"Madam, the lime spits out everything."
Luo Ninghai's left eyelid jumped a few times, which was really a bad omen. "What did she spit out?"
"The big prince's job is to plant the blame on Ru imperial concubine after she finishes it."
Luo Ninghai's eyes flashed a trace of evil. "This traitor dares to touch the children of this palace. What else?"
"No more."
"No. There's only one thing you said when you spit it out?" Luo Ninghai beat the table angrily. "The palace is more interested. She has something to do with the state of Qin or Xirong. Didn't you ask?"
The palace man quickly knelt down and said in a trembling voice, "madam, forgive me. The maidservant was incompetent and used all kinds of torture tools on her. She only forced her to say it. Then... She bit her tongue and killed herself."
Luo Ninghai stood up in anger. "Useless things, go down."
"Empress..." the palace man added a few more words, "is it important that green lime shouted xuanxiao's name while half asleep?"
Luo Ninghai's heart stagnated. Isn't xuanxiao the person she meets every day? Is Qingning from Zhaoyun hall. But she entered the palace too early. She couldn't have predicted that the eldest princess of Qin would enter the palace.
The little princess's cry came from the side hall. Luo Ninghai stood up in a panic and waved to the palace man. He hurried to the side hall.
"Mother Princess," Meng jou Chia rubbed her eyes. Stretch out both hands to her, "mother imperial concubine hug."
Luo Ninghai held her in her arms with pity in her eyes. "What's the matter with jou Chia? Why is she crying so badly?"
"I can't sleep alone," Meng jou Chia blinked. "I want to sleep with sister Ling."
Luo Ninghai was stunned and continued coaxing with patience: "sister Qingning is gone."
Meng jou Chia looked at her incredulously. "Why is sister Qingning gone? I haven't seen her for a long time. Where has she gone?"
"She went to a far place," Luo Ninghai said lightly. "She can't come back."
"Why does she want to go to a place where she can't come back," Meng jou Chia looked confused. "Does she want jou Chia and her mother's concubine?"
"Yes," Luo Ninghai smiled and nodded, "she doesn't want us. Just because she doesn't want us, the mother imperial concubine sent her to a place where she can't come back."
Meng jou Chia covered her mouth in surprise.
"Jou Chia won't want her mother, will she?"
"No," Meng jou Chia quickly shook her head and kissed her face. "I will never want my mother's concubine."
Luo Ninghai smiled happily and hugged her daughter more tightly. "Then roujia won't think of lime. She'll think of her mother's concubine in the future."
Meng jou Chia gave a clever answer and said with a sweet smile, "jou Chia is sleeping with her mother today."
Luo Ninghai readily agreed, "jou Chia will go to bed early today and learn painting with her teacher tomorrow."
This is the 70th day after Chu Zongge left. Xue ronghua touched the Red Phoenix Pendant in his hand. He remembered that day when he cut his palm but was afraid that she would be hurt.
She still remembers that when he cut his palm, there was no fear or pain in his eyes. They were all radiant, determined and calm. Like an infatuated boy who was willing to be a medicine guide for his wife, he didn't have to do anything. However, he still contributed his blood to her, infiltrated into this green and transparent Phoenix, and only wished to be able to blend with her flesh and blood, Become this eternal existence and accompany her who is still enduring humiliation in a foreign country.
Xue ronghua's lips raised a smile with three sweets and seven sorrows. In fact, the best witness of the integration of blood and flesh between husband and wife is the child born after love, which is the symbol of their love crystallization. However, the mountains and waters are far away. I don't know if I can wait until the day when I return, become his wife and give birth to a child with real integration of blood and flesh for him.
After returning, Xue ronghua couldn't help chewing these two words gently. Such a beautiful word always carries too many expectations. I don't know whether these visions and hopes can be realized. Let her cross the mountains and rivers between the two, throw herself into his arms, and marry into Duanwang's house as he hopes to become his wife.
"What are you thinking?" Rosie pushed her head and joked. "You're not thinking about the king."
Xue ronghua snorted coldly, "if you can think of general Luo, can't I think of the king?"
"I don't think about general Luo all the time," said Rosie with a smile on her lips. "Sometimes I think about my family. Is your family still in the world?"
"Mine?" Xue ronghua thought of Mu Jiajun and replied, "I'm the miss of the prime minister's residence of the state of Qin, and my father is the prime minister."
Rosie covered her mouth in surprise. "It turns out that your family has such a high status and is still a lady of the aristocratic family. I think you look like a civilian."
Xue ronghua smiled and said, "in fact, I'm the concubine of the prime minister's family. Later, after some changes, I became the first lady."
Rosie whispered, "well, that's better than me. I'm still the adopted daughter of the Luo family. They've never admitted me out of their adoptive father and mother."
"It's better to admit that you are general Luo's wife than to admit that you are Luo's daughter," Xue ronghua patted her on the shoulder. "Princess de has promised to send you outside the palace to meet general Luo. You don't have to worry about this problem anymore."
"Yes," said Rosie with a light look on her face. "It's strange that the princess suddenly figured it out. I suspect there is fraud."
"You don't have to worry. Princess de loves her brother no matter what. You can't really let general Luo live alone."
Rosie lowered her eyes. "Even if I can't get out, I don't want him to live alone. I'll just bear such a thing. I still want him to get a lover and enjoy the happiness of his family after many years."
"His family happiness also needs you to fulfill it," Xue ronghua comforted. "The key for two people to be together is to have their own hearts in each other. You should believe in yourself and him."
Rosie nodded, took out the silk handkerchief for writing poetry, smiled and said, "I will always have him in my heart."
The peach blossom forest in the Imperial Garden opened one after another, like red clouds hanging over the horizon. Xiao Yi broke several peach flowers stained with dew and went back to Huayang palace to dedicate them to imperial concubine Ru, but he saw the emperor's imperial driving at the gate of the palace.
Xiaoyi saluted with a smile and said, "please see the emperor."
Meng Qianzhong looked at her and saw the beautiful peach blossoms in her arms. He smiled and said, "when have the peach blossoms opened? Did you pick them from the imperial garden?"
Xiaoyi said with a smile, "yes, it's for the imperial concubine."
"Yes, it's the female official favored by the imperial concubine," Meng Qian focused on the vase in front of her. "Take this bottle and put some water in it. It can be regarded as the first spring in Huayang palace."
Xiao Yi took the bottle, filled it with water, carefully put the peach blossom branches in, took it to the table and put it in front of the emperor.
Meng Qianzhong looked at the peach blossoms with satisfaction and was immediately happy. "The imperial concubine is not in the palace now. I don't know where she went. Didn't she tell you?"
Little Yi shook her head and said, "my mother didn't say it, and I don't know where she went."
Meng Qianzhong sighed, "it's a coincidence that I came here once and she wasn't here. You must tell your mother. Don't let her complain that I ignored her again."
"Yes," Xiao Yi lowered her eyes, "the maid must tell her mother."
"You also know the temperament of the imperial concubine. You take good care of her," Meng Qianzhong said with a smile. "You were just a maid before, but now you are promoted to a female official?"
"Thank you for your kindness. I promoted my maidservant to a female official."
Meng Qianzhong laughed and said, "will I call you aunt in the future?"
Xiao Yi was amused by him, but he didn't dare to say anything, "Emperor... Maidservants don't dare..."
"I'm just kidding. Don't be nervous," Meng Qianzhong looked at the peach blossom again. "I haven't been to the peach forest in the imperial garden for a long time. I remember there were white peach blossoms before, right?"
"Yes, several peach trees with white and pink flowers have been cut down, but some are still in full bloom. My mother likes red, so my maidservant specially picked the red one and sent it."
"She doesn't like red very much. It's just that the meaning of red is different," Meng Qianchong curved his lips. "Is your master good to you?"
"My mother is very kind to me. I have never met such a master again," said Xiao Yi, lowering her head and showing an agate hairpin in her bun. "This is what my mother gave me."
Meng Qian glanced again and said faintly, "that's good. The imperial concubine sometimes has a bad temper. Just take care of it. Does she know that two new imperial concubines will come in the palace?"
"My mother knows."
"I guess she's also very angry," Meng Qianzhong pulled off a peach petal. "She's sick, so it's not suitable to be angry again. Just ask her to get well."
Xiao Yi nodded slightly: "yes."
Meng Qianzhong stood up leisurely, "well, I should go too. I can't delay the government affairs in the study. Several ministers are waiting for me..."
"What are you two talking about?"
The voice took a lazy and long tone. As soon as I heard it, I knew it was like a noble princess. Meng Qianchong put his hand behind his back and said with a slight smile: "where have you been? I've been waiting in the palace for a long time. When I see the female official around you here, I'll talk to her."
Su Rushan glared at Xiao Yi discontentedly and said in some embarrassment, "I didn't know you would come, and I didn't say it in advance. It's like this. I can't come out to meet you."
"Yes, I didn't say it first," Meng Qian wound around her and looked at her face. "I just came to see you through Huayang palace. I still have memorials to approve. Go back to the study first."
Su Rushan didn't stop him either. He hurried out from here to there. He just gave a stiff salute, but his eyes were on Xiao Yi at the table.
"What gossip did you have with the emperor?" Su Rushuang looked at her suspiciously. "You didn't say something you shouldn't say."
Xiao Yi quickly dispelled her doubts. "Don't worry, madam. I know what I've just told the emperor. The emperor asked me about some peach blossoms."
Su Rushuang saw the peach blossom branch in the bottle on the table, nodded and said, "your peach blossom is good. It's the first tree in spring."
Xiao Yi smiled and said, "not only the first tree, but also the one with the most bright color."
"Just look at the beautiful color," Su Rushuang said with a smile after touching the petals with some drops of water. "It's done well. I like it very much."
