Aunt Ruizhi walked out from the inside and said with a smile: "The concubine Niangniang was a little dizzy when she got up, and someone went to the Tai Hospital to invite Doctor Lu to come and see, it really happened that Concubine An knew about it, Concubine An remembered the phoenix body of the concubine Niangniang, so she came to see, Concubine Niangniang, since she came, let's have dinner here today." ”

Tuoba Yue didn't look at Xiao Nai, and walked straight inside, asking as he walked, "What's the matter?" The weather has been changeable recently, but is it cold? ”

Concubine De's voice was peaceful in love, and she said with a smile: "This person is old, and his body is always not as good as usual. It's all right—"

Tuoba Yue respects Concubine De very much, after all, in this palace, the only person who did not fall into the well for Concubine Xiao Guifei back then was Concubine De, he personally helped Concubine De to get down from the soft collapse, his voice was soft, and he said with concern: "The weather is also a little changeable these days, Aunt Ruizhi should tell the people below to be careful, if you need anything, go to the Internal Affairs Office to get it." ”

Concubine De patted Tuoba Yue's hand, looking at the face that was somewhat similar to Xiao Yan'er, and couldn't help but feel a little more pity in her heart.

She said: "Your Majesty is busy with state affairs, although it is important, but you must also pay attention to the dragon body." Mourner, I see that you have been a little less liquidated lately. ”

Tuoba Yue said: "Let the concubine worry about you, but when I first ascended the throne, there are still many things that I need to deal with." ”

Xiao Nai hurriedly said: "Although state affairs are important, Your Majesty's body is equally important, Your Majesty's body is related to the country's society-Your Majesty-"

She unconsciously approached Tuoba Yue, who knew that her fingers only touched Tuoba Yue's sleeve, and she was quietly avoided by Tuoba Yue, he didn't look at Xiao Nai at all, just looked at Concubine De and said, "Let's have dinner, later I still need to discuss the imperial examination with the servant of the ministry——"

Concubine De glanced at Xiao Nai without a trace, and saw the frustration on her face really, she sighed silently in her heart, and said to Rui Zhi indifferently: "Okay, go and tell the kitchen to serve food." ”

Throughout the dinner, except for the occasional concern of the concubine, it was quiet as if no one was there.

Xiao Nai didn't know what the look on her face was, but she guessed that she was smiling, the rice she gave her mouth was clearly soft and delicious, but she tasted like chewing wax.

In the end, she didn't come back to her senses until Tuoba Yue got up to say goodbye, but what she saw was only Tuoba Yue's figure.

Her tears could no longer be held back, and they fell on the table, and there were patches of water stains.

Concubine De didn't know much about the entanglement she had only seen with Tuoba Yue, she just thought that she was a poor woman who didn't have a sacred heart, a little scheming, a little means, but no matter how scheming and means, she couldn't be favored, what was the use?

She also lost the mind of eating, put the silver in her hand, gently put it on the table, and sighed: "Concubine An, it's not that the mourning family doesn't help you, today you also saw Your Majesty's attitude, although the mourning family hopes that the royal family will continue, but there are some things that are not something that a concubine of the mourning family can restrict, do you understand?" ”

Xiao Nai felt that all her strength seemed to hit a ball of cotton, for so long, she tried her best to please Concubine De, and finally had such an opportunity, but in the end it was to no avail, how could she be willing, when she came out of Shoukang Palace, the full moon was already hanging high.

The round moon is in the sky, but it is lonely, without the stars to accompany it.

A palace maid stepped forward to hold the lamp for Xiao Nai, and then said heartily: "The night is dark, the mother's heart." ”

Xiao Nai glanced at the palace maid who was born, let out a cold snort in his snort, and then said, "What about the tortoiseshell?" ”

The palace maid said respectfully: "Aunt tortoiseshell has something to do temporarily, and she will come back soon, let the slave maid guard here to prevent no one from serving the mother-"

As she looked, she saw the tortoiseshell hurriedly coming out of the rockery on the side, her face was slightly red, and she didn't know whether she was in a hurry or how.

Before approaching, the tortoiseshell knelt down respectfully and said, "The slave and maid are not well served, and please forgive me." ”

Xiao Nai looked at the tortoiseshell left hand tightly clutching an object, which only exposed a thin tip, an earring.

The tortoiseshell's head drooped lower and lower, and the dim halo of the palace lamp hit his face, which was a little different and moving.

Xiao Nai's heart suddenly swelled with anger, and she tried her best to hold herself and said: "I'm tired of this palace, go back to the palace." ”

The tortoiseshell breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly got up to help Xiao Nai back to the palace, the palace maid was very eye-catching in front of the lantern, every step was silent, the master and servant were quiet for a long time, and then they heard the tortoiseshell say: "Today, Wang Lang came to see the slave maid, and the slave and maid inadvertently inquired, tomorrow, Lord Zhao is going to Xizhou, it is a problem with the mutual market with Xiliang, and someone needs to solve it, and he also asked His Majesty for an order, but His Majesty still let Lord Zhao go." ”

Xiao Nai nodded, as if he remembered something, and said to the tortoiseshell: "Wang Lang treats you very well now, you have to do things well, and when the time comes, the palace will naturally reward you well——"

The tortoiseshell didn't dare to do anything, so she had to nod her head and say yes, and then leaned closer and said: "This matter, do you need to pass through the old man and Xiao Gongzi, after all, there are not many people who can use it in the court now, plus Niangniang, you are in the harem——"

She paused suddenly, her face was a little pale, she thought that Xiao Nai would not be favored in the harem and would not be of much help, but thinking of Xiao Nai's temperament on weekdays, she swallowed these words hard.

Xiao Nai was a little distracted, today's incident did hit her too hard, she hummed softly, and then said weakly: "Is it only Zhao Yancheng?" ”

The tortoiseshell thought carefully about what he said to Wang Lang today, and then said, "Your Majesty has taken a picture of an entourage, whose name is Yuxue." ”

Xiao Nai frowned and muttered, "Yuxue, how can you be so familiar?" ”

The tortoiseshell smiled: "Niangniang is afraid that the nobles will forget things, and this rain and snow is not the guard guarding His Majesty's side." ”

Xiao Nai's heart was slightly relieved, if it was someone else, maybe she would be worried about what she would notice, that young man, looking at his age, he was also sullen on weekdays, so he was not afraid, thinking of this, Xiao Nai made up his mind and said: "This matter, I will leave it to you, you only need to hand over a message to your father, and for the rest, my father will naturally have a plan." ”

The tortoiseshell responded simply, and Xiao Nai seemed to think of something again: "By the way, by the way, tell my father that Your Majesty is discussing the matter of the imperial examination, and my cousin has invited a famous teacher from my father to teach him carefully, and I can also try it this time, if it can be done, it will also be my father's help in the court." ”

On the other side, Wang Lang was carrying a sweat towel embroidered by tortoiseshell himself, and he was not happy, although he knew that he had just walked to the imperial garden, and bumped into a person head-on.

The man was not as tall as his shoulders, Wang Lang smiled, and looked at the person in front of him, it was Yuxue, he was taller and stronger than the last time he saw him, and at the same time calm.

Yuxue was on an errand in the Palace of Cultivating the Heart, and Wang Lang was running around in Jingzhaoyin and the Praetorian Guard all day long, counting, he hadn't seen him for several months, Wang Lang had always been a hearty character, he patted Yuxue's shoulder with his big hand, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect your son to grow so tall, I think at the beginning, you were still a thin child like a monkey." ”

Yuxue dodged away, and looked at Wang Lang's eyes with more complicated emotions, Wang Lang's hand froze in mid-air, a little embarrassed, and then he laughed loudly and said: "You have grown up, Yuxue, are you used to life in the palace?" ”

Yuxue looked at him fixedly, and said in a deep voice: "Back then, Commander Wang took care of me a lot, but I don't know something, I hope Commander you will give me an answer——"

The smile on Wang Lang's face disappeared, but he became a little embarrassed, as if he could predict that the child in front of him was going to ask something, he turned his face away, looked at the unknown darkness, there was a faint flash of crystal in his eyes, but it was quickly hidden by him, he smiled: "What did you do with so many things back then, now Your Majesty values you, you have to work hard, and you will have a bright future——"

Yuxue's eyes were dark, and there was a stubborn look in them, he didn't say anything, just stared at Wang Lang fixedly, Wang Lang was forced by him to have no choice, so he could only say helplessly: "I promised her, no, it's okay if you didn't enter the palace, but now that you have entered the palace, these things can't be with you——"

Yuxue's eyes were a little red, and even a little choked, he looked at Wang Lang, took a deep breath, and then suppressed the tremor in his voice, and said: "I only ask you one word, you only need to answer yes or no, and I won't be difficult for you." ”

Wang Lang frowned, he knew that Yuxue was on duty outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, maybe he had discovered something, thinking of this, he was a little unbearable, but he only nodded and acquiesced to Yuxue's conditions.

Yuxue said: "Isn't it, I won't see my son in my life in the future?" ”

Wang Lang only felt as if his psychology had been pricked by a needle, and he felt that there was a thousand catties on the top of his head, which made him freeze in place and couldn't move, Yuxue unconsciously approached one step ahead, and the fierce momentum that burst out of the young man's body made Wang Lang a little frightened, under such persecution, Wang Lang had to nod and said: "Yes." ”

In an instant, Yuxue's footsteps paused suddenly, and the strength in his body seemed to dissipate, he shook his head and suddenly laughed, until he laughed out of tears, and muttered in his mouth: "Sure enough, it's her, sure enough, it's her, but why, she told me, everything is the biggest in life, why?" ”

No one could give him an answer, he had been chasing him for so long, he felt that his life was picked up by her from the pile of dead, and in the darkest time of his life, it was she who tore a hole in the boundless despair and pulled him out.
