When Xia Qingyu was waiting for Red Sleeves to come back from Concubine Li, she had been staying under the flower tree where the beauty picture was buried, and she asked people to move the bamboo chair in the house and put it under the flower tree, and then lay down in the bamboo chair and began to pretend to sleep. Half-asleep and half-awake, she seemed to see a woman in white slowly walking towards her from the hazy place of smoke and rain, slender and weak, and her beautiful eyes were dripping blood with sadness.

Xia Qingyu watched her walk in front of her, stretched out her hand to grab her, but she pounced, looked down at her empty hand in a daze, and raised her head and shouted at her: "Mother, you don't want Yu'er, Yu'er is here." But let her cry hoarsely and burst into tears, but the woman in white just walked forward as if she hadn't heard it.

"Mother...... Mother...... Mother, don't go, don't leave Yu'er, Yu'er is scared alone, scared ......" When Xia Qingyu woke up from crying in a dream, she found that it was just a dream, and she couldn't help but feel more and more sad and tears rolled down.

Xia Qingyu remembered that her mother said: "Yu'er, even though your father has lost me, I don't regret it, and I don't hate him, it's just that I know that people can have so many regrets and so much helplessness in this life after knowing him."

Xia Qingyu wiped the tears on her face fiercely: No, I hate, I hate him very much. I don't hate my mother's kindness, but I hate. In her opinion, her mother's love is too worthless, she was already in love with her bone marrow but was abandoned and betrayed by her loved one so cheaply, Xia Qingyu gritted her teeth and couldn't wait to stab him a few times to relieve the hatred in her heart.

When Red Sleeves came back, he told Xia Qingyu how he met Concubine Li in the garden, but he was sent back halfway, and he couldn't hear the rest of the words.

It turned out that Concubine Li didn't see anyone when she went to visit Master Xia, and when she heard that she went to the garden to enjoy the flowers, she remembered his body and took someone all the way to find him.

Master Xia was indeed admiring the newly bloomed peony flowers in the pavilion in the courtyard, and when he saw Concubine Li coming, he wanted to salute, but was suppressed by Concubine Li: "Dad, I'm not Concubine Li now, just your daughter, you can sit still."

"Lan'er, now that the Xia family is only left with you and Zheng Hao, your fourth sister and me have been suffering from you these days. It's hard for you to still be the honor of Concubine Li. ”

Xia Yulan saw that his father was talking a little heavy, so she couldn't help but hold his hand and comforted: "Dad, no matter how you say it, I am also your daughter and the Xia family, we share weal and woe, you have to get better, you can't do without the Xia family." Master Xia stopped talking.

Xia Yulan continued: "You don't have to worry about Ning Xiaowangye's side, since the fourth sister's birthday has been sent, this marriage will be engaged, but the other side agreed, and she will pass through the door when she arrives."

Old Man Xia sighed and said sadly: "It's all fate." It was Yun'er's bad life that she met the lascivious and arrogant Ning Xiaowang in the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongshun, and she was forced to settle this family business, causing her to commit suicide by jumping into the Yulan River a month before she got married. ”

"Dad, Yun'er's matter, it's still my incompetence, and I can't speak in the palace and can't help." Xia Yulan bowed her head and said.

"It's not your fault, you are a concubine, she is the queen, how can you offend her." Xia Yulan pondered for a while, retreated from everyone who was waiting around, and saw that there was no one around: "Dad, why can't the Xia family have a queen."

"Lan'er, ...... you" Master Xia looked at Xia Yulan's firm and sharp eyes in disbelief, thinking that she was not what she is now, and said that the harem battle was extremely terrifying, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said for a while: "But you only have one princess, the battle in the harem is as deep as a quagmire, and if you make a mistake, you will lose everything, and even the Xia family will be implicated at that time."

"Dad, even if I don't fight, someone will kill me, and the assassin of the Lantern Festival is sent by Concubine Mei, the biological mother of the Eleventh Prince, and she is determined to get rid of me." Then he gritted his teeth and said, "She hasn't settled the account of harming my prince, but she dares to provoke me again." Dad, I'm going back to the palace in a few days, you don't have to worry about the fourth sister, I've promised to take her back to Beijing, and I can change a lot of things in three years. ”

"Lan'er, what do you want to do, don't mess around. The fourth sister's affairs are all to blame for your mother's foolish things. ”

"Dad, it's no wonder that my mother, she only had to agree to let the fourth sister marry in order to protect the Xia family's eagerness to appease the anger of Ning Xiaowangye, but at least she has won three years, isn't it?"

"Alas...... In this way, it depends on Qi'er's creation. Suddenly remembered that Xia Qingyu was coming: "Do you really want to bring that child back to the palace when you leave that child in the mansion?"

"Yes."

"Why?" Old Man Xia said curiously.

"The days in the palace are long, Jing'er is afraid of me, and I don't have a son, I like that child very much, so I want to stay by my side and send an envoy to chat, otherwise it will be boring."

"It's hard for you." Master Xia held Xia Yulan's hand and said sincerely.

"That kid, it's cute." It just so happens that he has just sent someone to come and see you, and if you like it, you can call him now. "That's it." Master Xia waved his hand: "Tomorrow, I'm tired now, let's go back and rest early."

Hearing this, Concubine Li retreated, but before leaving, Concubine Li said: "If it weren't for my father, this peony flower would have been cleared a long time ago."

Master Xia didn't say anything, but his face darkened.

The next day, Master Xia sent someone to ask Xia Qingyu to say that the peony flowers in the garden were blooming just right, and asked Ye Gongzi to watch it together. Xia Qingyu found a reason, opened his red sleeves, and came to meet Master Xia alone.

When Xia Qingyu arrived at the pavilion, Master Xia was holding a chess piece in one hand and was looking at the patches of peony flowers outside the pavilion. "Master Xia." Xia Qingyu shouted at him.

"Oh, you're here." Master Xia came back to his senses and let her sit opposite. "You sent someone yesterday to say that you wanted to visit me, but it was fake." Master Xia bluntly said what he thought.

Xia Qingyu glanced at him, looked down at the chess pieces, and landed a piece on the chessboard and smiled happily: "Master Xia is too careful." "Oh?" Old Man Xia looked at her suspiciously.

Xia Qingyu continued: "I bumped into the master that day, and I ask for forgiveness." The words were well-behaved, but from the bright smile on her face, Master Lixia couldn't tell that she had the sincerity to apologize.

Master Xia also gave a son, and said for a while: "In this case, how about we make a New Year's friend?" Xia Qingyu was stunned for a moment, and her heart twitched a little too much: "Forgetful friends? Old Man Xia is highly respected and has a noble status, and the small ones may not be able to climb high. ”

"Huh...... You seem to hate me. Master Xia said with a smile. Xia Qingyu smiled mischievously and said very facelessly: "It's not that it's annoying." Russia's eyes instantly became cold, and his tone was extremely cold, "It's very annoying." ”

Master Xia seemed to be frightened, looking at her somewhat frozen eyes, piercing into his heart like a knife.

"Who are you?" It was only at this moment that Master Xia realized that this child was not simple, she was not as innocent and cute as she seemed.

Xia Qingyu smiled lightly and did not answer, only turned his head to look at the peony flower outside the pavilion and said, "This flower is blooming well, and it is in full swing." Master Xia seems to like this peony flower very much. ”
