The emperor stood up and went to the East Warm Pavilion: "Take the "Spring and Autumn Annals" I often read, I will read the book for a while, and you will talk to you after washing up."

Ruyi bowed and replied "yes", and A Ruo served Ruyi and added a bowl of soup. The candles in the Western Warehouse were bright and bright, making A Ruo's pretty face look so happy that she looked like a peach blossom.

Ruyi smiled and looked at her, and whispered: "Hide your happy eyes quickly. When the emperor sees it, he will inevitably feel that you can't hold back."

A Ruo touched her face and said embarrassedly: "Can't you really hide it?"

Ruyi smiled and said, "Yes, yes. But remember, as long as you are careful, you have a future and you can have a good future. But don't be proud, it will spread all the things, for fear that people with ulterior motives will be concerned about it."

A Ruo hurriedly agreed.

That night, the emperor stayed here in Ruyi and did not mention it.

Late at night, the little eunuch was guarding the night outside the bedroom. A Ruo came out and looked around. Seeing that the bedroom had fallen asleep, he ordered the palace people to turn off a few palace lanterns and disperse to rest on their own.

A Ruo returned to her room and looked at the furnishings of the room that were housed by palace maids, but it was more than ten times better than those of Luhen and the others. It was because of her success in her family and Ruyi’s dowry. After that, Ah Ma was promoted step by step, and she had hope for her future. Thinking of this, Ah Ruo became more and more proud. As soon as she entered the door, she sat in front of the bronze mirror dressing table, slowly washed her hands and took off her makeup. She saw that Yang Xin was only focused on the bed and quilt, and glanced at Yang Xin and said, "Although I and you are both palace maids serving the little master, you have heard the words of the emperor today. From now on, I will be even different from you."

Wang Xin never argued with her, but only smiled humbly and said, "Congratulations to my sister, my mother's family has such a big happy event."

A Ruo dipped some apricot flour to her face, and rubbed it carefully and said, "This apricot flour is good. I mixed the apricot flour into powder and grind it carefully. It can be nourishing to me. It was my Mama who specially brought it to me from outside." She looked at Yu's heart with a arrogant look with a look of a squinting eyes, "Actually, what is Ama doing like this? The little master has appreciated me a lot on weekdays."

The tassels and purses hanging on the bed tent: "The little master naturally loves my sister."

A Ruo nodded slightly, took off the several beaded silk flowers dotted in the bun, leaned on her arm and said, "I love you, I am also good at it, and you should be even more flirted in the future. Although we live together, there is a difference between the upper and lower parts. I am from a banner, but you bought it for two hundred yuan. The future of the house will be your business."

Wang was thinking that Xinghong Tassel's fingers trembled slightly, and then said, "I understand."

A Ruo nodded: "I'm sweating all over and feeling so uncomfortable. Go and fetch water to wipe my body. Also, use mugwort to smoke it well, don't let mosquitoes bite me in the middle of the night."

That was what the little girl below did. Although A Ruo was more domineering, she would not have used her like this. Huang Xin only felt that her hands were slippery, and she was cold and wet when she touched the purse. It was probably really hot, and sweat was coming out on her hands. Huang Xin agreed and went too.

The next morning, the emperor was about to go to the morning court. Ruyi served the emperor early and stood up. He reminded Xiao Fuzi to call Yonghuang to get up and prepare to go to Shangshu Room to study. The emperor was about to leave, but Ruyi thought and said with a smile: "The emperor's braid is a little messy. It's still early to go to court. I'll comb the emperor's hair."

The emperor smiled slightly, sat in front of the mirror and said, "When you were in the residence, you often comb my hair for me, and now you are lazy."

Ruyi smiled and said, "I want to be diligent and cautious, but the emperor's appearance has not been relaxed after ascending the throne. I think that only that hair is unwilling to give me a chance."

The emperor smiled and twisted her cheek: "I'm more and more kidding."

Ruyi took the rhinoceros horn comb, combed the emperor's hair loosely, and combed it carefully bit by bit. The emperor looked at her dipped in the flower water of her hair, and asked, "What kind of water is your hair combing? Isn't it ordinary shaving water?"

Ruyi smiled and said, "What's the good thing about shaved water? I don't like the taste. This flower water is filled with mint, black essence, sour ginseng, angelica, Polygonum multiflorum, dried ginger, soap beans, Gastrodia elata, mulberry seeds, treya, walnut kernels, orchidacea leaves and other medicines. It is mixed with snow water on plum blossoms in winter and elm flower water. It is also mixed with jasmine and gardenia. In addition to the pleasant and elegant aroma, it is often used to dip in hair to comb it, which can nourish blood and warm the kidneys and make the hair black and vigorous."

The emperor smiled with a gentle and elegant style: "I thought you were very particular about using things, but it turned out that you were all here."

Ruyi tied the emperor's hair and tied the bright yellow and golden silk fringes on the tip of the braid, and tied the corners of the jade eight treasures one by one, then smiled and said, "My daughter's mind is just a little bit small, no better than the world of the emperor's heart."

The emperor looked at the rhinoceros horn comb in her hand: "I remember you have used this comb for many years. Look at the patina all over the rhinoceros horn, which is probably what you used when your daughter was at home."

Ruyi caressed the comb with care: "I like things that last for a long time."

The emperor held her hand, his face full of spring smiles, and he became more and more beautiful: "People say they are old and old. I use your flower water to comb my hair all day long. Wouldn't it be like you always have black hair until you grow old and not white?"

Countless snow-white gardenia bloomed in the courtyard, and the plain-like tangerine tangerine was like snow and frost, full of ice and cold fragrance. Ruyi looked at him gently, half smiling and half anger, but the joy turned into tears in her eyes: "The emperor is accustomed to laugh at me."

The emperor took a little seriousness and said, "I am only seven years older than you. Although the years have passed, I slowly walk hand in hand. There will always be white hair and eyebrows that will last until we grow old."

Ruyi's nose was slightly sour, and the hot flashes in her eyes were even more intense. There were so many women in the palace, just like endless gardenias in the courtyard. The first one had not yet shedded, and the next one had already bloomed impatiently. Their lives were still so long, the emperor was only twenty-six, and he was only nineteen. I still don't know how many fragrant flowers there were on the road ahead, and bees and butterflies were surrounding her. But at this moment, this sincerity was enough to touch her.

The emotion in her heart was like a cloud of waves, and she smiled and tears: "When I am a child's skin and a crane's hair, the emperor will not want to see it."

The emperor said: "You have chicken skin and crane hair, why don't I? This is the real way to see each other."

Ruyi stretched out her hand to the emperor's shoulder, and her head pressed tightly against his neck, listening to his heart beating, as if it was a heavy promise. After a long time, she finally responded with this heart: "As long as the emperor wants, I will always accompany the emperor. No matter how far or how long it takes, I will keep walking."

The emperor smiled and kissed her cheek, and suddenly bit her butterfly pearl earrings: "It doesn't matter. I want you to respond with something."

Ruyi blushed and pushed the emperor: "What?"

The emperor raised his index finger and slapped, and said in her ear: "Looking in the mirror, I am in pairs with you, and my shadow is also in pairs."

Ruyi looked at the glasses, the mud-gold lotus ties and the flowers and leaves were all paired in pairs. Ruyi sneered: "I thought of it, and I will naturally give it to the emperor."

The emperor refused to let it go easily: "Don't be dependent."

Ruyi nodded and watched the sky light light up one by one: "Your Majesty, get up quickly, don't be too late."

It happened that the knock on the door outside was Yonghuang's childish voice calling out: "Mother."

Ruyi hurriedly opened the door and saw A Ruo and Xiao Fuzi pulling Yonghuang one by one and carrying books for him. Yonghuang came in and asked for a respectful invitation: "Please pay tribute to Emperor Ama, and to mother."

Ruyi hurriedly helped him up and gathered his hair pity for him: "I'm sleeping so hard that my hair is a little boring, my mother combs it for you before leaving." After that, she took the comb and combed it for Yonghuang.

Yonghuang blinked, looking at the joy of succeeding his conspiracy: "Mother, my son deliberately puffed his hair so that you will comb it for me."

The emperor watched from the side, but he didn't feel like he was beloved by his son: "Your mother's hands are very soft, and it's very comfortable to comb her hair, right?"

Yonghuang nodded vigorously, and held the emperor's hand with a happy expression and hooked it. The emperor loved him and took Yonghuang's hand and said, "The Emperor is going to go to the morning court. But it's still early. You can follow the Emperor. The Emperor will send you to Shangshufang to meet your master today, okay?"

A glee flashed in Yonghuang's eyes, and he quickly said calmly: "Son, thank you Emperor Ahma."

Before the emperor went out, he looked at Ruyi who was seeing him and said, "I have something to tell you first. Mei Changzai's pregnancy was my first child since he ascended the throne. I am very happy, so I plan to make her a noble person." He leaned close to Ruyi's ear and said nothing, "But I hope you more, I like both boys and girls."

Ruyi's face was burning hot, but she did not dare to show any expression. She had to insist on herself: "I respectfully send it to the emperor."

Yonghuang held the emperor's hand tightly and walked out, saying along the way: "Emperor, my son can recite all the "Analects of Confucius"..." He said, turning around and squeezing at Ruyi, and following the emperor out.

A Ruo sent it to the palace gate and turned in again, smiling: "The eldest prince is really smart, you can understand it at a glance. If the emperor personally sends it to Shangshu Room, the eldest prince will not be wronged again in the future."

Ruyi smiled and suddenly her eyes fell on A Ruo, and she was still stumbling. A Ruo felt a little embarrassed by Ruyi's eyes. She touched her temples and cuffs uneasily, and said with a forced smile: "What's wrong with the little master looking at me like this?"

Ruyi's eyes lost their gentle temperature and said coldly: "Your outfit is almost as close to Xiu's newly conferred promise. But Xiu's promised face is not as calm and arrogant as you."

A Ruo was a little embarrassed. She touched the densely packed cherry red branches with her cuffs. The color must have been made by the little palace maids for a long time. Each petal of embroidery was lit with jade-colored stamens, and even-numbered green leaves fell on the green pink fabric, which was very bright. A Ruo's embroidery shoes were also embroidered with flowers. The palace maids' shoes could be embroidered, but they wanted to be simple. A Ruo's pink and blue embroidery shoes were decorated with rouge-colored flowers, fearing that people would not see them. It reflected a handful of silk flowers of the same color dotted between the black hair and the burnt blue rice beads, which became more and more eye-catching.

Ruyi frowned and said, "When you entered the palace, you knew that palace maids should dress simply and not be frivolous in their words. Especially when dressing, they should be like gems and jade, and they should be moistened from the inside out. You see, you wear pink and green, like a colored glass ball, just for the surface glory?"

A Ruo's face turned into a shrimp color, and she stuttered: "I am also happy for the little master, so she dressed up brighter."

Ruyi combed her hair in the mirror, and then tied up her plump bun with her heart, and lit a few green beads as decorations. She also chose a Jiansu white jade bead hairpin, and said, "Are you happy for me or for your contributions? You are the most qualified palace maid in the Yanxi Palace, and it is the same as Wangxin. But you have to understand that identity is not exchanged for special decorations." Seeing A Ruo showing a little embarrassed look, she only rubbed the corners of her clothes and did not speak, so she could only ease her tone, "Especially the queen doesn't like the luxury in the palace. Now, although she is a little looser than before, the concubine is allowed to use gold jewelry, but the palace maids dressed out in an extraordinary manner and must be punished."

Seeing Ruyi's expression a little more peaceful, A Ruo muttered, "I also know that I am different from others. I am serving the little master in close proximity, so..."

Ruyi was upset when she saw that she was so ignorant: "Except for the first lunar month and the birthday of the birthday, palace maids are not allowed to wear red. Look at your clothes and shoes. If you are seen by someone outside, you may have to be beaten with a bamboo board. If you hit the bamboo board, it is a small matter, and embarrassing is a big matter. Let the eunuchs who enforce the law take off their clothes and take off their pants. If they don't have any affection, they will be embarrassed to death."

A Ruo was startled and knelt down and said, "I am just happy, I didn't think so much. Little master, I..."

Ruyi picked up a pair of jade leaf and golden cicada pendants and was about to put them on the collar. Seeing her look, she felt annoyed and scolded: "Take it off quickly. You are not allowed to wear these clothes, shoes and socks until the New Year!"

A Ruo panicked. Ruyi glanced at Yingxin: "She is now more frivolous. You live with her and also remind her." Seeing Yingxin, she just was silent and smiled bitterly, "Yes, I may not listen to all of her words, let alone you? You don't get angry with her. Go down."

When Yeshen returned to the room, A Ruo was only wearing a middle-clothed shirt and was lying on the dressing table. She took off her clothes and threw them on the bed, like a ball of wrinkled flowers. When Yeshen heard her coming in, A Ruo hurriedly wiped her tears and said angrily: "Yi Xin, tell the truth, I look good in this way, right?"

Wang Xin smiled and said, "It's very good, but..."

"It's just that the little master thinks I'm too good to be afraid of stealing her limelight. I just sent the eldest prince to the little master's bedroom and saw the emperor and the little master looking in the mirror. Half of my figure fell into the mirror, and I didn't think it was annoying anyone's eyes. Unexpectedly, the little master thought I was annoying." She sobbed and said angrily, "I asked you when I dressed up like this, but you didn't think it was too presumptuous."

Wang Xin smiled just right: "Yes, yes, yes, I think that if my sister doesn't dress like this when she doesn't come to the emperor in the future, she will be foolproof."

A Ruo burst into tears and laughed, changed her clothes and went out.

Ruyi took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, so she opened the bottom-lined gold-patterned mahogany box and turned up the tulle piles of embroidery layer by layer. There was something happened in the past year in front of her. It was when she first married, and she had only been three months old, so she naturally had nothing to do and was not satisfied with nothing to do. When she was free to accompany him to study, she smelled the air stained with ink and books around her, and embroidered her longing and happiness stitched in her heart.

Wang Qin wisely supported Lianxin, and took her step by step and turned around, and was surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

Ruyi felt uncomfortable after returning from the Changchun Palace, but she was not sleepy at all. After finally coaxing Yonghuang to fall asleep, she put her cheeks on her back and looked through a volume of Nalan's "Drinking Water Poems" under the candle.

Wang Xin brought a bowl of red dates and tremella soup and said, "The emperor reminded him to get up early and drink bird's nest every day and use tremella before going to bed. Please drink it soon. Otherwise, the emperor would be worried about it."

Ruyi didn't raise her head and said, "Let me keep it first, I'll read the book for a while before drinking it."

Wang Xin moved the candle a little further: "What are you so fascinated by the little master? Be careful that the candle fire will burn your eyebrows."

Ruyi chanted slowly, "Where are flying catkins and flowers? The layers of ice and snow are destroyed. The sparse tree is colder than five times. I love him, the bright moon is good, and it is also related to haggardness. The most common thread shakes, and it turns to make people remember the spring mountains. The dream of slim skirt is intermittent. The west wind has a lot of hatred, and it cannot be dispelled." She was moved with her heart, "It is hard for the young master of Nalan Rongruo to respect the relationship between husband and wife so much. Green clothes mourn the death, infinite grief."

Wang Xin scooped the texas soup and said, "My little master, today is a good day for Lian Xin to get married. Look at this, it's so unsatisfactory."

Ruyi laughed and said, "Yes. If the imperial concubine wants to know, she must think I am cursing the lotus heart."

The two were laughing, and A Ruo lit mugwort and put it in the corner to smoke it, and then changed to the ice in the large cloisonné urn. A Ruo shook the gauze tent for Ruyi, and added fragrant flowers such as jasmine and floral flowers to the silver smoke balls hanging on the tent, and took its natural aura to smoke the embroidered quilt brocade tent. The flower atmosphere was elegant and charming, and it lingered in this quiet space. Suddenly, a sharp shout came from somewhere in the quiet night, as if someone was suffering the most painful torture. The shout broke through the silent night sky and quickly pierced the quiet palace garden in the late night.

Ruyi didn't react for a moment, just thinking that she had heard something wrong. Just as she was about to speak, another scream sounded loudly, with a shrill and long tail sound, and soon became silent as if she was deep and unsightly sea.

The three of them were stunned for a while, and A Ruo said timidly: "The voice seems to be coming from the eunuch's wing room." She hesitated, "It should be no mistake, our Yanxi Palace is closest to there."

Wang Xin quietly lit up the lights and whispered: "This sound is like..."

A Ruo's eyes lit up, with a secret smile: "Lianxin!"

The next morning, Ruyi was awakened by the golden light spots that shone into the bedroom, and for no reason she felt a thin layer of sweat in her body. In early autumn, Ruyi lay in confusion, watching Wangxin and Green Seed come in and roll up the low bamboo curtains, and then brought new ice in, and replaced all the ice that had gradually melted in the thai blue urn in front of the bed. She lay on the bed, and the cool water mat under her body was finely pounding her skin. She was wearing the thin silk fan of ink and water, listening to the tiny water droplets sliding down the huge ice sculptures, a gentle drop of sound. She suddenly thought of the two sad crys that had broken the silence last night, as if it was filled with great helplessness and pain. Ruyi thought about it slightly, and couldn't help but wake up from the shock.

When Ruyi got up to wash, she was still a little confused. While combing her hair, Huang Xin said, "The sky was full of fire and clouds burning yesterday evening. Today, the sun was red and dull. I'm afraid it will rain later. When it rains, it will be cooler."

Ruyi said, "Wait until Changchun Palace to pay tribute and prepare an umbrella."

Wang Xin agreed and went outside to prepare, so she accompanied Ruyi to Changchun Palace with A Ruo.

Although Lianxin was a bride, she served in Changchun Palace early in the morning. Everyone saw her wearing her usual palace maid's clothes, but there were a few unique silk flowers in her hair bun, and she was happy with her, and her expression was as calm as usual. The concubines congratulated her a few words of "congratulations" and each gave her some rewards. Lianxin thanked her one by one, and then followed the queen calmly.

The queen smiled and drank tea. She caught a glimpse of a newly-wearing jade bracelet on her hand, and said, "Looking at your outfit, I think Wang Qin treats you very well."

Lian Xin's face was stunned, with a hint of misery, and soon smiled as usual: "I'll be fine for the Queen, Hongfu."

The queen was very happy: "This is good, and it is not in vain for my intentions." She called Su Xin and took out a pair of silver gilt double-long hairpins to hold it in the brocade box. "The little masters have given you a lot of things. I am your master, so I can't treat you poorly. I will give you these pairs of hairpins. I hope you and Wang Qin will have good fortune and longevity, and will be old until old."
