Feng Yingying looked out of the window blankly, her pale cheeks, there was no blood, for many days, she sat lonely in the house, drenched in heavy rain for several days, Feng Yingying looked out of the window quietly, watching the raindrops dripping along the edge of the window, she didn't say anything or cry.

A gust of wind blew outside the window, Feng Yingying lowered her head and covered her face with a silk handkerchief, coughed lightly, a trace of red came into Feng Yingying's eyes, she smiled faintly, raised her head and continued to look out the window.

Suddenly, the red-billed parrot in the house cried out, "Coming, coming." ”

Feng Yingying immediately put away the silk handkerchief in her hand, she turned around happily, but saw Ling Xi holding a cloak and walking towards her slowly, she said disappointedly: "Queen Mother, why are you here." ”

"Come and see you, you're much haggard." Ling Xi said distressedly, she gently covered Feng Yingying's body, since Xiang Minghao died early, Xiang Hongxuan has never come to Xiyan Palace, and Xiang Hongxuan also ordered that the nurse take Xiang Yiyi away, even if Feng Yingying is stupid, she also knows that Xiang Hongxuan resents her, blames her, she completely lost Xiang Hongxuan's last bit of love.

Feng Yingying turned around and came to the window again, staring at the rain outside the window, it was raining all over the sky, and it was so dark that she didn't know what time it was, she bowed her head slightly and said, "Is it already dark?" Your Majesty won't come again. ”

Ling Xi approached her and leaned over, Ling Xi also looked at the boundless rainy night outside the window, and said softly: "There are many things in the previous dynasty, Your Majesty is worried, I am afraid that I will not be free." ”

Feng Yuying smiled bitterly and said, "Also, Your Majesty is a Ming Jun, and naturally state affairs are important." ”

The heavy rain outside the window continued to fall, and the crisp sound of rain penetrated into the hearts of Ling Xi and Feng Yingying. There was another gust of wind outside the window, Ling Xi smiled faintly at Feng Yingying, Feng Yingying also smiled slightly, the clammy and cold air was filled with a smell of lies, who could fool anyone? Who can not be deceived?

Ling Xi waved her hand, and the palace people in the house began to light the palace lamp, Ling Xi looked at the warm lights burning in the house, and she said softly: "Concubine Shu, this palace will have dinner in your Xiyan Palace today, you accompany this palace, okay?" ”

Feng Yingying put away her empty eyes looking out of the window, she lowered her head, choked up, and nodded her head gently.

Maybe it was because Feng Yingying was blowing a cold wind, or maybe it was because she was in a depressed mood, during dinner, Feng Yingying didn't eat a few bites at all, Ling Xi asked people to cook a pot of ginger soup, and reluctantly gave Feng Yingying a bowl, Feng Yingying was a little sleepy and fell asleep in bed.

Ling Xi stared at Feng Yingying's thin face, and she asked Aunt An beside her suspiciously, "Aunt An, do you think that Concubine Shu's body is getting sicker and weaker now?" ”

Aunt An glanced at Feng Yingying, who had fallen asleep, and whispered: "Queen Mother, Concubine Shu Niang This is caused by the grief after being hit, after a while, Concubine Shu will forget these painful things, and her body will naturally be much better." ”

Although Aunt An was right, I don't know when it started, Ling Xi already looked sick and weak when she saw Feng Yingying, it seemed that Feng Yingying was originally like this.

Ling Xi walked out of the inner room, the sound of rain hitting the windowsill came faintly, she couldn't help but come to the window, pushed the window open, she stared at the dark rainy night, and asked, "What about Your Majesty?" ”

"Your Majesty has been in Guanju Palace recently." Aunt Ann replied quietly.

Ling Xi was silent for a while and said, "Tell the palace people of Xiyan Palace not to tell Concubine Shu about His Majesty's whereabouts. ”

Suddenly, Aunt Yan eagerly walked into the house, and the rain on her body seemed to be as if she had not had an umbrella, as if she had just been fished out of the water, and she was embarrassed.

"Queen Mother, no, something happened." Aunt Yan said nervously.

Ling Xi was stunned, she looked at the dark rainy night outside the window, it seemed that tonight was destined to be a not peaceful night.

...................................................................................................................

Ling Xi didn't care about the rain falling on her body, she walked quickly in the rainy night, a terrible cry, rippling back and forth in the night, cutting through the sound of rain shrouded in the night, Ling Xi couldn't help but speed up her pace, Aunt Yan who was holding an umbrella for her behind her was almost unable to keep up with her, the rapid raindrops fell on Ling Xi's body, and the cold accompanied by crying went straight to Ling Xi's heart.

Ling Xi approached crying little by little, but the rainy night was too dark, she couldn't see anything, suddenly a lightning bolt crossed the sky, Ling Xi's eyes were startled, only to see Xue Duyan prostrate on the ground with the fifth prince in his arms, Xue Duyan cried with tears in his eyes.

Ling Xi immediately stopped, her body trembled slightly, she didn't know if it was the cold of this rainy night, cold to the bone marrow, or Xue Duyan's grief, which made her empathize.

When Aunt Yan came to her, she only said that someone was crying in the imperial garden on a rainy night, Ling Xi thought that it might be that the harem woman was crazy after falling out of favor, or it could be someone who was crazy after being punished, but she never thought that it would be Xue Duyan, the woman who didn't fight or rob, and what shocked her even more was that Xue Duyan actually hugged the fifth prince and wailed on a rainy night, which was not something that a normal mother could do.

Thunder flashed in the sky, and it seemed that she was also grieving for Xue Duyan, and suddenly a sad thought flashed in Ling Xi's mind, she unconsciously approached Xue Duyan little by little, she gently grabbed Xue Duyan's arm, she looked at the five princes in Xue Duyan's arms, as if she was asleep, no matter how loud the thunder was, and no matter how loud Xue Duyan cried, the five princes closed their eyes to Zimo and lay quietly in Xue Duyan's arms.

Ling Xi trembled and stretched out a hand, wanting to reach the tip of Xiang Zimo's nose, suddenly Xue Duyan grabbed her wrist, cold fingers tightly clasped Ling Xi's wrist, Xue Duyan said loudly: "The fifth prince is just asleep, don't wake him up." ”

The rain rolled down Xue Duyan's face, mixed with tears, flowing on Xue Duyan's face, Xue Duyan's crying red eyes seemed to have an extremely confident look, Ling Xi knew that Xue Duyan believed what she said, and she also wanted Ling Xi to believe it, so that everyone could believe it.

Ling Xi withdrew her wrist, and she said loudly: "Xue Meiren, the rainy night is too cold, take the five princes back to the palace to sleep." ”

As soon as she heard Ling Xi's words, Xue Duyan collapsed again, she hugged Xiang Zimo in her arms, and there was a loud wail, suddenly she looked up at the sky, let the raindrops fall on her face, she cried loudly: "God, please, give me back my son, let me bear all the sins, give me back my son." ”

Ling Xi knew that Xiang Zimo was gone, and Xue Duyan also understood in his heart that Xue Duyan was just unwilling to accept this fact. Ling Xi got up slowly, she pushed Aunt Yan away, there was no umbrella to cover her, the pouring rain hit her body, and the pain was more real.

Ling Xi glanced wistfully in the direction of Guan Ju Palace, Xiang Hongxuan lost two sons in a row, Xiang Hongxuan would not only have grief, he still had more worries.

Suddenly, Xue Duyan beside her stopped crying, Ling Xi looked down and saw that Xue Duyan had already fainted in the rain, Ling Xi immediately leaned over and hugged Xue Duyan, she said loudly: "Come on, send Xue Meiren back to Yaoguang Pavilion." ”

Aunt Yan came to Ling Xi's side with the ginger soup, Ling Xi took the ginger soup and put it in the palm of her hand for a while, she quietly pondered. After tossing for half a night, she finally settled the body of the five princes, and informed Hongxuan that she also informed her, she knew that Xiang Hongxuan would not go to Yaoguang Pavilion tonight, because it was difficult to travel on a rainy night, because it was useless, and because she couldn't face it. And Xue lost his son in the rainy night, and cried in the rain for half a night, afraid that he would be seriously ill.

Inadvertently, Ling Xi coughed lightly, Aunt Yan frowned, and urged: "Queen Mother, you better drink this ginger soup quickly." If you get sick, it's not good. ”

Ling Xi lowered her head and took a sip of ginger soup, the spicy taste rolled in her mouth, but a warm current immediately flowed into her body, it seemed that the cold just now had been dissipated, she looked at the hot ginger soup in her hand, this is indeed a good product to ward off the cold and warm the heart, but unfortunately no amount of ginger soup can warm Xiang Zimo's cold heart.

"Aunt Yan, tomorrow you go to Yaoguang Pavilion and send more supplements to Xue Meiren, I'm afraid she will be too sad tonight."

Aunt Yan lowered her head and sneered, and said, "Queen Mother, you, your heart is too soft, Xue Meiren is not as fragile as you imagined, at least she is sensible tonight." ”

"What does Aunt Yan mean by this?"

Aunt Yan lowered her head, some past events appeared in front of her, and she said lightly: "Queen Mother, she is not the only one in this harem who has lost her son, you, Concubine Shu and Mrs. Zhao, and countless women in this harem have lost their sons, but who has cut out their grief heart for everyone to see, it is too late to take care of their grief, who has the courage to show mercy to others?" ”

Ling Xi was stunned, she slowly put down the soup bowl in her hand, looked thoughtful, and asked, "Are you saying that Xue Meiren's crying on a rainy night just now was intentional?" ”

"So what's not? There is nothing more pitiful than crying for a child on a rainy night. Aunt Yan said lightly.

Ling Xi's eyebrows frowned slightly, she shook her head slightly, and said: "No, if Xue Meiren wants to compete for favor, she doesn't need to rely on mercy, and after she entered the palace, she has always been non-fighting or grabbing, there is no need to do this." ”

"Queen Mother, what if Xue Meiren is not here to compete for favor? There are many princes in this harem who died early, children are difficult to raise, and there have been many princes who have died in the past dynasties, and it is normal for harem women to lose their children. But don't you think it's strange? Xue Meiren made such a fuss, His Majesty's heart was afraid that it was not easy, maybe Xue Meiren noticed something, maybe the death of the five princes was not so simple. ”

Ling Xi couldn't help but get up, she seemed to think of something, she looked at Aunt Yan and asked, "Aunt Yan, are you thinking too much?" ”

Aunt Yan smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Queen Mother, don't worry, Xue Meiren's big drama of losing her son and crying on a rainy night, whether it is true or false, just see." ”
