Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 349 The eldest son of the emperor and the auspicious unicorn
The big black eyes stared at Xiao Cheng and turned around, neither crying nor fussing, and the delicate little hands waved towards Xiao Cheng.

Xiao Cheng stared at him for a while, and subconsciously blinked his eyes twice.

My baby, so new...

Compared with other babies who were born with wrinkled faces, Xiao Cheng's son was white and tender, looking "new".In addition, the big black eyes are agile, and the facial features can be vaguely seen after opening, which makes people feel a sense of love.

Holding his son in his arms, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but smile.

On the day of birth, a vision descended from the sky, the fragrant wind curled up, and the color auspiciously fluttered.Isn't this in a sense, so handsome?

Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng smiled even more, and couldn't help saying in his heart:
This son is like me!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, quickly show the concubine again!" Nan Rongshu couldn't help but touch his neck.

With all her cultivation, Nan Rongshu can be considered a high-level warrior, her physical fitness far exceeds that of ordinary people.After giving birth, although she was leaning on the bed, her face was slightly pale, and her expression was a little sluggish, but she was still in good spirits.

At this time, they were making a fuss and wanted to take the child back.If it weren't for the palace guards watching, I'm afraid he would have struggled to get up.

Seeing Nan Rongshu's eagerness, Xiao Cheng quickly walked forward with the child in his arms, but said in his mouth:

"Although you have a good foundation, you just gave birth after all, so you should be careful!"

Nan Rongshu was taught a few words, and immediately calmed down and stopped moving. She just stretched her neck and looked at the child with tenderness in her eyes, and said softly:
"Look, Your Majesty, the concubine's child looks really good-looking, just like the concubine!"

Xiao Cheng frowned upon hearing this.

Oh, really narcissistic, obviously like me...

Having said that, Nan Rongshu raised her head again, looked at Xiao Cheng with beautiful eyes and a smile, and said softly:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, outside just now, is it true that, as the palace people said, there was a vision from heaven when the child was born?"

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng smiled and said:
"The fragrant wind is wafting, and the auspicious colors are fluttering. The entire Zhongqing City has seen such a vision!"

Nan Rongshu was overjoyed when she heard the words, and leaned in front of the child, kissed his fair and tender face, and said joyfully:
"Good boy, you really look good on your mother!"

Well, Nan Rongshu's strange and stubborn desire to win has committed another crime...

Xiao Cheng shook his head slightly, changed the topic, and said:
"After a while, the Ministry of Rites will come to register him with the Tianhuang Jade Document. What do you think? Or the Ailao clan, do you have any specific customs on children's names?"

The Heavenly Yellow Jade Letter sounds vague and sharp, and it seems a bit like a treasure of fantasy and fairy tales.But in fact, it is just the identity proof of the royal family of Yun Kingdom.

Hearing that Xiao Cheng even asked for his opinion on the name of the child, Nan Rongshu smiled even more, and gently leaned on Xiao Cheng's shoulder, and said softly:

"Your Majesty can decide!"

Xiao Cheng looked at the child in his arms, pondered for a while, and then said:

"He will inherit the legacy of the Ailao clan in the future, so he will be named 'Ze'."

As the child of Xiao Cheng and Nan Rongshu, and also the prince, he was born with the support of the Ailao clan.

Of course, things that are still far away, such as seizing the heir in the future, are not considered for the time being.The name alone is actually mainly to stabilize and win over the current upper-level forces of the Ailao tribe.

Xiao Cheng paused, then continued:
"The descendants of the Xiao family are now ranked according to the generation of 'Bright Zhizheng Dawan, Yu Cheng can be educated and educated'. When it comes to his generation, it should be the generation of 'Cheng'."

In fact, Xiao Cheng also has a parentage. When he was the prince, his full name should be Xiao Yucheng.

According to the tradition of the Yun Kingdom, after the princes of all dynasties were established as crown princes and princes, in order to avoid the names of other princes, they removed the characters and named them with single characters.

"Xiao Chengze, Xiao Chengze..."

Nan Rongshu read it several times, and her eyes became brighter.

"That's a good name!"

After all, she hadn't forgotten that the reason why she wanted to stay in the harem of Yunguo back then was to act as a bridge between the court of Yunguo and the Ailao clan.

From the name, I can feel Xiao Cheng's intentions better, and I am even more happy in my heart.

And while the two were chatting, Elder Liu of the Ailao clan who received the news of Nan Rongshu's delivery outside the palace hurried into the palace to ask for an audience.

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

As soon as they met, Liu Lao bowed down respectfully and paid homage.

Xiao Cheng quickly motioned to the palace servants to help him, waved his hand, and said with a smile:
"This child is considered to be the grandson of Liu Laozhong, come and have a look!"

Nan Rongshu's face was even more joyful, and she said with a smile:
"Mr. Liu, come quickly, His Majesty just named this child, Xiao Chengze!"

Hearing the child's name, Mr. Liu felt his heart skip a beat. He subconsciously glanced at Xiao Cheng, couldn't help showing a smile on his face, bowed again and said:

"The name of the eldest son of the emperor is really good, thank you Your Majesty!"

Old Liu paused, then immediately continued:

"Your Majesty's eldest son is born, and we mourn the old people, and we should offer a gift of congratulations!"

Talking to someone like Liu Lao who has a brain and understands current affairs, just don't waste too much time.Although it is only these two sentences, there is quite a profound meaning in them.

Xiao Cheng nodded in satisfaction, knowing that he would inevitably be restrained here, so he comforted Nan Rongshu a few words in a gentle voice, and he was taken care of by Yan Ming's palace servants, and then he drove away.

When Xiao Cheng left, Elder Liu breathed a sigh of relief visibly.

As Xiao Chenghuang became more and more powerful, few people could get along well in front of him.

Mr. Liu quickly walked to the side of Nan Rongshu's bed, and carefully took the little prince from the palace man and hugged him in his arms.

The little prince didn't take life very seriously, looking at Liu Lao who was hugging him, his big black eyes rolled, and he grinned with a pure smile, which made people's hearts touch, and suddenly felt that their hearts were half melted.

Between Liu Lao's wrinkled brows and eyes, a gentle and loving expression was immediately revealed, and the corner of his mouth could not help showing a smile.

Xu Shi's motherhood is like this, and she likes to show off her cubs.

At this time, Nan Rongshu, with a smile on her brows and eyes, raised her head slightly, and said softly:

"Old Liu, is Ze'er as cute as I was back then?"

Just looking at that look, it's already written "Hurry up, hurry up!" written on his face.

At this moment, Mr. Liu was completely attracted by the little prince, and he was unwilling to raise his head, so he responded casually:

"When the lord was born, he was dry, skinny, and wrinkled. He really wasn't as good-looking as the eldest son of the emperor!"

When Nan Rongshu heard this, her smile faltered, and her lips curled slightly.

After watching the little prince in his arms for a long time, Lao Liu reluctantly handed it back to the palace servants.

"My lord, I have clan affairs and want to report them to you!" Elder Liu looked up at Nan Rongshu and said seriously.

Nan Rongshu was slightly taken aback when she heard this.

Then noticing that a large number of palace people in the palace were waiting on the side, she suddenly reacted in her heart.After hesitating for a while, Nan Rongshu pursed her lips, and said in a deep voice:
"The rest of you go down first, let Ling'er call you if you have something to do!"

Except for the palace maid Ling'er who was also from the Ailao clan, the rest of the palace people hurriedly bowed and saluted, and then retreated cautiously.

When the crowd retreated, Nan Rongshu's expression was fixed, she looked at Liu Lao, and said:
"What happened to the clan?"

Old Liu patted her hand and said in a warm voice:
"My lord, don't be nervous. There is nothing important in the clan... I just want to tell my lord that this time when I came to Beijing, I have already dedicated the legacy of the former Ailao Kingdom to His Majesty today."

Having said that, Old Liu bowed his head and said:

"Although I know that the lord will not object, the national treasure of Ailao country in the past should only be decided by the lord. This is why I presented it without the consent of the lord. I ask the lord to forgive me!"

Hearing this, Nan Rongshu couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief, saying:

"That's the thing, I thought it was something."

"Although that thing is a treasure handed down from the ancestors, it is not good for anyone in Ailao Kingdom... to still think about the glory of the past. It is most appropriate to dedicate it to His Majesty!"

Old Liu nodded when he heard the words, and said with a smile:

"I think so too..."

Speaking of this, Elder Liu looked at the little prince Xiao Chengze at the side, a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and said:
"Now, we have His Royal Highness, the eldest son of the emperor. He is the future hope of our clan!"

It may be too early to say anything else.Just talking about Xiao Chengze's birth has already made the Ailao clan dispel many previous worries in their hearts.

Elder Liu looked at Nan Rongshu and said solemnly:

"Thirty young girls of the right age were selected from the clan, all of whom are clever and trustworthy. I have already asked someone to teach the etiquette in the palace, and they were sent to the palace to be selected as maids in the palace a while ago. I will look for Chu Li later. The way of the father-in-law, transfer them to your side."

"The harem is as deep as the sea, and now that there are princes, I'm afraid there will be turbulent undercurrents. With them listening to you by your side, you can always feel at ease!"

This is good if you have the support of your mother's family, and you should try your best to help.

On the other hand, although Bian Liuyun was born in one of the hundred schools of music, but because Xia Guorou replaced Ning Diji and entered the palace, few people knew her real identity. Presumably no one could arrange this for her.

When Nan Rongshu heard the words, her eyes narrowed, she looked at Old Liu, and said solemnly:

"Old Liu, it's fine to arrange people to enter the palace...but there are only two other people in your majesty's harem besides me, and none of them are dark-minded people. You can't do any unnecessary things!"

Although Nan Rongshu loves to compete for favor, she has always been moderate. Not only will she not bore Xiao Cheng, but she will often subconsciously give Xiao Cheng a sense of satisfaction, which can be regarded as a kind of fun.

Moreover, Bian Liuyun is gentle and submissive, and Yang Yuhuan is innocent and innocent, neither of whom is someone who knows how to use insidious means.

If it was really because of himself that the harem became smoky, I'm afraid it would arouse Xiao Cheng's disgust instead, so at this time Nan Rongshu had no choice but to say such a word.

Old Liu shook his head slightly when he heard the words, and said with a wry smile:
"My lord, I'm afraid it's too bold to think of my old body..."

Even if she dared to have such a plan in her heart, could it be that His Majesty just now is a vegetarian?There are hundreds of surveillance officials in the East Factory and the sticky pole, and they are famous for spying on the world.Could it be that Mrs. Liu really thinks that the life of the Ailao clan is too comfortable now?
Hearing this, Nan Rongshu thought about it carefully, and couldn't help laughing.
-
At this moment, when Xiao Cheng returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he discovered that not only did the important officials not leave, but more officials from the court and the central government had gathered here, waiting for Xiao Cheng's summons.

As soon as they saw Xiao Cheng come back, all the officials showed joy, they all bowed down and bowed down, congratulating:
"I'm here to congratulate you when I hear that the eldest son of the emperor was born!"

"The birth of the eldest son of the emperor, there is a vision in the sky, and everyone in the capital can see it. This is the image of the prosperity of my Dayun country!"

"Congratulations to His Majesty! Congratulations to Dayun!"

Above the imperial palace, clouds and clouds gather to form auspicious statues, and the strange fragrance spreads all over the capital.Such a vision from heaven can be seen even by ordinary people.In less than half a day, the news had already spread throughout the capital.

In the folk, Xiao Cheng is almost the image of the eternal holy master.The birth of the prince was accompanied by visions of heaven and earth, which added a touch of mystery to him.

Naturally, Xiao Cheng would not deny such things of increasing people's hearts and enhancing national cohesion and pride. He immediately laughed loudly and said:
"How can I say why you are so well-informed about the news of the Qing family? It turns out that I noticed this! This is a happy event, and I should share it with the government and the public."

Speaking of this, Xiao Cheng immediately said loudly:

"Decree, a feast for all officials tomorrow. Officials at all levels will be given one month's salary. Scholars from local government-run academies will be given additional rice and grain for one month. Elderly people over [-] years old will be allocated funds from the internal treasury, and each will be given rice, meat, cloth and silk."

When all the ministers heard the words, they immediately bowed in unison and said:
"Honor, thank you, Your Majesty!"

And at this moment, I heard a person suddenly say:

"Your Majesty, I have recently found an auspicious auspicious sign, and I want to present it to Your Majesty to celebrate the birth of the emperor's eldest son!" Wen Tiren, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, walked out of the ranks of officials and bowed.

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng frowned, and asked:
"Auspicious? What auspicious?"

"Auspicious beast unicorn!" Wen Tiren said solemnly.

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng moved his eyes, raised his eyebrows and said:
"Auspicious beast? Or a unicorn? I thought it was just a myth or legend, or a mythical beast depicted in a ghost novel!"

Hearing these two key words, Xiao Cheng suddenly murmured in his heart.

Well, is there a possibility that the unicorn that Wen Tiren mentioned is a giraffe?

Ming Chengzu Zhu Di happily accepted the auspicious unicorn presented by his officials, and even ordered someone to paint a portrait.As a result, it was passed on to later generations, and it was discovered that it was a giraffe...

Xiao Cheng didn't want to make such a joke.

Wen Tiren hastily said:

"I didn't see it before, and I couldn't believe it. I thought that someone was trying to please His Majesty and forged auspicious things. But after seeing it with my own eyes, I can't believe that the unicorn auspicious beast does exist."

Having said that, Wen Tiren paused, and continued:
"I personally traced the portraits of the beasts, Your Majesty, please take a look!"

After finishing speaking, Wen Tiren immediately took out a painting scroll from his sleeve, and offered it respectfully with both hands.

Xiao Cheng looked at Wen Tiren, frowned, waved his hand slightly, and said:

"Come here!"

Seeing this, Feng Bao hurried down to take the scroll and sent it to Xiao Cheng.

The painting scroll slowly opened, and Xiao Cheng, who had already planned to see the portrait of the giraffe, suddenly focused his eyes, frowned subconsciously and said:
"This is the portrait you drew after seeing it with your own eyes?"

On the picture scroll, there is a sheep's head and a wolf's hoof dome, a body like an elk, colorful, a tail like a dragon's tail, scales and horns, exactly the same shape as the mythical unicorn!
"I don't dare to lie, the beasts in the painting are indeed copied after I saw them with my own eyes..."

"The benevolent beast of the Lin is the Jiarui of the holy king. This divine beast that should not have existed in the world was born in the world. It must be His Majesty's merits and kindness. It is comparable to the ancient holy kings, which attracted the divine beast to appear in the world!"

Xiao Cheng narrowed his eyes, and immediately said:
"Where is Qilin now?"

Is this thing caused by the promotion of heaven and earth?
"It's just outside the palace." Wen Tiren replied.

"Send someone to bring it in!"

"According to the order."

　When I came back from get off work, it was already past ten in the morning, and then I slept until six in the afternoon.

　　One chapter will be released first, and another chapter will definitely be written today. If you can’t wait, you can read it tomorrow morning!
