Such love, such a promise between two hearts, how can she not be envious, but in the deepest part of that envy, there is a deep loss, her hand unconsciously held the high bulging abdomen, and smiled: "Enough." ”

Ning Yi couldn't help but have some admiration in his heart, he sometimes wanted to ask what He Xi had experienced, but sometimes, even if he was close to someone, he couldn't ask something.

He Xi is such a person, her body seems to be covered with a thin veil, even if she gets closer, the more she can't see clearly, but Ning Yi knows that under that layer of veil, maybe there is blood, or armor forged from the blade of a scar arrow, these are unknown to him, and now what he knows is just such a woman, which is the hope between him and Li'er.

The next day, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, and the people in the mansion were happy, and the big red lantern in his hand almost pierced He Xi's eyes were in pain.

She suddenly felt stuffy, waved her hand, and asked Ruyi to close the door, Ruyi knew that Hexi was always a little unhappy these days, and she already had an answer in her heart, but she couldn't ask, some things could only be done by letting the wound slowly scab over, and it would get better.

She took the small silver scissors in the sewing basket in her hand, and took a thick stack of red paper from the table next to her.

Cutting it carefully, after a while, I saw a cute boy pattern, appearing in her hand.

The boy was still holding a koi, she secretly glanced at He Xi, only to see that He Xi was secretly distracted, so she handed over the window paper in her hand and said with a smile: "Miss, look at whether it looks good - if you give birth to a little boy in the future, you will definitely be as cute as this little doll." ”

He Xi came back to his senses, stretched out his hand to take it, and then smiled: "I don't know yet, you still have such skills, I think we won't have a hard time in the future——"

If he saw that He Xi was interested, he joked: "Miss, you see that the weather is fine today, do you want to go out for a walk?" ”

He Xi waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, I'm very tired, and I always feel that I don't like the noise outside." ”

If you can't persuade He Xi, she is not reluctant, just smiled, and returned to He Xi's side, cutting all kinds of window flowers with scissors, she is ingenious, and the window flowers under her hands are cut quickly and well, what tuanjin peonies, and Aohan independent flowers, but He Xi is just holding the pattern of the boy she cut at the beginning.

His fingers unconsciously touched the boy's red cheeks, thinking about what his future child would look like.

Thinking about it, I couldn't stop laughing slowly, and there seemed to be a warm current in my heart, rippling slightly, like a boat floating in the middle of the river in spring, comfortable and free.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, and Ruyi got up to open the door.

There was a maid in blue clothes standing outside the door, and when she saw Ruyi and He Xi, she first saluted respectfully, and then said: "Miss, there is a reward in the palace, and the prince is already waiting in the front hall, please go too." ”

Ruyi tilted his head and said suspiciously: "The reward in the palace, didn't it mean that it would not be delivered until the dinner party in the various mansions in the evening, how could it be sent now?" ”

The maid in blue clothes also shook her head to indicate that she didn't know.

He Xi waved his hand and said: "Ruyi, the palace naturally has the meaning of the palace, serve me to change clothes." ”

The servant girl breathed a sigh of relief, and then stood aside with her hands down, waiting to be served, and Ruyi opened the box and took out the apricot-colored high-necked jacket and skirt at first sight.

He Xi just glanced at it, and then raised his voice: "Ruyi, a few days ago, what about the jacket of the golden rat that the prince gave him?" Let's wear this today. ”

Ruyi agreed, and according to He Xi's request, he took out a snow-white brocade mouse jacket skirt from the box that was put away separately on the side, shook it off, and saw that there was a slight movement of the streamer at the cuffs of the placket, which was due to the embroidered gold thread.

With the handicap at the neckline. The rubies inlaid with gold leaf are used, which are extremely luxurious, and the brocade rat is already rare, not to mention the pure white body, there is almost no trace of variegated brocade rat, just this one piece of clothing, it is priceless.

He Xi is already fair-skinned, and the cinnabar between his eyebrows corresponds to the ruby, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.

Ruyi personally tied her hair in a bun, and there was nothing else between her temples except for pressing her temples with a pair of simple pearl hairpins.

When he entered the front hall, He Xi just entered, and he heard a shallow sound of surprise around him, but He Xi didn't care, just raised his face and walked towards Ning Yi.

Ning Yi looked at her indifferently, and then looked at her dress today, and was a little funny, this smile hung on her lips, and in the eyes of outsiders, she was spoiled.

He took two steps forward and helped He Xi to the front of the hall, the eunuch who passed the decree was Gonggong Li beside the Queen Mother of the West, he was following the master, and there were not a few rare treasures that he had seen with a pair of eyes, and he could see at a glance that the brocade rat jacket skirt was unusual.

With a humble smile on his face, he said to Ning Yi: "The Queen Mother is worried that there are more officials and family members who need to be rewarded at night, and the palace people have neglected His Royal Highness the Regent, so they sent the servants out of the palace early and came to send them in person, and in addition to the rewards of Lili in previous years, the Queen Mother and His Royal Highness the County Lord have specially selected things to send over." ”

When talking about Jiang Li'er, Father-in-law Li also peeked at He Xi, as if he was figuring out something.

But He Xi just looked at his nose and stood with his nose and heart, like a vase on the table, beautiful but quiet.

His gaze lingered on He Xi's high bulging abdomen for a moment, and then he withdrew it.

Ning Yi gave his hand: "There is Father-in-law Li, and I also ask Father-in-law Li to thank the Empress Dowager and His Royal Highness the county lord for the grace of this king." ”

Gonggong Li's intuition of his face was stiff, but he couldn't see anything, so he had to say: "The slave's errand has been completed, by the way, in previous years, after the New Year's Festival, the officials and relatives will enter the palace to thank the Queen Mother for her grace, this year, His Royal Highness also has a master in the house, and the Queen Mother specially instructed the slave to convey it, so that the girl will go to the palace tomorrow to meet her." ”

When He Xi heard that this sentence was said to himself, he stepped forward politely and bent his knees slightly: "The concubine obeys the order-"

Gonggong Li looked at it again and again, and then said goodbye and left.

Ning Yi waved his hand, and the housekeeper hurriedly asked people to put the boxes of things in the warehouse according to the account books, He Xi looked at Ning Yi, and said loudly: "Slow-"

Although her voice was soft, the people around her still stopped in unison, and the housekeeper glanced at He Xi, and then stepped forward and said, "What does Miss command?" ”

He Xi said: "I heard that the county lord also sent something? Pick them out, and send the rest to the storeroom—"

The housekeeper's face was a little hesitant, he subconsciously looked at Ning Yi, only to see that Ning Yi was sitting on a chair drinking tea like a nobody, the housekeeper's eyes gurgled, and he understood the deep meaning, pointed to one of the boxes and said: "Come on, bring in the boxes sent by the county lord, and send the rest to the warehouse." ”

The people below didn't dare to disobey, and hurriedly brought in the box at the end, He Xi walked to the position next to Ning Yi and sat down, waved everyone back, and then said with a smile: "Why don't you open it and see what the county lord has sent?" ”

Ning Yi heard He Xi mention Jiang Li'er, there was a bit of doting look in his eyes, he took a sip of tea gently, and said, "She has always been carefree, and every year she gives some strange things. ”

He Xi smiled lazily and said, "Come to think of it, all those strange things in the prince's dark room were given by the county lord?" ”

Ning Yi didn't answer, but paced to the box and opened it himself, He Xi looked at it, only to see that it was actually a bow and crossbow, but it was different from ordinary bows and crossbows, the bow and crossbow had a long wooden handle, and the mechanism inside was ingenious, and it turned out to be a crossbow.

He Xi once saw one in Tuoba Yue, I heard that it was an extremely precious thing, thinking of Tuoba Yue, He Xi shook his head, just looking at Ning Yi holding that kind of thing and couldn't put it down.

At that time, Jiang Li'er was gossiping with the Empress Dowager Xi, and when she saw Gonggong Li coming in with a complicated expression, she smiled and said: "Just now I was talking to my mother, saying that Gonggong Li is coming back soon, you see, this is not to mention Cao Cao Cao." ”

A trace of worry flashed on the well-maintained face of the Empress Dowager Xi, but it was only for a moment, and then she hid it, and then said, "How?" ”

Gonggong Li was obviously a little embarrassed, looked at Jiang Li'er who was peeling kumquats, and hesitated, the Empress Dowager Xi looked at Gonggong Li's expression in her eyes, and said, "If you have anything, just say it directly, what does it look like?" ”

Gonggong Li hurriedly knelt on the ground and answered: "The slave didn't dare, the slave went to deliver something according to your will, and also saw the woman——"

Jiang Li'er peeled the kumquat hand, paused slightly, and then she put the peeled kumquat in the glass cup in the hand of the Queen Mother Xi, and said with a smile: "It turns out that the queen mother went to see the young lady——"

Seeing her look as usual, the Empress Dowager Xi couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and then said: "A woman of unknown origin casually entered the Regent's Palace, the mourning family can't sit idly by, if it is a fine work sent by another country, wouldn't it endanger my Xiliang Sheji?" ”

Jiang Li'er smiled, but she didn't answer, just looked at Gonggong Li, as if waiting for his reply.

Seeing this, Gonggong Li had no choice but to bite the bullet and say what he saw, and the more the Empress Dowager heard it, the heavier her expression became.

After Gonggong Li finished speaking, the Empress Dowager Xi slammed the teacup on the table, and said angrily: "How can this be true, a woman of unknown origin who is not clean can also enter the house, Ning Yi is still so pampered with her, that brocade rat skin is a new tribute this year, Your Majesty sympathizes with him and rewards him, he is so bad——"

Gonggong Li saw that the Empress Dowager Xi was angry, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her heart and said: "The Empress Dowager is not in a hurry, she will be rewarded by His Majesty, but how to use it, the prince still has the final say——"
