November 15 of the first year of Yonghui.

In the Imperial Palace.

Because of the cold weather in recent days, a fire was lit in the temple early.

Mei Niang sat lazily on the warm couch, watching Ryan and Liu'er prepare everything for the winter.

But in her heart, she still remembered the events of the previous days.

Unable to help it, she asked:

"Ryan, the queen's side, and Concubine Xiao's side......

What's going on? ”

Ruian was arranging more than a dozen fox furs given by Li Zhixin, and was ready to pick out incense for Mei Niang, just waiting to be worn......

Suddenly, Mei Niang was caught off guard when she heard the question, and she was stunned for a moment before she reacted and said:

"Ah......

Queen......

But there was no movement, blindly the same old and dead as before, and only silent.

But on Concubine Xiao Shu's side, crying, making trouble, and hanging her neck, none of them stopped, and she seemed to be determined to take this opportunity to get out of the gate of the Qianqiu Palace! ”

Mei Niang nodded:

"She should have done the same...... Anyway, I have been detained for a few months, and it is inevitable that I want to come out early.

What about the other concubines in the palace? ”

Ryan said lightly:

"What else can there be? Each hugged his thighs. ”

When Mei Niang heard this, she seemed to be amused:

"You don't seem to like them."

"I don't like it."

Ryan pouted, and said while incense:

"Those people, they don't have a long life! Before, I thought that the door of our Lizheng Hall was too high, so I couldn't get in......

In the past two days, Baba has sent this and that to our temple......

I spent a lot of thoughts, but I didn't use any of them in the right place. ”

Mei Niang immediately understood, and said with a faint smile:

"You can't blame them, in the end, survival in the palace is like this, climb high and step low, and exclude dissidents."

Ryan didn't say anything more, just remained silent.

After a long time, Mei Niang asked again:

"Najiro's side...... How to prepare? ”

Ryan thought for a moment, but shook his head and said:

"The Lord didn't say anything, but just told the left and right to be careful, and there must be no recurrence of incidents in these days.

Are you still worried that there will be some big things in the palace?

However, the front court has frequent movements.

Uncle Yuan made a move because of what happened to Lord Yu before.

Let's not mention the clan faction, it is the Liu clan, and it is a clean-up.

Right now......"

He hesitated for a moment, glanced at Mei Niang with a calm face, and then said softly:

"Right now, because of Uncle Yuan's order, all of Liu Hongye's fame has been investigated and erased.

And Mrs. Liu also did not get along with Liu Hongye because of these years, so she left (Xiu Li, the people of the Tang Dynasty were open, and the status of men and women was relatively equal. It is not uncommon for commoners, especially aristocratic women, to take the initiative to file for divorce, that is, divorce, if they are dissatisfied with their husbands. Divorce can be used by both men and women, but it is a more shameful way of divorce for the divorced party. The other is called divorce, which is a divorce method that both men and women agree to, which is more decent. ）。 ”

Mei Niang was silent, but there were some waves in her heart, and she said softly after a while:

"That'......

What did Jiro say about this? ”

Ryan shook his head, secretly relieved in his heart:

"Not really.

Although the Lord also has the intention to restore Liu Hongye's innocence, he really can't save him because he has made mistakes everywhere. ”

Mei Niang narrowed her clever phoenix eyes and said:

"Mistakes? What's wrong? ”

He ...... was found out by Uncle Yuan and others that without informing Mrs. Yuan, he privately recruited concubines and prostitutes outside, and also included them in the room as a wife......

In addition, he also lingered in the tavern Qinglou all day long, making friends privately......

even took some political texts to the Qinglou for review several times...... They also joked with those prostitutes......

It can only be said that the matter he is responsible for is not a very important matter, otherwise it would be too big to accomplish. ”

Mei Niang was silent, and she could only be silent.

After a while, she thought about it, but summoned Liu'er to come:

"Liu'er, you've been with me for so long......

Let me ask you, what did Ryan say......

Exactly and no? ”

Liu'er thought about it, and wanted to tell Mei Niang the truth, but she still didn't open her mouth, but just said softly:

"Sister, whether it's the Lord or Brother Rui, the intention of such an arrangement, my sister is self-sufficient......

Moreover, Sister Liu'erguan really didn't care about Liu Hongye.

If that is the case, then why bother with it?

In the final analysis, this state of affairs is also his own fault.

If he hadn't thought about his sister, why had he suffered so much?

That's it for a while......

After a while, as long as my sister doesn't mention it, and the Lord doesn't want to, then the matter will naturally calm down.

Anyway, he still has an older brother here, so he definitely won't suffer too much sin. ”

Mei Niang bit her lower lip:

Speaking of which, she has known Liu Hongye for more than anyone else......

His character, but she understands.

Therefore, this time Rui'an's report, most of them are done by someone, hoping to teach Liu Hongye to endure hardships.

And she also knows who this person is. What Liu'er said is very true, and she understands it.

She also knew that if she thought about Liu Hongye, she didn't have to ask this person again, and completely forgot about him.

Then all three of them would be liberated.

It's just that after all, she still can't get over herself, and she inevitably feels a little guilty.

Fortunately, Liu'er also understood her thoughts and persuaded:

"My sister also felt guilty about him, but that's it.

In the final analysis, my sister is the Lord's person at the moment, not to mention my sister's future, which is shining brightly, and everything is in my sister's hands......

It's better to have less to do with this self-seeking person. ”

Mei Niang was speechless, and she could only be speechless.

After a long sigh, she leisurely looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, and the first snowflakes of the year fluttering.

Yes......

It's time to put it down.

She and him, after all, are just like this first piece of snow, and after a while, they each have their own new lives.

Since then, day after day, all Mei Niang heard again was how Wang Xiao and the two fought each other, how uneasy, and how they slandered each other in front of Li Zhi.

On several occasions, she was also involved.

But under the protection of Li Zhi and everyone, they have passed one level after another.

But this state of affairs also makes her physically and mentally exhausted.

After all, a month later, she fell ill because of some cold.

At the end of December of the first year of Yonghui.

Night.

Tai Chi Palace.

In the Imperial Palace.

Tomorrow is the day of the Yuanzheng.

But Mei Niang still had to lie on the couch and couldn't afford it.

Every day, when Li Zhi came to see, she was always uneasy, and Li Zhi was inevitably worried.

At the same time, in recent days, major events have occurred frequently in the DPRK and China, and Li Zhi is not allowed to accompany her for a long time, so as to protect her and recuperate.

Today, Mei Niang is coughing non-stop.

It was a long time before she took some decoction and barely slept under the care of Ryan and Wen Niang.

Seeing that she was asleep, the three Ryan people, who had not been able to sleep for several days, were also tired, so after some discussion, Ryan, who had rested for a while during the day, guarded her, but the other two did not dare to leave the palace, so they only found a small couch in His Royal Highness, and slept in their own clothes.

As for Ryan, he stayed in front of Mei Niang's couch, gathered the charcoal, put on a thick coat, and then leaned down on the couch and squinted for a while.

……

In the haze, Mei Niang seemed to feel a bright light in front of her.

Blink again, and the line of sight gradually clears.

So I woke up......

Looking at the bright Lizheng Palace, Mei Niang was inevitably a little stunned.

Ryan ......

When she opened her mouth to call, she found that her voice seemed to be as thin as mosquito language, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly.

When he wanted to get up, he immediately felt strange:

Although this is a reichika...... But why, inside and outside, inside and out, inside and down, there is no one in sight?

She was in a daze, when she saw a beautiful woman, dressed in plain white clothes, standing in the middle of the hall with a smile, beckoning to her.

Stunned, she slowly got up, looked at the woman, and then slowly walked over and asked:

"Are you......

Who? ”

At this time, she had already realized that it seemed that she was not in the palace right now......

Is it a dream?

The woman smiled and nodded, and spoke, her voice like a pearl falling on a jade plate:

"What?

Don't you know Hongu?

But the female pendant that the palace gave you, you seem to be wearing it well? ”

Mei Niang was stunned, and immediately subconsciously touched her chest:

There, a chrysanthemum gold pendant that she has been wearing since she was three years old and refuses to leave her for a moment is just hanging well.

She was surprised, and also exclaimed:

"You...... You are ......"

The woman nodded with a smile, stepped forward, and reached out to gently caress Mei Niang's face:

"Hongu is really happy...... With you with the childish children...... He's really alive and fast.

Hongu has seen it......

Thank you very much......

In the future, you will also go all the way with the childish slaves!

This kid is not easy to choose...... But with you, it's much easier for him to go. ”

Mei Niang was so excited that she couldn't choke up.

The woman smiled and wiped away her tears and said:

"I'm going to be a mother, why do you still cry like this? Bengong can remember that you were in the arms of Bengong when you were a child, but you are not afraid of heaven and earth...... That smiling face, that look, makes people happy for you......

Okay, okay, don't cry anymore, just take care of some of the little grandchildren of the palace! ”

Mei Niang was stunned, but looked at her in surprise:

"...... What do you say...... Mei Niang...... When did Mei Niang have a child......"

"Look, isn't this coming?"

The woman smiled and pointed out to the outside of the hall.

When Mei Niang looked at her hand, she saw a round of rolling red sun, flashing with dazzling light, and rushed to her arms in a daze!

She exclaimed, and immediately closed her eyes......

……

"Mei Niang...... Mei Niang! ”

When Mei Niang woke up screaming, she heard a familiar call.

Mei Niang raised her head and looked at Li Zhi with a worried face, and it took a while to react and throw herself into his arms, not knowing whether to be sad or happy.

Li Zhi saw that she was fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"What, dreaming? Don't be afraid, don't be afraid...... The things over there in the Hengzhu Taiji Hall have been dealt with, so I can accompany you now......"

After a while of comfort, Mei Niang came back to her senses and told Li Zhi everything in her dream.

Li Zhi heard that she actually dreamed of her biological mother, the eldest grandson, and for a while aroused her feelings of longing for her mother, sad and happy, and she didn't know what to do, so she could only hug her in her arms.

But after a while, I saw that Mei Niang's face was pale, and she really seemed to be unwell, so she wanted to summon the imperial doctor to look inside.

Ran Meiniang felt that she had nothing to do, but she was tired, and the red sun in her dream was in her arms, and she was a little frightened.

Li Zhi thought about this, and this is indeed the reason, so he simply took the opportunity of the pilgrimage tomorrow to summon the divine doctor Sun Daochang to enter for a consultation. In addition, Li Chunfeng can be summoned into the palace to interpret dreams, and relieve the worries in Mei Niang's heart.

……

The first day of the first month of the second year of Yonghui.

Tai Chi Palace.

Tang Gaozong Li Zhi, by the world of hundreds of officials, the blessing of the people. The heart is very happy, but in the harem, the body of the pet lady Wu has been uneasy for days, and last night I had a strange dream, and I was slightly worried for a while.

Fortunately, after a short time, a miracle doctor Sun Simiao entered the clinic and said:

"Lady Wu, the sick body is at the beginning, and this discomfort is really because of the pregnancy of the dragon heir."

When Li Zhi was drinking and feasting with hundreds of officials in the Taiji Palace, he was so surprised when he heard the report that he accidentally knocked over the jade dragon cup and stained the dragon robe.

Just as he was waiting for the inquiry, he saw Li Chunfeng enter again and reported:

"Lady Wu, last night I dreamed of Empress Wende and Empress Wende, this is a good omen. Moreover, the Great Sage Queen Niangniang recruited the day into her arms, and the original name of the Niangzi Wu family was Zhao, which means that the day is Zhaoran, so it is the dream of getting a baby.

From this, it can be seen that the lady Wu is lucky, and the great sage queen is blessed by the Holy Spirit, and she should add a civil and military balance to the lord, and the prince of great virtue and talent is also. ”

When Li Zhi heard this, his joy was beyond expression, and when all the officials in the DPRK and China heard it, they were all amazed, and there were also British Duke Li Ji and Uncle Sun Wuji who were overjoyed and immediately attended to congratulate each other.

When all the officials saw it, they all attended to congratulate.

For a time, inside and outside the palace, the government and the opposition were all shocked by the fact that the Wu family's lady Zhaozhi had a baby!
