239 The fire is rising

Although Fang Shanggong didn't say anything, and Li Zhiling was as abnormal as when he asked for peace just now, Xie Ning still had some associations. Bayi ≧>≥ Network ≦<<.<8<1

She remembered the previous time when she was pregnant, and she didn't seem to be in good spirits at that time.

In addition, the menstrual period was many days late, and he sent away Li Zhizhi, and when Xie Ning sat there by himself, his hand couldn't help but lightly cover his lower abdomen.

She, is she having another child?

Possibly, yes.

Li Zhiling and Fang Shanggong Zhun Bao both guessed something, otherwise Fang Shanggong wouldn't have rushed to let Li Zhiling come over to ask for a pulse, right?

Shainin bit his lip, but still couldn't hold back his laughter.

Although the process of conceiving a child is difficult, when she was born, she stepped into the ghost gate with one foot.

But even so, she was happy.

She couldn't help but wonder if the baby in her womb would be a boy or a girl this time.

If it's a boy, then there are already two older brothers in front of him. If it's a girl, then there are already two sisters in front of her.

The boys are good, and the girls are good.

If it is a little prince, then at the age of six or seven, she will leave her and move out to live alone, but at least there is a brother as a companion and can take care of each other.

If it's a princess, you should be able to stay with her for a longer time. But when the daughter grows up, she will eventually get married, and it will not be easy to see each other when the time comes.

Xie Ning was shocked to realize that he had already thought about what would happen so long ago, and hurriedly pulled back the thoughts that Xinma had run away from the reins.

The emperor asked people to send all the river maps of the past few years, but I am afraid that I will have to stay up late tonight.

Do you want to wait for him to come back? Xie Ning really wanted to tell him the news quickly.

Qinghe combed her hair for her, and gently passed her head one by one. Looking at Xie Ning's smile reflected in the bronze mirror, Qinghe asked softly, "What good things did the master think of?" ”

Xie Ning pursed his lips and said with a smile: "I won't tell you." ”

Qinghe said: "The master can guess without saying that the slave and maid." Seeing the master smiling so happily, is it a good thing to be allowed to be sure? ”

Was she smiling happily?

Xie Ning looked at himself in the bronze mirror, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and the corners of his mouth kept upturning, looking like he was happy.

The nurse hugged the second prince. The two fleshy hands of the second prince were rubbing their eyes, obviously sleepy. Xie Ning took him from his nurse's hand, hugged him and patted him softly, humming a song to lull him to sleep.

The second prince is very good at this, and he never sleeps. If you say you sleep, you can fall asleep in the blink of an eye. I heard that Princess Yujun used to cry every time she had to sleep, Xie Ning just wanted to thank God, fortunately, the three children in Yong'an Palace did not have this problem.

The second prince's face was flushed, a chubby little hand was raised to his ear with a fist, and his legs were crossed, this posture was really not good-looking.

But Shainin felt that there was no more lovely child in the world than him, even if he sat on the side and watched him sleep, Shainin felt peaceful and happy in his heart, and he was particularly satisfied.

Sometimes he looks like the emperor everywhere, and sometimes he feels like himself. When he laughed, when he frowned, and even sometimes when he showed a willful and stubborn expression, Xie Ning felt that he could see his own shadow in the child.

When the second prince fell asleep, Xie Ning motioned to the nurse to take him out and place him.

The emperor has not returned.

Halfway through the second watch, the emperor still hasn't come back.

Xie Ning was always afraid that the emperor's hard work would burn down his body early. But there is always so much to do, and it can never be done.

She wanted to wait for the emperor to come back and tell him the good news, but her spirit was really not as good as before, listening to the sound of regular undulating waves, Xie Ning's eyelids were heavy as if they were smeared with glue, and she couldn't open them.

She thought in a daze, it was not too late to tell the emperor tomorrow morning.

The emperor must be happy too, right? I don't know if the emperor likes to add another little prince, or does he like to add another little princess?

Fang Shanggong felt shallow, and he couldn't sleep well on the boat. The hull of the boat was slightly undulating, and she felt as if she was about to tumble out of bed.

Today, because I have good news in my heart, it is like carrying a rabbit that keeps jumping, and it is difficult to fall asleep after turning and turning.

Time flies.

She suddenly remembered what happened when she was a child.

Decades later, many things are not well remembered.

In the days before entering the palace, the appearance of the family...... Like broken dreams, they are neither clear nor complete.

But she still remembers the situation when she entered the palace. It seemed to be spring, and she only had a thick jacket and no change of clothes. In the morning, I felt cold when I wore just one piece, but at noon, when the sun was shining directly on my body, I was sweating on my hot ends.

But she couldn't take it off. When I took it off, there was only a small coat inside, which was already small and ill-fitting, and there were patches on it.

After entering the palace, they all received the same jackets. The jacket was made of old cloth that had been stored in the library for a long time, and the color had faded, but she felt that the jacket was soft and snuggling. The thickness is moderate, and it is especially cherished when you wear it.

Afterward...... Later, she gradually gained knowledge, recognized more people, and saw more of the world.

By the way, she also got to know Li Zhiling.

At that time, of course, he was not the current Master Li, but he was just the lowest-ranking petty official of the Imperial Medical Department, and it was not his turn to treat the nobles.

After so many years, she is old, and he is old.

Fang Shanggong was vaguely drowsy, the hull of the ship might have touched something, and she was slightly shocked, and such a slight jolt made her wake up again.

There was still a charcoal basin in the cabin, and I felt thirsty in my throat. Fang Shanggong got up with a faint light, poured himself saliva and drank it and lay down again.

It's really not early, and if you don't sleep Ming'er is afraid that you won't be able to get up, how can you serve your master?

In a trance, she heard someone urging in her ear again.

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late.

What is too late?

She was anxious, but she couldn't hear or see clearly, she couldn't grasp anything in her hands, her chest was tight, and she couldn't breathe.

Fang Shanggong woke up from his dream.

The darkness around her gradually brought her back to her senses.

Not really, it's just a dream.

Those are not true.

Her nightmare is long gone.

But just then she heard a voice shouting, "It's on fire!" ”

Fang Shanggong thought it was his hallucination, thinking that he still had the scene in his dream firmly in his heart, and he would hear such a voice in his ears.

But the shout sounded again, louder and more rapid than the previous one: "There is a fire!" Escort! Hurry up! ”

Not an illusion!

Fang Shanggong grabbed the clothes at the head of the bed and put them on, got out of bed in three steps and two steps, and pushed open the window.

It wasn't the voice of her boat, it was coming from the boat ahead.

She saw people running in panic, and she saw fires rising.

She was not the only one who was awakened, and many of those who had fallen asleep had already woken up.

Not only the royal boat, but also the two neighboring boats were in chaos.

Fang Shanggong calmed down, lowered his head, fastened the placket quickly and steadily, and called someone over and ordered: "Don't panic, the boat is carrying fire-fighting things, and the imperial boat will not have an accident." Tell the people on our ship not to move around, let alone to disturb people's hearts with nonsense. If anyone dares to disobey the order, they will be tied up first and then dropped. ”

How can a good one catch fire?

Fang Shanggong's heart was far from being as calm as she seemed on the surface.

The emperor, the concubine, Princess Yuyao and the second prince are all on the imperial boat. The second prince is so small, and the master of the noble concubine can't afford to toss it now. Was the fire accidental or man-made?

Fang Shanggong looked around, but except for the fleet of imperial drivers, the shore and the river in the distance were all as black as ink, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

No, she can't just stay here, she's got to go on the boat.

Xie Ning slept very deeply, and the movement outside did not wake her up.

Until there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the door, Xie Ning heard someone call her in her ear: "Master, master, wake up." ”

She opened her eyes, and for a moment she couldn't remember where she was.

"Master, there's a fire on the ship."

On fire?

Qinghe hurriedly grabbed his clothes and put them on Xie Ning's body, and it was only halfway through, and Bai Hongqi's apprentice Xiao Ye also arrived outside the cabin. He didn't dare to go straight into the cabin, and asked through the door: "Is the concubine awake?" The emperor sent his servants to guard the mother. ”

Xie Ning was completely awake at this time, and asked while cleaning himself up, "Where is the fire?" Where is the emperor? What about the princess and the second prince? ”

"The emperor is all right there, the fire is from the bottom of the bilge, the fire is not big, but the bottom of the boat is already leaking, so I have to turn to the next boat first. The princess and the second prince have already been arranged to take care of it, and please rest assured. ”

As he spoke, Xie Ning had already put on his cloak and shoes, and came out of the cabin. On a spring night, there was wind on the river, and as soon as Xie Ning came out, he smelled a scorching and choking smell, and he couldn't help coughing when he was washed.

Xiao Ye led two guards to escort Xie Ning to the next floor. Princess Yuyao, who was called from her sleep, was carried by the eunuch, and the second prince was held tightly by the nurse, eagerly following behind.
