Because of my brother's incident, I am even more eager to look forward to Xuanqing's return. Devouring Novels www. Huanbi was crying when we faced each other, and was extremely anxious, thinking about how to quietly take my brother back to Kyoto for medical treatment.
However, the days are like years, and I have been looking forward to it hard. One month has passed, but Xuanqing still has no return date. Not only does he have no return date, but there is no news at all. The Qinghe Palace does not know when he will return, and Qingliangtai does not know when he will return.
, even Concubine Shu Gui didn't know, it was like a kite with its string cut off, and the news was completely lost.
Ten days have passed, fifteen days have passed.
I was very anxious, so Princess Shu Gui comforted me and said: "The road to southern Yunnan is far away, thousands of miles apart, and it is very important to understand the sentiments of the people in the most detailed way. I am afraid that time will be wasted on the road."
I was worried about my brother's condition, and he was alone in Lingnan. I couldn't help but feel anxious and boiling in my heart, as if I had swallowed a big mouthful of yellow lotus juice in my mouth, which made my heart, lungs and five internal organs feel bitter. I leaned on the knees of Princess Shu Gui,
The concubine caressed my neck and comforted me softly: "Huan'er, don't worry. When Qing'er comes back, I will take you away from here, and then take your brother to Beijing for good treatment. Although confusion is a difficult disease,
But it’s not impossible to cure. There are many experts in Xinglin in Beijing, and it can be cured in two or three years at most. Don’t worry too much.” The concubine’s tone was soft and caring, and she whispered: “Wait a minute.
It will be fine once Qing'er comes back, everything will be fine."
There is the cold yet sweet and bitter smell of sandalwood on the concubine's robe, and the soft texture is close to my cheek. It is already February. The weather is gradually getting warmer, everything is recovering, and the new grass is revealing its buds, which are light yellow and light green.
Star by star, mixed with February blue blooming like stars everywhere, small blue flowers, the warm breath of spring is so close.
How can I not be worried? If Xuanqing never comes back... My face turned slightly red, and the suffocating nausea in my chest and abdomen came again. I couldn't resist the feeling in my stomach, and finally couldn't help but turn my head and ran out.
.
Although the retching passed, the dizziness in my head did not lessen. Concubine Shu Gui rushed out and patted me on the back, asking anxiously: "What's wrong? Did you eat something bad?"
I glanced at the concubine, then lowered my head immediately, a coral-colored blush filled her jade-colored cheeks. Concubine Shu Gui thought for a moment, and said in surprise: "Could it be that you...when did this happen?"
I lowered my head shyly, and unconsciously twirled the hair on my sleeves with my fingers, saying in a whisper like a mosquito, "It had been more than a month since he left."
The concubine was overjoyed, "Okay, okay! I'm going to be a grandmother before my eyes." The concubine held my hand and said, "Huan'er, I've been looking forward to this for so many years!" The concubine's eyes were slightly moist, "Okay.
My child, I just wronged you, and I have to follow Qing'er namelessly and without distinction."
I lowered my head slightly and rested my chin on the pink-blue skirt. There was a magnolia pattern sparsely embroidered on the skirt. The fine stitches brought a touch of comfort. I said softly: "What matters to me is not status."
.”
There was a soft and bright luster in the corner of the concubine's eyes, and she said with emotion: "Good boy, your temperament is the most like mine. In this world, after all, love is more important than fame and wealth."
I murmured in a low voice, "I hope to find the person of my heart and we will never be apart until we grow old together."
The concubine pulled me to sit down together, and asked Jiu Yun to put a goose feather cushion under her, and said sincerely: "Huan'er, I don't know what Qing'er promised you. But I, my son, know best.
If he likes someone wholeheartedly, he will treat her wholeheartedly. Even if you have no status, he will not marry you again. Facing the outside world, let him be a lonely King of Qinghe. As long as you can stay together for a long time.
Come on, don't be so secretive. It doesn't matter whether you live in the palace or the balcony. In life, appearance is always the most important thing."
Such a future may be something we can look forward to. The first child was not born, so I couldn’t raise it with my own hands. But now the child in my belly, Qing and I’s child, I can personally accompany him to grow up.
Now, feel the true joy and happiness of a mother.
My heart was filled with tenderness, and I said softly, "The concubine can see how Qing treats me and I treat Qing. If I don't let him down, he won't let me down either." I said shyly, "If Qing comes back,
Princess, don’t tell him yet.”
The concubine's bright smile was like a spring breeze blowing on her face, and she said: "Of course, you and your wife can make up your own mind. I'm just waiting to hold my grandson."
I stretched out my hand to caress my still-unshowy belly, and my heart surged with sweet hope. I just wanted to wait for the Qing Dynasty to come back.
Time flowed by slowly while waiting, and Huanbi's eyes stared at me with occasional stagnation, as if a stream of mist was pulled by the sky, staring at my lower abdomen.
I didn't understand the knot in her heart. I waved her over, held her hand and put it on my lower abdomen, saying in a gentle voice: "Listen, there are your little nephews Huanbi, Yuyao and Yurao.
If both of us are gone, we will probably be the only sisters to depend on each other for the rest of our lives. My child is also your child. How about we raise him together from now on?" My tone was sincere and sincere, with the pity and love of an eldest sister for her younger sister.
Tears shone in Huanbi's eyes, like a pear blossom bearing rain, and she asked with suspicion and joy: "Is it true?" Her hand on my lower abdomen trembled slightly, but she was endlessly happy, "The child of the eldest sister and the prince is also mine.
's children."
"Yes". I solemnly promised, "Huanbi. Some things are a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed. Any changes will only hurt others and yourself. But I will give you whatever I can give you."
Huanbi lowered her head and showed a slight pity, as if clear dew contained sadness, "I know. You can't force things that you don't have in your life."
I held her shoulders and sighed lowly and reassuringly.
The mountain breeze took away the cold air and warmed the greenery. However, amid such eager waiting, what was waiting was Wen Shichu's figure.
On the day he came, the flowers in the courtyard were beginning to bloom, and the old peach tree in the courtyard had its first peach blossom. Jinxi was complaining: "The weather is really weird. It's still February, and the weather in the mountains is extremely cold."
, it turned out to be so peach blossoms.”
The peach blossom bloomed alone on the branch, pretty and quivering, standing on the branch facing the wind. The color of the petals was red and thin, and it looked a bit eerie and gorgeous from a distance.
Wen Shichu brought a few pairs of anti-fetal and tranquilizing medicines and said: "This medicine is newly prescribed by me for you. You can take it first." He looked at the dark green under my eyes and couldn't help but feel distressed:
"You haven't slept well these past two days, have you? Didn't I tell you to take anti-fetal pills regularly?"
Huanbi said with a hint of worry: "The prince said he would come back in a month, but now it has been fifty days since he left, and there is still no news of his return. The young lady is inevitably anxious. She had a nightmare again last night, but it's not another one.
Didn’t sleep well.”
I brushed my fingers over the soft and thick snow-white window paper, smiled lightly like pear blossoms in the wind, and said: "The nightmare is not real, Huanbi, he will definitely be back soon."
Wen Shichu had been sitting in silence since he entered the door. When he heard this sentence, his eyelids suddenly twitched, he suddenly raised his head and suddenly said: "He will not come back."
I didn't hear clearly for a moment, so I turned around and said with a smile, "What did you say?"
Wen Shichu's face continued to turn gray. He closed his eyes hard and suddenly said firmly: "King Qinghe is dead, and he will never come back again."
His words penetrated my ears coldly, word by word, like countless gray bugs flapping their wings chaotically, buzzing and noisy in my ears, making me dizzy. My face must have lost its color.
, my whole body was cold, I turned around blankly, and shouted: "What are you talking about?" My voice was shrill and broken, I couldn't believe it at all, I asked: "How can you curse him like this? Curse the father of my child!"
Wen Shichu pressed my hand and said anxiously: "When have I ever lied to you when you are so old? Huan'er, I have never dared to tell you. King Qinghe went to southern Yunnan and has not returned yet, and there is no news from the palace.
The emperor sent people out of the palace to search, and the news they got was that the boat King Qinghe was riding capsized in the Tengsha River, and not even his body could be recovered."
I listened to him in a daze, very quietly. I felt as if my body was being sharpened with a dull knife, until my flesh and blood were blurred. I could only watch the blood flowing around it, and it was so painful that I felt numb.
My lips were wet, and the sweet and fishy juice spread in my mouth and between my teeth, and the blood in my chest was so surging that I couldn't suppress it. Wen Shichu started talking, but I just remained silent, as if I hadn't heard him.
Qing is dead! He died like this! He left me so suddenly, without saying a word, and he died.
Wen Shichu still said with tears in his eyes: "The water in the Tengsha River is so strong that even the iron boat was broken into pieces. Even if the body is found,..."
There was a "gurgling" sound in my heart, as if something had cracked violently, and some kind of pure hope in my heart had been crushed to pieces by someone, trampled into powder, scattered all over the sky and the ground, and could never be restored.
At this time, Huanbi was coming in with the boiled anti-fetal medicine. After hearing Wen Shichu's words, the medicine bowl crashed to the ground and shattered into pieces. The thick black medicine was poured onto Huanbi's sky-green skirt.
It was a mess. Huanbi stayed there in a daze, not caring about the hot liquid and not wiping it off. After staying for a moment, she fell to the ground and screamed. Her voice sounded shrill and sharp, one after another,
It was like the sound of a fine piece of clothing being torn apart by someone, which was heartbreaking.
My tears fell down drop by drop, winding silently on my cheeks. I just kept thinking, he is dead and I will never see him for the last time!
Wen Shichu shook my body desperately, "Huan'er! Wake up, wake up! There is no resurrection after death!"
A dead person cannot be resurrected? His soul has never come to my dream! Thinking this way, I feel more and more sad in my chest. My internal organs seem to be torn and twisted by countless sharp claws. The smell of blood spreads between my lips and teeth.
I couldn't help but vomit a fishy-sweet smell in my throat. When the scarlet viscous liquid poured out of my mouth, it felt like my whole heart and lungs were being vomited out in pain.
The strong and painful despair made my body fall involuntarily like the last fallen leaf blown off the branches in the cold winter.
