Unlike Luo Huixin's carefree, Gao Xiuyi is a very sensitive girl. Especially in these days, she has been quiet a lot, thinking that things are deeper than Luo Hui's heart.

The Queen Mother said calmly: "It is not important for Ai Jia to call you over. It's just that Ai Jia heard that Xie Jia Xiao Nizi is sick. You and her are close friends. Do you know what her body is like? How is it?"

Was it for this? Gao Xiuyi was suspicious. Although Xie Yunqing used to enter the palace before, the empress dowager's feelings for her were naturally extraordinary, but Gao Xiuyi did not expect it to be so caring for Xie Yunqing.

Although Luo Huixin thought it was strange, she was not at all defensive in front of the queen mother, let alone a little doubt about the purpose of the queen mother. She immediately said: "Aunt Gu said that A Qing's illness is not a bit windy, and we only said a few words to her through the curtain. However, she is not very ill, and she will recover within a few days at most."

"That's it..." the queen mother said in deep thought, and then looked to Xiao Tan, "it's hard for your two sisters to come into the palace, you can talk to them together."

Xiao Tan handed the Xue Tuan to the palace maid, and went out with Gao Xiuyi and Luo Huixin.

Only Mother Xin was left in the palace to accompany the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother frowned and did not speak for a long time.

"Manny, since there is nothing serious about Xie Xie, you shouldn't worry about it." Xin persuaded Mother.

"Something's wrong," the queen mother shook her head, "The girl Huixin said that Xie girl can't see the wind, how could Gu family send her out of the capital at this juncture? Besides, Gu family only got such a daughter in middle age, so precious. It doesn’t make sense to ask her daughter to leave Beijing to recover by herself during the New Year. She doesn’t care if she stays in the capital."

"Then, as the Queen Mother saw, what happened to Xie's family?" Madam Xin didn't finish her words, she was fooled by herself first, "Could it be that Miss Xie contracted something that can infect people, right?"

"Have you ever seen a child or girl sick, will mothers stay away?"

This is not true. Mother Xin remembered that when the emperor was young, the emperor had chickenpox. At that time, everyone was afraid to avoid it. Only the empress dowager was waiting by the emperor's side. Half a month later, the emperor's body was better, but the queen mother lost a circle.

It's just that Mother Xin couldn't think of what happened to Xie Yunqing.

The queen mother was also confused, feeling that she couldn't grasp the point.

"Niang, Madam Gu loves her daughter like that, she will naturally plan for Miss Xie, are you afraid that something will happen to Miss Xie?" Madam Xin persuaded.

The queen mother had to relax a little, but thinking that Xiao Xuan was still missing, the huge boulder in her heart was still hanging.

Mother Xin squeezed her shoulders for the Queen Mother. Seeing that the Queen Mother was always depressed, she knew in her heart that she was also concerned about the little prince, so she said in a very relaxed tone: "Don’t worry about so many things, little prince. That kind of bravery is extraordinary, you care about it, and the royal family's Hongfu protects it, and I am afraid that something will not happen?"

"The Ai's family is old. The first emperor died and Yu'er died unexpectedly. The Ai's family has been supported by hard work. If A Xuan has something to do, how can the Ai's family be good." The queen mother sighed in pity.

The queen mother has many descendants, but the only one she really likes is the brother and sister Xiao Xuan.

No matter when, the queen mother can't stand another blow.

"The Ai's family has lived for most of their lives, and they have seen everything. There is only such a poor pair of children. The Ai's wants to see them get married and have their own children before they leave." But, now it seems, Based on her physical condition, it seemed that she couldn't make it through that day. The queen mother's eyes dimmed. In the past two years, she still looks vigorous on the surface, but privately, she knows that her body is getting worse every day. The queen mother was afraid that Xiao Xuan brothers and sisters were worried, so she ordered the imperial physician to guard the secret.

She can't deceive herself if others don't say it.

She was afraid that she would not be able to survive the day when the two of them were married.

The queen mother counted the Buddha beads over and over again. She had always believed in Buddhism, but the emperor regarded Taoism as the supreme god. Speaking of which, she and the emperor are the strangest mother and son in the world.

Gao Luo followed Xiao Tan and went to Xiao Tan's study together.

There was a cold wind outside, but the inside of the house was warm like spring.

When Luo Huixin saw that the head of the book was about to explode, she looked at Xiao Tan and Gao Xiuyi and said, "Why are two of the sisters I have made with talented women? They won't give me a way to survive."

Luo Huixin couldn't be more familiar with the talents of Xie Yunqing and Gao Xiuyi. Frankly speaking, Xiao Tan is the princess's most beloved granddaughter and the orphan of the king of Yu, who was brought up by the queen mother herself. The piano, chess, calligraphy and painting were also taught by Hongru. Although Xiao Tan didn't have the talents to show off, none of Qin, Chess, Calligraphy, and Calligraphy would lag behind others. Luo Huixin didn't mention too much aggrieved, and then glanced at Gao Xiuyi who was sitting on the side. Gao Xiuyi, who was only known to be arguing with her in the past, has become much quieter and calmer now, which really makes her uncomfortable.

Gao Xiuyi was reading and writing the short poem written by Xie Yunqing, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "A Qing is really great, and you see, she is good at multiple fonts, but every time she writes in a font, she won't let it go. People see the shadows of other fonts."

"A Qing can write in multiple fonts?" Xiao Tan cast a puzzled look.

Luo Huixin seems to be talking about one of the most common things: "She learned from Gu Shoufu when she was a child. What is incredible about how to write in several fonts? But Aqing is even more shocking. It should be her. You can write with one hand and draw with the other." Luo Hui said triumphantly, as if the person she praised was herself.

Xiao Tan was stunned to hear, and then said for a while, "Why have I never heard of these?"

"Aqing doesn't like to show off, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't. When the pesky Yu State envoy came, Aqing gave a sword dance and surprised four people. This was something that everyone hadn't expected. "Luo Huixin said.

Even though Xiao Tan was not there on the night of the palace banquet, he never saw how the three of Xie Yunqing performed tacit understanding and won the praises of the whole house. I have never seen how Xie Yunqing lost the face of the ten princesses of Yu. However, afterwards, Xiao Tan still learned of the situation at the palace banquet from the mouth of the palace people.

She was really curious at that time how much talent Xie Yunqing had.

In fact, as early as the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Xiao Tan had already developed a lot of favor and curiosity when he saw the well-mannered and generous Lanxin.

Sure enough, she did not disappoint, Xie Yunqing, this person, looked much more energetic than all the women in Beijing.

Also, Xie Yunqing's calmness and delicacy is probably something she will never learn.

Later, seeing his brother caring more and more about Xie Yunqing, Xiao Tan not only didn't have any taste in his heart, but also looked forward to his brother Xie Yunqing's marriage. In this way, the relationship between her and Xie Yunqing is even closer.

Her brother's life for more than ten years has been walking on thin ice every day, and she has seen it all in her eyes. Only by staying with Xie Yunqing can Xiao Tan feel that his brother is in a state of extreme relaxation. This state has never been seen in my elder brother. "

When Xiao Tan felt sorry for his brother, he was also trying to sell his brother out.

In front of Xiao Tan, Luo Huixin was not restrained and cautious in front of the queen, and said to Xiao Tan: "Unfortunately, I don't know when Ah Qing will come back. This year, she won't be back if I think about it."

On New Year's Eve, all the ministers of the court, the wives of the third rank and above, and their daughters, all have to enter the palace to watch the night. Although in the palace, every move is controlled by others, and the actions are inconvenient, but this is a custom that has been inherited to this day, and no one dares to question it.

In previous years, Xie Yunqing would also follow his mother and sister-in-law into the palace. Today, Xie Yunqing is not in Beijing.

She was on that cold Zhuangzi, and she didn't know if she would miss her family, would she want to come back and watch the night with the family, waiting to leave the old and welcome the new.

Luo Huixin's words made the girls feel depressed.

Gao Xiuyi couldn't help but have doubts in her heart.

Which of the girls in the aristocratic circle in the capital didn’t grow up together? Although Xie Yunqing was thin, his physical condition was fine. How come you suddenly become bedridden.

What is the reason why Xie Yunqing faded out of people's sight

Although Xiao Tan and Xie Yunqing had not been in contact for a long time, she was used to being lonely since she was a child. Strictly speaking, Xie Yunqing was her first friend, and she could not value Xie Yunqing any more. Now Xie Yunqing has disappeared, so why not tell her to worry? "Should I beg the emperor's grandmother to send someone to Zhuangzi to see A Qing?" Xiao Tan asked tentatively.

"Stop it." Gao Xiuyi immediately said: "I and Huixin also visited A Qing, but A Qing didn't see the wind. We only said a few words to her through the curtain. Although A Qing's voice was a little weak, But it doesn't sound like a big problem. From here to Zhuangzi, it takes several days to go back and forth. If you let Aqing know, you may be upset about it." Gao Xiuyi analyzed in an orderly manner.

Xiao Tan listened to it, and thought that the truth was the same, so he had to give it up. I also felt that Gao Xiuyi was only two years older than herself, and her thoughts were so delicate, and she considered things so thorough and meticulous, and she felt ashamed.

Luo Huixin thought of the sidelines. In fact, they had never seen Xie Yunqing or heard Xie Yunqing's voice, so they really had no idea about Xie Yunqing's condition.

Xie Yunqing, who was worried by everyone, finally saw the person he wanted to meet at this time.

The person in front of him was wearing a black suit and a mask with green fangs on his face. If you were timid, you would scream out of fright if you met this person.

Xie Yunqing looked at him calmly, as if he wanted to see something from this terrifying mask.

"Aren't you afraid of me?" the man finally said, his voice dark and hoarse, very ugly.
