Lan Qi didn't quite understand the meaning of these words, but she knew one thing. According to the imperial physician and Eunuch Liang, Xuan Ye's illness was cold-damp dysentery, but the most sensational thing that spread to the palace was actually malaria.She and Concubine Rong suppressed the gossip in the palace, and they still passed on miraculously. That's why the Empress Dowager hinted at her, and that's why Concubine Hui said that. Most people think that the war can't be won, and at the same time, they worry that the emperor will be seriously ill. .

"I didn't summon the crown prince. The eunuch who first handed it out was found dead outside the camp when Mr. Liang went to investigate. Now we are investigating what faction he and his family have contacts with. I must find out. " Xuanye said solemnly, as if mentioning these unpleasant things, his brimming face darkened again, every word and every word weighed heavily, he squeezed Lan Qi's hand tightly and said, "If I die of illness, If the prince is killed again, what do you think the world will look like?"

In such a situation, Lan Qi felt almost suffocated just thinking about it, but in fact, the Queen Mother and her had reached a tacit agreement before that, and the Queen Mother was already prepared for how to face the changes in the situation. We must fight to the last breath together, and we must also preserve the inheritance of Xuan Ye's blood.

But at this moment, what Xuan Ye said was completely different. He didn't seem to have any doubt that Prince Yu and Prince Gong would have a different heart, but said: "If anything happens to me, the prince is in the capital, and he can immediately obey the Queen Mother's order." Ascend to the throne, and the elder brother is following me outside, and he will never be able to enter Beijing in time. You said, what can you do if you take the prince to the front line and tie him with me? I am afraid that if there is something wrong with me, the prince will not be able to get out of the whole body Back, what will happen at that time, I dare not imagine."

Lan Qi lowered her eyes, wondering if Xuan Ye was suspecting that the forces behind the elder brother manipulated this incident?She dared not and could not say what the Queen Mother had agreed with her, it was disrespectful, and it would even make people misunderstand that she was ambitious, the two of them were silent for a while, before Xuan Ye asked: "If that's the case, what would you do? Lan Qi, if I abandoned you like that, what would you do?"

Lan Qi couldn't bear such words, she wanted to cry, but she stopped after a few tears, raised her eyes to look at him, and replied solemnly: "The concubine will support your son to ascend the throne, after that, it will be up to you go."

Xuan Ye frowned, raised his hand to rest on her shoulder, the strength of his palm almost crushed her shoulder, and reproached him: "Stupid words, if anything happens to me, you must continue to live well."

Lan Qi showed a comfortable smile in her tears, and said quietly and calmly: "If you can't survive, we have agreed to be together for the rest of your life, and you can't live without anyone for a lifetime. I know that I have responsibilities on my shoulders, and I will put everything on my shoulders." After everything is arranged, I will go to fulfill my whole life. In this life, I have paid for too many people. It seems that I don’t care about the return, but in fact I am fulfilling my own beauty. The selfishness of the concubine is hidden under the selflessness. , At the moment when it comes to an end, selfishness can no longer be hidden. Others don't understand, but the concubine understands it herself, and thought that the emperor also understands."

Xuan Ye's eyes were slightly red, he held her cheeks and said: "When I was seriously ill, I thought, what will I do if I leave you? Finally, I survived until Fuquan won a complete victory, and finally survived until Galdan fled like a bereaved dog. When I came back, I thought that even if I fell down, I would fall by your side, and I was afraid that I would be too lonely outside."

Lan Qi smiled: "The whole world belongs to the emperor, why are you lonely?"

Xuan Ye said tenderly: "But if you are not around, I will not be able to find where home is."

She looked at the person in front of her obsessively. All her life, she had been caught in his eyes, his words, and everything about him. It was like a doomed entanglement in her previous life. In this life, she couldn't escape, she couldn't get rid of it, and she was willing to bear all the ups and downs. .Let's walk like this for the rest of my life, even if the road ahead is bumpy, she will follow in his footsteps, step by step.

"The things waiting for me to deal with in the Qianqing Palace are piled up like a mountain. It's really rare to be sick, and you will have ten days and a half months of leisure. I can't be lazy anymore. If you are lazy, Galdan will regain his prestige and come again. I am not willing to let him escape this time, and I will not only reward Fuquan and Chang Ning for their merits, but I will also investigate the faults of Fuquan and Changning." Xuan Ye's words once again condensed the emperor's air, so majestic that Lan Qi dared not As he approached, Xuan Ye got up and said, "So I have to go and talk to the Queen Mother about this matter first, lest someone in the clan come to instigate and sway, you have a good rest, I have been to Ningshou Palace and will return to Qianqing Palace to deal with the government affairs , you won’t be entering the harem these few days, and you should take advantage of the time to take care of your body, after New Year’s Day, I will take you to live in the garden, this time I won’t take anyone away, let’s be quiet.”

Lan Qi just smiled: "The emperor is busy first, let's talk about things later."

The emperor left the Yonghe Palace after the two of them lived alone for nearly half a month, but because the holy car was recuperating in the Yonghe Palace this time, no one else dared to criticize Concubine De, and nothing outrageous happened. Those who said she had other plans also shut up.

August [-]th was right in front of them, and when they were hastily discussing whether to celebrate, people suddenly remembered that a month had passed since the anniversary of Empress Xiaoyi, but at that time, everyone was staring at the battle, and almost no one remembered, When the queen mother asked about Lan Qi, she smiled calmly: "The concubine and the fourth elder brother paid homage at the Yinghua Hall, and they didn't want to bother everyone, and they didn't make it public. The queen is in the spirit of heaven, and she will wholeheartedly protect the emperor. She won't care."

So everyone can rest assured that the Mid-Autumn Festival is not passing, but they just made some snacks to worship the ancestors. There are still many post-war matters waiting to be dealt with in the court, and no one is in the mood to celebrate the festival, and Prince Gong and Prince Yu are still watching. In Mobei to prevent Galdan from attacking again, it is said that he will not come back for a month or two.

A few days later, the emperor dealt with some urgent matters that had piled up, and the atmosphere in the Qianqing Palace finally eased a little. Taking a break, I came to serve the imperial court in good spirits this day, and was suddenly asked by the emperor: "What's the matter with the child in Mrs. Ping's belly?"

Under the impact of gunpowder and war, Director Liang, who rescued his life from Ulan Butong, had already forgotten about it, and Mr. Pinggui was surprisingly quiet. Thinking about it, when the emperor asked at this moment, his legs softened immediately, and he fell on the ground and said, "This slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die..."

Manager Liang told the emperor about the doubts he had discovered earlier, but he did not expect that the Hesheli family could tamper with in the imperial hospital. It is true that he watched Mr. Ping drink the medicine every day, but it is really unclear what kind of medicine he took. .Calculating, this baby was born in the garden, and Mr. Pinggui hid it until last month after the emperor's personal conquest. He even falsely accused Concubine Tong, because he said that being pushed down by Concubine Tong's wife disturbed the fetal gas. Any mistakes are the responsibility of Tong Pin.

"She's really smart." Xuan Ye sneered, his eyes were sharp, and Director Liang was so frightened that he didn't dare to look directly at him, and said ruthlessly, "I don't want this child."

"Yes." Eunuch Liang replied, but immediately recovered his senses and asked in confusion, "What does the emperor mean?"

"Ask the imperial doctor, how much risk is abortion now?" The emperor's body was filled with a ruthless aura, and his eyes were gloomy with light. Eunuch Liang didn't dare to look any more, and said softly, "Long live, please calm down. Think about it. Your Excellency Ping was fine when you were not at home, but what happened to you when you came back, what should Lord Suoetu think?"

With a loud bang, Xuan Ye angrily slapped the table and knocked over the teacup on the table. Eunuch Liang trembled with fright, and kept trying to persuade the emperor to calm down, but Xuan Ye calmed down after a moment of rage.He is not forbearing now, not to see the faces of the big families, but he has to use them to check and balance each other. Only when they have each other's throats with their hands, can they no longer free their hands to face the emperor and cause him trouble.

Eunuch Liang saw that the emperor's momentum was a little restrained, so he said boldly: "Before I listened to the lecture, the maid in Pinggui's house was arrested by Concubine Tong and had an affair with the guards first, and Concubine De concubine came forward to settle the matter. That maid has already been arrested The Department of Punishment dealt with it, but Mr. Ping didn't make any noise, so he just accepted it. Your Majesty, you see, this is not Ping's temper at all, and Ping's behavior is too abnormal."

"Concubine Tong?" Xuan Ye frowned, feeling impatient in his heart. He felt sorry for his uncle's death. The Qing army lost a strong general. Even though his uncle was old, as long as he was alive, he could cultivate more There are a lot of talents, but now there is a gap, and there are many successors.

But this is only a heartache on the one hand, another thing also troubles Xuanye, the uncle was killed in battle, he died under the shotgun of Junggar, why did it spread to the capital that he was framed by Suo'etu and died ?Words like this have already reached his ears.

"I'm going to drive to Chuxiu Palace tonight. I'm going to see Concubine Tong." Xuan Ye calmed down. He knew that his little cousin was not as smart as the queen, and because she was weak, she was more likely to be manipulated by the family. In the footsteps, there is a lunatic in the palace, that's enough.

Concubine Tong was very surprised when Shengjia came to Chuxiu Palace that night. She knew her weight in the emperor's heart. Whether it was affection or favor, she was always polite. Now that the emperor left Yonghe Palace, it was the first Just came to her room, besides the accident, Concubine Tong, who was guilty of those things before, couldn't help worrying whether the emperor would come to blame her.

Sure enough, Xuan Ye mentioned those things, but without any tone of reproach, he just said persuasively: "You are in the palace with me, so don't take care of family affairs anymore. I don't want to make things too harsh, but the reality is really not very good. , you are not suitable to get involved in any right and wrong, I just want you to be a flower in the greenhouse and live a carefree life."

Concubine Tong looked at the emperor timidly, lowered her head and muttered: "If it's exactly the same, the Concubine De has already taught the concubines, Your Majesty, the concubines know they are wrong."

"Concubine De?" Xuan Ye asked curiously, "What did she say to you?"
