Before Fuqing could react, Tuoba Yue was already gone, he quickly got up and chased out.

When he arrived at Cuishan, Tuoba Yue had already returned to Jinse Pavilion, Jinbao looked at Fuqing in confusion and asked, "Father-in-law didn't go to look for His Majesty, why did he come back now?" ”

Fuqing's face turned red, and he finally took a breath, and when he heard Jinbao say this, he raised his hand and hit Jinbao's head, scolding: "Little cub with no conscience, don't hurry up and help me go back to rest!" ”

Jin Bao stuck out his tongue, and hurriedly helped Fuqing to go back, and saw several little eunuchs happily coming out of Jinse Pavilion, Fuqing said puzzledly: "What's wrong with these people?" ”

Jinbao hurriedly explained: "I got the reward, just now Your Majesty came back, I saw them in the Jinse Pavilion sprinkled and swept, and smoked incense, I don't know why Your Majesty is so happy, everyone rewarded silver, can you not be happy." ”

Fuqing's heart became more and more puzzled, he pondered for a long time and asked, "Do you know what kind of incense is smoked?" ”

Jin Bao scratched his head and said: "This slave doesn't know, it seems to be a particularly light incense, at first the slave wondered, how did these people find such incense to smoke, but now that I think about it, it is really right for His Majesty's taste." ”

Fuqing already had some guesses in his heart, he turned around and went towards Dongyuan, Jinbao didn't know what he was going to do, so he asked, "Alas, father-in-law, what are you going to do?" ”

Fuqing said: "Naturally, there is something important, you can go back." ”

He went all the way to the East Garden, asked where he lived, and went straight to it.

Hearing that Fuqing had arrived, Shu Miao and Chun Tao were very anxious to look at each other, thinking that each other had no confidence in their hearts, and when they were hesitating, Fuqing entered the inner hall, blessed the body, and said happily: "The slave is here to give the little master good news, the slave told His Majesty about the little master, after His Majesty returns to the palace, he will ask the imperial doctor to take care of the little master's body, and when the child is born, it can be passed on to His Majesty's name——"

Shu Miao and Chun Tao didn't even react for a while, the meaning of Fuqing's words, Fuqing called twice helplessly, and Shu Miao suddenly came back to his senses and said: "Oh, I'm sorry, Fu Gonggong, I didn't hear clearly, Your Majesty is talking about this child--passive-is-"

Fuqing already knew what Tuoba Yue meant, so he also said directly: "Little master, this child may have a bright future, but it is not certain, can you think about it?" ”

Chun Tao's face was full of joy, and suddenly she seemed to remember something, and said eagerly: "Then can our little master - can we go back to the palace?" ”

The smile on Fuqing's face faded slightly, and he became a little embarrassed, but he suddenly understood that Tuoba Yue didn't want her to have anything to do with this child, after all, she was Tuoba Chen's concubine, and this child, if she wanted to succeed to Tuoba Yue's name, her identity would be very embarrassing, Fuqing just said that this child has a bright future, so she can't have a mother with such an identity.

This matter suddenly changed, she leaned towards the soft pillow behind her a little dejectedly, Fuqing was also a little unbearable in his heart, but he still said bitterly: "Little master, you know that this is the best." ”

Saying that, he shook his head and sighed: "The slave is waiting outside for the little master's reply, Your Majesty will leave for the palace tomorrow, the little master-"

He wanted to speak again and again, but finally he couldn't bear to persecute Shu Miao, and turned around and went out.

Shu Miao sat on the chair in a daze, but the tears in Chun Tao's eyes couldn't help falling anymore, and she choked up: "Little master, how did things turn out like this, this child, this child is your hope for the rest of your life, if you are sent to the palace, wouldn't it be- wouldn't we never see each other in our lifetime?" ”

But it was as if she had lost her soul, but she lowered her eyes and didn't speak, and her palms held her bulging abdomen again and again.

Chun Tao was frightened, she suddenly got up and walked outside: "Little master, you say something, otherwise, or - the slave maid went to ask Your Majesty, Your Majesty governs the world with benevolence and righteousness, there is no reason to force us to make a choice, he will definitely listen to the slave maid's request." ”

With that, she got up and walked outside, but after only taking two steps, she heard Shu Miao say in a deep voice: "Chun Tao, don't go." ”

Chun Tao's body was quite straight, but she still stopped, and sighed slightly, wanting to hook the corners of her lips, but finally gave up, her eyes fell silent, and she said word by word: "I decided, send this child into the palace, he will follow us for the rest of his life." ”

Chun Tao's body couldn't stop shaking, and she dissuaded: "But, sent to the palace, between the mother and son—"

Shu Miao still made up her mind, she reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said: "This child, what remains is the blood of the Tuoba clan, if he is really trapped in this place with us, it will really hurt him, I once thought about it, I want him to come to this world to see, now he has the opportunity to see higher and farther, as a mother, I should support it." ”

Chun Tao's eyes were full of distress, she whispered to the little master, and then fell to the ground and cried.

Tears fell down her eyes, she slowly clenched her fists, and said to herself word by word: "This is a good thing - this is a good thing - "

About half an hour, the door behind Fuqing creaked open from both sides, and Shu Miao stood in front of the door with red and swollen eyes, she and Chun Tao had already changed into two rather formal palace clothes, but they were indeed dark green, not bright, like an abandoned woman.

Shu Miao nodded towards Fuqing and said, "Father-in-law, can you take me to meet Your Majesty?" ”

Fuqing originally planned to do so, so he passed on his shoulders and went to Jinse Pavilion with Shumiao, Tuoba Yue was playing with something in the hall, and when he saw Fuqing coming in with Shumiao, he carefully tightened the thing in a brocade box of gold velvet cloth at the corner of the table.

He didn't shy away from the two, so Fuqing and Shu Miao both saw that thing, it was a piece of wood carving, Shu Miao just felt that this wood carving was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, but Fuqing recognized it at a glance, although there was only a small piece of wood carving, but it was clearly carved with Luanwei.

He once saw a touch of the same relief in a place, it was a long time ago, it was still the emperor's fourth prince rewarded to the little master of He Xi on the luanwei qin, and later in the paulownia wood of the luanwei qin was damaged, the medicine bowl was found, and the qin was sent by His Majesty to the Internal Affairs Office for repair.

After that, Fuqing never saw the luanwei qin again, and now, the relief that is exactly the same as that qin actually appeared here, can not be said to be strange.

He suddenly thought of Tuoba Yue's abnormality today, could it be because of this thing? But what does just a small relief say? Just as he was out of his mind, he heard a faint and faint voice: "The concubine has a few words that I want to say to Your Majesty alone, I don't know if Your Majesty can agree." ”

Tuoba Yue was obviously in a good mood, so he waved his hand, and Chun Tao looked at Shu Miao with some concern, and had no choice but to lean over and retreat. Fuqing also left very interestingly.

In the hall, for a while, only Shu Miao and Tuoba Yue were left.

Since she became pregnant, the smell of incense affected the child in her womb, so she no longer needed any incense, so as soon as she entered the temple, she smelled the incense burning in the temple, and it was still a very elegant aroma.

She smiled: "The smell of this incense is so familiar, it seems to be commonly used by the lady in the original palace." ”

Tuoba Yue didn't say anything, but said lightly: "Don't you have something to say to me, is it true that Mrs. Miao is here to discuss incense with me?" ”

Shu Miao suddenly thought of something, her face changed slightly, she looked around, and suddenly smiled: "I see, no wonder Miss Xiao was so hostile to Concubine Xi back then." ”

Tuoba Yue frowned, and he said impatiently: "What do you want to say?" ”

Shu Miao said with some embarrassment: "The sisters in the palace back then, the dead and the wounded, I am the only one left, Your Majesty, the concubine came this time to thank you, after all, you can accommodate this child, for me, it is a great gift." ”

Tuoba Yue's beautiful eyebrows gradually curled up, and his fingers tapped on the table again and again, obviously waiting for the next words.

The two looked at each other, and Shu Miao couldn't help but tremble, only feeling that her calculations and calculations had been perceived, and she couldn't help but be in chaos, but she pinched her palms tightly with her fingernails, forcing herself to calm down, she had to gamble, even if it was for the sake of that little hope in the future.

She turned her face away from Tuoba Yue, but looked at the usual furnishings in the Jinse Pavilion, and even the style of the bed curtains and screens was not changed, so she became more and more determined: "Your Majesty, back then, Concubine Hui arranged for me to enter the palace, in order to compete for favor, during this period, the concubine knew a lot of things-doesn't Your Majesty want to know?" ”

Tuoba Yue looked at Shu Miao quietly, and said straight to the point: "Oh? How do you know that I must want to know? ”

Shu Miao only felt that the pressure almost made her unable to breathe, she unconsciously took half a step back, and endured the discomfort and said: "Your Majesty likes this incense, I used to smell it in Concubine Xi's palace, and this Jinse Pavilion, if I remember correctly, is also the place where Concubine Xi once lived, and the furnishings here can still be seen to be arranged according to the woman's preferences, Your Majesty does not live in the East Garden, but he chose Jinse Pavilion, even the incense burned is what Concubine Xi once liked, is it just a coincidence?" ”

She said a lot in one breath, but the most important guess she hadn't said yet, on the way here, Chun Tao asked her, this Tuoba Yue has just ascended the throne, and there is also a concubine An in the palace, why do you want to step her child, although this child is Tuoba clan's bloodline is good, but in the final analysis, he is still Tuoba Chen's child, the first emperor has already had an edict, if Tuoba Yue can't bear it, you can give this child an idle prince, why bother?

Of course, this question is also what she wants to ask, but now, she has figured it out a little.
