The imperial concubine favors the crown of the harem

Chapter 100
"Well, that makes sense."

While talking, Xia An brought a bowl of chilled sour plum soup from outside.

Quenches thirst very much.

The emperor took it and swallowed it up, feeling a little unsatisfied, but he still didn't ask for another bowl.

As an emperor, he has long been used to controlling his desires.

It's not a good thing to be greedy for coolness in summer.

The two gossiped for a few words, and then they saw Madam Du leading the second prince over from the backyard, went straight into the inner room, and greeted the emperor politely.

The emperor frowned helplessly.

"Nurse, I told you that you don't need to be polite."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion, but the rules cannot be broken."

Then he waved to the second prince and said in a calm tone.

"I haven't come here for two days, but you seem to be much more energetic than before."

"Thank you, Father, for your concern. Madam Lin, Madam Du, and everyone in Huifang Yayuan are very kind to my son, so I can eat and sleep."

The emperor reached out and touched his chubby head, and smiled gratifiedly.

I really feel that children, like this orange tree, need suitable soil and careful watering.

Otherwise, how can there be a saying that "oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and oranges born in Huaibei are trifoliate oranges".

"I came today to tell you something."

"Father, please speak."

"Concubine Lin Gui said that she wants to hold a birthday banquet for you, and it will be held on the water pavilion of Lianhu Lake not far from here. What do you think?"

Concubine Lin?
The second prince was full of doubts, he had very little contact with Concubine Lin Gui.

Including her daughter, the only princess of the father, who is also very strange.

For such a strange person, suddenly wanting to give him a birthday party, and the tone of this tone is no small matter.

He already knew in his heart that there must be something tricky.

From the bottom of my heart, I don't like it.

After a moment of silence, he spoke slowly.

"My son doesn't like to organize birthday banquets wantonly, so I ask my father to be considerate."

"Why is this?"

"My son's... biological mother passed away due to dystocia, so my son's birthday is my mother's death day. If it's just a small gathering in the courtyard, it's justified, but if it's a big celebration, my son Ashamed to be the Son of Man."

What the second prince said was well-founded.

Concubine Su has been away for so long that everyone has somewhat overlooked the date of her death.

In other words, no one in the whole palace remembered it.

Therefore, when he suddenly mentioned it like this, everyone fell silent.

Especially the emperor.

At this moment, he was even a little vague about Concubine Su's appearance, and she was very low-key in his memory.

The emperor didn't even know what she liked to eat and what to use.

Not to mention anything else.

Seeing a flash of self-blame in the emperor's eyes, Madam Du suddenly spoke comfortingly.

"Your Majesty, this old slave has something to say, and I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Mammy said so."

"This old slave thinks the second prince's words are justified, but Concubine Lin Gui's move is also a good intention. If she directly refuses, I'm afraid there will be some unnecessary misunderstandings. Why don't you use the name of the second prince to recite the seven seven May she ascend to the Paradise of Paradise as soon as possible, so that the second prince can be respected and filial."

The emperor nodded, this method is tactful.

He didn't refute Concubine Lin Gui's face, and he could give up the birthday banquet.

So he thought about it and said.

"Dong Yuzhong."

"The slave is here."

"I pass on my decree to posthumously concubine Su as concubine Su, and invite Master Zhiyuan, the abbot of Baolin Temple, to bring his disciples into the palace to chant sutras for Concubine Su!"

"Yes."

Then he looked at the second prince and added something.

"The second prince's filial piety touched the heavens, and my heart is very comforted. From now on, I will be named King of Han and give Yunzhou his fiefdom."

The second prince was stunned when he heard this.

It was completely unexpected that so much would be involved in a matter of a birthday party.

Not only can the mother be chased after her title, but even herself has become the "King of Han"!
Although it sounds like a prince in name only, but there are only two princes in the palace right now.

It is the third prince who is obviously healthy and intelligent, but he is the first to be crowned king!
This is really puzzling.

Lin Wanyi was also shocked, but she was not that brainless person.

Although the emperor had some partiality for the second prince due to guilt, it was not enough for him to really disregard the second prince's physical condition and plan to entrust the country.

So, there must be another reason.

If it wasn't from the second prince, then it was from the third prince.

Knock the mountain and shake the tiger?

Or to lure it?

Lin Wanyi couldn't figure it out.

After taking a look at Qiu Ming, he could understand it very quickly.

Dong Yuzhong, as a servant in front of the imperial court, naturally understood why the emperor did this.

So asking Qiu Ming to inquire about it is understandable.

On the other hand, Madam Du looked coldly at the exchange of eyes between Lin Wanyi and Qiu Ming, pursing her mouth and thinking about something.

Lin Wanyi patted the second prince's shoulder lightly, reminding him gently.

"Second prince, thank you quickly."

Only then did the second prince react.

Immediately knelt down and respectfully kowtowed to thank you.

The emperor looked at his immature face, and the complex emotions in his eyes were finally melted by the affection between father and son.

"Well, get up. You should take care of your bones first, and when spring comes next year, I will find you a riding and archery master. If you practice more, your physique will no longer be as weak as it used to be."

The second prince was speechless.

He has grown so big, not to mention riding and shooting, even running and jumping in daily life is rarely done.

Otherwise you will be out of breath.

The emperor really thinks highly of him, this weak disease that can't be cured after six years, will heal after more than half a year?

Although I thought so in my heart, I was still eager to try on my face.

After all, he once heard from the old man in the palace that his father also started to practice riding and shooting since he was a child.

Injury is like a routine, but it has trained his mind to be extremely strong.

"Yes, I know, I must practice hard and live up to my father's expectations."

"Ah."

Seeing their father and son talking harmoniously, Lin Wanyi also felt happy.

This scene of fatherly kindness and filial piety reminded her of many things in the past.

She was also loved and raised by her parents and grandfather's family since she was a child.

Although she was often oppressed by Ronghetang and Xikuayuan in the prime minister's mansion, she could not take those people and things to heart.

Just remember the good and warm ones.

During the days she spent with the second prince, she felt that this child was really good.

Such a small person, after experiencing the world's sophistication in this palace, and the different treatment of warm and cold, still maintains a sincere heart.

Although I haven't learned much at the moment, but in time, I will definitely have good knowledge.

As a royal heir, in fact, it is not necessarily the best to be in a high position.

It would be a good thing if one could enjoy a lifetime of peace without any worries.
