Eight hundred and twentieth chapters give up and not give up
Wei Jingxuan stroked the skirt of her skirt and said in a cold voice: "Although Concubine Yu is cunning, she did not lie to me this time. As long as you act more carefully, the probability of success is at least 70% to 80%. Anyway, just follow my words."
That’s it.”
In the following days, the palace was very quiet, like an animal hibernating, without any movement. However, on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the first snow of the new year fell, covering the entire Forbidden City.
On the early morning of the ninth day of the lunar month, Xianyue held Aluo's hand and came to Yihuaju. After entering, she took off her cloak with a smile and said: "It has been snowing all day and night, and the snow hasn't stopped yet. I don't know how long it will continue to snow."
.”
"It is said that auspicious snow heralds a good year. The heavier the snow, the better the harvest will be." After saying this, Xia Qing added: "In fact, with such heavy snow, the empress should rest in the Yanxi Palace."
After Xianyue sat down, she said with a faint smile: "Xia Guiren said this, but you don't want to see me?"
Xia Qing lowered her eyes and said, "How dare I, my concubine? It's just that it's difficult to walk in the snow. I'm afraid that the palace attendants who are carrying the carriage will accidentally throw the empress down."
Xianyue smiled, took the tea from Su Qiu, took a sip and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Xia cares about me so much. I am really touched."
Xia Qing said respectfully and calmly: "I wonder if your Majesty came here in the snow, what are your orders?"
Xianyue put down the tea cup and said: "I just have nothing to do, so I came to Xia Guiren's place for a walk, isn't it okay?"
Xia Qing lowered her head and said: "Of course you can, but if the empress comes to persuade me, it would be useless to bother me."
A Luo couldn't help but said: "Mr.
Xia Qing said with a cold expression: "Thank you Aunt Aluo, but you can rest assured that that time won't happen."
A Luo said eagerly: "Sister... no, Xia Guiren, you believe me, you will regret it if you do this!" She wanted to call her "sister", but thinking that Xia Qing did not recognize her, she had to change her words.
Xia Qing gave her a cold look and said, "I said, there won't be that moment when I don't bother my aunt anymore."
"Listen to me..." Before A Luo could continue, Xia Qing had already said to Xianyue: "Mother, I have already said what I just said. If you don't want to mention this, please go back."
Xianyue said with a smile: "In that case, just don't mention it. By the way, has the dragon fetus been fine these past few days?"
Seeing what Xianyue said, Xia Qing's face softened slightly and said, "To tell you the truth, everything is fine with my concubine and my child."
Xianyue nodded slightly and said: "A child of more than four months old should be able to move, right? I remember that when I was pregnant with Changle, when I was more than three months old, I felt her reaching out and moving her feet inside, that is, in that
At that time, I really felt that I was going to be a mother-in-law; at that moment, I swore in my heart that no one would harm her. Unfortunately, I failed to protect her in the end and let her leave me early.
"When she said this, her eyes turned red and she couldn't hide the sadness in her heart.
Xia Qing was silent for a moment and said: "Wei Jingxuan and Concubine Yu have already harmed many people. They should not be allowed to continue harming them, otherwise the palace will be in chaos sooner or later. Your Majesty should know this very well. You are both emotional and rational.
You shouldn’t stop your concubine.”
Xianyue stared at her and said: "Xia Qing, if you tell me the truth, do you really have no regrets at all?"
Xia Qing was startled, and then he avoided her gaze uncomfortably, "As long as I can get rid of Wei Jingxuan, I have no regrets in letting go!"
"If you are not reluctant to give up, why do you avoid my eyes?" With that said, Xianyue put her hand on Xia Qing's swollen abdomen. It was a coincidence that the child in her belly moved, causing Xia Qing and Xiayue to
Feel a slight vibration.
Xianyue slowly said: "How many people ask for nothing, but you have to give it up with your own hands. Xia Qing, I hope you really won't regret it." After that, she took back her hand and left with A Luo who was hesitant to speak, leaving behind
Next, Xia Qing sat in a chair in a daze.
Seeing that Xia Qing was still silent, Su Qiu said tentatively: "Master, what the imperial concubine said is very reasonable. Why don't you just listen to her advice? Let's find another way. I believe that there is no perfect way for man. There will be a way.
It’s the time when the willows are dark and the flowers are bright.”
This time, Xia Qing did not rebuke her or answer her words. She just said: "I'm very tired. Help me go in and rest for a while."
When Su Qiu helped Xia Qing enter, A'luo anxiously said to Xianyue: "Master, why don't you try to persuade Xia Guiren more? She has obviously been persuaded by you, as long as..."
"Aluo!" Xianyue sighed softly and said: "I know you care about Xia Qing, and I have tried my best to wake her up, but whether she can stop herself from the cliff, the key always lies in herself, and neither you nor I can do it for her.
This decision.”
A Luo bit her lip hard and said in a low voice: "I know this, but I really don't want her to regret it for the rest of her life."
"I understand." Xianyue stroked A Luo's long hair and said, "Okay, let's go back."
A Luo nodded, and after helping Xianyue get on the shoulder carriage, she suddenly said: "Master, can I leave the palace for a few days?"
Xianyue frowned slightly and said, "How many days? Where are you going?"
Aluo said with a sad expression: "I want to pay homage to my mother's grave and tell her that I have found her so that she can rest in peace."
Xianyue immediately said: "It's true that I was negligent, that's true." After a pause, she said again: "Go back and ask Xia Qing about the specific burial place of her family, and then leave the palace tomorrow, I will
Tell Jingshifang that it will take more time to send you to do some things, so you don't have to worry."
"Thank you, Master." A Luo said gratefully, and then said: "Then noble Xia..."
How could Xianyue not understand her thoughts and said with a smile: "Okay, I will try my best to look after Mr. Xia, so you can go with peace of mind."
A'luo was about to thank him again when he suddenly saw a sneaky shadow hiding behind a tree out of the corner of his eye. He quickly stopped the eunuch who was about to carry the carriage and leave, leaned into Xianyue's ear and said, "Master, someone is here.
Watching us."
Xianyue's eyes flashed slightly and she said, "Do you know who it is?"
"It's too far away, I can't see clearly." Hearing A Luo's words, Xianyue calmly took off the red jade earring from her right ear and threw it on the snow. Then she exclaimed: "Hey, my earring
Why are you missing?"
A Luo echoed: "Hey, yes, I saw it just now. I think it fell near here."
Xianyue pretended to be angry and said: "In that case, why don't you hurry up and look for it? These are my favorite earrings. If you can't find them, I won't let you go."
Aluo agreed repeatedly, then lowered his head to search on the snow, intentionally or unintentionally approaching the place where the figure was. However, the man was very alert. Aluo only got half a foot closer when he noticed it and hid behind the tree again.
