Jin Shen and Geyan came all the way, and finally arrived in Tengxiao Country.

Jin Shen looked at the glorious regent palace plaque in front of him, and then looked at the familiar and unfamiliar palace in front of him, and said to himself with a smile: "This mountain can still accommodate two tigers!" When Ge Yan heard what Jin Shen said, he suddenly thought of something, so he leaned into Jin Shen's ear and said, "Of course it can accommodate two tigers, as long as there is a male and a female!" Jin Shen laughed directly after hearing this.

Si Kouxi heard Jinshen's laughter before he reached the door, such a hearty laugh is a bit long gone, it seems that Geyan didn't choose the wrong girl. She smiled and walked to the door, looked at Jin Shen and said, "I heard your laughter from afar!" There's something funny about it that makes me happy. ”

Jin Shen wanted to tease his sister, but as soon as he saw Xiaoxi's stomach, he paused. Or Ge Yan rushed over first, gently stroked Xiaoxi's belly, and exclaimed, "Sister, is your belly already so big?" I remember it was only about six months old! Xiao Xi replied with a smile: "Yes, this kid is big." ”

Lan Jing beckoned everyone to hurry in, and Jin Shen walked to her sister's side, and had a chance to feel the child well. When Si Kouxi asked him to touch the child, Jin Shen hesitated again and again before stretching out his trembling hand, and his heart fluttered wildly with excitement. It took a while to recover from the excitement of meeting his future little nephew.

He remembered to ask his sister what was the urgency. Si Kouxi felt a headache when she thought of that complicated matter, she wanted to wait until Si Kouyu came back and said it together, she didn't want to say it twice, it was too troublesome! She was relieved and said, "Don't worry, I'll talk about it tomorrow." Let's take a rest first, I'm tired all the way, so I'll go to Hefu to visit my aunt in the afternoon, so that my aunt can see Geyan. ”

Ge Yan, who was sitting on the side, was said to be a little shy, and Jin Shen felt that there was no problem with his sister's arrangement, so he agreed. But he was still curious about what his sister was going to say, and it was clear that his sister's anxiety was everywhere on the raft, otherwise he would not have been in such a hurry. If it weren't for Ge Yan's ability to ride horses, the other girls would have been tired and lying down.

Si Kouxi looked at the back of Jin Shen leaving, sighed lightly, and said, "I hope he won't be too shocked when he hears about that tomorrow." Lan Jing stood on Si Kouxi's side and snorted coldly: "It's impossible!" Xiao Xi couldn't help but glance at the extraordinary-looking man, hissed in his mouth, and said strangely: "What's the matter, I found that you always like to me recently!" ”

Lan Jing spread his hands and said casually: "It's not that I'm going to do it against you, it's that you haven't been able to listen to the truth recently." Xiaoxi was a little discouraged, but she didn't want to hear the truth recently, since her mother told her about those things, coupled with Yan Yi's investigation. Si Kouxi listened to the truth every day, and she became more and more troubled when she listened, and she didn't want to hear the truth more and more, she gently leaned on Lan Jing's shoulder and said, "I suddenly understand the meaning of loyalty. ”

At this time, it was Lan Jing's turn to roll his eyes, and he said bitterly: "Xi'er, I beg you, stop using these words indiscriminately." In any case, you have read the books of the sages, and these words do not apply to such a scenario at all! Don't teach bad boys! Xiaoxi disagreed, and muttered: "You just need to understand what I mean, I just don't want to hear these truths, and I don't want to face these things." Also, our child must be very smart, he will understand what I mean, and he will not learn badly. ”

Lan Jing looked at her Xiaoxi, put her arms around her shoulders, and accompanied her to look at the flowers that were gradually blooming in the yard and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely be able to overcome everything, and the child will be fine, but I don't guarantee that the child will be smart, so you should pay attention when you speak." ”

Xiao Xi took Lan Jing's hand on her shoulder, and said arrogantly, "I'm not afraid at all. But our child must be smart, he will be like you, look at you, how smart! Lan Jing couldn't help but blush when he was praised by Si Kouxi, well, when he heard Xiaoxi say that the child is like him, he was still a little happy, and he couldn't help praying in his heart: Child, you must be smart! That's how I was like a father!

He wanted to get some rest, but unfortunately, he was seen by officials of the Ministry of Rites when he entered Kyoto. After Jinshen ascended the throne, he not only sent Si Kou Xi to the Jianian Dynasty, but also sent officials from the Ministry of Rites there. The ability of the Ministry of Rites officials to memorize the face of every dignitary is simply a basic skill, let alone the face of the emperor of the Carnival Dynasty. He saw that the emperor and a woman went directly in the direction of the regent's palace, and he didn't plan to go to the palace for a long time.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites felt that it was really unruly for the emperor of the Jianian Dynasty to stay in the regent palace instead of seeing the emperor, so he led a group of ministers into the palace to face the saint. Lan Qiong felt a headache when she looked at these ministers standing in front of her, because they had been trying very hard to persuade them to go to the Regent's Mansion and bring Jinshen to the palace.

Although Jinshen is his cousin, we have not been together for a long time, and the feeling of sympathy in my heart is more because of a kind of blood thicker than water, and a kind of sympathy from comrades-in-arms on the battlefield. But Jin Shen still has a deeper relationship with his sister-in-law, and if he goes to pick him up by himself, people will only be more uncomfortable.

But these ministers were happy to persuade them, and Lan Qiong finally couldn't stand it anymore, put down the music in her hand, and set up the regent palace, so that these ministers could stop. It's not a stop, it's just that Lan Qiong's ears are finally clear, and those ministers are still enthusiastically discussing how to hold a reception banquet for the emperor of the Jianian Dynasty in the carriage behind.

The emperor's carriage came to the regent palace in person, attracting a bunch of onlookers, who thought something big had happened!

Lan Jing was walking in the courtyard with Xi'er, and it was time to exercise, when the two heard the housekeeper running to say that the emperor was coming with many ministers. Both of them were stunned, usually Lan Qiong came to the palace secretly, what he hated the most was the group of tails behind him, why did he bring them today. Lan Jing looked at the housekeeper and asked, "Did the emperor say anything?" ”

The housekeeper remembered what the emperor said, so he replied to his prince and said: "The emperor said that he wanted to see the emperor of the Carnival Dynasty, and the old slave is strange, where is this emperor in our house!" "The old housekeeper didn't know Jinshen's true identity, only that he was the princess's younger brother.

Xiao Xi asked Lan Jing to go to see the emperor first, and he went to wake up Jin Shen himself. The housekeeper followed Lan Jing away, and Yan Shu helped Si Kouxi to find Jinshen. Xiaoxi asked a few waiters in Jinshen's courtyard, and they said that Jinshen was resting in it and had never come out. Xiao Xi let go of Yan Shu's hand, slowly pushed open the door of the house, and quietly entered alone.

The room was silent, and the sound of soft, steady breathing came from the bedroom, and it seemed that Jin Shen was really asleep. Xiao Xi didn't make a sound, walked to the side of Jinshen's bed, and sat down slowly. She felt satisfied when she looked at Jin Shen's steady sleeping appearance, the more Jin Shen grew up, the more similar He Shu's eyebrows and eyes became, Jin Shen grew up like this, Xiao Xi felt that she had an explanation for her aunt, and Jin Shen could be regarded as living up to her aunt's early teachings.

Xiao Xi gently hooked the corners of her mouth, raised a hand and patted Jinshen's shoulder, and said gently: "Jinshen, Jinshen, it's time to get up, someone is in the palace······" Jin Shen felt that there was always a voice in his ears calling him, but it was a little different from the voice he usually heard. He was so tired that he didn't want to open his eyes, but the soft voice seemed to have a magical power to push him to open his eyes.

Jin Shen slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were still a little blurry, but a woman with a smile looked at him so gently, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this person was like his mother, so he called out weakly: "Queen Mother." The smile on Xiao Xi's face stiffened slightly, and the hand that patted Jin Shen's shoulder stopped to the side and did not move.

Jin Shin came to his senses when he realized what he had shouted, and he never allowed himself to expose his thoughts about his mother to outsiders. He knew that his mother was dead, but he still recognized the wrong person. He saw clearly that the person in front of him was his sister, and immediately sat up, and asked in a clear voice, "Sister, what's wrong?" ”

Xiao Xi had already regained her smile, stood up straight, and said, "Lan Qiong is here, and there are some ministers. It is estimated that the matter of your coming to Tengxiao Kingdom was known to the minister, and everyone wants to see you. Hurry up and freshen up and go meet you! Jin Shen nodded, and was ready to get up.

Xiaoxi turned around and was about to go out, but when she walked to the door of the bedroom, she still stopped, turned her head slightly and said, "Jinshen, eldest sister is like a mother, my aunt is gone, you still have me." With that, he turned his head and went out slowly. Jin Shen sat on the edge of the bed and watched Si Kouxi finish saying that sentence to himself with half of his face sideways. He knew that his sister must have heard about the fact that he had just called his mother, he had always pretended to be strong, and he had not shown any of his grief, he just didn't want his sister to worry too much about him, but now he still made his sister worry after all.

When Si Kouxi came out of Jinshen, his face was a little wrong, and he didn't say a word on the way back to Jingyuan. Yan Shu also accompanied quietly, Xiao Xi pulled Yan Shu in front of her, held her hand and asked, "Yan Shu, what was your mood when your father left?" ”

If Si Kouxi asked about pharmacology, Yan Shu would definitely be able to answer it fluently, but at this time she was a little dumbfounded, it was not that she didn't know how to answer Si Kouxi's question, but she couldn't describe how she felt about losing her father at all. In the end, she also said: "Princess, what mood you were at the beginning, I was in what mood I was." ”

Si Kouxi said in a trance: "Really? Yan Shu, in fact, I don't know how to understand Jin Shen's feelings, he has been very strong all these years, but I know that it is fake, but I don't know how to comfort him. After all, he lost his mother, and I may have a hard time understanding his pain. Si Kouxi rubbed Yan Shu's hands with some uneasiness as she spoke.

Yan Shu noticed that Xiao Xi's hands were a little sweaty, she held Si Kou Xi's hand tightly, and said to her boss Kou Xi's eyes: "Princess, you have to believe what I said." When my father left, I was in the mood of you. You have always regarded these elders who help you take care of you as your dearest people. When you lose them, you are no less disappointed and hesitant than we are, so you must not say that. I think that your efforts to help Emperor Mu regain Empress Dowager He's country are the best comfort to him. Your company now is the best comfort to him. It's the same for me. ”

Si Kouxi looked at the serious girl in front of her, she digested Yan Shu's words for a while, and then nodded, without any more sadness.

On the way to Jingyuan, Ge Yan shouted: "Sister! When Si Kouxi heard the voice, she immediately took a deep breath before retracting the sourness in her nose, and she quickly wiped away the tears that had not yet had time to shed from the corners of her eyes. As soon as she turned around, she smiled and greeted the cigarette.

Yan Shu slowly stepped aside, she looked at Si Kouxi, who was talking to Ge Yan with a smile at this time, and sighed a little. She sincerely hoped that the palace master would not have those thoughts just now, because in her opinion, the palace master had sent the best comfort to everyone, at least for her.

On the day her father left, Yan Shu didn't cry like everyone else, but just knelt quietly beside her father and looked at her father's peaceful face. She knew that crying could not save her father, so she didn't cry. Everyone else thought that Yan Shu might not be so sad, but only Si Kouxi would accompany him to kneel in front of his father's spiritual seat every night, and he quietly stayed by the side without saying a word. Finally, on the night of her father's burial, Yan Shu hugged Si Kouxi and cried all night. Si Kouxi still didn't say a word, just hugged her until she was tired of crying and fell asleep.

Yan Shu felt that only Si Kouxi in the world knew that she didn't cry, not because she wasn't sad or scared stupid, but because she didn't want to cry in front of her father. When she was a child, Yan Shu cried when she encountered a little thing, and Yan Shu's father taught her that girls should be strong and not shed tears at every turn. And as a doctor, you must maintain a steady and immobile posture in order to give the patient a sense of security. If even the doctor is crying, what will the patient do? So Yan Shu doesn't like to cry, and she doesn't like to cry in front of her father.

When her father was buried, she could finally cry. At that time, Si Kouxi had always been by her side, and that kind of companionship was more powerful than any words of comfort. Whenever she wants to cry, someone will lend her a hug, give her a warmth, and tell her that there are still people in this world who are willing to be her companions!

The next day, Yan Shushi woke up on her couch, and when she saw Si Kouxi again, she didn't mention what happened last night at all, and just handed over various tasks and the Vermilion Bird Tower to her. Some people think that Si Kouxi is in a hurry, so Yan Shu should be allowed to take a break again. But the people who know you best won't do that, they will just cover your wounds and help them forget their sorrows.

Si Kouxi helped her through the most desperate moment of her life, which is also the reason why she followed Si Kouxi with all her heart in this life. She hopes that Si Kouxi can have this day every year, and every year has today.
