Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Little one." Baili looked at Defang and was moved to cry, Defang pinched Baili's face, "Okay, what's it like, Gu Wang can tell you, going to your mansion is not just to celebrate your birthday , the most important thing is to look at Haobo, can this reason work?"

Baili nodded vigorously, "Yes! Yes! Okay!"

Defang walked out of the palace gate with a smile. At this moment, a court lady was just about to enter the palace gate. Seeing Defang, she stepped forward and saluted, "Slaves see the prince for thousands of years."

Defang took a look, "Who is this?"

Baili turned his head to look, "My lord, this is Huixin, Princess Shouchang's maid."

"Huixin?" Defang looked at the maid, "Why did you come back from the palace so late?"

"Return to the prince," the maid Huixin said, "Since the queen mother fell ill, the eldest princess will send slaves to Daxiangguo Temple to bring morning incense back to the palace every day, and then light it in the Buddhist hall to chant sutras and pray for blessings."

"Chenxiang? What is it?"

"Returning to the prince, after the monks of the Daxiangguo Temple put incense on the Buddha's head every morning, they put the newly made incense on the table, and the abbot chanted the scriptures for a whole day. The morning incense has the meaning of blessing, so the eldest princess In the morning, I will light this incense in the Buddhist hall to pray for the Queen Mother."

"The eldest princess is really caring." De Fang nodded, "How is the eldest princess recently?"

"Returning to your lord, the eldest princess has been sleeping late and getting up early recently, and she doesn't eat much, and her complexion is not good."

"Why is this? Has the imperial physician seen it?"

"Going back to the prince, the eldest princess is not sick, but because she is worried about the queen mother, she kneels down and chant sutras in the Buddhist hall all day long."

"In the Buddhist hall all day?"

"Yes, my lord"

"How long has it been?"

The maid said sadly, "It's been more than a month. In recent days, because I heard that the queen mother's condition has worsened, the eldest princess has even less sleep. Sometimes she just sits on a chair and takes a few sips of tea before starting to chant scriptures again. The eldest princess' knee They're all a little swollen."

"What!" Defang was very anxious when she heard that, "Then why don't you persuade the eldest princess?"

"The servants persuaded me. But the eldest princess insisted."

"Does Your Majesty know?"

"The Eldest Princess won't let the servants tell His Majesty. He said that His Majesty is tired of worrying about the Queen Mother every day. How can I let His Majesty worry about it?"

"Then you should come and tell the lonely king!" Defang sighed, "Get up and take the lonely king to see the eldest princess."

"Yes, my lord." The maid stood up, and brought Defang and Baili to the inner courtyard of Princess Shouchang, when she heard the soft sound of wooden fish, Defang walked to the door of the Buddhist hall in search of the sound, and gently opened the door Seeing Princess Shouchang kneeling in front of the Guanyin statue and reciting scriptures, the incense burner on the table in front of her was almost full of ashes, and the inserted incense was burning quietly, Defang said softly, "Rongning, come here, brother." gone."

The eldest princess who was chanting didn't seem to hear it, so Defang called softly twice, and then the eldest princess turned her head and saw that it was Defang. I'm sorry, Defang and Baili hurriedly supported the eldest princess to get up slowly. Seeing her like this, Defang was very distressed, "Rongning, what are you doing, are you not caring about your own body?"

The eldest princess slowed down and smiled slightly, "Brother Wang, I don't know that you are coming today, but you haven't prepared refreshments yet, my little sister is rude."

"It's all like this, what are you talking about? Come on, sit down." Defang helped the eldest princess to sit firmly and said, "Rongning, why are you still kneeling when your knees are swollen? You will hurt your body like this."
