The queen mother watched Yun Chi and Hua Yan walk towards the threshold hand in hand in bright red brocade clothes. She had been looking forward to marrying Yun Chi a concubine for a long time, but now that she really got married, tears welled up in her eyes in relief.
After Yunchi and Huayan greeted each other, Huayan offered tea to the Queen Mother according to the rules.
The queen mother wiped the corners of her eyes several times with a handkerchief, and then took the tea with shaking hands. Afterwards, she ordered Madam Zhou to bring out the tea ceremony. Hua Yan was a little startled when she saw her. Although the queen mother's gift list was not as good as the queen's The gift list was heavy, but it was twice as thick as Huayan expected.
Huayan looked at the queen mother and said, "The emperor's grandmother's courtesy is too heavy."
The queen mother laughed, got up and pulled her up personally, and said lovingly, "Although there are many grandchildren in the Ai family, the prince is the one who loves the most. The princes and princesses after the prince have not yet married, so the Ai family will only give you grandchildren. Sixty percent for you. The Ai family used to be blind and couldn't see gold and jade, but now the Ai family can see clearly that you are a good boy and you deserve it."
Huayan smiled, received the gift from the queen mother, and ordered Caiqing to present the gift.
Whether it was for the emperor or the empress dowager, they were specially prepared by Hua Yan according to the preferences of the two. Most of the antiques, calligraphy and paintings were for the emperor, and most of them were beauty and beauty things for the empress dowager.
The queen mother also smiled happily and narrowed her eyes, "You and the prince live a good life, give birth to a great-grandson for the Ai family early, and the Ai family can live on for a few years, and hug the great-grandson."
Huayan smiled and nodded, "Yes, I will conceive this year and give birth next year."
The queen mother was taken aback and looked at Yunchi.
Yun Chi laughed, "Listen to the Crown Princess."
The queen mother became excited with joy, and tightly held Huayan's hand, "The Ai family knows that you are not in good health, so don't be in a hurry, the Ai family can afford to wait."
Huayan was a little surprised, she knew how much the queen mother wanted to embrace her great-grandson, but the queen mother clearly thought that it is really rare to be able to say these words now, at least, she put her body in front, which is really right She is very kind.
The Queen Mother patted her hand and said with emotion, "My dear child, you must take good care of your body and stay with the Prince. The Queen left early, and it is too hard for a child without a mother. Aijia doesn't want my great-grandson Just like the prince, even if he was born later, he still needs to have both parents, and he can watch him grow up, marry a wife and have children."
Huayan pursed the corners of her mouth. When she used to do everything possible to withdraw the engagement, she had some prejudice against the Queen Mother. Later, she accepted Yun Chi, but she was just fulfilling the responsibility of a junior. Now she sees that the Queen Mother really treats Yun Chi well, from the bottom of her heart Extraordinarily moving.
She lost all her spiritual power and skills. Except for her stronger perception, she is no different from ordinary people now. She doesn't know if the soul curse can be solved. First of all, the chain soul technique is not as powerful as the forbidden technique.
But she still nodded and said firmly, "Don't worry, Grandmother."
The queen mother pulled her to sit down, "Don't worry, Aijia, you and the prince are good children blessed by God."
Huayan talked with the queen mother for a while, and someone outside reported, "The queen mother, your highness the prince, all the princes and princesses are here."
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Please."
Someone answered.
The queen mother glanced outside, turned her head and said to Huayan, "Ai's family likes to be quiet, so they don't have to worry about it three times a day, but today I heard that you are going to enter the palace, so I called them to serve you tea."
Hua Yan nodded with a smile, she was also ready to give the ceremony, the emperor wanted to extend the number of heirs, he had many heirs, but he was afraid of fighting in the same room, so, except for Yun Chi, they were all raised as cats and dogs, but when Yun Chi got a little older, he was not afraid When brothers seize power, they are not afraid of brothers being talented and capable, so they pick up the education of all brothers and supervise their studies.
Therefore, all the brothers respected Yunchi even more.
Not long after, a large number of people came in from outside. There were princes and princesses who were older than Yunchi, who were older brothers and sisters above Yunchi, and more were princes and princesses who were younger than Yunchi. She has met the fifth prince, the eleventh prince, and the seventh princess. She has never met the rest of the people when she was in the capital. Except for these three, no one went to the East Palace to see her. But it also shows that among the princes, the three The relationship between people and Yunchi is the best, and the one who walks the closest.
Now she glanced at the past, thinking that the emperor's body has always been weak, but for the heirs, he really did his best. Knowing that there are many princes in the royal family of Southern Chu, but seeing it is another matter.
Fortunately, the Empress Dowager's palace is spacious enough to accommodate a large group of people.
&
nbsp;Everyone saluted the queen mother, and then Yunchi and Huayan in turn.
Because the crown prince is the heir apparent, Huayan naturally does not need to greet others. Caiqing holds the gifts Huayan prepared for everyone, and presents to everyone in turn.
The Fifth Prince, the Eleventh Prince, and the Seventh Princess are familiar with Huayan. Needless to say, Huayan gave them gifts according to their own preferences, but the rest of the princes and princesses were pleasantly surprised and surprised when they received the gifts. I have never seen Huayan before, but I also received a gift carefully prepared by her according to my heart.
Some people secretly wondered if Yun Chi had gone out of his way to help her, but they wondered if Yun Chi was busy with other things, so he even cared about such small things? strangeness.
The Empress Dowager looked at Huayan in amazement at her grandchildren, and said with a smile, "The Crown Princess is a delicate and transparent person, and it will be for your benefit that you walk around with her more in the future."
Everyone hurriedly responded.
Gathered together, the queen mother was happy after all, so she gave orders, "Everyone don't leave today, Aijia will keep you for lunch." After saying that, she ordered to Nanny Zhou, "Go to the imperial dining room and order, and prepare more meals .”
Nanny Zhou nodded, and hurriedly ordered people to go.
Seventh Princess leaned close to Huayan, tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "Fourth Sister-in-law, I found Lu Shizi the day before yesterday."
"Oh..." Huayan thought about her big wedding the day before yesterday, would his elder brother be free that day
Princess Seven approached her and whispered something in her ear.
Huayan understood, she pursed her lips and smiled, stretched out her hand to touch the center of her brow, and said in a low voice, "My elder brother has grown up a lot compared to before. He promised to call you back in three days, because he thought that you have liked him for so many years, and he would think about it carefully and give you a clear answer. If he nods to you after three days, that’s all. If he shakes his head at you, you Just let it go."
Seventh Princess nodded and said softly, "Don't worry, Fourth Sister-in-law, if he shakes his head, I won't miss him anymore. Let Fourth Brother and you choose a son-in-law for me."
Huayan nodded, and said with a smile, "Okay." After saying that, she turned her head to look at Yunchi, and saw that he was already taking the exams for the princes, so the fifth prince was fine, and the sixth prince, seventh prince and other princes lined up behind him. When the team came, she couldn't help laughing.
Seventh Princess also covered her mouth and smiled, and said to Huayan, "They are all afraid of seeing Fourth Brother, so when they have nothing to do, they don't always go to Fourth Brother, because as long as Fourth Brother sees them, he will test them. Homework. So, even if they were curious about what your fourth sister-in-law looked like before, they didn’t dare to go to the East Palace to see you. The fifth brother and the fourth brother have a small age difference since they were young, and they were trained by the fourth brother. The eleventh brother is Pishi Naughty, in order to go out of the palace to play, I am not afraid to see my fourth brother get hit by the board in the exam. The rest of the people would rather not go out of the palace than to be caught and questioned by the fourth brother for a long time."
Huayan was funny, watching Yunchi sitting there idly, casually exporting the exam questions, while the expressions of the princes were all tense. They didn't look strict, but the majesty of being an older brother was very strong.
She thought that when she gave birth to a child in the future, with someone as experienced as Yunchi around, she wouldn't have to worry at all if she taught her. He will definitely teach the children well.
If the emperor is also wise, although he doesn't care about the education of the princes, but he has raised a Yunchi well, which has really benefited a large group of emperor's heirs, and can be regarded as wise and wise.
Since ancient times, in all dynasties, there has never been such a fresh one as it is now, and it will not cause a catastrophe by competing for the throne due to its grandson. What Yunchi wants to revitalize is not only the southern Chu country, but also let the descendants of the royal family help him stabilize the country.
In the past few months when the fifth prince left Beijing to follow her to Lin'an in the north, the eleventh prince has been living in the East Palace. He only returned to live in the palace when he knew that Yun Chi was going to Lin'an to get married. Therefore, he easily passed Yunchi's assessment, and followed the Seventh Princess to talk in front of Huayan.
The Eleventh Prince was much more lively than Huayan when he first met him, and asked Huayan, "Fourth sister-in-law, I still want to live in the Eastern Palace for a while, is it possible?"
Hua Yan glanced at Yun Chi with a smile, but didn't agree to him, "Your fourth brother says it's done, so it will be done."
The eleventh prince blinked his eyes, "In the past, the fourth brother always had a straight face and no smile, so I went to him. Except for teaching me my subjects, he detested and annoyed me all the time, and the East Palace was deserted and not fun. But now, there are a lot of people living in the Eastern Palace, and I heard it is very lively." After speaking, he saw that Yun Chi didn't pay attention to this side, and whispered, "If I can't explain it, you can give my fourth brother a pillow breeze. "
Huayan laughed.
