Looking at Ye Qingtian's expression of leaving at the end, Concubine Shu sighed in her heart, how could anyone who has been prosperous in the palace for a long time be truly stupid. When you understand when you are confused, you have a scale in your heart, but whether this scale is high or low depends on the master's mind.

Concubine Shugui changed her face: "Lord Mingyue, this palace doesn't know that you attach so much importance to this maid, I haven't been in the palace for a long time, and I saw that the maid has a little ~ The forehead is overdue, after all, it is ...... Well, you know. Isn't this all for the sake of the county lord, a misunderstanding and a misunderstanding, the emperor, don't be angry, you don't have to be angry. ”

Emperor Min's eyes narrowed slightly, the majesty of the dragon was slightly collected before, Concubine Shugui's mother was the general of the border Wula Junba, and her uncle was the leader of the guards of the forbidden army in Dayan City, and they all commanded Ye Qingtian. Concubine Shugui is favored because of her beauty, but there are not thousands of beauties in this palace, but there are hundreds of beauties, how can she be born because she won the favor of the emperor, and more because of the strong mother's family, even Emperor Min is also relied on.

Emperor Min looked at Nian Xiaojiao's somewhat aggrieved face, and then thought of yesterday's true face, and was moved, and only Yuan Cheng could give birth to a daughter who was like a sign of aura. No matter how biased his heart is, it can't show the dew, and it's okay to make a small fuss in the harem, if it chills the heart of the old courtiers and causes the court to be unstable, then the gains outweigh the losses.

"It's a misunderstanding, let's all disperse today, Xiaojiao, you take this little girl back to rest early. Xiao Xiangzi, don't you hurry up and announce the imperial doctor to the Moon Palace! ”

Nian Xiaojiao also knows that if she continues to make trouble today, she is afraid that she will not be able to please anything, but now it is most important to hurry up and heal Qing Yu's injuries, as for the rest, it will be a long time to come. She followed the emperor's words and said: "Uncle Emperor Xie, Xiaojiao will take Qing Yu back to the Moon Palace and wait for the imperial doctor." ”

Waiting for Nian Xiaojiao to have already left, Concubine Shugui looked at Emperor Min delicately: "Your Majesty, Qingning Palace has boiled the best Tianshan Snow Lotus Soup today, and you will go over and drink a bowl in the evening after you are busy with government affairs?" ”

Emperor Min waved his hand at him and swaggered towards the outside of Fengxiang Palace.

Concubine Shu called behind her: "Your Majesty, do you agree or not?" ”

"Okay, hahahaha!" Emperor Min did not stop, laughed and replied, and a bright yellow dragon robe disappeared at the gate of Fengxiang under the gaze of the queen mother and Shu Guifei.

In the queen's palace, the lady concubine is like a face-slapping robbery, the dignified and virtuous queen can't do this, but it doesn't affect her jealousy, her heart is extremely unhappy, and she has to dress generously on her face, and smile gently: "Concubine Shu also step down, I got up early today, and the palace is lacking." ”

On the second day, Nian Xiaojiao was still dreaming of Zhuang Zhou playing with butterflies in bed, and she heard Yedi chatting with other little girls in the compound.

"Have you heard, the emperor stayed in Qingning Palace last night, and when he woke up in the middle of the night, he heard that he had bumped into a ghost, and he was very frightened, and he fled back to his Huashou Palace before dawn."

"I heard a scream last night, which resounded throughout the palace, that terrible sound, could it be the emperor?"

"Early in the morning, the maid of Qingning Palace came out to pick the morning dew of tea, I specially inquired, I heard that it was not a ghost, you guys come over and point it, it's ......"

At this point, the voice lowered, and after a while, everyone said in unison: "Oh~~~"

Nian Xiaojiao, who was half-asleep and half-awake, heard this, and unconsciously pulled a smile on the corner of her mouth.

For a few days of gossip in the palace, from time to time you can see the servants of three or three together muttering in a low voice, various versions of the story into Nian Xiaojiao's ears, Nian Xiaojiao just took it as a joke, and then told the maid guards on duty in the Moon Palace that it was okay to listen to the news, and never go outside to say, it was not heard by someone with a heart. If you end up sitting at home, the consequences of the pot coming from the sky are not good.

In the tense atmosphere in the palace, the wind changed again in a few days, and began to put up lights and set up a stage, Emperor Min's birthday, the palace was ready to celebrate, Emperor Min said, the content is not important, the scene should be gorgeous and pompous enough, in order to show the strong strength of the great country.

According to the requirements of Emperor Min, the lanterns in the palace have been hung from the palace to the Huazhang Hall on weekdays, with three steps, a small lamp, five steps, and a large lamp, which is enough to hang eight thousand and one hundred lights; The stage was set up on the nine-roofed platform, and the banquet prepared nine meats, nine vegetables and nine wines......

All because Zhang Tianshi of Guozijian said that nine is a good number, ninety-nine to one, ninety-nine double yang, auspicious and longevity.

The birthday unfolded in a festive atmosphere. The Chinese military officials ordered their wives to enter the palace and participate in the most lively banquet in the palace in the past five years.

At the beginning of the feast, I watched the play on the nine-day platform, and the drama on the stage was in full swing and lively, which just made the whole scene lively, and the contact and emotional exchange of three or two groups became simple, and the sound of the play was big enough that the separation of one person may not be very clear. Such an environment is the easiest to gossip, how can the wives of civil and military officials miss the opportunity?

"Why don't you see Concubine Shu today? Isn't she the best for such a lively scene, every time she has a small party or a big party, she always has to dress up and show off her beauty. ”

"Hey, haven't you heard, Concubine Shu has a rash, her whole head is swollen like a pig's head, and it's very oozing."

"My husband said that the emperor may be too scared to do anything. Recently, everyone in the court has been in danger, and the emperor is the volcano that erupts at any time, and he will suffer if he is not careful. The Holy One is in a very bad mood! ”

……

Nian Xiaojiao sat lazily on the armchair, and Qing Yu beside her diligently handed over the snacks on the small table, melon seeds, dried fruits, and dried meat. While watching the play, I listened to the gossip of the people around me, so it was pleasant. is really three women in one play, and many women have enough plays, which are more exciting than the play books on the stage. And she, the initiator, can still take a leisurely stroll.

People outside the play, outsiders in the game.

Wonderful.

Nian Xiaojiao was leisurely eating the dried fruit handed over by Qing Yu, and she didn't see it after eating at this time, so she reminded aloud:

"Gardenia."

Qing Yu held a dried fruit, did not move, and looked straight ahead. Nian Xiaojiao followed her gaze and looked forward, only to see a majestic middle-aged man walking over, full of luxury, the person who came was the only prince of the opposite sex in Jin Liao Kingdom, King Jiang Yu, he sat on the empty seat on the side of the first row in the greeting of colleagues, and from time to time colleagues greeted him. No wonder Qing Yu looked straight, it turned out to be King Jiang Yu.

Nian Xiaojiaofu searched for Princess Jiang and their daughters in the crowd again, and sure enough, they were found among the female guests, and it seems that Qing Yu's matter should be put on the agenda.

"Qing Gardenia, this place is lively, but it is boring after all. You accompany me to Ziding Lake for rowing, Yedi, you invite Princess Jiang to come over, and say that there is an old friend looking for each other twenty years ago. ”

Hearing this, Qing Yu still didn't know what Nian Xiaojiao wanted, and for a while, she had mixed tastes, and she hadn't thought about how to face it: "County Lord, is this inappropriate?" ”

"It's always going to be faced." Nian Xiaojiao patted the back of Qing Yu's hand with relief, and took the lead in getting up and walking out.

“……”

Qing Yu was silent, absentmindedly following behind her.

Nian Xiaojiao and Qing Gardenia looked at the weeping willows on the shore of Ziding Lake, the willows in winter, only the bones and no leaves, still swaying out of a very graceful state. Gently caressing the surface of the turquoise lake, stirring up countless ripples, rippling in a circle towards the distance, not calm, like the heart of the green gardenia.

In the anticipation of Qing Yu, a figure finally appeared on the sheep intestine trail in the distance, and when he saw the person, Nian Xiaojiao and Qing Yu took a few steps to meet him.

"Princess Jiang An, in Xia Mingyue County Lord, I have seen the princess."

"It turned out to be the Lord of Mingyue, I don't know what to do with me?"

"Look." Nian Xiaojiao pointed to Qing Yu, who had been bowing her head and was silent, under Nian Xiaojiao's hint, Qing Yu raised her head and showed Princess Jiang a face that was somewhat similar to her, and Princess Jiang was stunned on the spot for a while.

"Girl?"

"Her name is Qing Yu, and she has been an orphan since she was a child, until she ......" Nian Xiaojiao paused, looked at Princess Jiang's incredulous gaze and continued: "Until a few days ago, on the way to Dayan, I met King Jiang Yu and you, as well as your daughter, and found that Qing Yu and your daughter looked like Xiao eight points, and you were also Xiao three points, so I felt strange, how could there be such a coincidence in the world?" Princess Jiang, do you know? ”

Princess Jiang's eyes were filled with mist and burst into tears: "God has mercy, your name is Qing Yu?" ”

"Yes."

"If that's right, you're my daughter." Princess Jiang shook Qing Yu's hand and said in a choked voice: "Good boy, I have suffered all these years. ”

"Fortunately, Senluo Hall took good care of me, and there was no shortage of food and clothing."

Hearing that Princess Jiang hugged Qing Yu into her arms, feeling Qing Yu's stiff body resisting, Princess Jiang moved softly for fear of startling the girl, and she wiped her tears for a long time, and her eyes were already red:

"Qing Yu, the doctor said that I was pregnant with twin sons, and when I was about to give birth, the lord was fighting in the army, and I was inconvenient because of my heavy body, so I gave the concubine in the house an opportunity to take advantage of it, and I was victimized by it and fell hard.

It was that fall that caused me to have a difficult birth, which can be described as nine deaths, and I desperately gave birth to you and became unconscious. When I woke up, they told me that the two children were weak, and that one of them had died silently within a few minutes of birth, and that it had been dealt with, and that it was not for me to see anything unclean, so they did not show it to me, saying that it had been put in a wooden basin and floated away along the river.

I chased to the river, but there was nothing. Every year on your birthday, I go to the river to put an immortal lamp to bless you with a safe and smooth reincarnation. God has mercy on me, and I will return you. ”

Princess Jiang has suppressed her sorrow for many years, hugged Qing Yu and cried, crying in grief, and scared away a pair of swans foraging by the lake.

Qing Yu was also in tears, she patted Princess Jiang's shoulder awkwardly, the woman in her arms was like the mother she imagined, a soft and gentle mother who loved her children, but she was used to being independent since she was a child, and she was still a little unaccustomed to such a scene.

Only in one sentence:

"I'm back."
