271. Heavy rain

When the emperor came up, he came in the rain, and after he got out of his steps, he walked very fast, and the hem of his robe was splashed with rain, and his head and body were also stained with raindrops. > ≥Bayi Chinese ≦<<.<8≤1

Xie Ning stood in front of the door to greet her, and as soon as the emperor saw her, he waved his hand: "Come in, it's cold outside." ”

Xie Ning held one of the emperor's hands, and the two walked into the hall hand in hand. The emperor was afraid that the cold on her body would irritate her, so when she entered the house, she let go of her hand, went to the side hall to change her wet coat, and wiped the rain off her head and face.

Xie Ning stood by the screen and watched the emperor change his clothes and clean face, and his eyes were reluctant to leave him for a moment. Do the math, she hasn't seen the emperor for three days.

As people say, if you don't see each other for a day, then she has been separated by nine autumns.

couldn't see the emperor, she also ate, drank and lived as usual, but she just felt panicked. There is a piece of space in the chest that is empty.

Now that I saw him, the space was filled.

The emperor turned his head and saw Xie Ning looking at him like that.

Xie Ning asked softly, "Has the emperor had dinner?" ”

The emperor was stunned, and Xie Ning simply changed his question: "When did the emperor use his last meal?" ”

After noon, the emperor has nothing to do in his heart, and he has no appetite at all, and the dining room is also hollowing out his mind these days, knowing that the emperor is anxious about the river flood, and he does not dare to use those precious and rare ingredients in his meals, and he does not dare to go up the soup and water. The emperor remembered that his last meal should have been used in the afternoon, and he didn't know what time it was in the afternoon, and he couldn't remember what he ate.

Shainin understood at a glance.

"The concubine prepared a supper here, and she didn't eat anything at dinner, so she happened to use it with the emperor."

The emperor felt a little hungry at this time, nodded and smiled and said, "Okay, I always can't lose my mouth when I come to you." ”

Xie Ning pursed his lips and smiled.

Waiting for the dinner to come, Xie Ning didn't move for a moment, just sat next to the emperor. The eldest prince and Princess Yuyao both asked people to come over, knowing that the emperor hadn't had dinner yet, so they didn't come over, for fear that they would disturb the emperor's meal when they came to talk.

The dining table was brought in, and the emperor served a small bowl of soup for Xie Ning: "You drink it, it will drive away the cold on a rainy day." ”

Xie Ning scooped a large spoonful of braised fish soup for the emperor and put it in a bowl. Pepper and vinegar are put in the fish soup, fresh and delicious, sour and hot in the unique smoothness of the fish, as for the fish bones, it is impossible to have, if the emperor is allowed to eat a thorn in the fish soup, no one in the dining room from the chief eunuch to the fire can escape the guilt.

The emperor ate a bite of fish soup, the hot fish soup and the steamed rice are a perfect match, swallow a mouthful of rice, from the tongue and stomach seem to be hot to wake up.

You can smell the aroma of the food, and you can feel the hunger and thirst and exhaustion of the body.

Xie Ning herself is actually not hungry, but the emperor eats deliciously, and she also uses a lot.

At this time, it is impossible to get any fat chickens and ducks, which makes people tired of unappetizing. In addition to the fish soup, there is also a very tender tofu, two plates of cold side dishes, and a soup. On such a somewhat sullen rainy night, such a dinner was very comfortable for the emperor.

When dinner was withdrawn, Xie Ning asked, "Ying Yan and Yu Yao both miss the emperor, ask them to come over for a cup of tea and say a few words?" It also saves them from worrying. ”

The emperor also misses the children.

The eldest prince and Princess Yuyao came over soon, it was raining, the eldest prince wore a cyan bamboo hat on his head when he arrived at the door, and Princess Yuyao was holding a paper umbrella painted with willows on the banks of the river with a plain gray face, and even the second prince was hugged by the nurse. He was already sleepy, his two fleshy fat hands rubbed his eyes and yawned, leaning next to the emperor and began to doze off.

The emperor looked at the other two children's complexions, saw that they were all good, and beckoned them to come close and sit down and talk.

He asked a few questions about the eldest prince's homework.

In fact, the emperor didn't want to ask his son about his homework, he wanted to ask more about whether the eldest prince was healthy in the past two days? Isn't it comfortable? But as soon as he looked at his complexion, he knew that Shainin took good care of both children.

As for the eldest prince, he is diligent and inquisitive, and he is happy when the emperor asks him about his homework, because this is his hobby, and it is also the only strength he can get his hands on now. He also wants to grow up quickly and share his father's worries, but now he can't do anything.

Xie Ning sat quietly and listened, and when he saw Princess Yuyao reaching out to get the cake from the plate, he motioned to Qinghe to take the plate away after Princess Yuyao took a piece.

It's almost bedtime, and I'm afraid of accumulating food when I eat, and the pastries are sweet, for fear that she will have bad teeth.

Princess Yuyao watched the plate being taken away, and regretted that she didn't take an extra piece just now.

Xie Ning listened to the questions and answers of the emperor and the eldest prince. The emperor's demeanor was very kind and gentle, and the eldest prince's eyes were shining, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

Xie Ning understood that what the emperor cared about most was not the eldest prince's studies, and he asked these mainly not to test his son, but because the eldest prince was studious, and he wanted to prove himself to the emperor.

Wait for the emperor to talk to the eldest prince, and let Princess Yuyao come to speak closely.

Princess Yuyao has officially started studying in the past few days, and the date is chosen by Tai Shiling. The emperor asked her how she felt? Is it hard to study, and whether she likes what the master teaches her or not.

Princess Yuyao is very smart, but she is not very patient. She is very fast in literacy, and she used to have a solid foundation, but now the master who teaches her will be able to teach her.

It's that Princess Yuyao has no patience to write, but after Xie Ning and Fang Shanggong discussed, she also asked the master to assign her homework for writing every day, just to sharpen her temperament and ask her not to be so impatient and extreme.

"The master is fine." Princess Yuyao said: "It's just that people look cold. ”

In addition to the two Shang Gong in the palace, an old Hanlin bachelor, she also has a master who is that Yang Ruolin Yang Master.

Master Yang has been guarding the door for many years, even if his original temperament was not cold, now he has become cold. She is not smiling, she acts and speaks in a straightforward manner, and her clothes are exceptionally plain. The first time they met, Princess Yuyao also wanted to salute her master, so she bowed sideways and saluted the princess again. She wore a gray cardigan that day, with a dark begonia skirt underneath. Princess Yuyao didn't like this color and style, and looked like those monks.

Even if Princess Yuyao is very smart and can learn it, this Master Yang only said coldly that it was good, where is like Xie Niangniang, who smiles gently, and never hesitates to praise and praise.

"The master just has to be strict." The emperor said: "If the master talks to you with sincerity and fear, or a hippie smile, then you have lost the way of being a teacher, and you are not worthy of teaching." ”

Princess Yuyao originally had no intention of suering, although she didn't like this master, she didn't want to replace her. Anyway, she went over every morning, and she had a total of one hour of class in the morning, and there was time to rest and eat tea and snacks and play with her in the middle, and she didn't have much to talk about outside of class with the master.

The eldest prince and Princess Yuyao are also sensible, knowing that the emperor has been working hard for days, and they have all retired after speaking, so that the emperor can rest earlier. The second prince had already fallen asleep and was also carried out by the nurse.

There were only two people left in the palace, the emperor and Xie Ning.

Xie Ning took a wooden comb to disassemble the fine comb for the emperor.

The emperor was originally tense, but now she was slowly combed like this, and the comb teeth scraped the scalp, and the whole person slowly relaxed.

Shainin also said some trivial things.

These days are always rainy, and the clothes can't be dried, so the Qinghe women filled the iron with charcoal and ironed the clothes slowly.

"As a result, when I was doing my work, I was distracted, and Qingmei burned a skirt of Shaining, so frightened that she couldn't kneel down for a long time, and kowtowed to excuse herself."

The emperor smiled, closed his eyes, and held Xie Ning's hand that did not hold a comb: "Which one is burned?" Don't feel sorry for things, I'll ask someone to make you a new one. ”

Xie Ning just smiled: "The concubine is sloppy now, I can't wait to comb my hair every day, I don't paint powder, and I don't wear new clothes, so let's wait for the next year to do it." ”

The emperor sighed, closed his eyes and leaned there.

Xie Ning combed for a while, and now the emperor fell asleep.

How tired he must be these days.

Xie Ning sat there, just looking at him like this, and felt extremely satisfied in his heart, more comfortable than taking the elixir.

If only she could help.

It's a pity that she has seen, experienced, and understood too little.

Even if the emperor told her what he was worried about, she would probably only be able to understand, let alone give the emperor any ideas.

Looking at the vertical lines in the middle of the emperor's eyebrows, Xie Ning really wanted to reach out and smooth him out.

The emperor came late, but left early in the morning. Shainin was awakened by the thunder outside, and she was the only one on the bed when she woke up.

The stomach gradually bulged, and Shainin's habits became more and more lazy.

She asked, "When did the emperor leave?" Was it raining heavily at that time? Did the emperor have breakfast? ”

Qinghe said: "When the emperor left, the rain was already tight, and breakfast was useless. When His Royal Highness the eldest prince left, the rain was not tight, Hu Rong followed to send it, and he said that as soon as His Royal Highness entered the study, the rain was heavy. ”

Xie Ning glanced at the sky outside, and was inevitably a little worried about the emperor.

She was worried about the emperor's body.

The rain was so heavy that it was very deserted everywhere, and most people huddled in their houses to hide from the rain. But there are also people who brave such heavy rain and quietly go out on errands.

Concubine Jin couldn't wait, Ma Shang Palace had actually been inquiring about the old affairs of Fang Shang Palace several days in advance. Although the palace has been searched over and over again, there are not many old people left, but in some places with horns, there are still some old people left.

The years that Marchandong has been in the palace are not shallow, and there are always a few acquaintances and relationships around the corner.

She arrived at the Cuihua Palace in the East Sixth Palace in the heavy rain, of course she did not want to enter the Cuihua Palace, but bypassed the palace wall and went to a courtyard at the back of the Cuihua Palace.
