In the face of the crying Hongyan, the queen was very calm, her warm hand was the same as many years ago, and she never disappointed her, and Hongyan herself was the same, never sorry for her. Originally, she would be her most loyal palace maid, and she would replace Ruyin as the most intimate younger sister, but all of this became what she was in front of her because of her impulse.

They served a husband together, but unlike any other woman who existed by Hongli's side, Wei Hongyan took his place in the emperor's heart. What's even more ridiculous is that when she was in great grief, the queen actually thought of Wei Hongyan, did she regret that she helped the queen mother not let her give birth, or regretted that she personally sent such a woman to her husband?

The queen doesn't understand, why can Hongyan live with humiliation and burden, and go through so many hardships, but live a sound and colorful life in her small world, but she can never take a step back, just because she is the middle palace and she is the main room?

Seeing that Hongyan let go of her hand, the queen wiped away her tears again, and comforted her in turn: "I survived Yonglian's death, and I will survive this time, I don't know what will happen in the future, the bitterness of those years may have to come again, instead of suffering, it is better to do something you want to do while you have the energy." Yongcong left me, but I didn't feel sorry for him, the master said that the child was not a mortal child, and he was born on the Buddha's birthday, maybe he really has some origins, just go, he went to the world to be reincarnated as my son, and it is also my merit. ”

But the more the queen said this, the more Hongyan couldn't suppress the pain, there was no point in saying anything, there was nothing better than being alive.

"If you cry again, I'm going to be annoyed." The queen said weakly, "This time to Mount Tai, the emperor must go very slowly, a month or two on the way back and forth, do you want me to see you cry every day?" Hongyan, don't we have to live this day? ”

Hongyan gradually calmed down, the queen saw her crying pear blossoms with rain and a different posture, she was the same as Hongli, running to the age of forty, but Hongyan was just in her early twenties, it was the best years, she was a blooming flower in the next ten years, and Hongli was in the same year, so would they have children?

This woman who would rather die than drink sterilization pills loves children so much, but God is really ruthless. Thinking of this, the queen's heart trembled, maybe the days when she helped the Queen Mother give Hongyan a contraceptive pill should have been given to her by God when Lin'er, but she missed it because of a bowl of contraceptive medicine, so she indirectly killed Hongyan's child, so Yongcong would resist her life?

The queen laughed sadly, and thought faintly: "This is all fate." ”

Hongyan looked at her smile, every trace of despair in her expression, she involuntarily grabbed the queen's hand again, as if she felt that if she let go, the queen would go far away.

She has never given birth to a child, but she can raise a Buddha, although the chickenpox this time is not dangerous, but when she found that there was a red rash in the crook of her daughter's arm, Hongyan thought that she was willing to exchange her life for the safety of the Buddha, and the queen must be the same. If Fo'er has any three longs and two shorts, Hongyan will feel that it is boring to live, and she is afraid that the queen will also have no love because of the death of the seventh elder brother.

The queen's cold hand gradually warmed because she was tightly held by Hongyan, and the warmth that came from her fingertips to her heart was exactly the same as many years ago, her bleak smile softened, and she said: "Hongyan, you will accompany me, go to Mount Tai, I still want to go to Jiangnan, I want to go to many, many places." This Forbidden City is too depressing, and the Old Summer Palace is just a bigger cage, I want to go to see a wider place, see the world, and live up to my mother's world. ”

"The concubine will always be with you." In the face of life and death, it doesn't matter if you think carefully. Hongyan's former jealousy, helplessness and grievances have all melted into tears, there is nothing better than living, and there is nothing more painful than losing her own flesh and blood, everything she experienced is nothing at all.

"Of course I believe you." The queen smiled, "He Jingchang said that the emperor can't count on him, I understand it now, but it's not that the emperor can't count on it, it's that he still has too many burdens, and I'm just one of them." You naturally have your own life, but it's better than the emperor, I'm afraid I'm going to pester you in the past few years, I always have someone to say what is in my heart, and I'm ashamed to think about it, for so many years, you are the only one. ”

Hongyan said: "Don't forget Ruyin, she sends people every day to ask her concubines if she can come to the palace to see you." ”

The queen smiled: "I really forgot about her, it's better to let her go to Mount Tai with us, and it won't be too hard for the two of you to take care of me together." In fact, I know that I really don't have the strength to move around, but I just want to go out, I want to go to a place without palace walls, and I have to take care of you all the way. ”

"Let's go slower, we can go to many places, the concubine has never seen Mount Tai, and she has never been to Jiangnan." Hongyan said, "Although the concubine is a Han person, I have never seen the Confucian holy land and the Jiangnan landscape with all kinds of customs in the eyes of the Han people. ”

There was a look of longing in the queen's eyes, but she said: "These places, it is said that Kangxi Ye has taken Empress Xiaogongren to walk, and they have walked through so many places hand in hand, so they can walk for a lifetime." ”

Hongyan saw that the queen's eyes were calm, as solemn as a god and Buddha, in addition to yearning for the world outside the palace, there must be the husband and wife of the emperor and queen. When she was a palace maid, she understood better than anyone that the emperor was the most important thing to the queen, but at that time, she could think about the queen in her heart, but now with such an identity and such a relationship, even if she has the heart to give up everything, others will not think she is pious. She can't do anything, so take care of her with tea and water, and accompany her, like many years ago.

Although the emperor's tour came in a hurry, the officials knew what time it was, how dare they make the emperor feel a little dissatisfied, and all the checkpoints were prepared layer by layer, and they even transferred the new big ship built last year for the emperor and queen to travel. The holy car will set off in two days, Yangxin Palace, Changchun Palace, Ningshou Palace and Yanxi Palace, all over the place, are busy packing up, this return date is undecided, maybe the emperor is happy, directly take a boat to the south is not known, the concubines of the six palaces only have eyes to watch, even if they are unhappy, they dare not show it.

On this day, Concubine Yu came to Yanxi Palace, and the nurse had already packed up the things that the little princess needed, Hongyan handed over the Buddha to her with her own hands, and said gratefully: "These days, I have to bother the mother to take care of the Buddha, if she is really noisy, send it to Zhongcui Palace, otherwise it will not be good to quarrel with the fifth elder brother to study." ”

The little princess didn't know that she wouldn't see her mother for a long time, so she should go to play in the palace like usual, and Concubine Yu saw that there was no scar on the Buddha's face and hands, which shows how much effort Hongyan has spent to take care of the child this month, she can only say: "You have to take care of yourself, just accompany the mother, let the palace maids do the work, they still have shifts to rest, but you have to bear it day and night." ”

"If there is Ruyin, she will go too." Hongyan straightened her daughter's clothes, and then thanked Concubine Yu, "It's a loss to the mother, and the concubine can feel at ease." ”

Concubine Yu thought to herself, this child's mother is in the palace well, but no one treats her as the same thing, and her red face is really firm enough, it is she who is so simple that she can live a frank life. Turning around and seeing that the nurse was carrying something, she ordered: "You wait and go to Jingyang Palace again, now she just thinks she is going to play with me, and you will come back when you start crying." ”

Hongyan also instructed the nurse: "These days, I will listen to Concubine Yu's arrangement, don't make trouble for my mother." ”

Concubine Yu coaxed the Buddha to take her to play, the little girl stretched out her hand and pointed to Eniang to be together, Hongyan coaxed her to say that she would go over later, and let Concubine Yu take the Buddha away. But this time she took it away, Hongyan felt reluctant, she was originally relieved to leave it to Concubine Yu to take care of her, and then she realized that she couldn't do without the child at all.

Thinking that she was only separated from the child for a short time, but the queen was eternally separated from her relatives and flesh and blood, Hongyan couldn't help but burst into tears, or Cherry persuaded her: "Master, let's quickly pack up our things, Mr. Wu came to bring more things, spring and summer are ready, maybe it will take a long time, if the queen is in good spirits, she may go south directly." ”

Two days later, the holy car went out on patrol, this is also the first time Ruyin has seen the queen after a long time of separation, she saw Hongyan before, and repeatedly promised that she would not cry when she saw the queen, but she couldn't help it as soon as she got in the car. Or did the queen tease her with a joke: "I'm not afraid of motion sickness after taking medicine, have you taken it?" Ruyin, do you know that the first time Hongyan accompanied me to the Old Summer Palace, she fainted after such a little walk, but when she waited for the emperor in front of the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, she was about to vomit in front of the emperor, and she was probably the only one who dared to vomit in front of the emperor throughout the ages. ”

After Hongyan's sadness, she has calmed down a lot now, and the result is that she and the queen persuaded Ruyin not to be sad, until Fu Heng was mentioned later, saying that the pacification of Dajinchuan was just around the corner, Ruyin stopped crying, and the queen sighed that she had a solid family behind her, and no wind and waves were enough to fear, and the emperor and the Fucha family would shelter her from the wind and rain.

The queen smiled even more: "No matter how far we go, we have to go back, Ruyin, can you turn around and send Fulongan to Changchun Palace, I am afraid that I will not be able to adapt to it all of a sudden, if you are willing, it is good to put Fulongan in the palace to raise?" ”

Ruyin naturally agreed to everything, and didn't think about what kind of impact these things would bring, anyway, she could make the queen happy right now, and she could do whatever she wanted. Fu Heng also calmly told her in the letters that sadness is inevitable now, but life has to go on, and she must accompany the queen through this most painful period no matter what.

After the carriage went for two days, it was going to board the boat and take the waterway, because the queen had a red face and Ruyin around her, the emperor and queen did not see each other much these days, and met at the dock at the moment, and saw that the queen's spirit was better than when she was in the palace, Hongli felt that this trip had meaning.
