After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 34 The emperor is a daughter slave

After the banquet started, the emperor still couldn't bear to leave his daughter to others. He played with her with a rattle and didn't care about the meal at all.

The ministers and family members below glanced over from time to time.

The queen gave the emperor a piece of meat, with a graceful and gentle look on her face: "Your Majesty, try this roasted lamb leg. It won't taste good when it's cold."

By explicitly letting the emperor taste the food, he was actually reminding him to stop eating in moderation.

The emperor didn't seem to understand what she meant, "Ms. An, I'm holding Wanwan, and I don't have any hands to spare. Feed me."

Queen: "..."

The corner of her mouth twitched. She didn't want to refuse the emperor openly in front of the public, so she picked up the piece of roasted lamb leg and brought it to the emperor's mouth.

Viewed from the side, the queen's movements were elegant and calm, and her smile was bright and dignified. However, only the emperor knew that the half of the face that the queen was facing towards him was smiling horribly, and knives seemed to fly towards him from her eyes.

He knew he was in the wrong, so after eating the mutton, he smiled flatteringly at her.

Everyone had known for a long time that the relationship between the emperor and the empress was very good - this could be seen from the fact that His Majesty repeatedly rejected the ministers' suggestions to expand the harem.

But after seeing it with my own eyes, I realized that this was not an ordinary act at all. It was actually a show of affection in front of the whole palace.

It's like this on the surface, but I'm afraid it's even worse in private.

"Wow..." The little princess cried for some reason.

The emperor suddenly panicked and hurriedly stood up, hugged his daughter and rocked her gently, acting as a human cradle.

"Oh, don't cry. Don't cry. Wanwan is not afraid. Daddy is here."

Everyone: "..."

Your Majesty, your way of coaxing children is too skillful!

But what’s even more surprising is yet to come.

The coaxed little princess stopped crying. Her little hands and feet began to move restlessly, and one of her little feet unexpectedly kicked the emperor in the face.

The queen was calm.

This is not the first time that His Majesty has been stepped on by Wanwan.

The emperor himself didn't take it seriously and even praised his daughter: "Wanwan's legs and feet are getting stronger and stronger."

But others can't calm down.

The majestic king of a country was kicked in the nose!
The always rigid Left Prime Minister couldn't help but stand up, "Your Majesty, you must have a certain temper when you indulge the little princess. How can you allow the little princess to step on your face? How unbecoming is this!"

The emperor was unhappy when he heard this. What would happen if his father stepped on his face by his daughter?When Wanwan grows up, he will let her ride on his head!

"Xiang Cui, what does this have to do with decency? This is obviously a family happiness. Could it be that Cui Xiang also talks about decency with his children and grandchildren at home?"

Cui Xiang was about to retort, but Zuo Xiang stood up and smoothed things over: "Alright, Cui Xiang, today is the little princess's full moon banquet. Put aside all your propriety and enjoy yourself. Come on, I'll give you a toast."

Cui Xiang glared at Zuo Xiang. This colleague who was born in a poor family only flattered the emperor and had no official integrity at all. It was really a shame to be associated with him!
When he was about to discuss it further, the lady next to him tugged on his sleeve.

Cui Xiang glanced at his wife, and after receiving the disapproval in her eyes, his expression froze, and he finally sat down.

Because of this, the atmosphere of the banquet was a little tense. King Rui, the emperor's younger brother, stood up and said: "Brother, I have prepared a gift for my little niece. I hope that Wanwan will be safe from illness and disaster, and be safe and happy forever." .”

When the emperor heard this congratulatory message, he felt relieved and became interested, "Oh, what is it?"

King Rui clapped his hands, and a chamberlain entered the palace carrying a tray covered with a red cloth.

King Rui stepped forward and uncovered the red cloth, revealing a piece of wood about a foot high (about 33 centimeters). A phoenix was carved on the wood, with the feathers on it clearly visible and lifelike.

Underneath is a transparent and flawless white jade base, which shines brightly and moistly like water under the lights in the hall.The emperor held the little princess and walked down the steps, "What is this?"

King Rui: "Brother, this is Fengshou wood, also known as Changchun wood. If you place it in the house, the surroundings will be as warm as spring."

The emperor's eyes lit up, "Seriously?"

Prince Rui: "If you don't believe it, brother, just ask someone to remove the fire cauldron from the palace. We will know after a while."

At the emperor's order, the bronze tripod burning charcoal was removed from the palace.

Without the heat emitted by the bronze tripod, the temperature in the hall quickly dropped. However, not long after, the hall became warm again.

And the warmth at this moment, as King Rui said, was as warm as spring, a bright and natural warmth, as if there was really a warm sun shining on them.

Rather than the scorching and suffocating heat from before.

The emperor was overjoyed and said, "Okay, with this Phoenix Head Wood, I will no longer be afraid of Wanwan getting cold at night."

Children have poor resistance and may be gone if the wind blows.

Therefore, he always had trouble sleeping at night, worried that Wanwan would catch a cold.

Placing charcoal basins around the house can keep Wanwan from getting cold, but this will make the room very stuffy, which is also not good for Wanwan.

What if the child can't take a breath and suffocates to death?
Every time he thought about this, the old father, the emperor, was filled with worry.

But it’s different with Fengshoumu!

Fengshou wood can keep the room warm without making the air in the room stagnant and making people feel stuffy.

With King Rui taking the lead, others also offered congratulatory gifts.

Pearls from the South China Sea, exotic treasures from overseas, treasures from the Western Regions...all kinds of rare treasures were presented, which was dizzying and shocking.

On the other side, the Lin family.

Qin Feng drank the full moon wine, and after coming out of Lin's house, his figure escaped into the night, all the way to the foot of Kaiyang Peak Mountain.

There is a secret passage in the heart of the mountain, which leads directly from the foot of the mountain to a courtyard halfway up the mountain.

This was dug out secretly by the Lin family to make it easier for Lin Chengjun, who lived in seclusion here, to go up and down the mountain.

It's a pity that Lin Chengjun never went down the mountain again after moving into the other courtyard, and he didn't use it even once.

As a general of the Lin family, Qin Feng, a confidant of Lin Wushang, the heir apparent, naturally knew about this passage.

He did not enter the passage, but within a quarter of an hour he arrived at the courtyard halfway up the mountain and walked out of a rockery.

In the main courtyard, Lin Wushang and a man were sitting opposite each other. Between the two of them was a chessboard with black and white chess pieces intertwined, making it look like they were fighting in a stalemate.

This man looked to be about 26 years old, handsome and handsome, with a pale complexion as if he had not seen the sun all year round.

It was Lin Wushang's second uncle, Lin Chengjun.

After playing a game of chess, Lin Chengjun looked at the night outside the window and said, "It's getting late, Xiaojiu, go back and have a rest."

Lin Wushang said goodbye to his second uncle and returned to his yard.

"Your Majesty, you are back." Qin Feng greeted him.

Lin Wushang sat cross-legged on the mat and poured a cup of hot tea for Qin Feng opposite him, "Why are you here at this time? But what happened?"
