I'm pregnant with my baby

Entering the Hall of Fanghua, the strong smell of medicine came to the nostrils.Xiao Qi waved away all the eunuchs and maids inside and outside the hall, and walked in.

The queen mother was lying on the bed, her face was pale, and she was so angry that she could only move one pair of eyes.Seeing Xiao Qi coming in, there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Xiao Qi walked to the bed and stopped, looking down at the person on the bed.The memory of childhood has been blurred, scattered, and can't be pieced together.But he still remembers the queen mother's control over him.

That is a kind of absolute control.It's like two animals with huge difference in size and strength, no matter how hard the weaker one struggles, it still can't break free from the other's restraint.

Xiao Qi spent nine years planning step by step, and finally got rid of it completely.Today, he has become the bigger animal.

"Why doesn't the mother live a few more days, at least the first month is out." When he said this, Xiao Qi's expression and eyes were always cold, without any sadness.

The queen mother twitched the corners of her mouth, weakly: "Don't you just look forward to this day. The sooner Aijia dies, the sooner you will be happy."

"That's true." Xiao Qi stopped pretending, "Don't worry, I will definitely hold a beautiful funeral for you, so as to reflect my benevolence and filial piety."

"The emperor is used to acting." The queen mother knew that she was about to die, and before she died, she wanted to give Xiao Qi a heavy hammer, so that he would not live in peace in this life. Killed by someone. How does it feel to be filial and kill your mother and enemy for so many years?"

Apart from hatred, there was no other emotion on Xiao Qi's face.The shock, remorse, and collapse that the Queen Mother wanted to see... none of them.

"From the first day you took me out of Zuihuaxuan, I knew you were the murderer who killed my mother."

The "weight" that I had held for many years disappeared in an instant, and the Queen Mother's eyes widened slightly: "Impossible! Since you know..."

Xiao Qi interrupted: "Because I was still young at that time, if I want to survive, I must depend on others. Your mother's family is strong, and you have no children. It is the best choice. Only you can help me sit on the throne."

But how could Xiao Xiao Qi understand such a profound truth. At that time, he wanted to avenge his mother, and when he saw his mother-killing enemy, he wanted to rush up and bite her throat.

This truth was taught to him by one person.

The man brought him to his mother's spiritual tablet and asked him to kneel and figure out how to really avenge his mother.

This person is Xiao Qi's master Shao Chen. After ascending the throne, Xiao Qi named him a national teacher.A year ago, the master saw that his throne was basically stable, so he wandered around the world.

"You were only six years old at that time..." Now, the unbelievable person became the queen mother.

The queen mother remembered the first meeting.

Six-year-old Xiao Qi was wearing rough clothes, with a happy smile on his face, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to her, and looked grateful: "Mother Xie took me out of Zuihuaxuan! My son must be obedient!"

She looked at the child coldly, thinking how stupid she was.

After more than ten years, it turned out that she was the one who was stupid.

"Yes." Xiao Qi also withdrew from the memories, "Since I was six years old, I wanted you to die. But how easy it is to die, I figured it out later, living in pain is more relieved."

"Why don't I tell you the truth, since four years ago, I have prepared all the things you imported. Guess what the queen mother is?"

As soon as the words were finished, the Empress Dowager's personal maid, Aunt Sun, came in with the medicine and did not salute Xiao Qi: "It's time for the Empress Dowager to drink the medicine."

On the surface, it saves lives, but it actually kills them.

"Don't drink at home!!" The empress dowager's withered face was full of horror.

She was tricked for four full years! !

"The Queen Mother should drink it." Aunt Sun stirred the medicine up and down, "Drink it, so you can go on the road with peace of mind."

Looking at the person who has served her for more than ten years in front of her, the queen mother finally realized: "You and the emperor are in the same group! No, you used to be from Zuihuaxuan!"

"The Queen Mother has a good memory." Aunt Sun raised her head, with hatred and wetness in her eyes, "I am Miss's dowry maid, and I grew up with her since childhood. Back then, Miss's mother's family was in decline, and Miss knew she couldn't save it, so she let me pretend I rely on you. It is to protect the emperor. Presumably the queen mother still remembers that it was my idea to adopt the emperor to her knees."

Originally, the queen mother wanted to kill Xiao Qi together.

She had a wound on her right arm, which was so severe that it was the root cause of the disease.I can't lift heavy things, and every time it rains and cloudy, I feel a biting pain.This is a play she deliberately acted in order to win the trust of the Queen Mother.Since then, she has become the Queen Mother's personal maid.

"My young lady was still so young, and she was killed by you. For so many years, every time I see you tossing and turning on the sick bed but still can't die, I feel happy in my heart!"

The Empress Dowager was at the end of her strength, and was stimulated again and again, so she didn't come up in one breath, so she passed.His eyes were staring straight, and he could not rest in peace.

Looking at the hands that were hanging down feebly, Xiao Qi closed his eyes, turned around and walked out.

Outside the hall, Aunt Sun knelt on the ground, her eyes were full of joy and indifference that she was about to die: "The servant is going to find the young lady. The servant wanted to follow the young lady the day she died. Now that the emperor is so outstanding, go see the young lady, the servant." There can also be an explanation."

The hands in the sleeves were clenched tightly, and the throat slid a few times, Xiao Qi said calmly: "Go well. See aunt."

Without Aunt Sun's secret help many times, many things would not have been possible.In addition, to Xiao Qi, Aunt Sun is a person close to his mother, and also counted as a close person to him.

all left.

Zuihuaxuan, Xiao Qi has never been here since he left at the age of six.He didn't dare, he was afraid of touching the scene, and couldn't hold back his hatred, so he threatened to startle the snake.

It has not been cleaned for many years, and the courtyard is dilapidated.Xiao Qi followed his childhood memory and successfully found the swing under the tree, and sat on it gently regardless of the dust and fallen leaves on it.

When he was a child, his mother often pushed him on the swing, which was very high.In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, and the iron chains that tie the swings have rusted, and they "creak" when they are slightly moved.

Xiao Qi didn't want to swing anymore, just sat quietly, letting himself sink into the cold night.

He looked up at the sky above his head, as if complaining, with an aggrieved tone: "Mother, no one wants to stay by my side."

You're gone, Aunt Sun is gone, and he doesn't want to stay either.

wrong.

He didn't belong here.

Xiao Qi thought of the pure white figure like snow, leaning his head on the iron chain, and lightly closed his eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Qi suddenly opened his eyes at the sudden sound of footsteps, and looked at the door warily.

If you dare to take a step forward, your head will fall to the ground.

Su Yanfeng stood outside the door, holding a lantern in one hand and grabbing the door frame with the other, peering inside: "Your Majesty found something interesting, do you want to see it?"

Xiao Qi was stunned: "How do you know I'm here?"

"I don't know." Su Yanfeng said, "In order to find the emperor, I almost turned the palace over."

The latter statement is true.Because he didn't know the way, it took him a long time to find it.

Xiao Qi still sat on the swing: "You come in."

Su Yanfeng was more respectful than obedient, picked up the sky lantern hidden behind the door, and walked in.

Seeing the thing in his hand, Xiao Qi dismissed it: "It's just a sky lantern, I think it's something rare."

Su Yanfeng put the lantern on the ground and began to tinker with the sky lantern: "It is said that sky lanterns can convey wishes to God. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and since there are many people making wishes, let's join in the fun."

Protrude the light body and secure the candle in the center of the bottom.

"I don't believe this." Xiao Qi continued to sit, not planning to help.

"The minister spared most of the palace with the sky lantern, and his hands were frozen. It's too sad for the emperor to say that." Su Yanfeng flattened his mouth and said very aggrieved.Eyes full of accusations.

After waiting for a while, Xiao Qi stood up, walked over with small awkward steps, and muttered, "Trouble."

Su Yan was amused: "The emperor helped the ministers to support him, and the ministers lit the lamps. Don't let go, let loose."

Xiao Qi grabbed the edge of the sky lantern with both hands, and Su Yanfeng lit the candle tied at the bottom with a torch.The sky lantern inflated little by little, and when it was all inflated, Su Yanfeng shouted: "Let it go!"

Xiao Qi let go in response.

The sky lantern slowly lifted into the sky, and the candlelight illuminated it very brightly.Against the vast sky, it always looks very small.

Su Yanfeng said generously: "There is only one sky lantern, please give it to the emperor."

"I won't allow it."

Su Yanfeng "tsk": "It's rare that I'm so generous, hurry up, it won't work after flying far away. Put your hands together and close your eyes."

Xiao Qi clasped his palms together and stood there dryly for a long time: "What?"

Su Yanfeng: "..."

What's the matter with being a little stupid.

"If you really don't want anything, you can unify the four countries, and the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe."

Xiao Qi looked at the person in front of him, suppressed the rising desire in his heart, and said lightly: "Listen to you."

After making a wish, the sky lantern has flown away with the wind.Getting smaller and further away.

Xiao Qi withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyes to stare at the lantern at his feet.Almost the same structure, just can't fly.Compared with the illusory ones, he prefers the ones that can be held in his hands.

Just like he wouldn't wish Su Yanfeng to stay in the palace forever.No matter how powerful God is, it is impossible to manipulate people's hearts.The decision is always in the hands of the other party.

Su Yanfeng saw that he kept silent, just staring at the lantern in a daze: "It's getting late, let's go back."

"This is where I stayed when I was young." Xiao Qi said suddenly.

Su Yanfeng nodded, and said as if chatting: "It seems that I haven't lived for a long time."

"Six years old. I left here when I was six years old." Xiao Qi stepped on the dead leaves on the ground, "It was the queen mother who took me out. She killed my mother and took control of the government. I endured it for more than ten years, and finally reported to my mother." revenge."

There was surprise in Su Yanfeng's eyes, he didn't expect Xiao Qi to say this to himself: "The emperor is very powerful, if I am a minister, I probably can't help it. I wish I could kill her on the spot."

It's too difficult to stay dormant by the side of the mother-killing enemy for more than ten years and not show off.

"Also, the officials in the southern counties said that the weather is getting warmer, the snow has melted, and the disaster has basically stopped. It won't be long before the people can go into production." Xiao Qi tonight is like a nagging child, always saying no finished words.

Su Yanfeng listened carefully.He knew that this man had a lot of things in his heart.But he can only say so much.

With someone to accompany you, you will never be too lonely.
