After hurriedly saying goodbye to Ye Yu and returning, the sky was already dark, and there was a faint sound of cicadas chirping in the trees. The micro-style of the night was so cool that Ye Yufu sneezed unconsciously. Rubbing his nose, he asked Cai'er behind him: "Why is the mother concubine so drunk today, and why do you have to let me go?" ”

Cai'er lowered her head and looked diligent, and said in a small voice: "The slave doesn't know, it's about this time just in time for the peach blossom wine brewed in the palace to come out of the cellar, and it tastes very good. ”

Ye Yufu nodded but was silent, knowing in her heart that the mother concubine must have hidden something in her heart today to be so greedy. But only having a seizure after the palace banquet also proves that he has a strong self-control as the second-in-command of the harem.

When she arrived at the door of the Shufei Palace, Ye Yufu asked Cai'er to retreat, and then opened the door and went in.

"Is it Fu'er, come and tell the mother to see you." As soon as she stepped into the threshold, Ye Yufu heard Song Wei's gentle voice coming slowly from the direction of the bedroom. Following the voice, I saw my mother sitting in front of the dressing mirror silently.

Song Wei was still wearing the ink-blue silk dress with a narrow neckline and wide sleeves embroidered with camellia at the palace banquet, but she had removed the gold leaf beads on her head, and her long jet-black hair was scattered like this. His face was slightly red, as if he was drunk, but there were no signs on his limbs.

"Fu'er, come and comb the concubine's hair." Ye Yufu didn't say anything, just nodded, then picked up the ivory comb on the stage and gently brushed the hair again and again.

After a long time, Song Wei was still just staring at herself in the mirror in a daze, Ye Yufu couldn't hold back and finally asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you." Why get drunk tonight. ”

After a long time, Song Wei moved, got up and held Ye Yufu's hand and sat down with her, then stared at the mirror and sighed and asked: "You say, is the mother concubine old, I just saw that there are some fine lines in the corners of my eyes, and my skin is far less tight than before." ”

Ye Yufu quietly looked at Song Wei's still beautiful face and comforted: "How come, mother concubine for so many years, in my opinion, your appearance has not changed at all." My father also said that you are still as beautiful as you were fifteen years ago. ”

Song Wei suddenly burst into laughter when she heard this, and only then did she say with tears in her eyes, "Emperor, you are in a high position." There are three thousand beauties in the harem, how can you notice the wrinkles in the corners of anyone's eyes? Fu'er, do you know that the red face is easy to grow old, and what I am most afraid of is that this heart is no longer as young as it was young. ”

Ye Yufu held Song Wei's arm tightly, for fear that she would be excited, bumped into it, and whispered, "Mother! Father is the most fond of you! You can't think about it like this. ”

"Hmph, pampering, who is rare about his so-called pampering, I know that I am just a substitute for my sister. But I don't care, because the person I love has never been him. After speaking, Song Wei seemed to think of something, opened the drawer, and took out a dark red pearl-encrusted box inside.

There was only one red tassel hairpin inlaid with water-pink glaze in the box, which looked to be a few years old, but it was not worn in the slightest, and each tassel was neatly arranged on the red handkerchief under the box.

I saw Song Wei raise her hands and put her hair in a bun, and then gently brushed the hairpin. Then he picked it up and gently plugged it in, looked left and right in the mirror, and finally sighed and pulled it out.

Ye Yufu's left eyelid jumped from the moment she entered the door, and she faintly felt that she couldn't let her mother continue to speak: "Mother, you should be tired today, I'll help you go to the bed and rest quickly." ”

Song Wei shook her head and suddenly fell to her knees with tears like rain: "Fu'er, my good daughter, my mother is sorry for you, trapped you in this palace, so that you will never be able to recognize your own father." ”

Dear....Father? What is it called being trapped in the palace and not being able to recognize his father. Hearing this, Ye Yufu broke away from Song Wei's hand and took a few steps back, for fear that she had just heard it wrong.

The words that came out were trembling: "Mother...... What do you mean by that? You said that my father is not my father, so who is? ”

"Fu'er, forgive my mother for not being able to tell you, just because I promised him back then that I would never communicate with him from now on. I can't cause trouble for him. After speaking, she grabbed Ye Yufu's cuffs and shook her head vigorously in pleading.

"What about me, you let me know how to face the people in the palace in the future. How to face my father who loves me so much. ”

In such a short quarter of an hour, Ye Yufu seems to have experienced the ups and downs of life. From a noble royal princess to a son who doesn't know who his father is. She couldn't bear to continue blaming her mother. She knew very well that Song Wei had been so tormented when she looked at herself and the emperor in the past fifteen years.

Whether it was facing Ye Yufu, who was aggressive at the beginning, or Ye Yufu, who was silent later, Song Wei couldn't cry. was supposed to be a happy Dragon Boat Festival, but today it has become a shadow that can never be erased in Ye Yufu's heart.

Ye Yufu didn't remember how long Song Wei had been talking to her last night, but she only remembered that she was shocked by the truth of her life experience and couldn't come back to her senses. Then Song Wei fell into a deep sleep, and then left with heavy steps.

She knew that the mother had a problem, that is, when she woke up drunk, she would forget what she had said before. This also means that the overwhelming fact must be concealed.

Xu didn't fall asleep all night, and it happened to be a heavy rain when he left Song Wei's palace last night. Ye Yufu only felt that her body was heavy at the moment, and her head was also dizzy.

Yan'er got up early and prepared to wake up the princess to take a bath and change clothes. I called outside the door four or five times, but there was no response, so I had to open the door and enter.

When I got to the bedside, I just wanted to start educating the eldest princess who couldn't get up at the moment. But as soon as I entered, I saw Ye Yufu wrapped in a cup, revealing a flushed little face, and her mouth was still panting. A pair of eyebrows were tightly locked together, and his expression was very painful.

Then he reached out and touched it, and as expected, the eldest princess had a high fever. The temperature on his forehead was like burning his hands. Frightened, Yan'er hurriedly summoned the imperial doctor.

Within a moment, Ye Yufu's room was full of people, and Song Wei hurried over without worrying about headaches and before she had time to make up. Sitting on the edge of the bed and watching her daughter lying on the collapse and having difficulty breathing, her heart ached.

Imperial Doctor Lin, who was the most skilled in the art of Tai Hospital, also heard the summons and hurried over. Through the pulse of Pazimo Ye Yufu, it took about half a moment before he spoke: "Don't worry, the eldest princess just has a high fever caused by a cold." Wait for me to prescribe a few prescriptions and take them, and then recuperate in Qiyao. ”

Only then did Song Wei let go of a hanging heart, stroked the broken hair on Ye Yufu's forehead, and helped change the ice towel. Only then did I remember that I had lost my demeanor at the moment, and I got up and wanted to change my dress.

In her sleep, Ye Yufu seemed to hear many voices coming intermittently, saying to wake up quickly. She couldn't tell whose voices they belonged to. It's just that she doesn't want to wake up at the moment, and when she wakes up, she will be the eldest princess who is extremely noble, and she can't show any vulnerability and can't talk to others.

The princess is different from the prince, and when the prince reaches adulthood, he will divide the title of land according to the size of his merits, and from now on he will be at ease. But the princess must have the most dignified etiquette and upbringing, and there is no room for a difference of 10,000 points. Ye Yufu couldn't imagine how angry his father would be if he knew the truth one day.

In the blink of an eye, the moon crept up the branches, and the people who were waiting in the boudoir left early. Ye Yufu slowly opened her eyes in the darkness, tilting her head to stare at the dancing candle flame on the mahogany coffee table. The chaotic footsteps of the palace maid outside the room also came clearly into my ears. The slightest coolness came from the ice cloth on his forehead, and the heat dissipated.

As a breeze blew by, the candle flame was blown a little weaker, followed by the slight sound of the window being opened. Ye Yufu was startled, raised her weak body and half-leaned on the bed to stare at the paper window that was pushed open.

Ye Yugui's head poked out of the window, and he was dressed in black and made a sign language to ask if he could go in. Ye Yufu nodded and saw him shake his body, and with a whoosh, he jumped over the window frame that was high to his neck.

Ye Yufu coughed twice and covered her mouth with her hand before saying, "Seventh Emperor Brother, why did you come to my dormitory on this big night." It wouldn't be good if someone found out. ”

After Ye Yugui slowly opened it with a black package, it was a bowl of green vegetable porridge, and there was a trace of white gas floating on the porridge, and he just made it when he saw it, and he blew it lightly a few times before handing it to Ye Yufu with confidence: "Imperial sister, you are sick today, there is a mess in the palace, I heard that the emperor and the emperor are coming straight away, how can I not know." Drink this porridge quickly, and I'll leave when I'm done. ”

Ye Yufu handed over the porridge, and after the porcelain spoon was gently put in his mouth, he didn't say anything for a long time. Ye Yugui stared at the bowl with a slightly red face, looked at her for a long time, and asked in a low voice: "Is it not to your liking, I am afraid that I didn't master the heat when I made porridge for the first time." After speaking, he snatched the porridge and tasted it, and then coughed several times with salt.

"Ahem, ahem. Sister Huang, this porridge is so salty, why don't you tell me. I'll make you something delicious tomorrow. ”

Ye Yufu just took back the bowl again, holding the bottom of the bowl, Ye Yu returned it and watched a bowl of porridge being drunk before he had time to stop it. Ye Yufu laughed after drinking: "It's okay, it's okay." This salt is too much, it helps sweating, and it can make my illness heal faster. ”

However, as soon as she finished laughing, Ye Yufu turned away and gently put the bowl aside. After a long time, he said sadly: "Do you know, Brother Seventh Emperor, I learned a secret yesterday that made me miserable. But I can't talk to anyone. ”

Ye Yugui Weileng's words were extremely reassuring: "Then you can cry, I can accompany you." Just hold me like a log. ”

Xu really needed to vent, Ye Yufu hugged Ye Yugui, who was thin and not as thin as his shoulder, lowered his head and wept silently until his left shoulder was wet.

"Brother Seven Emperors, what if I can't protect you anymore. You won't blame me, will you? ”

Ye Yugui patted her shoulder, his voice was still a little immature, but his tone was unusually firm: "How could it be, if it weren't for the imperial sister, you." I may still be in that cold hall of cold return, or even died years ago. You are my most beloved person. I will always regard you as my sister.

Ye Yufu nodded lightly, and the hands holding Ye Yugui tightened a little.

It took a long time for a heavy response to come out of his throat: "Yes." ”
