C150 (1/2)
On the day of the new year, the prince returns, and the adopted mother wins;
Rongyou's son did not know his mother, and the filial piety recognized the ruthlessness of this system.
During New Year's Day, when the ministers' wives entered the palace to pay their respects to the empress dowager, empress dowager, and empress, the princes were brought back as well. Rong'er hadn't seen Prince Zhi in a long time, so he was really looking forward to this day.
In the empress dowager's Tzu Ning Palace, Bao Qing saw the empress at first glance and ran over happily. He called out, ”Imperial Concubine.”
The empress dowager smiled and said, ”Baoqing, your imperial concubine has already ascended to the empress dowager. You must call her mother in the future, do you understand?”
Bao Qing was about to be six years old. He tactfully nodded and sweetly called out, ”Muhou!”
The empress was moved by his words and hugged him tightly. Her eyes were filled with care and concern, she had never had a son, but this child was like a son to her. The Queen Mother misses you so much. ”Come and let Imperial Mother see that you've lost weight.” As he spoke, he pulled up the cleaning house to have a look.
His concubine stood at the side and watched the scene with disappointment in her eyes. Although Baoqing was her own daughter, he had been raised by the Imperial Concubine Zhao all these years, which meant that the Empress had indeed protected the best thing, the love she had for him, and had never treated him unfairly.
The child was born from the Chang Zai Tong, she really wanted to get close to her own child. She understood, looking at the protection of the situation, she could feel the Chang Zai Tong's mood, the Chang Zai Tong saw the concubine handing the child over to him, and turned to the concubine gratefully. The concubine nodded at her with a smile, and accepted the child happily. However, she knew very well that this child, Wan Zu, was her only hope, while Qing Qing was the empress's hope, not hers …
Thus, Rong'er was a complete stranger to him. Just a moment ago, Rong'er had excitedly rushed forward to hug him, but just as he was about to leave, Prince Yin began to wail in tears. Rong'er had no choice but to restrain her strong desire to hug him as she stood silently to one side, looking at him. Rongcheng held his hand and said in disappointment, ”Niang, I saw little brother!” ”It seems like she doesn't know who Xian is. She doesn't even smile at me anymore.” Rong'er smiled bitterly as he heard the girl's voice.
At this moment, the crown prince walked into the hall. The crowd hurriedly knelt down and bowed, but the four-year-old Bao Cheng still had a shallow understanding of etiquette, so he could only laugh at Rong'er. He liked this honorable concubine, so when the empress dowager beckoned to him, he obediently walked over.
He was very happy to see that his three princes were in good health. Now that the crown prince was added to the mix, the four sons and two daughters were in very good health, and the empress dowager and the empress dowager were in good health as well. The battle in the south was also very smooth, so Xuan Ye appeared to be very radiant, and his complexion was very good.
Xuan Ye had been wearing a smile on his face all day. When he saw Zhaerji, he asked, ”How is Zhaerji's illness?”
”The emperor was worried and sent an imperial physician to see. We shouldn't have said anything about the joyous occasion, but since the emperor is worried, this subject's reporting truthfully. According to the imperial physician, this illness isn't too optimistic.” All the princes and officials were due to enter the palace for a celebration this New Year's. Zirhi couldn't come, so she was the only one who took Prince Zhi into the palace.
Xuan Ye nodded his head lightly and put away his smile. He said with concern, ”Go back and help me pass on my message to Zhaerji that he should take care of his illness. There is no need to worry about all matters of the court.”
”This subject shall obey the decree, and thank Your Majesty for his grace.” ”Thank you,” said Big Fortune.
He couldn't enter the palace today, so he was still rather worried. Xuan Ye greatly admired Zou'er and had always intended to use her for his own good. Giving her to him for his care had something to do with his own love for him, but now that Zou'er was so ill, he couldn't help but worry.
When Rong'er arrived at the Palace, Xuan Ye was still looking at his paper money while waiting in his study room. Rong'er was a little sad when he thought of him, but the child was raised outside the palace, so it was only a matter of time before he would forget about her. Even if the crown prince protected her close to him, she still wouldn't be able to understand what it really felt like to be his first concubine. His four children were gone and his son was facing a mother who could not be recognized. This kind of feeling was really heartbreaking.
After Xuan Ye entered the room, he saw Rong'er sitting by the bed with a worried look on her face. He didn't even notice that he had entered the room. He had the palace maids withdraw and quietly walked to Rong'er's side. ”Rong'er!”
