The north wind howls like a ghost, making people tremble with fear.
Mrs. Zhao also came back. Zeng Nian wanted to go over to say hello to her mother-in-law, but was stopped by Chen Siwen.
"It's too cold and dark. I'll just go there alone. My mother won't be unhappy because of these little things." Chen Siwen didn't let Zeng Nian go out again. "You should wash up first. After they drink the soup, the bed will be warm." Then go in again."
Zeng Nian has been paralyzed for several years, and her feet are particularly afraid of cold in winter.
Chen Siwen massaged her every night to activate her blood circulation, but due to solar terms, Zeng Nian always felt that the soles of her feet were particularly cold these days.
"Why are you here? I was just about to send someone to tell you and A-Nian." Ms. Zhao had already taken off her hairpin and put on her homely clothes, "Don't come over so late. What's the use of telling lies?" , the white frost will kill you."
"A-Nian is worried and insists on coming here by himself, so I said it would be better for me to come over." Chen Sixen said with a smile, "Did your mother catch a cold?"
"I'm wearing thick clothes!" Mrs. Zhao also smiled, "Mrs. Yining can calculate. She asked you and A-Nian's Nian Geng and said that the child you have will definitely be a son."
Mrs. Zhao's current thoughts are all about having her grandson. As long as it is beneficial to her grandson, she will happily accept it.
"It doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl." Chen Siwen is not obsessed with having a boy. "It's just that when the time comes, I will have to trouble my mother to help teach me."
"The child hasn't even been born yet, so I'm thinking about how to teach him. If he wants to be sensible, he has to be after the age of three," Mrs. Zhao looked at her son angrily and said, "I don't want to think about how to care for the child well, so let's talk about how to teach him first."
"My son is too impatient." Chen Siwen said, "Naturally, we should educate him first and then teach him."
"Okay, okay, I'm tired too. You should go back and have a rest." As a mother, Ms. Zhao couldn't help but love her son. "Hold your son tightly, don't let the wind blow him."
After Chen Siwen went out, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
To be honest, she was still a little worried a few days ago.
First, she was afraid that when he entered the palace and met Cen Yunchu, it would bring back old memories. Later, when Chen Siwen fainted and was carried back from the palace, she was also very frightened.
Fortunately, there has been nothing unusual about Chen Siwen these days. On the contrary, he and Zeng Nian have become closer and more harmonious.
Furthermore, the old concubine's condition has stabilized and there is no need for Chen Siwen to enter the palace again.
Chen Siwen took a rest after returning home.
At midnight, the guard guard hurried to the inner courtyard to ask Master Qi to get up: "The eunuch who serves as messenger in the palace is here. Please go into the palace right now. He said that the old concubine is suddenly unwell again."
Zeng Nian was sleeping soundly when he was startled.
Chen Siwen quickly comforted her and said: "Don't be afraid, you sleep in your bed, I will go to the palace."
"Why is it so sudden? Is the old concubine seriously ill?" How could Zeng Nian think about sleeping?
"I guess something is not right. I went to the palace to have a look, and I'll be back at dawn at the latest." Chen Siwen tucked Zeng Nian into a quilt and said, "When does the patient get sick? You don't have to worry, just be careful and cautious." I feel sleepy."
"Then you must wear more clothes. It's too cold at night. Don't ride a horse and let them prepare a car!" Zeng Nian really felt sorry for her husband.
"Okay, I'll ask them to prepare the car." Chen Siwen touched Zeng Nian's head, "Sleep well and wait until I come back to have breakfast with you."
Chen Siwen followed the eunuch into the palace. The old concubine's condition was indeed somewhat relapsing, but it was not serious.
After Chen Siwen's diagnosis and treatment, the old concubine fell asleep peacefully.
"I think the old lady's food has been a bit greasy these days, so she should keep it light." Chen Siwen blessed the people serving around him, "Old people have a weak spleen and stomach, not to mention that the old lady is already sick."
"Mr. Chen, although things have stabilized now, you'd better stay a little longer. Wait until daybreak and confirm that the old concubine is out of business, then you can go out of the palace." The eunuch in charge said, "Otherwise, it will be so dark in the middle of the night.
, if something happens again, we have to go back and ask you to come again. This back and forth is not only troublesome, but also delays things."
"In this case, it's okay to stay a little longer. It's just that you have to report it to the superiors before it's in line with the rules." Chen Siwen knew the rules in the palace.
The eunuch in charge said hurriedly: "Master, please don't worry, I will take care of everything."
After saying that, he went out and came back after a long time. He raised his hands to Chen Sixen and said with a smile, "I have already reported it. Please don't worry, sir."
He added: "Young Master, please follow the younger one to the side hall to rest. The concubine has already gone to bed, so we don't want to disturb her. It's just that the side hall is a little deserted, which makes me feel wronged."
The late emperor's concubines lived in relatively remote places, and the main hall was already deserted, let alone the side halls.
But Chen Sixen never sticks to trivial matters, not to mention that he came to treat the concubine. According to the rules, it is best not to leave this courtyard.
There was a light on in a room in the side hall, so eunuchs and maids tidied up the room.
A carbon basin was placed and bedding was laid out.
"Mr. Chen, I really feel a little wronged to you. This house has not been occupied for a long time, so it is really deserted," said the eunuch in charge.
"This is already very good. Father-in-law, let's go and have a rest." Chen Siqin said with a smile.
He is a grown man and has nothing to be squeamish about.
Everyone else left, leaving Chen Siwen alone in the room.
He blew out the lamp and lay down on the bed undressed.
At first I was a little bit tossing and turning, and gradually I started to feel sleepy.
In the second half of the night, the sound of the wind gradually stopped, and the whole dormitory was completely silent.
In the darkness, several shadows darker than the darkness quietly approached the room where Chen Siwen was resting.
It’s just that people in sleep are unaware of it...
Cen Yunchu's palace suddenly became brightly lit, and the maids and eunuchs all looked surprised, wondering what was going on.
The commander of the guards ordered people to surround the entire palace and not allow anyone to let go.
"What's going on?" Fulan quickly put on her clothes and walked out. She asked Linxi to stay with Cen Yunchu.
"Miss Fulan, someone just saw someone sneaking here and suspected it was an assassin." The guard commander had a straight face. Fulan had never seen him smile since she met him.
"Assassin?!" Fulan was startled when he heard this, "We didn't hear anything?"
"Miss Fulan, for the sake of Cen Zhaoyi's safety, it's better to let my men search her. It's best if nothing happens." said the guard commander.
Fulan was a little hesitant: "A large group of people broke in in the middle of the night, what if I disturbed the queen?
Why don't we search inside first, while you surround us outside. If there is an assassin, he won't be able to escape."
But Fulan was still a little hesitant, he always felt that this matter was a bit strange.
She searched for Bai Fu in the crowd, thinking that it would be safer if he came forward to make the decision.
