When I woke up, it was already dark, and dozens of palace lamps were lit in the room, shining as bright as day. Seeing that my eyes were open, Minqiu said happily: "Master, are you awake?" I was weak, nodded slightly, and asked, "Where is this?" Min Qiu said: "This will be in the side Fujin house." Sifujin sat on the edge of the kang and closed his eyes and recited the scriptures, heard the sound, hurriedly put on his shoes and walked to the couch, and said gently: "Are you better?" He added: "Xiao Man went to the side hall for dinner, I'll let her come over to accompany you after a while." You just have to live well and wait until your body is well repaired. I turned my face away, saluted, and said, "Let the fourth sister-in-law worry." ”

Sifujin showed pity on his face and said, "You are pregnant with a child, and the fourteenth master is not in the capital, so you really suffer." ”

For a while, a little girl said outside: "Fang Fujin is here..."As soon as the curtain was lifted, Xiao Man had already strode into the house, she bent her knees and saluted, only to hold my palm, and said anxiously: "How is it?" Are you comfortable? I said, "It's much more comfortable." As he spoke, a handsome man's voice suddenly came, saying, "Can I come in?" ”

My heart trembled, thinking it was Fourteen, and I was stunned for a moment before I remembered that Fourteen was now on the Southern Patrol Road.

Sifu Jin said: "Thirteenth master, please come in." Thirteen was obviously worried, his face was haggard, and he had been at Prince Yong's mansion for most of the day, but he hadn't even drunk a sip of water. He seemed to have only Rose in his eyes, and walked up to him in a few steps and asked, "How is it?" I smiled reluctantly and said, "It's okay." After a pause, he said, "Don't tell Fourteen about this, so as not to worry him in vain." ”

Min Qiu said: "Sifujin has already ordered someone to send a letter to the fourth master quickly, at this time... I'm afraid that the Fourteenth Master already knows. Sifu Jin said: "It's because I don't think it through." "I know what she says.

After all, I fell in Prince Yong's mansion, if there are three long and two short, Sifujin is afraid that he will not be able to bear the responsibility, it is better to tell the fourth master as soon as possible, if something happens, there will be a response. I understood it and laughed busily: "The fourth sister-in-law is serious, it's okay to tell him, let him worry about his stomach, and he won't have the heart to meet the woman he met on the road." ”

Sifujin sneered and said, "You are naughty, lying on the hospital bed, and you don't forget to joke." ”

I said, "Thirteenth Master, I have something I want to bother you. The thirteenth spirit was in a daze, and said, "Just say." "Since I moved out of my brother's office, my intersection with Thirteen has become zero, I can hardly speak, that familiar cordiality has gradually faded, and there has been a thick gap between words. I said politely: "I'm just afraid that I won't be able to walk on the ground, can you carry me into the carriage and send me home?" ”

Thirteen did not hesitate for a moment, and replied categorically: "Okay." ”

Sifu Jin seemed to be displeased, and said: "If you really want to go back to the house, I won't stop you, but the Thirteenth Master..." she glanced at Thirteen, but Thirteen looked at Rose intently, and didn't take her in his eyes at all. Sifujin continued: "Why don't I let the eunuch carry you into the carriage on a chaise longue, the thirteenth master is a husband and brother after all, you and him..." ”

Thirteen didn't seem to hear it, and said, "I'll go and ask someone to arrange the carriage, you wait a while, are you hungry?" Do you want to eat something to fill your stomach before leaving? I said with a faint breath: "I'm not hungry, I'll eat when I go home, it's close anyway." Thirteen nodded, turned and went out. Seeing that Thirteen didn't take his words seriously, Sifu Jin said unhappily: "You don't dislike it, after all, you are an uncle and daughter-in-law, so you should avoid it." Thinking of Zhaojia's previous events, my heart became more and more measured.

In my eyes, normal interaction between men and women is perfectly fine, and although I secretly made up my mind to keep my distance from Thirteen, it was all for Fourteen. At the moment, there is no man in the backyard, and the eunuch has a smell of pickles. He is strong, considerate, and knows how to take care of girls. It's just that he let him hug him once in a hurry, just to save people from fire and water.

I laughed: "It's an expedient measure, whoever likes to chew the root of the tongue will let them chew it, and the clean ones will clean themselves." ”

Thirteen did things quickly, and while he was talking, he had come back, and Sifujin was not good to talk about it, standing on one side and watching coldly. Minqiu wrapped me up and down with a cloak and prepared an umbrella to shield me from the wind. Thirteen was calm and calm, he picked me up with his waist and knees, and his broad arms were also warm, making people feel safe and reassured. On a spring night, the west wind blows on people's skin.

Thirteen tightened his arms and asked, "Is it cold?" ”

Crimson palace lamps hung on both sides of the corridor, and the dim light reflected on his face, chaotic. I whispered, "It's not cold, the wind can't." Then he asked, "Am I very heavy?" After I got pregnant, I ate four or five meals a day. He didn't look at me, he just stared ahead, and said, "You are very light, eat more." ”

I laughed, "Fourteen said the same." ”

Turning the corridor, crossing the stone path, out of the Yongwang Mansion, he put me into the carriage on the soft couch, without looking back, he jumped out of the carriage, and said through the curtain of the carriage: "I ride a horse, just follow behind, if there is something to call me." I lifted the curtain, stretched out my hand from my cloak, handed him a brocade handkerchief, and said, "Wipe your sweat, thank you for your hard work." Thirteen took the veil and walked back without saying a word.

Soon I arrived at the Fourteenth Baylor Mansion, and the Thirteenth picked me up again and sent me straight to the couch in the West Courtyard.

I tried to thank him, but he kept a straight face, seemed very upset, and left without saying anything. Min Qiu ordered the girl to make a pot of Biluochun to quench the thirst of the thirteenth master, but the tea did not arrive, and the person was gone.

Thirteen seemed to have lost his soul and fled from the small courtyard in the west.

He thought he could let it go. He thought he could just treat her as his brother-in-law. He thought that even if he held her in his arms, he would be able to sit still. But when her little face rested on his shoulder, when her breath hit his neck, when she smiled softly at him, he didn't even have the courage to look at her.

I am afraid that at a glance, I will collapse the army, lose my armor, and lose my sense of proportion.

His heart remained in the West Courtyard, and his body returned to the Thirteen Baylor Mansion empty. The eunuch in charge stepped forward and said, "Is it too late?" Thirteen snorted in a trance and said, "No need." ”

The eunuch in charge asked again: "Where do you want to rest?" The slave ordered someone to pass the word. Thirteen remembered that Zhaojia's family was walking away in the Fourth Master's Mansion today, and he couldn't bear it, so he said, "Did Fujin sleep?" The eunuch in charge understood, and gave the little eunuch a look, and the little eunuch stepped forward and said respectfully: "After Fujin returned home, he didn't eat dinner late, and he sat alone in the garden, and no one was allowed to follow." Thirteen knew that Zhao Jia's heart was angry, so he said: "Master go over and take a look!" ”

The little eunuch hurriedly lit a lantern to lead the way, and the flowers and trees were heavy and deep, and it was dark everywhere. From afar, I saw a figure sitting in the pavilion, silent, like a ghost. Thirteen made a gesture, the eunuch in charge understood, stopped and stopped moving forward, and the others saw that the eunuch in charge did not move, and they all stopped moving.

Zhao Jiashi cried for a whole afternoon, at this time he really had no strength, his tears were dry, and the resentment that he had endured for several years finally broke out, and he felt much more comfortable in his heart. She sat dumbfounded, not knowing what she was thinking.

Thirteen carried a palace lamp and slowly approached her, and for fear of scaring her, he deliberately made a movement first, and said: "It's still cold, don't sit outside for a long time." Zhao Jia leaned on the horizontal stool by the pavilion, twisted his body and ignored him, still silent. Thirteen lanterns hung on the pillar and said, "I thought about it carefully, and I knew that it wasn't you who harmed Weiwei. ”

Vivi... Vivi... Listening to these two words, Zhao Jia's felt disgusted.

Thirteen said again: "I was not good just now, I beat you, I promise, I will never do it in the future." ”

Zhao Jiashi snorted coldly and said: "Even Emperor Ama scolded you and mocked you, you can not be angry or argue, but for the sake of a fourteenth daughter-in-law, you are angry and bloody, no matter how angry you are with me, you... Are you worthy of me? As he spoke, two lines of hot tears rolled down his cheeks. She cried and said: "I understand everything you have been thinking in your heart all these years, but I refuse to pierce you and let you marry Fang Fujin and Gege, just to make you forget her." But you... You're such a! Ignoring his wife, ignoring the affairs of the court, and even the emperor Ama went out on patrol and other major events, as soon as he heard that Yan Qiangrose had wrestled, he ran out of the door in a hurry, and slapped me indiscriminately... When will you be able to cheer up a bit?! ”

Thirteen also felt guilty and said in a low voice: "I've embarrassed you all these years." ”

He stood in the light, his face pale and his head hung in annoyance, unusually depressed. Zhao Jiashi looked at him for a long time, but he couldn't bear to be too harsh, reached out to hold his wrist, and seemed to persuade and complain: "You can like whomever you like, but she is your brother-in-law!" No matter how many people you marry, I won't mind. Forget about her, okay? "Only she knows in the world that the source of the thirteenth master's pain is that he fell in love with his brother-in-law. Only by cutting off can we be reborn.

Thirteen hung her face, her hands trembled slightly, her mind crossed the face of the rose, she stood under the window by the bookshelf, butterflies collecting nectar on the branches, the sun shining into the room, she bathed in the Ambilight, smiling like a flower.

That's his favorite smile.

He opened his lips, eager to promise Zhao Jia, but he... I'm afraid I won't be able to do it, but I don't make an empty promise. The strength in Zhao Jia's hand became smaller and smaller, and finally lost the last trace of hope, and fell down.

The fourth master received a letter from Sifujin in the middle of the night, and he didn't dare to delay, so he immediately told the fourteenth. Fourteen was so worried, if it weren't for the Eighth Master to stop and persuade him, he would have to break into Kangxi's bedroom and tell him, and go back to Beijing first. He tossed and turned all night without sleeping, and his eyes were as bloodshot as a cow's eyes. Fortunately, he received a letter at noon, in Rose's handwriting, saying that he was fine, and he was a little relieved. Kangxi and his entourage lived in Suzhou Palace, and the fourteenth drove with them, except for the rose, there was nothing beside them. Anyway, he didn't see the undercurrent between the prince, the fourth master, and the eighth master.
