Tangled

"Your Majesty, the Empress Empress is here." Jin Qing opened the curtain and came in, and said to Su Qingwan who was dozing off on the couch.

"Xiaoxiao?" Su Qingwan suddenly came to her senses, and immediately sat up straight, "Please ask the empress to go to Ruan Meiren's place, and don't let the empress step into the main palace."

"Yes." Jin Qing responded.

When Su Qingwan tidied up her appearance and drove to Ruan Meiren's room with Mu Luoluo, she saw that the two of them had already made scented tea.

"I never thought that one day I would be shut down by Concubine Shu." Mu Xiaoxiao laughed.

"A few days ago, I killed a few rabbits in the backyard and roasted them. Although the smell of blood has disappeared, it is still unlucky. I am afraid that it will hit the baby in the empress's belly." Su Qingwan smiled and was also on the couch. After sitting down, Ruan Meiren came over with a cup of tea at the right time, "Why is your empress so interested in coming to my place today?"

"It's nothing, it's just that your Majesty hunted a few foxes a few days ago, and wanted to make a few fox-collared cloaks. I can't use that many by myself, so I thought about giving one to my sister." Mu Xiaoxiao said, "The fiery red color , it is joyous."

"I don't lack these. Several pieces of fox furs that His Majesty rewarded a few years ago have fallen into dust in the storeroom." Su Qingwan picked up the teacup, took a sip and replied.

"It's winter, and Qingwan is too lazy to go out. It's better to give it to Ruan Meiren. Now Ruan Xiaozhu is raising Princess Hehua under her knees, and she can't help going out to play with her in winter." Mu Luoluo continued.

"That's right." Mu Xiaoxiao nodded, "I'm also thanking Sister Ruan for taking me in today."

Ruan Meiren, who was reading a book quietly at the side, was suddenly mentioned, and she was a little confused when she raised her head, and then she realized, "The concubine is very loving, and the concubine is overjoyed. It's just that the concubine's rank is low. I'm afraid I can't use the fiery fox." collar."

"There is nothing that is useful or not, the empress rewarded it personally, and who would dare to criticize it." Su Qingwan put down the teacup and said with a smile.

"Sister Ruan has served His Majesty for many years, and now she enjoys a salary of the third grade, and the red fox collar is not out of order." Mu Xiaoxiao blinked, looking at the fruit on Ruan Meiren's table, feeling a little greedy, "So, tomorrow I will be Send someone to bring the fox fur, and Sister Ruan can handle it by herself."

"But it's disrespectful, I thank the empress for the reward." Ruan Meiren got up and saluted.

Mu Xiaoxiao waved her hand to signal Ruan Meiren not to be too polite, but her eyes did not leave the plate of fruit on the table.

Ruan Meiren is clever, seeing this situation, she turned around and went to the side cabinet to get a silver needle, and handed it to Mu Xiaoxiao, "This fruit was picked by Princess Hehua in the forest. The imperial doctor has seen it and said it is non-toxic. Eat it, if you don’t believe me, you can try it with silver needles, it’s also sweet and sour, but you can’t eat too much.”

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Zhen'er anxiously, Su Qingwan couldn't help laughing, and reached out to take the silver needle from Ruan Meiren's hand, "Zhen'er really strictly controls the diet of the empress, how can a dignified queen be so greedy like this?" .”

"Your Majesty, you can give the Empress Empress less food. This morning, the Empress Empress has a big appetite and ate a lot of food. The servants are afraid that she will be flatulent, so they urged the Empress Empress to come out and walk around." Zhen'er said with a smile.

"Just eat one to satisfy your hunger." Mu Luoluo also smiled, no wonder Mu Xiaoxiao's face looked rounder.

In this situation, even Ruan Meiren, who is as determined as Ruan Meiren, couldn't help covering her mouth with a handkerchief.

Mu Xiaoxiao took the non-poisonous fruit that Su Qingwan had tried, and then glanced at everyone in the room, "You really have grown up, how dare you laugh at me here, I will punish you all!"

"I don't know how the empress will punish us?" Su Qingwan handed the silver needle to Zisu, motioning for her to put it away.

"Punish you to be so harmonious in the future. If you don't obey, you will be punished twenty times." Mu Xiaoxiao finally couldn't hold back anymore, and laughed while holding her belly.

"Since you're worried about your empress' flatulence, why don't you go out for a walk together? I just got bored in the palace these few days." Su Qingwan said, then turned to look at Ruan Meiren, "Sister Ruan, do you want to go with me?"

"I won't go as a concubine, I have an appointment with Fang Meiren and the others later." Ruan Meiren shook her head and refused with a smile.

"Then let's go ahead and disturb my sister for a long time." Su Qingwan stood up, and then reached out to touch the back of Ruan Meiren's hand, "Sister, don't need to see her off."

"The concubine is sending off the empress and concubine concubine respectfully." Ruan Meiren did not get up as she said, but nodded slightly, watching the two leave.

"There is a hot spring in this mountain that nourishes people very much. Walking there can be regarded as refreshing." Seeing that there was no one around, Su Qingwan reached out and took Mu Luoluo's arm.

"I don't have an idea either. Just listen to what Elder Sister Su says." Mu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath. She was exhausted when she came here, and it has been seven or eight days, but she still hasn't eased up, and her back is still sore. If you have a backache, it is also good to go to the hot spring.

Su Qingwan nodded, thinking that she would not be able to come back at lunch time, so she turned around and told Jin Qing to go back to the palace to prepare some food.

"The news came from the palace a few days ago that the imperial concubine gave birth to the prince on the second day of September, and the mother and child are safe." Mu Xiaoxiao supported Zhen'er's hand, and walked slowly, "Your Majesty's title, I mean it as an assistant."

"The imperial concubine has a prince under her knees, and now she has added assistants, so her position is really stable." Su Qingwan chuckled, "It's better to be named Hao'er, Hao is born in the East, and in the future, I will go to the East to be an idle prince, like a king, and the wild cranes are also very good .”

"That's exactly what I mean." Mu Xiaoxiao nodded, she had no ambitions or grand plans, she just wanted the children to be safe and sound.

Su Qingwan said that Tangquan is located in a deep mountain. Although the terrain is flat all the way into the mountain, it is still half an hour's journey, and Mu Xiaoxiao arrived after several rests.

Tangquan is hidden in the jagged rocks. For four years, there has been water flowing out of the stone walls. There are dark springs under the water surface. It feels like midsummer.

"How did Sister Su find this place? It's a treasure." Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and she ran to the water's edge, but Zhen'er couldn't hold her back.

"You can slow down, the water is slippery, if something happens to the emperor's heir in your belly, I can't afford it." Su Qingwan laughed.

After undressing for a while, all three of them entered the water. The temperature of the water was neither too hot nor too cold, and it was relaxing the whole body.

"Thanks to Zhen'er urging me to go out today, otherwise I would have missed this worldly pleasure." Since she was pregnant, Mu Xiaoxiao's back has been sore and her legs have been hurting. Really relieved a lot.

"I didn't plan to come today, it's just a coincidence." Mu Luoluo wet Su Qingwan's black hair with water, and then gently smoothed it with a wooden comb.

"This way, I always feel that someone is following us." Mu Xiaoxiao was supported by Zhen'er, and slowly sank into the water.

"You don't have to worry about that, it's the lieutenant sent by your brother to protect you." Su Qingwan got water on her hands, and turned her head to flick Mu Luoluo's face.

Mu Luoluo didn't defend herself, and was splashed with water on her face. After realizing it, she was not to be outdone, and tapped the wooden comb obliquely on the water surface, and the water splashed, and it really paid back the water on Su Qingwan's face.

"Okay, don't make trouble, wait until I finish combing." Seeing that Su Qingwan wanted to fight back, Mu Luoluo hurriedly raised her hand to hold her shoulder. Su Qingwan snorted softly and fell silent for a while.

Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and watched from the side, eating the snacks brought by Jinqing, but was stopped by Zhen'er from time to time, Mu Xiaoxiao silently remembered in her heart that when the fetuses landed in her womb, she must make up for them one by one.

"Why don't you see Jin Qing?" Zhen'er sat on the bank and combed slowly.

"Elder brother only sent one deputy future, I can't let others be left alone." Su Qingwan blinked playfully, there is no need to explain the deep meaning of these words, everyone present smiled knowingly.

"It's really a girl who doesn't want to stay." Mu Xiaoxiao smiled, and then pointed to Zhen'er Zhu'er behind her, "I don't know if the champion general has other lieutenants, but I will match these two maids with marriage."

"Your Majesty!" Zhu'er shouted anxiously, her face flushed red.

"The slaves and maidservants want to serve the empress for a few more years." In contrast, Zhen'er is more determined. It is honorable to come alone, but the servants don't want to marry early and serve others."

"I should have a master-servant relationship, so it's just laziness." Su Qingwan laughed.

Mu Luoluo smiled and shook her head, watching the three masters and servants frolicking over there, and the two sisters, Zhen'er and Zhuer, were older, so there was no need to worry about the importance of the subordinates.

Su Qingwan watched Mu Luoluo turn around and walk to the bank to get the fruit, her eyes rolled and she took a deep breath and sank into the water.

It just so happened that Zhen Er obeyed the imperial doctor's order and urged Mu Xiaoxiao to go ashore without letting Mu Xiaoxiao soak for too long. She didn't see Su Qingwan hiding in the water, so when Mu Luoluo turned her head, she couldn't find her anywhere. Su Qingwan.

"Qingwan?" Mu Luoluo called out, but no one answered.

Mu Xiaoxiao was about to stand up and help them search, but Zhu'er held her down. Zhu'er pursed her lips and smiled, shaking her head slightly.

Mu Luoluo was a little flustered, remembering the past when she was ten years old, she hurriedly approached the place where the two separated just now.

When Mu Luoluo approached, Su Qingwan suddenly broke through the water. Mu Luoluo was unprepared, and was thrown into the water by Su Qingwan, and the water splashed everywhere.

Su Qingwan had been prepared for a long time, she inhaled when she rushed out of the water, and the moment she hugged Mu Luoluo, she sealed her lips and tongue, and slowly passed her breath under the water, taking advantage of the situation to attack the city.

Mu Luoluo's mind went blank for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, she hugged Su Qingwan's waist, reacting passively and taking the initiative. The long hair of the two of them scattered under the water and became entangled.

The fruit that Mu Luoluo took was already out of her hands, and now it is floating on the water lonely, ups and downs with the movements of the two of them.

The spring water was crystal clear, and the water vapor on the water surface dissipated due to the tossing between the two of them. Mu Xiaoxiao blushed after only one glance, and turned around hastily.

When the two of them came out of the water, they were both out of breath, water drops slid down their cheeks, and they smiled.

"You scared me to death." Mu Luoluo raised her hand, and flicked Su Qingwan's forehead gently, "Don't do that next time."

"Understood." Su Qingwan blinked her eyes obediently, she caught a glimpse of the fruit still ups and downs in the water, walked over to pick it up, and turned her head to see that the redness on Mu Luoluo's face was still there, she suddenly became interested again.

Just now, Mu Luoluo squeezed some water from her hair, when she looked up, she saw Su Qingwan walking towards her with the green fruit she had just taken in her mouth, the fruit with red lips and green water droplets.

"Let's go out for a walk." Seeing this situation, people with discerning eyes would naturally not stay here, the three master and servant chuckled and tiptoed away.

Mu Luoluo is slightly taller than Su Qingwan, and Su Qingwan deliberately squatted down, there was a slight gap between the two, Su Qingwan raised her head, and sent the fruit in her mouth to Mu Luoluo, as if you could taste it cute appearance.

In the next second, Su Qingwan only felt her waist tighten, and she came out of dehydration. She couldn't help but let out an exclamation, and the poor fruit plunged into the water again.

"No matter how sweet the fruit is, it can't be half as sweet as you think about it."
