By the time the emperor and the old master of Ouyang and others came, the empress dowager had already fallen into a light sleep.

I looked at the Empress Dowager lying on the floor with her eyes closed, her head on her knees in the middle of the night, and her face peaceful.

Looking at the only right hand that could move was already white, and the whole body was as thin as no flesh, and a luxurious Xuanzi King costume was worn on his body like a child wearing adult clothes in the middle of the night, a trace of self-blame and distress flashed on the emperor's old face.

Although it was fleeting, he was still caught by Helian Jiamin.

The face that had been smiling almost broke the work, and it took the last reason to maintain the gentleness on his face.

Why?

Why is he a wild seed without a father and a mother, a cowardly and useless thing, not only is he favored by his ancestors, but even his father and emperor regard him as a son, not to mention the Nine Emperor Uncles!

These real princes and princesses are in their hearts, as if they are outsiders.

The emperor didn't even get to the door, and he already knew it at midnight.

But he was a virtuous king who was so poor that he would die at any moment, and he was useless, how could he know that they were coming from afar?

So Midnight was unmoved, still rubbing her head for the Queen Mother, looking like she didn't know that someone in the palace was coming.

The emperor is a well-known filial grandson, and the empress dowager has always had a headache, often so painful that she can't sleep all night long. Especially in a cold winter like now, with cold hands and feet, pain in limbs, and headache and wind pain, the Empress Dowager spends almost every day in pain.

This is a piece of the emperor's heart.

It was rare to see that the Empress Dowager was sleeping so peacefully now, he looked at Midnight gratefully, waved his hand back, signaled everyone to be quiet, and sat down under the main seat with his footsteps down, waiting for the Empress Dowager to sleep and wake up naturally.

The emperor is like this, not to mention the old family master Ouyang and Helian Xinyi who followed the emperor?

He didn't even dare to enter the hall and stood silently at the door of the hall, but the old master of Ouyang didn't have a good look on his face, and he stared at the ground with his head down gloomily.

But Helian Xinyi looked at Midnight's back with an appreciative face, which was a bit useful, at least to appease the old ancestor, not only to get the protection of the old ancestor, but even the father and emperor would protect him, and he would not be bullied to death.

The Empress Dowager slept comfortably this night, she had not slept peacefully without pain in her whole body for a long time. It's just that after a bitter midnight, the Empress Dowager fell asleep, and his hands never stopped.

Fortunately, the Empress Dowager was worried about something, and she didn't sleep for too long, waking up in half an hour, otherwise his poor right paw would probably be useless.

As soon as she woke up, the Empress Dowager felt that her little hands were still rubbing on her head, and she was immediately distressed. Before his eyes opened, he had already raised his hand and grabbed Midnight's hand, and said with trembling voices: "Little Nineteen, you stupid child, you should stop when the ancestor sleeps, why are you still rubbing?" ”

Midnight backhanded the Empress Dowager's wrinkled hand, very hard.

"I haven't seen my ancestor for many years in the middle of the night, and my body was too bad to be filial in front of my ancestor, which is something that should not be done in death. But the ancestors don't give up, and they still treat Midnight as their own great-grandson, if you don't let Midnight do your filial piety, isn't this going to smoke Midnight's bones? ”

He really hadn't seen the Empress Dowager for many years, he was taken away by the Nine Emperor Uncles, and then he returned to the Xianwang Mansion for seven years.

In addition to the initial healing and detoxification, even if he returned to the Xianwang Mansion later, for some other reasons, he could hear the secret report of the Empress Dowager almost every day, but he never entered the palace to see.

If you think about it, he is indeed ashamed of this old man who really loves him.

Thinking of the three years she had been lying in bed in the palace, no matter whether it was hot or cold, she would accompany him by the bedside for an hour or two every day, often crying sadly when he was poisoned, often holding his body in pain that he couldn't sleep, patting his back with that old but powerful hand to coax him to sleep.

Thinking about it, midnight was no longer a play, and tears fell on the forehead of the Queen Mother.

He immediately pulled out his right hand and vigorously wiped the tears from his eyes.

His sadness was felt by the Empress Dowager, and at the same time, the Emperor who had been sitting silently over there also felt it.

sighed almost in unison, while pleasing the child's sensibility, he felt even more sorry for his excessive understanding.

The emperor's sigh attracted the attention of the queen mother, and when she turned her head to see the emperor sitting there, she immediately sat up angrily, but the age was there, the queen mother was so excited, and she fell backwards before she could sit firmly, and she hurriedly went to help her in the middle of the night.

But she only has her right hand to move, and she has just rubbed her head for the Queen Mother for so long, and her right hand is already 'weak', how can she help the Queen Mother?

Fortunately, the emperor reacted quickly and dodged over to help her before the empress dowager was under heavy pressure until midnight.

"Ancestor, you can just call your grandson, you are so excited, Xiao Nineteen's body and bones are already poor, if you press him, it is still you who is distressed." The emperor said half-jokingly.

But he believes that if he really presses the little nineteen, the old ancestor will be distressed for a long time. At that time, he will be the one who will be uncomfortable, and he will be trained!

In the middle of the night, he didn't dare to raise his head, so he quickly moved away and stood up, and took a few steps back to stand aside.

His action made the Empress Dowager more and more angry with the emperor, and immediately glared at the emperor and shouted: "Look at it, look at it, what did you scare Xiao Nineteen into?" ”

Then he moved towards midnight, changing his anger towards the emperor, but with a loving face, "Little Nineteen, come here, sit beside the mourning family." ”

Midnight waved his right hand again and again, and stepped back a little further, even farther away from the seat, "The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and Midnight is not qualified to stand by the emperor's side." ”

Humility, cowardice, and timidity are vividly expressed by him.

The Empress Dowager glared at the emperor again, glaring at the emperor's face full of helplessness, and at the same time helplessness for Midnight, "You are like my child, when you see me, you see your father, what's so terrible?" Your surname is Helian, and you are the descendant of Helian's family.

Come here, come to my father's side, and let my father see it.

My father hasn't seen you for seven or eight years. ”

What he was waiting for at midnight was his words, although he never cared what his identity was, but who made those people think about how to put people into the Xianwang Mansion all day long, and even now they want him to be a father.

He didn't mean to fight back, how could he be worthy of those people's love?

Sensing that Helian Jiamin and the old man Ouyang at the door were breathing out of control at the moment, he was in a good mood at midnight, but he still looked timid, he wanted to get close but didn't dare, he looked at the emperor with admiration, and walked to the queen mother and sat down without moving his eyes, three meters away from the emperor.

It's a distance, showing that he cares about the other person, but he doesn't intrude into the other person's security area.
