12. Falling overboard

The one who stretched out his hand put a white magnolia in his hand, the flower stalk was hard and slender, the flower bud bloomed, pulled up a long hair, inserted a white magnolia, and in an instant the whole person had a more vague and elegant temperament, the wind hit again, the light blue dress flew silently, under the moonlight, like a fairy, people couldn't take their eyes off.

Only a small sound sounded, Xia Li turned his head, Wei Wuxian stood in the moonlight in a white guard uniform in the distance, looking at her from a distance, the two had no verbal communication, just a look, Xia Li understood Wei Wuxian's heart, and couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Mother, it's late at night, go back and rest." Luo'er put the cloak on Xia Li's body and whispered.

Xia Li nodded lightly, and followed Luo'er back to the palace, and after a long time, he spoke slowly, "Luo'er, do you know that there was once a Concubine Lan in this harem?" ”

"The slave maid has heard about it, I only heard that it is somewhat similar to the mother, I accidentally fell into the water a few years ago, I heard that there is a prince in the belly, or Concubine Mei saved her regardless of her life, but unfortunately it is still Xiang Xiaoyu died." Luo'er said cautiously. I don't understand why Xia Li suddenly asked about a concubine who was already dead.

Xia Li turned her head, stared at Luo'er, and said in a low voice, "Luo'er, you remember what the palace told you tonight, don't spread it, otherwise you and I will die..."

When Luo'er heard this, she hurriedly knelt on the ground, looked up at Xia Li, and said, "Niangniang, the slave maid was brought into the palace by the maid, and the glory and wealth in the future depend on the maiden. ”

Xia Li nodded with satisfaction, pulled Luo'er, looked around again, and told Luo'er everything she had encountered in Shangshufu in a deep voice, and Luo'er's face was surprised when she heard it, and for a long time, Luo'er didn't dare to speak.

"Mother, the slave knows what to do." Luo'er buried all the secrets in her heart and decided to help Xia Li fulfill her wish.

"Okay, now that you already know, in the future, you don't have to worry about what this palace does." Xia Li said as she took off the magnolia on her head and put it in her hand to gaze.

"The slave remembers." Luo'er nodded.

All night, Xia Li was immersed in her thoughts, and it wasn't until dawn that she gradually fell asleep.

Feng Moyu stood at the head of her bed, staring, seeing her suddenly wake up, she smiled and said, "Awake?" ”

"Your Majesty!" Xia Li hurriedly got up and saluted, but was stopped by Feng Moyu, "Why did the emperor come to the concubine's bedroom at this hour and not let his subordinates report it?" ”

"I didn't let them say it, I heard that you didn't go to bed until dawn, and I was reluctant to wake you up." Feng Moyu pulled Xia Li, her tone was gentle, and her bright yellow dragon robe was a little dazzling in the sun.

"Why don't you serve your mother to freshen up?" Feng Moyu shouted out of the hall in a deep voice.

Luo'er hurriedly entered with two girls, saluted, and began to groom Xia Li, Luo'er skillfully pulled up Xia Li's long hair, and Feng Moyu on this side stepped forward and inserted a phoenix hairpin into her thick hair, which caused Xia Li to be shy.

Xia Li followed Feng Moyu out of the dormitory, only to see that breakfast had already been prepared in the side hall, and I saw a bowl of hot dumplings on the table, Feng Moyu took her hand and sat on one side, and said, "This is what I specially asked the imperial dining room to prepare for the concubine, try it?" ”

Xia Li smiled and nodded, and then saw that there was a lot of food on the table, but there was only a bowl of dumplings, and hurriedly said, "The concubine serves the emperor for dinner." ”

"I watched my concubine eat." Feng Moyu actually took the bowl and gave it to Xia Li for a dumpling with his own hands.

Xia Li was flattered, and hurriedly opened her mouth, swallowed it, frowned, and swallowed the dumpling in her mouth hard, to, "How is it raw?" ”

"Hahahaha!" Feng Moyu put down the bowl, laughed loudly, and said, "This is what Concubine Ai said herself!" ”

"Your Majesty?" Xia Li didn't know, looked at Feng Moyu with a puzzled expression, and only listened to Xiao Fanzi on the side explain.

"Niangniang, this is the rule of the palace, if the emperor wants any Niangniang to give birth to a dragon seed for him, he will let the imperial dining room prepare a bowl of dumplings, but the emperor fed it himself, and the slave is still seeing it for the first time."

Xia Li understood it at the moment, it turned out to be this kind of meaning, and hurriedly got up and saluted, "The concubine is frightened, thank you for the emperor's gift!" ”

In the harem, not anyone who wants to have a child can give birth casually, Xia Li knows this rule, now Feng Moyu wants to let herself have a child, for her, it is already a great grace, now only Concubine Duan and Concubine Mei have given birth to a son and a daughter, and now she has only entered the palace for a month, so she has this honor, Xia Li secretly remembers that she must be careful in every way.

"Aifei, hurry up, this breakfast will be cold." Feng Moyu took Xia Li's hand, patted the back of his hand gently, and said softly.

"The concubine never thought that the emperor would treat the concubine like this." Xia Li said slowly, "In the harem, the concubines have the least qualifications, but they can get the emperor's favor, and the concubines must serve the emperor with all their strength and give birth to a dragon son as soon as possible." ”

Xia Li looked up at Feng Moyu, his eyes flowed with brilliance, for a long time, Feng Moyu reached out and stroked her long hair, and said with a smile, "Don't panic with Concubine Ai, I just want a daughter who looks like Concubine Ai, she must be very beautiful." ”

"The concubine is not so good..."

"My concubine, everything is good." Feng Moyu's words stopped in Xia Li's heart for a long time, the emperor treated her like this, I am afraid that he regarded her as the sister of the year, but no matter what, her purpose was achieved.

A little eunuch over there stood outside the hall and said sharply, "Your Majesty! ”

"What's the matter?" Feng Moyu didn't seem to like anyone disturbing him and Xia Li's breakfast, and frowned.

"Back to the emperor, Ning Guiren she..."

"What's wrong with her?" Feng Moyu asked impatiently, it seemed that this Ning nobleman was not favored by the emperor.

"Ning Guiren and Duanfei Niangniang were walking in the imperial garden, and accidentally pushed Duanfei Niangniang into the pool!" The little eunuch bowed his head and said, not daring to look at the emperor's expression.

Xia Li was stunned for a moment, "Is Concubine Duan Niangniang good?" ”

"Now I've called the Imperial Doctor." The little eunuch continued, "Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty, Concubine Duan's sister has always been very kind to her concubines, and the concubines want to go to Yaohua Palace to have a look." Xia Li still thinks about Concubine Duan's kindness to her, if it weren't for Concubine Duan, I'm afraid she wouldn't have seen the emperor yet.

Fortunately, this Yaohua Palace and Liushui Palace are not far away, the two of them rushed all the way by car, and they saw some maids and women standing in the courtyard, and several concubines saw Feng Moyu and hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye.

"How's it going?" Feng Moyu asked in a deep voice, swept over Ning Guiren who was kneeling on the ground in the courtyard with a dark face, frowned and scolded, "Come on, what's going on?" ”

Ning Guiren saw Feng Moyu's gloomy face, and hurriedly knelt on the ground with rain, and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't know what's wrong, she originally had a good chat with Concubine Duan, but she didn't know that there was a bee there, so she rushed in front of Niangniang, and as soon as Niangniang stumbled, she fell into the water!" ”
