wedding dress

Chapter 217
As soon as the sixth princess saw Qin Lie, she said, "Oh, they are newlyweds after all. It's rare to see them for a day or two, so they chased them here."

Qin Lie was not at all embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Actually, I came in a hurry, otherwise Luo Wei would have come with me."

The sixth princess blushed a little, and she gave a piss, but she was too embarrassed to continue joking.

"It's a bad luck for you to come here. It used to be empty everywhere, but now it's full." The sixth princess sat down and said, "Even the Fengyingxiu at the far end is occupied."

"how do you know?"

"I wanted to go there to soak in Lengshiquan, but there was a Meicai living there. There was also a beautiful Liu living in the room behind her."

Of course, these people came with the emperor, not only the beauties in the harem, but also court ladies, eunuchs, and guards—these people filled Kang Quan's palace to the brim, where is there a quiet place.

"Bring the fourth sister here, we are just playing cards." The sixth princess looked at Qin Lie with a malicious smile: "We all know that you have money, so come back and take out more money for us to make makeup."

"The fourth sister is also a rich man, why are you staring at us?"

The sixth princess rolled her eyes: "Hey, it's covered. Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be merciful, and I won't win all your purses."

I don't know who is bright yet.On the boat going to Suizhou, Xiaodong had seen Qin Lie's ability to kill the world - as the saying goes, no evil is not a business, Xiaodong tried ten rounds in a row and failed to win once, she angrily accused Qin Lie of stealing cards, Qin Lie Smiling, he stretched out his hand and untied his belt: "Come here, come and search..."

In the end, whether Xiaodong searched for the cards he stole—well, it’s not enough for outsiders to tell.

The sixth princess sent someone to invite the fourth princess. The fourth princess looked sleepy, even though she was covered with makeup, she still looked haggard.

Xiaodong asked with concern: "Is Fourth Sister feeling unwell?"

"It's okay, I just didn't sleep well last night." The fourth princess cheered up: "This fog won't clear for a while, let's play cards and let my brother-in-law go out and relax."

"Hey, I'm not an outsider. I'm about to win him. How can I let him go?"

The fourth princess glanced at her, but said nothing.The sixth princess pulled her to sit down: "Come, come, I brought a pair of Chengzhu and a pair of jade, which one should I use?"

The fourth princess said with some helplessness: "Chengzhu's one, the jade one is cold and hard, it takes a lot of effort to hold it."

"What does that matter, you can ask the girl to take it for you."

The four of them sat down, Xiaodong was a little worried that Qin Lie would show off his superb ability of stealing and counting cards again, so he winked.In fact, she didn't have to worry at all, Qin Lie won her, it was the joy of the boudoir.Now with the fourth princess and the sixth princess, it is necessary to be as disciplined as possible. After a few rounds, she loses a little, wins once, and Xiaodong loses twice. The sixth and fourth princesses also have their own wins and losses.

The fourth princess frowned slightly all the time, a little absent-minded, Xiaodong felt that she was not thinking about it at all, and sure enough, the fourth princess made a wrong card again.Xiaodong is looking at her, and the fourth princess seems to have secretly looked at Xiaodong several times.

The sixth princess was relaxed and in a good mood after winning: "The fourth sister has given up."

The fourth sister pushed the cards: "I won't play anymore."

"Huh?" The sixth princess was displeased: "What are you doing? You only lost a little, but it's not too much. Once you leave, the three of us can't make it together."

The fourth princess shook her head and supported her forehead: "I have a terrible headache."

Her face is so ugly, it's not like a lie.

"Ah? You didn't say it earlier." The sixth princess hurriedly said, "Call the imperial doctor to see if you caught a cold at night."

"It's okay, you don't need to find a doctor, I'll just lie down for a while and I'll be fine."

Xiaodong asked people to make the bed, helped the fourth princess to lie down, and at the same time sent someone to invite the imperial physician.

However, Xiaodong thinks that the fourth princess is about to touch—is it a heart disease?
People who grew up in the palace can hardly learn the ability to endure illness by themselves.Many times you can't be sick, and you can't show your sickness on your face.

Hongjing came in with hot tea, Xiaodong asked softly, "Fourth sister, would you like some water?"

The fourth princess shook her head.

She was facing the bed, her shoulders trembling slightly, and when she turned her head again, there were no tears on her face, only her eye sockets and the tip of her nose were slightly red.

Sometimes being sad and having a cold can look very similar.But when you have a cold, you don't have to hide and cry.

Xiaodong brought her tea again, and the fourth princess took it and put it aside, holding Xiaodong's hand.

"Fourth sister? Why are you doing this?"

The fourth princess shook her head: "It's nothing... just... I remembered something from the past. When my mother... passed away, it was also this month, and there was heavy fog that day."

Xiaodong first thought of the queen, and then realized that the fourth princess was talking about her biological mother who had passed away long ago.

No one in the palace mentioned her, not even the fourth princess.Xiaodong didn't know anything about the biological mother of the fourth princess, she just heard it mentioned in a daze, she was not very favored, and her health was not good.The fourth princess was raised under the queen's lap, and after a long time, Xiaodong couldn't remember that she still had a biological mother.

But, just because of this, how could the fourth princess be so sad?
Life in the harem can sharpen the softest heart to be as hard and thick as a rock. The fourth princess is not a child of four or five years old, who will hide and cry for the early death of her biological mother.

Even Xiaodong would not do this kind of thing.

"I don't know why, but I suddenly feel uncomfortable..." The fourth princess seemed to be pouring out the water that had accumulated for too long, and she couldn't stop her words: "I remember that after my mother left, someone brought me I went to see the queen. The person next to me taught me to kneel down and call the queen mother... The queen was wearing red satin clothes with golden peonies embroidered on the skirt. I knelt on the ground for a long time before I heard her say Let me get up. For a long time afterwards, as long as I think of that day and the queen, I only remember the golden thread peony on the red dress, which is particularly dazzling."

"Later, I listened to her everything. Sometimes the queen treated me coldly, even a little disgusted. I know she thought of her daughter who died in infancy... But there were also times of kindness. Later... I grew up, day by day Come on, call her mother, and there is some genuine affection for each other—"

Yes, even if you have a cat, you need to have feelings over time.

"The queen pointed out the marriage for me, which is considered good to me. Sometimes, when I call the queen mother, I sincerely regard her as my mother. But when she was seriously ill, sometimes I was very tired and endured a lot. I feel uncomfortable, but I have to comfort and serve her with gentle words, and I will think of the past. I think of kneeling on the ground, looking at the red skirt embroidered with peonies in gold thread, and thinking of my biological mother Yang Meiren's clothes when she died. Old silk clothes. Thinking of the years in the Queen's Palace, carefully making up for the smiles with the big palace maids, endured when hungry, dared not drink more water when thirsty, turned off the charcoal basin at night, and fell asleep shivering with cold No. Later, when I grew up, I moved to Yilan Palace, and the queen ordered someone to make new clothes for me... I remember that six sets of new clothes were made that time. But I don’t know why, maybe the servants were negligent, The skirts are all made too big and don't fit well..."

"In the two days before the queen left, she was completely confused and woke up from time to time. She also talked a lot when she woke up. She felt that she had endured it for too long, until she died. I was listening and thinking , who is not patient? Me too..." the fourth princess babbled, her face turning red.Xiaodong previously thought that she was in high spirits, but he realized that her palms were getting hotter and hotter.

The fourth princess is really sick.

She has already talked about the fourth son-in-law from the queen: "He still keeps it from me. I don't know why. I just think that Yi'er has given birth to a few children, and Yi'er is already sensible, so I don't want to fight with him anymore. I just gave birth to a daughter a few days ago, he ran out for a few days in a row, and didn't even come back one night, and thought it was better to hide it from me... I pretended to be confused..."

Qin Lie gestured to Xiaodong by the door, and the imperial physician came in after him.

The fourth princess's eyes were blank, she was half awake, Xiaodong helped her to lie down, and asked the imperial physician to come and check her pulse.

Xiaodong stood by, and Qin Lie put his hand lightly on her shoulder: "Don't worry."

"Ah."

The imperial doctor checked the pulse, said there was nothing serious, and prescribed a prescription.Xiaodong ordered someone to go with him to prepare the medicine and come back to fry it.The Sixth Princess specially asked Fang Zi to look at it, Xiaodong asked her what kind of tricks she saw, the Sixth Princess only said: "It's really my fault, she is obviously not feeling well, but she is forced to accompany her."

"The imperial doctor also said that there is nothing serious. It's getting late. Sixth sister, you should go back and rest."

"Well, I sent someone to talk to the people in Fuquan Pavilion, and told them not to mess up. Fourth sister is sick with you, and it is not appropriate to move now."

The fourth princess took the medicine and fell asleep, sweating all over, and her obscene clothes were all wet, Xiaodong asked someone to change her underwear and bedding for her.After such a toss, the fourth princess opened her eyes.

"Fourth sister, what do you think?"

The fourth princess looked a little confused, as if she didn't understand where she was and what happened.

"The imperial doctor said that the fourth sister is just suffering from an external cold, and she will recover after a few days of rest. There is no serious problem."

The fourth princess slowly came to her senses, and said in a low voice, "I'm bothering little sister Xiaodong..."

"Don't be polite to me. Do you want some water, sister?"

The fourth princess drank the water and lay down again.

"Sixth sister is very sorry, and said that she shouldn't force you to play cards..."

The fourth princess shook her head slightly: "Don't blame her. She just has that temper. I didn't like her before, but now I think about her benefits, and I don't have to think too much about being with her, and I don't tire my heart."

Yes, Xiaodong felt the same way.

The wind was a bit chilly at night, Xiaodong pulled up her shawl, and suddenly heard the fourth princess ask her: "Sister Xiaodong, do you still remember what happened when you were young?"

"Well?"

The fourth princess said softly: "You...before you came to the capital, do you still remember what happened to your mother and when you were a child?"
