Two hundred and fifty two night cry
Xie Ning was sleeping in a daze.
She has not slept soundly these days. She didn't even dare to drink too much water before going to bed, for fear that she would sleep even less steadily if she drank too much water.
But even if she drinks less water, she will still wake up at night.
Xie Ning woke up a little confused, not knowing when it was time. There were lights and candles on the outside of the tent. She felt a little palpitations, and she took a few breaths before opening her eyes again.
The tent was brought out of the palace. Even when Fang Shanggong encountered the major incident of a fire on the boat that night, he was still calm and unrestless. After arriving at the inn, he was well organized and did not even forget to change the tent.
As soon as Xie Ning moved, Qinghe woke up at night outside.
This time the master was pregnant, Qinghe and the others were particularly careful, afraid of something going wrong. At night, in order to be afraid of falling asleep, they didn't dare to lie down at all, so they sat down and leaned back and took a nap. However, in order to be afraid that their legs would not be able to hang so hard, they found a round stool to put the stent on it and put a thick cotton cloak on it.
The chair was narrow and the round stool was not stable. Xie Ning was worried when he saw them going tonight like this, but no matter how she said that Qinghe and the others were unwilling to change it.
Who doesn’t know how comfortable it is to lie down? But since you are just a chore to serve others, don’t think about the word “comfort”. The master is uncomfortable now, so where is their turn to enjoy it?
This position is very light when taking a nap, and you can wake up with a little movement.
Qinghe took off her cloak and walked quickly to the bed: "Master is awake? Are you thirsty?"
Xie Ning shook his head and said softly: "When is it?"
Qinghe quickly turned her head and took a look, saying, "It's the third update."
"I heard something happening outside."
Qinghe was startled and said calmly: "I didn't hear anything. It's so late, so how could anyone walk around outside."
Definitely not.
Qinghe thought that it would be impossible if someone could slip into the master's yard under such a heavy guard. Anyway, living people would definitely not have such ability, unless they were haunted.
Qinghe has never believed in these things.
"Maybe I heard it wrong."
Qinghe still poured half a cup of warm water and handed it to Xie Ning. Xie Ning only took a small sip to moisten his throat slightly, and did not dare to drink too much.
Qinghe helped her lie down again and asked softly: "Do you feel uncomfortable in your body? I will give you a pound? "
Xie Ning said: "You should go and rest, go to the outside couch to sleep, and stop sitting on the stool."
"I am not tired." Qinghe said: "When there is Fang Shang Palace during the day and when others serve the master, I can take a break to make up for my sleep."
But Xie Ning still couldn't sleep after lying down.
This time, even Qinghe heard the sound.
The second prince was crying.
Only children will make such noise at night without restraint.
Qinghe quickly put on a shirt and said, "Master, I will take a look."
Qinghe left the house and walked east quickly. The second prince also lived in this yard, but Princess Yuyao could not live there. After all, the yard of the inn was not spacious enough.
The wet nurse was holding the second prince and stroking him anxiously, but the second prince's eyes were closed tightly, his mouth was open and he kept crying, and his face was red.
When the wet nurse came in, she became even more panicked.
Qinghe knew when she saw this situation, she knew that it was probably not just a short time since she cried, otherwise her face wouldn't have been so red. When she was anxious, her tone became heavier: "What's wrong with Your Highness?"
The wet nurse was a little panicked: "Your Highness may be a nightmare. I heard your highness move just now and wanted to hold him up and pee, but your Highness didn't urinate, so she suddenly started crying."
The wet nurse thought about all the tricks just now, patting, coaxing, humming songs, and trying to untidy the clothes to see if the second prince had something to eat to be coaxed. But the second prince didn't even eat, and was crying.
Qinghe stomped her feet: "You hand it to me and try."
The wet nurse had no choice but to hand over the second prince to Qinghe.
But the second prince only paused for a brief moment when they changed hands. After being hugged by Qinghe, he still cried.
The other palace people in the house were at a loss. His Highness cried for no reason, who knew if he suddenly felt uncomfortable?
Children are no better than adults. If an adult suddenly develops an acute illness, he will always say where he is uncomfortable. But the child is uncomfortable, but he will not say that.
Qinghe was sweating coldly and was very anxious: "Mom Song, please hold Your Highness, and I'll ask someone to invite Li Shuling to come."
Qingmei also came over in a hurry. She didn't even have time to come in, so she stood at the door and said, "Sister Qinghe, Master, let me carry Your Highness over."
The wet nurse could only carry the second prince to go with Qingmei. Xie Ning was already wearing a jacket, but she was still sitting on the bed and did not get up. When the wet nurse came in with the second prince in, Xie Ning hurriedly owed her to get up and reached out to hug her son.
The wet nurse didn't dare to hand the child to the imperial concubine like this, but just took two steps forward and handed the child to the imperial concubine, but she didn't dare to let go.
"Your Highness, Your Highness?"
Xie Ning reached out and grabbed the second prince's tight fist: "Hong'er? Hong'er?"
I don’t know if it was because I heard my mother’s voice, the second prince’s head moved and his crying stopped.
"Did Hong'er have a nightmare? Are you scared?" Xie Ning whispered to him, wrapping his little fist in his palm: "I'm here, don't be afraid, don't cry."
The second prince's cry turned into a sob and sobbing softly.
The wet nurse was relieved.
It's not a disease.
In fact, the people are less than one year old, and there are many children who are scared and crying at night, but the second prince has never been like this before. Moreover, his identities are different. The wet nurse just was so anxious that she didn't know how many terrible things she thought of.
She wondered, would your highness suddenly have some emergency? Where did you cry because you couldn't stand the pain?
She even wondered, was someone plotting against His Highness? For example, poisoning it or doing something else?
She even thought of things about gods and ghosts.
It turned out that there was another Wang family serving His Highness with her, but Wang family was shot to death by an arrow on the night of the fire a few night ago, and his body fell into the river. Later, I heard that her body had been salvaged.
Could it be that she was still worried about the second prince and was reluctant to leave and entangled with the second prince?
Now when I see the second prince coming to the imperial concubine, I feel at peace and honest. The wet nurse is really relieved and sad.
I am relieved that the little master is fine and I will not be held accountable or blamed.
What’s sad is that although they are carefully serving each other every day, they are afraid that there is something inappropriate. But the little master is still closer to his own mother. They are just servants after all, and they are not a big deal.
Xie Ning ordered Qinghe, "Pour some warm water, then twist a hand towel to warm up."
Qinghe hurried to prepare.
Xie Ning took the half small cup of water and slowly fed it to the second prince for drink.
Eighty times, I screamed for a long time, and I felt thirsty. The second prince drank very urgently as soon as the lips were stained with water.
"Don't hurry, drink slowly, be careful to choke."
The hot towel was also twisted and the water was taken over. Xie Ning wiped the second prince's face and hand, changed into a towel, and wiped his neck and armpits for him.
The child cried hard, making him sweat all over. If he didn't wipe it clean, he would be uncomfortable and would easily catch a cold.
After wiping, I changed into new clothes.
The second prince was humming when he was being changed, his eyes opened a crack. Eighty-mostly, he saw that the person in front of him was not someone else but his biological mother, so he didn't struggle and let her change it obediently.
After all the troubles, the little ancestor spread his hands and fell asleep again on his own.
Xie Ning was relieved at this moment and looked at the others in the room.
The culprit went to bed, and all their sleepiness flew away.
"You guys go back and rest too, don't move him around, don't turn back and make trouble again." Xie Ning said: "Let him sleep here."
Qinghe responded and quickly served Xie Ning and rested.
When his son was lying beside him, Xie Ning felt at ease. Seeing his hands and feet moving, he reached out and patted him twice, and the second prince became honest again.
Xie Ning looked at him with his head tilted.
It is probably because she was frightened, right? Some people always say that children are unstable and easily frightened. My aunt used to go to the temple to burn incense and ask for talismans for Xie Ning, but she had a fever for several days. She asked for a talisman to come back and hung it on the head of the bed, saying that it could suppress evil spirits.
Xie Ning didn't know if the talisman she asked for was useful, or maybe the medicine she took finally came into effect, so the disease quickly recovered from then on.
The second prince also has things like peace talismans and longevity locks.
Fang Shanggong might take out these tomorrow and wear them for him to wear.
Xie Ning always feels that these may not be useful.
It’s not that she doesn’t believe in it or respects gods and Buddhas, but that she thinks that people are always too utilitarian. When they are fine, they can’t remember gods and Buddhas, and they have to catch up with things every time before they go to pray. This is a typical example of “not burning incense in normal times, but cramming Buddhas at the moment.”
Xie Ning used to think that people would go to worship Buddha like shopping in shops. People had a variety of needs, including those who wanted peace, those who wanted future, those who wanted children... Then they took out more or less money for incense, kowtowed a few heads, burned a stick of incense, and finally bought a talisman, a signature, or something like that, and thought they were very honest.
"Your father is not here... do you miss him too?" Xie Ning said to him softly: "Fang Shanggong said that your father is the true dragon emperor, and no villain dares to approach him. So when he is here, we don't have to be afraid of anything."
The emperor is probably coming back soon?
Xie Ning felt very conflicted.
While she was hoping that the emperor would come back early and then they could go back to Beijing together. After all, the inn was not their own place, and she felt uneasy when she lived.
On the other hand, she felt that the emperor's itinerary was too hurrying and was afraid that he would not be able to bear it.
"Sleep, sleep well." Xie Ning whispered to coax his son, as if to say to himself: "The emperor is coming back soon, and we are going back to Beijing. Don't be afraid, we don't have to be afraid of anything."
