Seeing her insistence, Xiao Yu couldn't say anything more, but a trace of doubt flashed in Xiao Feng's eyes.
The surface of the Tiannan River is very wide. In midsummer, there is no wind, and the water surface reflects the golden sunlight, making it a bright and shining area.
Even though the weather was so hot, it could not stop the people from watching the dragon boats. Countless people gathered by the river, crowded and talking excitedly, and the atmosphere was very lively.
The location of the stand where the emperor and others were sitting was quite special. Looking down from the stand, you could clearly see the scene along the river, giving you an impressive view of the mountains. However, the people below could not get a glimpse of the scene on the stand. It was very strange.
The privacy of the royal concubines was well protected.
With a shout, the dragon boat race finally started, with fierce drum beats. The boatmen, wearing short vests, stepped on the rhythm of the drums and slid their oars quickly. The shouts were louder than the waves.
The people stared closely at the dragon boats on the river, cheering loudly and sometimes dunking the rice dumplings in their hands into the river, attracting countless fish to grab them.
The emperor was personally watching, so this year's dragon boat race was particularly lively, and the prizes were particularly generous. The boatmen all worked hard to win the first prize.
The dragon boats competed fiercely on the river, which made the audience's blood boil with excitement. Even the emperor couldn't help but sit up straight and stare.
The final first place was won by a red dragon boat named "Dragon Going to the Sea", which won this year's jackpot. The boatmen were extremely excited and the audience applauded vigorously.
After watching the dragon boat race, the emperor took his wife and children home with him unsatisfied. When he walked down the stand, Su Zhaoyi tripped and fell to the ground, shocking everyone around him.
The maids quickly helped her up, but they saw that her face turned pale, she covered her stomach with her hands, and kept crying out in pain.
This incident immediately alarmed the emperor and the queen mother who were at the front of the queue. The emperor strode up to Su Zhaoyi, caressed her crumbling body from the hands of the palace maid, and was very worried: "Ruosu, what's going on? Where are you?"
uncomfortable?"
Su Zhaoyi glanced at Concubine Ying next to her subconsciously, as if she remembered something terrible, she trembled slightly, and immediately looked away, her voice was very weak: "Your Majesty, I accidentally fell down just now, and my stomach hurts so much.
…”
The emperor followed her gaze and glanced at Concubine Ying. When he saw Concubine Ying's expression twinkling, he immediately knew something in his heart. He then picked up Su Zhaoyi and said, "Go back to the palace and summon the imperial doctor!"
Seeing that the emperor actually picked up Su Zhaoyi in front of everyone, everyone's expressions moved slightly, especially the eyes of the three concubines who were accompanying them this time, with strong jealousy in their eyes.
The group hurried back to the palace and urgently called for an imperial doctor. After some diagnosis, it was discovered that Su Zhaoyi was pregnant!
The emperor was overjoyed and immediately issued an edict, canonizing Su Zhaoyi as his concubine. He also gave her many precious medicinal materials so that she could have a good life and maintain her health. She must give birth to a fat boy for him.
When the Queen Mother learned that she was going to have a grandson again, she was very happy and rewarded Su Fei with many things.
Overjoyed, the imperial doctor added: "My wife is already weak. She fell down this time and her fetal position is a little unstable. She needs to take good care of herself and take good care of her health. She must not fall down again."
After the imperial doctor left, the emperor held Concubine Su's hand and asked with concern: "You are pregnant. Why are you so careless that you can fall down even when you walk?"
Concubine Su lowered her head shyly, her eyelashes trembling slightly: "It's all my fault for being careless, Your Majesty, please punish me."
The emperor felt pity and held her fingers tightly: "You have broken my flesh and blood now, how can I be willing to punish you? From now on, you just need to take good care of your body and don't move around, let alone
If you eat indiscriminately, send someone to tell me if anything happens. Don’t worry, I will protect you and no one will dare to bully you mother and son."
Concubine Su snuggled into his arms, her beautiful cheeks full of happiness: "It's my blessing to be loved by His Majesty for three lifetimes. I really love you so much."
The two were affectionate for a long time. After Concubine Su got tired and rested, the emperor quietly got up and left, secretly sending someone to check on Concubine Ying.
Xiao Lezi didn't know about Su Fei's affairs. She was busy taking off her clothes now. She was sweating all over, and water came out of her clothes when she twisted them hard. Her boots and socks were also soaked, and she threw them all in at once.
Wash it in the basin.
After washing her clothes, she was sweating again, so she fetched two buckets of well water. While there was no one around, she quickly took a cold shower, washed away the smelly sweat, wrapped herself up again, and put on thick clothes.
Damn Xia Tian, it was simply torture to her!
She had to change her clothes and pants, but she only brought one pair of boots. After washing, she had no choice but to step on the ground with her bare feet. It happened that Prince Xiao Feng sent someone to bring her a pair of wooden clogs, saying that the weather was hot now.
Wearing clogs is more comfortable.
Xiao Lezi looked down at her delicate and round feet. They were much smaller than ordinary men's feet. If they were to be exposed, she would be suspicious. But if she didn't wear clogs, she would have no shoes to wear, so she couldn't
Let's run around the world with bare feet.
After much deliberation, she finally chose to put on clogs, but before putting on clogs, she put on a pair of white stockings, which could at least cover her up a little.
That night, Xiao Feng and Xiao Shen came to see Xiao Yu. The three brothers gathered together to chat, and by the way, they talked about Concubine Su's pregnancy.
Just as Xiao Lezi came out with the cut ice watermelon, Xiao Feng saw the clogs on her feet at a glance, and his eyes narrowed slightly. When she came closer, he seemed to accidentally chuckle in her ear: "
Your feet are so small, like a woman’s.”
Xiao Lezi glared at him angrily, but since Xiao Yu and Xiao Shen were both present, she did not dare to glare too obviously. After putting down the watermelon, she immediately stood up and stood aside, turning sideways to avoid Xiao Feng's gaze.
After a long time, Xiao Feng and Xiao Shen got up and left. As the younger brother, Xiao Yu quickly got up and said, "I'll see you off."
Xiao Feng smiled and said: "No need to bother, just take a rest and let her see us off."
Following his gaze, everyone looked at Xiao Lezi. Xiao Lezi was stunned on the spot. Before she could speak, Xiao Yu had already nodded in agreement: "That's okay, Xiao Lezi, you can help me see my two brothers off.
Go and come back early."
When the boss spoke, Xiao Lezi could only endure it in frustration, even if he didn't want to.
She bravely sent Xiao Feng and Xiao Shen to the gate of the courtyard: "Two princes, please go slowly. I will go back and report to the seventh prince."
"Don't worry, the night is nice tonight. Please accompany me for a walk." Xiao Feng looked at Xiao Shen next to him, "If you are busy, go back first."
Xiao Shen's eyes turned around Xiao Feng and Xiao Lezi. He seemed to understand something and smiled narrowly: "Okay, okay, I have to go back and eat all the uneaten sour plums at noon. You guys take your time and stroll around."
,see you tomorrow."
After saying that, Xiao Shen ran away without looking back.
Xiao Lezi and Xiao Feng were the only two people left in the quiet courtyard. Xiao Feng glanced at her, and she immediately lowered her head and looked away from him. He stared at her white neck for a while, then smiled softly,
But without saying anything more, he turned around and walked towards the bamboo forest.
Xiao Lezi lowered her head to follow, but she kept thinking about what kind of excuse she should find to escape. Every time she got close to Xiao Feng, she felt a sense of danger that she would be eaten at any time, and instinctively wanted to stay away from him.
The two people walked slowly, one behind the other, their wooden clogs making a clicking sound on the gravel path. Their shadows were stretched by the moonlight, and both sides were covered with slender bamboos, making it very quiet.
The moonlight is bright, the night breeze is refreshing, and such a beautiful scenery makes Xiao Lezi really not want to be alone with a pervert. Mom, I really want to go home!
After walking for who knows how long, when Xiao Lezi came back to his senses, they were already deep in the bamboo forest, surrounded by bamboos and unable to see the way they came.
Are they lost?
Xiao Lezi looked around blankly, trying hard to identify the direction, trying to find a way out.
Possibly because of her anxiety, Xiao Feng seemed very calm. He walked to a large smooth and flat stone and wiped the surface of the stone clean with his sleeves: "You must be tired after walking for so long, right? Come and sit down and rest."
He didn't say it was okay, but when he mentioned it, Xiaolezi's feet really hurt. She couldn't get used to wearing hard clogs, and walking was a little awkward. In addition, after walking for such a long distance, the soles of her feet were hit by the clogs.
It hurt a lot, and the inside of my thumb was burned.
She walked over, sat down holding on to the stone, and rubbed her sore calf.
"Looking at the way you walk, your feet must be hurting, right? I'll give you some pressure and it should feel better." Xiao Feng knelt down on one knee beside her. Regardless of her resistance, he held her ankle and forcibly helped her.
She took off her clogs.
His palms were so big that he could hold her entire feet with one hand. Through the thin socks, heat was continuously transferred from his palms to his feet.
Everyone has their own places that they cannot touch. Xiaolezi's feet are the places that she cannot touch. Just being held by him like this makes her feel hot all over, her face is red, and she is trembling when she speaks: "Let go... let go."
I……"
Instead of letting go, Xiao Feng tightened his grip, pressed her feet tightly with his fingers, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm just massaging you. Relax, I'll be very gentle."
Her fingertips rubbed the soles of her feet through her stockings, which made her feel numb and itchy. She wanted to laugh, but she couldn't. Her whole body was limp, and her strength to resist was getting weaker and weaker. Seeing that he made no further moves, she simply
Stop struggling, grit your teeth, and let him do whatever he wants.
When her fingertips brushed against the inside of her thumb, she felt a sharp pain and she shivered violently.
Xiao Feng stopped his movements: "Does it hurt here?"
Xiao Lezi's whole body was numb now. He was afraid that he would moan when he opened his mouth, so he didn't dare to speak. He could only press his lower lip and nod lightly.
Xiao Feng frowned slightly: "Let me take a look for you."
After saying that, he didn't give Xiao Lezi a chance to refuse, and carefully helped her take off her stockings, revealing her red and swollen thumb. He gently opened his thumb and saw that the skin on the inside had been worn out, so no wonder it hurt so much.
He held her feet, lowered his head and blew gently, hoping to make her feel better.
Xiao Lezi only felt that his feet were more itchy, his face was as red as if he was about to bleed, his eyes were watery, and he felt restless and uneasy. He managed to hold on with all his willpower. (To be continued)
