    Pinwei looked at the top of the bed tent in ecstasy.  The lines of the water curtain embroidered out the distant mountains and clear edges of the horizon.  He finally asked: "A-Liang, have you ever thought about being with the emperor in the future?"

    Wei Liangyi was silent for a long time, and then sighed softly: "I was not sensible when I was a child. Amma often hugged me and said that Xiao Liang'er would be a princess and a first-class wife in the future. She also specially invited her husband to come to my home to teach me piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.  Those ones."

    "Eniang never refutes Ama's words in person, but she doesn't agree in her heart. She stares at me practicing my needlework diligently. She secretly told me that as long as a good son marries a small family, his husband will treat you wholeheartedly. Yes.  I have a village or a shop next to me. Just live a peaceful life. My mother only gave birth to a girl, and I know she really has plans for me."

    "It's a pity that my mother is not in good health and has been sick all year round. At that time, my family was not considered wealthy. Amma had already taken a concubine and a wife, and raised a brother from a concubine. But Amma still has something in me.  She is a thoughtful person, and she is the eldest daughter, so I am considered favored in the family."

    "Then those things seemed to be like a dream. They changed overnight. Amma was convicted and imprisoned. Officials came to ransack the house to make amends. E Niang left in a rage and there was no funeral. Auntie  He said he wanted to pawn his house and house to raise money, but instead he took the money and ran away with his brother. My wet nurse and I sold the few jewelry we had and cried over E Niang's cold coffin before she was considered dead.  Buried."

    "The wet nurse wanted to take me back to my hometown, but my uncle came here at this moment. I only stayed at my uncle's house for two months, and then I went to the palace and became a rough servant maid in the name of confiscation."  When Wei Liangyi thought of this, she couldn't help but shed tears from the corners of her eyes. She felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't express it, because she later found out that she had entered the palace in her cousin's name.  Because my uncle's family is also a little involved.

    Wei Liangyi didn¡¯t wipe his tears either.  Let those tears dry slowly, and the voice still said calmly: "At that time, the work on the shoulders was very heavy. Not only did I have to carry water every day, my shoulders were also red and swollen. I had to wash a lot of clothes from morning to night, and I had to wash them non-stop.  After drying, ironing, and folding, I was so tired at night that I just wanted to fall asleep. The well water in winter was icy and cold. My hands and feet were so cold that I couldn¡¯t feel it, but I still kept washing and living hard. I had no time to think about the future.  Something?"

    "One day, the sewing room of Shanggong Bureau was short of manpower. I came to the Clothing Bureau temporarily and asked a quick and agile palace maid to help iron the clothes. I waited on her carefully when I went there, and also helped to separate the thread and thread the needle." Then.  After being taken aback by Huang Yanqi, he was transferred to the sewing room to work.  Maybe others think that spending all day embroidering in the sewing room is a miserable life, but I felt like a god at that time. I had food and drink to eat and drink, and I didn¡¯t have to waste my energy. As long as I embroidered the flowers and mended my clothes carefully, I didn¡¯t have to worry about the future.  , just take it one day at a time.  "

    Kangxi felt like he was feeling needle-pricked in his heart when he heard this. He was not willing to wash clothes when there were washing machines in modern times, not to mention that in ancient times it was all manual labor.  The fate of those palace maids in coats is actually quite unlikeable.  In the north where it snows in winter, almost all women have hunched shoulders, swollen and thick fingers like radishes, and look as old as an old woman in her fifties or sixties, but she is actually only twenty or thirty years old.

    Kangxi turned sideways and hugged Wei Liangyi tightly in his arms, stroked her hair and said against her ear.  "A Liang. Don't be sad. I won't let you suffer again in the future."

    Wei Liangyi lay on Kangxi's shoulder, but did not cry. He told Kangxi seriously and clearly: "Your Majesty, A-Liang is just a slave. A-Liang is not afraid of hardship, but "I am afraid, I dare not give birth to a child."  You, please let me take medicine. I am afraid of having children in the future.  He will be taken away.  "

    After Wei Liangyi finished speaking, he didn't say anything anymore, and just lay quietly on Kangxi's shoulder. Kangxi's heart felt like a big stone was pressing on him, and he was so stuffy that he could hardly breathe, but waves of dampness and heat came from his shoulders.  He knew she must be crying her heart out.

    Kangxi kissed Wei Liangyi gently on the temples.  After suppressing it for a long time, he said: "A-Liang, don't be afraid, I understand what you are thinking. I originally wanted to give you a promise. But the grade of the promise is too low. According to the rules of the palace, you cannot raise children by yourself, so  I have never officially banned you, and I still want you to be an ordinary palace maid. I also want to let you stay with me for a while. "

    Kangxi was silent for a while and then continued, "Actually, I once had a dream. At that time, I was not an emperor. I was just a very ordinary man. I wanted to buy a big house and marry someone who was gentle and virtuous.  Wife. I will give birth to a cute and smart child with her. Whether it is a boy or a girl, after they are brought up to be independent, my wife and I will grow old and we will depend on each other. We will plant flowers in the garden.  Don¡¯t worry, raise a puppy, and go to beautiful places to see the scenery in your free time.¡±

    "I thought that the situation of "a pair of people for a lifetime" holding hands and promising each other for a lifetime is actually??My lifelong dream.  It's a pity that I didn't expect that now would be a day when I would be in charge of the world and have endless palaces. I couldn't help myself with many things. Some of the things I really wanted to do, but I was afraid of causing harm to you.  "

    Kangxi listened solemnly to Wei Liangyi's ear.  He said word by word: "A Liang, I can give you a chance to choose. If, when you are pregnant, I can find a way to send you out of the palace and live in the palace outside. There are fields and small shops there.  , and that child, he will always be by your side and grow up to be an adult.  But Aliang, once you choose to leave the palace, then this child may not be able to return to the palace in the future.  do you understand?"

    In the dark night, Wei Liangyi's beautiful eyes suddenly opened wide, and the words "Yi Chu Gong Pi" were so respectable and awe-inspiring!  There used to be so many young palace ladies who had to wait until their hair turned gray and their minds were haggard before they could wait for the palace release.  What's more, those women who were favored by the emperor for a night would never be free even if they died of old age in the cold palace.

    However, the emperor said it himself just now. He said that he would let her go and let her live a free life in the imperial palace, just like the life of a small family as E Niang said.  Kangxi personally promised Wei Liangyi an opportunity to choose freely.  Will she stay or leave?  Would she choose to have her eighth prince be born outside the Forbidden City?
