Three days after returning to Beijing, Song Qingyue went to greet the queen mother and the pregnant queen, and Li Zhao accompanied her.

The queen mother naturally didn't look good towards her, but this old woman has always been a bully and fears nothing. With Li Zhao present, the queen mother dared not say anything. Outside the words, they were talking about how uneasy she was pregnant with this pregnancy, how uncomfortable she was and so on.

Li Zhao said with a smile: "Of course, the old clam is a little uncomfortable when she is pregnant."

Choked the queen enough.

As if that wasn't enough, he went on to say: "It's the mother's blessing to be able to conceive an heir for the father. I complained a lot, and carefully told the resentment to drive away the blessing. Yue'er is already weak, and she will be even weaker after giving birth. , In midsummer, she often sweats, and she is too tired, so my son took her back to rest. The mother is also taking good care of her pregnancy, so we won't bother her."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the queen to answer, she dragged Song Qingyue out.

Song Qingyue held back her laughter, and just as she stepped out of the door of Kunning Palace, she couldn't help laughing out loud. The maids and eunuchs of Kunning Palace were even standing behind her.

Li Zhao hugged her shoulders with a smile, and didn't seem to care about his wife's attitude towards the queen at all. The two left with their respective entourages smiling all the way.

"That's...that's too arrogant!" A younger court lady couldn't help muttering.

The maid next to her who seemed to be a higher rank immediately whispered: "Stop saying a few words, just pretend you didn't see it."

"What's the matter? They are the ones who are rude in the first place! After all, our mother is also His Highness's stepmother, or his little aunt! How can you be so rude to the elders? This is unfilial!"

"Shut up! Are you going to kill yourself?" Another maid scolded her.

"Girl! We are from Kunning Palace!" The little palace maid is still obsessed with it, "Our lady is also the mother of a country, and she is still pregnant with dragon heirs, and her majesty keeps rewarding her every day. Why should our lady accept those two daughters? Are you angry?"

The grand lady was speechless.

An internal eunuch in front of the palace who has a good relationship with her said that the emperor ordered someone to go to the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau a year ago to make the crown prince's clothes. Two months ago, when His Royal Highness decided to return to Beijing, His Majesty sent someone again Go to the south of the Yangtze River and ask them to send all the dresses of the crown prince, the prince's concubine, the prince's side concubine, and the prince Liangdi.

The emperor has never disliked or disliked His Royal Highness, and he will not abandon the elders and establish the younger ones as some palace people guessed.

Even if the Empress Empress has another prince, it will be useless. His Majesty has already made up his mind to set up a prince, so His Highness must have already known it well.

Besides, His Majesty's attitude towards the Empress has not lasted for a day or two. Everyone in the palace knew that His Majesty was disrespectful to the Empress, but the Emperor never blamed His Majesty for this. Isn't this enough for people to understand?
The only one who doesn't understand is the queen.

In the afternoon, when Li Kun came home from school, he grinned brightly when he saw his mother, but the child lost another front tooth last night, and when he opened his mouth, he looked like he was missing another tooth. feel.

Song Qingyue waved at him and said, "How are you doing at school today?"

Li Kun straightened his chest and said, "Mr. Niu asked me to teach the students a math lesson."

"Then how are you doing?"

"Of course! Who is your son! Mr. Niu praised me for speaking well!"

Song Qingyue nodded at him: "It's not that Mr. Niu thinks you are good, so let it be fine. Let me ask you, what is your purpose of teaching your classmates?"

"It's...it's teaching my classmates what I know." Li Kun said.

"So the purpose is to teach the students, or let the students understand and learn?"

Li Kun blinked twice, but didn't answer.

Song Qingyue said: "The purpose should be to let your classmates understand and learn, right? So if they have really learned it, then it is considered that you have spoken well. What Mr. Niu said is not counted."

Li Kun's face was slightly downcast, and he said unconvinced: "I'll go and ask them tomorrow if they understand!"

"Now I'm going to the kitchen to make food for your brother, do you want to come together?" Song Qingyue asked him with a smile.

Li Kun immediately opened his eyes wide, looking very interested, and asked, "He's only six months old, isn't he still drinking milk?"

"I need to drink milk, and I can eat some other things. You were like this when you were a child."

"When I was young, did mother cook for me too?"

"Of course!" Song Qingyue patted his head, and said without blushing and guilt: "Most of the things you ate when you were young were made for your mother. If you want to eat things in your stomach, your mother can't trust you. Do it for someone else."

When Song Qingyue said this, Li Xiaokun seemed to feel all the love in the world, her face was flushed, and she shyly wriggled into Song Qingyue's arms.

Next, the process of preparing food for the younger brother was also very harmonious. Song Qingyue asked the little maid in the kitchen to scald the stone mortar with boiling water, and then asked Li Kun to help smash a spoonful of rice, put it into a small iron pot, and boil it into rice. Gooey.On the other hand, she peeled a pear, ate a piece herself, put a piece in Li Xiaokun's mouth, then peeled another pear, crushed it in a stone mortar, and put it on the rice paste.

Li Kun looked at the rice noodles in the small jade bowl that could be eaten in one bite, and asked in surprise, "Is such a small amount enough?"

Song Qingyue said with a smile: "He still needs to drink milk, this is enough!"

Li Fugui was lying in a small crib next to Babu's bed where Song Qingyue was sleeping, listening to Shen Guilan reading nursery rhymes to him.

The little guy's ears were sharp, and when he heard footsteps outside the door, he seemed to be able to tell that it was his mother's footsteps. He called out "da da da da!", and opened his little hands to ask the nanny to hug him.

Song Qingyue walked in holding Li Xiaokun's hand.

As soon as the little boy sitting in the nurse's arms saw Li Kun, he immediately became a little unhappy, his little eyes rolled around, and he was even more unhappy to see that he was still holding his mother's hand!
He yelled at Song Qingyue: "Da da! Da da! Da da hug!"

"Oh! Your Majesty!" Shen Guilan exclaimed in surprise, "Young master will say hug!"

Song Qingyue was also taken aback, and walked quickly over happily, hugged the second cub into her arms, and kissed him on the cheek: "We are rich and honored to say we hugged him!"

"Da da! Da da hug!"

"Yeah, mom is hugging! Mom is hugging you! Brother is here to see you. This is brother, Ah Heng, brother!"

Seeing the little brother, Li Kun immediately stepped forward and snatched the little guy out of his mother's arms.

Although he didn't admit it, he really didn't like to see his mother hugging his younger brother and kissing him in his heart.After all, he was not in Taiyuan when his younger brother was born, and he had only met this second younger brother for a few days.

Song Qingyue didn't expose him, she just patted his little head and praised him for being a good brother.

Li Kun hummed with a small nose, pointed at the rice paste he and his mother had just made, and said, "Did you see that? It was made by my mother and my elder brother myself! Eat obediently later, do you understand?"

But Li Fugui didn't seem to buy into him at all. He turned his little head to the side, desperately trying to look at Song Qingyue, and screamed like a slaughtered pig: "Da da! Da da! Da da!"

Seeing that Song Qingyue didn't intend to come over to hug her, she let out a wow and started crying loudly.

Li Kun became anxious: "Ah! I said what's wrong with you?! Why are you crying? Don't cry! Li Heng, do you hear that? Don't cry!"

Being beaten up by this mother-robber, the little guy cried even harder.

The nanny Shen Guilan anxiously took small steps on both feet, looked at Song Qingyue pitifully, and begged her to bring the young master back quickly.

Song Qingyue was helpless, sighed secretly in her heart, touched Li Kun's head and said, "My brother doesn't know you very well, from now on you come to see him every day, hug him, feed him delicious food, he will like you We Akun are so nice, who wouldn't like you, right?"

Li Kun was praised by his mother again, so he returned his younger brother to Song Qingyue in embarrassment.

The little guy ate up the last bowl of rice porridge.

This time Song Qingyue sent two first-class maidservants from Wufangzhai to look after the nanny, and she didn't allow Nanny Bai to come over, and she wouldn't let her feed more if she said she couldn't feed her more.

Look, the child is hungry, even if it is the first time to eat complementary food, he eats well!

In the hidden mansion, the family atmosphere was quite harmonious under Song Qingyue's full support. Li Xiaokun successfully accepted Li Heng as the second younger brother, and threatened to become the best eldest brother under Song Qingyue's various tricks.

As for what the kid thinks, Song Qingyue can't help it. She can't accept that she has a big brother who is more than six years older than herself.

In the middle of the court, there was a lot of discussion about the emperor's upcoming crown prince.

In fact, before announcing the establishment of the prince, the emperor was not going to announce the matter.

In his view, no matter from Li Zhao's status as the eldest son, from Li Zhao's achievements in these years, or from his performance in governing the region in Shanxi, it is only natural and logical to make Li Zhao the crown prince. Things don't need anyone's consent at all, and they don't need to be discussed by ministers.

Li Zhao was supposed to be the prince in the first place, but it was only postponed so that he could go to Taiyuan to build an arsenal.

However, many self-righteous ministers in the court don't think so, and Zhang Tianshi of Tianshi Mansion in Longhushan, Jiangxi doesn't think so either.

Li Zhao advocated that officials and gentry should pay grain together. During Shanxi’s ruling period, he sent soldiers to the localities many times to clean up the land. He even advocated a stepped land tax, that is, people with more fields should pay more taxes. Don't let the big landlords survive?
Is it okay to make him the prince?
Longhushan Tianshi Mansion is a super landlord with more than [-] mu of land.

When Li Zhao was right with monks and priests, he could not understand him anymore.

It's a pity that at the beginning of this year, the monks and priests were outraged in the capital. He didn't dare to say anything. He even wrote to the emperor to reprimand his disciple Xu Zhenren for what he had done, and expressed his willingness to expel Xu Zhenren from the sect on behalf of Tianshi Mansion.

But now, Li Zhao is going to be crowned prince!
This is not good! (end of this chapter)
