There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 139 Unforgettable
It was almost noon when we returned to Chaoluan Hall.

When the lunch was served, Tang Wanning ate a little absent-mindedly, and even the few pots of red rose flowers bought by "heavy gold" lost their color.

When Xia Houjue came in, she happened to see her staring at a table of dishes in a daze.

He was even more upset.

This woman would rather be in a daze than try to please him. She hasn't been here for so many days, is she not worried at all?
"Cough cough!"

Xia Houjue protested that he had no sense of existence and coughed loudly on purpose.

Tang Wanning snapped back to her senses and saw that it was Xia Houjue who hurriedly got up to greet her.

"See Your Royal Highness!"

"Get up!"

Xia Houjue glared at her several times before making her stand up.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Tang Wanning, who was thinking about something, thanked her, then sat at the table again and became absent-minded.

He neither let Xia Houjue, nor said the first half of a thoughtful word.

Xia Houjue: "..."

He felt that his heart was cold and cold, and he was very depressed.

Why is it that other people's eldest wives can put their husbands in their hearts, while my own eldest wife is talking all day long, wondering what she is doing?
The two just sat like this, one was in a daze, the other was watching, the atmosphere was very awkward.

After an unknown amount of time, Tang Wanning finally breathed out, picked up her chopsticks and prepared to eat, when she raised her eyes, she saw Xia Houjue was beside her.

"Huh? Are you here, Your Highness? Have you eaten yet?"

Xia Houjue died with a spurt of qi and blood.

……

Anger is anger, but we still have to talk about the business.

After lunch, Tang Wanning asked about Li Guiren.

Although Xia Houjue didn't bother to talk to her, but when he heard that Li Guiren was ill, his brows were also stained with sadness.

"She is the birth mother of the sixth brother, she is the queen's dowry when she enters the palace, and serves the queen together with Nanny Qi."

"One time, my father got drunk after a banquet and mistook her for a queen. We had a good night."

"Originally, this incident has passed and passed, and the emperor didn't take it to heart, and the queen said nothing."

"But suddenly one day, Li Guiren found out that she was pregnant. It had been eight months since she found out, and the fire could not be covered with paper. After some discussions between the father and the queen, Li Guiren had to be named a nobleman!"

"Since then, the queen has hated Li Guiren. After she gave birth to a child, she not only took her child away, but even tortured her in every possible way!"

Tang Wanning's eyes widened when she heard that.

"This is too ridiculous. Who can be pregnant for eight months before being found out? Is she a fool?"

Xia Houjue gave her a look of contempt: "What do you know!"

"Women are weak by nature, but mothers are strong. She didn't want to lose this child, so she tried her best to hide it, and she couldn't hide it until eight months later!"

"After all, he is the heir of the emperor, and the queen didn't dare to do anything, so the sixth brother survived!"

Tang Wanning sighed for a while, cold sweat broke out on her back.

It turns out that a woman risked her life to have a child, and there is such a meaning, tsk tsk tsk!

"So the queen thinks that Li Guiren betrayed her, so she has been torturing her?"

Xia Houjue nodded silently.

"Alas!" Tang Wanning let out a long sigh.

Thinking about it, according to the Queen's personality, she would not do things too outrageously on the surface, but in the dark she would definitely cause a lot of stumbling blocks.

Just look at Li Guiren's illnesses and where she lives.

"This is too cruel!" She couldn't help but sigh.

Xia Houjue's heart suddenly felt cold, are you cruel?He's used to it anyway.

He and his sixth brother share the same illness, and he is better off. With the status of the heir apparent, and the little guilt his father felt towards the queen mother, he is not wronged on the surface.

But the sixth brother, he is a dignified prince, but he can only be "focused on mountains and rivers, reciting poems and painting".

But if he has the slightest thoughts and limelight that he shouldn't have, I'm afraid their mother and son will die soon.

Tang Wanning was completely silent, and it took a while for her to breathe out slowly.

"Since this is the case, you can't help in the open, you can always help in the dark!"

"They are all poor people!"

What's more, Xia Houjing taught her how to practice archery back then, so it can be regarded as repaying his favor.

Xia Houjue didn't speak or object, obviously acquiescing.

Tang Wanning also had an idea in her heart, since she was close to the greenhouse, it was considered a cover.

……

The end of the year is approaching day by day.

The palace became more and more lively, and there were more and more busy palace people coming and going in the palace.

Tang Wanning thought this was an opportunity.

They found a good weather, took Biyue and Biluo to the greenhouse again.

At this time, there are people everywhere in the palace, who can notice who?
Li Guiren's small courtyard is still desolate.

Tang Wanning took Biyue and Biluo to give her medicinal materials, supplements, food, and cotton clothes.

These objects, large and small, were all packed in the flower pot box that Tang Wanning carried with her.

She's here to pick flowers, and it's just a good way to deceive people with these.

"Thank you, princess, concubine, your great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten!" Ah Fu knelt on the ground loyally and expressed his gratitude.

Li Guiren was lying on the bed extremely weak: "Thank you a lot!"

"Needless to say!" Tang Wanning sat on the edge of the bed generously.

"I will come to see you again in the future. These medicines are all prescribed by the imperial physician according to your pulse rate. Take it on time, and your illness will be cured in spring!"

As she spoke, she took out a large handful of banknotes from her bosom.

"These are the prince's thoughts, you are a good mother, you must be good!"

Li Guiren wanted to refuse, but Tang Wanning stuffed it under her pillow.

"You don't have to refuse, you can't do embroidery work now, these are used first"

"It's getting late, I can't stay long, you can do it yourself!"

Tang Wanning stood up, gave Li Guiren a junior salute, and led them away.

Li Guiren never said a word of thanks, only tears kept rolling in his eyes.

"Prince... this child!"

……

Coming out of the small courtyard, Tang Wanning met Xia Houjing both unexpectedly and logically.

After not seeing him for many days, his footsteps seem to be much quieter again, and his demeanor looks more comfortable.

"It's you?"

"Meet the third sister-in-law!" Xia Houjing was not surprised, A Fu had already told him.

Tang Wanning was a little embarrassed.

It's always a bit embarrassing to visit someone's old lady and happen to be met by someone's son.

"Your Highness the Sixth Highness is here to visit Li Guiren. I just happen to have something else to do. Please go ahead, Your Highness!"

As he said that, he was about to leave in a hurry.

But Xia Houjing stopped her and bowed deeply.

"Thank you, sister-in-law San, for your kindness, Jing will never forget it!"

"Your Highness is serious!"

"I also met by chance. It's freezing cold, no one can do nothing!" Tang Wanning found a perfect excuse for herself.

Xia Houjing froze for a moment, then smiled.

"Third sister-in-law has good intentions."

"Since the third sister-in-law still has something to do, it's inconvenient for Jing to disturb you, please!"

"Ok!"

Tang Wanning nodded and left with a decent smile.

Xia Houjing stood in the snow and looked at her back, the gratitude in his heart could not be calmed down for a long time.

In this long and deep palace, after all, there are only third brother and her.
