The 29th of June is the birthday of the King of Chu. After more than two months of recuperation, the King of Chu's madness has been relieved, and he no longer beats people frantically at every turn. As long as Feng Zheng is by his side, the King of Chu can compare See you calmly. During the first two days of vacation, Emperor Xuande visited him once.
When the King of Chu celebrated his small birthday, Feng Zheng didn't want to make a big deal, so he asked Song Jianing's family of three to gather there.
The King of Chu has always liked Zhaozhao, and Song Jianing wanted his daughter to give a gift. Zhaozhao was not two years old yet, so he couldn't do it. Song Jianing put together all the gadgets his daughter had received in the past two years and asked her what Which to give to the uncle. The little girl looked at them one by one, and then kept shaking her head, not giving any one, she had to keep it for herself.
When Zhao Heng came back, he saw his concubine coaxing his daughter. The older one was gentle, the younger one was cute, and her almond-like eyes were watery, washing away all the exhaustion he had accumulated in Zhongshu Province that day. At dusk, when the night wind turned cold, Zhao Heng walked to the bed and asked his daughter with a smile, "Going to the garden?"
Zhaozhao immediately dropped the round longevity peach wood carving in his hand, ran to his father on short legs, and said clearly, "Lotus!"
There are so many scenes in Shouwangfu, the little princess likes the lotus pond the most.
Zhao Heng picked up his daughter, Song Jianing followed, and the family of three went to the back garden.
In the lotus pond, the lotus leaves are green into pieces, and the lotus flowers are pink and white, and they stand slim. A few large stones were laid flat on the shore for people to sit, and the shade of the weeping willow trees fell on it, making it cooler and cooler. Zhao Heng carried his daughter to a stone and sat down. As soon as he sat down, Zhaozhao stuck his head out and looked into the pool, looking for fish.
Shuang'er handed the porcelain plate in her hand to the princess in time. There was fish food in it. Zhaozhao thought it was something delicious for her, so she reached out and grabbed it.
Song Jianing smiled and took it away: "This is for the fish, look at Zhaozhao." After speaking, he took a bite of the fish food and threw it into the water. There were several ripples on the water immediately. Zhaozhao watched intently, not long after he saw a few red carp floating over, Zhaozhao widened his eyes, looked at his mother, and then at the fish food, seemed to understand the connection, grabbed a handful of fish food, Throw it hard into the water.
The two mothers fed them together, and there were more and more fish, all of which were small red carps the size of palms. The two mothers watched with great interest.
Zhao Heng held his daughter silently, and his thoughts gradually returned to the courtroom.
The elder brother's illness has caused changes in the court day by day. In the past, the courtiers were sure that the elder brother was the future prince, and when they saw the elder brother, they were all respectful. The courtiers who were there, all ran to Prince Rui's side one after another. With all the stars holding the moon, Prince Rui became more cautious, and his father became more and more appreciative of him. For the support of the courtiers, his father seemed to intend to turn a blind eye.
Zhao Heng felt uncomfortable when his brother's favor was taken away by Prince Rui. It was only now that he could see clearly that although the father was partial to the elder brother, the father also loved the other sons. When the eldest brother was ill, the father turned his favor to other princes.
He was thinking about big things, and Song Jianing was still thinking about how to make his daughter make the King of Chu happy. Looking at the red and beautiful little fish, thinking that the king of Chu doesn't remember anything now, and his temperament is a bit like a child, Song Jianing asked his daughter, "We have so many fish in our family, would Zhaozhao give one to the eldest uncle? it is good?"
Zhaozhao blinked and shook his head again, stingy and cute.
Song Jianing hugged her daughter to her lap, and held her daughter's chubby hand to reason softly: "This year's New Year, the uncle gave Zhao Zhao a big ingot, and now the uncle is celebrating his birthday, should Zhaozhao be filial to the uncle? ? You give the red carp to the eldest uncle, the eldest uncle will be happy, and the eldest aunt will like you more."
Zhaozhao had just played with that big ingot, and after looking at so many fish in the pond, the little girl finally nodded.
Song Jianing asked her daughter to pick a red carp, and Eunuch Fu heard the voice and ordered the little eunuch to fetch the fish pocket.
Soon, the little eunuch came back with three fish pockets. Song Jianing wanted to play by herself, so she handed her daughter over to the prince's husband. She took a long fish pocket and stretched it into the water, waiting for the fish to enter the net before collecting it, but Zhao Zhao was in a hurry. Rod, push up hard, the fish are scared away!
Zhaozhao snorted in confusion.
Song Jianing smiled and kissed her daughter, "Don't worry Zhaozhao, let's take your time."
Hearing the words, Zhao Heng chewed his wife's words unconsciously.
Don't worry, take your time.
Yeah, what's he in a hurry for? The royal father had doted on his brother for more than ten years, but he had not made the crown prince for a long time. All the ministers were sure that the elder brother would be the prince. Unexpectedly, the elder brother suddenly went crazy and lost everything. Now the royal father is only partial to Prince Rui for two or three months, not to mention that the royal father has no intention of establishing a heir, that is, he has established it. No one can say for sure until the last moment of the emperor's throne.
After he figured it out, Zhao Heng frowned, snatched the fishing rod from his wife's hand, seized the opportunity, and caught a small red carp as soon as he shot.
"The prince is still the most powerful." Song Jianing patted the future dragon's fart with a smile and crooked eyes.
Zhaozhao followed suit: "Daddy is amazing!"
Zhao Heng smiled while holding his daughter, but looked at his wife, Song Jianing felt that the prince's eyes seemed to be praising her.
On the day of the banquet, Zhao Heng prepared a celadon fish tank and asked Eunuch Fu to fish the fish into it. This was the birthday gift for their family of three.
Chu palace.
Due to this illness, the King of Chu lost a lot of weight, but he was still tall and stalwart, but he lost the aggressive and domineering aura of the past. He put on a light-colored robe, and his expression was stunned. In the past, the king of Chu would frown when he frowned, but now he only frowns because Feng Zheng asked him to take medicine and other trivial matters...
But Feng Zheng was very satisfied, and helped her husband clean up early.
She has been thinking almost all about taking care of her husband recently. Brother Cheng is still young, but Brother Sheng, who is five years old, is becoming more and more sensible. Her mother has no time to accompany her brother. Brother Sheng is by his side every day. Brother Sheng will find his mother. The father was unhappy, and the boy stood obediently watching his mother feed the father and take medicine. When the father was happy, Sheng Geer coquettishly asked the father to hug him.
Hearing that the third uncle and the third aunt were coming, Brother Sheng was the first to run to the front yard and reach out to the third uncle from a distance.
Zhao Heng smiled, leaned over, and easily picked up his nephew.
Brother Sheng leaned on the shoulders of the third uncle, and his small hands were tightly wrapped around the third uncle's neck. Before his father fell ill, he felt that his shoulders were the strongest. As long as his father held him, he was not afraid of anything. Now, only by being held by the third uncle, will Brother Sheng not be afraid, and even his mother can't compare to the third uncle.
Zhao Heng faintly felt the change in his nephew's mood, and his mood became more complicated, and he lightly patted the boy's thin and tender shoulder.
"elder brother."
Zhaozhao leaned in his mother's arms and shouted with a smile. Brother Sheng turned his head and saw the beautiful sister, the boy smiled happily.
Zhao Heng and Song Jianing put down their children respectively, and then Brother Sheng led Zhao Zhao to the front, and the couple followed slowly.
"younger brother!"
When he got to Shangfang, he saw another little boy standing in front of him, Zhao Zhao let go of his brother and ran over happily, and brother Sheng followed him every step of the way. The brothers and sisters got together, the two older brothers were stubborn, the youngest sister was fair and cute, and the atmosphere was relaxed.
Zhao Heng looked at his brother.
The King of Chu was still not used to seeing "strangers", so he glanced at him defensively. The tall man actually hid behind the petite Feng Zheng. Feng Zheng smiled helplessly, but Zhao Heng was saddened that his brother had become like this, and quickly looked away. Zhaozhao played with his elder brother and younger brother for a while, remembered the gift, and left the younger brothers behind. The little girl ran to the eldest uncle's side, pointed to the celadon tank held by Eunuch Fu and said, "Fish, give it to the eldest uncle!"
Eunuch Fu stepped forward quickly.
A red carp swims in the elegant celadon tank, the water waves are clear, and the red carp swings its tail gracefully.
Feng Zheng was slightly stunned, his eyes blurred unconsciously, remembering that in the spring when Brother Sheng was two years old, the emperor rewarded the prince with a cloud-patterned glazed jar as a tribute from the Western Regions. The prince happily took it back and put two red carp inside . The bathtub was placed on the couch, the prince was holding Brother Sheng, and she knelt on the side, coaxing her son to tease the fish together.
Recalling that time, Feng Zheng looked back at the man behind him, and saw that he was staring straight at the fish tank, as if remembering something, Feng Zheng's heartbeat suddenly increased, and he couldn't help but nervously asked, "Do you remember, lord? You also sent Brother Sheng's red carp?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Heng and Song Jianing looked at the King of Chu at the same time, while Brother Sheng looked at the fish tank suspiciously, but didn't remember.
The King of Chu only stared at the red carp.
Zhao Heng gave Eunuch Fu a wink, and Eunuch Fu walked over slowly and tentatively handed the fish tank to the King of Chu.
King Chu, who had always resisted strangers, actually reached out to catch it, and then lowered his head to look. Feng Zheng waited expectantly, waiting for a cup of tea. Seeing that the King of Chu was just staring at the fish, the hope in Feng Zheng's eyes dimmed a little, and he invited Song Jianing to sit in the hall with some embarrassment.
The children were playing in the yard, the King of Chu held the fish tank and didn't move, and Zhao Heng stayed outside.
The two sister-in-law sat inside and talked about the recovery of the King of Chu. Feng Zheng remembered something and asked, "Sister Yu is going to have a hundred days, right?" Princess Rui's child born in Kaichun is another daughter, named Yu sister. Although the Chu palace closed the door to thank guests, Feng Zheng remembered the favors of several palaces. She asked Song Jianing to send a gift to Jie Jie's full moon, and she also prepared the 100-day gift in advance.
Song Jianing hummed. On the sixth day of July, she had already received the post.
Feng Zheng sighed, "It's not easy for her either." Prince Rui had a concubine and a concubine beside him. If Princess Rui could have a son, it would be better.
Song Jianing turned the tea bowl in his hand, but didn't answer, but his eyes fell on his stomach. His daughter is almost two years old, and the prince also loves her. Why hasn't he moved
In the yard, the king of Chu was pulled by the three children to sit on the beauties in the corridor. He put the fish tank on his lap, and Brother Sheng, Brother Cheng, and Zhao Zhao were watching. Zhao Heng stayed three steps away, unable to tell whether he was taking care of the children or his brother who had completely changed.
"I caught it!" Pointing at the red carp, Zhaozhao showed off to his brothers.
Brother Sheng looked at his sister with "awesome" eyes.
Brother Cheng leaned on his father's thigh with one hand, looked at his brother and sister with big eyes, and suddenly raised his hand to catch the fish. Zhao Zhao and Brother Sheng looked at each other, but they didn't pay attention. Zhao Heng saw it. He was worried that his little nephew would anger his elder brother.
Zhao Heng's heart tightened. Just when he was worried that his brother would get angry, the King of Chu let go of Cheng's little bad hand, and said to the boy seriously, "This fish will bite, so you can't catch it."
Will it bite
Brother Cheng was so frightened that he immediately hid his hands behind him. Brother Sheng and Zhao Zhao were also surprised to see the biting fish in the celadon tank. , as if very proud.
"Big brother?" Zhao Heng tried his best to remain calm.
The King of Chu raised his head, his eyes brightened, and when he saw his younger brother standing there, the King of Chu frowned and asked strangely, "Has the third child grown taller?"
Zhao Heng:…
"Daddy is tall!" Hearing that the uncle was praising the king, Zhaozhao dropped the red carp, smiled and threw himself on the lap of the king and hugged him.
Daddy
The King of Chu widened his eyes in shock and looked at Zhao Zhao in disbelief. He remembered that his younger brother got married last year. Where did he get his daughter
