"It's so beautiful here!"

In the Yuhong Courtyard, Qiu Xiaobei stood beside Fan Shenxi, and couldn't help but open his hands and take a deep breath.

At first glance, you will think that this place is very majestic, almost all of them are made of stone and are taller than ordinary houses, but they do not give you any rough feeling, but they are particularly exquisite, and the stone is polished like jade.

And the vegetation is very well done, and the trees grow tall and strong, accompanied by a kind of vine flower, which, at first glance, looks like every tree is full of flowers.

As we go deeper, there is no shortage of poetic places, small bridges and flowing water, I don't know the stream flowing from the mountain, there are still fish swimming in it, small shrimp jumping, next to the stream are small stones that have been washed clean, and the smell of nature is very strong.

It's approaching winter, but here, it seems that it is still in the green and hazy summer, she has taken off her shoes to play by the stream, treading water, catching some shrimp, but Fan Shen refused, saying that the stones immersed in the water were slippery and easy to slip.

"If you like, we can go fishing at the lake on the other side." Fan Shenxi took her hand, and when they arrived at this place, the two of them didn't need to be a husband and wife who had to avoid and take care of them, they walked freely in their "home", "There is a fruit forest at the other end, rest first today, and let's go over tomorrow to have a look." ”

Qiu Xiaobei was originally frightened and wanted to withdraw her hand, but he held it firmly, she hurriedly looked left and right, and found that the people brought by the East Palace were forgotten, and the people in the other courtyard bowed their heads one after another, as if they were not exploring the prince's behavior at all, and they were not surprised.

They went back to the main courtyard, and the palace people who stayed here had already cleaned the place, to be honest, although some things looked a little old, but in addition, the entire courtyard was in good condition, not only because it was built well, but also because of the intentions of the people who stayed here over the years.

"Your Highness, you can come here, everyone is happy in their hearts, they are ready early, if you still need anything, remember to tell the old slave."

Gonggong Ke, the head of the Yuhong Courtyard, smiled with a chrysanthemum on his face, the joy in his eyes was real, although he had turmoil in his heart about His Royal Highness the Prince's holding on to a little eunuch's hand, he didn't say anything, and he also loved the house and Wudi and respected Qiu Xiaobei very much.

"It's all right, it's hard work for Father-in-law Ke."

"Your Highness, whatever you say, the old slave should be. Then you rest first, and then call the old slave if you have something. ”

"Most of the people who stay here are my mother's people." After Fan Shenxi waited for Gonggong Ke to leave, he pulled Qiu Xiaobei to sit on his lap, wanting to help her change her clothes.

Qiu Xiaobei wanted to stop him, but when he heard this, he turned his head to look at him.

"You want to ask, why don't you stay by my side and protect me?"

Qiu Xiaobei nodded, the prince has had such a hard time in the past few years, if he can have a few more people by the prince's side in the queen's center, the prince may be better.

"They are all ordinary palace people, even if they are sent to the palace, it won't help much, my situation at that time, there are not many people who stay by my side, it is better to let them stay here, at least they can save their lives."

Qiu Xiaobei frowned: "Why does the emperor ...... What is it to do to you? ”

Even if the queen is not the woman the emperor loves, but there are 3,000 beauties in the harem, how many can he love, besides, no matter how Fan Shenxi is, he is his child, even if he is afraid of Fan Shenxi's talent, but when the queen dies, how old is Fan Shenxi? As for treating your sister-in-law like this, don't you all value your sister-in-law in this era?

Fan Shenxi smiled indifferently: "Before my mother remarried the emperor, she became a general from a small soldier, and even, defeated many good sons and daughters, became the commander, and was the only female general and commander in the Great Fan Dynasty." ”

Qiu Xiaobei nodded again and again: "I know this." ”

Even if the living people in the palace don't dare to talk about the queen at will, there are still a lot of dead spirits, like Xiao A and Xiao Yi, they don't have so many taboos for the living, anyway, the emperor can't cut off their heads, so they told Qiu Xiaobei a lot of things about Queen Ling Jinge.

Said that she is the heroine of the Fan Dynasty, now the Fan Dynasty can have a stable and stable life, all thanks to her repelled the powerful enemy country around her, she is hearty, and not only dancing knives and sticks, it is said that although she does not dare to say that she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but at least she can get by, she said that reading makes people clear their minds, practicing calligraphy and painting makes people calm, playing the piano and dancing makes people relax, playing chess exercises your layout ability, she even led a group of rough men who only know everyone to pick up the textbook again, read the book.

When Qiu Xiaobei heard this, he deeply felt that the current Fan Shenxi must have been influenced by this mother, so he would force her to study.

Ling Jinge is very smart, she rescued a lot of refugees on the march, when she passed by some towns and villages, she also worked as a messenger to solve a few unjust cases, she was decisive and careful, her bravery, her strategy, she treated her soldiers as if she were her own brother, she was recognized by everyone in the barracks, and truly recognized her as a marshal and loyal.

Importantly...... The soul who told her these things at that time emphasized to her very seriously that Ling Jinge was still very beautiful!

In short, whenever the queen is mentioned, no matter whether the living or the dead, everyone's expressions are in awe and worship, when the criminal department wants to cut off her head, Fan Shenxi came, and the people at that time respected him very much, and everyone's respect for the queen was equivalent to ten times the people's reverence for Fan Shenxi, which shows what status the queen has in everyone's hearts.

Therefore, the emperor no longer likes Fan Shenxi, when he was an adult, he still made him the crown prince, and after he was disabled, he was obviously not qualified to inherit the unification, and he still had to work hard to find the most legitimate reason for abolishing it.

On the other hand, Qiu Xiaobei couldn't figure it out, why did the emperor dislike Fan Shenxi so much, could it be that his wife was too capable and made him aggrieved, so that he didn't want to see her son?

Fan Shenxi didn't ask her why she knew so much about the queen when everyone was silent about the queen now, he only said: "Then do you know that the queen mother once had a strange army under her hands." ”

"Odd soldiers?"

"Well, it is completely under the rule of my mother, and only obeys the orders of my mother, and all the strange soldiers who are brave and good at fighting and have repeatedly performed miraculous feats are not horses and archery, they are magical strange."

"So, what about later?"

"Later, they were ordered to carry out a mission, but no one returned, and it is said that they entered the snow-capped mountains known as ghost horses, and no one returned."

"This ......"

"That happened before my mother entered the palace, my father and the emperor felt that my mother deliberately hid them all in order not to hand over the strange soldiers to the royal family, and they were afraid that this strange army would come back one day, but they wanted to get this strange army."

"So, the emperor is worried that when you grow up, you will inherit this strange army, and when you are very young, you want to cut off this possibility first? But I want to get this strange soldier in my heart, so I ...... you Your Highness, what are you doing? ”

Let's talk about business, why her clothes have been stripped down to the innermost one, and they are also open, if she hadn't worn a breast skin today, she would have been really naked.

"Aren't you uncomfortable wearing this, now that there are no outsiders, I'll help you drag it down."

He also wanted to continue to move, but was caught by her, gritted his teeth and said, "I can come by myself, Your Highness!" ”

When she teased him earlier, she wanted to take a bath and peek at him, but he was hiding it like something, he was an abstinent and cold man at the time, why was he completely dissatisfied with his desire as soon as he opened the meat?

Fan Shenxi glanced at her: "What about slandering me in the belly?" ”

"No, how dare you." She grabbed his hand.

He sneered: "If this will me go to the bath, will you follow?" ”

Qiu Xiaobei thought for two seconds, and said spinelessly: "Follow." "She also wants to see beautiful men out of the bath.

Then, she received Fan Shenxi's sarcastic laughter from each other, and angrily picked up his clothes: "No matter, I'll take it off and you too!" ”

Fan Shenxi sat there and let her pick it up, there was no struggle at all, but after she opened half of it herself, she swallowed saliva at his beautiful figure.

I always feel like I've been fooled, Qiu Xiaobei thought.

"Since you picked me up, let's help each other!"

As he spoke, he hugged her into his arms and poured her to the side of the soft couch, the previous serious conversation ended inexplicably, but then Qiu Xiaobei shook such a thought when he fell asleep in a daze.

In order to get a surprise army, in order to suppress the influence and power of the queen, he treated the prince like this...... I really didn't have any relatives that day.

After a long "nap", when Qiu Xiaobei and Fan Shenxi packed up and set off to go fishing, it was almost dark.

Wearing a bunch of ponytails and loose clothes, he sat lazily on a special rattan chair with cushions and soft pillows, and a fishing rod next to him, stretched out into the lake, hanging the fishing line, waiting for the fish to come to the door.

She rested her hand on her stomach and stroked it a little, although her body was still a little sore, but to be honest, after venting, she was also happy, and she would feel comfortable and want to sleep.

If she just continued to sleep, she would definitely not be able to go to bed early at night, so she still asked Fan Shenxi to take her out to fish.

Fan Shenxi sat next to her, his wheelchair could change positions by himself, and helped her pull the thin blanket that slipped down, Qiu Xiaobei smiled: "I'm like this now, like an old man." ”

Fan Shen smiled and pinched her cheeks, he suddenly hoped that if the two of them could be like this when they were old, then God would not be so bad for him.

"Eh, it's moving." Finding that there was movement in the fishing rod at hand, Qiu Xiaobei shouted anxiously, while trying to sit up and grab the fishing rod, but she was too comfortable to sit up at once, and she couldn't get up when she wanted to sit up straight, and then she saw a hand across her and grabbed her fishing rod, and in a few clicks, a big fish was thrown up and fell into the bucket they had prepared in advance.

Qiu Xiaobei lay on Fan Shenxi's shoulder and looked at the bucket at his feet: "This fish is so fat, it's delicious at first glance." ”

"I'll let people make sweet and sour for a while." Fan Shenxi tilted his head, just touched her cheek, and kissed her, Qiu Xiaobei smiled and replied to his mouth.

Mixing oil in honey, he flashed the blind Gonggong Li who came over to report something, he paused, but decided to make a shining light bulb, and forcibly went over to destroy the two people who were in love: "Your Highness, there is a letter from the palace." ”

Fan Shenxi was not angry, anyway, whether or not Gonggong Li was present or not, it would not prevent him from showing affection, a serious couple, what are you afraid of.

He took the secret letter, opened it and read it at a glance, hooked his lips and sneered: "She can't bear it so quickly, but she is really anxious." ”

Li Gonggong said: "Don't worry, they have been looking for so many years." ”

casually handed the letter to Gonggong Li and asked him to dispose of it: "Just let them toss it, let people look at it, don't pay attention to it." ”

"Yes."

This little episode couldn't affect them, they caught a few more fish, let people catch a basket of shrimp, picked some vegetables in their own vegetable garden, and a fragrant table of dinner came out, the two of them couldn't eat so much fish, and let Gonggong Li deal with the rest, and they didn't need them to serve them for dinner, let them eat their own.

The little two have a good appetite and have a full meal, sit down for a while after the meal, Fan Shenxi accompanied her out for a walk, visited the Yuhong Courtyard, came back to bathe and taught her to play chess, and when she was sleepy, the two went to bed, because they had messed around during the day, Fan Shenxi, who was close to her body, didn't do anything more, hugged her, and soon fell asleep with each other's entangled breathing.

This kind of day will not get tired of Qiu Xiaobei for a hundred years.

The night was very quiet, accompanied by a slightly cold wind, the two people in the bed warmed each other, it was a good sleep, and the pregnant Qiu Xiaobei could definitely sleep until noon tomorrow, but in the middle of the night, she woke up inexplicably.

That feeling is really indescribable, as if she woke up from a dream, and it seems that someone suddenly called her, but when she opened her eyes, there was only Fan Shen Xi who was holding her, and there was no sound.

Maybe it's a dream.

Feeling that her mouth was dry, she moved very lightly and tried not to make noise until Fan sat up heavily, then touched the kettle on the small table next to the bed, poured herself a glass, and brought it over to take a sip.

The water in the entrance is hot!

Qiu Xiaobei paused, raised the cup a little higher to take a look, of course she couldn't see anything, but she realized that the cups were a little hot this time, she took a sip again, it was really hot.

It's not the kind that cools a little, it's more like water just being poured into a kettle.

So, the reason why she woke up just now was because someone came in and changed the cold water for them?

Is it Grandpa Li?

It should be, otherwise there would be anyone who would have come here without being discovered, let alone changing the hot water for them.

"Huh? How not to sleep? ”

Fan Shenxi woke up, Qiu Xiaobei hurriedly put the cup back, and lay back on the quilt and retracted into Fan Shenxi's arms: "I'm thirsty and drink some water." ”

"Hmm." He said in a low, dumb and magnetic voice, "Then go on sleeping." He pulled up the quilt and hugged her and closed her eyes again.

The episode of the night did not attract Qiu Xiaobei's attention, and the next day, Fan Shenxi took her to the orchard to pick fruits as promised.

The orchard is very large, in addition to the peach tree in front, there is also a persimmon forest at the back, but the persimmon looks a little green, and there is a mountain behind the persimmon forest, and there are fruits planted on the mountain, and there are also wild and wild fruits, it depends on whether you can dig it out.

Fan Shenxi definitely didn't let Qiu Xiaobei climb the tree, so she could only have a good time on some low branches, or when someone went up to pick it up, she ran to pick it up, maybe some people who believed in their identity disdained to do this kind of thing, but she was very happy to pick it up.

"When I was a child, once my father and mother took a task, I clamored to follow, and they took me to a lychee forest to catch ...... Well, the thieves who stole the lychees, when they beat them, they dropped a lot of red and big lychees, and I went to pick them up, and when they caught the thief, I had already picked up a big basket of lychees, but it was sweet, but the dogs on the guard barked too loudly, and it was a little noisy. ”

Fan Shenxi asked suspiciously: "I remember you said, your father is a doctor, why do you still catch thieves?" Isn't that what you do? ”

"Yes, yes," Qiu Xiaobei smiled dryly, "My father has the ability, hurry up and call him to help, earn some extra money, and supplement the family." ”

Her father is a well-known ghost hunter, and once served as the captain of a special department, which is equivalent to the head of the Yin and Yang world.

Can a doctor still dispense medicine to poison the thief who stole the fruit?

Qiu Xiaobei's words were full of loopholes, but Fan Shenxi didn't ask more, seeing that she couldn't go up the tree and only pick up fruits, so he took her to the mountains again, the original intention was to take her around, maybe she could find fruits or flowers that grew in low places for her to pick, but I didn't expect her to really find the treasure, but the treasure could be seen and couldn't be picked.

In a cliff, in a very narrow and narrow gap, people's arms can barely reach into it, but they are at least five or six meters long from the target, and they don't know how much high, anyway, in a very high place, they stand at the foot of the cliff, and they can't reach it at all.

That treasure is an arm-long "grass", on which there are several red fruits that are a little larger than the nails, it is a kind of medicinal material, also known as red peach, because the shape is a bit like a miniature version of the peach, it has a very good effect on replenishing blood and qi, in ancient times, the medical treatment was backward, and the pregnant woman should be able to boil the red peach and midwifery medicine together and drink it when she gave birth, which will make it easier for the child to give birth smoothly, but this thing can be met but not sought, it is difficult to find.

As soon as Fan Shenxi heard this, he immediately wanted to get this red fruit, no matter whether Qiu Xiaobei was healthy or not, it was good to have an extra layer of protection, if he could, he could search for all the natural treasures, just for her safety and health.

"There's always a way to get it." Fan Shen said, just get some tools, and then let people climb up.

"Don't, it's so steep here, I know what you think, don't let people be in danger, although this medicine is rare, but it's not that important, with you, will there be a shortage of medicine, let's go, let's go, this fruit is not delicious, let's go find something delicious."

Qiu Xiaobei pestered Fan Shenxi and left, Fan Shenxi smiled and asked people to push the wheelchair to walk with her, and secretly glanced at Gonggong Li, Gonggong Li waved his hand to the guard behind him clearly, and the guard immediately quietly retreated.

"This is delicious," Qiu Xiaobei bit the pickled peaches crisply, "It's really good." ”

"Don't eat too much, you won't be able to eat for a while." Fan Shenxi glanced at her and asked the rest to be taken down.

"Eh, one more, one more." She stretched out her hand to take another peach from the plate that had been picked up by the palace maid, but as soon as she stretched out her hand, she was beaten back by Fan Shenxi.

"Go down."

The palace maid hurriedly took the plate and left, Qiu Xiaobei took a bite of the only remaining peach in his hand hatefully, and stared at Fan Shenxi with a pout.

These peaches are not big, they are sweet and sour after pickling, and they are very refreshing, she didn't like them before, but now she likes to eat them.

"This mouth can be hung with things." Fan Shenxi pinched her lips, "Let you eat less, I'm afraid that you will have a stomach ache for a while, and see how many you have eaten." ”

Qiu Xiaobei snorted and took his hand away: "Then I'll go to the kitchen and see if there's anything delicious tonight." ”

Now this courtyard is really like her and Fan Shenxi's home, here, go outside, there is no need to shy away from the identity of the master and slave, the two can get along with each other like a normal couple, Fan Shenxi is here, giving her a piece of heaven completely, allowing her to play freely under the sky.

She just wanted to do something for him, but she thought about it, his father's ability, she learned a lot, and she also made medicine...... A little talented, Fan Shenxi's new medicine can't be made because the medicinal materials are not complete, but you can get some supplements on the side, especially medicinal food, she is doing this in the East Palace, but she only prescribes the formula, and now she wants to deal with it herself.

Fan Shenxi watched her snort and walked out, and deliberately shouted: "I'll let people stare at you, don't steal food." ”

Qiu Xiaobei turned his head and pointed his finger under his left eye, and then stuck out his tongue and grimaced at him before humming and leaving.

Fan Shenxi's smile did not change, and Gonggong Li stepped forward and bent down to reply: "Your Highness, I have already explored, and the hearts may not be able to be picked for a while, and it will take some time." ”

"I won't be able to get it for a while, and there will be a few days left," Fan Shenxi said lightly, raising his teacup and taking a sip of tea, "You can always get it." ”

"Yes, the old slave will tell them to hurry."

……

Qiu Xiaobei leaned back into Fan Shenxi's arms and fell asleep peacefully.

The incense slowly drifted out from the incense burner, but the smoke persisted, and gradually, a hazy, swirling smoke filled the room, making everything unreal.

"Huh?"

Qiu Xiaobei suddenly trembled, as if he had stepped on empty feet in a dream, and woke up with a trembling wit.

She was still a little blind, staring at the darkness in front of her with her eyes open for a while, before she suddenly came to her senses, sat up in a circle, scratched her head, why did she wake up again?

I habitually went to the low table at the head of the bed to touch the water and drink, and my eyes naturally looked outward, and then - pause!

There is a small lantern in the corner of the room, which makes the room a little bright, which does not affect sleep, and is also convenient to see clearly when getting up at night without bumping into it, or Fan Shenxi knows that her night vision is very poor, and she also heard Lin Ziyi say that she is pregnant to the middle and late stages, and she goes to the toilet frequently, but lighting the lamp at night will make Qiu Xiaobei unable to sleep, so he asked people to prepare this in advance.

Now, instead of feeling the convenience of getting up at night, she let her see what was on the table a little farther away.

There, there was a grass the length of an arm, with several red fruits on it.

It's not ...... Isn't it what she and Fan Shenxi saw today, growing "hearts" in the cliffs? How did it end up here?

She couldn't help but lift the quilt and get out of bed, walked over to the table and picked up the plant to take a closer look.
