Chapter 107: Entrusting the Heart
It's night.
The moonlight is soft. Shine like a silver platter.
It's late autumn. This soft moonlight like water is also stained with a few hints of coolness.
Su Yi leaned over and lay on the kang table. Looking out at the full moon through the half-open window. Qiu Ruo draped a cloak of lake blue satin feathers over her. The fox fur on the brim of her hat was soft against her long black hair. This is the scene that Hongli saw when he came in. She rests on her arm. The head is tilted slightly. Staring fixedly at the shadows of the trees outside. Moonlight in the sky.
The silver moonlight shrouded her body as if it gave her a soft glow. Hongli gently walked over to her and sat on the other side of the kang couch. also followed her example, leaning over on the kang table and staring at her. Whispered, "What are you looking at?"
Su Yi held out a hand to her lips. Shh......h
Hongli was still looking at her. It's just that the corners of his lips are hooked up with a smile. For the first time since the boy was gone, she was willing to talk to him.
Hongli pressed the joy that flooded his heart. Uh-huh.
"Did you hear me?"
Su Yi said suddenly.
Hongli was stunned for a moment. What."
"The child's cry ......"
Su Yi said. The expression on his face became more and more gentle.
Hongli's heart suddenly sank into the abyss. He straightened up and stared blankly at Su Yi. Su Yi tilted her head and said to herself: "He cried for a long time...... It's been a long time......"
Hirorichi grabbed her shoulder. Staring at her. Said bitterly: "Suyi. Wake up. Our children are gone. He's dead......"
Su Yi looked at him blankly for a long time. Then he looked out at the silent courtyard. Suddenly, he struggled: "You liar. My child didn't die. He's crying...... He's looking for me...... I'm going to find him...... I'm going to find my kids......" he said as he struggled to run outside.
Hongli hurried to catch up with her. Wrapping his arms around her waist. Hold down her struggling arm. Persuaded: "Su Yi...... The child is gone...... It's not good for me. I couldn't keep him......"
"But I can't help it. The child is with you...... I can only choose one...... What do you say I should do?"
Hongli's voice was full of pain. He looked at Su Yi with pain and pity. I can't give up that child...... But I can't give it up...... It's you ......."
Su Yi gradually quieted down. Hongli pulled her body. Looking at her sadly." Suyi ...... Don't torture yourself like this. Don't torture me like that......"
The last sentence is already with a pleading. Su Yi looked at him with teary eyes. muttered, "I really heard...... There are children crying......"
After saying a word, his body softened weakly. Hongli hurriedly hugged her. Called: "Suyi...... Suyi ......"
But I saw that her eyes were closed. I'm still in tears, and I'm already fainting. Hongli picked her up with his hands crossed and walked towards the house......
The full moon was gradually obscured by layers of light mist. All that's left is a crooked squeeze. The cold wind rises. The shadows of the trees are slanting and the moon is shallow......
The time will pass. The concubines in the Chengqian Palace finally smiled.
Xue Yan slowly walked down from a soft sedan chair. A magenta satin-embroidered cloak wrapped around her small body. And in her arms, a baby was wrapped in a small futon embroidered with Su embroidered double happiness. The baby was still crying. The sound is loud.
The concubine hurried out of the dormitory. I was wearing only my underwear.
Xue Yan smiled: "Cousin is really. The so-called mother-son connection is probably just the same. When I heard the child's cry, I already guessed that it was Xue Yan......"
The concubine frowned. Picking up the child from her arms, she said angrily, "I said that this child is still young. Can't leave me. You have to hug it and play. How can I send it back now?"
"I'm also distressed when this little guy cries like this...... Ah. Don't be angry, cousin...... Xue Yan knew it was wrong. Even if you like this child no matter how much you don't wait for this child to grow up, Xue Yan won't dare to hug it and play anymore......"
Only then did the concubine sigh. It's so late. Go back to sleep."
Xue Yan nodded. A sly smile.
Looked up at the night sky. But I saw that the bright moon didn't know when there was only a crooked one. Even this bright moon is not a hundred yen. How much more are people......
In the Imperial Dining Room.
Qin Han took a piece of rice paper and handed it to Qiu Ruo. Say, "This is today's lunch. You see how."
Qiu Ruo took it slowly. It's just that the look is still a little apprehensive. Qin Han called: "Qiu Ruo ......"
Qiu Ruo slowly put his eyes on the paper. Take a look around. Fang sighed for a moment. Said: "It's all her favorite dishes. But it didn't work......"
Qin Han's eyebrows furrowed. She still can't eat it."
Qiu Ruo nodded. "It's been ten days. Long live the Lord who comes to see her every day. But she never paid attention to Long Live Lord. The same goes for meals. She couldn't eat anything. The mandarin ducks you painstakingly made yesterday are exquisite. I persuaded her for a long time before she barely ate some. But then I spit it out again......"
"What did Imperial Doctor Sun say?"
"Doctor Sun said that she was depressed. Weakness of qi and blood. If you go on like this, you're only afraid of ......"
Qiu Ruo didn't dare to say any more. After a pause, he said. Little Lord, she has been weak since she was a child. Since the last poisoning, I have not had time to recuperate and become pregnant. Later, he fell into the water again and was already weak. This production is even more fateful. It's easy to pull back from the ghost gate. I'm really worried about ......."
He choked up as he spoke. Qin Han also had a solemn face. Comforted: "Don't cry. Why don't I go and see her tomorrow? We worked together in the Imperial Dining Room. She should be able to listen to me."
Qiu Ruo wiped her tears. Nodding.
The sun was brilliant on the second day.
Su Yi lay softly on the beauty couch basking in the sun. When I was about to fall asleep, I only heard a very clear call: "Su Yi ......"
Su Yi thought it was a dream. I didn't respond, but I heard a very crisp and pleasant birdsong. Tactful and brisk. Her heart moved slightly. Raise your hand and remove the plain white silk handkerchief covering your face. Slowly opened his eyes.
I saw Qin Han holding a golden wire birdcage in his hand. He was looking at her with a smile on his face.
Su Yi was slightly stunned. Qiu Ruo walked up to Su Yi with a food box in her hand and put it on the small table. smiled: "Master. Brother Qin specially made a few dishes you love today. Do you want to eat some first?"
Su Yi raised her eyes and looked at Qin Han. Qin Han showed a bright smile. Said: "Suyi ......"
The courtyard is deep. The autumn sun is supposed to be a little warm. Through the jagged leaves fell on his body. Even the light smile on his lips was tinged with warmth.
Su Yi slowly stood up. Qiu Ruo immediately held her up. Su Yi showed an extremely pale smile: "Brother Qin......"
The voice was weak and a little hoarse. Qin Han looked at her thin shoulders and felt a tingling in his heart. Su Shui's clothes are extremely inappropriate to wear on her body. The waist is empty there. Cheeks pale as paper. Those clear eyes are as black as thick ink. There is no brilliance.
Hold back the stinging pain in your heart. Qin Han said with a smile: "Yesterday, Dongsheng got a bird from the little eunuch in the Jingshifang. The coat color is bright. The cry is also very crisp and tactful. I'll use it to relieve your boredom."
Su Yi looked at the birdcage in his hand. Slightly hooked lips. Changxi hurriedly took it. praised: "This little thing looks pleasing......"
Qin Han said: "Dongsheng said that this bird can also speak human words. It's just that I've been teaching it for a long time and I haven't seen it speak. If you want to listen to it, let Changxi go to the worship room tomorrow and invite that little father-in-law of Zhao Lin to try it."
Su Yi smiled lightly. Changxi said excitedly: "This bird is really good at talking. That's great."
Qin Han nodded. Changxi said happily, "I'll teach it."
As he spoke, he took the cage and walked towards the corridor. Qiu Ruo smiled: "I'll take a look, too."
The atmosphere froze for a while. Qin Han walked up to Su Yi and opened the food box and said, "I heard Qiu Ruo say that you don't have a good appetite lately. I made a couple of dishes that you love. You try it and see if it suits your taste. If you don't like it, I'll do it for you."
Looking at the four-color dishes on the table, which are full of color and aroma. Su Yi suppressed the sourness that kept churning in her stomach. There is a trace of warmth in my heart. This heart touched her in the end. She whispered, "Thank you. Brother Qin......"
Qin Han sat on a chair beside him. Hand the chopsticks to Su Yi." Let's take a few bites...... I didn't do anything this morning. I made these four dishes......"
Su Yi looked at the dark and shiny sandalwood jade chopstick. After a moment's hesitation, he slowly took it. But the chest of the dish that was only sandwiched twice felt dull. An uneasy breath surged. She covered her lips and coughed twice. The jade chopsticks in his hands are also slight. Seeing her like this, Qin Han hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it to her. Su Yi took the cup and was about to drink. But there was a sour feeling in his throat. She put down her cup. I got up and walked to the side, and I spit out with a "wow" sound. I've only eaten two bites, and I don't have anything to vomit in my appetite. I vomited for a while but it was just some yellow water. Qin Han gently patted her back and asked worriedly, "I'll go call the imperial doctor. You're ...... like that."
He turned and wanted to go. Su Yi grabbed his sleeve and coughed violently. The body spasms for more than a while before subsided. But the hand that was placed on his lips was clenched tightly to one side. Between the fingers was bright red, but there were blood stains.
It's just that Qin Han didn't see it. Su Yi hooked her lips weakly. Whispered, "I'm fine...... Brother Qin......"
Qin Han looked at her deeply. I just feel that her smile carries infinite sadness and sorrow. It was as if the pain had spread to the bottom of his heart. He sighed silently as he looked at the delicate pale fingers clutched on the cuffs.
It seems that I just noticed it. Su Yi slowly let go of his sleeves. In a low voice, "I'm sorry...... I ......"
Qin Han smiled reluctantly. Nothing ......"
Su Yi smiled comfortably. Brother Qin...... You're doing well in the Imperial Dining Room."
Qin Han shook his head. The look is solemn. I hesitated for a long time." Suyi ...... Your body...... You have to take good care of it......"
"The matter between you and Banzai. I don't know if I'm not going to say much. But we used to work together in the Imperial Dining Room. You are as mine in my heart...... My sister is ...... in general."
"Brother Qin......" Su Yi muttered. I wanted to say something, but my lips moved, but I didn't speak.
Qin Han paused and said. Both are older brothers. I can't look at my sister like this and feel sorry for herself. Emaciated and depressed......"
"Little brother died. I know the bitterness of your heart. But what was the situation at the time...... If it were me. I'll keep you first...... You can't blame the emperor for this...... The child is gone. The emperor is also very sad in his heart......"
"Suyi...... You have your pains. The emperor also has his helplessness. The emperor is good to you. Needless to say, you know it in your heart. Harem beauties three thousand. But the emperor is the most attentive to you...... Just look at his heart for you, you should forgive him......"
"You're so persistent and won't let go. At the end of the day...... It's still you who hurt......"
"Know that the body is your own. If you don't cherish it. Others can't help you even if they want to......"
The words are earnest. The look is so gentle. Suyi's heart was not unmoved. But what could she.
So far. What can she do.
She smiled dejectedly. said: "Brother Qin......"
Qin Han looked at her. She said, "What Brother Qin said. Su Yi understands it in her heart. Su Yi will take good care of her ......"
Qin Han's frowning brows stretched slightly. Su Yi said again. However, Su Yi has something she wants to ask Brother Qin ......"
"You say ......"
Su Yi looked at Qiu Ruo, who came in the distance with tea fruits. said: "Brother Qin has someone in his heart."
Qin Han was stunned. Then he shook his head. Su Yi smiled. What does Brother Qin think of Qiu Ruo?"
Only then did Qin Han understand what she was referring to. I felt at a loss in my heart and didn't know how to speak. Su Yi said again. If the autumn is two years later, it will be the age to leave the palace. She doesn't have any relatives outside the palace. I want to entrust her to Brother Qin......"
Qin Han only felt as if a thousand catties of stone had been pressed in his heart. The stone weighed him down. He was silent for a long time. Seeing Su Yi looking at him earnestly, he said, "Can Brother Qin agree to Su Yi's request?"
Qin Han's clenched palm slowly stretched out. Nodding.
Su Yi smiled brightly. Qiu Ruo had already walked over with the tea fruit.
Drizzle fluttering. The red leaves wither and grind into the dust.
It's another drizzling day. Apricot is sitting in front of the window, hanging her head and embroidering a pale color bag. The trick is complete. She was hooking the lines with the concubine-colored silk thread. Hiroshi walked in from outside. casually unfastened the dark green cloak on his body. Immediately a maid came over and took it.
Xing'er looked up and saw him with a smile: "It's not raining."
Hongsun shook his head. I went in a sedan chair. It's fine."
Apricot looked out at the rainy courtyard. And he said, "I don't know what's going on this year. There's a lot of rain."
Hongtian walked over to her and saw the bag in her hand. Raised his eyebrows and said, "This color is not suitable for my ......"
Xing'er smiled quietly: "Self-inflicted."
"This is for Suyi......"
The smile on Hongyang's face froze. Oh".
Xing'er said again. When I went to Hanyue Temple to offer incense on the first day of junior high school, I asked for a peace charm for Su Yi and came back. I'd like to wrap it up with this bag and give it to her."
Hongtian casually picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip. He said, "It's not good to look at the royal brother at me this morning. It's probably because of Su Yi'......"
Apricot sighed. Walked over to Hongsun and sat down." I went to see her the other day. She looked very haggard. Doctor Sun said that Su Yi's body has always been weak, and if she doesn't recuperate well after this blow, she is only afraid of ......"
"Just afraid of what." Hongzhi asked.
"I'm just afraid...... Time is running out......" Apricot said hesitantly. Hongday's face changed suddenly. The teacup in his hand rests on the table. Gaze." So serious."
Apricot nodded. His eyes were a little moist." Su Yi's mother died in childbirth before term when she gave birth to Su Yi. Su Yi has not been in good health since she was a child. Since entering the palace, I have been frightened and worried every day. And since the little brother died, Su Yi has been even more depressed. Her physical weakness is one. It's heart disease that counts......"
Hongyang sighed longly: "You have nothing to do in the mansion to go into the palace to accompany her. Comfort her. I'll go and tell him...... Brother Huang."
Apricot nodded. The tips in the palm of the hand are getting tighter and tighter. Suyi ...... It's because I can't stand you......
