Three years later, the winter solstice

Fengqi Palace was in a mess, and the midwife alone invited five or six to wait outside the door.

Liuwan held the basin of water and didn't know who he collided with, and he was just about to scold angrily,

When I raised my eyes, it was Si Yanyin standing outside the door.

"Male... Princess, slave see princess. ”

"What happened to the Queen?"

She listened to the mournful screams in the room.

"The midwife said that there is a master and a sign of dystocia...."

"I'll go in and see."

"Princess, the princess is not married yet, so it's not easy to enter the delivery room..."

Liuyun hurriedly stood in front of her.

"Yes, Princess, it's not in order."

The midwife who was waiting outside the door also came to talk.

"Princess, it's better to go back to the palace and wait first, the slave and maid sent someone to guard here,

As soon as there is news, the master will be notified immediately. ”

The big girl beside Si Yanyin proposed.

"Okay, you guys wait well, I'll come back later!"

Si Yanyin left with Se Rong, leaving only a little maid to wait here.

"Eh, you're also new to the palace?"

As soon as the little maid stood cramped by the door, she was pulled aside by another maid.

"I only entered the palace last month, from Maocheng..."

"Sure enough, it looks green, what's your name?"

"My name is Shu Lan...."

She's still timid.

"My name is Xun'er, and I am also from Maocheng, and I see that we are the same group of people who entered the palace."

"I heard that the queen gave birth to two sons in less than three years, but is it true?"

Shu Lan saw that he met a fellow villager who was also a newcomer, and he couldn't help but let go of the mustard in his heart.

"Of course! Our palace lady is the crown of the harem, and the emperor doesn't even enter other palace gates!

No, the prince is only one year old, and the queen is pregnant again. ”

"How did I hear that it was the dragon bed that the queen mother climbed on herself?"

As soon as she entered the palace, she heard rumors.

"Bah, do you dare to believe this kind of gossip? When the queen was still Miss Shanfu,

The emperor has a soft spot for Niangniang, and after being a concubine for half a year and a year later, is it still the emperor who is forced by Niangniang with a knife? ”

Xun'er rolled her eyes, you know, she stuffed a lot of silver taels for Manager Yang at home,

was sent into the queen's palace by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to do sundries, and now this queen is her master, and when she heard that her master was falsely accused, her heart was naturally unhappy.

"Sister, don't blame, I'm just hearsay."

"Alas! You are still young, and there are countless fat mouths and long tongues in this palace,

How many ladies in the palace are in a hurry to splash dirty water on our palace door,

However, the queen has always been generous, and she never pays attention to such empty words.

Or that the queen can leap into a phoenix, but they can only scream like crickets. ”

"Sister Xun'er is by the queen's side, she must have a bright future, and she will have to take care of Shu Lan in the future."

"It's not bad for you to follow the princess!"

Xun'er was slapped on the back, and naturally smiled.

"But the princess is going to marry after all..."

At the mention of this, Shu Lan couldn't help but lower her head.

"How can you follow the princess with peace of mind."

"That's right, this princess has already reached the age of marriage, you said that the princess herself is not in a hurry,

The emperor didn't let her choose a place for her, so it was so strange to spend it in the palace. ”

Outside the courtyard, people gathered in a few groups and chatted quietly.

In the house, Shan Yichu was about to be tortured to death by the child in his belly.

"I can't... Never have a baby again! ”

Liuyun stood in front of the couch and watched her roar through gritted teeth.

When she gave birth to the little prince a year and a half ago, she said the same thing.

"Master, if the master endures it a little longer, he will soon be born."

She was only anxious, but she couldn't help at all.

Finally, after tossing for nearly two hours, the baby's cry resounded throughout Fengqi Palace,

Her eyes closed and she fell into a deep dream.

"Congratulations."

A familiar voice rang in her ears.

It's a woman.

"Who are you?"

"It's an old man...."

The woman sighed softly.

In the dream, she stood in the valley, but it was empty all around, and there was no figure in sight.

"What are you looking for me for?"

It's been a long time since she's fallen into a dream again.

"I'm here to tell you that the hour is coming."

"What time is coming?"

"Early next month, I'll come back to you again and tell you the truth about the whole thing."

"The truth? What truth? ”

She shouted into the empty valley, and then answered her, only staccato echoes.

When she woke up, Si Yanjin was sitting on the edge of her bed.

"What did you give birth to? I haven't had time to see it yet...."

"Daughter."

The corners of his mouth couldn't hide a slight smile.

"My daughter is good, she won't be as naughty as Xiu'er."

"My Xiu'er has always been calm, when have you ever been naughty?"

He lovingly wiped the sweat from her sideburns.

"That's in front of the emperor, and he is used to pretending to be old,

I don't know if the emperor was like this when he was a child. ”

"It's just a child, you don't have to stick to his nature,

When you get older, you know how to carry this Shun Yan on your shoulders,

Naturally, I understand what responsibility is. ”

At the mention of the word Jiangshan, her heart seemed to be pressed against a boulder.

I don't want Xiu'er to inherit the throne in the future, I just hope that he will spend his life safely and happily, but he doesn't inherit it.

And who will inherit? If she says it, it will be equivalent to a resounding slap in the face to the emperor,

and pushed him into the wombs of other concubines by the way, but he just made himself angry.

"Anyway, there is the emperor's discipline, so I naturally don't have to care too much."

She sighed bitterly in her heart, but she didn't dare to show half a point on her face, who called herself in love with whom it was not good,

Fall in love with an emperor?

At night, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and the maids who kept vigil were already sleepy and napping.

Shan Yichu was the boss with staring eyes, and his mind was full of the words of the woman in the dream.

"The hour is coming? What time is coming? ”

Is it possible? Is your life at the end of your life? Is it time to die?

Count the days, there is less than half a year before the day she faked her death in the dream,

Is it possible? No matter how she reverses this ending, she can't escape the book of life and death in the hands of Lord Yama?

The last dream was that she was lying in a coffin and going out of the palace gate, and then it ended.

In the next few years, there was no follow-up to her leaving the palace, could it be possible?

In fact, after she left the palace, what happened that caused her fake death to come true?

Did Si Yanjin know that he faked his death, so he was furious and ordered her to be beheaded?

Or did someone take the opportunity to murder themselves?

She sat up and looked at the palatial dormitory in front of her, at the golden silk silkworm of this bed.

Three years ago, the night before Concubine Feng, the sky was thundering, and she took advantage of the rainy night to slip away to Si Yanjin's bedroom.

Cheekily climbed onto the dragon bed, shouting that he was afraid of thunder, but he slept beside him all night.

She still remembered the expression on the emperor's face at that time, how wonderful it was.

"Can't the emperor just give me a place?"

She lay on the edge of the bed, and when she saw that he did not reply, it was cold under her marble feet.

"The concubine is really afraid of thunder...."

"I see you're getting bolder."

He had just been woken up by a thunderbolt, and when he turned around, he saw a disheveled head beside the bed staring at him.

Startled, he almost flew up and kicked her under the bed.

"If the emperor thinks it's not suitable, then I'll sleep under the bed..."

She pitifully planned to lie down on the spot.

"Get out..."

Si Yanjin lifted the corner of the quilt and glanced at her helplessly.

"Emperor Xie!"

She climbed onto the dragon couch beautifully, got into the bed, and leaned into his arms.

This night, she slept soundly, but the person next to her was sleepless.

The arm was under her all night, and she was unconscious by her pillow, and she almost couldn't hold it in the morning.

He sat on the dragon chair and listened to the ministers below chanting the scriptures, and dozed off groggyly.

After scattering early, he wanted to go back to the palace to make up for sleep, but when he opened the veil tent, he saw that the little woman was still lying on the couch.

The people standing outside the door were all trembling, and they didn't even dare to step further in the dormitory.

"Stand down."

He was forced to go back to the study.

"You say, this emperor is too powerful, right? After tossing all night, this single lady didn't get up until noon,

But the emperor is like no one..."

"The emperor is young, vigorous...."

The two palace people were guarding outside the dormitory, gossiping quietly.

The so-called one pass ten, ten pass hundred, soon spread all over the palace, this single lady has not yet been crowned a concubine,

The emperor couldn't wait to summon her to bed, and became the first person to be favored in this palace.

The two of them turned over the clouds and rain all night, which can be said to have shocked the whole palace.

Soon after she became a concubine, she became pregnant, and was soon canonized as queen.

Because of the matter after the seal, there were quite a few complaints from the top and bottom of the court, and the ministers probed her life experience outside, and she had been a subordinate in Hengfu.

However, the whole of the Shan Mansion tried their best to testify for her, saying that she was the cousin of the Shan Mansion family, and the ministers saw that the emperor was resolute.

And there are more and more people who stand in line, so they no longer talk about it and obstruct more.

The ceremony was held as scheduled, and half a month after the closure, Shan Heng was promoted to a scholar of the palace.

Shan Heng's promotion did not make her feel relieved, but more worried.

Just because she didn't help Shan Heng seek power doesn't mean he won't have this ambition.

She was worried that Si Yanjin's promotion of Shan Heng would only be a problem for raising tigers.

However, a meeting by the lake in the future made her change her mind.

After the first seal of Shan descendant, Shan Heng sent a lot of congratulatory gifts, and she only sent a few words to him in a hurry.

On that day, she went to the garden to cool off with a big belly, but happened to meet Shan Heng who entered the palace.

He stood by the lake, accompanied by the gentle breeze, holding a guqin in his arms,

Si Yanyin stood beside him, and the two didn't know what they were chatting about.

She stood in the dark and did not come forward, if she said that she watched him talk and laugh with other women,

It's not that there is no bitterness in her heart, but what surprises her even more is that

He is not as gloomy as in his dreams, but as warm as ever,

Not a single thing has changed.

In the middle of the night, Shan Heng put down the guqin, and a familiar song sounded.

That's when the prime minister first met.

With the sound of the piano, she walked over unconsciously,

Si Yanyin, who heard the footsteps, looked back at her, and Shan Chu woke up and walked up to them.

Shan Heng looked up and saw her, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Wechen see the queen mother...."

"No need to be polite."

She hurried to stop him from saluting herself.

"This palace came out to breathe, but I didn't expect to meet Shan Bachelor Hao Yaxing."

"Wechen happened to meet the princess."

"I happened to meet and still carry the guqin?"

She looked at the familiar guqin.

"Weichen went into the palace today to teach the princess to practice the piano."

"The princess wants to learn the piano?"

She was a little surprised.

"Idle is idle..."

Si Yanyin didn't think so.

"Don't let this palace disturb you, this palace will leave first."

As soon as she was about to turn around, she heard Shan Heng hurriedly take two steps forward:

"Since the queen mother is here, why don't you listen to a song and leave?"

"Yes, Master Shan's piano sound is very beautiful, it's better to listen to it before leaving."

Si Yanyin also helped.

"Well..."

She smiled brightly, but she stayed selfishly.

All afternoon, they sat by the lake, and said nothing.

Just listen to the sound of the piano.

She could tell that the prime minister seemed to have been changed at the beginning.

There was a faint desolation in the sound of the piano, and a trace of remorse in the desolation.

She remembered that in the dream, Shan Heng was changed because of his heart,

Even the sound of the piano became impatient and arrogant, which made her uncomfortable to listen to.

But now, it seems that the sound of the piano is still the same as before, and he seems to be not very different from the development of dreams.

Could it be that the dream went wrong?

In the evening, Shan Heng left.

"Alas, the imperial brother has recently intended to match me with Shan Heng...."

Si Yanyin didn't look at Shan Heng's back.

"What does the princess think of Bachelor Shan?" She asked.

"Very well, he bears some resemblance to a fox, and I would like to be with him.

It's just that by chance, you will see the figure of a fox on him, and you will see things and think about people. ”

Si Yanyin only had one person in her heart, and she couldn't hold anything else.

Unexpectedly, the emperor would deliberately bring the princess and Shan Heng together,

Isn't he provoking King Xun a few days ago to divide the border fields to Shun Yan as he wished?

Over the years, Xun Che has endured Shun Yan again and again, and after a long time, I am afraid that it is not a good thing.

In the future, there will inevitably be a fierce battle between Shun and Xun Che.
