Chapter 330: Dark night

The queen mother didn't seem to hear what I said, still staring at the bowl of rice soup, and after a while, she slowly said, "Do you like to drink this thing too?"
and also?
When I heard the word, my heart moved a little, and I raised my eyes to see the expression and gaze of the queen mother, and immediately understood.
She always looks indifferent and has no unnecessary temperature to anyone, but only when she mentions a person, will she break her calm and reveal the almost hateful atmosphere.
That person was the Queen Empress Zhaolie.
I do n’t know what happened between the Queen Mother and Empress Zhaolie. What made her eat fast for so many years and read the Buddha for so many years could not calm her hatred, but this may be the endless life in the harem. Resentment, every woman in the harem was originally a desperate beauties, but they also had to be enemies against each other, competing for that man who would never belong only to himself.
How sad and ridiculous.
The queen queen was silent for a while, then slowly recovered from the past, looked at me, and her indifferent eyes gradually softened.
She reached out and wiped the tears on my face with her thumb, and said, "You shouldn't be too sad."
"..."
"This kind of suffering, the women in the palace have suffered more than you alone."
"..."
"At least you also know that your child is an early bliss and does not need to suffer the suffering of the world; some people do n’t know where their children are, whether they are alive or dead, and hold a heart for a lifetime. I can't let it go. "
Feeling her skinny fingers gently stroking my cheeks, tears wiped away, and I gradually saw her pale and silent face, showing a kind of unspeakable sadness--
Who is she talking about?
Is it the Queen of Martyrs? The emperor had intended to pass on to the eldest son Pei Yuanchen, the eldest son was the child of the Empress Martyr, but he never appeared in the palace. Is this the case?
But why was her expression so sad that every word seemed to be a knife cut from her heart?
I said gently: "Mr. Queen ..."
Hearing my voice, the queen mother seemed to suddenly wake up, and retracted her hands, her expression became a little unnatural.
"Mr. Queen, what's wrong with you?"
"Sorrow, all right."
She shook her head and glanced at me again, and said, "Have a good rest, and the Ai family will come to see you again and again. The Ai family will also recite the birth curse day and night in the Buddhist temple, and pray that this child will be born into the poor family. For a lifetime. "
Cast to the poor and live happily ever after.
This sentence is really ironic!
After saying this, she got up and went out. I leaned on the bed and watched her thin and old back slowly disappearing into the morning light at the door.
After a while, Wu Yan came in again.
Her eyes were a little red, and she had a box of soothing fragrance in her hand. She said it was explained by the queen mother, so I lighted up every day and slept peacefully at night.
With that soothing fragrance, I actually slept better at night. I often fell asleep until dawn, not even dreaming, but just getting up in the water in the morning, they always saw that there were some residues in my lips Blood, I'm afraid it's coughing up again at night.
Shui Xiu, they are all very nervous, only worrying about the root cause of the nightly blood coughing like this, but I didn't find it difficult, but the cold in my body was much better.
In winter, slowly came to an end.
Although my body is better, the doctor kept me in the room to rest, and it was still cold outside, and Shuixiu always persuaded me to lie in bed and do everything for me.
Actually, I know there is another reason why they don't let me go out.
Although Shui Xiu kept hiding from me, every time she returned home, she could faintly hear her muttering with Xiaoyu in the yard. I didn't care about it until the evening of the day when I just sat He took a sip of soup and medicine at the table and saw a familiar figure coming in from the corner of his eyes.
Looking up, it was Yuwen.
Yu Wen walked in high-spirited and walked towards me with a blissful blessing: "I have seen Yue Cairen."
I frowned slightly, didn't speak, and Shui Xiu usually didn't look at her the most, so I immediately rushed up and said, "What are you doing?"
"Slave is here to deliver things." Yuwen glanced at me, put the box in his hand on the table, and said loudly, "This is the gift we gave to Yue Cai.
Jie Ye?
As soon as I heard it, I immediately responded-Xu Youling had been promoted to Jie.
Speaking of which, she is about to go into production, and it is already too late to be promoted. I only responded slightly, and saw Yuwen snorted coldly, then turned and went out.
As soon as she went out, Shui Xiu had run over and picked up the things on the table and slammed them on the ground: "What the hell!"
It didn't matter what she did, Wu Yan scolded immediately: "What are you doing! Talent is still here, it's your turn to lose your temper!"
Shui Xiu was so angry that his eyes turned red, and he turned to look at me: "Talent!"
I wasn't angry, but she just shocked me just a moment, and waved slightly: "I'm tired."
Wu Yan had been standing beside him, and sighed and came over at this time, and said gently: "Because the talent is tired, take a rest early." Clean up the bed for me and help me fall asleep. Then he turned and pulled Shuixiu out. Shuixiu made two wins. With a look of dissatisfaction, Wu Xinghu still scowled out of his face.
The candles in the room went out, leaving only a small candle by the bed, swaying in the dark night.
The candlelight was so faint that it seemed to go out at any time. I opened my empty eyes and looked at the candlelight. I wanted to see when it would go out, but after a while I felt that my eyelids were heavy and I fell asleep unconsciously.
Waking up the next morning, a joke from Jingren Palace came.
I heard that Yuwen's house somehow rattled out. She ran out in shock and didn't wear unkempt clothes. She also knocked down the queen who served the queen. Xu Jiechi scolded and knelt in the yard until now.
The words came from the little in the yard. Shui Xiu and Xiao Yu came in to serve me, and originally told me to listen again, as if they were happy for the festival.
I glanced at them, only shaking my head slightly.
In the end, it is the child's heart.
When I think about my age, I don't have such a mindset, so I would like to see them smile happily and arrogantly, although sometimes Wu Yi said that I used them to be lawless.
When I got up and packed the bed, Wu Yan went down and ordered the medicated diet. Shui Xiu was still smiling, but when he saw the corner of my mouth, he pursed his mouth again, and wiped it with a towel. Said: "Talent, why are you still coughing up blood, and those medicines that work too well don't work? So is Xiaoyu, you don't even know if you cough so much, it's a pretty dead body."
I looked down, and the white towel was pink again.
She wiped me carefully, suddenly as if remembering something, she bowed her head and said to me, "Talent, slaver tells you something."
"Ok?"
"This morning, at the time of Yin Shi, it seemed that the slave had seen the emperor."
I looked up at her and frowned slightly.
Yin Shi, when the palace doors are opened every morning, someone will come to collect the toilet in each palace. Only the mixed eunuchs will get up. At that time, the masters of each palace should still be sleeping. How could she see Pei Yuanzhang?
Besides, shouldn't Pei Yuanzhang be in Jingren Palace last night?
Shui Xiu also said, "But the sky is too dark, and the slaves did not look at the truth. Only the emperor was alone, and he disappeared in a flash."
"..."
I didn't speak, I reached out and touched the corner of my lips.
"Talent, you said, emperor he--"
I shook my head slightly, interrupted her, and asked, "Yin Shi, how did you get up?"
"Uh?" She froze, her eyes widened suddenly, and she said indifferently: "Slave--slave--slave is up, go to the latrine."
I glanced at her again, and she bowed her head with a guilty conscience.
I looked at her and looked at the dazzling pink on the white towel, and suddenly felt tired. I felt like I didn't want to continue breathing and just waved my hand: "Forget it, let's go on."
"Oh." She nodded, just about to turn away, but she seemed a little reconciled, and turned back: "Talent, emperor--"
"It was you who read it wrong."
She looked at me lightly, so she couldn't say anything more, she just turned and left.
I was sitting on the bed all the time, looking silently at the incense burner on the other side of the room. The soothing fragrance in it had been burned out, and only a wisp of light smoke struggling to rise from the inside, was immediately blown away by a light wind .
For the people in Fangcaotang, the day passed quickly, nothing happened, and it was another day.
When night fell, Wu Yan still brought me rice soup and medicated meals made in the kitchenette. I drank a little and did n’t eat much, and said to her, "I want to be earlier tonight Rest, you all go down. "
"Ah?" Wu Yan said for a moment, and said, "Okay, come here to clean up."
I waved my hand: "No, you all go down."
Wu Yan glanced at me and looked at Shui Xiu again, and finally said nothing. After a little cleaning, they went down, and the door closed.
After the candles in the room went out, there was still only a candlelight on the bed swaying in my eyes. Every night I was used to watching the candlelight, and then I fell asleep slowly. The same is true tonight. As if a person is struggling.
I don't know when it's head.
I don't know how long it has been, the night has become so dark that it can't be undone, and there is no sound of sounds around it. There are no insects and birds. The quiet night only has its own breath and a heartbeat.
I lay on the bed, staring openly at the drapery above my head, quietly.
Just then, I heard a quiet night, a light, light footstep, almost lighter than my breathing, came to the door, and then the door was pushed.
