Hu Yan was worried that he would be wasted, so he found an excuse to send the two princes away. The old emperor secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and lay straight on the bed, gasping for breath.

After coming out of the Xianglong Palace, the two secretly went to consult the imperial doctor because of the old emperor's illness. The Taiyi said the same thing, either shaking his head or avoiding it, and only said that he would take a few more pills to try, but he didn't let go anyway.

After experiencing this incident, the two princes were anxious when they returned to their mansions, and King De was silent on the surface, but he was also very anxious in his heart.

After some calculation, King De planned to brake quietly, anyway, this throne was already within reach. And King Yun is now at a disadvantage and has to plan a way back for himself.

*

Wu Muyun returned to the mansion with a heavy face and a restless heart. He shut himself up in his study all night and stayed up all night by candlelight in front of a room.

Thinking that tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, when I gather together to eat the New Year's dinner, I will send Cui Hong and Mo Qiantao away. Unexpectedly, on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Cui Hong suddenly felt uncomfortable, like a sign of premature birth. Only then did Wu Muyun become anxious, and he was busy inviting a doctor, and the maid and wife in the house had to follow and serve him, for fear that there would be a good one.

And Mo Qiantao naturally no one paid attention to it. She felt that this was a good opportunity to leave, and she had planned to say goodbye to the thought of getting acquainted with Cuihong. When I walked to her door, I saw that the maid looked panicked, and from time to time I could hear the low moaning of Cui Hong......

She stood there stunned for a moment, then turned around and stole the token from Xin Yuan's body, changed into her clothes, and smeared rouge gouache on her already swollen and deformed face, and walked towards the gate with her head slightly bowed when everything was ready.

"Which yard maid?" The servant guarding the door saw that she was born, but it was a water spirit, and he wanted to tease her.

Mo Qiantao took out the token and looked very anxious, "I'm from Suluo Courtyard, our aunt is about to give birth, and I want to eat some candied fruit to remove the bitterness in my mouth, you open the door quickly." ”

The servant was stunned for a moment, knowing that he could not afford to do so, and hurriedly opened the door.

Mo Qiantao never expected to come out so easily, and she felt a burst of emotion in her heart, and even went for a moment Her eyes were red.

She first found a pawnshop and pawned the pendant from Wu Muyun's body, although she didn't get much silver, the savings were still enough for her to support her for a while.

After she came out, she felt at a loss, and she didn't know what she would rely on to make a living in the future, but the capital decided that she couldn't continue to stay, and she had to start over in another place.

When she walked to the gate of the city, she found that the gate had long been closed, and the number of soldiers guarding the city had decreased, and she was suddenly suspicious......

Looking further, a notice was posted in a conspicuous place, saying that the mountain was closed by heavy snow and could not be entered or exited for the time being.

Mo Qiantao felt that things were not so simple......

Isn't there something going to happen in the imperial city?

She had a headache when she thought about it, and she really didn't hit a good time.

But there is also a little more peace of mind, in this case, Wu Muyun will definitely not look for her everywhere, at most, let Li Junru send a few people to look for her privately.

In this snowy expanse, she must find a place to stay, otherwise she will freeze to death. She first found a place to change her clothes, and then began to wander the streets aimlessly.

Seeing that the snow was falling heavier and heavier, she found a family that did not seem to have a good background, and knocked on the door with luck, trying to tempt them to stay for one night with silver.

The door was opened by an old woman with staggering steps and shabby clothes. Mo Qiantao couldn't imagine that there was such a poor family at the feet of the Son of Heaven.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, her hall was dim, and there was not even a candle flame.

"What's the matter with the girl?" The old woman looked her up and down suspiciously.

"I ......" Mo Qiantao lowered her head and looked sad. The old woman saw that the momentum was not a good thing, and immediately prepared to close the door.

"Auntie, you must help me, my father is going to sell me, you will send kindness to save me, I will give you silver." Mo Qiantao arrived at the door and pleaded.

The eldest lady sighed and said in astonishment, "New Year's Day, your father is so ruthless?" ”

"But it's not, my mother died early, my father was a good gambler, I made money in Fengjia Zhuangzi during the day, and I had to spend money to buy wine for him when I went back at night, he couldn't afford to pay off his gambling debts, so he wanted to sell me...... My life is so miserable......" Mo Qiantao made up old-fashioned stories, trying to win sympathy.

"Come in and talk." The old woman suddenly thought of something, and invited her into the house. The house was foggy, and it could only be lit by snowflakes.

"I'm the only old woman at home, and I twisted my leg today, and I can't go to work for several days, so I have to save money for this oil lamp, right?" The old woman saw her doubts and explained them to her.

"It's okay, I'm grateful that you can take me in." Whether there is a light or not is not the point, as long as she is not sleeping outside, she can accept it. Even if it's a stable.

After sitting down in the hall, the old woman said bluntly, "I didn't take you in for nothing, I took a job a few days ago, the Xiao family, a big family in the capital, wanted to marry a wife, and I originally planned to help, but as a result, I twisted my leg, and you may take it for me for a day." Your father would never have thought that you would dare to go out and help. ”

Mo Qiantao pretended to hesitate, and then nodded in embarrassment.

On the other side, Wu Muyun has been guarding the Suluo Courtyard, waiting for Cui Hong to give birth to his first child smoothly. The maids kept coming in with clear boiling water, and when they came out, they were already looking at a basin of blood water, and the mothers-in-law were also busy sweating profusely, and the whole mansion was in a state of anxiety.

Due to premature birth and excessive blood loss, Cui Hong was already dazed and had no strength. I can only rely on two midwives to help me press my stomach, and the other to reach out and dig it.

"Lord Squire, I'm afraid my aunt won't be able to." Xin Yuan panicked, tears falling straight down.

Feng Rongxi was stunned for a moment, and quietly wanted to see how Wu Muyun made decisions.

He didn't hesitate at all, and said with a heavy face, "Be sure to keep the little one." ”

Feng Rongxi was shocked, he didn't have the slightest hesitation, he seemed to love Tan Cuihong on weekdays, but at this moment of life and death, Tan Cuihong's life seemed so worthless in his heart.

She steadied herself, thinking that he still has no heirs, and it is normal to be anxious about the child, and Cuihong is a worthless play, so it is strange that she can really care.

"Xianggong, don't worry, my sister is a blessed person, and besides, Xianggong, if you thank the emperor, you will definitely be able to protect your sister." Feng Rongxi said this flattering thing on her lips, but she hoped that Cuihong would die well, so that she could bring Cuihong's child to raise......

"Auntie—you have to work harder—you've already seen the head—" The midwife pulled her throat, eager to give birth for her.

After a while, there was a soft cry in the house, and the midwife cheered happily, "Born, born, boy." ”

When Wu Muyun heard this, his face was happy, and he was about to go to the house, but was stopped by Feng Rongxi, "The smell of blood in the house is strong at the moment, and the yin qi is very strong, so Xianggong should wait for the midwife to take the doll out." ”

When she said this, she wept with jealousy. This drama is really good.

Before she could finish her jealousy, the midwife wailed again, "Auntie is bleeding more than once...... Go get a doctor. ”

When Feng Rongxi heard this, there was a smile on his face, as if his face had changed, and he was restrained in an instant.

"Go get a doctor." Wu Muyun named it, and then instructed the midwife to take out the red milk doll. He took the baby and led the nurse to turn around and leave.

Seeing this, Feng Rongxi instructed the maid to take care of her aunt, and turned around and chased after Wu Muyun.

Cui Hong lay on the bed, her strength seemed to be slowly drained as the hot and humid liquid continued to gush out of her lower body. Although her eyes were hazy, she could hear the maid in the room calling in her ear.

She wanted to raise her hand, but she didn't have the strength to do it, she opened her dry lips, "Ah Yun...... Ah Yun ...... My boy ......"

When the midwife heard this, she patted her thigh and became anxious, "It's a boy, and he was taken away by an adult." Auntie, wait a while, the old slave will let the adult bring the baby over and show you. ”

Why take her baby?

Don't you think she can't do it anymore and want to be left to Feng Rongxi to raise?

Thinking of this, Cui Hong was very excited, "My child...... Give back my ...... child"

When Xinyuan invited the doctor back, her face was full of tears, and she went out to look for Wu Muyun non-stop. At this time, he was teasing the little milk baby in Yunlan Courtyard, and Feng Rongxi kept praising and echoing on the side.

Even if Xinyuan was stupid, he could see that they had forgotten about Emerald Red at all. She froze in place for a moment, then finally went in.

"My lord, my aunt is anxious to see you and the doll."

Wu Muyun didn't seem to hear it, and his mind was indulged in the newborn baby. Feng Rongxi glanced at Xinyuan and complained that she didn't have the eyesight to see.

"Don't you see your grown-ups busy? The place where the midwife stays is heavy and yin, if you go to fold the blessings of adults, how can you afford it? Go back! What are you talking about here? ”

Xin Yuan glanced back and forth at the two of them, and said timidly, "Can ...... Aunt Ke...... She just wanted to see the milk baby she gave birth to. ”

She didn't understand, it was obvious that Wu Muyun took the most care of Cuihong, why did he become so indifferent at this juncture. Just when Xinyuan was depressed, Wu Muyun handed the baby to the nurse and asked her to take care of it.

After explaining, he went to Suluo Courtyard with Xinyuan.

After the doctor came, he has been trying to find a way to stop Cuihong's bleeding, but the effect is small, and now I am afraid that I can only wait for death.

When the dazed Cui Hong saw Wu Muyun with a calm face, she couldn't wait to sit up immediately and dragged Wu Muyun away, "Ah Yun...... Where's my child......"

At this time, Wu Muyun's face was soft, and he patted his emerald hanging arm, "Don't worry, the child is very good." ”

"I ...... I...... I want to meet him. Her tone was almost pleading, and the tears could not stop falling.

"Don't talk about that, get better soon." Wu Muyun felt that she was a dying person, and it was not suitable for the milk baby to stay with her, for fear of dyeing the turbidity on her body.
