Fang Shanggong raised his head in surprise: "Princess went to Changning Hall" Qinghe nodded slightly.
Fang Shanggong didn't ask any more questions.
He just pondered for a while and said, "I understand."
After Qing He left, Fang Shanggong couldn't focus on the work at hand.
She hung up the half-picked thread in her hand and walked slowly to the window.
It was almost evening, and the sky was overcast.
Without a lamp, the room would have been dark.
Looking out the window, you can see several palace ladies passing by the corridor at the other end of the courtyard.
They are wearing green palace clothes and have the same hair style.
Even the lightness of their steps seems to be different.
They are holding boxes in their hands.
The object passed through the corridor lightly and calmly, disappearing from the sight of Fang Shang Palace.
A drop of rain fell.
Fang Shanggong looked up and saw two swallows flying past in the dark sky, probably rushing back to their nests because of the rain.
Fang Shanggong looked at the direction in which the two swallows were flying and was slightly lost in thought.
In such weather, birds generally won't come out to look for food.
Whether the weather is cloudy or sunny, birds are much better informed than humans.
But counting the days, the swallows came in spring, built nests, settled down, and multiplied.
Now there must be more than one mouth in the nest to eat.
To raise chicks, you have to fly out in the rain to find food even in such weather.
Whether it's a human being or a bird, it's all the same.
Xie Ning held Xia Yue and Xia Hong's hands, slowly moved out of the palace door, and paced back and forth in the corridor.
Hu Rongzheng led the two young eunuchs to light the lanterns in the corridor one by one.
Seeing Xie Ning coming, the two young eunuchs quickly moved aside and knelt down to salute.
Xie Ning signaled them to just do their own work.
Hu Rong was fine, but the two young eunuchs were walking on thin ice with fear.
When Xia Hong saw that they had hung up a lamp several times without putting it back, she couldn't bear it any longer.
She rolled up her sleeves and said, "Get up and turn it on.
I'll do it."
Look at the two little eunuchs fighting with each other, just like two quails frightened by the thunder outside.
Xia Hong carried the lantern on a long pole and hung it up.
Xie Ning sat on the round stool beside the railing, raising his head slightly and watching her work.
The shadow of the lamp swayed, reflecting the rain outside the cloister like light silver threads, dragging out blurry afterimages in the eyes.
Xia Hong hung up the lamps closest to Xie Ning, then handed the long pole back to Hu Rong, and said with a smile: "Okay, you can do the rest by yourselves."
Hu Rong smiled and said, "Thank you, sister.
I'll treat you to tea later."
In fact, the two young eunuchs were either clumsy or timid in front of the imperial concubine.
When they went to hang the lanterns at the other end of the corridor, they became deft and steady again.
When the emperor was far away, he saw Xie Ning sitting by the railing of the corridor, looking up at the rain curtain outside.
The dim yellow light from the lantern overhead fell on her body.
Xie Ning leaned against the pillar, narrowed his eyes slightly, and used one hand to protect his increasingly heavy belly.
There is an intoxicating tranquility on her face.
Looking at her like this, you can feel that her thoughts are not actually in this place, but in a more distant and quiet place.
The emperor stood at one end of the corridor and looked at her quietly until Xie Ning noticed his arrival and turned his head with a gentle smile.
"Why are you sitting here?"

Xie Ning stood up slowly while holding his hand, and couldn't help but glance behind the emperor: "Yu Yao"
Princess Yuyao slowly poked her head out from behind the emperor.
It could be seen that she had washed her face, combed her hair, and changed her clothes in the long time since she had been out.
None of this could hide her swollen eyes and red nose.
Yuyao slowly walked over and snuggled next to Xie Ning.
Because Xie Ning was close to giving birth, Princess Yuyao felt frightened when she looked at her belly.
She was afraid that the big watermelon-like belly would burst if she touched her, so she was careful every time she touched Xie Ning.
She cried heartily and hard in the afternoon, and now she was in a trance, dazed, and didn't even have the strength to say a word.
Even now her steps seemed weak and feeble, as if she was stepping on a pile of cotton.
Xie Ning glanced at the emperor, then lowered his head to look at Yuyao.
It seemed that no one was going to tell her what was going on for a while.
Xie Ning asked Yuyao softly: "Dinner dinner is still half an hour away.
Are you hungry now?
What do you want to eat?"
Princess Yuyao thought for a while: "Lotus seed soup."
Her voice was hoarse and her voice was low.
If you didn't pay attention carefully, you wouldn't be able to hear what she said.
"Lotus seed soup is good.
I think it's ready in the kitchen."
Princess Yuyao also added: "Not ice, but warm."
Xie Ning responded: "Okay, it needs to be hot."
The emperor followed them into the palace gate: "Ask them to bring an extra bowl, I want to eat it too."
In such weather, it is assumed that most people who eat hot food will soak their food and fruits in well water before eating them, even if they cannot afford ice.
Princess Yuyao is usually afraid of heat.
She is afraid that her stomach will not be able to handle it at her young age, so she does not dare to let her eat anything with ice.
Today, she changed her temper and wanted to eat hot soup.
This made Xie Ning feel happy at the same time, but also felt strange at the same time.
She knew that Princess Yuyao went to Changning Hall, but Xie Ning could only vaguely guess what she said to the emperor and his daughter.
Lotus seed soup was delivered quickly, one bowl per person.
Princess Yuyao washed her hands and didn't need anyone to feed her.
She held the bowl and drank while blowing.
As soon as I swallowed the sweet and hot lotus seed soup, the sweat on my body was forced out by the hot soup.
But Yuyao, who usually didn't want to take a bite of hot food, seemed not to be afraid of the heat at all now.
She swallowed one mouthful after another.
The beads of sweat flowed down from the top and gathered on the tip of her nose and chin, turning into big sweat.
Big crystal beads of sweat.
Xie Ning wiped her sweat carefully and whispered: "Eat slowly and don't choke.
Just eat a few mouthfuls and rest your head first.
If you eat too much, you won't eat dinner later."
The emperor enjoyed a bowl of lotus seed soup, which he usually didn't like very much.
The lotus seed soup was sweet, glutinous and sticky, and the emperor never touched it, whether it was hot or cold.
But when I ate such a bowl of sweet soup, I felt that the hot soup sliding down my stomach quickly warmed my empty and hungry stomach, and also made up for the mental energy consumed by facing Princess Yuyao in the past half day.
Xie Ning also ate half a bowl along with him.
She doesn't eat much now and her belly is too heavy.
As the delivery date approaches, she will inevitably feel a little panicked.

I couldn't sleep well at night, firstly because of the heat, and secondly because I felt heavy and flustered.
During the day, she couldn't eat well, and her appetite and appetite became very poor.
Fortunately, she had a calm mind and did not feel anxious all day long.
After a bowl of lotus seed soup, Princess Yuyao felt much better
