often ask myself, would I be happier? These pains are all from the emperor, and I am still with the emperor now, I have too many opportunities to take revenge on him, but I can't do it. Do you know? When I returned to the palace again and saw Luoyan for the first time, I was glad that I gave birth to her, no matter what the consequences were, the comfort she brought me had already surpassed the pain. ”

Yu Chan looked at Ruolu fixedly, she had also been a mother, she couldn't imagine that she couldn't recognize her own son in the face of her own son, how did Ruolu do it in the past ten years?

"Yu Toad, people's feelings are very wonderful things, no one can say who they will suddenly like, let alone decide other people's feelings. Maybe some people are just a little bit worse than each other, but if I really love him, I am willing to bless him, even if there are a thousand and ten thousand people in my heart who don't want them to be happy, but I hope he is happy. ”

"I can't do it." Yu Toad suddenly shook his head and repeated, "I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it......"

Ruolu grabbed Yu Toad's arm and waited for her to calm down a little before saying, "If you do these things, if the Twelfth Master is willing to say a word, don't say that it is you, even your entire Fucha clan will die together, but he didn't say it." You use the ** of the Twelfth Master to force Xiao Luzi to do things for you to discredit the Twelfth Master, and Xiao Luzi uses death to fulfill himself, do you think the Twelve Masters don't know? But he still didn't say anything. You did these things but it didn't hurt, and finally decided to start with me, which made the emperor angry, and the twelfth master carried the black pot for you, so that he was convicted one after another, but he still didn't say anything. ”

Yu Toad's expression gradually changed from ignoring Ruolu's words to surprise, and then to panic, she held Ruolu's hand with both hands, and kept saying: "Ruolu, Ruolu, I don't really want to hurt you, I, I really didn't mean to, I can't help it, I was dizzy for a while......" Yu Toad finally couldn't bear it, and broke down and cried.

This time, Ruolu didn't give her time to calm down slowly: "Yu Toad, I always remember how good you were at the beginning, so I don't want to break off with you." I'm an outsider after all, and what the Twelfth Master did for you, I can't even compare to one-tenth of it. Ruo Yu sighed, "I am not qualified to meddle in your affairs, but I just want to advise you, the living are not as good as the dead after all, she is no longer there, even if there is a place for her in the heart of the Twelfth Master?" After all, it is you who is by his side, and a hundred years later, it is you who will sleep with him forever. ”

I entrust my affection to the years, and after years of searching, I know that the years do not leave a trace. (To be continued.) )
