Chapter 2241: This is how you grow old

Early the next morning, Nan Yan got up early and asked Ran Xiaoyu to comb her hair while sitting in front of the dressing table, "How many days is the funeral today?"
Ran Xiaoyu said, "It's the third day."
"..."
"After today, officials outside Beijing can take off their mourning clothes. However, the hundreds of civil and military officials in the capital still have to wear mourning clothes. They can take off after a month, and they have to wear plain clothes for a hundred days."
"..."
"No matter how big or small officials or ordinary people are, they are not allowed to sing, dance, and sacrifice."
Nan Yan nodded and asked, "Is it right that after today, the princes and wives of Sishanmen can go home?"
"Exactly."
Nan Yan said, "Let Nianqiu go to the ward of Sishanmen. Mrs. Xu will not go back for now. Tonight, His Royal Highness Wei will entertain her and their Xu family members in Chengqian Palace."
"Yes."
Ran Xiaoyu immediately spread the word out, Nian Qiu responded, and ran out in a hurry.
Ran Xiaoyu combed her hair and asked, "Well, what about General Xu Daxing and the brother of Empress Daxing?"
South Yandao: "Wang Wei will spread the word over there."
"Oh."
After a while, the hair was combed, and Nan Yan looked around at herself in the mirror.
Suddenly smiled faintly, and said, "I'm getting older."
When Ran Xiaoyu heard this, he immediately said: "The mother said nonsense."
"is not it,"
While talking, Nan Yan looked at the familiar but unfamiliar face in the mirror. He pointed to his cheek and said, "Look here, little by little, there are spots."
Ran Xiaoyu also glanced at her.
Just said: "After all, the empress has already been pregnant with her third child and gave birth to her second child."
"..."
"The other mothers have a darkened face, but the empress has only a little spot. Let Aunt Tongyun give her some medicine, and it will disappear after taking it."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "How easy is it."
Aunt Tongyun came in with a cup of hot tea. Hearing this, she hurriedly said: "The lady is not anxious. It's okay to get rid of this spot, but it will take a while."
South flue: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether it can be eliminated."
"..."
"My palace, I didn't rely on this face originally..."
Having said that, she himself hesitated for a moment.
Of course she knows that in this harem, she is not a stunning beauty, only Qin Ruolan is the overwhelming country, Zhu Fengruo is really indulging in beauty, and would not choose herself.
It's just that a woman is a person who pleases herself, and she started to care a little.
After looking in the mirror for a long time, he still said: "Can it really be eliminated?"
Aunt Tongyun and Ran Xiaoyu looked at each other and said softly,
It’s really possible. In fact, there are many prescriptions circulating in the harem that can make the skin white and smooth. Don't pay attention to that."
Nan Yan said helplessly: "Before, it was because of being young."
"..."
"It can't be anymore now. With a handful of young and tender women in the palace, there are already two children in this palace. Where would you dare to pretend to be small?"
Think about it last time, to act like a baby with Zhu Feng, he said that he is already the child's mother, so he is embarrassed to act like a baby.
She was embarrassed.
Hearing her say this, Aunt Tongyun and Ran Xiaoyu were more cautious.
You know, age is a very sensitive and dangerous topic for women in the harem.
The young girl enters the palace, and she is as fresh as a spring onion, which is naturally a big advantage. Among other things, Nan Yan himself is ten years younger than Zhu Feng. Feeling soft, Zhu Feng seems to like it very much.
But now, as the mother of two children, if you want to act like a baby, not to mention whether it makes sense, you must first consider whether you are suitable for your age and identity.
A concubine younger than her is worth a lot.
Once the concubine realizes the problem of age, it really indicates that his youth has passed.
I felt that they were all silent.
Nan Yan looked back and saw that Aunt Tongyun and Ran Xiaoyu were both cautious, she couldn't help but laugh, and said, "You don't have to be like this."
"..."
"I don't care too much either."
"..."
"Actually, when you get old, you get old, and people are not monsters, how can they not be old?"
"..."
"Besides, if I'm old, wouldn't the emperor be even more--"
Having said this, she remembered something and said, "You don’t know, when I was sitting there with the emperor that day, I saw something gleaming on his sideburns. I only found out later that it was A white hair."
"..."
"He has gray hair too."
Aunt Tongyun hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "Niang Niang said carefully."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry, this palace will also tell you."
While she was talking, she turned her head and looked at herself in the mirror. Indeed, when she first entered the palace and when she was next to Zhu Feng, she was young and tender, and her expression was different from her innocent self. Now she, There is no longer innocence in his eyes, but a little gloomy.
Probably it's something to think about, too much to count.
I'm not old, it's strange.
She looked in the mirror and said calmly: "I am not afraid of old age at all, nor the emperor's old age."
"..."
"Sometimes, I hope that the time will pass quickly, and all the worries, sorrows, and even all the difficulties in the middle will be eliminated, and I will be old soon."
"..."
"However, I would think again, if everything is so slightly passed, in the future, what will become the old age?"
"..."
"It doesn't matter if the hair grows gray when you grow old."
"..."
"It's just that we have to go hand in hand during these years when our hair turns white, and go through all the wind and rain without giving up or separating. This is what we call whiteheads grow old."
Aunt Tongyun smiled a little when she heard this.
Said: "The empress really understands."
"..."
"Other concubines, I'm afraid I can't wait for the final result. The difficulties in the middle, if you can hide, you can hide; only the mother understands that the result is false, and the passing is true."
Nan Yan glanced at her and smiled.
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside. Several people turned their heads and saw that Nianqiu ran back in a hurry, bowed to Nanyan, and said, "Manny, something happened at Sishanmen." Up."
"Oh?"
When Nan Yan heard it, his eyebrows frowned.
What happened to Sishanmen?
She asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"
Nianqiu took a sigh of relief and said: "Early this morning, Empress Xi sent the little next to her to be able to go to Sishanmen to take care of the crying prince's wife. As a result, she met the little next to Shen Jieyu. Eunuch Dou'er. I don't know what the two people said, so they beat Dou'er."
