after dinner.
Ji Yang didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, Jiang Yunqing couldn't sit still, watching the sky getting darker, he didn't dare to chase anyone away.
"Mother, are we still reading the script today?" Ji Chen was a child by nature, and couldn't bear it anymore.
Jiang Yun was slightly startled, "Today..."
"What script are you reading?" Ji Yang took the lead in asking.
Seeing this, Ji Chen felt that he had said something wrong, so he lowered his head and didn't make a sound.
Father didn't like him, and if he knew that he wasted time reading scripts without studying hard, he would definitely be even more dissatisfied with him.
"Chen'er is still young, and my concubine feels that some books are very difficult for him. Every night, I will spare half a stick of incense to study with him, and learn from him in a different way." Jiang Yun explained with a light smile, and changed the subject. , "Does the emperor have any memorials to be reviewed today? Do you want to go together..."
"Well, let's go together, I also want to see how the queen teaches Chen'er in a different way." Ji Yang interrupted her, looking quite interested.
Jiang Yunqing's face remained unchanged, but his eyes flickered, a little surprised, she said this just to remind him to leave.
After all, he hasn't stayed here for a long time, so naturally he doesn't care about her and the children, he is very busy.
"Ah Fu, bring me this morning's memorial." Ji Yang rushed outside.
"Yes, the old slave is going right now." Father Fu leaned over, took two apprentices with him, turned around and walked out quickly.
"Mother's queen." Seeing that Ji Yang was also interested, Ji Chen became even more interested, and ran to the bookshelf to take the book down.
"We won't learn this today." Jiang Yun walked over quickly, put down the book in his hand, and wanted to take out another book of poetry.
"But the mother and son want to read this, and the story hasn't finished yet." Ji Chen looked disappointed, "Why can't I read this?"
"Today has today's task." Jiang Yun lowered his voice lightly, and his usually loving eyes were also tainted with an aura that could not be rejected.
Ji Chen slowly let go, "The sons and ministers all obey the mother."
"If he wants to read it, he can watch it, and the emperor will also come and see what kind of story it is." Ji Yang had already stood up and walked over.
It was too late for Jiang Yunqing to hide, he had already reached out and grabbed the book in her hand.
Her complexion changed.
"There are also stories about little rabbits, cats and monkeys, and kangaroos..." Ji Chen shared with him enthusiastically, "Can the father count? The queen mother taught the son to count very quickly."
Ji Yang flipped through it, frowning tightly, staring at the book, then casually flipped through several pages, some of which were vivid illustrations.
"Chen'er's study is boring during the day, and he has to review and recite poems and songs at night. When he is always tired, the concubine doesn't know how to help him relieve it. I occasionally get a folk story book, and I want to watch it with him for a couple of nights. One." Jiang Yun said lightly and carefully observed his expression, "Chen'er is not sure about his playfulness, and my concubine doesn't know what to do. If you do something wrong, please don't blame the emperor."
Hearing this, Ji Yang's face softened a little, "Chen'er is still young, it's normal to be playful."
"The emperor was able to compose poems at the age of three and compose lyrics at the age of five. In comparison, Chen'er is too unsteady, and the concubines are also anxious. The Taifu can't catch them all the time. The concubines can only use stupid methods." She said helplessly and worriedly.
Ju Hong, who was standing on the side, lowered her head a little more.
Empress, empress, you hold the little prince in your arms every night and talk about the book, and you don't see anything in a hurry. When you get the chance, you still take him to relax and have fun. You fool the emperor one after another.
"It's not the queen's fault. If that's the case, Chen'er's future homework will be supervised by me." Ji Yang said directly.
Jiang Yun choked lightly.
What happened again was beyond her expectation, and she wanted to praise Ji Yang to make him happy, so the matter would be overturned.
He takes care of it
Her first counterattack was that it was not a good thing, what did he want to do
"What? The queen's expression, do you not believe me?" Ji Yang raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
"No." Jiang Yun smiled softly, "The concubine is afraid that the emperor will be too busy, and she still has to take care of Chen'er. It's really a bit..."
"No problem." Ji Yang waved his hand, "I have my own arrangements."
"The concubine thanked the emperor." Jiang Yun said lightly and leaned over slightly, winking at Ji Chen.
"My son, thank you, Father." The other party also saluted in a dignified manner. After speaking, he looked at Jiang Yunqing nervously, a little at a loss.
Ji Yang stretched out his hand and patted his small shoulder lightly, Jiang Yunqing showed a gentle smile, but his eyes were a bit complicated.
"Your Majesty, the memorial is here."
"Well, put it on the table." Ji Yang said casually.
"yes."
…
Xu Shiji Yang acted a little closer today, and Ji Chen gradually became more courageous, and sat next to Jiang Yunqing with the scriptures.
"Queen, let's talk about one later." He showed his childish side, holding her hand, thinking he was acting like a baby in a low voice.
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Ji Yang who was reading the memorial at the table.
In his memory, Ji Yang was very serious, and rarely played with him, but more often inspected his homework, and sometimes showed dissatisfaction.
"Chen'er, you haven't finished your homework today." Jiang Yun looked at him lightly, not as easy to talk as usual.
"You can relax a bit today, you don't need to push so hard." Ji Yang said as he folded the memorial, and took another copy.
Ji Chen showed a joyful expression. Looking at the eyes of his mother, his smile slowly subsided, "Teacher taught me that there is a priority in doing things, and you must not delay. Go and do today's homework first."
Jiang Yun nodded lightly.
In the following time, apart from Ji Chen's immature reading aloud, the occasional sound of flipping through books could be heard in the study room.
Jiang Yunqing held a gold thread needle and thread in his hand, and was embroidering a dark blue coat in his hand.
She looked up at Ji Yang, who was concentrating on reading the memorial, frowning from time to time.
When the new emperor took office, there was turmoil in the court, and various problems emerged one after another. The ministers were divided into multiple parties, and the hearts of the people were not in harmony.
Jiang Yun sighed lightly.
Ji Yang is very suspicious and can't tolerate other people's doubts, but sometimes she doesn't understand things as clearly as a harem woman.
Until late at night, Ji Yang didn't get up to leave, Ji Chen was a little drowsy, and the nanny brought him back to the bedroom.
After a while, Jiang Yunqing couldn't stand it any longer, Ji Yang stood up, and when he stood up, she also stood up.
The two went back to the back room.
Jiang Yun yawned quietly, seeing Ji Yang walking to the bed, she hurried up to help him change.
Ji Yang raised his hand, she helped him take off his coat, and sat on the bed, Jiang Yunqing was about to squat down to give him slippers, but was stopped before he stretched out his hand, "I can do it myself, the queen must be tired too, so I should rest earlier."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jiang Yun nodded lightly.
After they got into bed, the two were lying down, Jiang Yun looked at him lightly, and saw that Ji Yang had closed his eyes, and his eyes were a little scrutinized.
Today he is unusual.
In the past, he came once a month in the middle of a month, and completed a fish-and-water fun as usual, and his attitude towards her became more and more indifferent.
this time...
"Is the queen still asleep?"
Just as Jiang Yun was analyzing, Ji Yang suddenly opened his eyes, and his bottomless black eyes fell on her. That expression seemed to be able to see through her inner thoughts at once.
"The concubine is not sleepy." Jiang Yunqing tried his best to stabilize his mood, "The draft is getting closer, and the concubine also wants to choose a few more virtuous sisters to enter the palace, so that they can spread more and more for the emperor."
In the last batch of elections, not many of them caught his eye. In total, three concubines and a few noble concubines were conferred. As a result, in less than half a year now, there is only one concubine Li, one concubine who has been thrown into the cold palace, and one concubine. I have never been favored.
Ji Yang has recently been obsessed with alchemy, looking for Taoist priests, and has no intention of loving men and women, but he did not fail in the draft.
"There's no rush for the draft, we'll talk about it after the sacrifice to heaven." Ji Yang continued, "The people are still suffering, so there's no need for fanfare in the draft."
"The emperor is thoughtful, but the concubine is not thinking carefully." Jiang Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief.
He finally realized that this move had caused dissatisfaction among the ministers before, and if it continued like this, it would surely lose the hearts of the people.
"Go to sleep." Ji Yang reached out and pulled her quilt up.
"Um."
Ji Yang closed his eyes and didn't speak anymore, but Jiang Yunqing couldn't fall asleep, his mind was in a mess, but he didn't dare to turn over.
In the past, he and Ji Yang talked about everything at night, but now they are as distant as strangers.
the other end.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Your Majesty didn't go back to the imperial study, but went to the Empress's." The maid said with her head lowered.
"What?!" Li Fei said, she stood up and gritted her teeth, "Are you sure?"
The maid knelt down, "This servant saw the emperor went to Jiaheng Palace with his own eyes, and never came out again."
Concubine Li was so angry that she smashed the teacup in her hand on the ground again, her chest was so angry that the fire kept rising.
In the harem, it is a fact that the empress and the eldest prince are not favored, and the emperor is obsessed with finding a way to live forever. Among the concubines in the harem, she is the most favored one.
The emperor turned around and went to Jiang Yunqing, how could she bear it
The other party still has a son, thankfully the emperor doesn't value it, otherwise what would happen to her
Li Fei was so angry that she didn't sleep all night.
the next day.
Ji Yang summoned the ministers in the imperial study, Jiang Yan and Chen He both went, and the two had always hated each other.
Chen He is valued by the emperor now, but he doesn't lose his momentum when facing Jiang Yan. He looks at him with a smile, and angers the violent Jiang Yan.
As soon as the two entered the room, Ji Yang was sitting on the desk, and Ji Chen was sitting beside him with a brush in his hand, writing seriously. When he saw Jiang Yan, he smiled happily and called out, "Grandpa. "
Seeing this, everyone else looked like they were watching a play.
Who doesn't know that the emperor doesn't like the Jiang family? Although the eldest prince is the only prince now, it is unlikely to be the crown prince.
The closer the eldest prince is to the Jiang family, the more the emperor dislikes him.
Jiang Yan's face was also tangled, and he nodded bravely.
"Okay, let's do your homework today." Ji Yang pointed out softly, without any blame, but rather helpless.
"I know." Ji Chen looked back at the paper.
Ji Yang didn't shy away from his presence, and stood up, "The main purpose of calling for you to come here is to discuss the matter of offering sacrifices to heaven. This matter will be supervised by Chen Aiqing, and I will explain it to you in detail later. In addition, according to the sent back According to the news, the disaster situation in the Northwest continues to be serious, I think Jiang Aiqing will go to take charge, and bring Doctor An to go with her."
"Minister obeys the order." As soon as Chen He waited for him to finish speaking, he said it directly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
The environment in the northwest is so harsh, Jiang Yan, an old man, deserves to suffer.
"I... obey the order." Jiang Yan had no choice but to accept the order.
"Then I'll thank you dear ladies." Ji Yang walked to Ji Chen's side, and looked sideways at his writing.
Jiang Yan originally wanted to say something, but when he saw this scene, he swallowed his words back. The emperor seldom paid attention to the eldest prince, and if he said it, there would be another dispute.
never mind.
Ji Yang said a few more things, and finally said, "If there is nothing wrong, then step back."
"The minister will leave."
…
After a few people finished speaking, they retreated.
Eunuch A Fu stood aside, watched Ji Chen write the last word, put down the brush, looked at Ji Yang with some expectation, and said after a while, "Father, my son has finished writing."
There was still some caution in speaking.
"Bring it to my father to have a look." Ji Yang put down the book in his hand and looked over.
"Yeah." He picked up the paper with his small hand.
Ji Yang took it over and took a look, "How do you pronounce the second sentence? Didn't the Taifu teach you yesterday? Are you sure?"
"The second sentence..." Ji Chen bit his lower lip, took another look, and found out that he had made a mistake. He lowered his head and dared not speak, shrunk his neck, with an uneasy expression on his face.
Eunuch A Fu watched the way the two got along and sighed silently.
The empress used to be the most favored, and the eldest prince was born to be a stable prince. Now, the emperor doesn't know what he is thinking.
"Huancheng is a small town in Hechaohaikun. The town is famous for planting white berries. The background of Li Yu's writing of this poem coincided with the time when basil was in full bloom. He first arrived in Huancheng..." Ji Yang said slightly The words came, and after finishing speaking, he said, "The Taifu didn't introduce the background before teaching you?"
"The Grand Tutor didn't explain it in such detail as the Emperor Father, the Grand Tutor said..." Ji Chen repeated what the Grand Tutor said, speaking with eloquence.
"Teacher is right." Ji Yang waited for him to finish speaking, then spoke with a smile.
"But the father speaks better than the Taifu, and my son thinks that the father is more knowledgeable than the Taifu." Ji Chen looked at him with bright small eyes, and spoke quite seriously.
Those eyes are very similar to Ji Yang's.
Ji Yang laughed softly, "Teacher will also teach you very well, so don't relax."
"I know." Ji Chen nodded seriously.
outside the door.
Jiang Yun lowered his eyes and smiled, his brows slowly relaxed, and his tense nerves relaxed.
