The day I
was pregnant, I fell down from the steps in front of the hall, and the emperor hurriedly protected the virtuous princess behind
me.
The maidservant Qing Ling hurriedly lifted me up. I had colic in my lower abdomen. I thought it was sunflower water
.
My aunt immediately sent a doctor to treat me. I had been pregnant for more than a month, but now I had
fetal gas and had to rest in bed for the first three months.
I was about to send someone to invite Ning Feng, but I didn’t expect him to come.
“Mother changed your soup. I think it was her idea to make that day’s aphrodisiac scent.”
Ning Feng’s words confirmed my guess. Ning Feng and
I were married by pressing the head. When Princess Xian was still Miss Bai Fu, they made
a love affair. However, my aunt and the white toffee never dealt with each other. On the
wedding night, Ning Feng was so drunk that he said he knelt in front of his cousin’s palace for a day, and
her cousin also fasted for a day. Finally, Bai Taifei married Bai Zhiyue and Xianwang.
Ning Feng hugged my leg that night and cried, tears and snot gushing like a spring. I felt sorry for him, so I wiped him
with the red veil I had pulled off.
Ning Feng likes to tell me about his relationship with Bai Zhiyue, from acquaintance to private life, and then to
their own well-being, so that I can now recite it backwards.
Then he stopped talking because I was bored. Every time he said the beginning, I could immediately say
the end.
He kept asking me to tell him about my sweetheart. What
is there to say?
Say that my sweetheart is a remnant of the former Dynasty and a bandit on the mountain? After I
told him what I wanted, I asked him to elope with me, but he replied with two words
, “Take care.”?
The same is love but not, he is the two love each other by the stick, and I have been wishful thinking from beginning to end
. Ning Feng and I can’t help ourselves in
this marriage.
So we have a tacit understanding on some things, such as half of the bed, not interfering
with each other; he inquired about my cinnabar mole for me, and I cared about her white moonlight for him.
But we all forget that there is a queen mother above us, a queen mother
who is thirsty for Sun Ruo. That day, I heard that someone wrote a letter to suppress bandits. I hurried to ask Ning Feng about it, but I didn’t expect
to fall into the trap. After
the absurdity, I ran away and let Qingling cook the soup for me.
For more than a month, I have been avoiding Ning Feng.
Today I hid among the concubines, but I don’t know who pushed me behind me.
I guessed that too. Hurry up and get me some medicine for the abortion. I was distressed to think that I had to stay in bed
for so long, not to mention that I had to give birth to this child!
Ning Feng hesitated to speak and sighed a long sigh.
What’s the matter? We made three rules in the beginning! Ning Feng looked dignified, just like Dad
persuaded me to get married that night.
“Before I came, my mother told me that if you couldn’t keep the baby, she would let Zhiyue
go down with him.”
“I’ve been thinking about it, but maybe it’s not a bad thing. Zhao Guipin’s child is gone
now. If you have a prince in your womb, you and I will be able to live a leisurely life in the future.”
I gave him a dirty look, but he was considerate. Ning Feng and
I both wanted to defend ourselves like jade for our sweetheart, but the queen mother nagged in my ears
every day and wrote letters every day.
In the end, I could only wronged Ning Feng, who was lucky to have Zhao Guipin, who was born in a humble family, and raised
the child at my knee in the future. After
Zhao Guipin found out that she had a happy pulse, Ning Feng asked the Imperial Physician to consult her every day, and sent someone to examine the food and utensils carefully, while I worshipped Guanyin every day, asking her to have a prince in her womb.
Unexpectedly, in the end, Zhao Guipin herself did not live up to expectations. When she went to swim in the lake, she fell into the water and the child was gone.
In fact, Ning Feng’s words are reasonable, and I can’t refute them.
“Then promise me one thing.”
“I know not to suppress bandits.” Ning Feng sat down on the edge of the bed. “By the way, why do you, a lady from an aristocratic family in the capital, fall in love with a bandit in the mountains?” Ning Feng raised his eyebrows. This is the one hundred and third time he asked me.
“Why, do you want to fill the treasury with a book of words?” If I couldn’t move, Ning Feng would have been kicked out of bed by me. Can
you write? Can I write? Only the governor is allowed to set fire, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps.
Before I had nothing to do, I rewrote the romantic affair between Ning Feng and Bai Zhiyue and sold it. For a time, Luoyang paper was expensive. But Ning Feng found out later and took all the money away.
“The money seems to end up in the emperor’s private treasury, doesn’t it?” I punched Ning Feng in the waist, and he suddenly got up.
“Ji Tao Zhi!” Ning Feng covered his waist and gritted his teeth.
I looked at Ning Feng, who dared not move, and I could only stare. I said with a smile, “Now that I’m pregnant, please be careful. Don’t regret it later!” Rubbing my lower abdomen, I suddenly remembered that the imperial physician sent to Xianwangfu more than a month ago told me that Bai Zhiyue
would have dystocia.
“Yes, I almost forgot. I’m afraid it won’t be easy for Princess Xian to have this child.”
“Why are you telling me now?” Ning Feng’s reaction is within my expectation.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already given the Shuntai Pill to Doctor Chang, and he’ll give it to her
.” This medicine was given to me by my aunt on the second day of marriage. It can cure dystocia.
It is said that it is made by a miraculous doctor. It is hard to find a medicine.
Ning Feng’s face was a little pale, but suddenly he asked, “What are you going to do?”
“Are you cursing me?” I was about to hit him with the pillow on the back of his head. When I first
gave the medicine to Zhang Taiyi, I didn’t think I would be pregnant at all.
Ning Feng hurriedly stepped back a few steps. “No, no, no. I’ll send someone to ask for another one.” Get
out of here! It’s annoying to see you! Can’t he just say something good? I turned
around and didn’t want to talk to him.
“Just go.” Ning Feng said, the footsteps gradually far away.
“Wait!” I stopped him and said, “Go and get all the Guanyin you have in your private storehouse
!”
Ning Feng gave me a blank look and nodded absently. “All right.”
I hope Guanyin Bodhisattva can let me get a man at one stroke for the sake of my sincerity. Since I was pregnant, I have become the apple of the eye of the Empress Dowager and the eyesore
of the imperial concubines.
Every day, the queen mother would come with the doctor, and she would be relieved to hear that the fetus in my abdomen was safe.
From time to time, she took my hand and lamented that I had a hard life. She asked me not to blame her for marrying me and Ning
Feng. She did not forget to scold Ning Feng in front of me. After
seeing the queen mother off, the warblers and swallows would come in to see me in turn, changing their ways
and saying compliments in front of me, but they did not know how sincere they were.
Recently also started morning sickness, vomiting after eating, vomiting after eating, and drinking tocolytic medicine after eating.
I think pregnancy can be listed as one of the ten tortures of this Dynasty. The morning sickness was relieved a lot
today, and I went to sleep in a daze after drinking the medicine.
I dreamed of Zhan Xingshu, who was wearing half a mask to cover the birthmark on
his eyebrows, just like when I first saw him.
We looked at each other and said nothing.
Finally, I couldn’t help asking him why.
Falling flowers have no intention of falling in love with spring flowers. Why do they bloom in spring?
But before he opened his mouth, I cried and said to him, “Forget it, don’t ask.”. So what if you
ask him? It’s just to get a “sorry” from him.
I opened my eyes with tears and saw Ning Feng’s face.
Suddenly my heart was broken and I was frightened. Ning Feng leaned over to tease me, “What do you want to ask?”? Still crying all the time. With these words, he covered my face with a veil.
I wiped away my tears. “What are you doing here?”
“You should be glad it was me who came. If it were your mother, your rebellious officials and thieves would have been dismembered by five horses.”
He is not a rebel or a thief! Besides, my cousin wouldn’t just break into my bedroom like you did.
“Oh, my mother wishes I could sleep here every day.”. Would you like me to stay with the queen tonight, eh? Ning Feng came over maliciously, and the beautiful scene of that day flashed through my mind, and I reached out and gave him a slap.
Ning Feng quickly turned away. “If you’re so rude, you should be the Lady of the Stronghold!”
“If you say one more word, I’ll go to the lake tomorrow!” I covered my stomach and threatened him.
That’s all, let’s not talk about it. Get up quickly. Your mother is waiting for you to have dinner. Ning Feng stopped bickering with me and lifted the bedding for me to help me up.
“Why is my cousin here again?” I went back after lunch.
She has nothing to do, and now that you have it again, she has even more reason to set me up with you. She came to the Imperial Study and scolded me before she had read half of the book she had sent today. “Ji Taozhi, I beg you to finish your meal quickly..”
“Ew..” Before Ning Feng finished speaking, I vomited all over him. I wiped my mouth and looked up at him with a murderous look on his face. “Blame your son
, not me,” I said with a suppressed smile. At the beginning of the
dinner, Zhao Guipin came and brought her own fish. I
just wanted to eat fish today, so I invited her to have dinner with me.
When the doctor finished examining the fish, I winked at Qingling and asked her to clip it for me.
But she didn’t see it, and soon the dish of fish was all in Ning’s mouth.
In the meantime, I kicked him several times and asked him to leave some for me, but he ate faster. What was
even more hateful was that after he finished eating, he said, “My beloved concubine is very good at cooking.”
The Empress Dowager was somehow very happy. “The Ai family remembered that Chao Kuei-pin’s father was an official in the Hengjiang area
, right?”
“Yes.” Zhao Guipin nodded flattered.
“The mackerel in the Hengjiang area is the most delicious. Since the emperor likes to eat it, you can ask him to send
more to the palace.”
“There’s no need to make a big fuss about it.” Ning Fengdao’s face suddenly looked a little ugly.
Chao Kuei-pin thought she didn’t want to miss the chance to regain her favor. “It’s just a few mackerels
. I won’t bother my father too much.”
“Yes, if the emperor wants to eat it, how can he mobilize so many people?” I am also in the side
to persuade, after all, but I did not eat.
As soon as I finished, Ning Feng rubbed his ankle with the tip of his shoe.
Before I said I only allowed the governor to set fire, the people are not allowed to light the lamp, now he is only allowed to eat fish!
But in the end, the queen mother and I defeated Ning Feng.
I thought I could be quiet after dinner, but I didn’t expect the queen mother to let Ning Feng stay with me and let someone move the fold to my bedroom.
Ning Feng, were you a cat in your last life? Or the kind that starved to death. There’s no fish left for me!
Do you think I want to eat fish? If I wasn’t afraid of you.. Ning Feng moved his eyes to my lower abdomen. “I’m afraid my prince will have an accident, and my mother has been letting me eat.”. I don’t want to eat that prickly mackerel.
“Haven’t the Imperial Physician seen everything?”
Ning Feng poked me on the forehead. “You need to be careful about everything in the palace. What if you really can’t find out?”
I clapped his hand away, unable to argue, but with a look on my face that I was right.
“I hope my prince won’t inherit your brain.” Ning Feng crossed me and sat in front of the case to comment on the memorial to the throne. Perhaps he really wanted to comment on the memorial to the throne so much that he didn’t even notice that I hit him on the head with a shoe.
“I’ll sleep on the floor tonight. Remember to ask someone to bring me some more bedding.” The voice came from the memorial, “so that you don’t bump into the child…”
Although the latter sentence was spoken softly, it came to my ears word for word. After
listening to anyone will feel that Ning Feng is a considerate man, only I know best that he is vindictive, I have several times snatched his quilt in the past so that he caught a cold.
Ning Feng would come to my bedroom for a few days a month, first, because his cousin was always watching, and second, he could still have time to write memorials to me, so as not to face the concubines in the harem.
Every time after he left, I had to accept the envious and jealous eyes of the concubines, which was quite unfair.
Pregnant and lethargic, it was not long before the Duke of Zhou asked me to see Zhan Xingshu. In fact,
I seldom dream. Whenever I dream, I will dream of Zhan Xingshu.
I dreamed that he took me to the mountains, and I saw the wolf cub in the wolf’s den trying to dig out, but the mother wolf came back. Fortunately, Zhan Xingshu stopped the female wolf in time, and a row of teeth marks fell on her arm, and blood gushed out, which was shocking.
I want to ask him, if he doesn’t like it, why did he treat me so well?
As soon as I opened my eyes, before dawn, I saw Ning Feng lying beside me in the dim light.
In the face of hooligans, I usually do it directly, so I pinched Ning Feng’s face severely.
Ning Feng covered his face and woke up. “Ji Taozhi, what are you doing?” Shouldn’t I be asking you
that? Last night he pretended to be gentle and considerate and said he wouldn’t go to bed. Why are you so close to me now?
Ning Feng got up and said, “You grabbed my hand last night and wouldn’t let me go. I’m afraid I’ll throw away the prince who hurt my stomach..”
“If you don’t come closer, I won’t catch your hand!” I think I must have talked in my sleep last night, Ning Feng this fellow must want to eavesdrop! That’s how he knew that my sweetheart was Zhan Xingshu.
“Unreasonable.” Ning Feng yawned and went to sleep on the bedding laid on the ground. “Remember to wake me up early so that no one will find me.”
“I don’t want to call you such a shameless person!” I threw the pillow at Ning Feng’s back. Ning Feng turned around and caught it with one hand. Holding it in his arms, he closed his eyes and said, “Yes, I shouldn’t have climbed into the bed of the empress. My crime is unforgivable and I deserve to die. I beg the empress to spare my life.”. All I want is a good night’s sleep before I go to court.
When it was time to go to court, I saw the two pieces of black and blue in front of Qingning Feng, and then I saw that the memorials piled up yesterday had disappeared from the table, and I realized that he had not slept long. A trace of sympathy in
my heart was extinguished by Ning Feng himself. When
I came to my senses, the left side of my face was pinched by Ning Feng. I looked up at his spoiled smile and said, “Ah Tao didn’t sleep well last night. Let’s go back to sleep for a while.”
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes and pretended to be moved. “I thank the emperor for his concern.” The palace people around me all lowered
their heads shyly when they saw Ning Feng’s “deep affection” for me.
“You wait!” I mouthed to him.
Ning Feng’s eyebrows and eyes are full of pride. “Okay,” he mouthed back.
I hid in the quilt and rubbed my face in anger. After drinking tocolytic medicine
today, the almond candy in the usual room disappeared, replaced by a few
green plums.
Qing Ling may have seen my doubts. “This is the new green plum.”. A few years ago, there were no pregnant imperial concubines in the
palace, and the emperor and the queen mother didn’t like sour food, so they didn’t have to pay tribute to the green
plum.
Hearing that the empress was pregnant this time, the emperor asked people to resume paying tribute to the green plum a few days ago.
The emperor is very attentive to the empress.
I put the green plum into my mouth, sour and refreshing.
“Aya, remember to look me up when your future husband comes.”
Speaking of her husband, Ching-ling looks shy. “Why did the empress mention this?”
“You’re simple-minded, and you’re afraid you’ll meet someone unkind.” When I finished, another green plum came into my mouth.
Even Ning Feng feels good, it can be seen that Qingling’s eyes on men are not very good.
“Thank you for your concern.” Although Qingling was a little puzzled, she still answered. “The emperor also said that if the empress liked it, she would let the small kitchen make pickled plums for you to eat slowly
.”
The voice just fell, Ning Feng came.
Qing Ling smiled and retreated.
“What’s the matter, don’t you need to make a note?”
“How?” Ning Feng did not seem to hear my words, sat beside me and asked me, there is still
a little in his eyes. Expectation?
“How about what?” I was so busy that he looked at me.
“Green Plum, is it to your taste?”
I put one in his mouth. “Don’t you know when you eat it?”
Ning Feng’s face twisted and he hurriedly spat out the plum. “I’m not the one who’s pregnant.”
I was really confused by Ning Feng’s nervous look. “What on earth do you want to
do?”? If you have nothing to do with gallantry, you are either a traitor or a thief.
“I’ve heard of sour children and hot girls, so..”
“Really?” I thought about it carefully, and since I was pregnant, I really liked to eat acid.
It seems that the Bodhisattva really heard me!
“So?” Ning Feng’s hand covered my lower abdomen. I clapped his hand away and nodded.
“So don’t mess with me.” I said, pinching him hard.
“Why are you beating people again?”
“You bullied me first!”
“It is you who disturb my sleep.”
“It serves you right to eat my tofu and behave like a good boy!”
Ning Feng stood up with a helpless look on his face. My fault, I admit defeat. I’m going to approve the folding so as
not to disturb the queen’s care of the fetus. He said as he backed away from the door. In the middle of his
retreat, he came back. “I know you’re pregnant and greedy, but..” You can
‘t eat anything of unknown origin, especially from the empresses and concubines. If you really want to eat,
ask the people in the small kitchen to learn. Even if it’s cooked in the small kitchen, let the Imperial Physician examine it before
eating. Ning Feng and the queen mother take turns to say this in my ear every day, and I have already recited
it backwards.
Can you get out? The emperor I smirked.
Ning Feng was at a loss for words and turned to leave.
Although I have been annoyed by the concubines in the harem before, there is no one
who can talk with me now. Every two or three days, my aunt found out that someone wanted to harm the fetus in my abdomen, and Ning Feng
sent away all the concubines who had harmed me. My cousin
used to turn a blind eye when I left the palace, but now she has arranged a lot of people for me to follow me every day, not to mention leaving the palace. She is not even in the mood to go to a Imperial Garden.
I was really stuffy, and it happened that Bai Zhiyue was about to give birth today. After I knew it, I hurried to the Imperial Study.
“Why is the queen here?” Ning Feng was burying his head in reviewing the memorial. Seeing that I had not answered him, he raised his head and said to the palace people, “All stand down.”
When the palace people closed the door, he said, “Tell me, if you don’t go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, is it because your sweetheart has been arrested?”
Pooh, Pooh, Pooh! No, I didn’t. I walked up to him and said, “Bai Zhiyue is going to give birth. Why don’t you go out of the palace and have a look?”
Ning Feng drops the pen in his hand. “Okay, thank you!” He got up and patted me on the shoulder.
“I want to go, too.” I pulled him for fear that he would leave me.
“No.” Ning Feng took me by the shoulder and moved me aside. “It’s a lot of inconvenience for you, not to mention that you’re pregnant now.” He pointed his jaw at the door and told me to go back. I
must go. I’ll be sick in the palace. Besides, it’s been three months now, and the fetus is stable, isn’t it? I tugged at his sleeve and refused to leave.
“What will I do if my mother finds out?”
“Do you believe I’ll let her know now?” Ning Feng and I looked at each other for a long time, but finally he was defeated. Reluctantly, he let out a word from his mouth
: “Good.”
For the sake of convenience, I changed into men’s clothes and left the palace through the secret passage with Ning Feng. Trapped
in the palace for two months, leaving the palace makes people feel particularly comfortable.
“It’s good to be outside the palace. I’ve been stuck in the palace for so long that I even remember what every flower in Imperial Garden looked like
.” I looked up at the sky, which was not separated by a high wall, and could not help sighing
.
Is it? What does Hsia Ho look like today? Ning Feng lowered his head and said grumpily.
“I’m just exaggerating. Do you have to do that?” My left hand was held by Ning Feng
, and I couldn’t shake it off.
Ning Feng ignored me and pulled me closer to him.
Can’t you stop doing that? How decent
it is to see us two big men pulling and pulling on the street. Aren’t you afraid that people will think you’re as good as Longyang? I have noticed that the eyes of the people
in the street are very uncomfortable.
“Okay, I’ll take you back.”
I sighed. “Oh, I’m not a real man, and I’m not afraid.”
So, on the way to Xianwangfu, I was pulled back by him every two steps away. I guess
there must be an element of revenge in it. Once I
passed by the bookshop and heard two women talking about the book I wrote. “Why hasn’t a new volume of The Story of the Jade Emblem been published yet? I’ve been looking forward to it for more than five months. I don’t know
if I’ll be able to see it before then.”
“Yes, I’ve been looking ahead these days.”
“I hope Hsieh Hui and Hsiao Yu can have lovers and get married!”
“Yes, how well they match!”
……
In Yu Hui Ji, Xie Hui is Ning Feng, and Xiao Yu is Bai Zhiyue. Out of the corner of my eye,
I took a glance at Ning Feng for fear that he would be sad when he heard it.
Ning Feng lowered his eyes and his face was dim.
“Everyone in the capital knows about it.” He laughed at himself. The end of
Xie Hui and Xiao Yu is unknown, but he and she have come to an end.
“Actually, what will happen in the future is not certain.” I tried to comfort him. “In a few years
, maybe the virtuous king will go before you two, and you can get her close to the palace,
right?”
He bowed his head and smiled helplessly. “Ji Taozhi, you’re much
worse at comforting people than you are at writing.”. Promise me you won’t do it again.
I gave him a white look and ignored him. My good intentions were also damaged. Xianwang was the first prince with a different surname in this Dynasty. A few years ago, he had rendered meritorious service in defending the country, so he was granted the title of king. I
once heard my elder brother say that the virtuous king was loyal and devoted to guarding the frontier, and seldom returned to Beijing.
The last time I fell from the front of the hall, Bai Zhiyue was protected by Ning Feng, but she was also
frightened. Although the virtuous king was worried, he could only write back to the mansion.
Fortunately, Ning Feng found a reason to let Xianwang return to Beijing earlier, so that he could accompany Bai Zhiyue to
give birth.
“Won’t you go in?” Ning Feng stood outside the wall, as if he had no intention of going in.
“How can I get in with you?” Ning Feng leaned against the outer wall of Xianwangfu.
You can go in, and I’ll wait for you outside. Don’t worry, I won’t run away.
“Ji Taozhi, I suggest you practice in front of the mirror before you lie.” With that, he
raised his hand and tapped me on the forehead.
I rubbed my forehead and asked him, “Are you relieved?”
“She has a virtuous king. It’s not my turn to worry.” He closed his eyes, and the sunlight
, which shone through the leaves, fell on his face like tears. It was
late afternoon when we heard the baby’s sparse cries.
Ning Feng breathed a sigh of relief. “Go back to the palace.” Before the words were out, he led me away.
“Oh, I want to go somewhere else!”
“It’s getting late. Go back to the palace.” Ning Feng’s face is not good. White moonlight gave birth to a child, but it is not their own, this matter is a person will be sad.
That’s all. I’ll be considerate of him once.
Halfway there, he suddenly said to me, “Finish the Jade Emblem.”
“What’s wrong?” I really didn’t expect that Ning Feng would let me continue to
write The Story of the Jade Emblem after being stimulated by emotional injury. “Yes, yes, but you have to give me half
of the money you paid last time.”
“There was a famine two months ago, and it was used for disaster relief.”
Take the money I earn to relieve the disaster, I contribute, he takes the credit, really deserves to be Ning Feng! “Then this
time five five!”
“I am seven and you are three.”
Why was this man hurt by love not long ago, and now he has the heart to bargain with me? Just
as I was about to open my mouth, I confronted Zhan Xingshu.
He did not wear a mask today, and the birthmark on his eyebrows was covered with powder. As usual,
he wore a dark suit, which made him look tall and straight. My
nose was sour and I almost shed tears.
He brushed past Ning Feng, looking straight ahead, not half to me.
But my eyes could not be withdrawn until they were cut off by Ning Feng.
“Why is he here?”
“What?” I held back my tears and pretended that nothing had happened. “Hiss!” Ning Feng knocked me on the forehead again.
Really think I’m blind? You look straight at him like you want to cry or not. Who else could he be? Ning Feng looked at me and seemed to be in a much better mood.
I glared back at him. “Aren’t you going back to the palace?” With these words, I pulled him forward.
Unexpectedly, Ning Feng pulled me back, and I was caught off guard and bumped into him, looking up at his serious eyes.
“He’d better not think things he shouldn’t think, otherwise I can’t show mercy.”
I had never seen Ning Feng so serious. Startled, I said at a loss, “He won’t do it.”
“I’m afraid you think you know him well.” The strain on my wrist is getting a little heavier.
I pushed him away and felt a little uncertain, but I still said, “I know more than you.”
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became. Why did Ning Feng say that about Zhan Xingshu? I had never said a bad word about Bai Zhiyue, and even in front of my aunt, I tried to speak well for her.
Back to the palace, I quickly changed my clothes and left the Imperial Study, too lazy to manage Ningfeng.
As soon as I got back to the bedroom, I was busy lying in bed. Today, I either walked or stood out of the palace, and my legs were sore. “Ching Ling, help Ben Gong rub his legs.”
I saw the green silk a look of desire to speak and stop, scarlet from the cheek to the tip of the ear.
“Aya, what’s the matter?”
Empress, forgive the maidservant for talking too much. It’s a good thing that the Empress is now so close to Your Highness, but
if you have sex when you’re pregnant, I’m afraid you’ll hurt the dragon fetus. Green silk said, the head gradually lowered.
I heard it in a fog, and it took me a while to react.
“This palace does not have..” I thought about it carefully. As soon as I came back, I changed my clothes and combed
my hair in a bun and left. Moreover, Ning Feng and I had been out of the palace for at least two or three hours, which really
made people think in that direction. Qing Ling is not what you think, this palace and the emperor
are just. My palace has only been resting Imperial Study for a while, and the emperor has been approving all the time!
Qing Ling bowed her head and rubbed her legs for me, apparently not believing my story. What was
more troublesome was that my cousin came in a rush at night.
As soon as I arrived, I asked the Imperial Physician to feel my pulse, and my aunt breathed a long sigh of relief
when she heard that “the dragon fetus is stable.”.
I was reaching out to rub my eyes when she pulled my hand over.
“It’s all because of the Ai family. These days you’ve been so busy cultivating feelings for the emperor that you’ve forgotten that he’s
in his prime and full of vigor and vitality.” My aunt patted my hand and said,
“So are you. I know you are weak, but don’t just follow the emperor. You should also take care
of your own body.”. If you have been wronged, tell Ai’s family.
When I woke up from a deep sleep, I was still in a daze, but when I heard that there seemed to be a chance to teach Ning Feng a lesson, I suddenly woke up.
My son is all right, your Highness. I just can’t help it. Don’t blame him, aunt. This is the first time I’ve used the trick of pretending to be innocent, but I didn’t expect it to be easy to use.
When I learned that my aunt had gone to a Imperial Study later, I suddenly felt a lot of anger.
But after this, I was not sleepy, so I began to continue to write the Jade Emblem overnight. After a night of
vigorous writing, he looked up and found that it was already dawn, so he wrapped up the Jade Emblem and asked someone to send it to Ning Feng. After
a sleepless night, I fell asleep as soon as I touched my pillow. In my
dream, I was dressed in red, embroidered with Mandarin duck and pomegranate patterns on my sleeves, and embroidered with a pair of peacocks at the end of the group. In the bronze mirror, I was beautiful and charming, and before I could take a closer look, I was blocked by the red veil.
“Peach Branch.” The hand was held, and I could feel the thin cocoon on his finger pulp.
“Xingshu.” I held his hand, the other hand hurriedly lifted the veil, but saw the face of Ning Feng on the vermilion straight robe.
I suddenly opened my eyes, and it was Ning Feng’s face again! Why did
I dream about him? I was so angry that I stretched out my hand, but he held my wrist.
“I haven’t even begun to ask for punishment, and you’re going to start with the wicked?” Ning Feng pulled me up. “Yesterday I was kind enough to comb your hair in a bun, but you didn’t want to.”. As a result, people misunderstand that I have been engaging in prostitution in the daytime. Not only did you not explain, but you also talked nonsense in front of your mother, causing me to be scolded again last night! Ning Feng gnashed his teeth.
“I told you, but the more I paint, the more black I get. What can I do?” I pulled my hands back and said, “Don’t touch me!”
“Oh, I don’t have that kind of leisure.”. Now it’s time to settle another account. He sat down on the edge of the bed, took out a book from his sleeve and handed it to me. It was the Jade Emblem I had just written.
Had it not been for the murderous look on Yining’s body when I was pregnant, he would have slapped it on my face long ago.
“I think it’s very well written.” I still pretended to be righteous on my face.
“How good?” Ning Feng’s face darkened. “After Hsieh Hui married Hsiao Yu, he changed his mind and took four concubines. He abandoned his wife and son, and finally Hsiao Yu died of melancholy. What do you say to me?”
I nodded with an expressionless face. “When I saw the emperor slandering Xingshu yesterday, I thought how well he had said it.”
Hum, if you slander my sweetheart, I will write your sweetheart to death.
Ning Feng tugged at the corners of his mouth. “I’m telling the truth.”
“Oh.” I answered him lightly, lay down and closed my eyes and went back to sleep.
“Oh?”? Ji Taozhi, change it for me at once! Ning Feng was close to my ear, and the warm breath made my ears itch. I turned around and went back to sleep. “All right, then I’ll have someone write a book of stories about a woman from an aristocratic family and a rebel. In the end, the woman
from an aristocratic family will change her mind and join the emperor in killing the rebel. It’s very gratifying to hear that.”
“How dare you!” I pointed angrily at him.
Ning Feng looked at me with a smile and turned my index finger away. “What’s the matter, angry?”
He picked up The Story of the Jade Emblem and waved it in front of me. “Just in time. Today your elder brother reported
that bandits have come and gone in the capital recently. I thought it would be better to issue a decree to suppress them. I don’t know what
the empress thinks.”
As soon as I heard about the suppression of bandits, I was immediately discouraged. I took the Jade Emblem in his hand and said, “Can’t I change
it?”
“Well, write it now. I’ll watch.”
“No, you see I can’t write it.”
“How can I know if you’ve scribbled without looking?”
…… Ning Feng and
I stared at each other like this.
“Are you leaving?”
Ning Feng shook his head firmly.
“All right, your Majesty, don’t regret it.” As I spoke, I began to untie the belt on my bedclothes,
shouting, “Your Majesty, don’t do this!”! My concubine still has in her stomach. Hum.. Ning Feng hurriedly grabbed my hand with one hand and covered my mouth with the other. He really didn’t think of me.
“I’m going, I’m going, don’t shout.”
With these words, he took two steps away and let go.
My heart secretly proud, the devil is one foot high, the road is ten feet high, with Ning Feng also want to fight with me
?
When Ning Feng reached the gate of the temple, I remembered something and shouted, “One more thing. In
the future, no one can say the other’s sweetheart!”
Who would have thought that Ning Feng would shake his head at me and give me a mouthful of “no way.”. I was so
angry that I picked up the book and smashed it in his face. This fellow ran so fast that the book finally hit the door
. I slept soundly
these days and had no dreams every night, but Ning Feng always ran to my bedroom in the daytime.
Because of the misunderstanding of leaving the palace last time, Ning Feng could not be alone with me for more than a moment,
but he was still in front of me every day. At lunch
today, he came again. “Why do you come here every day?”
I whispered.
As a result, he looked at me contemptuously. “Thanks to you, it’s getting darker and darker. My mother thought I was
burning with desire and had nowhere to vent, so she sent over a bunch of maids.”. I have no choice but to come to
you for peace.
He came to ask for peace, but I was disturbed by him. Why don’t you go to Zhao Guipin’s? Chao Kuei-pin is quiet. As soon as
I finished, Ning Feng stuffed me with a mouthful of fish. Ning Feng looked tender and said,
“I’ve picked out the bones of the fish. The queen has a taste.” As soon as
I finished, he brought me another mouthful.
In this way, I ate fish for lunch. In front of the palace people, Ning Feng got a hypocritical face that was gentle
and considerate and doted on his wife.
“I was wrong last time. You weren’t a cat in your last life
. You were an actor who had never been on stage. That’s why you like acting so much in this life.” Don’t
you want to eat fish? For the first time in my life I have served a man. It is a blessing
for you. Ning Feng looked at me disdainfully.
Who cares! I have my own hands, so I don’t need anyone to find fault with me or feed me, and I ask
the emperor not to flatter himself! It sounds like I want to be a loving couple with him.
“I’m afraid you’ll get stuck with a fish bone, which will kill you.” Ning Feng said with a half-smile.
“Can’t you expect something better from me?” I picked up the teacup and threw it at him. Ning Feng
caught it all, but the tea spilled all over him.
“It’s a good thing you married me. If you were really going to be the wife of the Stronghold, you wouldn’t have
anything to throw away in that ruined Stronghold.” Ning Feng put the teacup away and said, “Wake up and Imperial Study.”
“No.” I refused without hesitation.
“The bandits on the mountain are not very quiet these days..” “Go, Your Majesty, I will go.” I clenched my fist secretly.
Ning Feng rubbed my face and his eyes narrowed. “Be good.”
I woke up and went to the Imperial Study. When Ning Feng saw me coming, he motioned for the palace people to step down.
When we were alone, he handed me a palm-sized wooden box.
“This is the Shuntai Pill that I ordered people to ask for.”
He had a little conscience, so I put away the pills and gave
him the newly written Jade Emblem.
I gave Xie Hui and Xiao Yu a happy ending, the reality makes them unable to love each other, so
let the people in the book fulfill their desire to love each other when they were young.
“I will never change my mind.”
Ning’s cover was suspicious. “I’ll see what I can say.”
“Then I’ll wait for the emperor to be impressed by my literary talent.” Since the last time out of the palace was mistaken for
us in the Imperial Study, now I and Ning Feng alone time is very short.
Seeing that the time was coming, I wanted to go, but Ning Feng asked me to accompany him back to the bedroom
. I quickly put my hand on my chest. “What do you want?”
Ning Feng twitched at the corners of his mouth, just short of rolling his eyes at me. “I just want you to send those
maids away and give me back my peace.”
“That’s a reward from your cousin. I wouldn’t dare.”
If I hadn’t taken you out of the palace, how could I have been misunderstood by my mother? The person who tied the bell
must untie it. Why do
you complain to the wicked first! When I left the palace, I didn’t go anywhere with me, and my legs were
sore and tired! “That’s all,” said
Ning Feng, holding his forehead, “if you help me see off those palace maids, I
‘ll take you out of the palace on the Mid-Autumn Festival.”
“Really?”
“Seriously.”
So without saying a word, I went to Ning Feng’s bedroom, where there was a scene of “the empress
being jealous and seeing off the palace maids.” Ning Feng pretended to feel heartache, but in fact his heart blossomed
with joy. While
I was waiting to leave the palace, two important things happened.
One of them is that Bai Zhiyue entered the palace, but she did not come to see Ning Feng, but to see
me. I immediately asked someone to inform Ning Feng, after all, the white moonlight into the palace, how to have to see
one side is not.
“My wife pays her respects to the empress.” Bai Zhiyue held her and Xianwang’s child, Fu
, and saluted. “There’s no need to be too polite,”
I said.
Bai Zhiyue smiles, she is the kind of gentle and generous woman, the voice is soft and delicate, the whole
person is like water, let a person pity.
“The virtuous princess has just come out of confinement. Why doesn’t she take good care of herself at home?”. Bai Zhiyue gave birth
to her son only two months ago, and the loss of giving birth had not yet been made up. Instead, her face was a little thin,
and Ning Feng would feel distressed when he saw it.
“Thank you very much for your concern. Wang Yeh has returned to the frontier, and my wife is bored in the house,
so I’m going to go to the palace to talk to the empress.” With these words, Bai Zhiyue glanced at the maid
beside her.
“Stand down, all of you, and say something to the virtuous princess of this palace.” The
palace people retired one after another. When
Bai Zhiyue saw the door closed, he got up with the child in his arms and made a big gift with me. “My wife
thanks the empress.”
I quickly lifted her up. “How can this be done?”
Pai Chih-yueh’s face was filled with gratitude. “If the empress hadn’t given the precious pills to my wife,
she would have gone to the afterlife.”
“You know?” I told the Imperial Physician not to say anything.
“After my wife took the medicine, she didn’t feel as weak as she did before. After she gave birth to a child, she didn’t feel collapsed. She was suspicious, so she asked Wang Yeh to inquire for me.” Pai Chih-yueh handed the baby to me. “Empress, give me a hug. Thanks to you, we have a mother and a son.”
The child was fast asleep, not yet open, small.
I held it carefully, which was also a joy for the fetus in my belly.
“The child is well-behaved and doesn’t make any trouble.” I hugged the little prince for a while and then returned him to his mother, for fear that my rudeness would hurt him.
“It’s just for a while. It’s lovely and noisy at night.” When Bai Zhiyue said this, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, and she did not see half a sullen look.
Bai Zhiyue talked with me about parenting for a long time, but somehow he talked about the Jade Emblem. I really don’t know that she also knows that I wrote The Story of the Jade Emblem, which is a little embarrassing.
“The empress wrote it very well, and my wife liked the ending.” Bai Zhiyue said with a calm face.
“Your Majesty, he really loves you.” I do not know why, I feel that Bai Zhiyue has put down, the heart can not help but some heartache Ning Feng.
“The emperor and his wife are just young and ignorant. The virtuous king treats his wife very well.”
“Won’t that be a pity?” I really do not understand, it is reasonable to say that Ning Feng can not stop the marriage, the only possibility is that Bai Zhiyue does not want to accompany you. I always feel that people who love each other want to be together forever. Bai Zhiyue shakes her head. “My wife feels that now is the best place to go.”
One side has been put down, one side is still resentful, Ning Feng is also very pitiful.
Just as I was losing my mind, Pai Chih-yueh said, “The Empress has someone else in her heart.”
I was startled and did not know how to answer.
“Don’t worry, Empress. I didn’t listen to what others said. I just noticed it from the words and deeds of
the Empress at the banquet that day.”
“Is it obvious?” I asked. The way
the empress looks at the emperor is not like looking at the person she loves. My wife had doubts that day
, and when she went to the palace today, the empress asked her what she had said, and she guessed one or two.
I covered up the panic in my heart by drinking tea. When
Bai Zhiyue saw my reaction, she said, “Don’t worry, Empress. I’m not a
gossip.”. My wife just feels that this is not the best result
. I choked when I
heard this.
Pai Chih-yueh went on to say, “Your Majesty is thoughtful and considerate. It’s not a bad
home for you.” I
was going to persuade Bai Zhiyue, but how did she persuade me?
Also, she said that Ning Feng was considerate? “He can really find fault with me.” I muttered in a low voice.
Bai Zhiyue didn’t hear me clearly, but nodded to me.
“Wow..” The little prince in her arms suddenly woke up, perhaps as a stranger, and his voice was very loud.
“It’s getting late, and I don’t want to disturb the empress to rest.” Bai Zhiyue coaxed the young prince to get up and said, “If today my wife says something that the empress doesn’t like, please forgive the empress.”
“How?” I got up to send her, compared to the white lotus white moonlight in the book, Bai Zhiyue is very different, she is more kind, but also more put down.
“My wife will retire.” The smile bloomed on her face, adding some vitality to the slightly pale face. Long after
Bai Zhiyue left, Ning Feng came over.
“Why did you come so late? She’s gone!” I really don’t understand why he is so indifferent to his sweetheart.
“Who?” Ning Feng asked, looking puzzled.
“Bai Zhiyue!” I don’t know if this guy is playing dumb.
“Oh, I’m going back to check.” With that, he walked away without looking back, leaving me alone in a daze.
Attached small theater:
Xiaotao: Am I the only one who cares about their feelings from beginning to end?
Bai Zhiyue & Ning Feng: You are the only one who didn’t put it down
. The
second thing is that the Jade Emblem has sold better. I heard Ning Feng say that the money
he earned has doubled.
Heard that there is a troupe changed into a play, but before singing was banned by Ning, he did not want
his love to be sung from generation to generation.
I don’t quite understand. Since I’m allowed to write, why don’t I sing?
But the most unexpected thing is that Ning Feng gave me all the money he earned, and Mingming finally
told me that it was 28 cents.
“So generous?” When Ning Feng told me, I was surprised and happy.
“I have always been very generous.” Ning Feng was quite dissatisfied with my question. “However, it is temporarily
stored in my private storehouse.”
I knew Ning Feng wouldn’t be so kind! “It’s ridiculous that the emperor should cheat even his own wife
!”
Ning Feng pretended to be innocent. “I and the empress are not separated from each other.”. Besides, I’m afraid you’re impulsive and unrestrained.
“Are you fooling the kids?” I said angrily.
I don’t mean that. I’m just afraid someone will relent and use it to relieve the bandits.
“Roll, roll!” I really don’t want to pay attention to such a shameless person, so I push Ning Feng out.
“I haven’t finished yet.” Ning Feng avoided sitting on a chair. “Yesterday I went to the temple with my mother to pray for you, and I asked for a Guanyin, who has opened the light to send you a son.” Have you
finished? Then get out of here. Even now, sending Guanyin down to earth could not calm my anger. I pulled Ning Feng’s sleeve and tried to pull him up.
“How can a person like you just fall out? You can’t even make a joke.” Ning Feng pulled his sleeve back as if to take something from it.
Unexpectedly, I did not stand firm, straight into his arms, the beating of the heart is particularly clear.
“Now you’re throwing yourself at me again?” When I raised my head, Ning Feng was looking at me ambiguously, holding a handful of silver tickets in his hand.
I struggled to my feet and took the silver ticket from his hand. “Who has the heart to joke with you?” I was embarrassed and my face was burning.
“Ji Tao Zhi,” said Ning Feng with a wicked smile, “why don’t we all put aside our respective sweethearts and live together?” “Ning Feng, are you sick?” I almost threw the silver ticket in his face, and this fellow actually
wanted to use me to heal his feelings!
I saw Ning Feng looking at me lightly, with some helplessness in his tone: “I’m still joking
..” With that, he got up and picked up the silver ticket and put it into my hand again.
I was even more embarrassed, and my eyes dodged everywhere. “If you’re always joking around, you deserve to be beaten.”
—
(more 02.06)
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are four volumes of fine clouds, thousands of miles of bright colors, and the water reflects the clear light. The fetus in the
abdomen is already five months old, and it is hard for me to pretend to be a man again. This time Ning Feng no
longer held my wrist tightly, but held me in his arms. My movements are limited
everywhere, and I am a little annoyed. “You’d better hold my hand.”
“There are a lot of people on the streets tonight. What if we run into each other?”.
Not far away, there is a small stall selling lanterns, which is crowded with people. “I want to buy a lantern
.” I motioned to Ning Feng to take me there.
Ning Feng glanced at me and finally took me to the stall with the fewest people. When I looked carefully
, it turned out to be a small stall for people to draw their own lanterns.
Ning Feng paid the money to the stall owner and gave me a lamp at random. “It’s only interesting
if you draw it yourself.”
I looked at the lantern covered with rice paper in my hand and was thinking about what to draw, but Ning Feng said, “Draw me,” with a little pride on his face.
Flashing candles were reflected on his face, and his handsome facial features were dark and bright alternately. It was the first time I had looked at Ning Feng so carefully in the palace that I forgot to start writing for a moment.
Had it not been for Ning Feng suddenly walking out of my eyes, I would not have known that the ink was almost dripping on the rice paper. Lowering his head
a little, the lantern is already in Ning Feng’s hand. I also know that my appearance is extraordinary, and it is hard to describe with pen and ink. If you feel embarrassed, draw something else over there.
I gave him a white look. “What a thick skin!”. Don’t move. I’ll be ready soon.
After a while, I drew the part below the head, and then drew the head according to the pig’s appearance on the lantern when I was young in my memory, while the other three sides drew some flowers and plants casually.
“It’s done.” I generously showed the lantern to Ning Feng, and when I saw that his face was black and blue, I added, “I think it looks like it.”
Then Ning Feng hugged me and left without saying a word, but he did not forget to take the lantern away. Most of the people on the
street were young men and women, and most of them came to set off water lamps.
The water lantern is made of sheepskin, which is used to worship the river God, hoping that the river God can make their wishes come true.
My mother once told me that if I wrote down my request on a piece of paper and put it in a lamp, it would come true next year. When I was fourteen years old, I pestered my elder sister-in-law to come out with me to release the water lamp. At that time, I did not find a pen and paper, and later my wish came to nothing. “Ning Feng, I want to release the water lamp.” There are many water lamps in the river, red spots, and the river
is also stained with a bit of red.
“What did I say to you when I came out?”
I had just annoyed Ning Feng, and I was afraid that he would refuse to take me to put the lantern,
so I grabbed the lantern in his hand and blocked it in front of me. I can
‘t be two steps away from you, I can’t go to a crowded place, I can’t go to the riverside. But
I just want to..
“No.” Ning Feng refused me directly.
“Just once,” I said, tugging at Ning Feng’s sleeve. “I’ll draw one
for you when it’s over. No, ten!”
I slowly took out the lantern and saw Ning Feng sighing and nodding at me.
“You are so kind.” I said excitedly.
“You will be garrulous.” Ning Feng’s eyes crossed me and hugged me to the riverside.
I specially asked Ning Feng to buy a pen and paper, and I was enthusiastically writing “May mother and son be safe
.” In the middle of writing, I noticed that my eyes were burning above me.
I quickly blocked, “Why are you peeking at me?”! You write your own.
“Just take a look.” Ning Feng withdrew his eyes and began to write on the paper.
Peeking at this kind of thing, of course, has to come and go, so I also turned to peep, but unfortunately only vaguely see the word “peace.”.
I was going to lean forward, but Ning Feng clasped my waist and pulled me to his side. “If you want to see me, you can see me. I’m not as petty as some people.”
I looked along the paper and saw that it said, “May the mother and son of Ji Tao Zhi be safe.”.
You.. Is that what you wrote? Somehow, I was a little embarrassed. “Don’t write anything else?”
Don’t write. Only you women are so ignorant as to believe in all these things. With these words, he reached out and pinched my face.
“If you don’t write, don’t write.” The ink on the paper dried and I put it in the lamp.
When Ning Feng was ready, I gave him the water lamp and let him put it into the water together. There were many men and women playing by
the river, laughing. I stood on the shore and watched Ning Feng, dressed in a black robe, blend into the crowd. The river was full of red lights, and the crimson light was reflected on his face, which was particularly soft. Somehow, it reminds me of the dream of that day.
The red candle has a high fever and is happy on the tip of the eyebrow. The words I wrote in The Story of the Jade Emblem still come to my
mind. How can I think of these? When I
came to my senses, I found Ning Feng coming towards me. I panicked and looked away from him. He said a lot of things to me on the way, but I didn’t listen and answered vaguely.
Then we walked in silence for a while, and suddenly he said, “Are you hungry?”
I was really a little hungry, and I didn’t eat much at the palace banquet because I wanted to get out of the palace.
“I want to eat hibiscus cake.”
He bought two hibiscus cakes, which had just been made, and the heat drifted out of the oil-paper bag.
I reached for it, but he took it back. “It’s still hot. I’ll eat it later.”
I curled my lips. “Okay.”
“I’ve heard that the emperor is very pitiful today, and the empress is very jealous. Recently, the ladies of the court have sent away several
groups.”
“As the head of the palace, isn’t
it pitiful for the queen to share her husband with so many women?”
…… Ning Feng and
I turned around and found that a couple were talking behind us. They
were discussing who was more pitiful between me and Ning Feng.
“Look at you, you beat and scold me at every turn, and now all the men in the capital are pitying me.”
Ning Feng raised his eyebrows and smiled at the corners of his mouth.
“If I make public what you’ve done, I’m afraid all the women in the capital will feel sorry
for me.” I stared at him and shouted to the couple, “It’s ridiculous that a man of seven feet can’t shake his husband.”
When the couple heard the sound and turned around, Ning Feng quickly pulled me away.
Ning Feng’s face was black and blue! Peach! Zhi!
I laughed so hard that tears came to my eyes. “Sorry, I made a mistake. You don’t seem
to have seven feet.”
Ning Feng pulled the corners of his mouth and stuffed the hibiscus cake into my mouth.
“Um..” I quickly took a bite and caught the rest of the cake with my hand.
“Don’t cry on the day when I shake up my husband.” Ning Feng gritted his teeth. One foot
here is the length of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and seven feet is more than
two meters. After strolling outside
the palace for a long time, my eyelids gradually became heavy before I entered the palace gate. Finally, I only remember
that Ning Feng carried me into the carriage, and as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw the familiar phoenix-patterned tent roof. After drinking tocolytic medicine
today, without a trace of sleepiness, I remembered that I had promised Ning Feng to paint lanterns for him
yesterday.
The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, and the lanterns are naturally not painted, so I simply painted a portrait of him.
“Ching-ling, find out the tools you used to paint when you entered the palace.” The Empress is finally going to paint. Since they entered the palace, the maidservants have never seen the empress
painting again. Qing Ling was a little surprised. When I
was young, I learned painting from my grandfather. When I first went to the suburbs to paint, I met
Zhan Xingshu.
I remember that the spring scenery was just right at that time, the birds were singing in the spring stream, the mountains were blue and white with dew, and I wanted to paint deer in the forest,
but the pen was in front of me.
When I saw the deer in a trance, a cold arrow flew towards me. I panicked and found
a poisonous snake not far from my feet. The arrow hit it seven inches. My feet
went limp and I knelt on the ground.
A figure approached me, wearing half a mask, with thin tight lips and a
bow in one hand.
He came to my side, bent down to pick up the snake, and turned
away as if he had not seen me.
“Thank you for saving me.”
He stopped and did not look back.
“What’s your name?”
He continued to walk forward without looking back. Seeing this, I quickly got up and ran after him.
I.. I’ll draw a picture for you, and I’ll repay your kindness. He quickened his pace and ignored me.
“Hey!” I took his hand.
He stopped and glanced at me, his eyes so cold that I couldn’t help trembling.
I.. I don’t want to owe anyone a favor. If you hadn’t said yes, I would have been haunting
you! It took all my courage to say that.
After a while, he nodded a little.
The heart is out of control, as if to jump on the rice paper.
“Do you live in the mountains?”
“How old are you?”
“Do you go hunting in the mountains?”
……
By the time the painting was finished, he had not answered a single question of mine.
But I didn’t give up and ran to the mountains every day. My mother thought I was crazy about painting. I ran into Zhan Xingshu once
every four or five days. Every time I pulled him to say a lot of words.
He ignored me at the beginning, and later he would say seven or eight words to me.
One day it rained. When I first went up the mountain, the rain was not heavy. After I went up the mountain, it rained heavily. I thought to myself that it was raining heavily now, and Zhan Xingshu would not come. I was about to go down the mountain
when I turned around and found Zhan Xingshu standing behind me. He didn’t have an umbrella with him, and the rain fell on his
face. He came up to me before
I could come forward.
He dragged me to the cave to shelter from the rain and made a fire to keep me warm.
“Why are you here?” We asked each other simultaneously.
I.. I thought the rain would stop. I bit my lip and lowered my eyes.
“In summer, the rain is heavy and the mountain roads are difficult. You shouldn’t have gone up the mountain.”
I buried my head in silence.
When the weather is fine, come back up the mountain. I’ll wait for you halfway up the hill.
I looked up suddenly and found that he had taken off his mask and his eyes were like stars.
I thought I was in love with him when I was young. I could stay together for a lifetime and sleep in the same cave after a hundred years.
I never expected that it was my wishful thinking from beginning to end. The night before I
entered the palace, I burned all the pictures I had painted of him; I had not painted
anything since I entered the palace.
Unexpectedly, the first person who made me start writing was Ning Feng.
I painted the appearance of Ning Feng’s water lamp last night, only to find that the
robe, which should have been black, was painted vermilion by me. I guess I was confused by the dream, so I quickly put the painting away.
On the day of my birthday, there was a banquet in the palace. I felt bored and left the banquet early.
“But the Empress isn’t feeling well. Do you need to send the Imperial Physician over?”
“No, it’s just that there’s a bit of noise at the party. Let’s go for a walk in the Imperial Garden.” After
walking for a while, he felt a little tired and sat down in the pavilion in the middle of the Imperial Garden.
“Qingling, how long have I been in the palace?”
“It’s been three years since I returned to the Empress.” Qing Ling answered.
“It went by so fast.” I stroked my bulging abdomen, and unconsciously I had been in the palace for
three years.
“Yes, you and I have been married for three years.” I turned my head sideways
and found that Qingling had long disappeared.
“What are you doing here? What about the party?”
“You’ve run away from your birthday party. I can’t run away.” Ning Feng’s hand covered my lower
abdomen. “I hope that in the future the emperor won’t be like you, who don’t obey the rules at all.”
I clapped his hand away. I’ve been following the rules for more than a month. Sooner or later, they will be
bound to death by the rules of the palace.
“Didn’t I untie you?” As my eyelids sank, I leaned on Ning Feng’s shoulder. “I want to sleep for a while.”
“It’s windy outside. Go back to your bedroom.” Ning Feng lowered his head to persuade me and moved his shoulder slightly.
“If you don’t move, I’ll rest for a while.” When
I opened my eyes again, it was completely dark and I had a cloak on my body. I raised my head and
looked at Ning Feng.
“Why didn’t you wake me up? Aren’t you tired sitting here all the time?” I was a little embarrassed to sleep
on Ning Feng’s shoulder for so long.
“Didn’t you tell me not to move?” Then he reached out and rubbed my face again.
I was at a loss for words and could only let him toss my face.
“After eating my tofu for so long, shouldn’t I make up for it?” Ning Feng withdrew
his hand with a smile.
“Just for a while, and I had your baby in my belly!”
“Who said they were going to paint me ten lanterns? But now I haven’t seen one.”
“Then I’ll draw it for you.” The last time I wanted to draw, but at that time I thought too much
and made a mistake, and then I didn’t want to draw very much.
“Keep your word.”
I went back to the temple with Ning Feng and found that the painting tools were neatly arranged on the table, but they were
not my original ones. “So you were prepared.” This guy is waiting for me to take the bait!
“Do you still like the birthday gift I prepared for you?” Ning Feng’s eyebrows and eyes are curved, just like the quarter moon outside
the window.
“I already have a lot of painting tools, and now I have even more.” I sat in front of the table and began to mix the
color ink.
“How can mine be compared with those outside the palace?” Ning Feng has a proud face.
“What’s the difference?” I looked at Ning Feng and motioned him not to move.
“What I send, I can only paint.”
“It’s not enough to face you every day, but let me draw you every day. I’m afraid I won’t have nightmares
at night.” I said in disgust.
“It’s better to dream of me than to dream of that bandit.”
“What?” Ning Feng’s voice was very low just now, and I’m not sure if I heard it wrong.
“I tell you how many women are waiting for me to come to their dreams.” Ning Feng’s voice was filled with
ostentation.
I gave him an angry look and bowed my head to paint.
The last time I didn’t look at Ning Feng, I was able to draw seven or eight points, so this time I did it very
well. “See for yourself.” I took the painting to Ning Feng, and he admired himself for
half an hour.
“a little more skillful than painters in the palace.” It was a long time before he said lightly.
“Thank you very much for your praise. I’ll practice more in the future.” I pretended to smile.
“Well, get up tomorrow and paint my portrait Imperial Study.” Ning Feng put the painting away with a look of heroic
dedication.
“The Imperial Physician told me this morning not to overwork myself. I’m willing but not
able!” I covered my chest and pretended to be sad. Since he was not addicted to drama today, I would
accompany him.
“It doesn’t matter. The queen can paint a little every day. When she’s tired, she can rest in the side hall.” Ning Feng bent
down and faced me, and I pushed him away.
I wanted to say no, but the words came to my lips and I swallowed them back. After all, I owe him
ten lanterns, and I should draw ten pictures for him.
Good. It’s getting late. I should take a shower. I looked at him with an evasive look in my eyes.
He nodded, not forgetting to say, “Come earlier.”
Now it is late autumn, and the morning is accompanied by cold wind.
The body is now gradually heavy, the action is not as light as before, but fortunately the baby in
the belly is very good, not how to torture me. Recently, the former court did not mention the matter of bandit suppression, so I rarely come to Imperial Study. The memorials on the
dragon table were still piled up, but unlike usual, Ning Feng did not bury his head in
the memorials, but stood in front of the table, holding a picture in his hand.
“Coming?” Ning Feng raised his eyebrows slightly and spread out the painting in his hand.
The rice paper was a little yellow and looked a little old. When I looked carefully, I found a pig painted on it
. Memory, instant influx into the mind. I was only ten years old when I
first learned to paint. After only a few days of learning, he felt that he had achieved great success in his skills.
My grandfather thought I was impetuous, so he asked me to go fishing by the river. When I
first started fishing, I was very excited. But left and right can not wait for the fish to bite,
the heart is very irritable.
“If you can’t hold your breath, you shouldn’t come fishing.” I looked back and saw a
teenager standing in the back looking at me with a contemptuous look on his face.
“Well, mind your own business!” I threw down my fishing rod and pointed at him, saying, “You
must have scared my German away!”
“Oh, it’s obvious that you’re useless, but you’re here to blame things.” He went up and picked up my
rod. “I’ll show you what real fishing is.”
I was so angry that I was going to make fun of him when he couldn’t catch it. As a result, before
a quarter of an hour had passed, some fish had already been hooked.
He put the fish in front of me with the fishing line, and the struggling fish made water on my face.
“See, that’s exactly what you can’t do.” With that, I put the fish into my bamboo basket. I was really angry, but I couldn’t refute him.
At that time, he was young and had a good face, so naturally he wanted to teach Ning Feng a lesson.
“Will you come again tomorrow?” I shouted to his back.
He turned around and said with a smile, “What’s the matter?”? Can’t bear to part with my young master? “Well,
I want to learn fishing from my big brother.”
Sure enough, that fellow is a casual boast, the smile on his face is more brilliant.
“Then the young master will be reluctant to come back for another day.”
So I went home that day, worked hard all night, and drew a pig on the lantern.
On the second day, I managed to stick it behind his back without anyone noticing.
It’s just that I didn’t think that the annoying and arrogant ghost was Ning Feng.
“Are you the arrogant one?” I almost blurted out.
Ning Feng was a little frantic. “Arrogant ghost?”? It’s obviously your trick, but you say I’m arrogant?
I avoided his eyes in silence. Do
you know that because of the good things you did, I went back to the palace that day and was..
Laughed all the way! If I thought the lantern looked like the pig’s head in this painting, I wouldn’t know
it was you!
“After all these years, a magnanimous gentleman like the emperor doesn’t want to haggle with a weak woman like me, does he?” I reached for the painting, intending to destroy the evidence, and now that I was pregnant, Ning Feng dared not touch me.
Ning Feng hurriedly took the painting back. “It’s never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. If you still want to destroy the evidence, your crime will be aggravated!”.
“I didn’t. I just wanted to see it.” I quibbled.
“Didn’t I tell you that your lies are really easy to be seen through?” Ning Feng hit me on the head with the rolled up painting.
It seems that I can’t hide anyway, so I have to admit my mistake. “So what do you want?”
Ning Feng saw me surrender first, and his face was like a spring breeze. “From now on, draw a picture for me every year on my birthday.”
I breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it wasn’t too much to ask. “Good.”
I don’t know why I always feel sleepy in Imperial Study. Every time the painting is not much, I want to go to sleep, and several times I fell asleep while painting. I heard Qingling say that Ning Feng carried me to the bed in the side hall. In
this way, in my boring pregnancy, there is another daily routine, that is, to make a portrait for Ning Feng. Day
after day, finally ushered in the winter, snow like the sky falling flowers, dancing with the wind. I met an old friend in the cold wind and snow. I saw Zhan Xingshu at the corner of the palace wall. He changed into the clothes of a eunuch
and lowered his head. He looked very inconspicuous.
Just for a moment, there was no figure.
I asked Qing Ling to stay where she was and wait for me. I hurried to catch up with her.
When I reached the corner, I found him standing aside, as if waiting for me.
I stepped forward. “Why are you here, Xingshu?” My heart tightened, afraid that he was really
like Ning Feng said.
“You shouldn’t have seen me.” The voice was cold, even colder.
“You shouldn’t be here. This is a palace. It’s heavily guarded. It’s
hard to get away if you’re found.” I tried to take his hand, but he pulled me into his arms, and then I lost
consciousness. When
I woke up, it was late at night. There were only a few candles burning in the room, and the light was dim. This is my
own bedroom. What about Zhan Xingshu?
I sat up, only to find that Ning Feng had been sitting on the edge of the bed.
“Wake up?” Ning Feng is a little tired. Why am
I in the bedroom? What about Zhan Xingshu? I asked, pulling him.
Ning Feng took my hand and shook his head. Qing Ling found you fainted to the ground. Fortunately, you and
the child were all right. Did you see Zhan Xingshu?
Could it be that Zhan Xingshu sent me back to the bedroom? But there were so many people in the palace along the way, and he dressed up as a eunuch and held me too conspicuously, so it was impossible not to be found.
“Ning Feng, tell me the truth.”
“Ah Tao.” Ning Feng put his hand on my shoulder. “I’m telling the truth.”
Ning Feng doesn’t want to tell me the truth, that is, the truth is far more than I can bear.
But in fact, I had thought about the worst ending between me and him a long time ago, but I never imagined it would come true.
“I can bear it if you say so.” But the tears could not stop pouring up.
“Ah Tao.” Ning Feng wiped away my tears. “I didn’t tell you because I was afraid you would be sad, but now I don’t tell you because you are sad.”
Eyes like a spring, how can not stop.
“All right, all right. That’s what I said. Don’t cry.” Ning Feng couldn’t stand my crying and coaxed me. The bandits on the outskirts of the city have been a bit rampant in
recent days. They have robbed the imperial tribute several times, and your elder brother has sent people to arrest quite a few people. Zhan Xingshu sneaked into the palace yesterday to threaten me and let me release him. But he didn’t want to. You recognized him before he got close to me. When he saw that you were pregnant, he took you up the mountain.
No wonder Zhan Xingshu told me at that time that I shouldn’t have come because I had disturbed his plan. So, dislike is true, and use is also true. I might not have come down the mountain alive without the affection of my former acquaintances or if Ning Feng had come to save me later.
“What did you promise him?” Only then did I see that Ning Feng’s eyes were full of red silk and his heart was full of guilt.
“It’s just a small thing. How can it compare with your wealth?” Ning Feng knocked on my forehead with a smile on his face. The more
Ning Feng is like this, the more I feel guilty. “Why don’t you tell me and let me know how much I owe you?” They
will not be held accountable for the tribute they have taken, nor will they release their people, nor will I be able to attack their stockade while I am in power. If I let the tiger go back to the mountains, I won’t be able to sleep or eat in the future. You must stay by my side all the time. If he calls in the future, you must stand in front of me. Ning Feng returned to the look he used to quarrel with me.
“Thank you.” As he spoke, he shed tears again.
“Why are you crying again?” Ning Fengjian frowned.
I threw myself into his arms and couldn’t stop my tears. Why did he tear him to pieces when I pulled out my heart?
“Don’t cry. If you feel uncomfortable, I’ll let you vent.” He stroked my back. The winter night was cold and charcoal was burning in the hall, but the temperature of his palm was warmer.
I pushed him away. “Don’t say that!”
“What words?” Ning Feng rolled up half of his sleeves. “Aren’t you happy that I let you fight?” With
that, he gave me his hand. “Don’t push too hard.” “I really don’t like it!” I pushed his arm away in disgust and wanted to laugh.
“Ning Feng, I..” I felt my stomach was falling a little, accompanied by pain.
“What’s the matter?” Ning Feng asked.
“My water broke.” As soon as the voice fell, I looked up and found that Ning Feng’s face had changed a few
times.
After almost a day of tossing and turning, the child was finally born, but I was fatigue all over, and
I was so tired that I fell asleep before I saw him.
I had a very long dream, in which I was left in the outskirts of the city, I rely on memory down
the mountain, but has been wandering in the mountains, how can not go out.
I wanted to open my mouth and call Zhan Xingshu, but I thought we were strangers now.
It was getting dark and the wind rustled the leaves. I panicked more and more and ran through the woods
until I heard someone calling my name.
“Ah Tao.”
I opened my eyes in a daze. It was Ning Feng.
“Wake up?” Holding the baby in his arms, he said, “We, Xiao Huan, haven’t seen our mother yet.” With these words
, he held the child in front of me. The
newborn baby was wrinkled and sleeping soundly.
“Little Ring?” How does that sound like a daughter’s name?
“In the small print written by the queen mother, the little ring is the princess.” Ning Feng looked very happy. “My daughter is fine too.” He added another sentence.
I have a headache, even a little angry. I had every indication that I was having a boy, and now I’m having a daughter. When
Ning Feng saw that I didn’t speak, he held the child in front of me. “My mother also likes Xiaohuan very much. I don’t think she will urge me any more these days.”. If you really like your son, when you’re well, we’ll..
“Who wants to have sex with you?” I gave him an angry look. “There are so many warblers and swallows in your palace. Let them have their babies!”
“Why are we talking about that again?” Ning Feng’s voice was soft. “It’s not easy to have you. I don’t have that much to think about.”
Ning Feng’s words made my face a little hot. “Don’t you have to approve the folding today?”
“I want to wait until you wake up.” Ning Feng looked at me innocently.
“Now that I’m awake, give me the small ring and go back to check the fold.” I carefully took the small ring into my arms.
“So I’m gone?” He didn’t take a step.
I nodded to him and waved him to go quickly, so as not to disturb my heart by staying here.
Since that time, I have never dreamed of Zhan Xingshu again. Questions without answers should not be asked again, and feelings that are wrong should not be kept. Forgetting each other from now on is the best ending.
Xiaohuan is very good and seldom cries. My aunt said that Ning Feng was like this when he was a child. On the day of the
full moon, Ning Feng gave Xiao Huan title of vindication. The name of Xiaohuan was given to me
. It was called Ning An. May her life be safe and smooth.
Ning Feng likes Xiaohuan very much. Every day he comes to see Xiaohuan on the grounds of meals. He stays
overnight for one day in two or three days.
When Xiaohuan was one year old, he caught Zhou, and Ning Feng specially put my brush on it. If Xiaohuan
hadn’t caught it, I wouldn’t have found it. On the day
when Xiaohuan would call him “Father Emperor,” he stayed up all night to show off to me, and I almost couldn’t
resist kicking him out of bed.
Ning Feng was born in March. I promised to paint a portrait for him every year. Naturally, he would not
let me go.
“This paper was bought by me with great difficulty. Don’t make any mistakes.” Ning Feng likes to nag in
my ear.
“If I make a mistake, I’ll be annoyed by what you say.”
“If you make a mistake, you can paint for me for the rest of your life.”
“I won’t..” Before I could speak, my hand shook, and the face of the person on the painting was
more vermilion.
Ning Feng hurried forward to look at it. “If you want to paint for me for the rest of your life, just say so. Why are you so shy?” I looked up at this fellow with a bad smile on my face, but I didn’t want to refute it.
At night, Ning Feng stays in my temple. Before I went to bed, I remembered clearly that we put a quilt between us, but when I woke up, I slept in Ning Feng’s arms. The
two of us looked at each other and said, “Ah Tao, I’m going to court.” Ning Feng’s eyebrows and eyes are curved.
“Hmm?” I looked away with some embarrassment.
“Your hand is still around my waist.” There was an ambiguity in his voice, and my face was burning.
I quickly withdrew my hand. “How did I end up sleeping here?” It’s never happened before so many times.
“It could be..” Ning Feng was so close that I could clearly see the tiny fluff on his face. “I think in the day and dream in the night, so I sleepwalk into my arms at night.” As soon as
I tried to refute him, he kissed me on the lips and let me go.
My heart was pounding, and I had never been so upset when I was doing intimate things before. I hid in the quilt and didn’t dare to stick my head out.
“Ah Tao.” Ning Feng also came in, caught my lips in the dark, and started a new round of strategy.
Soon I dropped my weapon and fell, and the warm breath fell on my neck. “Didn’t you say you were going to go up?” “Then I will come again tonight?”
“Get out.” I pushed him away and a light laugh came to my ears. It took me a
long time to stick my head out. I was in a daze. Thinking that Ning Feng would come back tonight, I was ashamed
to get into bed again.
“Ning Feng Fan Wai”
He grew up on a roll, and there was no struggle for the throne among his brothers, nor did his consorts interfere
in politics after he ascended the throne.
By chance, he met Bai Zhiyue. Bai Zhiyue, gentle and gentle, is the ideal
wife of a man in the world, and also his.
But Bai Zhiyue’s aunt competed with her mother for favor in her early years, and they were very unhappy. The mother was afraid that
the white imperial concubine would take the opportunity to disturb the harem and alienate their mother and son in the future.
No matter how he tried to persuade Bai Zhiyue, his mother refused to nod.
He made up his mind to kneel in front of his mother’s Shoukang Palace for a day. But her mother also showed
him her determination with a hunger strike.
At that time, the virtuous king was also interested in Bai Zhiyue and asked Bai Taifei to marry Bai Zhiyue. She finally nodded
her head.
Still remember that day, he climbed over the wall into the white mansion and asked her why she married the virtuous king.
He had thought that if his mother was determined not to do so, he would act first and report later, disobeying his mother, and the words of canonization
had been thought over countless times, but they were not engraved in his heart.
But in the end, she didn’t want to.
If the emperor insists on marrying Zhiyue despite the opposition of the Empress Dowager, Zhiyue and the Empress Dowager will inevitably disagree in the future, and then the emperor will be in a dilemma. As time passed, it was hard for the emperors to avoid estrangement and dislike each other when they knew the moon. If that’s the case, why not let go and let the memories stay in your heart?
“The imperial concubine has issued a decree to marry her, and she has asked the emperor not to come to the White Mansion again, in case it is passed on by interested people, which is not good for the emperor and the moon.”
In this way, he watched her wearing a phoenix robe and worshipping the virtuous king.
Still later, he was arranged by his mother to marry Ji Taozhi. On the
wedding day, he was so drunk that he was going to get away with it. But never thought that Ji Taozhi also had someone else in his heart like him.
He awoke to find himself sleeping on the floor with a splitting headache. Ji Taozhi, on the other hand, poked his head out of the bed and threw a bloody veil in front of him, revealing a snow-white arm with blood stains on it.
“Owe me a favor.” Only then did
he react and pick up the silk handkerchief without saying a word.
“Why don’t you get up quickly? The people from the palace will come soon.” Ji Taozhi had already got out of bed and patted him on the face with his hand. “Still sober?” For the first time in his life,
he saw a woman treat him like this. He was so shocked that he stood up. “I didn’t think you were a lover!” Ji Taozhi yawned, “I listened to it in the
middle of the night last night, and I didn’t sleep well.”. Don’t worry, I don’t like you either.
“Then who is the one you like?” He asked.
“You guess.”
Later, he kept telling Ji Taozhi about him and Bai Zhiyue. Every time he finished, he asked her
, but Ji Taozhi never said anything.
Until Ji Taozhi talked in his sleep at night, “Zhan Xingshu.” In the
capital area, people surnamed Zhan only lived in one place, on the outskirts of the city. The ancestors were merciful and did not exterminate the royal family of the former
Dynasty. For more than a hundred years, they were also very quiet.
However, why does the season peach branch have a connection with the remnants of the former Dynasty?
Every time Ji Taozhi kept silent, he heard one or two words from her sleep. Later
, he simply took Zhan Xingshu’s name and asked her directly, but she didn’t say anything
except to ask him not to suppress bandits.
He did not know that Ji Taozhi had written the story of him and Bai Zhiyue into a script, until that day Bai
Zhiyue came to him with the script.
Bai Zhiyue thought that the book was written by him, and that it was a means to save her.
But when she later learned that it was written by Ji Tao-chih, she breathed a sigh of relief. “The emperor treats the empress
very differently.”
He didn’t know the difference.
Mother somehow knew that he had never had sexual intercourse when he was sleeping in Jitaozhi Bedroom Hall, so she gave them an aphrodisiac incense. When he arrived at the Imperial Study that day, he felt something was wrong, and he heard the palace people say that he would wait for his mother to send some food to the peach branch.
He wanted someone to send a message to Ji Taozhi not to come, but Ji Taozhi did not know where to hear that he wanted to suppress bandits, and before his mother called her, he hurried over. Ji Taozhi has been avoiding him
since what happened to them. If she hadn’t jumped out at the banquet that day, they hadn’t seen each other for forty days, and he didn’t know why he remembered so clearly.
The Imperial Physician said that she had been pregnant for more than a month, and besides being surprised, he still had a little joy in his heart. He persuaded Ji Taozhi to keep the child, as if that was the reason why he should feel “happy.”.
Ji Taozhi is very stupid and kind. She really wanted to be an ally with him, and even Shuntai pills were willing to be given away. But it was not without principle that he promised her not to suppress the bandits, and he would not hesitate to exterminate them if the remnants of the former Dynasty had the opposite intention. On the day
Bai Zhiyue gave birth, he stood outside Xianwangfu and thought a lot. He and Bai Zhiyue are young in love, but now they have their own home, do not let go, is to let both sides struggle in the emotional obsession. On the contrary, discrete endings can keep the good memories of the past and free them. When I
went back, I ran into Zhan Xingshu. Ji Taozhi’s eyes were full of tears, and he just needed to follow him up the mountain. His kind reminder, on the contrary, frightened her a little.
He asked Ji Taozhi to finish the Jade Emblem, in fact, he wanted to tell her that he had put it down. The words in the book were in the past, and he was going to move on. But Ji Taozhi did
not notice it, and it was estimated that his mind was full of Zhan Xingshu.
He forgot when he fell in love with Ji Taozhi, obviously she was so different from Bai Zhiyue, but they got along very comfortably. They are always quarrelling, and sometimes even Ji Taozhi will fight. But there are some things they can only tell each other, and in some ways, they know each other best. At first,
he and Ji Taozhi played the role of loving emperors and empresses in front of people, but later, he sometimes couldn’t tell the difference between true and false.
Compared with others, he preferred to be his queen with Ji Taozhi, although she really did not have the appearance of a queen. But he likes it, and she likes it.
That day he cautiously told her that “joke,” and sure enough, she still had Zhan Xingshu in her heart.
He had never believed in ghosts and gods, but when he put the lantern in the Mid-Autumn Festival, he put a piece of paper in it and wrote on it, “Ah Tao forgot Zhan Xingshu.”. He did not go up the mountain
that day. He met Zhan Xingshu in a remote cold palace.
Zhan Xingshu asked him to lie to her, but he refused. “Since you love her, why are you so cruel?”
Zhan Xingshu said to him, “Ning Feng, you and I are carrying too much on our shoulders. It affects the whole body. We are not qualified to love someone regardless of everything.” Fortunately
, you love her, too. Be good to her. She’s fine. When Zhan Xingshu finished speaking, he disappeared into the palace wall. I wonder if I heard him reply, “I’ve always known.”
He finally lied to Ah Tao, and she cried in his arms for a long time, and he felt bad.
A Tao gave birth to a daughter, he has been waiting outside, from night to sunrise, from sunrise to late at night. When the doctor put the small ring in his hand, his lips could not stop trembling. It was the blood of him and Ah Tao.
Tao was very weak and slept deeply. Although he had not closed his eyes for several days, he was not sleepy. He wanted to wait for Ah Tao to wake up and tell her that they had a daughter.
At first, he thought Ah Tao would be unhappy, after all, she had been looking forward to her son in her belly. But he guessed wrong. Ah Tao often held Xiao Huan in her arms and refused to let go. The arrival
of Xiaohuan seems to make Ah Tao completely forget Zhan Xingshu. He was afraid that Ah Tao was just pretending to be strong, and several times he deliberately put the minister’s letter to suppress bandits in front of her eyes, but he did not see her look half abnormal.
Last night, he finally could not hold back, kicked the quilt between them, and held her in his arms. This morning, I used the greatest courage of my life to kiss the cherry lips. Tao did not resist, and joy welled up in her heart.
Today, he was busy with government affairs, and it was late at night after he finished dealing with it, but he never thought that she had not slept either.
She was lying in bed, her eyes were already blurred, but she didn’t want to go to sleep.
He reached out to rub her face and tuck her in. “Why aren’t you sleeping?”
“Because I want to answer your previous question.” She rubbed her eyes. Actually, I’ve wanted to say it for a long time. I I want to live well with you. “Mmm.” He answered her with a kiss on her forehead. When I
was young, I hoped to spend the rest of my life with my master, but I never thought I would fall in love with him twice.

(Geng 02.09)
“Zhan Xingshu Fanwai”
Zhan Xingshu inspects the mountains every day, every day. Until one day, he saw
a woman painting in the woods, with a pink neck and green sleeves,
who was not an ordinary woman. There are many snakes, insects and beasts in the
mountains, but she is defenseless.
He saved her, and she came after him.
She was like a peach blossom, blooming in his heart.
But there was so much between them that he could only let the seeds of love take root
in his heart until his heart was broken. On that
day, the wind is fine and the willows are slanting, and the spring scenery is light. She finally expressed her feelings to him. He wanted to say
“yes,” but he said “take care.”.
She ran down the hill crying, and he followed her quietly.
Later, he heard that she had entered the palace and become queen. Several times he could not resist sneaking into the palace
to see her. The hair was combed into a bun, and someone else was sleeping on the pillow, but it was much
better than following him. The uncle
below was dissatisfied with him for a long time, and even robbed the imperial tribute several times without telling him. He reported his uncle
‘s whereabouts to the court and cleaned up the house by the court’s hand.
That day he went to the palace again. He hadn’t seen her for a long time, and he forgot to stay away from her.
She found him, and she still couldn’t get over him. Short pain is better than
long pain, and it is enough for him to bear the pain of lovesickness.
Ning Feng anxiously rushed to the cold palace and carefully took her from his hand.
He asked Ning Feng to tell a lie with him and let her give up completely.
Ning Feng asked him why, because he was a remnant of the former Dynasty, and she was the daughter of an important official of the court,
the two were not a good marriage. It is better to let go than to persist.
He forgot how he walked back to the stockade that day. His clothes were soaked with snow, his face
was frozen with tears, and the cold wind was like a slap in his face.
The heart has fallen, and after all, there is only one piece of loneliness. From the day she was born,
Ning An was the little princess loved by everyone in the palace. If you get into trouble
, your grandmother will block it, and when the sky falls, your father will carry it.
Her mother taught her to draw from an early age, but she did not like to draw flowers and trees, she liked to draw the
good-looking prince. Her mother spoke of her many times, and her father spoke
for her, saying, “Little Huan draws the person she likes, and that’s all up to you.”
His father also secretly told Ning An that his mother liked to paint him best. So the father is showing off to her that his mother likes him?
Ning An felt that the mother did not like the father, because the mother always scolded the father, but the father always smiled and was not annoyed. Ning An felt that his father liked his mother much more than his mother liked his father, and he was afraid of being exposed, so he lied to her.
Last month, Ning An found a painting from his mother’s warehouse, which depicted a man in red who looked like his father. So Ning an took the painting to ask the father, the father was very happy to see, directly took the painting to find the mother, directly hung her Imperial Study. Later,
she heard Qingling’s aunt say that her father stayed in her mother’s bedroom for two or three hours before leaving.
On the Lantern Festival that day, the mother pulled her father to guess the riddles written on lanterns. The father guessed several times in a row, and all of them were wrong. The mother then guessed the father emperor correctly, but also damaged the father emperor. Ning An sometimes thought that the reason why his father liked his mother so much might be that only his mother dared to hurt his father.
Ning An didn’t want to see his father flirting with his mother, so he secretly ran to one side to watch the animal dance. After all, his father’s hand would only hold his mother tightly.
Ning An saw half suddenly found a good-looking uncle staring at himself, but according to her principle of beauty and kindness, good-looking uncle should not be a bad person. Ning An felt that he must have thought she was good-looking before he looked at himself.
“Uncle,” Ning An walked up to him. Uncle was so tall that she needed to look up at him. “Is uncle looking at me?”
The good-looking uncle crouched down and nodded with a smile. “You look like an old friend of mine. What’s your name?”
“My name is Ning An.” Ning An smiled sweetly at him. “They all say I look like my mother.”
“Uncle, look, there’s my mother!” Ning An pointed to the stall that guessed the riddles written on lanterns, looked in the direction of her finger, and found that a beautiful woman was reaching out to hit the handsome man beside her, while her other hand was held tightly by him.
The father emperor inadvertently turned around, only to find that she ran to see the animal dance, hurriedly pulled out the mother, through the crowd to pick up Ning An.
“Daddy, I just met a good-looking uncle.” Ning An turned around and found that the good-looking uncle had disappeared.
“Eh?”? Why is it gone? Ning An is a little lost. “And he said I was like him or something.”
That man seems to be.. Zhan Xingshu. The father seemed to know the uncle, but this was said by the same mother.
“Oh.” Mother said lightly.
“Actually..” The father looked a little nervous.
“I’ve known for a long time. Do you really think I’m stupid?”
“You don’t blame me?” “Reluctant.”
Ning An first saw the mother’s ear tips become red, and then saw the father smiled without
eyes, even a bit like the prince brother sent his own dog.
Ning An held her cheeks, and there was a trace of sadness in her young eyes, because tonight her father
would carry her to the side hall again, and then monopolize her mother alone.
