friend of women

Lin Nianling has been so busy lately that she has no time to pay attention to the two men who came by force. Seriously, it should be regarded as force one get one free.

After the last ceremony, Tao Tao suddenly contracted a cold and was bedridden. The Tao family and his wife were so anxious that they drove the doctors of the Imperial Hospital crazy.

The prince was even more worried and eager, and ran to Tao's house so many times, even the always dull emperor had noticed the signs, and tried again and again to see if the prince liked the daughter of the Taifu's family. The aristocratic family in the capital, who had shown good intentions, now avoids the Tao family's marriage.

Now the emperor doesn't have many heirs, and he doesn't know whether it's because the ancestors did too many things that harmed the morality or what.Only the prince born to the empress, a princess born to Concubine Xia, and Chu Yunlian, born to the deceased Concubine Wei, gave birth to heirs in the huge harem.

According to the Queen's attitude of wanting to raise Chu Yun and the emperor's attitude that he didn't care about the third prince at all, and even exiled him to the frontier, the prince will be the one who will inherit the rule in the future.

For a moment, the aristocratic family in the capital was surprised and envious of the Tao family.

If the crown prince really fell in love with the daughter of the Tao family, then Tao Tuo would be the mother of a country in the future, above ten thousand people.

Although Tao Yanshu is a speech officer, he is deeply trusted by the emperor, and his wife is the only daughter of the elders of the three dynasties. The Lin family has been running until now. It is well known that the group of Mrs. Tao's natal family has a violent temper and loves others.

Not long after Lin Nianling got married, her husband passed away and let her take care of her. Uncle Tao Tao was very guilty of this, and kept blaming himself for harming his daughter, so much so that now he is blindly protecting Lin Nianling no matter what bastard she is. Dare to say a word is wrong, the next morning he can lead someone to smash your door down.

As the youngest daughter in the family like Tao Tao, it can be said that she has received all kinds of favors. The power behind her family can be said to occupy most of the imperial court in secret. It is no exaggeration. Those who showed good intentions to the Tao family before Everyone has taken a fancy to this hot-buttoned power.

If the crown prince really married a daughter of the Tao family, from this point of view, it would be icing on the cake not only for the crown prince but also for the Tao family.

"How is Tao Tao better?" Lin Nianling hurried to Tao Mansion with bags of medicinal materials. She has been running around for the past few days, but Tao Puo's illness is so strange that she wonders if someone secretly harmed her. .

"I still have a high fever, and it doesn't get better after taking medicine. I'm in a daze and don't know what to say!" Mrs. Tao's mouth was bubbling anxiously, and there were a few wrinkles around her eyes.

"What did the doctor say?" Lin Nianling glanced around and grabbed Mrs. Tao, suddenly lowered her voice.

Mrs. Tao shook her head lightly: "No..."

"Then why did you suddenly fall ill!" Lin Nianling was a little helpless. She watched Tao Tuo grow up, so she naturally loved her no less than Tao's couple.

The two talked while walking, and before entering the room, they could see the corners of the bright yellow clothes exposed in the room.

Lin Nianling hissed coldly: "Tsk...why is he here?"

Mrs. Tao's eyes were also a bit complicated: "The prince has found many excuses to visit Ah Tao in the past few days, but he couldn't drive him away, and he just let him go if nothing happened!"

"Has the boy from the Wei family visited Tao Tao?"

Mrs. Tao's expression softened when she heard Wei Yang's name: "Wei Yang is a caring boy, and he hasn't seen A Tao less these days, and now he is going to find a doctor with your uncle!"

Lin Nianling was slightly startled: "Doctor? Which one? Didn't you search all the hospitals?"

Mrs. Tao: "It's Dr. Gao who retired from the Imperial Hospital a few years ago. He lives in Jiangnan. Your uncle and Wei Yang are going there to invite him back to Beijing!"

Lin Nianling: "Oh! Is that the old man of the Gao family who has practiced medicine for generations?"

Mrs. Tao sighed: "Yes, it's him! Fortunately, my family still has some friendship with him, and your uncle has already taken my name card to visit him!"

Before Lin Nianling could speak, Madam Tao, who had never believed in gods and Buddhas, sighed sadly, "Do you think I should go to burn incense and worship Buddha? I heard that the temple in the south of the city is quite spiritual!"

Lin Nianling suddenly thought of the man who claimed to be a fortune teller that day when he was reminded, and was a little dazed for a while.

"Nian Ling, what are you thinking about?"

"Ah? It's nothing..."

"Then you say I'm going to say goodbye?"

Lin Nianling replied a little indifferently: "Auntie, don't think about what you have, let's talk about it when Imperial Physician Gao comes!"

At this time, Tao Tao in the room was vaguely thinking about the night when she died.

Wei Yang gave her her immediate gift early on. Although he knew it was unlikely, Tao Tao tentatively asked him if there was anything else he hadn't given.

Wei Yang grinned, spread his hands and said calmly, "No more!"

"Really?" Tao Tao's smile gradually disappeared, showing a little disappointment.

Seeing this, Wei Yang suppressed his words in his heart and forcibly refrained from saying: "Okay, hurry up and go back to rest! That boy Chu San is far away in the border area, and there has been some unrest there recently. Xiao Tao, don't blame him, maybe he It will appear in your dreams tonight!"

Tao Tao forced a smile: "It's okay, he can take care of himself on the border!"

Wei Yang sighed inaudibly and waved his hands: "Okay, then I have to go, lest Aunt Tao beat me to death with a stick! I hope you can see Chu San in your dreams, remember to beat him up to calm down I have wronged myself!"

Tao Tao smiled helplessly, she is so grown up, even if she is dreaming, it is difficult to dream that Chu Yunlian is gone!

I thought this was just Wei Yang's joke, but Tao Tao really dreamed of Chu San in the middle of the night.

He is dressed in dust and dust, as if he has been on the road, his hair has become messy, and a blue beard has appeared on his chin, only those eyes are clear and peaceful looking at you as usual.

"Why did I dream of you?" Tao Tao rubbed her eyes and looked at the person sitting beside her bed, as if she couldn't believe it, then reached out and gently touched Chu Yunlian's face.

"Ah Tao, it's me!"

Tao Tao was a little confused and said: "I know it's you, Chu Yunlian, what are you doing in my dream! You didn't come to see me before I arrived, and now you are disturbing my dream!"

Chu Yunlian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Ah Tao, open your eyes and look at me!"

Tao Tao: "Keep it open! But it's useless to look at you, anyway, it's just a dream, and it will be gone the next day!"

Chu Yunlian couldn't react, he had to work so hard to sneak back, he drove non-stop for so many days, but he ended up like this.

Chu San covered Ah Tao's quilt and watched her fall asleep again, the dark light in her eyes flowed and she reached out to pinch Tao Tao's cheek until the person beside the bed cried out for pain and opened her eyes.

"It hurts...it hurts!" Tao Tuo woke up a little at this moment, and looked at Chu San beside her with a clear head.

"You know it hurts and you still call it a dream?" Chu Yunlian narrowed his eyes and smiled at Tao Tao.

"You...you...why are you here?" Tao Tao widened her eyes and looked at Chu San in a sleepy state.

"Don't you dislike me for not coming to your ceremony?"

"You are crazy! You are disobeying the imperial order. If the emperor and prince find out, they will trouble you again?"

Chu Yunlian looked at the worried little girl, stroked her hair and smiled lightly: "Don't be nervous, I sneaked back from the frontier after I got ready, don't worry! Put your clothes on quickly, I'll take you Go somewhere!"

Although listening to Chu San's explanation, Tao Tao was still a little worried: "Where are you going?"

"Why do you ask so many questions? Little girl is getting older and harder to coax, get dressed quickly!" Chu Yunlian calmly turned behind the screen and waited for Tao Tao to get dressed.

Tao Tao stuck out her tongue or changed her clothes and followed Chu Yun out.

Originally there was an old city wall left by the previous dynasty in the capital city, but it was dilapidated after a long period of disrepair. It was dark and windy at night and there were often scary rumors, so people in the capital city did not approach this side at all.

Only Tao Tuo and Chu Yunlian knew that this old city wall, once known as the tallest in Beijing, was a very good place to enjoy the moon.

Chu Yunlian hugged Tao Tao and flew up easily, but somehow conjured up a small jug of wine and compared to her: "Would you like to try?"

Tao Tao took it over and took a sip, gasped for air, stuck out her tongue and returned it.

"Why is this wine so spicy!"

Chu Yunlian was amused by her appearance: "It's cold on the frontier, and the soldiers are counting on this wine to keep them warm!"

"Oh, by the way, how are you doing over there? Did someone bully you?" Tao Tao knew that Chu Yunlian had been in poor health since he was a child, and was worried that the prince's gang would secretly trip him up.

"What are you worrying about? Except for the colder climate on the frontier, the people are honest, and they don't have many evil intentions!"

"That's good, I... I'm afraid of the people in the capital..." Tao Tao choked out a few words slowly.

"Chi..." Chu Yunlian bent his eyes and touched Tao Tao's head, then took off his cloak and put it on her body.

Let's not talk about this, where is my present? Tao Tao stretched out her hand as if begging for it.

Chu Yunlian glanced subconsciously at Tao Tao's bun, seeing that nothing had been inserted into it, and her black hair was as beautiful as a cloud, so she was relieved, and took out a wooden box from her bosom.

Tao Tao took it and opened it. Inside was a white jade hairpin. It was warm and cool to the touch and felt like good jade. The cloud pattern embroidered on it was a bit rough, but it looked different and interesting.

"This hairpin is unique!"

"I made it from the jade I found myself. It's probably not as good as Zhenbaozhai!" Chu Yunlian was a little embarrassed. He was good at everything, but he carved this thing, and he carved a lot of jade materials back and forth. into this one.

"I like it very much! How did you know that I lack a hairpin? Quickly put it on for me!" Tao Tao looked at Chu Yunlian with joy, and the smile in her eyes could not be faked.

Chu Yunlian was a little stunned by the look, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses: "Okay!"

The girl's hair was soft and silky, and it took Chu Yun a long time to pull the hairpin back into shape.

"Does it look good?"

"nice!"

Looking at the beauty under the lamp is undoubtedly similar to that under the moon. Tao Tuo is born bright and beautiful, and the moonlight shines so beautifully that Chu Yunlian can't open his eyes.

"I heard from Wei Yang that the frontier has not been peaceful recently, so you must be careful!" Tao Tao raised her head and asked in embarrassment.

"Hmm!" Chu Yunlian replied a little indifferently, it was only a matter of his words that it was too unfair.

"Tao grape..."

"Huh?" Tao Tao turned her head.

"Can you………"

"what?"

Before Chu Yunlian could answer, Tao Tao saw Chu Yunlian's figure gradually faded and disappeared, and then there was darkness in front of his eyes, as if he was in a dream.
