"The emperor is awake! The queen mother, the emperor is awake. ”

"Cherish the ......"

Chu Xizhi slowly opened his eyes and heard a noise around him, but there was a voice in the noise that tugged at his heart. He turned his head away, and sure enough, he touched a face full of tears. The corners of his mouth hurriedly pulled up a smile, and he raised his hand to gently wipe away the tears under Xiao Xiwei's face, "Fool, what are you crying about, isn't it good for me." ”

Xiao Xiwei pressed Chu Xizhi's hand, pressed his face hard against his palm, and the tears couldn't stop falling down.

"Seventh brother." Chu Muzhi's anxious voice suddenly sounded outside the hall, Chu Xizhi just turned his face, Chu Muzhi had already walked to the bed, he just wanted to speak, he caught a glimpse of Xiao Xiwei next to him with tears on his face, his heart twitched, and his face turned gray, "Seventh brother, you, are you okay?" ”

Catching a glimpse of the expressions of the two, Chu Xizhi frowned, and sat up with Xiao Xiwei's hand, "I'm just feeling a little tired lately, are you two making such a fuss?" ”

Chu Muzhi still didn't believe it, he turned his head, saw the imperial doctor standing on the side, and hurriedly shouted, "Imperial Doctor Song." ”

"Lord Wang." Imperial Physician Song hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Chu Muzhi.

"You say, what's wrong with the emperor? How could a good person faint? "The Way of Chumu.

"Back to the prince's words, Your Highness, the reason why he suddenly fainted was because of the loss of qi and blood, and I think it was because of overwork recently." Imperial Physician Song half-bowed and replied respectfully.

When Chu Mu heard this, the tight string in his heart suddenly loosened.

"Wei'er, you just heard what the Imperial Doctor said, you should rest assured." Chu Xizhi took Xiao Xiwei's hand and said softly.

Xiao Xi raised her eyes slightly, her slender eyelashes moved, her quiet eyes stared at Chu Xizhi, and after a while, she lowered her eyes and buried her face in Chu Xizhi's chest, and then stretched out her hand and wrapped it around his waist hard.

In June, the sun was shining brightly in the morning, and in the blink of an eye, the rain was falling.

The sound of raindrops hitting the eaves came 'popping', Xiao Xiwei stood under the corner of the porch, looking at the rain curtain in front of him with a dull gaze, only to feel that his heart was barren.

A month later, the emperor suddenly decreed that a palace maid waiting beside him would be promoted to a concubine, and this holy decree caused a lot of waves in both the previous dynasty and the harem. You must know that in the past ten years, the emperor has favored the queen alone, and during this period, there are no ministers who have persuaded the emperor to take a concubine, but they were all rejected by the emperor, but this time he suddenly accepted a concubine, and he was only a palace maid. But this was just the beginning, for the next two months, the emperor stayed at the concubine's place, and never even stepped into the queen's Fengyi Palace. In this way, the ministers in the court began to sit still, the queen must be the queen, and she is also the biological mother of the prince, even if His Majesty favors the concubine, but he can't snub the mother of the country, yes, under the recommendation of the ministers, His Royal Highness Chu Muzhi, who is the emperor's closest brother, went to the imperial study to serve as this lobbyist, no, Chu Muzhi was reprimanded by the emperor in less than a quarter of an hour after entering the imperial study.

When Gu Qingyou went to Fengyi Hall to greet Xiao Xiwei, she sat in front of the couch and concentrated on needlework. Gu Qingyou walked in and took a look, and saw that Xiao Xi seemed to be sewing a bedclothes, the style of the clothes was embroidered on it, and at a glance, it was prepared for Chu Xizhi, she only glanced at it, and couldn't help frowning, and said distressedly, "Niangniang, don't embroider, it's better for the concubine to accompany you to talk." ”

Xiao Xi smiled and raised his eyes to look at Gu Qingyou, "You say, I'll listen." ”

Gu Qingyou saw that the movements in Xiao Xiwei's hands were still non-stop, and his eyebrows couldn't help but tighten even more, and he thought about his words before coming, but now he didn't know where to speak.

Xiao Xi raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Gu Qingyou lightly, then pulled the corners of his mouth, and then lowered his head and started needlework. I don't know if it was distraction or what, suddenly, the needle in her hand was crooked, and it pierced her finger, and the bean-sized blood beads gushed out, Xiao Xiwei hurriedly put her finger in her mouth and sucked it.

"Mother, don't embroider." Biyun snatched the needle embroidery from Xiao Xiwei's hand, she half-knelt in front of Xiao Xiwei and held her fingers, and her eyes turned red.

Xiao Xi's eyebrows frowned slightly, "Biyun, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Niangniang, how many shoes and socks have you made for the emperor in the past few months, but the emperor has never worn them, and he hasn't even looked at you, how can you ...... Why are you so stupid! Biyun said as she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

She once thought that the emperor was sincere to her young lady, but she didn't expect it......

A man is unreliable after all, not to mention that person is still an emperor, but it has only been ten years, and now he has already empathized with him, and he didn't even bother to look at her young lady.

Xiao Xi lowered his eyes slightly, looking at another bead of blood condensed between his fingers, and after a long time, his voice sounded faintly, "Biyun, you don't understand ......"

"Biyun, don't talk about Your Majesty like that, perhaps, Your Majesty also has a hard time." Gu Qingyou looked at Xiao Xi in a soft voice and persuaded slightly.

"What can Your Majesty do! He is the Son of Heaven, and at the beginning, he refused to accept a concubine for the sake of his mother, and the courtiers objected, but in the end, he didn't accept it, and now he ...... Now...... In the end, it's just empathy and don't love, but pity my mother......"

"Biyun, don't say it!" Gu Qingyou couldn't help frowning.

Even if what she said was true, but now that she said it in front of Xiao Xiwei, didn't she poke her chest with a knife.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Xiao Xiwei worriedly.

No, Xiao Xiwei just raised her head and looked out of the door quietly, with a cold silence in her faint eyes, and an indescribable loneliness exuded around her.

She had never seen such a Xiao Xiwei, so even though she had a stomach full of comforting words at this time, she didn't know how to say anything to her.

"Mother."

At this moment, Ziyan suddenly walked in quickly.

Hearing the sound, Xiao Xi came back to her senses slightly, and she hurriedly stood up from the couch, "How is it?" ”

Ziyan stepped forward in a few steps, stretched out her hand and grabbed Xiao Xiwei's hand, "Niangniang, Master Doom has already entered the palace." ”

"Okay, it's good if he's here......," Xiao Xiwei said, tears welling up in her eyes.

Looking at Xiao Xiwei at this time, Gu Qing's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of confusion.

Just now, she didn't shed tears when she heard the heart-wrenching words that Biyun said, but now she cried like this when she heard Ziyan say that she had entered the palace. Although she had never seen this master of doom, she had also heard that he had recuperated for the first emperor, and even saved the queen's mother and son in Chao'an Temple. Now, the queen is so excited to cross the misfortune and enter the palace, could it be that anyone in the palace is sick?

"Niangniang, the slave will let someone invite Master Doom in a while." Purple flue.

Xiao Xi shook her head slightly, and then she slowly sat back on the couch, staring at the unfinished bedrobe with a lonely gaze, "No need, you and I just don't know anything." ”

He doesn't know anything, so that he can feel at ease.

"Niangniang......" Ziyan frowned and looked at Xiao Xiwei, her eyebrows and eyes were full of worry.

Xiao Xi smiled, but raised his eyes and looked at Gu Qingyou, "The princess has been out for so long, presumably Mu Zhi should be worried." ”

Gu Qingyou was so smart that she knew that there were some things that the queen didn't want her to know, or let Chu Muzhi know, so she hurriedly got up and blessed Xiao Xiwei, "Then the concubine won't bother the queen, and the concubine will retire." ”

Xiao Xi smiled at her and nodded.

Gu Qingyou smiled slightly, and then retreated.

"Niangniang, don't you really see Master Doom?" Watching Gu Qingyou step out of the room, Ziyan turned her head and couldn't help but ask Xiao Xiwei again.

The corners of Xiao Xi's lips moved slightly, leading to a bitter smile, and after a moment, she shook her head.

Chongde Hall.

Chu Xizhi sat in front of the couch, holding a teacup in his hand, and beside him, the newly sealed concubine was half-squatting on the ground and pinching his legs for him.

After he came in, he kept this posture and did not move, the original hot tea in the cup was already cold, but he neither ordered anyone to change the tea, nor put the teacup down, only kept staring at the cold tea in the cup.

Just when Concubine Shu was secretly wondering if the emperor was dissatisfied with the encounter with Du Er, Chu Xi suddenly spoke, with a little indescribable melancholy in her deep voice, "Du Er, you say, does she know......"

After a moment, he replied, "Your Majesty, this poor monk doesn't know. ”

I don't want to, Chu Xizhi suddenly smiled when he heard Du E's words, "Du E, the monks don't speak, and now, do you even want to hide it?" Speaking of this, he paused, and then opened his mouth to call two words, "Senior brother." ”

Du was stunned for a moment, and when he raised his head again, his clear eyes were full of embarrassment.

Seeing Du Er's expression, Chu Xizhi didn't know anything, he smiled bitterly, and then said, "You all retreat." ”

Concubine Shu squeezed Chu Xizhi's hand and stiffened, and in the end, she still retreated as she said.

As soon as she left, the palace fell silent.

"I had already guessed that she was so smart, how could she hide it from her......" In the silent palace, Chu Xizhi's faint sigh suddenly sounded.

According to her temperament, how could she not even say a word of accusation after knowing that he was a concubine, and always asked the palace maid to send some clothes, shoes and socks from time to time, he looked at the things she sewed out stitches and threads, and his chest was like a thick ball of cotton wool, and sometimes, he would rather her run to scold him or even beat him than like now......

I tried my best, but it seemed that I couldn't hide anything.

Du Er looked at Chu Xizhi, and his clear eyes suddenly flashed with wetness.

Although he is a monk, he has long seen through life and death, but the person standing in front of him now is his senior brother, he has seen him step by step to the present, he has the heart to save him and want to help him, but in the end, he can only watch it like now......

"Senior brother, she doesn't know everything about the queen." After a long time, Du Er looked at Chu Xizhi, and finally slowly spoke.

Chu Xizhi raised his eyebrows and looked at Du Er.

Du Er pursed the corners of his mouth, "Queen, she just thought you were seriously ill......"

Chu Xizhi looked at Du Er, and for a long time, a bitter smile suddenly crept up on the corner of his lips, "I see." ”

No wonder she invited Dogae over, she thought he was just seriously ill.

"Senior brother, I'll find a way......" Du Er looked at Chu Xizhi and spoke in a deep voice again.

Chu Xizhi looked at Du Er and smiled, "You can find an opportunity to tell her privately in a while, and my 'illness' will be cured soon." ”

"Senior Brother......

"Doom, that's my only request."

If she can hide it for a day, she can hide it for a day, so that at least she can be sad for a day less, and now, that's all he can do.

Du Er looked at Chu Xizhi, for a long time, for a long time, and finally he nodded in response.

Receiving Du Doom's answer, Chu Xizhi smiled, "In this case, you can go." ”

Du Er nodded, saluted Chu Xizhi, and then turned around and walked slowly towards the outside of the hall.

"Doom." Behind him, Chu Xizhi looked at Du Er's back and suddenly stood up.

Doom turned around.

Chu Xizhi's tears flowed out, and the eyes that were once shining were full of pain and despair at the moment, he looked at Du E, and said in a hoarse voice, "Du E, I don't want to die......
