A few days later, Ruyi and Hailan walked together, a lake on the back lake was new lotus tender green, the wind was cool like jade, and the winding water corridor was leisurely and turning, but it was not cool.

Hailan supported Ruyi to walk slowly, looked at Ruyi's figure and said, "Niangniang's body is more rounded." The concubine looked at the last child, but this one was a little round, I am afraid it is a princess. ”

Ruyi saw the maids following from afar, and laughed in a low voice: "I was a little cautious when I was born Yongxi, and I didn't dare to show what I wanted to eat, I only said that I would eat spicy." Now I really love spicy food, and even the small kitchen jokes that the pot for stir-frying for Hongu has become spicy. ”

Hailan carefully stroked Ruyi's stomach and smiled: "It's good to be a princess." The daughter is Eniang's intimate little padded jacket, and the concubine has always regretted that there is only one Yongqi under her knees, and when she leaves the palace in the future, the concubine will not even have a person to say intimate words. ”

Ruyi looked at the blue waves on the lake, the lotus boat rippling, the emerald lotus leaves connected to the sky, the hibiscus reflected in the sun and the red color, the water waves rippled, folded out the Lingbo bloom, and the streamer turned a thousand times. The wind sends lotus ten miles of incense, and the singing of the palace people picking lotus lingers among the blue leaves and red lotus, and the vague singing is: "The lotus leaf Luo skirt is cut in one color, and the hibiscus is open to both sides of the face." I can't see it when I go into the pool, and when I hear the song, I feel that someone is coming......"

The singing rings swirl lightly, and when I heard it through the waves on the water, there was still a singing and three sighs, knocking on the crystal and breaking the jade. She knew that it was Yuyan's new idea, which was very much in line with the emperor's wishes.

Such a twenty-eight-year-old girl sings like a bead of voice, which is very moving. Ruyi is a little gloomy, who knows what the fate of the girl who is singing happily at this moment will be in the future?

Her hand stroking her stomach was a little sluggish, and she sighed gloomily: "What about the real princess? Look at the princess born to the Queen Mother, and she is still so ......"

Hailan looked around, and hurriedly covered her mouth: "Don't say bad things about Niangniang." ”

Ruyi lowered her eyes gloomily: "This palace is just a cold lip and a cold tooth, and a rabbit and a fox are sad." ”

Hailan was also a little sad when she heard this, so she asked, "Is the matter of Princess Duanshu's remarriage decided?" ”

Ruyi said: "It's a foregone conclusion." The emperor has decreed that Dzungartai Jidawazi will be the prince and marry the eldest princess Duanshu Gulun on September 12, and now the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs are already busy. ”

Hailan bowed slightly: "No matter how busy you are, it is quiet, there has never been a princess remarrying in the Qing Dynasty, and in the end, it is also a matter of face." The princess's wedding this time is not as good as the scenery last time. ”

"The princess married far away last time, just when the first emperor was dying, and they were in a hurry together, where can they be more decent. This time, he married his own husband-killing enemy. I heard that the emperor has given the princess a secret decree, asking her to put all state affairs first and not to have the idea of suicide. ”

Hailan lowered her voice more and more: "The princess is the queen mother's constraint outside, and the queen mother is even more worried about the princess inside, and they miss each other, and in the end they can only fulfill the emperor's wishes." ”

Ruyi's bright and full expression gradually lost its brilliance: "Princess Duanshu is like this, and so is Princess Hejing, who was born to Empress Xiaoxian, what else can other princesses do?" It's just that he was born in the emperor's family, and everything is helpless. ”

Hailan was silently sad, and didn't know how to answer, so she only pinched a lotus leaf and broke it silently, watching her crescent-shaped nail prints choke the lotus leaf messy.

Just as he was groaning, he saw Sanbao hurrying up, and said to Qian'er: "Queen Niangniang, Concubine Yu, Concubine Shu is there, ......"

Ruyi suddenly turned around and asked, "Is it the tenth elder brother......?"

Sambo bowed his head and said, "Yes." Ten elder brothers are unfortunate and have passed away. ”

Ruyi and Hailan glanced at each other, only to feel a throbbing pain in their hearts, that child, the child who had not yet had time to choose a name, was young, soft, and so pale, and went like this. She didn't dare to imagine how sad Yi Huan would be, in the days when Brother Ten was sick, Yi Huan's eyes had become two springs of water, and tears flowed endlessly, as if those tears would never end.

Ruyi couldn't help but walk back, and Sanbao was so anxious that she desperately crawled in front of her and kowtowed: "Queen Mother, you can't go, you can't go!" ”

Ruyi shouted: "Get up!" ”

Hailan hurriedly helped Ruyi, stepped up her strength in her hands, grabbed Ruyi and said, "Niangniang! It's impossible to go! You're pregnant and about to give birth. You can't set foot in the place of mourning and sorrow! ”

Ruyi struggled to prop up her waist and said in a straight voice: "This palace is the queen, and all evil delusions will not reach the body of this palace." If the palace is not afraid, the children of the palace will naturally not be afraid! ”

When Ruyi and Hailan arrived at the spring rain, the palace people had already retreated outside the courtyard and began to decorate the palace that had lost its young life with white cloth.

Ruyi quietly walked into the dormitory, only to see Yi Huan wearing a begon-colored dark satin with a large trimmed yarn, a handful of green silk with plain gold hollow flat square held high, sparsely embellished with a few green jade beads, dressed very refreshing and neat, without the slightest sadness. Ruyi was surprised and approached quietly, but saw Yihuan sitting quietly by the child's cradle, holding her hands in front of her chest, tightly holding a magenta satin seeded embroidered swaddling clothes, and humming softly in her mouth: "The wind blows, the thunder beats the drum, and the pine trees dance with the birch trees." Haha with a bow and arrows, hunting into the valley, yo yo hoo, hunting is not afraid of hardship. Cross the snow ridge, climb the ice lake, and hide in the tiger must pass through. Draw your bow and shoot arrows, yo yo hoo, get rid of the obstacles......"

She hummed softly, with a hint of kindness in her voice, a gentle smile that Ruyi had never seen before gently spread on her lips like ripples, and one hand stroked the pale and bloodless face of the child in her arms.

Ruyi looked at her, her heart was like a thin piece of porcelain, and the cracks gradually spread on it. She glanced back at Hailan, who approached and smiled softly and coaxed, "Good sister, you are also tired of hugging." I'll hug Brother Ten for you. ”

Yi Huan raised his head vigilantly, hugged the child tightly and shrank back, and looked at Ruyi and Hailan with a wary gaze.

Hailan said softly: "Are you tired of singing?" Are you thirsty? She poured a cup of hot tea from the table and beckoned, "Come and drink saliva, otherwise your voice will be hoarse, and it won't sound good." Brother Ten won't like it. ”

Yi Huan looked at the child in his arms with infinite affection, and said gently: "Brother Ten won't like it?" ”

Hailan smiled gently and said affectionately: "Isn't it? Brother Ten likes to listen to you sing, wait for my fifth brother to come too, okay? ”

Yi Huan let go slightly, not knowing whether to let go of the child in his arms. Ruyi coaxed angrily: "You go drink water, the child's swaddling clothes should be changed!" Bengong knows that you don't like others to touch Brother Shi, come on. You're relieved, aren't you? ”

Yi Huan hesitated for a moment, carefully put the child in Ruyi's arms, touched the child's face lovingly, and smiled as warm as the most intimate brocade in winter. She said softly: "E-niang go drink saliva and come back immediately." Don't be afraid, good boy! ”

The moment Yi Huan's hands were released, Ruyi touched the child's face, which was cold, without a trace of vitality, and even a little stiff. Ruyi's heart was sour, and tears couldn't help but slide down. How dare she show Yi Huan, she hurriedly turned her back and wiped it away.

Yi Huan hurriedly drank the water, only staring at the child in Ruyi's arms, and couldn't wait to reach out to hug it back. She said urgently: "My child only wants me to hold it, give it to me." ”

Seeing her like this, Ruyi didn't seem to know that the child had already died, so she had to say softly: "Yihuan, you are tired." Hongu will hold you for a while. ”

The love on Yi Huan's face suddenly disappeared, like an alert she-wolf, staring at Ruyi fiercely and said, "What are you going to do?" What are you going to do to rob my child? ”

Hailan couldn't help but wipe away her tears and said, "Concubine Shu, the tenth elder brother has passed. You ......"

Before she could finish speaking, Yi Huan grabbed Ruyi hard, rushed forward and snatched the child from Ruyi's arms and hugged him tightly, and put his face on his little face that had completely lost its temperature. Her expression was immediately gentle, and her gentle and sweet smile was like a butterfly flying from among the flowers, swimming between her green eyebrows. She continued to hum softly, looking back and smiling: "Be quiet, Brother Ten is asleep, he doesn't like others arguing for him to sleep." ”

Hailan looked at Ruyi, with a touch of sourness, and said softly: "Sister Shufei is afraid that she is so sad that she is delirious." She turned worried, "How can this be good?" ”

The twilight gradually brushes the glazed blue tiles of the palace with a gentle attitude, and the light gold light like a waterfall flows. The wind through the heavy gauze curtains was extremely gentle, gently plucking a nine-turn golden branch on the sideburns of Ruyi, and the crystal beads hanging down swayed brightly. There are a few faint and sweet floral fragrances in the wind, and when you smell them carefully, they are actually the smell of Tu, so elegant that people feel that their whole body is melted in such a gentle wind.

Obviously it is such a warm sunset courtyard, Ruyi somehow, suddenly remembered a day many years ago, as if it was still the day when Yi Huan first accepted his favor. One day, when the green window screen was bright and the moon was clear, I saw her independent light moon and breeze, and watched her Xiangluan makeup, embroidered her flower shirt, and gently sang the words of unknown people. The tactful verses are clearly in my heart at this moment, "light smoke and rain are cold and dusk, scattered flowers, and spring marks are damaged."

Today's afterglow is slanting, but it is not a light smoke and rain and cold dusk, and it is a flower affair when it is gone.
