Crescent Moon felt like she had slept for a long time, just as she had dreamed about the events of five years.

It's just that when she opens her eyes now, she is not awake after a big dream, but has a headache and brain fever, and her whole body is weak.

Mama Wang rubbed her sore head for Xinyue, making her feel better, Xinyue still couldn't stop coughing, the medicine prescribed by the doctor had been drunk twice today, and she still didn't have any strength at all.

"Girl, let's find a doctor, you've been lying like this for two days, and there's no way to go on like this." Mama Wang put the cold veil on Xinyue's head again, she was dazed, and she had a fever from time to time.

"I'm fine, I want to drink water." Crescent Moon only said these two short words before coughing again.

Feng'er came in with water, and Xinyue drank it in small sips, only to feel that her throat was not as painful as a fire.

"Girl, what would you like to eat?" Xinyue really didn't eat a grain of rice in the past two days, and Xinyue still shook her head, "It's enough to drink that bitter medicine to the stomach every day, Mama, you let Fei'er take good care of Minhui, don't come to me to walk around during this time, it's not good if you also get caught the wind cold." "Xinyue still doesn't forget to take care of Minhui.

"Every time you say that, the slaves and maids have already taken it to heart. You haven't been sick once this winter, why did you fall ill when the weather was warm? As she spoke, the veil on Xinyue's forehead was already hot, and Mama Wang changed it for her.

"Girl, you have seen the ancestral tomb of the Jiang family with Young Master Jiang Feng, is this an evil wind entering the body? Do you want to find a national teacher to show you? Feng'er suddenly thought of something.

Before Xinyue could speak, Mama Wang first opened her mouth and scolded, "Hao'er, how long have you been serving the girl?" Is this something that can be said casually? The girl is just infected with the wind and cold, and the doctors all say so, are you smarter than the doctor? ”

Xinyue pulled Mama Wang's sleeve, "Okay, Mama, Feng'er only cares about me." ”

"Girl, there must be no mistakes in your words and deeds. Now we live in Zhuangzi, no more than the rules of Jinling City, but girl, you can't live here for the rest of your life. Even if you want to live, if the people around you are slack, it is easy to talk about it, and if you are in front of people, you will lose the girl's face. You come to serve the girl, I told you the first time, if your words and deeds disgrace the girl, I will beat you to death. Now I am more and more proficient in errands, but do you have to forget the rules? What Mama Wang said was already very serious, and Feng'er stood aside, her head lowered, and her whole face was red.

Xinyue put her right hand on her forehead, and looked at Feng'er with a sideways face, "These words said by Mama have been corrected and not encouraged." Something like today's ghostly power doesn't have to be in front of me. It's nothing for you to say to me, so what is the ancestral tomb of the Jiang family? It was the burial place of the Queen Mother's biological father and mother. You say that I am an evil wind, who is this evil wind? How much of a sin must it be if it gets out? Xinyue hoarsely woke up Feng'er, and Feng'er immediately knelt on the ground, "It's the slave and the maid who lost her words, and the slave and the maid know that she is wrong." ”

Mama Wang sighed, "It's all girls, and I've always been too generous with you." Feng'er, don't blame Mama for speaking badly, the girl's matter is a big thing, if you are really good to the girl. Everything you say and everything you do has to be thought about before you do it. ”

"Yes" Feng'er reached out and wiped the tears from her eyes with her sleeve, and Xinyue said, "Okay, you take care of me, I'm tired, go down and wash my face and rest, I want to eat green vegetable porridge a little, you go and cook some for me." ”

"Yes," she said, turning to leave Crescent's room.

"Girl, Feng'er and Fei'er are not young, do you have to plan for them?" Mama Wang asked.

"I'm not going to talk about this today. I had a terrible headache, my nose and throat were sore to death. Crescent Moon rolled up the quilt and turned away.

"Although the slave reprimanded Feng'er just now, but if it's really..."

"Where are there so many evil winds that are idle and have nothing to do. I'm thirsty, Mama. Crescent sat up, drank another glass of water, and then lay on the bed with sleepiness.

The crescent moon began to dream again, and in her dream there was a slender woman standing with her back to her, and the woman was dressed as a woman with high temples.

Crescent Moon frowned, looking at the dense fog around here, there was really some horror. She stood where she was, and said to the woman ten paces away, "Dare to ask Madame, where is this place?" ”

"This is in your dream." The lady in blue turned around, her complexion was as white as paper, and her lips were as red as blood, but her eyes were shining, and just by looking at her eyes, you could tell that she was not a ghost.

"Do you think I'm a ghost?" The Lady in Blue asked.

"Naturally not, Madame is too worried." Crescent immediately denied that "just seeing Madame, it seems very familiar." ”

"Have we met?" The lady in blue asked the crescent moon in turn.

Crescent shook her head, "I've never seen Madame." ”

"But I've seen you." The lady in blue said firmly, "You will see me one day." ”

The more Crescent Moon really looked at this face, the more familiar it felt, and then looked at her forehead, there seemed to be a thin scar, the scar went from the center of her eyebrows to her sideburns, and Crescent Moon said, "Do you have anything to say to me again?" ”

"Do you think you're free?" The woman in blue is the new moon herself in her dreams.

"Didn't I do it? Didn't you give yourself freedom? Crescent asked.

The woman in blue shook her head, "Perhaps, none of us can break free." But you seem to have been dreaming for so long that you have forgotten what the world will be like after waking up. So, let me ask you, what day is it? ”

The crescent moon opened her eyes suddenly, today, today...

"Girl, girl, what's wrong with you? Nightmare? Feng'er stepped forward and shook the crescent moon a few times, but seeing that she still didn't react, she shook it a few more times, and finally the crescent moon said in a hoarse voice, "What time is it?" ”

"It's just past the end of the day, and now it's the beginning of the day."

"You send someone to deliver a post to the palace, and I'm going to see the Queen Mother soon."

"The Queen Mother has decreed, you don't have to go to see her without her summons. And now that you're sick, how can you stand the fatigue of traveling? ”

"I'll let you go, and you'll go. The Queen Mother will definitely see me today. Xinyue pushed Feng'er away, and then walked off the bed, and the woman in blue in the dream, that is, she reminded herself that the Queen Mother would not survive today.

Feng'er built a new moon like this, and didn't dare to delay any longer, so he took the post and immediately sent someone to the palace, and sure enough, this time the post was not taken back.

Xinyue closed her eyes and let her head not faint on the shaking carriage, and said distressedly, "Girl, don't let the coachman slow down, the city gate has just opened, don't be in such a hurry." ”

Xinyue was still talking, and Mama Wang gave Feng'er a look to calm her down.

Silence returned to the carriage, and Crescent Moon was now in turmoil, she hated knowing everything in advance, and seemed to be able to feel Yu He's pain. However, this pain is only temporary, and now many things have been changed by themselves, but there are still some things that cannot be changed.

In her dream, the death of the crown prince is not the beginning of everything, and the place where all tragedies begin is the funeral of the queen mother. Rong Ying at the funeral of the Queen Mother, instead of the Son of Heaven, is considered a symbol of the crown prince, since that day, Rong Ying has not hidden his ambitions, he has been operating in the Bingzhou area for many years, and has wantonly installed his own power in the court, step by step to empty His Majesty, and finally, after a year, forced the palace.

The taxi seemed to be pressed against a stone, Xinyue reached out to hold the wall of the car on the side, and then opened her crystal eyes, and said to Mama Wang, "Mama, if the Queen Mother is not good, what should I do?" ”

"The Queen Mother loves you the most, and she will definitely arrange everything for you before leaving with confidence. And Your Majesty is your own uncle, and the next Majesty is also your cousin, so you don't have to worry too much. Mama Wang held Xinyue's hand with her backhand, Xinyue coughed twice, and said with a wry smile, "Cousin, Mama, do you think he wants to be my cousin?" ”

Mama Wang also frowned, and then said, "Girl, don't be afraid. ”

"New moon, don't be afraid, everyone has such a day, but this day is finally my turn." The new moon threw herself in front of the queen mother's bed, the moon was gone, the queen mother was already thin and only a handful of bones were left, she was suffering in her illness, and she was afraid that she had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

"Grandmother, don't, don't!" Crescent Moon tried to hold back her tears, but her trembling voice had betrayed her.

"Don't cry, good boy. Come, talk to my grandmother. The Queen Mother grabbed Xinyue's arm with her remaining skinned hand, and Xinyue stood up, sat sideways on the edge of the bed, and knelt down in front of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand and stroked Xinyue's hair, "You are really different from your mother, she is a princess, so carefully raised, but her hair is yellow and fine, not like your hair at all, oily and shiny." Her voice was already very low, but she was not choked, retaining the last bearing of the Queen Mother.

"Grandmother, the new moon is not filial, you love me so much, but I have no way to serve in front of your bed, I want to accompany you, but you don't give me this opportunity."

"Are you blaming me?" The Queen Mother's voice was actually smiling.

"It is said that raising children to prevent old age, you raise me, but I can't do my filial piety before bed, how can I still be your child?" Xinyue leaned against the Queen Mother's side, and her heart, which had forced herself to be strong, seemed particularly weak by her side at this time.

"I raised you, your uncle, and mother, not all to make you filial to me, but I watched you grow up, and I was happy to see you call me mother, grandmother, and grandmother. I have been too bitter in this life, I hate those people to death, but those people pushed me, that person also let me have your mother and your uncle, and finally had a group of children in your family, it was you who made me, this my life has not been bitter to the end. Crescent, I'm going to see him again. The Queen Mother was still a little confused, and what she said didn't match her words, but Xinyue knew who the person he was talking about was, so Xinyue asked softly, "Grandmother, do you love him?" ”

"I love him as much as I hate him. It's just that he doesn't love me, and he doesn't have that much love in his life. And that only love was also given to the woman who had everything. It's so unfair, God, you're so unfair. The Queen Mother stretched out her other hand, as if to grasp something, as if she wanted to grab God's collar and reason with him.

"You mean Queen Chai?"

Xinyue heard the Queen Mother sneer, "She wants to be beautiful, and I want to be beautiful." ”

"Mother..."The new moon heard the voice and quickly looked up, the person who came was His Majesty, no one announced, he walked in from outside the door, the new moon wanted to stand up but was stopped by His Majesty, His Majesty whispered to the new moon "The two of us have a good time with her." ”

"Zhi'er, Zhi'er is you" Rong Zhi is the name of His Majesty today, and the Queen Mother is the only one in the world who dares to call him by this name.

"Mother, it's a son." His Majesty sat on the other side of the bed and took the raised hand of the Queen Mother, "Son, I have come to greet you, how do you feel today?" ”

"It's still the same, Zhi'er, you see your sister is back, she can be regarded as back, why did you marry her so far, she ran away for a day and a night, you speak quietly, don't wake her up." Xinyue felt that the Queen Mother was stroking her hair, as if she was coaxing herself to sleep.

"Yes, it's Zhi'er's fault, but isn't she, is she back?"

"Well, it's good to come back. You are all by my side, you are all by my side, I am better than that woman, she has no children and no daughters, but she has everything, he has her love, he has what I have not gotten in my life, an affectionate look. ”

"Mother, you have everything. You are the queen mother of the dynasty, the most honorable queen mother of this dynasty. The woman who has no name and was rejected by her father when she was alive, she is not as good as you. Xinyue heard His Majesty say this, and was a little puzzled, he always thought that the first emperor's favorite woman was Queen Chai, after all, he ordered to be buried with Queen Chai alone, and the Queen Mother had to build another mausoleum alone. And Empress Chai also has a title, and she was not rejected by the first emperor, so who is this woman he is talking about?

"Zhi'er, I don't want all this, none of this belongs to me, if I can change it, I am willing to use this to switch a true heart, if it is not enough to change, then I also want to die as bad as her. Ning'er, good boy, Ning'er, take a look at your mother. "Ning'er, is the nickname given by the Queen Mother for Xinyue's mother, the eldest princess, and in this world, only the Queen Mother remembers this name.

"I've never gotten anything, you two, so precious. I'll tell myself that it's enough for me to take care of you. But even you don't take care of you. Because I am so incompetent, your brother cannot hold his head up in front of his brother, and you can only live with me in that little palace. Zhi'er, my good boy, I have also suffered you, if it weren't for fate, you wouldn't have picked up this burden. ”

Her Majesty "Mother" was also uncomfortable, her voice trembled, and her eyes were red.

"Listen to me, you have to take care of your sister, even if your mother is gone, you take care of her. Don't let her be like me, be someone else's slave, be unfaithful to the slave, and be ridiculed. I was forced, but I volunteered, because I liked your father so much, his eyes, hum, his eyes, his eyes were so beautiful, and as soon as his eyes fell on me, I didn't know what to do. Fortunately, you and your sister don't have such a pair of eyes, so they won't, and their eyes are hurtful. Xinyue squinted her eyes after hearing this, the Queen Mother always said that she was not like her mother, especially these eyes, touched her face, what the Queen Mother said, the eyes of the first emperor, isn't...

"Rong Ying, Rong Ying has such a pair of eyes." His Majesty seemed to see the new moon's astonishment, and explained to her, "He is so similar to my father. Always gloomy eyes, I don't know what I'm thinking, but for a woman, for his children, that short stay is endless anticipation. ”
