After that day, she didn't go to Murong Garden for a long time, first, she didn't want to see the Huo family, and secondly, she heard that Qin Xinyue, Jing Qianxi, and Song Lianyi were eaten by lions in Murong Garden, she felt a little mad and didn't want to go in again.

It was not convenient for the letters to be sent to Simon's palace, and she sent them to one of his merchant friends, and passed them on through that person

In the middle of this, when Que Ming received it, it was often ten days and half a month later than expected.

Therefore, she usually receives Que Ming's letter in more than ten days, and her reply often takes him a month to receive.

Xia Qian had nothing to do in the Liuli Palace, and wrote letters to Que Ming almost every day, so that he could see her letters every day after a month.

On this day, as soon as he lifted the pen, Shi Rong came in.

"Sister, you are a little promising, brother-in-law, he is now fighting in Nankang, how can he care about so much affection and love?" Shi Rong glanced at the letter she had put away, and said with a pout.

Xia Qian glanced at him and sneered: "Sure enough, I have grown up, and I have all thought about love and love." You will be 16 years old next month, or my sister will find you a little daughter-in-law, and get married as soon as possible! “

"Don't don't, I'm a big person, marrying a wife so early, how inconvenient it is to drag my family with me!"

She glanced at him with a smile and said, "Seeing that you care so much about other people's lives, I thought you were as idle as you are?" When you're fine, accompany Brother Radish and your sister Jingya, Kuo Tianchen's side, if you can, take care of it! ”

"Okay, good, my brother listens to you. But I said, sister, it's been seven or eight months, and it's not a way for you and your brother-in-law to just write like this. When will he settle down and take us to Simon? ”

Xia Qian touched the jade pendant on her body, raised her eyebrows and joked to Shi Rong: "Why, the career of Yi Guo is not smooth, and I want to go to Simon." He didn't say he was going to take you! ”

"Sister!" Shi Rong looked at her anxiously, "You are my only sister, brother-in-law, he will become Emperor Simon in the future, and it is a matter of time before he fights with Yiguo, if I don't follow you, will I help Zhongyi to be your enemy?" “

Xia Qian frowned, quickly looked left and right, and reminded him seriously: "If you have a position in your heart, you must not say this kind of thing in the future, otherwise no one will be able to protect you!" ”

After the scorching summer, the autumn leaves fall, the trees wither, and then a heavy snowfall.

Unconsciously, Xia Qian has been trapped in the Liuli Palace for a year and two months, during which time only Shi Rong came to visit her every three days, except for the two palace maids who accompanied her.

Actually, it's not like she's been sleepy all the time, because she has two chances to go to Murong Garden every month.

Although she has always been followed, when she enters Murong Garden, the palace people can only wait outside, which can be regarded as giving her a moment of freedom.

Just after the first month, there was a sudden cold spring, and the snow was falling, which really didn't look like February.

The palace maid said that this spring cold is very rare, and the heating coal prepared has been used up, and even a few favored mothers are not enough, and several of them are afraid that they will have to freeze.

Xia Qian's body was already weak, and even if she shrunk in the quilt after cooling down, she was shivering.

At lunchtime, a few fathers-in-law suddenly came in and brought a few boxes of coals for heating.

"Oops, this is the best heating charcoal in the palace, the fire is so smokeless, only the emperor can use it!" The palace ladies said in surprise.

The father-in-law laughed and replied: "It's better for you to have good eyes, this is the emperor's royal carbon, because Mr. Li is weak, give him some even." But Mr. said that his body is still quite tough, so he will give Simon's crown princess first! ”

"Really?" Xia Qian chuckled lightly and said disdainfully: "Thank you for me, Mr. Li, just say that I will live well and be your hostage with peace of mind!" ”

After the two fathers-in-law left, the palace maids told her that although this Mr. Li had brutalized the courtiers, he would give

In addition to paying attention to a lot of yin damage that harmed the people, the emperor took care of them a lot in the glazed palace.

"Care?" Xia Qian laughed disapprovingly.

The palace maids explained: "Yes, there were six heavy snowfalls last winter, and there was a shortage of items in the ice and snow outside, but we have never lacked fruits and vegetables here, and the food is the freshest, no worse than the queen's!" ”

It was probably because there was too much snow last year, and today it lasted for nearly a month, and it was only in April that the weather finally warmed up.

Xia Qian sat in the garden during the day to enjoy the flowers, chatted and played chess with the two palace maids, and was bored at night, so she fell asleep early.

One night, feeling someone sitting in front of the window, she opened her eyes suddenly.

"Yu Nuan?" Xia Qian exclaimed in surprise through the moonlight.

"It's me, the prince and Lin Qianxue are gone, I searched for a long time after I got separated from them, and I didn't find them until a few days ago, and I didn't come back until I buried their bodies!"

Xia Qian's heart was cold, and she didn't speak for a long time.

Yu Nuan added a coat to Xia Qian, sat in front of the window and explained seriously: "Zhu Yu sent a lot of people to chase and kill, and we fled all the way north, hoping to meet the Huo family army in the north." After arriving in Huaxi City, the Huo family army attacked Mobei again, leaving only some old, weak, sick and disabled in the city. Zhu Yu was already the emperor, and the crown prince was worried that the Huo family would be affected, so he left with Lin Qianxue. As a result, not long after leaving the city, we met the killers sent by Zhu Yu, and it took me months to find them after we got separated! ”

As if a piece of ice was pressed in his heart, from the blood to the skin, Xia Qian grabbed the quilt, let the tears slide down her cheeks, and a drop fell on the quilt.

"Lin Qianxue gave birth to a daughter, and in order to escape the pursuit, they put the child in a villager's household, and the person sent to chase and kill the child of the peasant woman made a mistake. Their daughter has been transferred, what now? ”

Xia Qian was stunned, touched the tears in the corners of her eyes, and said firmly: "Bring the child here, I will raise it!" ”

"However, in our current situation, how can we protect a newborn child?"

"You bring it, there will always be a way!"

The next day, Xia Qian chatted with the two palace maids, asking about Concubine Rong's situation, and the two palace maids said that after the emperor's death, Concubine Rong had been imprisoned in Ruiyun Palace, and there was no difference between what she ate and used was not much different from that of the new show girl.

She thought for a moment and asked about my Mr. Li.

The palace maid said that this person has vicious methods, a cold temperament, and rarely comes into contact with people, and spends most of his time alone in the Eucalyptic Hall.

"Azalgi Temple? Okay, you can come with me and meet him later!"

After making some refreshments, Xia Qian took the two palace maids to the Eucalyptus Hall.

"Ahem! Ahem! “

Before he could finish the Tree Hall, he heard a long series of coughing sounds inside.

Xia Qian was shocked, the last time she met this Mr. Li outside Zhu Yu's Purple Cloud Palace, she just felt that he was sick and weak, and she never thought that he would be so weak.

Mr. Li was obviously surprised by her arrival, Xia Qian smiled, took the food box in the palace maid's hand, and explained that she was here to thank her.

"Thank you?" Mr. Li asked in surprise and asked her to sit down in the guest seat.

"This year's spring is cold, I am not feeling well, if it weren't for the gentleman to send some carbon, I am afraid I would have to be sick in bed!"

The other party sneered and replied coldly: "I'm just a strategist, planning for the emperor and planning for the country...... cough cough cough, starting from the overall situation, naturally we can't let the crown princess have an accident in the Yi country! ”

"Having said that, Mr. did help me!"

Looking at each other, Mr. Li chuckled and made a pot of tea.
