When Emperor Yong'an entered the courtyard of the Lingyan Palace, the main hall of the Lingyan Hall was already silent. However, the corridor leading to the frost pavilion in the courtyard is a palace lamp hanging high, which is obviously deliberately left.

Gonggong Feng sighed in his heart, handed the hexagonal glazed palace lamp in his hand to Emperor Yong'an's feet, and said to Emperor Yong'an, "Your Majesty, it's not early, and your concubine must be waiting for you." ”

Emperor Yong'an withdrew his gaze from the direction of the dormitory of the Lingyan Palace, raised his feet and stepped on the road that was brightly illuminated by the palace lights.

In the Frost Pavilion, An Xiaowan was sitting in front of the dresser in the dormitory, holding a peach carved pear flower wood comb in her hand to take care of her green silk like brocade.

Hanyu came in from outside, blessed An Xiaowan, and said in a low voice, "Wangui concubine Niangniang, the emperor is here......"

An Xiaowan took the hand of the wooden comb for a moment, and put the wooden comb in her hand on the vermilion dresser.

Standing up, An Xiaowan took off the thick cloak she was wearing and handed it to Hanyu, and walked out of the hall with small steps.

As soon as he walked out of the dormitory to the screen of the inner hall, Emperor Yong'an had already walked in with a cool air.

Seeing that An Xiaowan was only wearing a thin water-green bedgown, Emperor Yong'an said distressedly, "Why didn't you come out without wearing more?" ”

"When the concubine heard Hanyu say that you were coming, she ran out in a hurry." An Xiaowan lowered her head slightly, stretched out her small hand to hook Emperor Yong'an's big hand, turned around and hooked Emperor Yong'an into the dormitory.

Emperor Yong'an had a doting smile on his face and said, "Don't come out to greet me in the future, I will go to the palace to find you." ”

Hanyu put the cloak in his hand on the screen, blessed the two of them, and withdrew.

Standing still at the screen, An Xiaowan reached out and untied the forging belt on Emperor Yong'an's cloak, took off Emperor Yong'an's cloak, and put it on the screen.

Emperor Yong'an stretched out his hand to hold An Xiaowan's slightly cool little hand, and said softly, "There are fewer minions around you, wait for Ming'er to let the internal waiting bureau pick a few clever ones for you to send over." ”

An Xiaowan naughtily scratched the palm of Emperor Yong'an with her fingers, and said with a smile, "There is no shortage of slaves around the concubine, Hanyu has been waiting by Sister Ying's side for many years, and she has already topped many people by herself." Besides, the Spirit Research Hall can't accommodate so many minions, so it's already very good. ”

Emperor Yong'an's palm was tickled by An Xiaowan, he held An Xiaowan's hand hard and stopped her from moving, took her hand and walked to the bed and sat down, and said softly, "Yiyang Hall has started repairs, and it will take at least two months for you to move back." I just feel that you have wronged you by living here......"

"Concubines are not aggrieved." An Xiaowan sat beside Emperor Yong'an, lowered her head, and said softly, "It's Sister Ying who is really wronged. She is now a noble concubine, but she has to live in the same hall with others, and she is arranged by others......"

Emperor Yong'an stretched out his right hand to pick up An Xiaowan's chin, looked at An Xiaowan's sad face, and said, "Wan'er, you always think about others like this. ”

An Xiaowan sat up slightly, grabbed Emperor Yong'an's right hand in her hand, took the plate finger on his thumb, bowed her head and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine was set in the broken dormitory in the cold palace, and she was not allowed to come out when the fire was fired. It was Sister Ying who broke open the door of the palace and rescued the concubine regardless of life and death," An Xiaowan stroked the scar on the left side of her face with her left hand, and said in a desolate tone, "Because of the injury on her face, the concubine begged for death several times, but Sister Ying persuaded the concubine to persevere." Your Majesty, the concubines didn't even want to see the sunshine at that time, so they hid in a dilapidated house, if it wasn't for Sister Ying, how could the concubines see you......"

Emperor Yong'an hugged An Xiaowan into his arms and said in a low voice, "Wan'er, you have suffered. ”

"It's Sister Ying who suffers...... tears fell from An Xiaowan's eyes, and she cried, "The concubine has never told the emperor about the cold palace, but the emperor knows that the cold palace is really cold......"

"So many palaces in the cold palace are all dilapidated, and the ruins and broken walls are overgrown with weeds that are more than one person high, and when the wind blows at night, it makes a rustling sound, and it is as scary as it can be. The moment the concubine walked into the cold palace, she felt that she had been beaten into the eighteenth layer of hell and could no longer get out. In the cold palace, a person only has three taels of brown rice a day, and the water has to be carried to the palace gate of the cold palace with a bucket...... Wan'er was bent on dying at that time, hiding in a dilapidated house all day long, and she didn't have the rations of three taels of brown rice for a long time. Sister Ying and Lotus Ye saved their rations for the concubines to eat, and at that time, Sister Ying had just lost the princess, and broke her arm during the fire, and she couldn't walk steadily......"

Before she finished speaking, An Xiaowan was already lying in the arms of Emperor Yong'an and cried bitterly, "Yilang, without Sister Ying, there would be no Wan'er ......"

Emperor Yong'an hugged An Xiaowan tightly in his arms, and his heart was blocked by An Xiaowan's words. He has always known the suffering in the cold palace, but no one has ever said it to him so sincerely. Now that the woman he loves the most tells him about the suffering she has suffered in the cold palace, Emperor Yong'an's heart feels more and more guilty for beating An Xiaowan into the cold palace.

An Xiaowan cried for a while, sat up straight from Emperor Yong'an's arms, and sobbed again, "Later, Sister Ying came out of the cold palace and asked the concubine to come out with her." The concubine didn't follow, so she dredged the lady in charge of the cold palace and asked the lady in charge to take more care of the concubine. In the winter of the year, the weather was getting colder and colder, and Sister Ying was afraid that the concubine would freeze, so she took the concubine to the Lingyan Palace...... Yi Lang," An Xiaowan stared straight at Emperor Yong'an with red and swollen eyes that were crying, and choked up, "Sister Ying said that as the king of a country, you have too many last resorts, and even beating Wan'er into the cold palace is a last resort. Wan'er is just a little woman, she doesn't understand the affairs of the court or the big truth, but Wan'er knows who is really good to Wan'er and who is really good to the emperor. Sister Ying took more care of Feiduo who had harmed her many times in the cold palace, and after leaving the cold palace, she raised the five princesses of the Zhu family with her heart, Wan'er only begged Yilang not to say that Sister Ying's was not good in front of Wan'er, and Wan'er felt uncomfortable when she heard it......"

Emperor Yong'an nodded, raised his hand to wipe the tears on An Xiaowan's face, and said solemnly, "I swear to you, I won't say it, I won't say it again......"

"Not only don't you say it in front of Wan'er, but you can't say it in front of others."

"Well, don't say it in front of others."

"No, no." An Xiaowan seemed to be anxious about her stupidity, and tears fell like beads with broken threads, "You are not allowed to think about it in your heart." Don't think in your heart that Sister Ying is not good. ”

Emperor Yong'an raised his hand to wipe An Xiaowan's tears, and said softly, "Wan'er, you will always be so simple and kind......

"Sister Ying also said that Wan'er is simple and kind," An Xiaowan looked at Emperor Yong'an and choked up, "But Sister Ying said that Wan'er is simple and cute, and Sister Ying said that Wan'er is good as long as she is happy, and she protects Wan'er ......"

"Your sister Ying really spoiled you......"

An Xiaowan buried her head in Emperor Yong'an's chest and said coquettishly, "Not only Sister Ying wants to spoil Wan'er, but Yilang also spoils Wan'er." No, no, Yilang wants to spoil Sister Ying and Wan'er, Sister Ying has been so wronged, Yilang wants to spoil her like Wan'er, no, no, it's a little less than Wan'er. Wan'er is a little woman, and a little woman will be jealous. Sister Ying is so generous, she won't worry about Wan'er...... Oh, you are not allowed to laugh, you are not allowed to laugh......"

But Emperor Yong'an was already laughing out loud.

Holding the lovely little woman in his arms tightly, Emperor Yong'an's heart drifted to the stubborn woman in the front hall, who was only Ye Lingxi and not Ye Ziluo.

The spirit rhino in the Spirit Research Hall was thrilled in his sleep, and subconsciously curled himself up into a ball in the quilt. The palace lamp shone on Lingxi's body through the red silk tent, reflecting her entire dream turning blood red.

At three o'clock on March 29, the ninth year of Yong'an, Yu Guifei, who lived in the Ruyi Hall of Qingle Palace, saw blood under the noble concubine, and there were signs of childbirth.

When the news reached the Lingyan Palace, Lingxi was just about to go to bed, and his hair bun had already been put down. After listening to Xiao Dezi's reply, Lingxi couldn't help but put his hair back on, put on a light pink cloak and hurried to the Ruyi Palace.

Yongle Palace is not the closest to Qingle Palace, but Lingxi is the first to go to the Ruyi Palace.

The lights in the Ruyi Hall are bright, and the palace ladies and grandmothers keep going in and out. Imperial Physician Liu, who takes care of Yu Guifei on weekdays, has already knelt at the door of the dormitory, and is talking back and forth with Wen Po, who is delivering the baby to Yu Guifei inside.

When the palace people saw Lingxi running in anxiously, they stopped slightly and blessed Lingxi, and then went back to their errands.

After sitting firmly on the low kang, Lingxi General stood on one side and commanded the palace maids to go in and out, and Yizhi, who was pale and had a hint of horror in his eyes, called over.

Before Lingxi could ask, Yizhi was already blessed and said, "Don't worry about Ye Guifei Niangniang, Wen Po said that my mother's condition is very good, and the amount of bleeding is not large." ”

Lingxi nodded when he heard this, and half of his heart that was hanging to his throat was lowered, and he raised his hand to let Yizhi get busy.

After a while, Yizhi presented a hot tea cup again, and said to Lingxi, "Ye Guifei Niangniang, the palace is cold, you drink tea to warm your body." ”

"You don't have to worry about this palace," Lingxi took the tea cup and said to Yizhi, "You go and get busy, as long as your mother is safe, this palace is sweeter than anything you eat." ”

Yizhi nodded again and again, blessed and stood at the door of the dormitory.

Lingxi wanted to take a sip of the tea cup in his hand to stabilize his mind, but the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the dark amber tea soup was similar to the light red blood water that the palace maid brought in and out. In the end, he only put the tea cup on the table, and he was in a hurry.

After about half a cup of tea, Yi Gui Concubine and Ling Concubine, who were also in the East Sixth Palace, arrived at the Ruyi Hall before and after. Seeing Lingxi, the two stepped forward to say goodbye, and then sat on the low table next to the low kang and waited.

When it was almost time, Emperor Yong'an walked in with the cool air of a spring night.

Lingxi hurriedly stood up and took several concubines in the palace to ask Emperor Yong'an for peace.

After Emperor Yong'an sat down on the dwarf kang, he glanced at the concubines in the palace and asked Lingxi, "Concubine Rou hasn't arrived yet?" ”

Lingxi shook his head and said, "The East Sixth Palace is far away from the West Sixth Palace, so there may be a delay on the way." ”

"Well," Emperor Yong'an waved his hand to a few people, "don't stand still, sit down." ”

Lingxi bent his knee to Emperor Yong'an, gave Lotus Ye a look, and asked Lotus Leaf to move a few for him. But Emperor Yong'an reached out and took Lingxi's hand into his hand, led Lingxi to sit beside him, and said softly, "Come out in a hurry, it's just a matter of untied hair, why don't you even wear an extra piece of clothing?" ”

Yigui's beautiful eyes swept twice on Emperor Yong'an and Lingxi's bodies, then stood up and blessed Emperor Yong'an, and said with a light smile, "Your Majesty, it's better to let the concubine help Concubine Ye pull her hair in a bun." ”
