The princess of time travel is not stupid

Chapter 55

On the night of the Lantern Festival, every household was extremely festive, but the gates of Prince Yi's Mansion were closed. Since the prince entered the palace for a banquet, and was assassinated and stayed in the palace to recuperate, basically no one would enter or leave the entire mansion except for those who bought vegetables.Zhao mama took people very seriously, just because she was afraid that someone would stir up trouble while the master was away.

He didn't want to do whatever he wanted, and after half a month of An's birthday, on the night of the Lantern Festival, someone knocked on the door, begging the prince to save him.When the concierge found Mrs. Zhao, he said that the people outside were begging like dead mothers, begging the prince for help, and it was not easy to drive people away during this big festival, so he hurried to report.

Zhao Momo hurriedly followed the man to the gatehouse to have a look, who knew that the man was still kneeling outside, "Our prince is not in the mansion, you are..."

When the visitor saw Zhao Nanny coming out, she seemed to be able to make decisions. He took two or three steps on his knees and hugged Zhao Nanny's leg, "I beg you, my lord, to help me, it's two lives."

Zhao Nanny hesitated for a while, mainly because the seeker was too aggressive, his forehead was scratched, and there was nothing he could do, "Our prince is really not here."

"Then... when will you come back? Before leaving, the prince specifically asked that if something happens, come to Prince Yi's mansion for help. This... what should I do?" She was so flustered that she didn't know what to do.

Prince?In Shangjing, although there are many princes, besides Xia Mi's generation, there are of course older generations, but those who can seek Xia Mi's side can't help but think of Prince Chun Xia Wu first.Mother Zhao doesn't know much about that, but if someone asks for her today, it's fine if there is nothing wrong in the future, but if there is something wrong... Will this be counted on my prince's head?

Zhao Mama asked about the situation, and it turned out that the pregnant Princess Chun had an accident and was lying down waiting for help. "You... Could it be that you didn't invite your mother-in-law? Doctors, hurry up and invite them, Yaoning, go and get the prince's sign and see if you can enter the palace to give a message or something. If not, tomorrow morning at the latest, You must tell the prince."

"Please, please, but this child is stuck..." She was also anxious. Before leaving, the prince said that if something happened, they would lose their heads. She could not wait to be in front of the Bodhisattva for such a thing every day Please don't happen.

Mother Zhao took Yaosan and a few servants to check the situation first, and then went out after all orders were given.This matter is really difficult to deal with. I only hope that the princess will be happy and give birth to the child safely.When walking halfway, Mother Zhao suddenly felt that something was wrong. It was only two months before Prince Chun went out...

And according to that person, the princess had known about her pregnancy for a long time, so why didn't she report it to the emperor?Now, all you know is that there is news from the third princess...

Zhao Mama couldn't help but think a little more, and asked her subordinates to be more energetic, winked at each other, and nodded.

The 23rd year of Xuanwu's Lantern Festival was destined to be uneventful.

Xia Mi, who went back in the middle of the night, was blocked by the Empress, and walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation nervously. Seeing the Empress sleeping on a recliner, she was covered with a blanket, and several stoves were lit beside her.Seeing Xia Mi coming in, Qing Wu made a booing gesture to her, Xia Mi nodded knowingly, walked to the side and stayed there.

It's already midnight, why are you looking for her?She fell asleep, could it be that she was not allowed to sleep in order to torture her?

It should be, isn't it so perverted?

When Xia Mi was thinking in a mess, the Empress frowned and turned slightly, "What time is it?"

"Just passed the third watch." Qing Wu said.

The empress pinched the bridge of her nose, "Is the second child here?"

"coming."

The empress turned her head, saw Xia Mi standing there, hummed, and lay down again, got up after a while, Qing Wu twisted the towel and handed it up, the empress wiped it casually, "Second brother, come here. "

Xia Mi walked over obediently.

The empress handed the towel to Qing Wu beside her, looked at her, rinsed with tea, spit it out, and asked, "Do you know why I came here so late?"

"I don't know." Xia Mi answered honestly.

In the entire hall, only the Empress, Qing Wu, Xia Mi, and the unknown guards were left in the dark, and only the coals in the stove remained silent, occasionally crackling and exploding.

The Empress put the tea aside, like a loving mother, and asked her, "Have you had fun tonight?"

Xia Mi wasn't sure what she was thinking, but she knew it would be better to answer truthfully, so she really answered the sentence: Is it the king's land that the world is so big.Xia Mi nodded, "Yeah, I'm very happy." Thinking about it, the showdown with Baiming at night can be regarded as progress, and we can talk about it in the future. Anyway, at night, she left everything behind and went crazy a handful.

However, she has no regrets.

Once again, she would still choose this way, she likes white tea.

Thinking of Bai Ming, Xia Mi worried that she would worry about herself?The look of smiling and calm brows for a while, all fell into the eyes of the empress. Although Xia Mi has controlled it very well, sometimes, you can't hide the look in someone's eyes when you want to be alone.

The empress looked at her for a while, and suddenly she seemed to see her back then. Now, what she does is different from those people back then.After sighing twice, the empress finally spoke, "Second brother, it's time to get married."

Xia Mi froze in place.

It's not that she hasn't thought about this question, she has thought about it when the empress brought it up again and again, and when she met Zhou Yan several times for no reason, she also had a hunch, but... But tonight, she just met Bai Ming confessed, just... She doesn't know how to describe her current mood.

"Emperor Mother..." Xia Mi opened her mouth, and Qing Wu coughed slightly beside her.Xia Mi knew that it was meant to remind her.

"My son..."

"I know." The empress interrupted her, and looked at her very seriously. For the first time in so many years, she was looking at Xia Mi instead of others.The empress waved her hand, beckoning Xia Mi to come over, and took Xia Mi's shoulders to let her sit on the edge of the rocking chair, "I know how you feel, but... that's not the reason."

"Isn't that a reason?" Xia Mi asked in disbelief.

The empress shook her head, "No, you are not strong enough, any reason is not a reason."

Xia Mi had no way to refute this.

After a long silence, Xia Mi stubbornly swallowed back her tears, and looked up at her, "Empress, what you did in the hunting ground was for you, who was not strong enough back then, revenge? Now, you are doing the same thing. Hope to do it all over again with my daughter?"

The empress touched her head, "The boss is too thoughtful, he committed the act of killing his mother, the youngest and the youngest are arrogant, although now he has restrained his temper, he is not a benevolent person. The country cannot be left in the hands of people like them. The second child, If there is a choice, I don't want it to be you." Her hand rested on Xia Mi's back.

She had hoped countless times that this child, who looked like Lanshan, would be able to walk a path she could not walk, a path she had hoped for but was powerless to do.However, fate often does not give you hope, nor does it give you choices.The Empress sighed, at the New Year's Eve banquet, if there were no accidents, she was going to unplug the Song family and right the boss, right now...

The empress coughed twice, and Xia Mi hurriedly turned to follow her back. Since last summer, the empress's body has gradually declined, and she started to light the stove before winter, and she is even more afraid of the cold after winter.In addition to today's events, Xia Mi vaguely thought of a thought and shook her head vigorously. She hoped that she was thinking too much.

Wait, the boss killed his mother? "Sister... sister, she..." It took Xia Mi a long time to react, the Empress gave her a wry smile, and pointed to the booklet on the side, "Look for yourself."

Seeing ten lines at a glance, Xia Mi trembled angrily.Not long after the youngest servant became pregnant, the eldest concubine was happy but did not report it. Not only that, she sent Qi Yan back to China in name, but she slowed down her schedule along the way and didn't even go to the border. Now she is on standby in Beizhou.Beizhou is the closest Zhou County to Shangjing, and it is also the outer city of Shangjing.

Song Guogong, Ministry of War, Xia Wu.Doing it when Xia Wu is not selected for the New Year's Eve banquet, that is, making an alibi.As long as it succeeds, Xia Wu will rush back directly from Beizhou without any difficulty.

Even Xia Mi who is in Shangjing may not know, then who is the best to be accused of assassination?Of course it was Xia Mi who was at the banquet together. As long as Xia Wu was in the name of the Qing emperor, he could directly kill Xia Mi on the spot.These are as seamless as flowing clouds and flowing water.

However, the defeat came on the day of the banquet. Xia Mi sacrificed her life to save the empress, and Baiming rescued Xia Mi. Once the time was delayed, the imperial guards and Jinwu guards all arrived. The bloody battle was naturally won by the empress.

After reading the excerpts, Xia Mi broke out in a cold sweat with cold hands and feet.The empress took her hand, rubbed it, and ordered Qingwu to get a coat and wrap it around her.The empress covered the corner of her mouth and coughed twice, "Second brother, the ancestors handed over the country to me, and I can't destroy it."

So, you ruined me.Xia Mi looked at her, and completed her words in her heart.But what does Jiangshan Sheji have to do with her? Why should she sacrifice her own happiness in exchange?Ever since she passed through, the empress hadn't cared about her. She was raised in free range, and she survived through her own efforts.

Why should she fulfill her obligations without even enjoying her rights?

The more Xia Mi thought about it, the more unwilling she felt, tears were rolling in her eyes, she bit her lower lip desperately, and couldn't even say a word against her will.The empress took her head and leaned into her arms, and sighed a few times, "Zhen, it was so hard back then, but ah, second child... your surname is Xia, and you have Xia's blood, so you can't..." Take no responsibility for that."

"It's Zhen, I'm sorry." The empress patted her shoulder lightly, her voice was softer, "Zhen, I'm afraid it won't be long."

Xia Mi was startled, and when she heard her say that, she didn't know how to answer.

"My child, it's not that I force you, but that you are not strong enough." The empress hugged Xia Mi, and their mother and daughter talked a lot that night, as if they had finished all the things they hadn't said in the past 17 years.

It was not until the sky became hazy, the Empress was not in a good state of mind, and she had almost finished what she wanted to say, that Xia Mi was allowed to go back.On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, they go to court, so they can rest on this day.

Xia Mi, with bloodshot eyes, walked back to Xige Hall in a daze, but what she saw was Bai Ming who had been waiting all night. She and Xia Mi smiled faintly.

As if, know everything.

Xia Mi's tears finally couldn't help falling down, her eyes darkened and she passed out.
