There was originally a light curtain in the color of the blue lake hanging between the partitions, which was slightly tied up with double swallow gold hooks.The candlelight in the depths is reflected, faintly like a shimmering haze.Turning around the curtain, I saw Lin Lang reclining on the big pillow. The pillow was originally a fragrance-colored background with gold thread pinching teeth, but it set off a face that was not even half blood-colored. The head pillow slid down, scattered like a waterfall of black jade.Originally, the melon-seeded face was much thinner and thinner, but her eyes were closed, and she might have fallen asleep.Youzi frowned slightly, her brows were already very pale, as if surrounded by light smoke.

In front of the couch, there was a court lady, who was sitting on a twig blowing a bowl of boiling medicine, and suddenly looked up at the emperor, almost knocking over the medicine bowl in her hand, and only exclaimed: "Long live the emperor." Only then did she see her, and instinctively waved her hands, but Lin Lang had already opened her eyes, which were still black and white, clear and shining, the emperor was stunned there, but she slowly closed them, only for a split second. Opening it again, it seemed that he had just woken up and realized who the person in front of him was.A misty look of water gradually floated up in his eyes, which slowly condensed into tears, and he was about to cry.

The emperor had thousands of words in his heart, and he was choked up there for a while, but he couldn't look away anymore, he didn't know whether it was pain or regret, love or pity, it was as messy as a silk net, with thousands of entanglements.Seeing the tears in the corners of her lips, she tried her best to hold herself back, but she still couldn't hold back the tears, which rolled down her jade-like face, landed on the skirt of her clothes, and disappeared.He was extremely sad in his heart, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly, but he couldn't say that sentence after all.

Jin Qiu said in a low voice: "Long Live Lord, this servant is going to make medicine for the master." After kowtowing, he quietly retreated out.Hearing her words, the emperor came back to his senses and approached slowly. She struggled slightly, as if she wanted to get up, her eyes showed a bit of desolation, her face was still pale and bloodless, Even the lips are faintly blue, and because of the weight loss, the eyelashes become longer and longer, like a pair of black butterfly wings, gently covering the eyes, and occasionally glimpses of eye waves between opening and closing, but it is autumn water.At this time, the tears are gone, only the black pupils, but the thin dust floats dimly.His heart tightened, as if someone had stabbed his heart with a knife, and the pain was unbearable, creating a suffocating chill.

The snow gradually stopped, and the night wind blew on the man's face like a knife.Standing under the eaves, Liang Jiugong rubbed his hands with the cold. From a distance, he saw a melon-skin lantern entering the courtyard gate. When he got closer, he could see that it was supported by a maid, dressed in red satin, through the dim light of the lantern in the porch. The cloak was wrapped around the hood to cover most of his face, Liang Jiugong was taken aback for a moment before he recognized who it was, and hurriedly said, "Greetings to Master Hui." Seeing that it was him, Concubine Hui thought it was the emperor who sent him, so she nodded and went straight to the palace.But Liang Jiugong didn't get up, and called out again: "Master Hui." Then Concubine Hui became suspicious, Li Dequan had already come out from the inside, so she just greeted him silently, Concubine Hui ate a bit when she saw him. Surprised, he was stunned before asking: "Is the Lord Long Live inside?" Li Dequan didn't answer, but smiled and said: "If the master has something important, the slave will go in and defend the master."

Concubine Hui said: "Where is there going to be something important, I'll just come and see her tomorrow." Holding the maid's arm, she walked down the steps slowly, Li Dequan watched her go far, then turned around and went into the hall, outside the room After standing there for a while, he took out a western pendant watch bestowed by the emperor from his lapel, opened it and looked at the red candle, seeing that it was almost time to release the key to the palace gate, he was secretly anxious.After waiting for a while, seeing that he could no longer delay, Fang walked to the door and coughed lightly.

The emperor had been sitting motionless for a long time, his arms felt slightly sore, she stared down, there were still tears in the corners of her eyes, her brows were slightly frowned in her dream, but her hands were tightly clutching his skirt, he sat sideways on the kang, It was an extremely uncomfortable position, but at this moment, he didn't want to move at all, he just wanted to go on like this, even if it was just like this for one night, even if it was like this for a lifetime.Hearing Li Dequan's urging, knowing that the palace gate was about to be released, her body was soft and soft in his arms, the familiar fragrance in the temple hair, all kinds of reluctance, knowing that she was rarely asleep, and afraid of waking her up, finally slowly straightened up , she woke up after all, and opened her eyes to look at him. He felt sad, but smiled at her: "I'm leaving." She hummed lightly, and he whispered: "You just promised me, In the future, I will give birth to many little elder brothers for me, little Gege, you must not break your promise."

Her eyes were gloomy, but a smile barely appeared on the corner of her lips, and she said in a low voice: "I'm afraid the palace gate is about to be keyed." The emperor knew that there would be no further delay. Getting into trouble again, she finally stood up, she watched him take a few steps, then turned her head, glanced at her, and turned away from the partition, finally out of sight. Concubine Hui returned to her own palace, just restless.Accompanying her to Chuxiu Palace was the girl Chengxiang she brought into the palace. Seeing her appearance, Chengxiang took tea and offered it to Concubine Hui, and quietly ordered everyone to go down. Fang whispered: "Master, don't worry too much."

Concubine Hui said: "Why don't you tell me not to worry." After a pause, she said: "Look at the situation today, it must be that the Long Live Lord is in the room - he can't even care about the rules and taboos, this Lin Lang..." Said When he heard the name, he gritted his teeth lightly again: "How amazing." Cheng Xiang said: "Master, don't worry, no matter what she does, she can't surpass you, master." Concubine Hui said: "You know that I'm not worried about this. I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. If she knew how bad things happened to the Wei family that day, she would definitely have suspicions. Now she is the person on Long Live's heart, in front of the emperor. Just a few words of provocation, and our life will be difficult."

Cheng Xiang said: "Didn't Master always say that Lord Long Live has always separated the front court from the rear palace very clearly, and is not favoritism?" Concubine Hui said: "Ama thought that she must be selected and will be released. , is also an old girl in her twenties, and she can't marry a good man, so unexpectedly, she will be self-defeating." Cheng Xiang thought for a while, and said: "The old lady is not coming to the palace today—it's a pity that the fourth wife didn't come, otherwise there would be a discussion." Concubine Hui just lost her mind, and after a long time said: "The old lady has been kept in the dark all these years, it's hard to teach her the old man to know about such things." She reached out to take the tea, and sighed softly: "Just take a step and count." Just take one step. Now that she is gaining momentum, there is nothing we can do. But Long Live God values ​​her so much, so some people will hate her so much. Let's just look back and push the boat along the way when the time comes, so it will save worry and effort."

The weather is getting warmer day by day, this day Concubine Hui went to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager, as soon as she entered the palace gate, she heard laughter in the Nuan Pavilion, she went in with a smile on her face, and saluted first, the Empress Dowager said with a smile: "You two It turned out to be an appointment." Only then did Concubine Hui see Tong Guifei sitting on the lower kang, while Concubine Duan was sitting on the west chair, and another person was graceful and coquettish, and she was also very charming among the flowers, Concubine Hui saw Concubine Tong and Concubine Duan Li, smiled and said: "Today is really a coincidence." Qianqian took Linlang's hand and asked: "Is my sister well?" Duan concubine smiled to the Empress Dowager: "Look, they are a family after all, love Very different." Concubine Hui hurriedly said: "Sister Duan's words are wrong. Could it be that I and Sister Duan are not from the same family?" .” Concubine Hui took Linlang's hand and sat down on the kang together.The Empress Dowager said: "I have a pity for your sister, who is in good health and weak in temperament. Just now I asked to pass some dim sum, and I watched coldly from the side, but she only ate half a piece of hibiscus puff pastry. I remember that this pastry is your honor to me. Yes, you can’t be stingy, just ask your little kitchen to send it to her, Tong Jiashi told the imperial dining room, just give a double order.” Concubine Tong respectfully responded, Lin Lang hurriedly stood up, and said: "Thank you, Empress Dowager, Lin Lang dare not." Concubine Hui hurriedly said: "What are those crisps worth? It's just that my sister used to eat at home. , so it's just a matter of taste. My empress dowager thinks I'm so stingy, will I still be able to hold my head up in front of my sister in the future?" Concubine Duan smiled at her and said, "I told the Empress Dowager just now that you treat your girl very kindly." Concubine Hui said angrily to the Empress Dowager, "Look, this man always calls me Sister, I don’t recognize her anymore—my sister, isn’t she her sister.” Concubine Duan smiled and said: "It's time to fight, I didn't say the wrong thing again." It caused everyone to laugh, and they talked jokingly. Seeing that the Empress Dowager was a little tired, they all retreated.Concubine Duan and Concubine Hui both dropped by on the way. They went back together. It was a beautiful spring and they were sharing flowers and willows along the way. What a happy event." Concubine Duan said: "Congratulations to my sister, there is such a good girl. Needless to say, the emperor treats my sister, and now that Lin Lang is favored by the Lord Long Live, my sister is the icing on the cake." Concubine Hui smiled and said, "I'm young and ignorant, so I expect you to take care of me." Concubine Duan said, "Don't worry, sister. Didn't sister also say that my sister's sister is my sister?" Nalan Rongruo "Linjiang Immortal" The silky rain is like dust and clouds, and the water is scattered, and the fragrant fragrance is picked up by Wu Gong.The flowers are warm and cold to avoid the east wind.Cool and tender and easy to disperse, swallows learn to cuddle up red. People say that the disease should decrease with the month, but the sickness is the same as spring.May stay butterflies embrace flowers.Not a pair of dream shadows, laughing at Xing Liangkong. Chapter Thirty-Three (Revised) The snow gradually stopped, and the night wind blew on the man's face like a knife.Standing under the eaves, Liang Jiugong rubbed his hands with the cold. From a distance, he saw a melon-skin lantern entering the courtyard gate. When he got closer, he could see that it was supported by a maid, dressed in red satin, through the dim light of the lantern in the porch. The cloak was wrapped around the hood to cover most of his face, Liang Jiugong was taken aback for a moment before he recognized who it was, and hurriedly said, "Greetings to Master Hui." Seeing that it was him, Concubine Hui thought it was the emperor who sent him, so she nodded and went straight to the palace.But Liang Jiugong didn't get up, and called out again: "Master Hui." Then Concubine Hui became suspicious, Li Dequan had already come out from the inside, so she just greeted him silently, Concubine Hui ate a bit when she saw him. Surprised, he was stunned before asking: "Is the Lord Long Live inside?" Li Dequan didn't answer, but smiled and said: "If the master has something important, the slave will go in and defend the master." Concubine Hui said: "Where is there any important matter, just come and have a look at her - I will come back tomorrow." Holding the maid's arm, she walked down the stairs slowly, Li Dequan watched her go far, Fang turned and entered Go inside the hall and stand outside for a while, but the emperor has already come out.Li Dequan saw that his expression was indifferent, he couldn't tell whether it was happiness or worry, he was muttering in his heart, he hurriedly followed the emperor out, and when he reached the gate of the hall, he watched the emperor stepping out dumbly, and hurriedly called out: "Long live Lord, the threshold!" Thanks to his sound, the emperor didn't stumble on the threshold, he took a step forward to support the emperor's elbow, and said in a low voice, "Long live, what's the matter with you?" The emperor collected himself, The tone seemed to be ordinary: "I'm fine." His eyes were only on the dark shadows outside the corridor, the wind lamp hanging under the corridor was extremely dark, Li Dequan could only vaguely see the corners of his lips sinking slightly, and then his expression returned to normal. Seeing the two of them coming out, Liang Jiugong came up to wrap up the windbreaker for the emperor, walked out of the Hanging Flower Gate, and walked along the long Yongxiang. Only then did Liang Jiugong feel something was wrong, but the emperor walked faster and faster , he and Li Dequan followed panting, the cold night wind blowing straight into the mouth and nose, the throat seemed to be cut by a blunt knife, as if a thorn had been born.Seeing the emperor heading north, Li Dequan was startled, he went straight up a few steps, gasped and said in a low voice, "Long Live Lord, the palace gate is about to be unlocked." The emperor remained silent, his feet did not stop, They couldn't see their expressions in the dim night, both of them had followed Yuqian for many years, their hearts were agitated, they exchanged a wink, they could only follow the emperor closely. Go through the garden all the way to Shunzhen Gate.The Shunzhen Gate was about to drop the key, and the inner court guard saw three people from a distance, and asked loudly, "Who is it? The key is under the palace gate, and idlers are not allowed to move around." Li Dequan hurriedly shouted: "Bold, your driver is here." Only then did Wei realize that it was the emperor, and he was so terrified that he knelt down to salute, but the emperor only said two words: "Open the door." .Li Dequan guessed five or six points in his heart, knowing that he must not persuade him, so he had to follow the emperor out of the Shunzhen gate. On the way, they all knelt down, and the commander bit the bullet and kowtowed: "Your servant is bold, please drive back to the palace, Your Majesty." The emperor said indifferently: "I will go back after I come out for a walk, don't make a fuss." The commander had no choice but to "squeak" and led his people to surround the emperor and went up the tower. Although the snow had stopped, the north wind roared like a roar above the city tower, blowing the feathered satin cloak on the emperor's body fluttering.Liang Jiugong only felt that the wind was blowing cold to the bone, so he shivered, and persuaded in a low voice: "Long live Lord, the wind is extremely cold and cold in this snowy night. Long live Lord, who has a body of ten thousand gold, is afraid that if he is caught by the wind and cold, it will still be cold." Get up and go back." The emperor only stared at the depths of the dark city wall, and after a long time, he said: "I'm going to go for a walk before going back." Li Dequan had no choice but to wink at Liang Jiugong.Liang Jiugong said: "That slave will illuminate the light for the Lord Long Live." The emperor kept silent, and only stretched out one hand. Liang Jiugong had no choice but to offer the silver-gilt glass lamp in his hand to the emperor with both hands. Seeing the emperor walking slowly with the lamp Towards the depths of the night, he did not give up and followed step by step. The emperor suddenly turned his head, his eyes were like cold stars, and those eyes were cold, as if they were colder than the night wind and snow. He shivered and had to stand in the original place I watched helplessly as the glimmer of the glass lamp gradually faded away. Everyone stood on the city tower, the wind was so cold that it was so cold that people were almost numb.Li Dequan was extremely anxious, and his eyes were fixed on the faint light of the star in the distance.Liang Jiugong also stared at it for a moment, the small light was only faintly visible in the night wind.Everyone was full of air and didn't dare to come out, only heard the north wind whimpering, blowing the copper bells hanging from the eaves of the city tower, clanging in the wind.The light finally stopped in the extreme depths, and after a long time, it just stopped moving. Li Dequan felt numb all over his body, the cold wind seemed to be pouring into his chest all the time, and it was very difficult to even blink his eyes. He still felt cold before, but now he didn't even feel the cold anymore. It's like being frozen, just listening to one's own heart, jumping there, even though it's jumping, there is no trace of warmth coming out.At this moment, I watched the light suddenly fly across the night, and then fell straight down like a shooting star, and fell into the city wall in an instant.Li Dequan's face turned pale with fright, he blurted out: "Long Live Lord!" and ran forward. Everyone was so frightened that their faces were pale, the commander and the guards rushed towards the city wall, and ran straight out of the place where three arrows were shot, only to see the emperor standing upright in front of the battlements, he was relieved.The clothes in Li Dequan's back were soaked with sweat, he kowtowed repeatedly, and said, "Long Live Lord, you scared this slave to death——I beg Long Live Lord to take good care of you." The emperor smiled slightly, and the guards were all holding shofar lanterns in their hands, arching around his side, illuminated by the faint light, the emperor's face seemed calm and composed: "Isn't I good-looking?" Looking far away, the cold night was heavy, You can have a panoramic view of the lights of the few houses in Jiucheng.The corners of the emperor's lips were raised, and he seemed to be smiling very comfortably: "Look, this world belongs to me, why don't I take care of my bow?" Li Dequan heard that there was no trace of joy or anger in his tone, but his heart was extremely panicked. I had to kowtow again, but I heard the emperor say in my ears: "Get up and go back to the palace." Linlang took care of her for more than a month, and Fang gradually improved. This day, she was finally able to walk around in the ground. After taking the medicine, Linlang saw Bi Luo coming in, with a different expression than before, so she asked, "What's the matter?" Bi Luo hesitated to speak, but still According to the rules, the master had to answer the questions, thought for a while, and said: "The servant came back from the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and I heard Cui Dada talk about the Lord Long Live..." She hesitated like this, Lin Lang asked: "What's wrong with the Lord Long Live? "Bi Luo said: "Return to the master's words, saying that the Long Live Lord Sheng Gong violated the peace." Lin Lang was startled, and after a while he asked: "The Sheng Gong violated the peace, what did the imperial doctors say?" It has not been a day or two since Sheng Gong violated the peace. The Imperial Hospital judged Liu Shengfang's pulse case. At first, the pulse condition was only floating and tight, but it was just an external wind and cold. The emperor left the palace and went to Nanyuan. On the way, he abandoned his father and took a horse. After arriving in Nanyuan, he felt a little relapse, but he still did not listen to the dissuasion of the imperial doctor. After several days, the Empress Dowager was so anxious that she sent Li Yingzi and Sun Zhiding to Nanyuan.The three historians of the imperial hospital discussed the prescription. According to the rules, the pulse case had to be presented to the empress dowager and the empress dowager, and had to inform the cabinet minister Sheng Gong to violate the agreement. There is also a cough with pain in the chest and hypochondrium, coughing due to reverse qi, less and thick phlegm, red face, dry throat, yellow moss and less fluid, and stringy pulse. Biluo heard it from Cui Bangji's mouth, and she seemed to understand it. Linlang listened to her report again, and only slightly knew that it was an exogenous disorder. He was so ill that he couldn't govern, and sat there silently, with so many thoughts in his mind, that he couldn't grasp a single thought. Bi Luo had no choice but to persuade: "Master's own health is better, so don't be too anxious. Long live God is the venerable god of ten thousand vehicles, and he is naturally cared for by hundreds of gods, and those imperial doctors of the Taiyuan Hospital are guarding Nanyuan every step of the way. It must be nothing to worry about." Seeing that Lin Lang was still in a daze, she could only say some words of reassurance.of Lin Lang sat there, lost in thought for a while, but said: "I'm going to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager." Bi Luo said: "Although the weather is warm, the master has just recuperated, so it's okay to go again in a few days." Lin Lang shook gently Shaking his head, he said, "Bring the big clothes." Her body was still weak, she was covered in thin sweat when she arrived outside the Palace of Compassion and Ning, she had adjusted her make-up and clothes before going in and paying her respects first.The Empress Dowager was sitting on the kang, she was still loving and peaceful, she just told people: "Help me up quickly." Then she said: "Is it okay? It should take a few more days to raise it. It seems that you are not angry enough when you speak. "Lin Lang thanked her, and the Empress Dowager gave her a seat again. Only then did she see Concubine Tong sitting on the west kang, her eyes were slightly red, as if she had cried.of "Huanxi Yarn" by Nalan Rongruo Can Xue Ninghui's cold painting screen.The flute of Luomei has already changed three times.No one is in the dim moonlight.
