Hongyan was still holding a sewing basket in her hand, and when the emperor was talking to her, she couldn't help but hide her things back, and then she thought of her stupid movements before and after, knelt down, and said to the queen guiltily: "It's all slaves and maids who are not good, Niangniang, it's all slaves and maids who are careless." ”

The queen knew why Hongyan blamed herself, but she didn't have to care about it at all, and said with a smile: "How wise the emperor is, I have loved pen and ink since I was a child, and I have never worked needles and horses, where can I make such a good thing for a while." It's just the mind, and for him, the mind is much more than the real effort. ”

Hongyan was new to the world and didn't understand the way of husband and wife, but she raised her head timidly and saw the smile in the queen's eyes, so she was a little relieved. But Leng Buding remembered the emperor's words, so he asked again: "The emperor said that the slave and maid do not have to hide in the future, and the mother will have something to tell the slave and maid." ”

The queen motioned for her to get up, took the insoles in her hand and looked at them, with the warmth of husband and wife hanging in the corners of her eyes, "In the end, it is also a crime of bullying the king, and it cannot be punished." In the future, if the emperor likes to use it, you will do it, but now I want to make a pair for him with my own hands to make up for my deception. Hongyan, you come to teach me. ”

Hongyan's heart was completely let go, and she wanted to spread the needlework, but the queen was lazy: "Another day, I'm tired today, you don't know how hard it is to accompany the Queen Mother all morning, if she is not happy, the entire Forbidden City is not happy." ”

These words finally returned to the original thing, and every time Hongyan saw the queen say these words to herself, intentionally or unintentionally, which must not be heard by outsiders, the tone and demeanor were different from usual, although it was like the pure color of washing away the lead, but when Hongyan heard and saw it, her heart was empty, and she couldn't say it.

On that day, even though the emperor came to Chuxiu Palace in the evening and rewarded the concubine for a few days, the concubine was seriously ill after all, and the emperor could not stay in Chuxiu Palace when she was sick, and no amount of saints could comfort her frightened soul.

Hai Guiren had the heart to come to take care of her, but the Queen Mother was stumbling in the Ningshou Palace, and the Queen Mother even did not hesitate to say: "She is sad and sad all day long, and I am upset when I see her." ”

In the face of the queen mother's anger, Hai Guiren did not dare to defend the concubine, in the end, she was soft-spoken and said the wrong thing, but wanted to hate the concubine.

In the blink of an eye, March is coming, the Forbidden City is already full of spring, but the concubine has been haunted by the sick bed for a long time and has never seen a good time.

On this day, Hongyan was ordered to send the queen's reward, and it happened that the white pear of Qixiang Palace arrived first, and the people of Chuxiu Palace wanted to invite Hongyan to go in directly, Hongyan was polite: "I'll wait here, Aunt Baili will be fine for a while." ”

She was standing outside the door, but I don't know if the people in the door didn't know that there were people outside, or if they spoke without scruples, Hongyan heard Bai Li say: "The noble man serves the Queen Mother, and he really can't leave, the noble man said, the Queen Mother has long forgotten the events of that day, you must stop blaming yourself, and take care of your body." When you are free, you will come to visit you immediately. ”

Hongyan couldn't help but look up and down the Chuxiu Palace, this is the palace of the noble concubine, although it is magnificent, but as soon as she enters the door, she feels deserted, as if no one comes, compared to the Changchun Palace when the second elder brother died, it is a little more desolate.

Looking around slowly, she suddenly found a person standing two or three steps behind her, the dazzling bright yellow spring satin, ironed against the slender body, red face and weak legs, but the emperor frowned at her, she had to continue to stand upright.

A very light concubine's words came from the door: "I know, the queen mother doesn't like me, your master, just coaxing me." ”
