Chapter 18: Heartbeat

After the dinner, they should have left the palace separately, but the Queen Mother thought about her previous debt to King Qin, and left King Qin and Princess Qin alone to narrate.

The crowd dispersed, and the originally lively dormitory suddenly became deserted.

Originally, the emperor was also going to be busy with government affairs, but today he also found time to accompany his emperor more.

At this time, Director Huang suddenly came to report, and Chen Guogong sent a congratulatory gift. Director Huang is the great eunuch who serves by the Queen Mother's side.

The Queen Mother frowned, "Didn't Chen Guogong send a congratulatory gift, how could he send another one at this time?" ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, the person sent by Chen Guogong said that he could not come in person to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday because of his illness bed, and apologize again." Director Huang said again, "The gift-giver slave has been stopped outside the palace, and the gift slave has been brought over." ”

As he spoke, Gonggong Huang presented a colorful glass box.

When she passed by Song Yan, she felt this strange fragrance wafting by her side. This is Song Yan's personal bracelet, but it raised a dangerous alarm and vibrated slightly.

Could it be that there is a problem with this congratulatory gift from Chen Guogong?

If that's the case, then he's too bold. dared to do it to the Queen Mother.

Song Yan took half a step and wanted to go up to check, but was stopped by Bo Jinnian. Shaking his head at her, "Don't act rashly. ”

The queen mother originally didn't like the Chen family, but because the emperor was here, the things sent by the uncle of this country still opened it and took a look, only to see a white bead lying in the colorful glass box.

Suddenly, a refreshing smell spread, and the Queen Mother's face stretched out, and she praised again and again: "What is this, it smells so good?" ”

"The little guy sent said that this is a sleeping pill, which has the effect of helping sleep." Huang Gong is fair.

"Take it and put it at the head of the bed." The Queen Mother said, and the palace maid next to her took the glass box away.

The faint fragrance of this thing really smells good, but when that thing disappears, Song Yan's bracelet warning disappears. This made Song Yan even more sure that that thing was dangerous.

After such a toss, most of the time has passed, and the emperor is also busy dealing with political affairs and leaves.

At this time, the Queen Mother's spirit seemed to be better, and she walked a few steps under the support of her personal grandmother.

Slowly, the Queen Mother is too old, although she is graceful and luxurious enough, but her body is already in her last years, and her body is already ninety years old, and she can't stand any toss anymore.

"Jin Nian, do you know why I left you alone?"

Bo Jinnian hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, "Grandson knows that the imperial grandmother is the most distressed about Jinnian." ”

Song Yan could only kneel down.

The Queen Mother hurriedly said: "Good boy, get up quickly, our ancestors and grandchildren don't need to be polite." ”

"Yes." Bo Jinnian said.

Bo Jinnian and Song Yan got up at this time, helped the Queen Mother to sit down, and the two sat down separately on the left and right of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother held Bo Jinnian in one hand and Song Yan in the other, with a satisfied smile on her face, "Jinnian, this child, he has a hard life when he is young, not long after he was born, his mother died, and he grew up alone, now he is good, he finally has a person who knows cold and heat." ”

This was said to Song Yan.

The previous royal rules just made Song Yan feel cumbersome and cold, and the queen mother at this moment was just an ordinary grandmother who cared about her grandson and wanted to say a few thoughtful words.

Song Yanfang's doubts about the congratulatory gift have not been dispelled, and at this time, she used the bracelet test to test the Queen Mother, indicating that the Queen Mother's body has no signs of poisoning.

She was a little relieved.

Only then did Song Yan know that it turned out that Bo Jinnian's mother had passed away a long time ago, no wonder Su He would say that about her before. Suddenly, she felt that Bo Jinnian was quite pitiful when she was a child. He, a helpless person, can grow up safely in this deep palace, I am afraid that it is because the Queen Mother has taken care of him.

I don't know how much suffering he has endured to achieve what he is today.

Song Yan suddenly understood why Emperor Qing did not have many princes, but he was willing to send the young Bo Jinnian to the frontier, and he would be there for ten years.

In the past ten years, not only did he not die, but he established the name of a god of war on the frontier, which terrified the enemy.

"My grandson is alive to this day thanks to the care of the imperial grandmother." Bo Jinnian said.

"Good boy, your grandmother knows all the hardships you have endured over the years, you get up quickly." The Queen Mother trembled her hands and held Bo Jinnian tightly, "Grandmother is old, and the happiest thing is to see you all get married, so that Grandmother doesn't have to worry about anything." ”

"Grandmother is not old at all, and she still has to hold her great-grandson." Bo Jinnian also held his grandmother's hand, his voice trembled, this feeling is probably only understood by their grandparents.

The people next to him couldn't help but be moved when they looked at it.

"Grandmother, grandchildren must be fine and will not disappoint your expectations." Bo Jinnian said.

The Queen Mother nodded, as if she had received a satisfactory answer, because her old man was too old, and it was not easy to say so many words today, and she was already tired at this time, so Song Yan and Bo Jinnian had to propose to leave the palace and let the old man rest.

"Come into the palace more often to see your grandmother, in this deep palace, grandmother is looking forward to you every day." The old man's voice came from behind him, a desolate voice, with a hint of helplessness.

Bo Jinnian nodded heavily, knelt down again, bowed, and then pulled Song Yan away.

Bo Jinnian is not a prince now, and he does not have the right to enter the palace at any time, and if he wants to enter the palace, he needs to ask for a decree. Of course, the Queen Mother can summon him every day, but he knows what his grandmother means, that is, he needs to be strong as soon as possible.

So that the grandmother can leave with peace of mind.

When I think of what my grandmother said tonight, it seems that there is something in the words.

On the way back, the two of them were silent, thinking about things in their hearts. The only thing that remains unchanged is that along the way, Bo Jinnian always held Song Yan's hand tightly and never let go.

It wasn't until he got off the carriage at the door that Song Yan Bo Jinnian spoke, his heart was like a burden weighing a thousand catties, and he spit out the words

is also heavy: "The important person I want to show you today is not my mother, but the imperial grandmother." ”

Song Yan knew that she still had something to say, so she didn't interrupt him, and let him grab her hand and pull her inside.

The moonlight tonight is very good, and a layer of clear light is sprinkled in the courtyard, and there is a faint coldness and gloom.

"Yan'er." Bo Jinnian called her softly, this was the first time to be called by this kind of intimate title, which frightened Song Yan and withdrew his hand in fear.

Bo Jinnian felt a sense of loss in her heart, and sure enough, she would only be willing to cooperate with her acting in front of outsiders, which made him mistakenly think that she had changed her mind.

"I'm afraid the prince has drunk too much today, so rest early." Song Yan said.
