Chapter 63: Filial Piety

The weather is getting colder and colder, and I can't soak my feet in 'medicine' water because I'm pregnant, and those 'medicine' materials are all for blood circulation and menstruation, and they are absolutely forbidden! Therefore, this year's 'leg' disease can't use 'medicine', so I can only lie on the 'bed'. In this way, there is less 'very' and more trouble, and it is inevitable that others will be seen when they are always outside, so they can't go out of the 'door', and they don't have to ask for peace, so they are relaxed.

But in November, my mood was low again, and I copied the scriptures every day except for accompanying the children.

November 17 is the death day of 'Jade', and in a blink of an eye, seven years have passed.

Every year at this time of year I would copy the scriptures and make clothes about his age and burn them for him.

Baoyue saw that I was copying the scriptures, so she watched from the sidelines, and then asked, "Does the queen mother think of Brother 'Yu'er again?, will you take us to burn paper money when the time comes?" I nodded and said, "When the time comes, I will also take Yuan Xi with me." "In the past, Yuan Xi was not in the palace, and I didn't want to take him to worship openly, but now that he is my righteous son, he can naturally be called 'Yu'er brother' justifiably.

On that day, the snow was falling heavily, and the three of us rode the carriage to the east, and when we arrived at the Xuanyuan Temple, I was helped out of the carriage and carried in with a chariot.

Kneeling in front of the tablets, my gaze slowly drifted over, lingering on Qiheng's tablet for a long time, and then pointing to the tablet of 'jade' and saying to Yuan Xi and Baoyue: "That's your brother, Youxi." The two children kowtowed and put on incense. I silently burned the scriptures and the clothes worn by my eight-year-old child.

"If your brother were still alive, he would be eight years old......" I said with tears in my eyes and choked up. I remembered that there was another one in my womb, no matter whether his arrival was good or bad, but because I had the pain of losing my parent, I couldn't bear to let him leave me without even seeing the face of this world.

Baoyue sensibly wiped away my tears and said, "Queen Mother, don't be sad, although you don't have a brother, you still have me! I will always be by your side! And Brother Yuanxi, isn't it?"

Yuan Xi hesitated slightly, and then said: "Yes, the Empress Dowager, Yuan Xi will always be by your side." ”

I smiled and said to Baoyue: "Your brother Yuanxi is still a little credible to accompany me, but you want to marry when you grow up." ”

Baoyue blushed and said, "Then I won't marry!"

I smiled and said, "It's up to you, okay, we'll go back when the things are burned." ”

The firelight reflected my face, and I looked at the silent Yuan Xi, and I only felt that he had something on his mind. After I went back, I sent Baoyue to do things, leaving Yuan Xi alone, and asked him: "You said today that you will always be by your stepmother's side......" Yuan Xi lowered his eyes and said: "Yes, Yuan Xi is willing to accompany the Queen Mother." ”

I looked at him and asked softly, "But why are you hesitating?"

Yuan Xi raised his head, glanced at me, and then lowered his head again, and said, "Yuan Xi hesitated, thinking about his mother at home...... But later, I also thought that Yuan Xi was already the adopted son of the Empress Dowager, so it was reasonable for Yuan Xi to be willing to accompany you. ”

I sighed softly in my heart, this kid is still affectionate, 'touched' his head and smiled: "Go and see Baoyue, she is going to lose her temper again." ”

Yuan Xi immediately smiled and said, "Yes, you went out today, you have to rest well and take care of your body." As he spoke, he bowed and withdrew.

This time the fetus passed the first three months, my appetite still did not improve, 'spring' was a little anxious, looking for Shen Qi to see, Shen Qi said: "Every time you are pregnant, there will be different symptoms, the Queen Mother is not good this time, but do you want Weichen to prescribe some 'medicine'?"

"No, I'll just put up with it. "It's a three-point poison of 'medicine', and I don't dare to take 'medicine' indiscriminately, especially when I'm pregnant.

Shen Qi also knew my temper, so naturally he was not reluctant. However, as soon as Baoyue and Yuan Xi saw him come to save the enemy, they always thought that there was something wrong with my health, and the 'spring' explained to them that I just had a bad appetite, and they were relieved, but they soon went to the side and muttered.

Qi Min has not come to see me much since that day and Qi Huai, and has been busy with government affairs. Although I no longer go to the court, naturally someone will spread the news of the court to my ears. Now, although the power dispute between the two has not been put on the table, the discerning person has already noticed the clues. It's probably because I'm worried about them, so my appetite won't get better!

But if I dissuade Qi Qi from doing anything, he will only think that I am thinking about Qi in my heart, and he will be even more unhappy.

I knew that day would come sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly, I was caught off guard, and I couldn't think of any way to resolve it.

When Qi Min came to see me, he only saw that I was worried, and naturally guessed what the reason was, and it was necessary for me to take good care of it, and not to think 'chaotically'.

There are some things, how can you say that you don't want to think about it, he told me not to think about it, but I often read it and sigh.

That evening, I ordered a meal to be served, but it was not delivered. "Chunfen" said mysteriously: "Don't be impatient, just wait a while, if you are hungry, the slave will go and prepare some snacks for you." ”

I didn't feel hungry, but I was afraid that the children would be hungry, but I didn't see them at this time, so I asked, "What about Yuanxi and Baoyue?"

"You'll be able to see them later." ”

I was full of suspicions, but she just refused to say, and after waiting for a while, she suddenly smelled a strong aroma, and 'Chun' said, "It's time to set the meal." "I was only surprised that when I was helped to the table, I realized that the fragrance came from here, and it was actually a bowl of 'meat' soup. Baoyue and Yuan Xi stood at the table with smiles, and put a small half bowl in front of me for me, and said, "This is cooked for you by the princess and the prince, you can use some to see how it tastes." ”

I was taken aback, looked at them and asked, "You did that?"

Baoyue nodded proudly, but Yuan Xi said: "We watched the imperial kitchen make it, but for the sake of deliciousness, we found the spices that the 'Bo' country paid tribute to, so it is so fragrant." Bao Yue hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, please try it! Although we didn't do it ourselves, we also put a lot of effort into it!"

I smiled and ate it, and sure enough, my teeth and cheeks were fragrant, and I not only praised: "It's really delicious!

Yuan Xi laughed, but Baoyue didn't follow and said, "Then you eat them all, otherwise I don't know if you said this to comfort us!"

I laughed and said, "Okay, I'm sure I'll eat them all and won't give it to you." ”

As a result, I really ate it all under the supervision of these two little demon stars, Bao Yue breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "The queen mother has to eat more, you can't lose weight anymore!" I was sour in my heart, and said with a smile: "Okay, the queen mother must eat well, so as not to worry our little princess." ”

These days, they are very worried, even if their appetite is not good in the future, they must eat more, and they can't let their children worry about me as an adult!

I thought that when I was full, I would feel better and sleep more peacefully, but that night I was trapped in a deep dream and couldn't get out. It was as if he was being pressed by something, his limbs were weak to move, and he couldn't breathe. I struggled to wake up, sweating profusely, and my lower abdomen was heavy and swollen and painful. I didn't know it well, I exclaimed loudly, the palace lights gradually turned on, and I stretched out my hand to 'touch' my lower body, but my hands were full of blood.
