It has been more than a month since the queen died, and Gu Qing still clearly remembers the night she left, a heavy snowfall came, and in the heavy snow, Gu Qing watched Gu Ning leave with a smile.

"Mother, did my sister turn over today?" Puff touched Gu Qing's stomach and asked.

Gu Qing came back to his senses, "Not yet, my sister may be tired today." ”

"Really?" Puff blinked with big eyes, "Then she knows that her brother is coming, why don't she say hello?" ”

"Maybe she hasn't woken up yet!" Gu Qing asked people to carry Puff to bed, "Come, do it, do you want to hear the story?" ”

"Uh-huh, I think, mother, what happened to the little monkey after he was crushed under the mountain?" Puff is still young, but her memory is very good.

Gu Qing said with a smile, "That monkey was pressed under Wuzhi Mountain for a full five hundred years, until a monk passed by......"

Inside the house, Gu Qing was telling a story with Puff, and outside the house, snowflakes were floating again.

"How? Raw? Yan Ze was anxiously outside the door of the delivery room, walking around. Why haven't you given birth yet? ”

"Your Majesty, this woman gives birth to a child like this, it takes time, Concubine Yue Niangniang has already given birth to one, don't worry, there will be no problem." The midwife comforted Yan Ze with a good voice.

Yan Ze has never guarded a woman's birth, and Gu Ning couldn't get pregnant before, so Yan Ze hasn't experienced it either, as for other aunts or something, it's not worth him to guard it personally. When Gu Qing was born for the first time, he happened to be not around, so this was really the first time for Yan Ze.

Listening to Gu Qing's screams in the house, Yan Ze was anxious, "How long will it take?" Can you give an exact time? ”

"This ...... Your Majesty, women's childbirth, everyone is different, some people are fast, some people are late, this can't be controlled! The midwife's face was sad.

Looking at the appearance of the midwife, Yan Ze also knew that there was no way, I heard that the woman's birth was dangerous, but now it was really the first time to experience it, helpless, Yan Ze had to walk around the flower hall.

"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you? Is someone bullying you, poof, here, mother. ”

Xiao Pupu heard Gu Qing's screams when she entered the door, and hurriedly broke free from the nurse and ran to the door of the delivery room, "Mother, mother." ”

"Little prince, Niangniang is giving birth to a younger brother for you!" The nurse comforted and screamed anxiously.

Puff wow wow began to cry, "You lie, the mother is obviously calling, I want the mother concubine." ”

A group of palace maids and eunuchs looked at it and cried, they wanted to go in, this child is small, and he is a prince, he can't stop it, he doesn't stop it, he really doesn't know what to do for a while?

"Puff, come to my father." Yan Ze beckoned to Puff.

Puff cried and pulled Yan Ze, "Father, save the mother concubine." ”

"Silly child, this mother is giving birth to a child, it's okay, you were born like this by your mother before." Puff has been smart since he was a child, so Yan Ze reasoned with him, held Puff in his arms, and waited for Gu Qing together.

Puff sniffed, "Really? But the mother was in pain. ”

"It's okay, when my sister comes out, poof, go to the mother's concubine, and the mother's concubine won't be in pain then." Yan Ze coaxed poof.

Puff nodded vigorously and responded, "Okay." ”

"Wow, wow, wow."

"Born, born, a little princess." The voice of a midwife was heard in the delivery room.

"Congratulations to the Emperor." A group of palace maids, slaves say goodbye.

After the delivery room was cleaned up, Puff hurriedly rushed in, "Mother, Puff is here, are you still in pain?" It doesn't hurt if the cricket gives you a whirl. ”

Gu Qing's birth this time was quite smooth, but she still had some spirit, "The mother concubine doesn't hurt, this is blown by a puff, and it doesn't hurt anymore." Baby, go see your sister. ”

"Okay." Seeing that the mother concubine was not in pain, Puff happily ran to see her sister again.

"Thank you for your hard work." Yan Ze sat on the edge of the bed and held Gu Qing's little hand, "Don't give birth in the future, you scared me enough just now." ”

With Yan Ze's words, Gu Qing suddenly felt that everything he had just experienced was worth it, "What you said, didn't you say that you have more children and more blessings, I just gave birth to two for you, is it enough?" ”

"Isn't it enough, a son and a daughter, just right, as long as we have good quality, those who give birth to a lot, not filial piety, it's not useless." Yan Ze explained solemnly, he is different from his brothers, he doesn't think it's useful to have so many sons, if he doesn't teach well, then maybe he is still an enemy.

Seeing that Yan Ze said seriously, Gu Qing felt that it was a complete thing to meet such a person in this life.

"Mother, my sister is too ugly, can you change it?" Just finished watching my sister's poof, she came back with a frown, "She's not the same as me at all, she's not good-looking." ”

"Hahaha, you kid."

Puff narcissistic words amused the whole room out laughing.

"I think my son is so narcissistic that he just follows you." Yan Ze ruthlessly broke Gu Qing's narcissism.

Gu Qing didn't care, this is called self-confidence, self-confidence, do you understand? "My sister is still young, and she will look good in a month."

"Can't she look good now?" Puff still seems to be a little incomprehensible, "Chenchen's sister is good-looking." ”

"Chenchen's sister is one year old, of course she is good-looking, and when your sister is one year old, she will definitely look better than his sister." Knowing his son's heart, Gu Qing said in passing.

Puff reluctantly accepted Gu Qing's statement, "Then the mother, what is my sister's name?" ”

"My sister's nickname is Little Orange, and as for the big name, it will have to be handed over to your father."

"Well, I'll have to think about it." Yan Ze thought, "You take a rest first, just after giving birth, you sleep and get up again, I'll go see my daughter." ”

"Okay."

Gu Qing was also a little tired, and when Gu Qing woke up, it was already three hours later.

"Mother, you're awake!" Fangcao thoughtfully sent Gu Qing a bowl of chicken soup, "You drink a bowl of chicken soup first to replenish your qi." ”

"Where's the little orange? Hold it up and show me. Gu Qing is thinking about her daughter, she hasn't seen her since she was born!

Hearing Gu Qing mention the little orange, Fangcao wanted to laugh, "Niangniang, the emperor and the little prince are guarding the little princess, and they have been guarding for a few hours." ”

"What?" Listening to Fangcao's words, Gu Qing couldn't cry or laugh, she could already imagine what the father and son, one big and one small, looked like squatting next to the little orange.

That's right, just like Gu Qing thought, at this time, Yan Ze was squatting beside Xiao Tangerine's bed with Puff.

"Father, look at the little orange spitting bubbles again." Puff pointed to the little orange on the bed in surprise.

"Shhhhh Yan Ze motioned to puff and whisper, don't wake up the little orange, and after speaking, he looked at the little orange's face and analyzed it carefully.

Well, my eyebrows are like me, my mouth is like Gu Qing, and my face is like Gu Qing, and I will be a little beauty in the future. I haven't opened my eyes yet, and looking at the silhouette, well, it must look like me.

The two stayed in Gu Qing's house for a month, Gu Qing accompanied Gu Qing when he didn't sleep, and Gu Qing went to squat in the small orange house when he slept.

Puff comes every day, just to see if her sister will become beautiful, and Yan Ze is to see her two cuties.

Under the observation of the two, the little orange finally changed something.

From the beginning of sleeping and eating, eating and sleeping, I became able to wake up for an hour or two, and I could open my eyes, not to mention that my eyes were really similar to Yan Ze.

As the red on his face faded, the skin of the little orange became fairer and fairer, and it looked tender, which made Yan Ze love it, and every time he wanted to hug it, he felt that the little orange was too small, soft and small, and he felt that it was bad when he touched it.

Under the watchful eye of these two fathers and sons, the little orange was already able to babble and speak.

"Mother, my sister called me just now." While eating, Puff said suddenly.

Gu Qing, "??? She just screamed a few times. ”

For Gu Qing's explanation, Puff didn't agree, "But my sister clearly called me brother just now." ”

"......" Gu Qing was speechless, did this child have auditory hallucinations recently, or something? always said that the little orange was calling him, obviously others were babbling a few times! "Then you let her call you again."

Unwillingly, he leaned in front of the little orange, "Little orange, call brother, brother, brother." ”

"Hehehe, hehehe." Little Tangerine thought that Puff was playing with her, and danced happily.

Gu Qing took the little orange from the nurse's hand, "I'll just say it, the little orange is only seven months old, how can he speak." ”

Puff was a little frustrated, "I made a bet with Chenchen, I said my sister can talk." ”

"Why do you say that? My sister is still young, and it will take a few months to speak. Gu Qing asked puzzled.

Speaking of Chenchen, he said with a puff: "Chenchen's sister can run behind Chenchen." ”

Gu Qing smiled, "Wait for another half a year, and the little orange can also run after you, don't dislike her for dragging her feet when the time comes." ”

"How could I dislike her?" Puff couldn't quite understand the meaning of disgust, "No." ”

Looking at the appearance of Puff, Gu Qing knew that this was a spoiled sister madman, alas, it is not enough to have a father who spoils his daughter, and there is a brother, thinking about it, Gu Qing feels a little jealous.

When he went to bed at night, Gu Qing mentioned the matter of puff, Yan Ze said with a smile, "He is still young, and when he sees what others have, he wants it, which is normal." Besides, our daughter is so cute, Puff probably wants to show off! ”

"Hmph, I think you all only like your daughter, right?" Gu Qing turned over and turned his back to Yan Ze angrily.

Yan Ze didn't expect that Gu Qing would actually eat his daughter's vinegar, "You are also my baby, don't worry, your daughter must be behind you." ”

Being held in Yan Ze's arms, Gu Qing calmed down a bit, "You all only care about little oranges recently, you weren't like this before." ”

Yan Ze listened to Gu Qing's words and thought about it, since the little orange was born recently, he has paid more attention to the little orange, it seems that he has neglected Gu Qing a little, and he feels a little guilty when he thinks about it, "It's all my fault, won't it be in the future?" ”

"Then you swear that you won't ignore me because of my daughter."

"I swear."

"Alright then, trust you for now."

With Yan Ze's assurance, Gu Qing threw herself into Yan Ze's arms with a smile again, looking at the woman in her arms, Yan Ze felt extremely satisfied.

* Time splitting

"Mother, you see this is a kitten." Not far away, a little orange was running over with a kitten in her arms.

The maid and the servant on the side followed worriedly, "Princess, be careful, don't fall." ”

"You kid, you're so naughty, be careful that your father cleans you up." Gu Qing hugged the little orange that couldn't come. "Where did you get this kitten?"

The little orange put the kitten on the ground, "My father likes me so much, so he won't clean me up!" This is the cute kitten that Brother Chenchen gave me, right? ”

The little orange said with an arrogant face, the father's favorite girl is the best.

Gu Qing knew that since Yan Ze had a little orange, his whole personality had changed greatly, and he hugged his daughter all day long, alas, Gu Qing was a little jealous.

"You went to your brother again? Didn't the concubine say that you can't disturb your brother's study? ”

Little Tangerine hurriedly shook his head, "Little Tangerine didn't go in, I was waiting outside for my brother to get out of class." ”

"Niangniang, Xiufang has sent your palace clothes here." Yerba Cao is now also dressed as a woman, "Would you like to try it?" ”

"No, there's nothing to try, put it away and wear it on the day of the ceremony." Gu Qing is about to be crowned a concubine now, and there are still a lot of things to prepare.

It has been three years since Gu Ning passed away in the blink of an eye, and a lot has happened in the past three years. The first is Maruko, who died of dystocia, and begged Gu Qing to take care of her child when she was dying. Maruko gave birth to a son, Gu Qing responded to Maruko's last wish, brought the child back to the palace, and followed Puff to serve her, which can be regarded as fulfilling Maruko's wish.

The death of Maruko gave Gu Qing another heavy blow, and in this lonely deep palace, Gu Qing felt that he had less and less hope. Whenever he had this thought, Yan Ze would comfort Gu Qing in time and find something to do for her.

In the past three years, if there is anything good, the biggest one is probably that Cherry married Chen Chen.

Gu Qing still remembered his shock when Chen Chen came over to marry Cherry. After discussing with Cherry, Gu Qing told Chen Chen that Cherry couldn't get pregnant, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't care, and with Gu Qing's encouragement, Cherry finally got married.

After getting married, Gu Qing has been asking the imperial doctor to recuperate Cherry, but he didn't expect that good news came at the beginning of this year.

Now the power of the harem is still the same as it was back then, managed by Xiao Qingqing, Li Yuan, Aunt Mo Ru and Mama Gu, and now Mama is also taking care of Mama Puff.

Several parties are in power, and the days of the harem are a lot calmer. After the death of the queen, there were no new recruits in the palace, and the vacant rear position was also urged by the courtiers that the country could not be without a queen for a day.

Yan Ze withstood the pressure, and after all, he did not stand behind.

After the concubine ceremony, Yan Ze was ready to set off for Jiangnan, it was still a cold winter, and Gu Qing packed up his salute.

"Alas, I also want to go, but Qingqing has been busy and crazy recently, and I can't do without arresting me as a coolie, otherwise I would like to go to Jiangnan again." Ke Lan helped Gu Qing clean up her salute.

Gu Qing knew that Ke Lan had been oppressed very much recently, "You, it's better to do things for Qingqing, otherwise, you will suffer." ”

"Alas!" Ke Lan sighed and shook her head, mourning for her fate.

Since Xiao Qingqing took over part of the rights of the harem, it seems that she has found her own joy in life, every time she works, she is a crazy demon who works overtime, and she has become a strong woman in Gu Qing's eyes.

also let Li Yuan show Xiao Qingqing as a mortal enemy, and the two of them fought wits and courage in order to earn a life, which was not exciting. This has also become the most important thing in Gu Qing's life.

"It's cold outside, put on your cloak." Yan Ze walked out of the cabin, "What are you thinking?" ”

Gu Qing leaned on Yan Ze's arms and looked into the distance, "I'm thinking about the last time we went to Jiangnan." ”

"Really? That was years ago, do you remember? ”

Gu Qing nodded, "Of course I remember, when I went out, I wrapped myself in a ball, and the weather was cold, so I hid in the cabin and played, and I didn't dare to come out at all." ”

"Are you too embarrassed to say it? How much did you eat on the way that time, do you know in your own heart? Yan Ze thought of that time Gu Qing had a full mouthful, like a little squirrel along the way, eating non-stop.

"I was a teenager at the time, so young."

"yes, I was a kid then, and now I'm an adult." Thinking that Gu Qing has matured a lot in the past two years, Yan Ze is also very emotional, Gu Qing always shows maturity when he is away, but in front of him, he is still a child.

"Yan Ze."

"Huh?"

"Shall we live together like this for the rest of our lives?"

"Okay, when Puff grows up, I'll pass the throne to him, and then take you on a tour of the mountains and rivers, okay?"

"Okay."

The two hugged each other in the bow of the boat, and the boat floated along the drink to the unknown distance.
