"Your Majesty still doesn't understand the Empress Dowager's temperament? She was spoiled by the late Emperor and His Majesty. She's such a grown-up person that she still looks like a child. No, in this weather, she went fishing in Taiye Pond again. "Nurse Xu laughed.
Emperor Long'an looked outside, and ordered several times, "Come here, send some basins of ice to the queen mother. Send a few more people to fan the queen mother, so as not to get heatstroke."
Grandma Xu stood beside her, smiling and shaking her head, "You, don't worry about it, you don't know the Queen Mother's temperament, how can she settle down to fish. Maybe she will turn to another place in a while went."
"That has to be taken care of. The state affairs are busy these days, and when I finish this book, I will accompany my mother to the palace to escape the summer heat." Emperor Long'an smiled, as long as the mother is not angry.
After Madam Xu left, Emperor Long'an ate the snacks Madam Xu brought while reviewing the memorial.
Suddenly, the eunuch who went to deliver ice to the Queen Mother came back and reported, "If you go back to Your Majesty, the Queen Mother and the prince caught some fish and said they want to grill the fish, so that Your Majesty can try it when you have time."
Emperor Long'an smiled and said: "Oh? Is the queen mother so elegant? I will go right away." After speaking, he put down the vermilion pen, washed his hands, and went.
Beside Taiye Pool, there is a gentle breeze, sparkling light, and the scenery is picturesque. It's just that there is a place full of fireworks, which is a bit unpleasant.
"Queen, can you make it? Why don't you let the nuns come! Don't burn the fish!" Zhao Defang, the ten-year-old Prince Bao, complained. In the early years, the empress mother also cooked on a whim, but the result was a black ball, and neither he nor his father and brother dared to use chopsticks. In the end, the father had the guts to eat a chopstick, and then he suffered from abdominal pain. Fortunately, the imperial physician was skilled in medicine, and after a few needles, he was cured. For this reason, the queen mother also received the eyes of the emperor's grandmother for a few days.
"You can come here!" Li Su glared at him, "You are still my son, believe it or not, no matter how I bake it, your brother will definitely say it is delicious when he comes later."
Zhao Defang rolled her eyes, "When did the emperor say you are bad!"
Li Su patted him on the head, "It's good that you know, you are not as filial as your imperial brother! Filial piety is filial piety, obedience is filial piety, do you understand?"
"I don't understand!" Zhao Defang laughed.
Emperor Long'an saw this from afar, with a smile on his lips, got off the sedan chair, and strode forward. "Mother, Defang..." The next words turned into a dumbfounding expression after seeing Li Su's face, "Mother, with your face... how do you serve me? Hurry up and fetch water."
Face, what's wrong with your face? Li Su wiped his face subconsciously, but his face turned darker.
When Emperor Long'an and Zhao Defang met, they couldn't help laughing.
Li Su didn't know what to do, but when he saw his pitch-black hands, he was startled, "Quick, get some water."
The maids hurriedly brought hot water, Madam Xu suppressed a smile, and waited for Li Su to wash his hands and face, Li Su looked at the mirror carefully, and finally felt relieved.
Looking at the grill and the pitch-black fish, Li Su lost his mood, "Take it all away!"
Upon seeing this, Emperor Long'an hurriedly said: "Mother, sit down for a while, and my son will grill fish for you."
"The emperor's brother can grill fish?" Zhao Defang leaned over and said, "Your brother also wants to."
Emperor Long'an had already rolled up his sleeves and sat in front of the grill, busy, "Mother, please wait a moment, it will be ready soon."
Li Su sat down next to him, drinking tea and nibbling melon seeds, and gave blind instructions from time to time, "Turn it over, if it gets mushy, sprinkle some cumin."
Zhao Defang looked at the posture of the emperor's brother, who seemed much more skilled than his mother's. He sniffed, "Mother, please stop making noise, the emperor's brother can grill fish, you just wait to eat it."
Emperor Long'an glared at him, "Why are you talking to the queen mother! I'm not sensible!"
Zhao Defang touched his nose, it must have been!
Soon, Emperor Long'an grilled a fish. Zhao Defang salivated when he smelled the aroma, but he also knew that the first fish that the emperor brother grilled must be for the queen mother.
Sure enough, Emperor Long'an personally presented the fish to Li Su. After Li Su ate it, the taste was really good. "This taste is so familiar!"
"Father taught it. He said that you love fish, especially grilled fish. It's just that you have a tricky mouth. If you don't grill it well, you won't eat it." Emperor Long'an laughed.
Li Su recalled it carefully, and it is true that the first emperor really loved the original owner, because the original owner loved to eat grilled fish, and he was not good at cooking, so Tete went to learn it, not only learned it himself, but also taught his eldest son, The purpose is that after he left, when the original owner wanted to eat grilled fish, he could taste the familiar taste.
Seeing Li Su's sad expression, Emperor Long'an quickly winked at Zhao Defang. Zhao Defang understood, and immediately leaned forward, "Brother Emperor, please teach me too. I will also grill fish for my mother in the future!"
Being interrupted by Zhao Defang, Li Su's expression softened a lot, "Learn it, learn it, and bake it for people you like in the future."
Zhao Defang went to Li Su's side, "My son has no one he likes, so he only likes his mother! From now on, my son will only bake for you."
Li Subai gave him a look, "Sweet words!" Then he ate the fish slowly.
Emperor Long'an saw this, "Mother, although grilled fish is good, you can get angry if you eat too much. If you like it, next time my son will grill it for you."
Li Su wiped his hands clean, he ate a lot of pastries in addition to a grilled fish just now, he is full now. Emperor Long'an cleaned his hands, "My son will help you go to the imperial garden for a walk, let's digest your food!"
Li Su nodded.
Zhao Defang's eyes widened, "I've been tossing for a long time, where is my grilled fish?"
Li Su turned his head and glanced at him, "Want to eat? Grill it yourself!"
Zhao Defang's face turned red with anger, isn't it just grilled fish? He will go to school tomorrow.
Emperor Long'an couldn't help laughing, "Little Anzi, you can stay and grill fish for the prince!"
Emperor Long'an supported Li Su to walk towards the imperial garden, and within a few steps, Li Su motioned him to let go, "It's not like I'm seven or eighty years old and can't walk anymore, so I don't need to support me."
Emperor Long'an glanced at Li Su, "Is the queen mother still angry with her son? It's all because of the son's fault. He didn't understand what the queen mother meant, and made the queen mother angry."
Li Su glanced at him, "There is no overnight feud between mother and son. If the Ai family was angry with you, they wouldn't eat your grilled fish. You are right about this matter, it is the Ai family who wanted to go. "
Emperor Long'an looked at Li Su's face again and again to make sure that she was really not angry, so he was relieved, "Xin Ningguo sent some natural jadeite beads, each of which is the size of a longan. My son might as well make a pair for his mother. The bead curtain, hang it in the bedroom, how about the empress look at it?"
Li Su smiled, "The Ai family is getting old, what do you want these for? You keep them for the concubines in your harem, right? Otherwise, it would be good to give them to the queen."
Emperor Long'an said with a smile: "The queen mother thinks about what they do, the queen mother raises the son up, and the son should be filial to the queen mother."
Li Su smiled, "The Ai family knows you are filial. Although you were not born to the Ai family, you were brought to the Ai family as soon as you were born. You were raised by the Ai family. In fact, the Ai family also has something to do with you. When you came to Aijia, Aijia was still a child and didn't know how to take care of you. But the people in the palace are dangerous, and Aijia didn't trust others to take care of you, so he had to take his time. Either he was hungry or It's freezing. At that time, it will be hard for you."
Emperor Long'an recalled when he was a child, his eyes were a little moist, "If the mother said so, the son would have no place to stand. If it weren't for the mother, there would be no son today. No matter how filial the son is to the mother."
"Okay, we mother and son, don't talk about this. You are fine, there is nothing to worry about Aijia. But Defang, you should pay more attention. He is still young, so don't be used by those who are interested. Aijia can I don't want to see a rift between you brothers." Li Su said.
Emperor Long'an was a little surprised. Although people around him had suggested many times, he never intervened in Zhao Defang's affairs because he was afraid of his mother's suspicion. Now that the queen mother took the initiative to let go, Emperor Long'an was a little at a loss.
"Queen."
"Okay, the Ai family will hand over Defang to you. You must be more careful. Don't let someone with a heart instigate him to be bad. The Ai family will only have you two children in this life, and the Ai family wants you two brothers to be well." .” Li Su said.
Emperor Long'an nodded solemnly, "Mother, don't worry, my son understands."
In the evening, Emperor Long'an rested at Empress Jiang's place in the central palace. Empress Jiang saw that Emperor Long'an was in a good mood today, and said with a smile: "Why is the emperor so happy today? But the queen mother has already forgiven the emperor."
Emperor Long'an glanced at her, and said indifferently, "What nonsense! Why has my mother ever been angry with me!"
Empress Jiang immediately sensed that Emperor Long'an was unhappy, and she was a little uneasy, "Your Majesty."
"Okay, let's rest!" Emperor Long'an threw down the book in his hand, went to bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Empress Jiang was annoyed. She knew the emperor was benevolent and filial, so why didn't she open which pot and carry which pot! It's just that she doesn't understand that the current queen mother is not the emperor's biological mother, so how can the emperor be so filial!
Empress Jiang lay down beside Emperor Long'an and touched her belly. No matter what, she still had to have a child of her own.
On the second day, Empress Jiang sent Emperor Long'an away, and hurriedly went to Ningshou Palace to pay her respects. But she went too early, and the queen mother was still asleep. Even when the emperor came, he didn't dare to disturb the queen mother, let alone her. Empress Jiang had to wait patiently.
After waiting for an hour, the other concubines came. Li Su came late.
"The sons and ministers pay respects to the queen mother." "Concubines and concubines pay respects to the queen mother."
"Get up!" Li Su covered his mouth with a veil and yawned. "Why did you come so early today? Am I the one who got up late?"
Empress Jiang laughed along, "What's the matter, it's because my son misses his mother and wants to come here early to pay her respects."
Li Su didn't want to act with them, and he didn't want them to use him as a cover, "From now on, you don't have to come to pay your respects every day. On the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, just come to Ningshou Palace to pay your respects."
"How can this be done? Isn't this breaking the rules?" Empress Jiang was a little uneasy. Could it be that someone offended the Empress Dowager again? If you don't come to pay your respects to the queen mother, what if the emperor blames you
"The Ai family sleeps too much, so I can't let you wait all day. Besides, filial piety is not the point. The emperor has an Ai family." Li Su said.
Empress Jiang had no choice but to agree.
