The road in central Beijing is open and flat, and the carriage is not very bumpy along the way, Xiao Yuexi sits steadily in the carriage, opposite the wind, frost and snow of his peers.

Fengshuang Xue said: "Madam, the slave still thinks that it is too risky for you to go to see Prince Tortoiseshell, in case you ......"

Now Xiao Yuexi is no longer as hostile to her as she was at the beginning, Wen Yan explained very patiently: "I am not at ease, and I don't want to miss this opportunity, I always feel that after I go to meet him, there will be some unexpected gains." You think, since he wants to take me away, it would be unwise to use some reason to rob such a thing. ”

Wind, frost and snow were noncommittal, but they didn't say much—what could she say? The master approved it, and she had to do her best to protect Xiao Yuexi's thoughtfulness.

The carriage went all the way out of the city, and after traveling on the flat official road for a while before stopping, Xiao Yuexi opened the curtain and saw the carriage stopped in front of a Zhuangzi gate.

Zhuangzi looks quite new, sitting at the foot of the mountain, with a dense forest behind it, and in summer, it must be lush and pleasing to the eye.

Zhuangzi is not big, and after the coachman helped Xiao Yuexi out of the carriage, he walked to the door and handed a letter to the attendant guarding the door.

The attendant was originally standing straight, but when he saw the coachman, his face immediately changed, and he whispered: "Qionglou? ”

It was Qiong Lou who was sent out to be the coachman, and he nodded at the attendant and said, "The master writes it himself." ”

The attendant hurriedly read the letter, and after reading it, he looked Xiao Yuexi up and down, and then looked at the wind, frost and snow, this glance made him a little surprised, and he was stunned for a moment before waving his hand and saying respectfully: "It turned out to be Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Yu is resting inside, please follow her subordinates." ”

He calls himself a "subordinate", knows Qiong Lou, and when he sees the wind, frost and snow, he obviously knows her as well. Xiao Yuexi immediately guessed that he was a person from Zangfeng Pavilion, and his status was not low.

Qiong Lou said: "Madam, go in." There is much to do today, and there is no delay. ”

Xiao Yuexi nodded and stepped into the door.

Zhuangzi is very large, delicately arranged, enter from the gate, walk through the corridor of nine curves for a while, both sides are full of flower beds, although it is winter, there is a small flower on the withered flower stem that has not yet melted into the snow ball, and it is a different mood from a distance. Wait until the beginning of spring, turn over the soil here and sprinkle flower seeds, and then walk this corridor when the flowers are blooming, which is another scenery.

If you look a little farther away, you will find that the cloister happens to enclose a square clearing, where there is a plum tree that grows very well, which has not yet budded, but you can imagine the delicate red glow of the branches.

Xiao Yuexi couldn't help but admire: "This Zhuangzi is really suitable for living and retiring for the elderly!" Since entering this courtyard, Xiao Yuexi involuntarily relaxed, as if all disputes and mysteries had been thrown out of the door by her, what was in this Zhuangzi was just quiet and peaceful.

Feng Shuangxue chuckled lightly on the side and said, "Madam, the front should be the place where Mrs. Decree rests." ”

Speaking of Ji Bingxin, Xiao Yuexi's eyes suddenly lit up. The steps were bigger than before, and they almost trotted to the door of the room.

Before her hand touched the door, she could already hear the sound inside—her little nephew was babbling in a language that only she could understand, and Ji Bingxin was gently teasing her child......

The attendant was about to knock on the door, but Xiao Yuexi hurriedly stopped him. With such a formal communication, it will scare Ji Bingxin at a loss, so it is better for her to go in by herself.

Xiao Yuexi left Fengshuangxue and Qionglou outside, pushed open the door by herself, and walked in lightly.

Xiao Yuexi heard Xiao Yi's voice, and said very softly and with a slight smile: "Madam, the little lady is asleep, give it to the slave." You've just given birth, so it's not good to always hold your baby like this. ”

Ji Bingxin said helplessly: "What can I do?" Although this girl is small, her temper is not small, if she wants to sleep, if I don't coax her, she will keep crying, disturbing everyone's peace. ”

Xiaoyi said with a smile: "Little Miss doesn't cry on weekdays, only sleeping, no one recognizes her, only her mother." In comparison, Xiao Shizi is much easier, quiet, not noisy or noisy, and looks like a lady. ”

Ji Bingxin chuckled, just listening to it, she could feel her joy and satisfaction from the bottom of her heart.

"Huh?" Xiao Yi seemed to be suddenly alert, presumably because she found that there was an extra person in the room, and the inner room instantly became quiet.

Xiao Yuexi hurriedly showed her face, and whispered with a smile: "Xiaoyi spares my life, it's me!" ”

The two were stunned for a while before they reacted, and they all shouted: "Mrs. Xiao?!" ”

Xiao Yuexi walked to the bed, and held her down before Ji Bingxin got out of bed to prevent her from saluting: "At this time, sister-in-law should not be polite." After a pause, she explained: "Sister-in-law, I only went out of the palace to see you with the emperor's consent, don't scold me." I also heard that you were born prematurely, and I was so worried that I wanted to come to see you. ”

Ji Bingxin smiled and said softly: "The courtier's wife is slightly ill and has difficulty moving. ”

Xiao Yuexi grinned and said, "I don't care about this!" Show me my nephews. ”

Xiao Yi smiled and pointed to the two cradles next to the bed and said, "This is Xiao Shizi, this is Xiao Miss." ”

Xiao Yuexi's eyes lit up, and she sighed: "Both children are complete! I can't imagine that my brother is so blessed, sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work! ”

Ji Bingxin shook his head with a smile, and the gaze that fell on his pair of children was extremely loving. Xiao Yuexi also looked over, the two little ones were taking a nap in their respective cradles, because they were premature babies and twins, so they looked like two thin and small ones, but their faces were ruddy and they slept peacefully, plus Li Ran also said that the bodies of the two little ones were healthy among premature babies, and over time, they would definitely be able to make up for the deficiencies in the womb.

The two little guys slept soundly, Xiao Yuexi turned her attention elsewhere in order to hold back the itchy hands and not hug them, she looked at Ji Bingxin and asked softly: "Sister-in-law, what are their names?" ”

Ji Bingxin said softly: "The name naturally has to wait for the Hou Ye to decide, or...... Mrs. Xiao gives a name? ”

Mrs. Xiao didn't dare to overstep her bounds, so she hurriedly shook her head and said, "I don't have to, it's better for you husband and wife to discuss." Speaking of which, my brother should be back soon, this incident, the news that you are pregnant is really unbearable, he must also be in a hurry, I don't know what kind of expression he had when he returned to Beijing and saw his child. ”

Ji Bingxin didn't speak, just looked at her and smiled lightly. Being stared at for a while by such loving eyes, Xiao Yuexi only felt uncomfortable, and whispered with a little apprehension: "Sister-in-law, you ...... Don't look at me like that! ”

Ji Bingxin laughed out loud and asked softly, "I'm thinking, Mrs. Xiao's favored days are not short, why haven't there been any movements?" ”

Xiao Yuexi's face was "ripe", and she stumbled and said, "That, I'm ...... Oh, sister-in-law, why are you talking about this in a good way? ”

She has been in the palace for a few days, but at first Mu Yunqing was out of respect, and later she was injured and sick, Mu Yunqing obviously felt sorry for her and couldn't bear to do something excessive. After such a long time, there are a lot of records in the court, but nothing has happened to the two of them.

How do you say that? Who can believe it?

Ji Bingxin only thought she was shy, but she was really worried about her, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Madame, can you see the imperial doctor?" Some women's constitution is not easy to give birth to, but it can be regulated by medicine. The emperor is so fond of his wife, don't you want to give birth to a little prince for him? ”

Xiao Yuexi's face turned even redder.

Until she came out of the door, Xiao Yuexi's face was still very strange, and when she saw the wind, frost and snow, she couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Madam, what's wrong?" Are you not happy to see Xiao Shizi and Xiao Miss? ”

Xiao Yuexi came back to her senses and said with a dry smile: "I'm happy, of course I'm happy." Let's go, let's go, I'm going to the inn. ”

"......" Fengshuangxue looked at her inexplicably for a while before she should claim to be.

Xiao Yuexi shook off the woman's moral appearance that was filled with Ji Bing's heart, her face returned to calm, and she was ready to use what kind of attitude to face the troubled tortoiseshell prince.

Because of the large number of people in the tortoiseshell mission, the post house was rarely as lively as it is now. The guard outside the door should be Prince Tortoiseshell's attendant, and when he saw Xiao Yuexi, he took the initiative to ask, "But Mrs. Xiao?" ”

Xiao Yuexi nodded calmly. The man said, "Our Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an order that only Mrs. Xiao can be let in alone." As he spoke, his eyes fell on the wind, frost, snow and Qiong Lou behind Xiao Yuexi, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Fengshuangxue suddenly became anxious, and stepped forward to stop: "Madam, no! ”

Xiao Yuexi waved her hand indifferently and said indifferently: "It's okay, you just wait outside." ”

"Madame!"

Fengshuangxue wanted to say anything more, but Xiao Yuexi said: "There is just such a door here, Prince Tortoiseshell will not let me in and out in full view, so wait with peace of mind." ”

Feng Shuangxue gritted her teeth, and finally stood in place without saying a word, watching her wife walk alone into the post house.

But the gatekeeper said, "Madam Xiao, please wait, for the sake of His Royal Highness the Prince's safety, we need to search your body." ”

Fengshuangxue glared at him and said coldly: "Don't go too far!" ”

Xiao Yuexi stopped, looked at him meaningfully, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, have you heard of what I did before?" If I really want to hide a weapon and go in and commit murder, it will definitely not be possible for you to find it, do you believe it or not? ”

The gatekeeper blocked the door, with a posture of not letting him go without being searched.

Xiao Yuexi laughed, the disdain in her eyes was about to overflow, and she said proudly: "Okay! Mrs. Ben is not happy now, and does not want to see any tortoiseshell prince. Ah Shuang, let's go back to the palace! ”

Fengshuangxue lifted the curtain of the carriage without saying a word, Xiao Yuexi strode over, and wanted to get into the carriage without hesitation.

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded behind itself: "Mrs. Xiao stays!" ”
