In the dormitory of the Empress Dowager, there is a rotten smell peculiar to people who have been sick for a long time, this smell is very special, and no amount of good spices can hide it, or so to speak, the smell of imminent death.

When Ji Hui walked into the main hall, the Empress Dowager was lying on her back on the bed looking at the top of the tent in a daze, causing her to kneel down and worship for a long time, but she couldn't get up. Fu Zifei hated her, wished she knelt for a while, and deliberately didn't remind the Empress Dowager, but Mulberry liked her more, and kindly reminded the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager was shocked and set her eyes on Ji Hui: "You are here, get up, come and sit." ”

"Here we are." Ji Hui got up generously, walked to the Empress Dowager's bed and sat down on her feet, and said gently: "What song do you want to listen to today?" ”

The Empress Dowager shook her head: "I don't want to listen to the tune, I want to find someone to talk to." Queen, you step down first. ”

Fu Zifei smiled like a flower, clenched his hands into fists in his sleeves, gritted his teeth and retreated. Why! Why! She has always been the person who has accompanied the Empress Dowager, she has walked into the quagmire and can never turn back, but when the Empress Dowager wants to find someone to talk to and relax, that person is not her! What's the good when that person isn't her!

Ji Hui didn't notice Fu Zifei's resentment, she asked the Empress Dowager gently, "What do you want to say?" ”

The Empress Dowager was silent for a long time before she asked her softly: "Why do I love the princess regent the most, but everything I can give, I have given her, I have never been willing to hurt her fingers, and I am reluctant to say a few more words, because of her, I have never done anything to her children." But why did she betray me? Yu Wenchu, is it really that attractive? ”

Ji Hui's eyes were a little melancholy: "It's not the mother's fault, nor is it the princess regent's fault, it's that you have taken different paths, and you are destined not to come together." ”

The Empress Dowager smiled bitterly: "You also like the regent, right?" ”

Ji Hui was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice: "The regent is in the prime of life, in his prime, in a high position, strategic, and kind-hearted, and is the spring boudoir dream of many women. But no one is as blessed as the princess regent, he only loves her alone. ”

The Empress Dowager smiled disapprerovingly: "Men, when you need and like it, you have to do it, and when you get everything you want in the future, you should be greedy enough, but people who are used to enjoying exclusive favors, where can they endure it?" Once you can't stand it, you will either die or live, what does it mean to love her alone. ”

Ji Hui was silent.

The Empress Dowager sighed: "I originally wanted to marry you to Shen Ruilin, but Princess Funing fell in love with him, and Concubine Min stared at me all day long, if I forcibly matched, it would hurt you." You've delayed your youth by staying here, so you might as well go back to the Northlands. ”

Ji Hui nervously grabbed the handkerchief, and said after a while: "Niangniang is right." It's just that now that the war is raging, the people in my hometown don't know that the folk girl is here, and all the people who report to the outside world are that the folk girl is sick and dead, if the folk girl goes back, I'm afraid that it will bring trouble to them. If the mother doesn't like the people to live here, I implore the mother to let the people out of the palace, and the people will find a small house to live in, and they will definitely not add to the chaos. ”

"You misunderstood me, you are polite, versatile, gentle and lovely, I am glad that you are too late, how can I want to kick you out? I mean, there is going to be chaos in Beijing, and I won't live long. In a few days, the regent will have to go back with the team. Although the road will be hard and inconvenient, it is better than dying in this capital for no reason. This is my advice to you, even if it is to thank you for being with you all these days. When the Empress Dowager said this, she was very stunned: "No matter how good the fairy township is, it is not a hometown." ”

Ji Hui bit her lip and asked softly, "I have never been an enemy of anyone, and I don't dare to be delusional, who wants to kill me?" ”

The Empress Dowager smiled meaningfully: "What do you think?" ”

Ji Hui remembered Mingzhu, but she quickly shook her head again, she hadn't done anything that Mingzhu didn't deal with, Mingzhu had no reason to kill her, not to mention that the princess regent had clear eyes and was calm and upright, so she didn't look like someone who would secretly attack her. On the contrary, it is the old lady in front of her, unfathomable and changeable.

The Empress Dowager chuckled a few times: "What a cute and innocent child, you shake your head because you think that the princess regent is not your enemy, right?" You guessed it, Mingzhu is not such a person. But just because she doesn't kill you doesn't mean that others don't want your life. Do you feel that you are well-behaved every day, never make mistakes, never offend anyone, and never have a bad relationship with anyone? No, it's not so simple in this palace, sometimes, if you want a person's life, it may just be because you don't like that person. ”

Ji Hui said in a panic: "Ask Niangniang for advice." ”

"My advice is to go back wherever you came from." The Empress Dowager motioned for her to step down: "This is the last reward I can give you." I like clean and nice things and people, you give me a nice feeling. ”

Ji Hui's face was flushed, and she walked out like a wandering spirit, and she didn't even see Fu Zifei standing in the corner not far away waving to her. Seeing her lost soul, the nurse Xiao was frightened, hurriedly sent the palace people, pushed her to sit down, hugged her and asked repeatedly: "Good girl, what's wrong with you?" ”

Ji Hui hugged Xiao Nanniang's thick and warm waist and cried in a low voice, Xiao Nanniang also scared her and cried, and asked her desperately, but she just shook her head desperately.

Outside the door, a palace man listened sideways for a long time and quietly retreated. Fu Zifei stood in the shade of a tree not far away and waited for her, heard her say about Ji Hui's situation, and smiled coldly: "The dead girl's mouth is still quite tight, you go back, observe carefully, and report it as soon as you find something wrong." ”

Not long after the palace people left quickly, someone told Mulberry about the situation here, and Mulberry calmly told the Empress Dowager about it, and the Empress Dowager said expressionlessly: "It's time to play the fourth move, this is my last blow, you know what to do." ”

Mulberry nodded silently and turned to go outside.

Ji Hui was lying on the bed, and Xiao Nanniang took a fan and held her slowly: "Girl, sleep, sleep, just sleep, I don't like it here, I'm not happy to live here, then let's bring a letter back to the master and ask him to send someone to pick it up." He feels so sorry for you, he will definitely not let you be wronged. ”

Ji Hui turned over to the wall, the panic and fear on her face were long gone, replaced by calm and composed, she said in a low voice: "Mama, do you remember?" When I was five years old, one day you suddenly couldn't find me, and you scared you to tears. ”
