Chapter 111: Out of the Palace
"Your Majesty, the concubines have always had something to say, and I wanted to wait for the emperor's pain of losing a child to ease a little, but now it seems that I can't wait." She walked towards him, but did not salute and greet him, but Dingqing looked at him: "The emperor's favor and concubines are only afraid that they will not be blessed to receive it, and the great Xuan cannot be succeeded by anyone, and the concubines beg the emperor to give up the idea of not living with others, and let the sisters spread out for the royal family, and the concubines begged!" ”
After speaking, the woman bowed down.
"This is the demeanor that the royal harem should have, concubine, you really didn't disappoint the mourning family." The Empress Dowager Hyoto praised with deep satisfaction.
Xuan Lili felt that his heart had been cut through a small opening, and blood was slowly oozing outward, and the pain was also slow, but it was long, "Get up." He leaned down and lifted her up with his own hands, his eyes filled with regret and distress.
"The Queen Mother has won the award, this is the duty of the monarch and concubine."
It's not that it's not painful, it's not that it's not wronged, but it's more of a responsibility that she has to bear, perhaps, this qiē is her fate.
"Your Majesty, you comfort and comfort her, and go to see Concubine Ying."
The two silently sent the Queen Mother away, Xuan Lili took her hand and walked to the carved dragon throne and sat down, taking her in his arms, "It's been a month, why haven't you gained a little fat?" The woman's body was so thin that he felt a little gruntled, and he was constantly worried about her health.
"Is Lonely Leave disgusting Si'er?" The atmosphere was a little depressing, and Dou Lianyi deliberately sneered.
Xuan Lili was really anxious: "You know that Lili doesn't mean that, but you're worried about your body, you have also taken a lot of this medicine, and you make up for it every day, but you don't see it all the time, and in my opinion, Imperial Doctor Xu's medical skills are getting worse and worse." ”
"You, have you ever heard of a sentence that illness is like a thread, and if you are not good, you blame the doctor, how can there be such a thing." She smoothed his brows one by one, but as soon as she smoothed it here, she twisted it in one place again, and she couldn't help but be discouraged: "Can you not frown, Si'er can't be smoothed, I really don't have a sense of accomplishment." ”
Hearing this, he finally couldn't help laughing: "I didn't expect Si'er's sense of accomplishment to be so low, isn't it just not frowning, it's not simple, in order to satisfy your sense of achievement, I promise you that you won't wrinkle in the future." ”
"Seriously." But she got up from his arms and shouted as if she had gained a lot of money: "The emperor said that the horse is difficult to chase." ”
He was deeply moved and infected by her innocence and innocence, raised his eyebrows and smiled, and responded humorously: "I am the Son of Heaven, I am a man of my word, let alone a horse, even eight horses can't pull it back." ”
"Great, the emperor's brows will no longer be twisted in the future, and the people in the palace will not see the emperor like a cat, everyone lives together in friendship, do you say?" Later, her eyes were full of longing, and she looked at him expectantly.
What a silly woman, he sighed, but he couldn't bear to break her dream, touching her smooth forehead with his forehead, and rubbing his nose lightly: "It's okay to say anything." ”
As time passed, Dou Lianyi's body slowly recovered, but when he thought of the lost child, his heart still hurt, and he was afraid that it would take some time to come out of the pain.
One day, Xuan Lili suddenly offered to take her out of the palace to relax.
"Really?" Her eyes widened in disbelief when she heard this.
It's been a long time since I've seen her happy appearance, the more he is afraid that he thinks his idea is good, and he smiles and points to his lips: "Be quiet, don't let others, especially the Queen Mother, know, otherwise they will scold me." ”
"Uh-huh." She nodded vigorously, and sure enough, she was silent, but her eyes were shining, and her face was glowing with joy, which swept away his worries and depression.
The high-headed carriage stopped outside the palace gate, and the four guards pretended to be attendants on the side, and the head of the horse jumped down to a person, holding a horse whip and arching his hands: "The last general will invite the emperor and the concubine to get on the car." ”
"Xiaobai?"
Dou Ripple blurted out.
Yue Mubai was stunned, and respectfully asked: "What do you want from Concubine Li?" ”
"No, I just suddenly remembered that time, the emperor called you Xiaobai, and I thought it was fun." Dou Lianyi thought of the dog called "Xiaobai" at home again, his eyebrows and eyes were bent, and he couldn't stop laughing.
Yue Mubai's forehead faintly showed three black lines, his expression was a little crying and laughing, and he muttered in a low voice: "What's so interesting about people's names." ”
"What, you're not convinced?" Xuan Lili raised his eyebrows.
The light question that was not stained by the wind and dust made the young and handsome man look awe-inspiring, "The last general will not dare." ”
Her lips were slightly proud, and she got into the carriage with the support of Xuan Lili's courtesy, he followed into the carriage, and the sedan curtain was lowered, but when he heard Xiaobai's "driving", the carriage got it, and drove forward steadily.
Outside the palace, it will take a while to enter the lively market, Dou Lianyi can't wait, and his elbows are on his legs with a yearning face: "Your Majesty, you take me to visit the overpass, go to Deyue Tower for dinner, and then go to see the city scene, and also, go to listen to Xue Xuan and listen to the play, okay?" ”
The man smiled silently.
"Okay?" His attitude was unfathomable, making people uncertain, Dou Lianyi hugged his legs and swayed, like a playful child desperately begging adults to take her out to have fun.
The shallow lips finally hooked a hearty smile, and Xuan Lian nodded at her little nose: "I will take you to these places in the future, and I will go to the one you want to go to the most today." ”
What would she most like to go?
Since childhood, she has lived a secluded life in a small courtyard, and she wants to go out in her dreams.
"Where is that? Your Majesty, sue me. ”
He smiled but didn't answer, making him mysterious: "You'll know when you go." ”
Well, Dou Lianyi simply didn't ask, perhaps, it would be a huge surprise.
Through the small window, there is still a royal square outside, there is nothing to see except the blue sky and white clouds, she suddenly smiled mysteriously, stretched out her hand to open the sedan curtain, and asked the back of the car: "Xiaobai, how old are you this year?" ”
"Hui Li Concubine Niangniang, the end will be 23 years old this year." The man was so absorbed in the car that he did not look back.
By the way, he is the same age as the emperor, and he accompanies the emperor as a companion when he is a child, and when he grows up, he is his personal guard, and he guards him every time the emperor goes out on patrol.
"The emperor has been married for many years, why are you still not married, but you have an interest?"
The carriage tossed slightly in her questioning, and Xuan Lili scolded with a smile: "As soon as you ask about family affairs, you can't be stable, if you overturn the car, be careful of your skin." ”
"Your Majesty, this is your fault, Xiaobai has followed you for so many years, and he is loyal, and he doesn't care about it as a master." Dou Lianyi wanted to get the scene of Yue Mubai's head dripping sweat after being scolded, and played with a wicked smile.
Uh, Xuan Lonely raised his lips and squinted at her: "Listen to the tone, do you have a candidate?" ”
"If I have a sister, I will definitely let the emperor point it out to him." She blurted out, and suddenly found that when she was speechless, she couldn't stop it.
Fortunately, he didn't notice it, laughed heartily, and the sunlight projected on his handsome face through the sedan curtain, like a layer of light gold, which became more and more dazzling.
"Xiaobai, you see how much she values you, and she wants to be related to you, but you have something to say." Xuan Lili also helped her play with her.
Yue Mubai was embarrassed and breathless, raised his hands above his head, and helplessly begged for mercy: "The two masters are very benevolent, let go of the small ones." ”
Gegege......
Dou Lianyi's hand loosened and lowered the sedan curtain, and he fell on his lap and laughed wildly, the long-lost laughter, like the song of a lark, echoed in the empty square, plucking his heartstrings lightly, and the doting at the bottom of his eyes was a little thicker.
The carriage got it and moved forward unhurriedly.
When he heard the first noise, the sedan curtain was opened by the people outside, and Yue Mubai's heroic face had a trace of solemnity: "Young master, you're out of the imperial city." ”
"Hmm." The man in the car replied nonchalantly.
"Young Master?"
Dou Lianyi was lying on his lap, sat up straight all of a sudden, repeated the title with interest, and pointed his nose with his backhand: "Then what am I?" ”
"You're a young grandmother." A chuckle tugged on Xuan Lonely Li's lips.
Her eyes lit up suddenly, she tilted her head slightly, and murmured: "Young master, young grandmother." ”
Look at his outfit again, a blue shirt, although it is not as sacred and majestic as the bright yellow imperial robe, but it makes him so handsome, with a gold crown on his head, only a belt to tie his black hair, chic but playful, and a big family of gentlemen and brothers.
Inexplicably overjoyed, she declared loudly, "I like it." ”
"Young grandmother of the Xuan family, can you be a little more reserved, like a young grandmother?" He desperately tried to hold back the smile that overflowed from the inside out, and pretended to remind him sternly.
She let out an "oh" and sat down with her tongue out, and a long cry came from outside: "Selling hair cakes, fresh and hot hair cakes, selling hair cakes......"
The woman immediately threw aside the image of the young grandmother, threw herself to the window, opened the curtain and saw that it was so lively outside, people came and went, and there were many buildings on both sides.
"I'm going to eat the cake." When I was a child, my mother used to buy them and tell her about the excitement outside while watching her eat.
Seeing her twisting her head and looking at herself, he had no reason not to agree, "Xiaobai, go buy it." The carriage stopped on the side of the road amid the sound of "hooting", and the coachman, who was called Xiaobai, jumped out of the car, caught up with the load in front of him, paid the money, took a paper bag and ran back, and handed it into the car.
The fragrant smell then spread, and Dou Lianyi couldn't wait to take it, pinched a piece of white, soft, and glutinous and sent it to his mouth, "Hmm, it's so fragrant." ”
She ate with relish, and from time to time she chirped, and someone could not help laughing, and the woman suddenly remembered something, took the food from her lips, and sent it to him: "You eat it too." ”
