Chapter 228: Xiao Xiao Twilight Blows the Red Leaves (3)
Hagi Mountain, where Chunxi Palace is located, has been renovated.
All kinds of precious flowers and fruit trees are nourished with the finest medicinal dew to ensure that they bloom and are fragrant all year round.
If it were in the past, Qing Ling would definitely have asked someone to send the account book, carefully check the number, and then find out the poor and extravagant people behind it, and punish them severely. Or crackling through the account books, constantly muttering: Wouldn't it be better and more cost-effective to use so much money for something?
However, at this moment, she was just half-lying on the beauty couch placed among the flowers, and she didn't bother to move.
Little Emperor Ji and Xi were playing a game of catching butterflies in the garden, and from time to time they ran to Qingling to "offer treasures"—
"Auntie, look at this one! It's pretty! ”
"Auntie, I can use my divine powers! I just pointed at them and stopped them all! ”
"Auntie, Sister Jane doesn't allow me to use my divine power! I don't want her to follow me! ”
Xi'er's little person climbed onto the beauty couch where Qingling was resting, and said coquettishly: "Tell Sister Zhen and ask her not to follow me!" ”
Qing Ling stood up, took out a silk handkerchief to wipe away the sweat on Xi'er's head, and coaxed: "You are still young, you can't control your divine power well, and you are easy to hurt people." When I was your age, my master wouldn't allow me to use my divine power casually. ”
"Really?"
Xi'er tilted her head and rolled a pair of dark eyes, "Auntie's master is also so bad?" ”
She was still young, but she talked a lot.
Qing Ling thought in his heart more than once, if this little girl, if she didn't look like Mu Chen, it would be really hard for people to believe that she would be his daughter.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but touch her lower abdomen.
I don't know who this kid looks more like?
How good would it be if God blessed her to have a child who resembles Xiao Qi......
From the entrance to the garden came a cold shout:
"Hexi!"
Immediately after, someone quickly stepped forward and hugged Xi'er.
Mu Chen was wearing a heavy brocade white robe, and his inky black eyes deepened and deepened, staring at Xi'er who was picked up by the guards, "How many times have I warned you?" so that you are not allowed to lean on your aunt. ”
With two tears in her eyes, Xi'er glanced at her father timidly, and she didn't dare to come out.
He told his aunt that she had a baby in her belly, so she couldn't lie on her stomach or lean on her, otherwise the baby would hurt.
But for such a long time, my aunt's belly has always been flat, not at all like my uncle's concubines who were pregnant with a baby, and she was in the mood for a while, and she completely forgot about the baby.
My father was always so himself......
Anyway, he explained that he had completed the task of accompanying his aunt every day and making her happy, but he still couldn't get half a word of praise......
The more Xi'er thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, and her small mouth deflated into an inverted arc.
Qing Ling hurriedly stood up and explained: "I'm fine, I didn't hold my stomach just now because of pain, it has nothing to do with Xi'er." ”
Mu Chen asked the nurse to take Xi'er out, and left Wei Zhen to teach a few words before giving up.
Wei Zhen was born in the Fanye royal family, and was placed under house arrest in Weilu Mountain after the death of the country, and later Mu Chen ascended the throne and lifted the ban on the Fanye royal family, and put the children of several children and nephews into the palace to raise them, and deliberately let Weizhen stay with Xi'er as a companion.
Qing Ling looked at the back of Wei Zhen leaving, and said to Mu Chen, who was sitting next to him, "Why are you so strict with Zhen'er?" Children who used to be so clever are now reticent. ”
Mu Chen tidied up the feather satin pillow, helped Qingling lie down again, and pulled her lips lightly, and said, "Obviously, you specially told her that day not to easily trust anyone in Lingxiao City, so that she became cautious in her words and deeds, why is it to blame me?" ”
After the death of the country, a group of children of the royal family fled to Mu Chen's mansion for help. The eldest Wei Zhen begged Mu Chen, crying and swearing that he would be obedient and would not cause trouble for him, but he was finally kicked out of the house.
Qing Ling remembered the past, and was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice: "At that time, you and I had no ability to protect ourselves, let alone take care of these children. Teach her not to be gullible, but also so that she can live. After a pause, "In the moment of despair, if you are deceived again, once you notice it, it will be like taking away the last trace of the will to survive......"
Mu Chen lowered his eyes and slowly shook her hand, only to feel cold and tight.
"Still tired lately?"
Qing Ling leaned on the pillow and closed her eyes slightly, "Hmm." I don't know what's wrong, people feel tired and always lie down, but they don't feel that their bodies are healed. He pulled out his hand and pressed it to his abdomen, "It's been so long, and the child doesn't seem to have grown up......"
Mu Chen comforted: "The pregnancy period of the Protoss is already long, and you have been injured again, so you can't come in a hurry." ”
Qing Ling was locked by tiredness, and sighed faintly, "How can you not be in a hurry?" If this kid has a good ...... I won't live either. ”
When Mu Chen returned to the dormitory that day, he immediately called someone to summon Gao Du.
"Why is Qing Ling's body still so bad?"
Kudu knelt on the ground, "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has been giving Xuanxin Lu to the Elder Emperor Ji in accordance with His Majesty's instructions." In the past six months, Di Ji's mood has improved greatly, and her appetite has improved a lot. But His Majesty also knows that taking Xuan Xin Lu will inevitably lead to drowsiness and fatigue, which is inevitable. ”
Mu Chen sneered when he heard this, "You will avoid the important and take it lightly." ”
Kuo Du trembled, "The minister doesn't dare." ”
Mu Chen said: "When you were asked to give Qing Ling Xuan Xinlu, it was because I didn't want her to always think about the past and often lose control of her emotions because of it. Now it seems that those obsessions in her heart have never been let go, and people are becoming more and more negative and depressed. ”
After a pause, he asked again: "Why hasn't the child in her womb grown up?" ”
Dou Du was sweaty on his temples, and he kept slandering in his heart: The effect of this Xuanxin Lu at the beginning, including the various symptoms that may hurt the fetus and cause the patient's mental malaise, I obviously said it clearly, but Your Majesty, you didn't object! Didn't you say something to yourself, that the scourge that harmed the mother should not have been left behind...... What does it mean to care about it now?
He thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to show the slightest disbelief on his face.
Mu Chen's mind was already difficult to guess, and Gao Du had even learned the fear of dying under him several times, so how could he dare to speak arbitrarily?
"Xuan Xinlu has the effect of diluting emotions for the patient itself, but it is equivalent to a certain degree of hallucinogenic medicine for the fetus. How much it will affect the development of the fetus. ”
Mu Chen sat behind the desk, staring at the recital of the word Daze circled with cinnabar in front of him, and was silent for a long time.
Finally, he slowly opened his mouth and ordered: "In the future, don't let her obey Xuanxinlu again." That child, be sure to save it. ”
Gao Du received the commandment, did not dare to slack off, and soon made adjustments to Qingling's medication.
He has served in the palace of Chaoyan for thousands of years, and he is also the one who watched Mu Chen be born and raised. He understands the ruthlessness of this majesty, the ruthlessness of others, and the ruthlessness of himself. On the night of the Suzaku Palace Change, what he did to his father, Gao Du also knew it in his heart......
But only in front of the Green Elder Emperor, His Majesty was born into another person.
Holding it in your hand for fear of falling, holding it in your mouth for fear of melting. It's not okay to look for death and life, and it's not okay to be negative and depressed. For a while, I think that the fetus has hurt the mother, and I want to get rid of it quickly, and then I want to save it for a while......
At the moment, even a fool knows that if the child in Emperor Ji's belly can't be born, it can be said that it will be beneficial to Chaoyan and harmless.
How could a shrewd person like His Majesty not understand this truth?
It stands to reason that he acted ruthlessly......
Behold......
As he pounded the medicine, he shook his head incomprehensibly.
The holy will is unpredictable, the holy will is unpredictable.
Spring goes to autumn, time flies.
Qingling's spirit slowly recovered, but with the continuous bulge of the lower abdomen, people still felt tired from time to time.
Mu Chen still came to visit her every day and accompanied her to walk and chat in the garden.
Xi'er can now see the changes in Qingling's body shape, and finally became cautious, and deliberately went around the distance to a butterfly, for fear of bumping into her aunt.
Mu Chen looked at Xi'er who was running among the flowers, and said to Qingling: "I intend to let Xi'er worship under Chongwu and follow your senior brother Chenyue to learn art, what do you think?" ”
Qing Ling was slightly surprised when she heard this, "Xi'er is so young, you want to send her to Chongwu?" ”
Mu Chen said: "When I apprenticed, I was about the same age as she is now. Turning to Qingling, his smile soft, "As soon as you were born, didn't you already live in Chongwu?" ”
Qing Ling said, "How is that the same? I was fatherless and motherless at that time......" thought for a while, "If you send Xi'er to Chongwu, will her mother be willing?" ”
Mu Chen said lightly: "Concubine An's health has always been bad, and she doesn't care about her, these things don't have to be agreed by her." ”
Qing Ling moved her lips, wanting to say something, but when she raised her eyes, she met Mu Chen's gaze staring at her.
In the eyes as deep as ink jade, there seems to be an undercurrent of emotions that sweep everything.
"Chongwu has been an outstanding spirit since ancient times."
He pondered and said, "If she can come out and fall like you in the future...... I felt relieved. ”
Qing Ling quickly looked away and smiled, "Xi'er is the child of you and Concubine An, how can she be like me?" ”
Mu Chen was silent for a moment, and then smiled: "Why not?" You're her aunt. ”
Qing Ling nodded and said, "Yes." Then I will personally write a letter to the senior brother to find out his tone. Master has always disliked being involved with the royal family, but perhaps Senior Brother will think differently. ”
It's night.
Qing Ling really started to write a letter, asking if Chenyue had any plans to accept apprentices.
According to Chongwu's current situation, the master will most likely pass on the position to Senior Brother Chenyue in the future.
If Chenyue accepts the emperor as a disciple, it is both advantageous and disadvantageous......
She clung to the pen and pondered.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise at the temple gate.
A woman pushed away the palace guards who came forward to block her, staggered and rushed to Qing Ling, knelt on the ground and cried: "Please ask the emperor to help!" ”
She looked up, revealing a small, pale face with red and swollen eyes from her messy hair.
Qing Ling slowly stood up with the support of the maid, and it took a long time before she recognized the person as her former close friend in the boudoir and now the emperor's concubine, Mu Linglu.
