In addition to treating me as a daughter, the Queen Mother also opened a lot of back doors for me.

For example, ordinary women have to dress up very solemnly and complicated when they enter the palace, I don't need to, I just need to dress dignifiedly, just so as not to trouble me.

Hee-hee-hee!

Although Duanwang muttered to himself several times, I don't always run out when I am pregnant, but I can't stop his mother from wanting to see my belly and my heart yearning for the outside.

You can go out and play again!

When I arrived at the palace, the old rule was that Jin Yan couldn't go in, and there was already a palace maid waiting for me at the door.

There was also a little picket next to her, and I was stunned when I saw it.

Originally, the Queen Mother had good intentions, and she was pregnant and let me take two steps less.

But that thing is really high, normal people have to hurt half to death if they fall down and keep breaking their hands and feet, not to mention me, a pregnant woman?

And pregnant women are supposed to walk more to give birth smoothly, and the ancients didn't pay attention to this.

I could only tell the little palace maid that I wanted to walk around the palace under the pretext that the weather was good.

Now I am the meat on the tip of the queen mother's heart, I said that if I want to go, how dare the palace maid say nothing, of course, she will accompany me to wander around.

I've been to the palace several times, and I'm familiar with where to go.

As he was walking, he suddenly heard someone shouting from behind.

"Wei Yao!"

I was stunned, and after a while, I reacted, oh, I'm Wei Yao.

When I turned around, I saw Prince Izawa waving at me and trotting a few steps in front of me.

I took a step back, almost subconsciously.

I haven't forgotten that the last time I saw him was on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Just because I said a few words to him, Duanwang's old vinegar jar almost broke my wrist.

"Long time no see!" Izawa smiled at me with a sunny smile.

I blinked before I came back to my senses, squatted down and said politely, "Prince Izawa." ”

It's a courtesy.

I didn't look at him, and I didn't know what his expression was.

But Jing Ze didn't speak, just waved his hand and motioned for the palace maid next to me to take a few steps back.

Why do you want to tell my palace maid to go away, it's just two of you now, it's so embarrassing, let's say something.

"Prince Izawa...... Why are you in the palace at this time? ”

Jing Ze replied: "Come into the palace to play chess with Your Majesty." ”

He thought for a while, and added: "Your Majesty plays chess well, and you can't find an opponent in the palace, so you often call me into the palace to play." ”

Burst!

I almost didn't laugh out loud: "Aren't you just turning around a corner and boasting about how well you played chess?" ”

Besides, that's the emperor, even if someone is doing well, where can he dare to win the emperor?

Take 10,000 steps back, even if the emperor is lonely and defeated, he can't bear to be beaten by others, right?

It's just you.

After saying that, I was also surprised, didn't I just think about holding it a little, why did the fox's tail show so quickly.

I was nervous, but Jing Ze didn't care, just chuckled and said, "You will know if I play chess well or not." ”

I was stunned, I always felt that he had something to say, but I couldn't say it.

"I heard that you are pregnant, and I am very happy for you." Jing Ze was still talking to himself, "But is everything okay?" ”

I nodded, just in time to see the jade around his waist.

"By the way," I thought of it, "last time on Chinese New Year's Eve, you seemed to have a piece of jade left on me." ”

Jing Ze's face didn't change, he just tilted his head with a smile: "Really?" ”

"Well," I nodded in affirmation, "there's a tic-tac-toe on that jade, I guess it's yours." ”

Of course, I don't dare to say that Jin Yan has already told me the ins and outs.

It's a very awkward relationship, and if you don't pretend to be confused, you don't know what trouble it will cause.

Jing Ze snorted a slight smile on the tip of his nose and lowered his head: "I did lose a piece of jade, but I don't know when." If it's with you, give it back to me if you have a chance. ”

I nodded my head: "Then ......"

How can you pay it back?

I definitely can't go to his house to find him, let alone let King Duan take me there.

But if I had sent someone to Jing Ze's house, wouldn't the whole world have known that I had received it privately with him?

Hey, how do I know so much now?

"There is a teahouse in the east of the city, called Siyuanju, no matter rain or shine, I will drink tea there every day." Jing Ze bent his eyebrows and smiled, "When you are free, you can come and sit together." ”

Two hours of tea every afternoon?

emmm…… Is it so cool to be a hostage?

"I see," I agreed, "then I'll let my girl send it to you then." ”

Izawa didn't speak, just looked at me quietly.

I looked up and met his eyes.

"The Queen Mother is still waiting for me, so I'm ...... I'll go first......"

Let's hurry up, if this reaches the ears of King Duan, I feel that he can be unhappy again.

Hearing my words, Izawa lowered his face and nodded silently.

Assi, let's withdraw first.

I quickly turned around to leave.

"Wei Yao," Jing Ze called me again.

I looked back and saw him barely pull out a smile: "Is King Duan good to you?" ”

A warm wind blew in my ears, and in a trance, I always felt that this sentence had been asked to me by Izawa last time.

"Okay," I smiled at him, "he's very nice to me." ”

I touched my stomach as I spoke.

You see that my husband and wife are harmonious and loving and still looking forward to a child, which is enough for you to die, right?

Izawa smiled and nodded, as if he had received a satisfactory answer.

I didn't think much of it, so I quickly turned around and left.

The Queen Mother waited for me for a long time, and when she saw that I finally came, she took my hand and asked for warmth.

After resting for a while, a group of people followed, taking me to see the cranes.

Mother is expensive with her son, the queen mother has a good eye for me, and I am polite when I meet a concubine or concubine on the road.

Hey, what a good mood.

So it's not incomprehensible that some people would be so crazy about power.

When you stand at the pinnacle of power, everyone bows down to you—

Really, just one word:

It's cool!

……

The two so-called cranes in the Imperial Garden are actually nothing more than white cranes, which is nothing unusual to me.

To my surprise, the Queen Mother said that these two cranes were sent by Prince Izawa a few days ago.

The Queen Mother told me a lot about Prince Izawa, and I listened to her old man's chatter as obediently as a chicken.

In the eyes of the Queen Mother, Prince Jing Ze is a noble son who is idle and only knows how to eat, drink and have fun.

However, as the prince of the enemy country who came to his own country as a hostage, the queen mother naturally didn't care.

Jing Ze's mouth is sweet, and he will please the Queen Mother.

Send a jade piece today, send a crane tomorrow, the queen mother only thinks he is a playful little son.

I chatted with the Queen Mother for most of the day, and I had a meal with her, and I saw that the Queen Mother was about to take a nap, so I planned to go back.

Naturally, there are 10,000 reluctances in my heart.

I finally went out, but I just glanced at my mother-in-law, and I had to go back again.

I pondered for a while in the carriage, and asked Jin Yan to go to the coachman and go to a jewelry shop or something.

Women's favorite thing is, of course, shopping.

The coachman also hesitated, after all, King Duan told him to go early and return early, and he was afraid that something would go wrong and he would be unlucky.

But I didn't stop me from getting pregnant, and I sighed when I didn't like it, and the coachman finally relented and agreed to take us to the streets for a while.

It was not without such a thing before, I often used the name of entering the palace to see the queen mother, and wandered outside for half a day before returning home.

Anyway, Duanwang has to go to work, and because I came home late, I couldn't catch people on the street!

Is there any moth on the street in broad daylight?

(What a flag!)

Although there are people from jewelry shops who come to pick out jewelry for me on weekdays, the feeling of shopping by myself is different.

The counter sisters in each store nodded and smiled at each other, and I also picked a bunch of them.

Just as I was happily letting Jin Yan throw the booty into the carriage with the booty, I heard a muffled voice from behind.

"Know the past life, look forward to the present life. This lady, looking at your eyebrows and lotus, are you willing to let the mountain people have a hexagram and count one or two? ”

What the heck?

I looked back and saw an old man with a gray beard, stroking his beard and squinting at me.

I smiled politely at him, not trying to strike a favor.

I've never believed in such a thing as fortune telling.

Jin Yan handed the things in his hand to the coachman, and was about to drive the old man away.

The old man was unhurried, shook his head and looked very disappointed: "Glory and wealth cover people's eyes, it seems that you really plan to leave all the past grievances behind." ”

As he spoke, without waiting for Jin Yan to open his mouth to catch him up, the old man himself turned around and walked away slowly.

I was covered in a spirit, and suddenly I raised my voice and called out to him, "Wait! ”

The old man paused, still slowly, and turned to look at me.

"You ......," the hairs on my back still stood on end, "what did you just say?" ”

The old man smiled lightly: "You know what I say." ”

I tried to calm myself down, and pondered what the old man had just said.

In fact, he said it very ambiguously, and it is more or less applicable to anyone.

But anyone who has some thoughts in his heart will be led away by him.

And I, as Princess Duan, many people know me on this street in the capital.

It is not surprising that an old fortune teller can poke at my most hidden heart by babbling a few words.

I steadied my mind, smiled and asked him, "What does the old gentleman mean by the enmity of the past?" ”

The old man stroked his beard and said unhurriedly: "Naturally, where did you come from, and whether you want to go back there." ”

Rumble!

It was as if a thunderclap sounded in my ears, and I froze in place, not knowing how to react.

The words that I had tried to comfort myself just now suddenly vanished.

The old man couldn't have said it more obviously.

Jin Yan was also a little surprised when she saw my reaction, and gently pulled my sleeve: "Princess, what's wrong with you?" ”

I was summoned by the golden goose and looked at the old man.

The old man was still calm, waiting for me to come back to my senses.
