"Back to Your Majesty, it's the second lady of the Xiao family." Luo Hansheng saluted.

Li Yizhe narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled: "It turned out to be the noble daughter of the Xiao family, and since Luo Qing likes it, she will allow it." ”

Ruoyan's heart suddenly hurt very much, and her feet stumbled slightly, but fortunately, the snow warbler helped her and didn't fall.

Meng Zhaoyi saw that Ruoyan's face was not good, and blessed Li Yizhe with a smile and said: "Xiangye is happy, the concubine is here to congratulate Xiangye." Today is also an auspicious day. Today's Niangniang's birthday, Xiangye has to give new happiness, and Niangniang's brother has also found it back, which is really a triple joy. Niangniang hasn't seen her brother for many years, and she thinks about it tightly, and the child in her belly can also get to know her uncle, right? Your Majesty and Xiangye think they also have something to say. The concubine accompanied the mother to the little grandfather to say a few words of reunion, so as not to disturb His Majesty. ”

"Xiangye has to give new joy, this palace was previously taken care of by Xiangye, and now he has found his brother with the blessing of Xiangye. When the time comes, I will definitely give some generous gifts to add makeup to the new lady. Ruoyan came back to his senses and said with a forced smile.

"Since Ah Yan sent it, then I naturally have to send something." Li Yizhe smiled, "What does Luo Qing want?" ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine has passed with her mother." Meng Zhaoyi was afraid that Ruoyan would be sad, so she hurriedly said hello and took Ruoyan away.

Ruoyan came out of the Star Picking Tower and met Hua Jieyu, who had just received a cold reception. When she couldn't flatter herself, she was interrupted by the Nanban, and she was already uncomfortable, and now she will not feel good when she sees Ruoyan.

"How did Niangniang come out of the Star Picking Tower? Xiangye has to give new joy, and the mother doesn't have much to accompany? Hua Jieyu smiled, with a malicious expression on her face.

"Sister Jiang is really a talker, Niangniang's own brother has not heard from her for many years, and now when she comes back, Niangniang naturally wants to say a few words to her brother. Mingcai in the palace went back to Zhang Luo for some food, and it was not easy for the mother to have a reunion dinner with her own brother? Why didn't my sister let me? Meng Zhaoyi was suddenly surprised, "Could it be that Sister Jiang is in charge of the harem now?" ”

Hua Jieyu's face changed, and she was a little angry: "Zhaoyi said that she laughed." The concubine just thinks ......"

"What do you think? When will Jieyu feel about the affairs of this palace? Ruoyan was already in a bad mood, and it was even more displeasing to listen to Hua Jieyu's chatter at this time.

"Why is the mother so fierce? The concubine just felt that the mother had received the grace of the minister, and now the father had to give new joy, but the mother ran out, isn't it unhappy? ”

"Sister Jiang has forgotten something." Meng Zhaoyi laughed.

"My sister forgot something, and I asked Sister Meng to make it clear." Hua Jieyu was here to make Ruoyan unhappy this time, how could she give up and whisper in Ruoyan's ear, "It's Niangniang, it's good to be forgetful." Have you forgotten the depth of your love for the same husband back then? ”

Meng Zhaoyi looked at Ruoyan's increasingly pale face, and she was also angry. just hid his emotions in his eyes, stepped forward to hold Hua Jieyu's hand and praised: "This jade bracelet on my sister's wrist is good, I think it's mutton fat jade, right?" ”

Hua Jieyu was a little confused, why did she suddenly talk about the bracelet?

She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand out, but suddenly Meng Zhaoyi fell down. It looked like she had been thrown away. Today's feast is that there are many guests outside the Star Picking Building.

Who knew that it was such a coincidence, the son of the Anding family, Meng Zhaoyi's younger brother, and the second young master of the Meng family, Meng Tingyu, happened to be drinking with the servants of the Ministry outside the Star Picking Tower. When he saw his sister fall, he rushed up.

"What is Hua Jieyu pushing my sister for?!" Meng Tingrui was furious, "Sister, you're not hurt, are you?" ”

"Sister is fine, it's just that her foot is here, Tingrui, you go and talk to Your Majesty. My sister and the concubine Niangniang went back to the palace first to ask a doctor to take a look. Meng Zhaoyi said with a painful smile, but cold sweat was already hurting on her forehead.

"Mother, let's go." Meng Zhaoyi pulled Ruoyan.

Ruoyan saw that Meng Zhaoyi was injured, and she also lost her temper. said sharply: "Come on, Hua Jieyu will push Meng Zhaoyi to make trouble, and take her back to be grounded." ”

Hua Jieyu was so angry that her teeth itched, and Meng Zhaoyi actually used such a simple means to deal with her. Ruoyan also ordered her to be grounded. How can this be? She also knew that she should not argue at this time, so she immediately had a plan, and knelt down with a puff and wiped a few tears: "Niang Niang forgive your sins." The concubine didn't know that the prime minister was unhappy with the new bride, and she shouldn't make the lady angry at this time. The mother still has a body, so don't move the fetus. The concubine accepted the punishment and only begged the mother not to be angry. ”

Hua Jieyu said cautiously. Suddenly, Yun Ting appeared with a smile, "It's a felony to frame the concubine!" What's more, His Majesty and Niangniang are now in deep love, and today is the birthday banquet prepared by His Majesty for Niangniang, and even the Nanban Khan came to congratulate him on his birthday. Jieyu is afraid that she will make Her Majesty angry by provoking right and wrong like this, does Jieyu think Your Majesty will cut off Jieyu's beautiful head? ”

Hua Jieyu is not scared in the end.

"There was such a thing at the beginning, where can it be regarded as a concubine framing the mother?"

"It's true that Niangniang was a childhood sweetheart with her grandfather, and it is not false that she had friendship with each other. It's just that His Majesty has been in love with Niangniang for a long time, and now when she finally got Niangniang's sincerity, Jieyu mentioned the old things again, what is it for, Jieyu knows it in her heart. After Yun Ting finished speaking, he stopped looking at her, walked to Ruoyan's side and said with a smile, "Let's go, Yan Yan, let's go to the reunion dinner." When I went to Uncle Meng's house in my early years, I tasted Aunt Qin's craftsmanship and only remembered that it was good. I think the taste of the small kitchen in Zhaoyi Palace should be similar to the taste of Aunt Qin's cooking. Yan Yan, don't you like that smell too? ”

"yes, let's go."

Yun Ting left after eating, Ruoyan returned to the palace, and when he was about to sleep, Ling Yin came over and saluted.

"Niangniang, Hua Jieyu has been punished, and her status has been reduced to a beauty."

"Got it." Ruoyan obviously didn't care about Hua Jieyu's affairs.

"Xiangye...... The slave came over and passed a word to the mother. Xiangye said that since the mother has made a choice, she will not pursue any future and past, so she will ...... When he bears his mother, the past is counted on his head. Ling Yin knelt down.

"Got it." Ruoyan closed her eyes, "Let's get out." ”

After Ling Yin went out, Ruoyan put herself under the quilt and sobbed softly.

After the nightless banquet passed, the days were stable, and she never asked about Luo Hansheng's marriage. Soon in winter, Ruoyan's belly began to grow, and Li Yizhe accompanied her when she was free. But she always felt as if something was wrong...... It's almost there.

On the eighth day of December, Meng Zhaoyi brought a few children's clothes over to see her: "Niangniang, look, do these clothes look good?" The beginning of spring is approaching the delivery period, and these things are prepared for the concubines. ”

Ruoyan took the clothes with a smile, and suddenly heard Meng Zhaoyi say: "Xiangye's wedding date is the day after tomorrow." Mother......

Ruoyan didn't speak, but his heart felt like a needle prick.

Outside, a little palace maid shouted happily: "It's snowing, it's snowing!" ”

Ruoyan opened the window and looked at the snowflakes outside the window, and was a little stunned for a while.

"Sister Meng." She called, "You say, it's snowing, isn't it time for the coldest day?" ”

"Perhaps." Meng Zhaoyi sighed.

"Xiao Qi is probably trying on her wedding dress." Ruoyan chuckled, "Time flies so fast." ”

"If the mother is unhappy, why don't you eat something to suppress your thoughts?" Meng Zhaoyi looked at her and felt a little uncomfortable, "I made ham and tofu soup in the kitchen today, and I also made roasted mutton." Niang Niang use some? ”

"Sister Meng, I'm no longer a child. I can't be coaxed by the food. Ruoyan smiled softly, but there was sadness in her eyes.

"There are some things that don't always take it too seriously." Meng Zhaoyi handed over a cup of hot tea.

"I once said that Xiao Qi could never marry him. Now it slapped me in the face. Ruoyan smiled coldly, "Sister Meng, does it hurt so much to like someone?" ”

"Perhaps." Meng Zhaoyi suddenly remembered something sad. was also very embarrassed for a while, "Some things are not up to people." It's time to put it down. Whether you like it or not is your business, but whether you can stay together for a lifetime is a matter of fate. I can't force it. ”

"yes." Ruoyan put on a smiling face, "Sister Meng, let's go out for a walk." ”

"It had just snowed, and the ground was very slippery. Let's go out to see the plum blossoms tomorrow, okay? The plum blossoms in the snow are very beautiful, and when the time comes, let the palace people pick some snow tea to taste. Meng Zhaoyi coaxed her.

"Mother, Your Majesty is here." The snow warbler came to report.

"Ah Yan," Li Yizhe seemed to be very happy, with a smile on his face, "Guess what?" There was a box of purple water essence in the Sui Gong sent by Nanban this year. I've got a craftsman to give you a face, okay? ”

"With such a rare gem as the purple water spirit, wouldn't it be too wasteful to make a face for the concubine?"

"How can it be wasted? Ah Yan is so beautiful, the purple water essence is only suitable for Ah Yan. Li Yizhe sat next to Ruoyan.

Meng Zhaoyi smiled: "Since Your Majesty has something to say to Niangniang, the concubine will retreat." ”

After Meng Zhaoyi left, Li Yizhe saw that Ruoyan seemed to be a little unhappy, so he asked her, "Something on your mind?" ”

"Your Majesty is a roundworm in the belly of your concubine? How do you know that the concubine has something on her mind? Ruoyan glanced at him.

"Luo Hansheng's wedding the day after tomorrow, do you dare to say that you are happy?"

Li Yizhe put things on the bright side with one sentence.

"Since Your Majesty knows, why bother to say it. Jealous? Ruoyan took a sip of hot tea.

"To be jealous is to be jealous. But I can afford to wait. If I can't wait for you for a day, I'll wait one more day, and if I can't wait for you for a year, I'll wait one more year. If you can't wait ten years, wait another ten years. The coming day is long, and it's a big deal to wait for you for a lifetime. Li Yizhe smiled.

"Your Majesty is really good at talking. How can they all marry and have children, and then wait for it? Ruoyan gave him a blank look.

"Isn't that the first one?" Li Yizhe rubbed her hair, "Ah Yan, I want you to be happy." Happy for a lifetime. Don't be upset, okay. Don't feel sorry for others, okay? I'll be jealous and I'll be sad. I love you. ”
