Zhao Zhao has been sitting for six months, and she can sit firmly by herself. She is white and clean. She is not particularly fat, but her face is chubby, beautifully like a doll in a New Year's painting. Sister Kang from Prince Rui's mansion was three months older than Zhaozhao, but she was thin and small. In addition to being more flexible, those who didn't know they thought the two cousins were about the same age.
Zhaozhao is familiar with Brother Sheng and Brother Cheng. Today, when I saw my sister who was born with eyes, the little girl was honest for a while. Later, when she wanted to play, she threw the red cotton ball in her hand and asked her sister to play with her. Sister Kang usually seldom goes out and is very receptive. When her sister threw the ball to her, Sister Kang thought that her sister was bullying others, so she crawled into the arms of her own mother, Princess Rui, and shrank her head.
When the elder sister ran away, Zhaozhao turned her head and looked at her mother blankly with her almond eyes.
Song Jianing smiled and also took her daughter into her arms, coaxing the sisters to get to know each other.
As if nothing was happening to her, Princess Rui couldn't hold her breath anymore, and sighed: "I heard about the third highness, but you don't have to feel uncomfortable, the lord didn't lift the room when you were pregnant with Zhaozhao, which shows that you are in the lord's heart. Your lord really loves you, but this time, the lord has been running around for half a year and has been working very hard, so he had to use a close person to serve you…”
Song Jianing understood these truths, but she understood that it was one thing. She couldn't bring up the prince and other women in a short time, so when Princess Rui said this, she was upset, and she had a headache. But Song Jianing knew that Princess Rui was here to see her jokes, so she showed a natural look and said softly: "Second sister-in-law doesn't need to comfort me, I understand that, before the prince leaves, I want to arrange two maids for him. Come on, the lord thought it was troublesome and didn't bring it with me, and now that the lord has someone to serve me, I can rest assured, otherwise I'm really worried that the lord will not be able to sleep well outside."
Also a woman, Princess Rui didn't believe that Song Jianing was really so open-minded. Guessing that Song Jianing's generosity was pretending, Princess Rui continued to talk about King Shou's use of women outside. Song Jianing listened with a smile on her face, but Zhaozhao was dissatisfied with her mother for not accompanying her, and pointed at the cotton ball in the distance. , In fact, the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out, not at all.
Princess Rui said enough, and left with satisfaction.
As soon as she left, the smile on Song Jianing's face disappeared. She calmed down for a while in the inner room, and then called Shuang'er to come in and ask carefully. She learned that the rumor had spread in the capital a few days ago, and she was almost the last Knowing that, Song Jianing was in a worse mood.
"Don't worry, wangfei, the servants and servants all think this news can't be taken seriously." Seeing the wangfei's sad face, Shuang'er was distressed, and quickly comforted, "Think about it, before the wangye married you, there were no one around for so many years. Asking someone to wait on you, and now you are taking the emperor's order to patrol the river, how can the emperor have a leisurely time to contaminate women with such a big event?"
Song Jianing nodded and agreed with Shuang'er's words, but it was related to her husband, and Song Jianing really couldn't take it easy until he denied it personally. As early as when the emperor gave her marriage, Song Jianing was ready for the longevity king to take a concubine. If the prince had already had a concubine by his side, if the prince had carried the concubine when she was pregnant, or if the prince was not so kind to her, Song Jianing would not be upset by such rumors.
It was because the prince was too considerate to her that Song Jianing gradually developed greed, the greed that he wanted to monopolize his favor all the time.
Rumors spread in the capital in late April, Princess Rui "kindly" informed Song Jianing on the third day, that is, at the end of the month, Wang Shou still sent someone a letter from home. Song Jianing opened the letter in a complicated mood. It was still half-full of rice paper. Most of it said the itinerary at the front, and then reported the safety. Then she asked how she and her daughter were, and she didn't mention the rumor from beginning to end.
Did the prince confiscated the stunning woman, or did he not know that it had already been spread in the capital? Or maybe, the lord hired the legendary plump beauty and knew that she had heard of it, but he didn't mention it in the letter, but he just felt that there was no need to explain to her
There were so many possibilities that kept spinning in her mind, making Song Jianing restless. When she picked up the pen to write a reply, she didn't know what to say. I really can't write it down. Song Jianing briefly explained the changes in her daughter this month. She didn't grow significantly, but she gained eight taels from last month, and then she was able to sit steadily.
After finishing the homework, Song Jianing took out the four paintings that he had drawn at the beginning of the month and the middle of the month. Although he was not in the mood to paint at all now, he used to paint five paintings. The family letter and the five paintings were put into the envelope at the same time, and Liu Xi was asked to deliver it to the bodyguard who delivered the letter.
At noon that day, Zhao Heng took the envelope from Eunuch Fu and pinched it with two fingers. It didn't feel right. After Eunuch Fu left, he opened it and saw that four or five pages of the family letter were missing, the only one page. The writing is all about her daughter, dry narrative, not feeling her joy at all.
Looking at the five paintings again, the first four pictures of her daughter Bai Chuan are still cute. She is not good at painting, but her demeanor is agile, so although she painted her daughter ugly, Zhao Heng can still imagine how cute her daughter is. In the last picture, the girl in the painting is sitting on the couch holding the ball, the corners of her mouth are upturned, she seems to be smiling happily, but the girl's almond eyes lack the joy of the previous four pictures.
After reading it again, Zhao Heng pursed his lips. He knew that there were rumors in the capital, and he received the letter the day it spread. When writing the letter to the family, Zhao Heng hesitated whether to explain it or not, but he didn't write it, because if she believed him, his explanation would be superfluous, and it would appear that he Think too much.
But this letter from the family proves that she doesn't believe him. In her eyes, he is such a foolish womanizer.
Putting away the family letters, Zhao Heng went to the study, where he stayed alone for a while.
In the yard, Eunuch Fu looked at the study window many times, and sighed silently. He also squeezed out that the princess' envelope was not as thick as the previous two times, and now that the prince looked unhappy again, Eunuch Fu could guess what was going on with a little thought. The lord disdains to explain, he can understand, and the princess does not dare to ask because of her superiority and inferiority, but she is sad and sad, he can also understand...
Eunuch Fu was afraid that the prince and the princess would keep being polite and gradually distance themselves.
Just thinking about it, footsteps suddenly came from the study, Eunuch Fu quickly put away his worries and pretended that he didn't know anything.
Zhao Heng walked to the door of the main room without saying a word, only raised his hand.
Eunuch Fu looked over and saw that the master was holding a letter in his hand. Eunuch Fu couldn't guess what was written in the letter, but he knew that the letter was for the princess, so he took it with both hands and immediately arranged for someone to send it back to the capital. The poor guard who ran errands ran for half a day and didn't even have time to eat lunch, so he got back on his horse and ran back.
In Shouwang's mansion, the red sun was slanting to the west, Song Jianing was sitting on the couch, watching the wet nurse tease her daughter, when she suddenly heard the little maid outside happily saying, "My lord has another letter!"
Song Jianing turned to the glazed window in shock. There was a reply to the letter he sent out this morning? Didn't the lord only write a letter at the end of each month
The little girl handed the envelope to Shuang'er, who then quickly stepped into the second room and handed it to the master excitedly.
Song Jianing took the letter and looked at the familiar man's handwriting on the envelope. She was stunned for a moment, then opened it nervously.
Zhao Heng only wrote four sentences to his little princess: Rumors stop at the wise, the blind believers are stupid, no matter how stupid they are, they will be punished.
Song Jianing looked from right to left, and saw that the sentence was getting shorter and shorter, but the tone was getting more and more severe, and the two "stupid" words were particularly conspicuous.
Song Jianing couldn't help but read it silently. The lord said that smart people shouldn't believe in rumors, all those who believe are stupid. The lord said that if she is stupid again, she will be punished. After analyzing this, Song Jianing's face suddenly became hot. Does the lord know that she believed the rumor? But her book didn't say anything, how did the prince see it
He also reprimanded her for being stupid and punished her.
The prince wanted to punish her, but Song Jianing just wanted to laugh. The more she read the word "punishment", the more she couldn't help but smile.
It's good, the lord didn't touch any plump beauties. As long as he didn't touch her, no matter how he punished her, she would happily endure it.
"The princess smiled so beautifully, did the prince praise you?" At this moment, the princess could only be happy for one thing. The twins and the wet nurse who had guessed the truth laughed and joked, even Zhao Zhao in the wet nurse's arms. , Du Xing looked at her mother with bright eyes.
Song Jianing was embarrassed to see them, so she took the letter and went to the inner room by herself, covering her face for a while, and looking at the short four-line word again, Song Jianing walked to the desk and wrote to the prince in a turbulent mood. Letter of apology. A woman needs to be generous, Song Jianing has done something carefully, but she can't honestly explain it. She lied that she was not blind, but was angry that people outside slandered him.
After explaining, Song Jianing sincerely praised her prince again, praising him for being diligent and serving the people, and not such a romantic person. Finally, she obediently guaranteed that she would not blindly believe in any gossip, otherwise she would be willing to accept any punishment from the prince.
After writing the letter, it was getting dark, Song Jianing slept sweetly with the prince's letter in his arms, and only sent it out in the morning.
Zhao Heng received the letter at noon again. Seeing her pretending to be generous, Zhao Heng smiled sarcastically, the kind of sarcasm that wanted to pull her into his arms and kiss her fiercely. Seeing her flattery, Zhao Heng's expression calmed down, and unknowingly forgave her for her lies, and finally saw her saying that he would let him deal with it, and Zhao Heng's eyes gradually darkened.
Regardless of the disposal, did she really not deliberately hook him
That night, the pure-hearted Lord Shou tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and the anger aroused by his little princess couldn't go away, so the god-like Shou Wang did a very immortal thing, but fortunately he went to the net at the critical moment. room, leaving no traces.
After appeasing the little princess at home, King Shou continued to take King Gong to patrol the river, while secretly paying attention to the movements of all parties in the capital.
On the first day of the fifth lunar month, in the early morning, Emperor Xuande Zhou knew his ministers, and he wanted to inspect the navy at Jinming Lake on the outskirts of the capital on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival. Zhou was strong in the infantry and weak in the cavalry and navy. After Emperor Xuande ascended the throne, he sent craftsmen to divert water into a lake, which was specially used for training the navy. Now that the navy has been trained, Emperor Xuande will lead the civil and military officials to review, which is naturally praised by the ministers.
