In winter, the snowflakes broke the dry branches and fell in the courtyard with rustling.

Fu Ziqin hugged her more than June belly and looked at the snow through the flower window.

There was news from King Kangnan that Cheng Yuting gave birth to a boy named Yiran, and the father and son were safe.And, after the beginning of spring, raise troops to seize the throne.

"Niang Niang, sit down for a while." Yufeng who was supporting him said.

Fu Ziqin groaned, walked to the recliner and fell asleep.

Yufeng stepped forward to massage his swollen calf and said, "The little prince will be born in three months."

Fu Ziqin touched his stomach and looked out the window.

It was also snowing like this before he left, and he still didn't dare to go out in the middle of the month, so he could only stand by the window with Si Huaning in his arms and look out.The daughter's black pearl-like eyes looked at the fluttering snowflakes curiously, with a white and tender little finger in her mouth, and a mouthful of saliva flowed out.He couldn't help laughing, wondering when such a small child would grow up.

Si Lixiao was still a child at that time, and he built three snowmen in the yard, two big and one small.The youngest had two braided branches on his head, for fear that others would not know that he had a precious daughter.

who knew...

Feeling the beating in his stomach, Fu Ziqin sighed.

Zuo Qishang came over with the anti-fetal medicine, bowed and said, "Please drink the medicine, Madam."

Fu Ziqin waved his hand to let the others count down, picked up the medicine and said, "But what's the important thing?"

Zuo Qishang took out a porcelain white medicine bottle from her sleeve, and said: "This medicine tastes like jasmine, and if taken, it can slowly accumulate poison in the body, and eventually cause people to die suddenly, and there is no trace of abnormality. Back then, Madam applied this medicine all over her body and killed the dog emperor quietly."

"Can't you put it in the food?" Fu Ziqin blushed slightly.

"The emperor's food will be tested for poison, I'm afraid it will be found out." Zuo Qishang explained.

Fu Ziqin responded with an "oh", and took it silently.

"If you don't want to do it, you can kill the emperor when King Kangnan breaks through the imperial city." Zuo Qishang whispered.

"I'll do it." Fu Ziqin replied, and Si Lixiao died suddenly, so the siege of the city was safe.

Zuo Qishang nodded, "I'm worried that time is running out and the toxicity will become stronger. You must not eat it after you apply it on your body. The effect will be seen in a month or so at the latest."

Fu Ziqin squeezed the medicine bottle in his hand, and responded lightly.

After a few days, Si Lixiao went back to the northern suburbs palace to see him as usual, his expression of neither joy nor worry was the same as usual.

"It's snowing a lot." Si Lixiao took off his fox fur, and hugged Fu Ziqin in his arms again, "Well, you should keep warm."

Fu Ziqin had long been used to it and let him hold her.

"Is the child still bothering you?" Si Lixiao asked.

Such tenderness made goosebumps all over the floor, Fu Ziqin curled her lips and said, "No."

"Well, he really is my good son." Si Lixiao patted his swollen belly.

"What if it's a daughter again?" Fu Ziqin asked.

"Then make her a princess, and we'll be born again." Si Lixiao shamelessly touched Fu Ziqin's firm buttocks.

Fu Ziqin moved uncomfortably, and Si Lixiao laughed loudly, calling for someone to bring a brand new tiger-skin jacket.

"When I was hunting, I met a tiger, so I hunted it and made clothes for you." Si Lixiao said with a smile.

"I have enough winter clothes." Fu Ziqin said with his head down.

"It's for my son." Si Lixiao stood up, picked up the leather jacket and put it on Fu Ziqin.

Pushed to the front of the bronze mirror, Fu Ziqin looked around and felt like a hunter.

"I look much more energetic in this outfit." Si Lixiao put his shoulders on his shoulders.

Fu Ziqin pulled the hem of his jacket, silently looking at the man standing behind him in the mirror.

Cloudy and sunny.

He had long understood this man's temper.

When you are happy, hold you in your arms like a pearl like a treasure, and when you are unhappy, you will step on it like a rag.Just like a baby who is not yet sensible, doing things according to his temper.

Being pregnant with a child should not take a long bath, so Fu Ziqin got out of the tub with Zuo Qishang's support, and took out a small bottle from his clothes to apply medicine.

"Won't this medicine hurt the child?" Fu Ziqin asked while holding the bottle.

"Don't worry, it will only work if you take it." Zuo Qishang replied.

Fu Ziqin hesitated for a moment, poured some liquid medicine in his hands and rubbed it on his collarbone.That person likes to chew on this place the most, and he will definitely eat it.

Putting on his clothes and returning to the bedroom, Si Lixiao was sitting under the lamp, savoring a volume of books carefully.

"What are you looking at?" Fu Ziqin stepped forward a little bit, the obvious scent of jasmine on his body made him a little nervous.

Si Lixiao didn't even raise his head, "History."

"Oh." Fu Ziqin replied.

"From ancient times to the present, the dynasties have only lasted a few hundred years." Si Lixiao shook the scroll, "I don't know how long our dynasty can last."

Fu Ziqin stood and waited for a while, seeing that Si Lixiao was concentrating on the history books, so he went back to the couch alone.

As soon as he lay down, he was hugged from behind.

"It smells so good." Si Lixiao smelled it from Fu Ziqin's shoulder.

Si Lixiao's breath made people feel a little itchy, Fu Ziqin shrank his neck and said calmly: "Jasmine was put in the bath water."

"Well, it really smells like Jasmine." Si Lixiao bit Fu Ziqin's ear.

It stands to reason that we should go with the flow now, but Fu Ziqin's body was as stiff as a cicada chrysalis, and he hugged his stomach to avoid Si Lixiao's pursuit.

"What's the matter?" Si Lixiao lowered his hand, "Isn't the reason for washing so fragrant to seduce me?"

Fu Ziqin's face turned red when someone punctured his mind.

Si Lixiao smiled and kissed him on the face, "You are pregnant and inconvenient, how about I come from behind?"

Fu Ziqin's face was already red enough to bleed, and he closed his eyes tightly and was placed on the couch like a ****.

When he opened his eyes the next day, it was already high in the sun, and Fu Ziqin wanted to get up, but his back was limp and weak as if falling apart.With a big belly, Cheng Huan was still a bit reluctant, Fu Ziqin lay down and rubbed his back, and suddenly remembered that Si Lixiao had been attacking from behind the whole time last night, without licking his collarbone at all.

Fu Ziqin pursed her lips in regret.

After lying down for a long time, he called people in. Yufeng led a group of maids to wash and dress him.

Stretching his stomach, he went to the main hall and saw Si Lixiao's figure, Fu Ziqin asked, "Where is Your Majesty?"

"Responding to your mother's words, your Majesty went to the backyard to shoot arrows." The palace man replied.

What kind of arrows do you shoot in the snow?Fu Ziqin put on the tiger-skin jacket given by the emperor yesterday and walked towards the courtyard.

With a sound of "咻", the feather arrow went straight into the red heart.

Standing under the umbrella supported by Yufeng, Fu Ziqin silently watched as Si Lixiao pulled the pistol away and hit the bull's-eye again.

Si Lixiao put down his bow and looked at Fu Ziqin, "Are you awake?"

Fu Ziqin nodded, "Yes."

Si Lixiao waved his hand, and all the palace guards left the backyard, even Yufeng handed the umbrella to Fu Ziqin, bowed and left.

"What's wrong?" Fu Ziqin held an umbrella and walked to Si Lixiao's side.

Si Lixiao reached out for the handle of the umbrella, and said calmly: "It always snows and reminds me of the day you left."

Fu Ziqin thumped in his heart, wondering why the emperor suddenly brought up this matter.

"Even if I become the emperor and ascend to the hall, I'm not as ecstatic as when you gave birth to Hua Ning." Si Lixiao put his hands behind his back.

Fu Ziqin looked at him, trying to find a clue from that indifferent face.

"Do you ever know what happened after you just gave birth to Hua Ning and passed out?" Si Lixiao glanced at him.

Seeing that Fu Ziqin didn't answer, Si Lixiao continued: "Suddenly there was a summons from the palace, saying something serious happened to the emperor."

Fu Ziqin's heart trembled, and he looked at the pale snow.

"When I arrived at the palace, I saw gauze wrapped around my father's waist, which was faintly stained with blood. The queen mother was surrounded by several guards with disheveled hair, holding a bloody dagger in her hand." Si Lixiao paused , the voice became more and more sinking, "It was that day that I found out that the queen mother was the wife of the patriarch of Taoyuan. In order to win the queen mother, the father did not hesitate to slaughter the Taoyuan clan."

Fu Ziqin gritted his teeth, with fear and resentment in his eyes.

"I originally thought that the empress mother was just cold-tempered," Si Lixiao shook his head with a wry smile, "So she hated us father and son from the very beginning."

Hanying fell silently, and a thick layer of white snow had accumulated on the bright yellow umbrella.

"Even so, the father still regards the mother as the most honorable woman in the whole dynasty like a god." Si Lixiao's tone was more piercing than the heavy snow, "I don't understand the father's obsession, let alone the mother's ruthlessness .”

Fu Ziqin was silent, Si Lixiao was only 16 years old at the time, and it was really sad that he had to undergo such a huge change at the age of 16.

Si Lixiao took a deep breath and said, "But at least then, I will have you and our Hua Ning."

The heart seemed to be smashed into pieces, and pieces were scattered in Fu Ziqin's hands. The sharp edges and corners weighed as much as a thousand catties, stinging his pale palms.

"But the queen mother heard about you from the 'virtuous and virtuous' tenth prince and concubine, and tried to take you away from me." Si Lixiao snorted.

Fu Ziqin raised his head abruptly, "So, you are going to kill me."

"Kill you?" Si Lixiao's eyes were full of sarcasm, "If you want to leave with all your heart, the pot of poisonous wine is prepared for you. If you would rather die than stay by my side..."

Si Lixiao didn't continue, and Fu Ziqin's mind had exploded into chaos.

If he'd rather stay with this man, if he'd been more honest...

Si Lixiao glanced at the pale man, and said, "The snow is getting heavier, let's go in."

Fu Ziqin nodded blankly, and walked into the hall with Si Lixiao.

Si Lixiao put down the umbrella and shook the snow off his shoulders.Fu Ziqin stood a little tired, sitting on the wicker chair and watching him quietly.

If he was willing to stay back then, maybe he could hug their Hua Ning and happily wait for the birth of the second child.

But he is from the Taoyuan clan, a Taoyuan clan that has a blood feud with the Si Dynasty royal family.Since Si Lixiao was born, they were destined to be enemies.
