237 Sleepy eyes (four watches.)
"I don't know about the family, but I feel sorry for you." Hongli said and walked a few steps towards Hongyan, but Hongyan retreated, this is outside the door of the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, countless pairs of eyes are watching, she has self-knowledge.
And Hongli saw her retreat, his heart sank, and he understood that he shouldn't show intimacy here, but he might as well be steady, so he only said: "I want to go to the study to see my brothers, you tell Concubine Yu that Yongqi is very good, let her not be negligent in discipline when she is busy with the affairs of the sixth palace, I value Yongqi very much." β
Hongyan blessed the body and said: "The concubine has written it down, and the emperor will go slowly." β
Hongli smiled faintly, and wanted to say that he would go to Pinghu Qiuyue to accompany her later, but he was afraid that he would have something to do and break the appointment, so he turned around and waited for Hongyan in vain, but he didn't say anything when the words came to his mouth, and told Hongyan to take care of his body, so he left.
Hongyan stood in front of the door and watched the emperor go away, in the past, she would wait until she couldn't see and then move her steps, but at this moment she was afraid that the people of Changchun Immortal Pavilion would see her look strange, so she hid her mind and walked to the door, Qianya was waiting under the eaves, and when she saw her, she said: "The queen is talking about it, saying that you are not in trouble." β
Hongyan entered the door and told the queen what she was going to do, just when the seventh elder brother woke up, after the nurse came to serve properly, the queen personally held it in her arms, the little guy muttered and seemed to want to breastfeed, the queen couldn't put down her son, thinking of Hongyan by her side, she asked her: "Is the Buddha good?" β
"Everything is fine, I've always wanted to bring it to you to see, I'm afraid of noisy little brother sleeping, she is energetic now, and her babbling is louder." Although Hongyan is not her biological mother, she has the same light on her face as the queen, and the little princess is now her pride.
"It's a blessing that the kid followed you." The queen sighed lightly, and soon asked the nurse to carry the little brother back to sleep in the cradle, and she said to Hongyan, "Concubine Jia was born in July, the emperor plans to return to the Forbidden City before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and when I am out of confinement, I will start Zhang Luo and Jing's marriage, she is the emperor's first daughter married out, and my only daughter, the wedding must be grand." β
Hongyan responded: "The concubine has never had a royal wedding, and the mother must be in charge. β
The queen looked at her carefully, and saw the haggard and tiredness in her eyes, the emperor had not been close to any harem for the sake of their mother and son, and Pinghu Qiuyue had hardly been there, she knew that it was Hongli who cared about herself.
Now that everything is going well, after the emperor is fresh for a while, he should calm down, whether it is for other women or for his red face, he will soon become amorous again. But I don't know when Hongyan will give birth to a boy and a half girl for the emperor, and I don't know if Hongli will look at their children like Yongcong.
What's going on?
The queen secretly asked herself in her heart, how could she suffer from gains and losses again, and now she has become a person with both children again, and the lost light has returned to her, but why can't she feel pride?
At this time, Qianya came in and said a little embarrassedly: "Mama Hua sent someone to spread the word, saying that the Queen Mother and the princess came over together." β
When Hongyan heard this, she got up and said goodbye to the queen: "For the rest of the matter, the concubine will come back to tell you tomorrow, and Concubine Yu has nothing important to do, and she won't come over today." If the mother has other orders, the concubine is on standby at any time. β
"Go back and rest early." The queen naturally wants to let go of her red face, and the queen mother will not be willing to see her when she comes, so she has to block each other. But watching Hongyan go, the queen also couldn't bear it, Hongyan was good at everything, and it was good to make people feel distressed.
But Hongyan herself doesn't care what the Queen Mother thinks of her, even if she has to hide or avoid it, it's just an ordinary thing, don't say that the Queen Mother doesn't want to see her, and she herself doesn't want to have anything to do with the Queen Mother, she doesn't hesitate to anger the emperor, and she said it clearly to Hongli after the incident in Ningchuntang, so why bother acting now.
All the way back to Pinghu Autumn Moon, the footsteps are light and the mood is happy, the spring is brilliant in April, the good scenery is in front of you, it is really not worth worrying about those things. Hongyan folded the wicker and picked the small flowers, braided them into a garland and brought them back, the Buddha was babbling and screaming when she was full of milk, and she was even more excited when she saw Hongyan.
Hongyan put the garland on her head, and the little girl frowned and endured it for a while, and with a wave of her chubby little hand, she threw the garland on the ground. Everyone laughed, and Hongyan hugged the little girl and was disgusted: "Don't give Eniang face like this?" β
After playing with Buddha for a long time, the little doll was tired and sleepy, and Hongyan leaned on the bed and patted her to sleep, but she was also tired, coaxing, I don't know when the girl fell asleep, but she fell asleep. The little princess seems to know how to feel sorry for her, this sleep is also solid and long, the mother and daughter from the afternoon sunshine, sleep until dusk and sunset, cherry knows that the master is tired, see that the little princess is not awake, so do not bother, it is almost time to pass the meal, but the emperor ushered in.
"Why are you still sleeping?" When the emperor entered the door and saw that the room was quiet, he unconsciously lowered his voice and asked Cherry, "Is she unwell?" β
Cherry shook her head and said, "It's just that I'm tired, the princess will ask for a mother when she cries at night, and with the things of the day, I have hardly slept for a whole night." β
Hongli frowned slightly, and asked Cherry to prepare dinner, he had the heart to come to see Hongyan today, but he was afraid that she would wait for nothing to say, and he would come immediately after taking care of all the important things, and he could eat with her, who knew that Hongyan and his daughter slept so soundly.
Approaching the bed, Hongyan was really wearing a regular shirt without changing his bedclothes, and the thick velvet blanket covered half of his body, and he was sleeping sweetly. As soon as Hongli approached, the Buddha woke up first, looking at his father with big beautiful eyes, and suddenly grinned, so cute that people were reluctant to look away.
Hongli booed his daughter, but where did the milk doll understand, and thought that her father was teasing her, she immediately giggled, and Hongyan was immediately awakened, but she patted the little girl first and asked: "Buddha woke up, why did you dream so happy?" I didn't see the emperor standing by the bed at all, I looked up to call the nurse, and when I saw the emperor in front of me, I was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, "The emperor will call the nurse quickly." β
Hongyan slept in one position for so long, half of her body was numb, and took the nurse to take the princess away, Hongli sat on the edge of the couch and pinched her arms and legs, Hongyan was painful and itchy and couldn't eat, but looking at the emperor's focused expression, he gradually forgot the feeling on his body, and looked at it for a long time with the same concentration, and waited for Hongli to ask her if she was better, before she woke up and said: "It's okay, the emperor is waiting outside, and the concubine is now untidy." β
How could Hongli care about these little things, but instead helped her to get up, went to the mirror table together, took the comb and said decently, "I will help you comb your hair." β
Hongyan took the comb from his hand and smiled: "When the emperor gets it done in half a day, we will all be hungry." She turned to look at herself in the mirror, this sleep made her spirit look much better, but her cheeks were slightly puffy, and suddenly she saw the person in the mirror staring at her intently, Hongyan gently pushed and said, "I'm sorry, go outside and wait, it will be fine soon." β
Hongli said unhappily: "I haven't looked at you carefully for a few days, and I can't get enough of it." β
Hongyan turned around and said, "But the concubine is not good-looking at this time, I just want the emperor to see the most beautiful appearance." β
"But you didn't break into my heart because you were good-looking, beauty is not unusual to me at all." Hongli gently took off the crooked hairpin on his red hair and said, "I care about you. β
"Beauty is not unusual, what about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" Hongyan's heart was warm, and she looked back and gave the emperor an ambiguous smile, a joke that caught the emperor's past shortcomings, but Hongli saw that she had the intention to joke, and she was very happy in her heart, but she gently picked her chin and said, "You just have to be sharp, and remember to take back the words you say." β
The red face is slightly puffy, but it is a little more naΓ―ve than usual, she looks good, she is beautiful when she cries, she is beautiful when she laughs, and more importantly, she is the person she likes, everything is pleasing to the eye, how can the emperor care about her untidy appearance.
The two of them joked, slowly cleaned up, and put down the imperial meal outside, and came out hand in hand, Cherry saw this scene, smiled and frowned, and said to the emperor: "The emperor is here, we are just serious about setting up the meal, Niangniang is busy for a while, picking a few side dishes and a bowl of porridge every day, and eating it in a daze is over, and I haven't eaten well." β
Hongli was naturally displeased, frowning and glaring at Hongyan, Hongyan didn't dare to look at him, so he could only blame Cherry: "Do you want to do a lot of things?" Stand down. β
But the emperor instructed Cherry: "Your master's body is important, and you must serve your daily meals well in the future, if you let me know what is wrong, it is your fault." If you drink porridge every day, don't be an errand here. β
Cherry pretended to be flustered and said to Hongyan: "Master, can you hear me?" The emperor wants to ask the slave and maid about their sins. β
Hongyan ignored her and said angrily: "You deserve it, you have to talk too much." β
The emperor had already sandwiched the dishes for her and said, "If you have time to mix with cherries, it is better to eat a few more bites, is it possible that you still want to drink porridge when I come." β
Hongyan smiled and said, "Yes, the concubine obeys the order." β
After the two of them had a laugh and a smile, they came out to ask the emperor where he was resting tonight, the queen was waiting for labor and delivery for more than a month before and after, and the emperor did not turn over the sign of the harem.
The spring night is slightly cool, but there is no autumn bleakness, and the fragrance of flowers in the wind is refreshing. Hongyan had a rare rest for a long time today, the emperor was by his side again, and the people who were in a good mood also became lively, picked up stones by the lake and threw them into the water to listen to the sound of the water, tilted his head and asked Hongli: "I heard that connoisseurs can know how deep the water is just by listening to the sound of stones falling into the water, can the emperor hear it?" β
Hongli shook his head, looking at Hongyan's energetic and light figure at the moment, thinking of her busy figure in the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, he suddenly said: "These days, I have worked hard for you, and I have wronged you even more." β
