After returning from the Xiongnu, Xiao Xuan did not relax. He left the palace every day before dawn and did not return until the evening. Due to Xie Yunqing's sleepiness after being pregnant, when Xiao Xuan left, Xie Yunqing had not yet woken up, Xiao Xuan had returned, and Xie Yunqing had already fallen asleep again.
However, with Xiao Xuan by his side, Xie Yunqing's appetite improved suddenly, his mood was relieved, and his complexion improved a lot.
Unknowingly it's already summer, Xie Yunqing is sitting in a cool room and eating grapes. Her taste has changed drastically these days. She didn't like to eat sour before. Now she eats a lot of grapes and apricots every day. Xiao Xuan walked in with a solemn expression.
Xie Yunqing asked Qingluo and others to retreat and asked, "But what happened in the palace?"
"I got news that that person is not very well."
That person, of course, is the son of today. As for the poor health, I am afraid it is very bad.
The emperor takes the medicine for a long time, and the erysipelas accumulates in the body, and it is impossible to harm the body.
If the news of the child's illness did not come out today, it could only be due to two reasons.
The emperor refused to let people around him spread it, or the emperor was already unconscious, Xiao Yu blocked the news.
"Is it Xiao Yu?"
Xiao Xuan nodded.
Although Xiao Yu had been established as the prince, and the emperor had delegated all the government affairs to him, Xiao Yu did not get the edict and Yuxi.
He naturally can't get the jade seal, because the jade seal is not in the hands of the emperor.
The preferred heir of the Emperor Xianyu was Prince Xiao Huaiyou of Xianyu, and even the edict of the position was drawn up with a seal. The emperor has been secretly searching for Yuxi for seventeen years to no avail.
"If the people of the world know that the jade seal used by the emperor is fake, I don't know what kind of sensation it will cause." Xie Yunqing sighed.
Naturally, this news cannot be circulated. It is not only related to the majesty of the royal family, but also closely related to the face of Da Zhou.
"I can't stay by your side these few days, Qing, you'd better not go out. If you must go out, there must be someone by your side." Xiao Xuan's tone was extremely cautious.
"Don't worry, do you think I can go out like this?" Xie Yunqing said: "You have been dormant for so many years, and now it's time to display your ambitions. Xiao Xuan, you are an eagle that should spread your wings, I don't Will become the cage that binds you."
"You know, I was willing to be imprisoned by you?" Xiao Xuan put his arms around him and reached out to touch her bulging abdomen. In the past few days, she began to have fetal movements. When Xiao Xuan felt the fetal movements for the first time, he was almost happy. Xie Yunqing held it up.
This is their child, the little life they both look forward to together.
Xiao Xuan became more and more busy, not seeing anyone all day, and Xie Yunqing also took care of raising her baby in the mansion. The weather was hot, and she seldom stepped out of the room door.
Suwen and Moyan alternated, and followed her every step of the way. Xie Yunqing knew that Xiao Xuan had also sent many secret guards to protect her.
Luo Huixin came to see her this day, "You haven't been out for a long time. Isn't it boring to stay in the house all day?" If she keeps not going out, she must be boring to moldy.
Xie Yunqingzheng and Moyan were sitting together and chatting together. Her female celebrity is not good enough, so she can only chat. Moyan is not good at Nvhong. Shi Yao's birthday is approaching. After thinking about it, she decided to make a sword spike and give it to Shi Yao.
Luo Huixin looked at the craftsmanship of the two and was silent for a while and said, "How about I teach you?"
Xie Yunqing, who had had a headache for a long time, nodded quickly, and several people were talking while chatting, and the time passed quickly.
After sitting for a while, Xie Yunqing said he was dizzy. He drank a bowl of sour plum soup and rested on the pillow.
"Xiuyi didn't have any reaction to pregnancy. It's just that the person is a lot swollen. Why do you react so badly during pregnancy?" Luo Huixin finished speaking. Before Xie Yunqing's response, she turned to look at her. After a while, she was actually asleep.
Moyan was used to this, and took a blanket to cover Xie Yunqing's body lightly.
When Xie Yun woke up, it was already an hour later.
"Huixin," she just woke up, her voice was a little hoarse, "come here, I have something to tell you."
Luo Huixin walked over, and Xie Yunqing shook her hand, "The capital is a bit uneasy these few days. You stay in the Grand Princess Mansion and don't go anywhere."
Luo Hui was shocked. The news of the emperor's serious illness did not come out. Everything in the capital was as usual. She didn't understand why Xie Yunqing said that.
"It's going to change." Xie Yunqing looked out the window with a sad expression between his eyes.
When Luo Huixin returned to the Grand Princess's mansion, she had been pondering the meaning of Xie Yunqing's words.
Seeing that she had something on her mind, the princess asked her what happened. Luo Huixin hesitated and told her what Xie Yunqing had told her. The eldest princess was silent for a long time before she said: "Although I haven't been out for a long time, I don't know the wind direction at all. I heard that the prince is mobilizing the Imperial Guard and Jinwuwei recently, and I want to come to the throne."
"Grandma?" Luo Hui was horrified, looking at the princess, speechless.
"You don't need to be afraid, the change of dynasty is inevitable, but this fire will not burn us anyway."
"So, will it be burned to the Yuwang Mansion?"
The princess did not speak for a long time, and finally sighed, "You know, the emperor originally planned to make King Yu's father the prince?"
"How come?" Luo Huixin exclaimed.
When she was born, the world was already settled, and naturally she didn't know anything about the bloody storm that year.
The change of imperial power has always been accompanied by killing and bleeding.
Prince Xianyu died for his country, and his sons were either ransacked or exiled by the whole family.
The eldest princess was born in the royal family and knew these rules well, but it didn't mean she was willing to accept them. In particular, Luo Huixin is negotiating for marriage. Once there is a movement in the capital, Luo Huixin's marriage will have to be delayed again.
Luo Hui thought for a while, and asked, "So, is King Yu interested in the throne?"
"There is no one in the royal family who is ambitious about that position," said the princess.
Luo Huixin couldn't imagine that Xiao Xuan would have the ambition to fight for power.
The princess sighed. Originally, she didn't want to tell Luo Huixin the grievances of the royal family. Knowing these things Luo Huixin would only cause trouble. But this child is almost ready, and he is still innocent. The eldest princess is really worried, without her own protection, will she suffer because of her innocence.
She told Luo Huixin about how the Queen Mother assisted the first emperor to quell the chaos of the Five Kings, and how the emperor would eradicate dissidents and ascend to the throne. "There are not many people who remember these things now. People who know the inside do not want to say it or dare not say it. Huixin, I tell you, just to tell you that our Dazhou seems to be prosperous, but in the bright skin Down, there is too much decay buried."
Luo Huixin's face turned pale. She had never thought that so many things would have happened. These things are so far away and so close to her. Said far away, she had never experienced these things in her life. When she was close, she was in the royal family. Her most beloved grandmother and best friend were all people in the center of imperial power.
"Hui Xin, your grandma’s home sent a letter a few days ago. It will be your grandmother’s birthday in half a year. You haven’t seen your grandmother’s family for so many years. Pack your bags and go to your grandma’s home in the past few days Stay for two days."
Luo Hui looked up in amazement, and the princess waved her hand before she could speak: "I have made up my mind. I will fix the book tomorrow, and you will hand it to your grandmother."
Luo Huixin bowed her head and said nothing, and after a while, she nodded and agreed. Her maternal ancestor's home was in Longxi, and it took more than three months to travel from the capital to the mountains and rivers in Longxi. Since my grandmother had the heart to send her away, the situation she was about to face was very precarious.
"Don't worry, I am just a princess about to enter the soil. I am not a threat to anyone. No matter how fierce they fight, they will not involve me. In fact, if you stay in the capital, nothing will happen. It’s just that I don’t want you to see such a cruel and unbearable scene.” The princess patted her hand, “Hui Xin, grandmother promises you, when you come back, grandmother will still be alive and well, grandmother is still waiting to watch You are married."
Three days later, Luo Huixin quietly left Beijing and only wrote a letter to inform Xie Yunqing and Gao Xiuyi before leaving.
Gao Xiuyi was about to give birth. She read the letter, "Why did she leave so hastily?" Gao Xiuyi was puzzled. With Luo Huixin's temperament, even if she left Beijing, she should say goodbye to her face to face.
Mrs. Gao is making small clothes for her born child. Since the Gao family lost power, Gao Shiwei's temper has become more and more bad, and the husband and wife have never quarreled a day. Mrs. Gao would come over to accompany her daughter from time to time. Fortunately, her daughter was very open and persuaded her from time to time, Gao Fu was a little relieved.
"She should have gone to celebrate her grandmother's birthday, but leaving in such a hurry does not make sense." The princess's mansion had already released news that the Longxi Cui family missed her granddaughter and wanted to pick her granddaughter to stay.
"If it wasn't for my weight, I really want to go to the Prince Yu's Mansion to ask A Qing." Gao Xiuyi said. She and Xie Yunqing hadn't seen each other for a long time. Xie Yunqing got married and she only entrusted Luo Huixin to send a gift.
"Princess Yu is still pregnant, and may not have the energy to talk to you. When you give birth, are you afraid that you won't have a chance to walk around?" Madam Gao comforted her.
Xie Yunqing woke up from a nap and received a letter from Luo Huixin.
"It will take a long time for the county lord to come back after leaving like this. The princess is even more boring alone." Moyan said while dyeing her nails. She couldn't go out of the house recently, she was so bored, she just dressed herself wholeheartedly every day. She faced the light and looked at her nails. These hands had once held a sword and killed people. Looking at Baixian, but looking closely, he could find countless scars on his hands.
The peaceful days passed for too long, and she began to miss the days of licking blood on the blade.
"Don't worry, it won't be boring in the future." Xie Yunqing stroked her lower abdomen and smiled softly: "We will have things to leave."
