-
The emperor didn't wake Wanxi up, and he didn't even want to make any noise. He just stood quietly by the couch, looking down at her sleeping face.

Although she was 49 years old and looked haggard because of having given birth to so many children, the way she fell asleep still made him reluctant to take his eyes off.

——He likes to see her so peaceful and peaceful.

In this harem, all the women in the deep palace must walk on eggshells every day, right?This is especially true for her who was born under the leadership of the internal management and has a Han surname.

From the first day they entered the palace, they fell into the schemes of those self-righteous masters, and they all wanted to use her as a pawn, but the purpose was to use her to win his attention for themselves!

Over the years, her fate finally does not have to be in the hands of others, and she does not have to live under the calculations of others; but because her status is getting higher and higher day by day, his dependence on her is getting deeper and deeper day by day, After all, she shouldered the burden of leading the harem again.

The harem she once deeply disliked, the place where she would rather pretend to be a fool and leave, but after all, she had to work hard to lead, maneuver, and balance.

Only when the harem is stable can the previous court be safe, and he, the emperor, can concentrate on handling the government and state affairs without any worries.

No matter how many setbacks he has experienced in these years, the first battle of Jinchuan, or the second battle of Jinchuan; All of her achievements were all experienced and completed together with him when she was in charge of the harem.

From the age of 30 to 60, as a man, she accompanied him through the best years of his life.

But also because of this, she was too tired.She silently carried everything in the harem and never said anything in front of him. He tried his best to pay attention to her and protect her carefully, but he couldn't do everything in the end...

Now she is sick.This illness came from her age, but why didn't it come from her exhaustion over the years?

Seeing her falling asleep like this clearly made him drowsy, but he saw the tranquility and peace on her face that he hadn't seen for a long time...

Perhaps, from this point of view, if she can keep sleeping like this, it might be the best for her, isn't it?

He quietly clenched his fists—in fact, if he could choose, he would also like to just fall asleep like this.

No need to worry about it every day, no need to sleep until the sun is up, no need to observe the ministers around you all the time, no need to carry this huge but heavy country on your own shoulders!
But he knew that he couldn't.

Because at this time, the battle of Jinchuan has not yet been completely settled; although Xiao Shiwu's child is married, he has not yet been beaten in government affairs.

In this world, there are still too many things waiting for him to act arbitrarily, and there is no room for him to slack off for a day.

He just wants to sleep, but at this moment, he doesn't have the qualifications...

"Grandpa?"

Wanxi woke up dimly, saw the emperor standing alone in the shadows, and hurriedly called softly.

Although the Nuan Pavilion was not big, it was so empty. Seeing him standing alone made her eyes hurt.

"Since the master is here, why didn't you wake me up?" Wanxi couldn't sit up, so she didn't force herself, she just stretched out her hand.

The emperor hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed her hand, and sat down on Kang Yaner with a smile on her face.

"Master just came in, saw you asleep, and was thinking about how to play tricks on you."

At this time, the emperor lost the seriousness of the sixty-year-old emperor, and was still the same as when he was young and mischievous.

"Should I find the root of the hair, or simply pull out one of my beards and poke your nose?"

Wanxi smiled slowly, "Master... the dragon's beard cannot be pulled out."

The emperor held back his sighs and still smiled, "I'm afraid of pain too~~ How can a beard be like a carrot, you can pull it out if you want? It's not an ordinary pain when it comes out of the skin."

The emperor looked as if he was about to pluck his beard in front of him, he was holding his chin, his face twisted.

Wanxi originally felt that her eyelids were heavy, and it would take a lot of force to open them, but now that the emperor told her to open them, she felt that it was easy to open her eyelids, and the real effort was plucking her beard.

Wanxi couldn't help laughing softly, "Master, that's a dragon's beard, how can a radish compare to it~"

Seeing her laughing again, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, then put down his hand, and took her hand back, "Forget it, anyway, you're awake, so I just won't pull it out."

Wanxi opened her eyes wide and stared at the emperor, "My lord...why do you only talk about beards but forget your braids?"

Men in the Qing Dynasty wore braids, and the most important thing was that the braids should be smooth and smooth, and the ends of the braids should be smooth and neat.

Now that the emperor is getting old, his hair can't be as good as it was when he was young, and sometimes burrs are unavoidable when braiding.The eunuchs who combed their hair had to be careful to dip their sips in some hair oil and squeeze the burrs back into their braids.

But today, the emperor's braid is still hairy.

The emperor turned around quickly, trying to block it.

Time is not forgiving, he has reached this age, the grief in his heart must be reflected in his body.As the Son of Heaven, and it was the first lunar month, he didn't dare to show too much grief on his face, but his hair still gave away his feelings.

Even if he didn't turn gray overnight, besides, at this age, his hair is already gray; but the braid is hairy, but nothing can stop it.

It wasn't just him who was haggard because of heartache, but his hair first.

It is said that "love silk is lingering", "hair couple", hair is always a sign of love for husband and wife.

When the heart is withered, the hair will also wither first.

But he said with a smile on his mouth, "Oh, it's all because of wearing the end cap. The braid and the black fox's hair needles rubbed against each other, and then the braid was rubbed. It's okay, it's okay, I will call the eunuch to come in later." Just give me another sip."

Wanxi nodded with a smile, never willing to expose the emperor's intentions.But she stretched out her hand and grabbed his cuff, raised her eyes and locked him with pleading eyes, "Grandpa...I want to braid my hair for you."
.
The emperor trembled, his heart trembled into a ball.

He knew that Jiu'er was not as proficient in medical skills as he was, but Jiu'er's heart had always been exquisite.

At this time her condition has reached such a point, even if she does not use medical skills, she may have a premonition in her heart.

But he didn't want to have such a premonition, let alone confirm such a premonition!
He laughed, pressed down Wanxi's hand, put it back on the quilt, and covered it with his palm.

"I don't need you! I'll pass on to the eunuch who combs my hair later. You just lie down. Braiding hair seems to be an easy task, but it is always exhausting. Such a trivial matter, I will leave it to my servants! "

Wanxi smiled lightly, and then raised her hand to grab the emperor's cuff, "Do you want to braid my father's hair... I know that my hands are clumsy, I am not good at embroidery, and I often twist my braids." , but people like to play with Grandpa's hair."

After talking for a while, Wanxi felt exhausted, her eyes darkened, and she hurriedly closed her eyes.

"As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw the first time I met you back then. My big braid was smooth and smooth, and there was only a white jade gourd pendant on the end of the braid. With the movement of my figure, that The gourd pendant swayed and swayed."

"That's why, Master's braids have taken an important place in my heart since then. But I know that I am clumsy, and when I first entered the palace, I was not qualified to serve Grandpa to comb his hair, so I always wanted to help Grandpa braid. Once braided, but never found the right time."

"It just so happens that my son's braids are hairy today, and he asked me to see it. Isn't it just that God sympathized with me and gave me a chance to go? Grandpa..." Wanxi grabbed the emperor's cuff and shook it weakly , but tried to smile, just like the previous coquettish appearance, "Even God gave me a chance, so the Lord will let me do it this time anyway, and it will be my wish fulfilled all these years, okay?"

The emperor felt a dull pain in his heart, and he didn't dare to speak, he was afraid that he would choke up with sobs.

He just widened his eyes and smiled at Wanxi, but he couldn't say no.

Even though Wanxi was weak, she still raised her fist and cheered vigorously, "If you don't object, it's a favor!"

Seeing her cheering, the last bit of worry in the emperor's heart due to persistence was completely disintegrated.He chuckled lightly, stretched out his hand to hold Wanxi's fist, and said softly, "I'm convinced, it's up to you."

He obediently sat down on the edge of the kang, with his back to Wanxi, and tried his best to get closer to Wanxi's hand, so as to reduce the effort required for Wanxi to raise her hands and wrists.

Wanxi held back her cough and the darkness in front of her eyes, tried her best to smile and leaned against the soft pillow, stretched out her hand to untangle the braids of the emperor's hair...
.
Wanxi weaves this braid very slowly.

She is not like her. When she was a child, she braided her hair very quickly. She didn't even need to look in the mirror. She bent her hair left and right with her fingers, and the braids came naturally.

But today, her hands have no strength, and she often makes a twist, because she has to divide her strength into three parts, and she has to take a few breaths in the middle.

But on the other hand, she also didn't want to finish braiding early.

She enjoys this kind of time, enjoys being with the emperor for such a long time that seems to have no end, and enjoys the intimacy when her fingertips run through his hair.

His hair was also gray, eunuchs usually combed their hair carefully, even if they didn't dare to pull out the white hair, they would definitely tuck the white hair into the braid with a squeegee, so that the emperor would not see it.

Compared with the hair combing eunuch, her craftsmanship is really much worse.She couldn't cover up the white hair so well, she could only use her fingertips to caress the emperor's white hair with all her heart...

"Gray heads are not allowed in the world", but in this world, no matter who it is, it is the true dragon emperor, and they will eventually have bald heads.

But isn't there such a thing as "grow old together"?Then white hair will no longer be scary, but it will be a long and delicate happiness.

Thinking of her for more than 30 years, although she has not been able to stay with the emperor for a longer time, she has already achieved "growth together".

Think about Empress Xiaoxian, Concubine Huixian, Concubine Shujia, Concubine Chunhui... They all went there early, when they were still full of black hair; and although she has come to this day , watching myself run out of oil and die, but in the end, I can grow old with the emperor with white hair.

That's enough, really.What's not to like?
She and the emperor have been together for so many years, the two spent the best years of each other's life together, and gave birth to so many good children...

In her life, what is there to be dissatisfied with?
If there are regrets, of course there are.For example, Xiaoluer, Pomegranate, and the premature death of the child who was not born in the 24th year of Qianlong; and the early death of Xiaoqi, and the failure to wait for Xiaoqi and Lawang to give birth to a son and a half...

But life is like this, unsatisfactory things are often eight or nine.Compared with her own regrets in her own life, the regrets are definitely not as many as eight or nine, just count as one or two.

That being the case, even if she travels far away, she can rest in peace with a smile on her face.

With such relief and satisfaction, Wanxi finally braided the emperor's braid with a twist and a twist.At the end of the end of the braid, Wanxi thought about it, and raised her hand to remove a plain jade ear clipper from her ear.

The emperor gave her the white jade gourd pendant, and she gave the white jade gourd pendant to Xiaoqi. The past keepsakes have been passed down in an orderly manner, so there is no need to recall them.

Banner women have one ear and three pliers, which has a special meaning.It is said that the ears are connected with the three souls and seven souls, and one ear with three pincers also means guarding the soul.Then she took off her ear clippers and tied them to the end of the emperor's braid, that is, tied a strand of her own soul to the emperor's hair.

Formed as husband and wife, there is no doubt about love and affection.Life should come back, death should be longing...

After tying up the braid, she lightly patted the emperor on the shoulder, "Master, it's finished. Don't worry, I promise I won't twist it this time..."

If the braids are twisted too hard, they will be twisted and crooked, and there is no way for them to fall down smoothly.Men with braids, especially the emperor, are more afraid of that embarrassing appearance.

The emperor didn't turn around to look at the braids in a hurry, but stretched out his hand backwards and took Wanxi's hand.

He didn't dare to look back because he had already burst into tears.

He tried his best to calmly say, "Your mother's family has already been carried into Manchuria under the Bordered Yellow Banner, and I asked Lao Liu to do it himself. You know that he has always been clean and tidy. Now everything is done, and we only need to compile your mother's family into a Shiguanzuoling, you can call your elder brother to be the commander.”

The emperor's eyes blurred, thinking of Yong Rong kneeling down in front of him with tears in his eyes that day, "My son learned to manage the affairs of the Household Department. Back then, he was taught by the imperial concubine Emiang. Today, as a minister in charge of the Household Department, my son can personally serve as the emperor's son." The noble concubine Erniang's handling of this matter is also the son's affection for the imperial concubine Erniang."

At that time, when Chunhui died and Yongrong was born, it seemed that there was darkness in front of the child, but she lit a bright lamp in front of the child.

Wanxi was also slightly taken aback.

The emperor raised the flag for her mother's house, and it started a long time ago, from the inner management collar with the yellow flag in the House of Internal Affairs, to the collar with the yellow flag in the House of Internal Affairs, and then to the collar with the yellow flag in the House of Internal Affairs... But unexpectedly, the emperor The last step is to directly raise her to the level of a queen.

Wanxi coughed a little under excitement, and said softly, "Master...how did this happen?"

The emperor gritted his teeth lightly, turned around abruptly, and held Wanxi tightly, "During the winter solstice festival last year, the Lord had officially appointed Yuanzi as the crown prince, and I will live to heaven! You are the birth mother of the crown prince. Follow this rule to give your mother the crown prince." It is natural and reasonable for everyone to raise the flag, and no one can make irresponsible remarks—including Huang Erniang!"
