Liu Xuan saw Li Che's resolute attitude, so she could only nod her head, to be honest, she and Li Che's mother both died in childbirth, and she was a little afraid of giving birth.

Liu Xuan was relieved to hand over the matter of the racecourse and the second uncle's family to Li Che, so she concentrated on raising the baby, and Gongyuan personally came to ask for the pulse on the first day, and specially told her to move around more.

Seeing that the New Year is approaching, Li Che is getting busier and busier, and the days of staying in the Manna Hall are getting fewer and fewer.

Liu Xuan was a little unimpressed, after all, when he was busy in the past, it was common for the two to not see each other for a month.

It was the three of Xiaozhu and Winter Plum Blossom Shadow who reminded Liu Xuan from time to time that they should go and see Li Che.

Liu Xuan's belly is getting more and more bulky, and now she is pregnant in July, and her belly is comparable to that of others in September, she really has no intention or power to care about Li Che, and what she is most worried about now is the fetus in her womb.

Because Gong Yuan said that most people who are pregnant with twins are born prematurely.

Premature birth is not terrible, the terrible thing is that if the fetus is born prematurely, the body bones must not be as hard as full-term, and it is winter, if she is really born prematurely, even if she can give birth to twins safely, the twins want to survive this winter, I am afraid it will be even more difficult.

When Li Che heard about this, he specially sent Cui Laifu to prepare early, not only prepared the nurse and midwife early, but also renovated a side hall of the Ganlu Hall to house the princes who were about to be born.

The days passed, Li Che was so busy that he had not stepped into the Manna Hall for more than half a month, and Liu Xuan was also grounded, and was only allowed to move in the Manna Palace, lest she have an accident.

Liu Xuan was really depressed in the Manna Hall all day long, and everyone was waiting for her like a great enemy. After a long time, she was dissatisfied, and on this day, she visited the Ganlu Hall again, and she couldn't help but want to go to the Imperial Garden.

Xiao Zhuzi's eyes flickered slightly when he heard this, and he persuaded in a low voice: "Niangniang's body is getting heavier and heavier now, so it's better not to go out of the palace." ”

In recent days, Liu Xuan has heard this more than ten times, and after hearing it too much, she also noticed that something was wrong, she frowned and said, "But Your Majesty doesn't allow me to leave the palace?" ”

Xiao Zhuzi nodded slightly: "Your Majesty is also thinking about Niangniang." ”

Liu Xuan would not have thought much about this before. But these days, Xiao Zhu and the others have flickering eyes when they see her. Even Dongmei and Huaying were a lot duller, she frowned and her voice was a little cold: "The head of the Gongyuan let the palace move around a lot, although this manna hall is big." But I'm tired of visiting the main palace. Today, I'm going to go to the Imperial Garden! ”

As soon as Xiaozhuzi heard Liu Xuan calling himself the palace. knew that she was a little annoyed, and said hurriedly: "Even if Niangniang wants to go, can you wait for the slave to ask Your Majesty before going?" ”

Liu Xuan snorted lightly when she heard this: "This palace is going now!" ”

After saying that, she raised her feet and walked towards the outside of the Manna Temple. Xiao Zhuzi broke out in a cold sweat in the winter, he hurriedly took two steps forward to block Liu Xuan's way, and pleaded: "Niangniang, you will go out of the palace later......"

At this point, Liu Xuan still didn't understand anything, and looked at the little pillar and said, "Is there anything in the Imperial Garden that can't be seen in the palace?" ”

Xiao Zhu's eyes flickered, and he bit his lip and didn't answer.

Liu Xuan snorted coldly: "You don't let me go, I want to go and see, there is nothing in this imperial garden that can't be seen in this palace!" ”

With that, she ignored the little pillar and strode past him.

Xiao Zhuzi hurriedly shouted behind him: "Dongmei, Flower Shadow!" The mother is going to the Imperial Garden! ”

Dongmei and Hua Yingben were doing something else, and when they heard the shouts of the little pillar, they hurriedly lost their work and ran out, but when they came out, they found that Liu Xuan had already left the main hall, and the two glared at the little pillar resentfully, and then hurriedly followed.

Liu Xuan glanced at Dongmei and Huaying, who came to her side, and raised her eyebrows: "What, the two of you are also here to block the palace?" ”

Dongmei and Huaying said in unison that they didn't dare, Liu Xuan said lightly: "It's okay if you don't dare, what are you hiding from me?" Do you know that the word deception is what I hate the most? ”

Dongmei and Huaying were bitter on their faces, Liu Xuan knew it in her heart, and she chuckled: "But what should your majesty see in the imperial garden?" ”

When Hua Ying heard this, she suddenly burst out in surprise: "How does Niangniang know? ”

Liu Xuan sighed: "Is there anything in this harem that you need to hide from me?" Thinking about it, it's nothing more than Your Majesty's business, let's say, who is he with in the Imperial Garden? ”

Dongmei and Huaying still didn't answer, Liu Xuan stopped and looked at the two of them: "If you two say it, maybe I won't go, what I'm most worried about right now is the fetus in the womb, and other things are not important, but if you two don't say it, I'll go and see it myself." ”

Huaying and Dongmei lowered their heads, and Dongmei said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is enjoying the plum blossoms with Concubine Cao in the Imperial Garden." ”

After speaking, Dongmei raised her head and looked at Liu Xuan's face cautiously, for fear that she would suffer some blow because of this matter.

Liu Xuan's face was as usual, she just frowned slightly and said, "How long has this been the case?" ”

Dongmei replied honestly: "It's been half a month." ”

"Your Majesty has seen Concubine Cao every day within half a month?" Liu Xuan frowned and asked, "Except for seeing each other during the day, has Your Majesty ever stayed in her palace?" ”

Dongmei lowered her head and didn't make a sound, Liu Xuan turned her gaze to the flower shadow on the side, only to see that the flower shadow also bowed her head and was silent.

Silence is acquiescence.

Liu Xuan half-lowered her eyes when she heard this, she knew Li Che's temperament very well, if she had believed it before, she might have believed it, and if she believed it, Li Che had fallen in love with Cao Ying, but she had experienced so much between her and him, and she was no longer the Liu Xuan who ran away sadly when she heard that he married a side concubine.

She knows how busy Li Che is, and the more recent she is, the more she lacks skills, but in such a situation, Li Che actually finds time to accompany Cao Ying every day, and even stays in her palace, which makes Liu Xuan not feel strange.

She raised her eyes and asked, "What can happen in this half a month?" ”

Dongmei and Huaying thought that Liu Xuan would be hit hard, but they never thought that she would ask an irrelevant question, and they were relieved at the moment, and Huaying replied: "Half a month ago, Cao Shuyi died in Xuchang'an. ”

Li Che once said that Empress Dowager Cao was going to attack Cao Fei. So Liu Xuan was not surprised to hear this, and she asked again: "Is her death related to me?" ”

Dongmei and Huaying looked up at her in unison when they heard this, and Liu Xuan sneered when she saw this: "It seems that it really has something to do with me." ”

She pursed her lips: "If there is something you might as well say it directly, lest it seem troublesome for me to ask around." ”

Dongmei knows her own lady very well, and knows that she is a smart person, and she will go through things one by one at the moment.

It turned out that Cao Fei was poisoned by the dove and died, it is said that the palace maid of the Ganlu Hall went on the order of Liu Xuan, the palace maid had some martial arts, although Cao Fei refused to obey the death, but she was still forced to pour the dove poison.

Cao Fei's death alarmed the teachers and wives of Xuchang'an. The palace maid saw that she couldn't escape, so she committed suicide. It's just that when he was dying, he insisted that he was the palace maid of the Ganlu Palace, and this time he was ordered by Liu Xuan to take Cao Fei's life.

After Liu Xuan heard this, she immediately frowned: "That palace maid is really a person from the Manna Palace?" ”

Huaying shook her head: "That palace maid is not from the Ganlu Palace. The Ganlu Hall is whether it is a palace maid or a eunuch. All of them were personally selected by His Majesty. is loyal to Niangniang, but the palace maid declared herself to be a member of the Ganlu Hall in front of everyone, and she was ordered by Niangniang. The story has been spread, and no matter how much we explain, others will not believe it. ”

Liu Xuan's eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper, and she said lightly: "Your Majesty has investigated this matter thoroughly?" ”

Huaying nodded: "Your Majesty naturally checked, but the palace maid seemed to appear out of thin air, and she committed suicide again, and now there is no proof of her death." ”

"It seems that this black cauldron, this palace is backed!" Liu Xuan snorted coldly and asked, "Is there anything else besides?" Why did Your Majesty ban my feet? ”

Flower Shadow shook her head to indicate that she didn't know, but Dongmei was silent.

Liu Xuan looked at Dongmei and said, "Dongmei, what happened in this half month?" ”

Dongmei bit her lip, hesitated for a long time, looked up and saw Liu Xuan's frowning appearance, and then said, "Steward Qian once came to ask to see Niangniang, but was stopped by His Majesty." ”

Money Pass?

Liu Xuan sighed in her heart, didn't something happen again? According to Qian Tong's temperament, it is not a big deal, he will never find himself at this time, what happened to make Li Che stop him and ban his feet?

Liu Xuan frowned and thought for a moment, but she couldn't think of why, although Cao Fei's death had damaged her reputation as a black pot, her reputation was not good, and no matter how bad it was, it wouldn't be damaged, and Yipinxiang's business would not change because of this little thing.

She thought about it, there was only one possibility, and that was that something happened to the racecourse.

Thinking of this, Liu Xuan walked towards the direction of the Imperial Garden: "Let's go, let me see how inseparable Your Majesty and Concubine Cao are!" ”

Dongmei and Huaying glanced at each other, their faces were bitter, didn't they say that they had told everything, and Niangniang wouldn't go to the Imperial Garden? If Niangniang saw the loving appearance of His Majesty and Cao Guifei, wouldn't it add to the blockage of Niangniang?

Now that the mother's body is heavy, and the twins are very easy to be born prematurely, if it is stimulated by something to move the fetal gas, how can this be good?

But it was useless for Huaying and Dongmei to worry, because Liu Xuan had already gone to the Imperial Garden, and the two had to follow with bitter faces.

The plum blossoms in the imperial garden are gorgeous, and you can ask about the aroma of plum blossoms from afar, and along with the aroma, there is also the melodious sound of the piano.

Liu Xuan's piano skills are high, and when she hears it, she knows that there is infinite affection in this piano sound.

She tugged at the corners of her mouth, although this song is not as good as the song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" that she played in Yizhou City Tower, but it is almost the same, but anyone who knows the piano can hear the deep affection in it.

Liu Xuan walked all the way to the sound of the piano, and saw that on the gazebo of the imperial garden, Li Che was sitting against the railing, and Cao Ying was wearing a light blue dress wrapped in a fox fur and was playing the piano.

Although Cao Ying was playing the piano, her eyes kept falling on Li Che, and the affection in her eyes was a little embarrassed even when Liu Xuan looked at it, there were no palace maids and eunuchs around, only Cui Laifu stood aside with a whisk.

As soon as Liu Xuan saw Cui Laifu, Cui Laifu looked over, and was about to speak, Liu Xuan immediately shook his head at him.

Cui Laifu could feel that he was coming, so Li Che must have felt it too, he pretended not to know, why did he bother his Yaxing.

Liu Xuan raised the corners of her lips slightly, stepped forward, and when she was about ten steps away from the pavilion, Cao Ying finally discovered her arrival.

Cao Ying looked at Liu Xuan with a smile on her lips, her fingers suddenly shook, and the sound of the piano stopped.

Liu Xuan smiled and walked towards the pavilion, saying as she walked: "Why didn't Concubine Cao play anymore?" Isn't this palace disturbing Concubine Cao's Yaxing? ”

Cao Ying glanced at Li Che very quickly when she heard this, and saw that he had never looked at his mouth or at Liu Xuan, so he smiled and said, "How come?" It's just that when I saw my sister coming, I was shocked for a while. ”

Liu Xuan smiled noncommittally, went straight to the pavilion and sat down, then looked at Li Che, and said with a smile: "I heard that Your Majesty has been enjoying plum blossoms with Cao Guifei every day in the past half a month, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

Li Che's deep eyes flashed with a hint of worry, but his face was still as usual, and his words were also a little cold: "Why doesn't Concubine Ai rest in the palace?" ”

Liu Xuan smiled, lowered her head and played with the nails of her fingertips, then looked up at him and said, "Your Majesty really wants to know?" ”

Li Che didn't speak, but his eyebrows were slightly raised, and his dark eyes revealed a trace of displeasure.

Liu Xuan sighed: "Your Majesty doesn't answer, but the concubine wants to ask Your Majesty, in order to ban the concubine's feet?" ”

She said that she couldn't help but feel a little irritated in her heart, he was always like this, he never told her about anything, he always took care of himself and did what he thought was good for her, but he never wanted to think that he was not such a person who couldn't withstand the wind and rain.

She never wanted to be protected by him in everything, hiding behind him and accepting his arrangement, even if he was for her good.

What she wants is to be able to stand side by side with him, to be able to stand by his side, otherwise she will not toss those industries at all, tossing and wanting to revitalize the Liu family.

Li Che pursed his lips and still didn't answer, Liu Xuan was even more annoyed, if he couldn't let him fully understand his mind today, he was afraid that once something happened in the future, he would still put her aside like this.

At that moment, Liu Xuan showed annoyance, she looked at Li Che and said unceremoniously: "Why didn't Your Majesty answer?" Is it not that you can answer, or that you don't want to answer? Your Majesty, has you forgotten what happened last year? ”

Li Che immediately frowned when he heard this: "Nonsense, go back first, I'll see you later!" ”

Liu Xuan snorted lightly, not listening to his words at all, and looked at him with a resolute look on his face: "Now!" Now! The concubine must know the answer, otherwise the concubine will not go anywhere, if Your Majesty is annoyed, even if someone ties the concubine back! If it doesn't work, it's okay to knock the concubine out and send it back! ”

Li Che knew Liu Xuan, just as Liu Xuan understood him, his handsome face like a god's mansion finally showed some helplessness, he looked at her, and his voice softened: "Don't make trouble, go back first, I'll look for you later." ”

Liu Xuan snorted coldly: "How long will Your Majesty be?" Is it half a moon again? The concubine's words are very clear, and the concubine must know the answer now, at this moment. (To be continued.) )
