In the darkness of the Mill Alley, the footsteps are tense and urgent.

There were soldiers with knives at the entrance of the street, and soldiers were also sent to the Yangzhou camp of the forbidden army, led by the soldiers and horses in person, and the entrances and exits and major roads were surrounded by water.

The two craftsmen entered with their tools, and the coffin was covered with a white cloth, and it was impossible to see the reason, but the dark room was filled with a foul smell of rotting flesh, and it was still disgusting even if there were two deodorized incense sticks burning in the corner.

The young craftsman immediately covered his nose with his sleeve.

"My lord, what does this smell like?"

The atmosphere in the room was silent, and no one answered.

The master who came with him glared at him with puffed eyes.

"Do your job."

"Oh."

Dangdang!

The sound of the iron striking was particularly harsh in the silence, and occasionally collided with a few sparks, adding a bit of weirdness to the space......

Fu Jiuqu sat quietly on one side, looking at the splashing sparks, his face calm.

The percussion continued for a while, and the old craftsman straightened up and said to Cheng Cang with a smile:

"My lord, all sides are chiseled, and I have to bother you to come and help......

Cheng Cang beckoned to several guards outside the door, and several people surrounded the coffin and shouted in unison.

"Up!"

The coffin slowly lifted, and a dark black hole crashed into the eye unexpectedly.

It was an even darker place, like a path to the abyss, and the oil lamp sank to the end......

··

Xin Yi had just experienced the pain of childbirth, but he was very energetic when he slept, and on a whim, he asked people to move the crib to the bedroom, guarding Xiaobao inch by inch, and his eyes were reluctant to blink.

When it was dark, after dinner, both the nurse and Xiangling urged her to rest and take Xiaobao away, for fear that Xiaobao's crying would affect her sleep, but Xin Yi refused to let her.

"How can a mother be afraid of her children being noisy?"

Everyone can't do anything with her, everything has to be in front of her, feeding, changing diapers, washing her body......

Xin Yi liked everything she saw, and in a short period of time, her son's name was changed countless times in her mind, but she still couldn't settle down, so she followed Xiang Ling and called "Xiaobao" together.

She didn't take a nap until midnight, and woke up again when she heard Xiaobao's cry.

"What's wrong? Is it peeing again? ”

Xiang Ling said distressedly: "Sister, you just let the nurse take Xiaobao down, with me and Xingyuan watching, it will be fine." ”

Xin Yi felt that he didn't have to take care of the child himself, it was already very easy compared to other mothers, and he didn't want to miss the child's growth, not at all.

"I said it didn't matter." She smiled and pulled the quilt over her lower abdomen, "Besides, I'm not sleepy." ”

Xiang Ling said: "You are weak after giving birth, so you have to recuperate." My mother said that if you don't do well in confinement, you will have a big loss, and you can't make up for it. ”

Xin Yi yawned: "You are so young, why do you nag like a woman......"

Xiaobao didn't know where he was not satisfied, he changed his diaper and cried for a long time, the nurse walked around patting and coaxing him, Xiangling was distressed and anxious, and he was dissatisfied in private, and his mouth was pouting.

"The king of the county is really, my sister just gave birth to a son for him, and he didn't say that he would accompany you more in the house......"

Xin Yi glanced at her, "The county king has something important to do." ”

"Humph!" Xiang Ling lowered his eyes and put the wet diaper into the basket, "Anyway, I don't think the king of the county treats my sister like before, it's not that he is not good, it's just that he will be good for a while, and it will be troublesome." ”

Xin Yi didn't hear what she was complaining about, and her mind drifted away.

"Hasn't the county king returned to his house yet?"

Xiang Ling snorted, "I went to inquire about Taoyu before, and I didn't come back as soon as I went out." ”

Xin Yi's face couldn't help but become solemn.

I've been gone for so long and haven't come back, is it because things didn't go well?

"Take the children down." Xin Yi suddenly spoke.

This cold command not only shocked Xiang Ling, but also frightened the nurse who coaxed the child.

How do you think that a play is a play?

The two of them glanced at each other and were relieved to make sure Xin Yi wasn't joking.

"That lady should rest early."

Xin Yi closed his eyes slightly, "I'm a little sleepy." ”

The subordinates didn't care about the inconsistencies of the master, even if they were a little strange, they didn't dare to ask more, but Xiang Ling was bold and hesitantly walked to the couch.

"Sister, are you okay?"

Xin Yi shook his head, "It's okay, you bring Yinshuang to my room." ”

"What does my sister want Silver Frost to do in the middle of the night?"

Xiang Ling was puzzled, but he still did as he was told, Xin Yi didn't explain, and looked at Yinshuang with a smile, "Listen, the cooing sound is hypnotic." ”

Xiangling: ......

Xin Yi instructed her again, "You also go down to rest for a while, don't make your little face too haggard, so that your brother Cheng will feel distressed." ”

"Sister......

Xiang Ling glared at her shyly, cleaned up the house, and placed a small gong where Xin Yi could reach it, and then slowly retreated.

The room fell silent.

Xin Yi propped himself up and got out of bed, hastily wrote a few words and tied them to the silver frost foot ring, and watched it fly into the dark sky, before lying back.

The night was unusually long, and she tossed and turned, unable to sleep at all.

asked people to take the child down, because they were afraid that Fu Jiuqu would come back to her in the middle of the night to have something to do, and it would be inconvenient if there were too many people in the room. However, she waited anxiously until the early hours of the morning before Yinshuang flew back, and the ankle bracelet was empty, and no news of Fu Jiuqu was transmitted.

At dawn, she had breakfast alone, and her eyelids couldn't hold on, so she rested seriously.

Fu Jiuqu came back almost noon, dusty, still wearing the same clothes as when he left, and he went to Tianshui Pavilion as soon as he entered the mansion.

I met three little ones at the door, and I heard them say that Xin Yi was still sleeping, and Xiaobao was also asleep, so he paused a little and turned around to prepare to go back to Jinfeng Pavilion.

"The King of the County." Xiang Ling called out to him.

Fu Jiuqu turned his head and frowned.

Xiang Ling, like the people in the mansion, was usually afraid of Fu Jiuqu, but at this time, because of his distress and hard work, he still had the courage to come forward.

"King Jun, can you spare a little time to accompany my sister."

Fu Jiuqu's eyes condensed slightly, "What did she say?" ”

Xiang Ling lowered her eyes and didn't dare to look directly, "No, my sister always says that the county king is very busy and has official business to do, and the servants are never allowed to say that the county king is not good, but I can see that my sister wants the county king to be by her side......"

Fu Jiuqu: ......

Xiang Ling looked at his unpredictable handsome face.

"Last night, the light in my sister's room was on all night, and she didn't say anything, but I knew that she was waiting for you."

Fu Jiuqu: "So? ”

Xiang Ling: "Don't go, go see my sister when you come back, okay?" Even if you don't say anything, sit for a while, and my sister will be happy. ”

Fu Jiuqu glanced at her, walked back without saying a word, and sure enough, he went to Xinyi's room.

Xiang Ling let out a long sigh of relief, secretly clenched his fists, and muttered in a low voice, "I did it, I really did it......"

Cheng Cang stood at the door and looked at her silently.

Xiang Ling noticed that his expression was a little weird, like he was looking at a fool.

So, he twisted his brow suspiciously and approached.

"Brother Cheng, what's wrong with you?"

Cheng Cang: "It's nothing. ”

Xiang Ling touched his hot ears, "Why do I think you have bad eyes, like you're scolding me?" Otherwise, how could my ears suddenly get hot? ”

Cheng Cang: ......
