Cherry knew that the master was uncomfortable, and when she saw this situation, she was naturally even more uncomfortable. She doesn't know if there is a tacit understanding between the emperor and the master, at least the concubine has been beautiful for a while, and the emperor has not come to Yanxi Palace much, and the master is waiting for childbirth, and he sleeps more during the day than before.

She hugged Hongyan and said softly, "Niangniang, let's go back." ”

After Hongyan returned to Yanxi Palace, she didn't talk much, Buddha came to accompany her for a long time, and saw that she was in a bad mood and couldn't do anything, so she quietly went to find Concubine Shu, and when Concubine Shu came in the evening, she met Concubine Xin coming back from the front, as if she was coming from the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, and she was also sitting high on her shoulder. However, since she saw Concubine Shu, she naturally came down immediately to salute, but Concubine Shu said lukewarmly: "Since it is a gift from the emperor, you don't have to be polite." ”

She is not a mean person, but she will always have a pantothenic heart, and only when she saw Hongyan did she say: "The emperor might as well match her with another canopy, the sky is going to be hot in the blink of an eye, is it possible to sit on her shoulders and expose herself to the sun under the poisonous sun?" ”

But after saying that, he returned to the topic, and asked Hongyan seriously: "What's wrong with you?" Buddha is very worried about you, let me see, are you sad for those children? ”

Hongyan's belly was already slightly bulging, and she said: "I hope that she is a girl and can grow up carefree in the future, I will be more competitive and let her stay in the capital, but if she is a prince, she will have more things to worry about." Originally, it was nothing to worry about, it was always his own child, but you look at the fourth elder brother, who lives so carefully, it is his father, but he is afraid like a wolf and a tiger. I know that this is the helplessness of the heavenly family, but is there really no flesh and blood affection? ”

"Don't just say these words in front of you, how does the emperor love Buddha, do you want me to say it?" Concubine Shu persuaded, "As for the fourth elder brother to be cautious, when we were the prince, weren't we cautious?" The third elder brother of the first emperor, but he was expelled from the clan, and then when he went up to Kangxi, the eldest son was banned by the abolished prince, what was the matter? It's not that our emperor is too cruel to his children, the emperors of all dynasties have been like this, and they themselves have come over like this. ”

Hongyan looked at Concubine Shu and said, "When will my sister be so transparent?" ”

Concubine Shu smiled, nodded her red forehead and said, "Can't you not see through me?" ”

It turned out that Concubine Shu complained to Ruyin, who came to visit her in the palace, one day, saying that she regretted adopting the eleventh elder brother, although she had the intention of being a good mother and son, but she was worried that the eleventh elder brother would not be able to grow up as she thought in the future. Ruyin persuaded her, saying that the princes and princesses, even if they were the Buddhas under the knees, were all the emperor's children, and they were all the children of other women, and they had nothing to do with them, and it was moral to take care of them with heart and affection, and they had no obligation or responsibility to take care of those children. If the eleventh elder brother becomes a different person in the future, Concubine Shu can let it go, and her responsibilities and intentions have been fulfilled, which is enough.

Concubine Shu said: "I also figured it out, if the eleventh elder brother dislikes me in the future, I won't be unhappy." Originally, I didn't have any ability, so I couldn't allow him anything in the future, the child wanted to go to a high place, and I couldn't stop it? ”

Hongyan was silent, Concubine Shu touched her belly and said, "But I know that your son is flesh and blood, where can you say let go like us, but you know that you can have a son?" How do you think it's so beautiful? ”

Hongyan sneered, turned his face and said: "Buddha can't ask for anything, please come and comfort me, it's good if you don't get angry with me." ”

Before the words fell, Cherry rushed into the door, and didn't care that Concubine Shu was on the side, so she said happily: "Manager Wu sent someone to pass the word, long live the Lord come over for dinner at night." ”

Concubine Shu tsk: "You see, eighty percent is for the sake of Concubine Xin, come to compensate you, I made a bet with Sister Yufei, the emperor will definitely give you an explanation, you are ready to take over, I will ask Sister Yufei to collect money." ”

Hongyan pulled her and said, "Sister stay with me, anyway, he's here to eat, and I can't keep him here." ”

Concubine Shu shook off her hand and said, "I'm hungry, looking at the emperor, I'm blind and have a good appetite." He pinched Hongyan's face again and said, "Don't be hypocritical, you don't want to see him?" ”

Cherry happily sent Concubine Shu out, took the palace maid to set the table, urged the small kitchen to cook the emperor's favorite dishes, and when Hongyan changed her clothes, she was almost ready outside. But when the smell of vegetables wafted from the small kitchen, it was time for the emperor to come to Yanxi Palace, but he suddenly said that the emperor had important business to come, and he disappointed the wishes of the people in Yanxi Palace. ”

Niangniang stayed alone in the house, the palace maids divided the prepared meals, Xiao Lingzi took the lion's head that cherries love to eat to her, and was scolded by Cherry: "You still have an appetite to eat?" Why don't you go outside and take a look, to see if the emperor has gone to the Chengqian Palace, or is the concubine Xin Niangniang sitting on her shoulders and going to the Heart Palace? ”

These words were heard by Hongyan in the room through a window, and she wanted to stop Xiao Lingzi out of her voice, but she didn't have time, so she simply didn't care. It is undeniable that the heart that has been watching calmly for a long time is finally a little unbearable, but she is afraid that she will not hold back, but she will live up to Hongli's trust in herself, they should have a heart, right? But God knows what the emperor is thinking in his heart now, no matter how much trust he has, he can't stand the temper of time.

Xiao Lingzi went, he didn't come back for most of the day, but Cherry felt sorry for him, took the hand stove out, saw Xiao Lingzi standing at the intersection with his hands and feet, and sighed: "Go back, it's still very cold at night, you freeze out of the problem, the master should scold me." ”

But as he was talking, there were sparks lit up in the distance, and Xiao Lingzi was about to go up to see it, but Cherry grabbed him and said: "Let's take a look, in case the emperor goes to Chengqian Palace, what is it for us to stop here, that is, the emperor has changed his mind to see the master, and it will be too embarrassing to spread it tomorrow." Tomorrow is a good day for the fourth elder brother, don't let people murmur about our master. ”

The two of them stood under the wall, the fire was getting closer and closer, and sure enough, it was the emperor's warm sedan chair coming, so two big living people stood on the side of the road, and the people around the emperor had already seen it, and when the saint arrived in front of him, it was really not to go to Chengqian Palace, Xiao Lingzi and Cherry were overjoyed, and were busy going to tell the master, but they were called down by Mr. Wu and scolded: "You are also people with a head and face, what are you doing with such frizziness, you are not by the side of the mother so late, you are sneaky outside, what does it look like?" ”

While speaking, the emperor had already gotten off the warm sedan chair, and Cherry took the opportunity to hand the hand stove to Xiao Lingzi to the emperor, Hongli smiled: "What God, still use the hand stove?" ”

Cherry hurriedly said: "Spring covers autumn frost, Niangniang said, you must serve the emperor well." ”

Hongli asked, "I can't say I'm coming, why are you still waiting?" ”

Cherry eyes rolled slightly, and whispered: "Long live the lord, the mother is looking forward to your coming, the slave maid is here to wait, thinking that you will definitely come." ”

Hongli returned the hand stove stopper to her, and went all the way to the door, muttering, "I will come naturally." ”

Here, Hongyan gradually felt lonely in the room, and she was not so sentimental, so she wanted Cherry to come in and talk, and shouted twice and no one answered, when she was a little irritable, she saw the emperor coming in from behind the screen, and said with a smile: "What do you want her to do, I will do it for you." ”

Hongyan's heart was hot, knowing that the emperor didn't come to eat, he really couldn't get out, so he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "I feel bored in my heart, and I want to find someone to talk to." ”

Hongli sat down beside her: "I will accompany you." ”

Hongyan looked at him deeply and said, "The concubine thinks ...... You just want Concubine Xin to accompany you. ”

Hongli tapped lightly on her forehead: "Which one you eat, you won't pick her, I treat her just for outsiders." Since you have done it, you have to do it more seriously, I think you can understand it in your heart. She is beautiful these days, but I am not happy, compared to her, it is not as good as Ying Concubine Bai and the nobles, they are more refreshing. ”

Hongyan said: "There is a common man, but the emperor gave his concubines a delicate heart, so that he can guess what you think in your heart." ”

The emperor knows Hongyan's personality, she occasionally is so pretentious, but she is unhappy in her heart, every time her eyes are soft, her voice is soft, and her breath is also soft.

"I miss you." Hongyan let out a light voice and fell into the emperor's arms.

"I know." Hongli responded softly, "Let's be good, I'll accompany you like this." ”

The next day, it was the wedding of the fourth elder brother, Hongyan and the emperor said what was in her heart in the middle of the night, and slept peacefully for half the night, today she looked very good, she was willing to share the wedding wine of the fourth elder brother, and the people who had been living in Yanxi Palace attended the wedding banquet.

But she just sat in the banquet with Concubine Shu ordinarily, recalling the spacious seats that the Queen Mother deliberately arranged for her when Concubine Xin was pregnant, but now the Queen Mother ignored Concubine Ling, and the intimacy here was all in front of her.

Halfway through the banquet, Hongyan was asked by the emperor to go back to rest, and she couldn't see the excitement later, but the left was just opera drum music, and there was nothing new, and from time to time there would be concubines leaving the table to go out to breathe.

At this time, Concubine Xin withdrew to make up her makeup, because she has been favored recently, someone will always come to stammer, she drank a few more glasses of joy for a while, her face was crimson, and she took Huiyun to re-powder, before she wanted to return to the banquet, but she met the sixth elder brother waiting on the side of the road, as if she deliberately came to see her.

Concubine Xin felt uncomfortable, and when the sixth elder brother stepped forward, she said, "Sixth elder brother, there are many people here, and we are not suitable for meeting." ”

The sixth elder brother said: "It's just that there are many people who are generous, isn't it?" Concubine Xin, I'm here to congratulate you, and you've been liked by Huang Ama again. ”
