It was not only Mrs. Ning Hou who was shocked, but also Xiao Nuan. She looked at Xuan Wu on the left and Mama Li on the right, not knowing which one they were playing.

Mama Li's voice was not loud, but it could be heard by everyone here, "Princess, it is slippery after the rain, and the prince told the slaves and maids to help you well." ”

Is the third master going to show affection, or does everyone think she is pregnant? Xiao Nuan stared at her flat little belly and walked forward silently.

The palace maid listened to Mama Li's words, and her originally hurried pace slowed down, and she cautiously led the way.

The Queen Mother is sick, and everyone in the palace is worried, and there is no sound of joy. When Xiao Nuan walked into Cining Palace, he saw that the five-year-old Eighth Prince was in tears, looking anxiously at the inner hall. Xiao Nuan didn't see the third master, so she greeted several imperial concubines and princesses, and walked towards Princess Yi.

Princess Yi saw Mama Li helping Xiao Nuan in, and her eyes fell on Xiao Nuan's stomach like everyone else. She stood up and took a step forward, and Xiao Nuan asked in a low voice, "Second sister-in-law, imperial grandmother?" ”

Princess Yi whispered in her ear, "The father and the queen mother kept watch all night, and the imperial grandmother fell from the bed and cracked her pelvis. ”

Cracked bones? Xiao Nuan was surprised, "How can it be so serious?" ”

Princess Yi shook her head lightly, "I don't know how much it is." ”

Xiao Nuan nodded and sat quietly beside Princess Yi. The queen mother's bed is very large, and there is a thick blanket of tribute from the Western Regions under the bed, even if you fall or touch it, it will not crack the pelvic bone, which is a bit strange.

The pain-relieving decoction finally took effect, and the Queen Mother's constricted brows gradually relaxed. Emperor Jianlong asked softly, "Queen Mother, are you better?" ”

"Emperor, the mourning family can't survive this time." The Queen Mother's voice was old and weak, and Empress Li instantly burst into tears.

Emperor Jianlong is still firm, "The queen mother is at ease, and the emperor will accompany you to watch the fireworks during the winter solstice." ”

When Emperor Jianlong was young, he fell into the conspiracy of his brothers, broke his leg, and was reprimanded by his father. The young unfavored prince lost his mind and was unusually depressed in bed. His queen mother took his hand and coaxed softly, "Don't be afraid, when your leg is healed on the winter solstice, the mother will take my son to watch the fireworks." ”

The past is vivid, the Queen Mother smiled with tears, and the fine lines on her lips became more and more obvious. People are old and know the destiny of heaven, she knows that the year has come, and she should not be able to see the fireworks of this year's winter solstice.

"Where's the rice ball?"

Emperor Jianlong didn't speak, and Empress Li also lowered her head.

When the big white cat rice ball was frightened during the thunder last night, the queen mother got up to comfort it, but stepped on the ball used to play with the rice ball and fell and injured herself. It can be said that Mi Tuan is the main culprit of the Queen Mother's injury, and Emperor Jianlong was angry and had it arrested.

The Queen Mother smiled clearly, "What can it understand as an animal, it's not it that is dirty." ”

It's not it, it's people. Seeing that the Queen Mother didn't say anything further, the queen stood up with interest, "I learned that the queen mother was injured, everyone is here, daughter-in-law go out to have a look, you rest first." ”

The eunuch and palace maid in the house retreated, and the queen mother said, "The mourning family saw a shadow flashing here last night, that thing was much bigger than Ah Bao, and it looked like a child with a long tail. The mourning family was frightened and stepped on the ball, and the matter had nothing to do with Po. ”

Emperor Jianlong carefully inquired about the scene at that time, and the silkworm frowned majestically, "I will find out about this matter." ”

The Queen Mother closed her eyes, "The mourning family is old, and there are no expensive things in the room, so it is worth not being remembered." ”

Emperor Jianlong nodded, and as soon as he left the room, Dexi stepped forward and whispered, "Long live, the youth group with cats committed suicide." ”

Emperor Jianlong calmly ordered, "Arrest the eunuchs who are guarding him, and pass on Jiangya and Anshun." ”

After Emperor Jianlong left, the ladies who entered the palace to visit the sick entered to pay a visit. Xiao Nuan and Princess Yi, Princess Jian, Princess He and others were the first batch.

When they entered, the queen mother's face no longer looked old and decadent, her white hair was meticulously combed, her eyes were clear, her speech was clear, and she even asked about the relatives of Chai Fang, the son of King Jian.

After Princess Jian and the others went out, the Queen Mother left Princess Yi, Xiao Nuan, Mrs. Ning Hou and the two nieces and granddaughters of the Fang family to speak, and the words were full of the love of the other party.

Subsequently, the Queen Mother led the words to Xiao Nuan, "After Wanqing gets married, there will be only one Bang Xiu left in the house, and it is inevitable that she will be lonely." If you are bored, go to your third sister-in-law to play, and she will be alone in the house, and she will be bored. ”

This could not be clearer, Fang Wanxiu nodded with a red face.

If it weren't for the third master's advice not to let herself directly conflict with the queen mother, Xiao Nuan really wanted to go back with a word, she smiled on her face and said, "Sister Bangxiu will go over to play when she is bored, and my sister-in-law will teach you to read the account book." ”

Fang Wanxiu was slightly stunned and nodded a little coquettishly.

The Queen Mother didn't expect Xiao Nuan to be so knowledgeable, so she followed her words and asked, "What about teaching Bangxiu, do you recognize all the words in the account book?" ”

Xiao Nuan pursed her lips disobediently, "If the imperial grandmother doesn't believe it, the granddaughter-in-law will take the account book tomorrow, and you can casually draw words and ask the granddaughter-in-law to admit it, and admit the punishment if you admit a wrong granddaughter-in-law." ”

"You monkey, don't want to fool the mourning family with a book with few words." The Queen Mother laughed.

Xiao Nuan smiled and bent her eyes, "You guessed everything?" ”

Everyone laughed with them, and the atmosphere in the room immediately eased.

The Queen Mother took Xiao Nuan's hand and said kindly, "With your little cleverness, the mourning family can't think of it?" Don't just look at the account books, but also learn from your second sister-in-law, if you can learn half of your second sister-in-law, the mourning family will be content. ”

What do you learn from your second sister-in-law? Help your husband take a concubine? Xiao Nuan responded.

The Queen Mother said, "After Sheng'er got married, the mourning family looked at him with a smile on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, this is all your credit, you have to open up the branches and leaves for Sheng'er as soon as possible." ”

Xiao Nuan "shyly" lowered her head and looked at her flat lower abdomen, and the branches and leaves couldn't be said to be there.

Subsequently, the Queen Mother asked about the pregnant concubine in King Yi's mansion, and Princess Yi replied decently.

From beginning to end, the Queen Mother never let go of Xiao Nuan's hand. When they were about to leave, the Queen Mother said to Xiao Nuan again, "Next time I bring Xiaocao, she hasn't come to Mourning's house to play for a while." ”

Xiao Nuan responded with a smile.

Before leaving, Mrs. Ninghou looked at the Queen Mother again, hoping that she could say something to herself or Bang Xiu, but the Queen Mother lowered her eyelids and didn't look at her.

Mrs. Ninghou was disappointed, but also understood what the Queen Mother meant. In the eyes of the Queen Mother, Xiao Nuan is the concubine of King Sheng's Mansion, no matter how much she likes Bang Xiu, she will not let Bang Xiu be bigger than Xiao Nuan and mess up the rules. The Queen Mother's treatment of the Fang family is not as good as before, and Mrs. Ninghou does not dare to make the Queen Mother unhappy, and consumes this last bit of affection.

Out of the inner hall, a palace maid invited Princess Yi to Funing Palace. Looking at the face of this palace maid, Princess Yi knew that the queen mother had something to do with her, and she whispered to Xiao Nuan, "Brother and sister are going to Chonghua Palace?" ”

If she goes to Chonghua Palace, the two can still walk on the same road for a while.

Xiao Nuan shook her head, and the third master was relieved of the news and asked her to leave the palace as soon as possible, "Xiao Nuan is a little tired, and I will enter the palace another day to ask the queen mother and the concubine." ”

Princess Yi didn't say much, and walked quickly.

Xiao Nuan got rid of Mrs. Ning Hou, who had been close to her, and asked Xuan Wu in a low voice after getting into the carriage, "What else did the third master say?" ”
