Shen Menghan went out early in the morning.

When he got up, Xie Chenyan was clearly still asleep, Shen Menghan lifted Ye Mingzhu's veil and he woke up, ready to get up sleepily.

Boys of this age are always sleepy, Shen Menghan couldn't bear it, pushed him back on the couch and said: "I can't take you with me today, you just fell asleep."

Xie Chenyan rubbed his eyes, and it took a long while before he realized, and replied in a low voice: "Oh."

He spent the middle of the night last night after Shen Menghan fell asleep, and it's still early in the morning, so he's still not quite awake.

He turned over and lay down on the couch, arched into a ball, only a tuft of hair on the tip of his head was exposed.

There is a kind of unconscious cuteness.

Shen Menghan couldn't help stretching out his hand to smooth it out for him.

Although invisible to the eyes, the sound of Shen Menghan's calm and unhurried footsteps, washing, cleansing, changing clothes, softly instructing Liangyue and Xixuan, holding the pot, raising the cup, sipping a cup of warm tea, the sound came to my ears, and Xie Chenyan was lying in the quilt impatiently Rubbing for a while, holding back the sudden restlessness in his body.

A trace of coldness left on the top of the hair, delicately crisped half of Xie Chenyan's body.

Sticking together for a long time, it is difficult to detect subtle changes.

The obtuse Xie Chenyan suddenly realized that at some point, Shen Menghan began to deliberately distance himself from him, and even touching the top of his head was very rare recently.

The sudden touch made Xie Chenyan a little unbearable.

He was a little frustrated, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out why this happened. As soon as Shen Menghan left, he couldn't fall asleep.

There was one person missing, the hall was empty, and the only trace of coldness was taken away by Shen Menghan, leaving only damp and stuffy heat in the hall.

His Royal Highness Liang poured ice water in summer and hot water in winter, making it warm in winter and cool in summer, making it extremely comfortable.

Only Xie Chenyan roasted the ginkgo fruit over the charcoal fire, feeling hot at the same time.

Liangyue lectured him while embroidering patterns: "You don't know blessings when you are in the blessings. You know how much effort it takes to lay out this earth dragon, and how many people are there to maintain it. Ordinary people don't have to take it easy."

Si Niang squatted aside and fiddled with the lotus seed, and said pleasantly, "It really sprouted!"

Liangyue also stopped the needle, the three heads got together, and the big and second flowers also rushed to get closer, but Xie Chenyan kicked them away with her toes.

Siniang glanced at the bandage in Liangyue's hand, and said with a smile, "Hey, what Liangyue embroiders is also lotus and lotus root."

After saying that, he winked at Xie Chenyan, Xie Chenyan didn't know, so he went up to take a closer look, and said with certainty: "It's really lotus and lotus root."

Si Niang rolled her eyes upon hearing this.

Xie Chenyan stretched out his hand and tugged at the bright red silk, and asked strangely, "Do you like this color? No one in our family wears clothes of this color."

Some of Shen Menghan and Xie Chenyan's clothes were also made by Liang Yue, but no matter who they are, they have never used such bright colors.

Liangyue blushed, but she was embarrassed to explain, she stretched out her hand and pulled the red silk from Xie Chenyan's hand, and said, "You just touched the ginkgo fruit on your hand, it stinks to death."

"I've washed it, and it doesn't stink at all." Xie Chenyan said inexplicably, "You still eat it if you think it stinks."

Liangyue turned around, sat aside with Dahua and Erhua in her arms, and concentrated on embroidering her wedding dress.

Xie Chenyan pulled Si Niang aside, asked her softly: "I wanted to use or forgot to bite his yesterday, but the Gu worm did not move, as if it was dead."

Si Niang said decisively: "Impossible! Maybe I will live a long time!"

Xie Chenyan said unconvinced: "Look for yourself."

Siniang poured or forgot out of the bamboo tube, said "huh", pulled it out with her hands and said, "It's not dead, it's about to have a baby."

Xie Chenyan looked at the Gu worm curiously, and suddenly what Mrs. Xiang said echoed in his mind, he was startled, and hurriedly grabbed Si Niang's hand and said: "Maybe you will forget to have a baby... the heart-changing Gu ..."

Si Niang reacted just now, her hands began to shake and she said: "I can... Dugu can give birth to babies."

"...I'm sorry... I forgot... After Du Gu wakes up from a deep sleep, he will give birth."

Xie Chenyan jumped up and rushed towards the front yard.

He was so fast that he didn't even have time to knock on the door. He rushed straight into Zhou Qian's room, and unexpectedly bumped into Xi Xuan and a woman in his room. Didn't you follow Brother Menghan?"

Juexuan just came back, and he didn't know where Shen Menghan took Juexi today, so he looked at Zhou Qian in a blink of an eye.

Zhou Qian explained to him: "The young master went to Tangquan Palace to meet the Fifth Prince today."

Xie Chenyan was so anxious that tears were about to fall, he stomped his feet and said, "I have something very important to see him!"

The woman had been staring at him since he entered the door, her expression gradually became serious from the demure and peaceful one at the beginning, and her willow eyebrows gradually tightened.

Xie Chenyan didn't realize it, and his gaze never fell on her again.

Juexuan poured him a cup of tea, and said slowly, "If you have anything to say, it's the same to talk to Mr. Zhou first."

Xie Chenyan raised his glass and drank it down.

When he was nervous, his mind went blank.

The woman got up and went forward, stretched out her hand and patted the big hole on his body.

Xie Chenyan twisted his body to avoid it, but fortunately, in front of Zhou Qian and Xi Xuan, he restrained the desire to fight back, and looked at her inexplicably.

Jue Xuan said softly: "Don't be afraid, Xiao Xie, Miss Ruan is a doctor."

Xie Chenyan listened to his words, stood there obediently, Ren Ruansha felt his pulse, and gave two more needles tentatively.

He remembered what he wanted to say, turned his head and said to Zhou Qian: "It's Si Niang! Si Niang, she forgot that heart-changing Gu can give birth to babies!"

Xie Chenyan emphasized: "There should be two heart-changing Gus in this world."

Zhou Qian was startled, the blood all over his body was about to freeze, and suddenly murmured: "Concubine Qi's mother, Mrs. Zhang, and King You's mother, Zhao Chongyi's father, were Jinshi on the same list, and they were both servants of the Ministry of Industry. They are boudoirs. Hand the handkerchief..."

If this is the case, then the matter of Shen Huaiyu and Shen Bi can be completely explained, they are not looking for things for Yu Shengyuan, they are looking for things for the Fifth Prince!

"...you king and concubine Qi are likely to have an old relationship. And the fifth prince has been ill for a long time, and no one has seen him for a long time."

Juexuan suddenly got up.

Although Xie Chenyan didn't know what Zhou Qian was talking about, he felt that Xuan was going to find Shen Menghan, so he pulled his clothes and said, "I'll go with you!"

Juexuan took Xie Chenyan with him and galloped all the way to Tangquan Palace.

Ruan Sha said to Zhou Qian: "He doesn't remember me."

Ruan Sha has lived outside the Great Wall for a long time, and Ruan Sha has been in charge of diagnosis and treatment of Xie Rou's illness. Xie Chenyan has known her since childhood, but in just one year, when Xie Chenyan looked at her, he was a complete stranger.

Zhou Qian frowned slightly when he heard the words, and clenched his teacup tightly.

Ruan Sha said coldly: "He is very dangerous now, we can't keep him by Young Master's side."

Shen Menghan also never expected that it was Concubine Qi who received him in the palace.

This place has long been known as a hot spring, and it is also a relatively warm place near Jinling City.

The surrounding area has long been in ruins, but here the flowers and trees are scattered, and there is still a trace of greenery.

In addition, the hot spring mist rises, as if returning to the summer of Baixia Town.

Concubine Qi led him to the depths of the palace, while laughing at Yan Yan and said: "You and your mother are really carved out of the same mold."

She is no different from when Yun Hua Sect first met that day, with strict make-up and appearance, gentle and amiable.

A look of reminiscence appeared on her face: "It's all about 30 or [-] years ago."

"I saw your mother once at Linde's 21st year's Qianqiu Banquet, and His Majesty was astonished, and immediately told His Highness King You that he wanted to marry her when he grew up."

Concubine Qi covered her mouth with a smile and said, "How old was Your Majesty at that time? It's about six years old. Your mother is only ten years old, and she is just at the beginning of her youth."

In the 22nd year of Linde, the Lin family was convicted of compiling history. Lin Ran was immediately confiscated into Yeting, and three years later he was sold as an official prostitute.

The crime of the Lin family is related to the righteousness of the late emperor, even if one day Shen Menghan's power falls to the court, he will not be able to exonerate the Lin family.

Therefore, the matter between Shen Zhuo and Lin Ran caused such a big disturbance back then.

Because of this, Shen Menghan's life experience became difficult to tell.

As for Lin Ran's 20 years in the brothel Chu Pavilion, only those involved can understand how much resentment, blood and tears during that time, and how he continued to lead with Shen Zhuo, leaving Shen Menghan behind.

"I remember all these years." She said with emotion, "Where did I expect that there would be so many years of grievances and entanglements?"

Concubine Qi sighed softly: "Huang Liang has a dream, things are different."

Shen Menghan frowned slightly.

Concubine Qi is one year younger than Concubine Shen Zhuo. What happened to Linde's 21-year Qianqiu Banquet can be remembered so clearly by Concubine Qi who is only five years old.

What's more, Shen Zhuo and Lin Ran were responsible for the entanglement of grievances, so what has it to do with her?

Shen Menghan's footsteps suddenly stopped.

After the 21st year of Linde's Qianqiu Festival, the candidate who was supposed to pledge Beizhao was temporarily changed from Shen Zhuo to Shen Zhen.

At the Qianqiu Banquet that year, the six-year-old Shen Zhuo broke a lotus pod in the Taiye Pond and offered it to the late emperor.

The moon is in the middle of the sky, when the palace banquet is approaching.

The wine is hot, and the leftovers are cold.

Shen Zhuo broke off a handful of tender lotus seeds.

His mother and concubine died early, and the first emperor suddenly felt pity for his son, and Shen Shen, who was about the same age as him, happened to be crying endlessly at the side.

I don't know whether it was unintentional or deliberate, but after a small episode, the two people's lives have been different since then.

16 years later, King You returned to the south, and Shen Zhuo was already in power, aspiring to win the ninth place.

Shen Menghan's fingers trembled slightly.

This matter was discovered by accident when Shen Menghan was investigating Shen Huaiyu.

Concubine Qi had remembered it for so many years, and today she specially pointed it out to him.

Cheng Feng noticed his lingering eyes, took a step forward, and clasped his fingers slightly on the hilt of the sword, in a gesture of obeying orders.

Shen Menghan mouthed: "Go and transfer troops."

Juexuan and Xie Chenyan rushed to the gate of Tangquan Palace, and happened to meet Cheng Feng coming out of the palace.

Xie Chenyan hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Brother Menghan!"

As soon as Cheng Feng separated from Xi Xuan, he saw Xi Xuan again, even though he had experienced many battles, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

He collected himself, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a huge explosion in the palace.

Xie Chenyan was startled by the earth-shattering sound, and there was a sudden silence in his ears.

He still couldn't understand what happened, Xinghe stared at Juexuan blankly with widened eyes.

The splendid and magnificent royal palace collapsed in front of them.

The carved beams and painted buildings are reduced to dust and dust.
