The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 153

After Concubine Xian and the others left, the Queen picked up Brother Fu and patted him gently, and let Ah Ju sit down to coax the child.

Her face was calm and her voice was soft, as if she had long been used to Concubine Xian Shu's disrespect, or she didn't take it to heart at all.

Ah Ju was quite surprised, but her daughter was crying too much, she didn't have the heart to think too much, after thanking the queen, she quickly sat down with her daughter in her arms, coaxing her softly.Cancan has a big temper because she has a big temper, and it's easy to coax when she cries. She opened her watery eyes and looked around, and saw that there were not so many strangers around her, and the two most fierce ones were gone. She blinked and turned her head. Seeing the boy crying in the queen's arms, the tears slowly stopped.

Ah Ju took out the handkerchief to dry her daughter, without distraction.

Concubine Jing really liked Cancan's obedience. She sat on the other side of the queen and patted her son's little shoulder, coaxing her son with a smile: "Brother Fu, don't cry, my sister won't cry anymore."

Fu Geer cried for a while, rubbed his eyes and looked at his younger sister. Seeing that the younger sister really stopped crying, he continued to twitch twice, and stopped crying.

The queen saw the two little guys getting along for the first time, and was very surprised. While wiping away tears from her grandson, the queen asked him: "Brother Fu cried when his sister was bullied, didn't he? Geer Fu is so good. Since I was young, I knew to look towards my sister."

Fu Geer nodded, reached out to his sister, and then patted himself beside him, "Sister sit here."

Cancan pursed her lips and looked at him.

Aju lowered her head and asked her daughter: "Cancan, do you want to go there?" She didn't want her daughter to go there, and now she just wanted to leave the palace quickly, where she was worried about offending nobles even if she said a word, but she was looking forward to her daughter going there.I have already offended Concubine Shu's mother and daughter, if I offend the Queen again...

Cancan didn't know her mother's worry, so she turned her head and leaned into her mother's arms, hugging her tightly, not wanting to go anywhere.

Ah Ju was distressed and nervous, and looked at the queen anxiously.Even if the queen doesn't care about Concubine Xian and the others, she must be concerned about losing her majesty in front of a married woman. Now that her daughter's situation is getting worse, will the queen take advantage of it?

The queen just smiled, waved her hands before Ah Ju was about to kneel, picked up her grandson and joked, "What should I do, Cancan doesn't want to play with Fu Geer, should Fu Ge coax my sister?" The grandson doesn't like to talk, Sometimes he looked very smart, and sometimes he seemed stupid. She was really worried that there was something wrong with her grandson.Just as the daughter-in-law said, the grandson is special to the little girl of the Zhao family, maybe it is a bit of fate.

Fu Geer stared at the back of his sister's head, and it took a long time before he said "Sister, don't cry".

Cancan turned her head to look at him, then flung herself back into her mother's arms.

Aju really didn't know what to do.

Princess Jing relieved her and said: "Most likely, Cancan has admitted her birth, so don't think too much about it. Well, going out early in the morning is enough trouble, Madam, go back first, I will accompany the mother to talk, so I won't see you off."

Ah Ju got up to thank her, and bowed to the queen to say goodbye.

Concubine Jing watched her go out, and when only their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and the queen's confidantes were left in the palace, she darkened her face and complained in a low voice: "Mother, you are the empress of the palace, and the virtuous concubine Shu is so disrespectful, you should be punished slightly." Yes. Now I dare to show you face in front of a married woman, but I don’t know how crazy I will be in the future! Mrs. Zhao is not a person with a bad mouth, let me tell you about it, the queen mother..."

"If she doesn't pass it on, no one will talk about it?" The queen said indifferently, her face still calm, "The queen mother is old and her health is not good. I don't want to fight with them anymore, I just want to live in peace by myself. Come here , I will hug my grandson."

Princess Jing felt sorry for her mother-in-law, "Then you..."

The queen shook her head slightly at her, patted her grandson's little head, and lowered her voice: "It's not easy to be a queen. In the sixth courtyard of the harem, the emperor treats you well. You can stand up without you fighting. The emperor doesn't want to see you. No matter how upright you are, you will only become a laughingstock. Instead of struggling to fight with others, it is better to take a step back and enjoy leisure. After all, I am already the queen, so what can I win if I continue to fight? The heart of your father? No use. His seat?"

The queen raised her eyes and looked at Princess Jing: "Do you want Yun'er?"

Princess Jing pursed her lips, and tears suddenly fell, "I don't care if I want it or not, I just feel sorry for him, in terms of talent, he can't lose to anyone, but because of his poor health, he can only be trapped in the palace all year round as an idle prince. Like the fourth brother, he must not be destined, that seat is destined to fall on Concubine Xian's two children, I am not worthy of being a mother."

"Why are you crying for New Year's Eve? I see that you are usually stable, but now you are like Brother Fu and get rid of golden bumps." The queen smiled, picked up her grandson and asked him to wipe his mother's face, and said chattingly: "Don't feel bad, at least for now No need, remember, tell Yun'er when you go back, don't fight for anything, your father is not stupid, he doesn't care about the harem affairs, he knows the affairs of the court better than anyone else, whoever fights will get nothing You too, when you sit in my seat in the future, you must not interfere in the front matter."

Princess Jing looked up in shock.

The queen used a determined tone, not if...

The queen didn't look at her, and got up tiredly, "I'm tired, you go home early, and come back to chat with me in two days."

When the water is full, it overflows, and when the moon is full, it loses. Sometimes there is no struggle, but there is still struggle.

Outside the palace, Zhao Chen had been waiting for a long time, seeing his wife finally came out, he strode forward, "Why did you come out so late?"

Just as Ah Ju was about to explain, Cancan heard Daddy's voice next to her, poked her head out of the wet nurse's arms, and called Daddy crisply.Now it's not as cold as it was when it came, and the little girl can keep out the cold with a cloak wrapped around her, so Cancan can see her father.

Zhao Chen could tell at a glance that his daughter had cried, and took his daughter. He looked at the majestic palace in front of him, and without rushing to ask, he led his wife towards the carriage. got the carriage.

"Cancan crying?" Zhao Chen kissed his daughter, smelled the familiar fragrance, knew that her daughter had applied face cream, and was slightly relieved.

Ah Ju leaned on his broad shoulders, held her daughter's little hand with one hand, and briefly explained what happened inside, but she didn't feel wronged for her daughter so much.Thinking about it carefully, neither of their wives suffered a disadvantage in the palace. Princess Jiarou tried to snatch her daughter but failed, but was reprimanded by Princess Jing for not being ignorant of the rules.

She was just afraid, if the queen didn't stop Princess Jiarou...

Zhao Chen was on duty in the palace, so he knew the tempers of the princes and daughters.Although there is Rou in her title, Princess Jiarou has already been spoiled by the emperor to the point of lawlessness. Her temperament has nothing to do with Rou. It is said that she once beat a nobleman's white cat to death.The bad luck for finding that nobleman is because the emperor pampered her for several days in a row, but what about being pampered?The emperor didn't make the decision for the nobleman, he lightly scolded his daughter and that's all.

Knowing the character of Princess Jiarou, after hearing his wife say that the other party wanted to steal his daughter, Zhao Chen felt a sense of tyranny in his heart.What does Princess Jiarou think of his daughter as a cat or dog who can play with her?
For the sake of her being a child this time, he doesn't care about her. If there is another time, it can't be a temporary mischief. Even if she is a princess, he can't help her to learn a lesson.

The matter in Fengyi Palace is just that the children have their own tempers, it's nothing. That night when Emperor Tang Wen came to Fengyi Palace as usual, the queen didn't mention it, she only picked interesting things about her grandson to tell the man.Emperor Tang Wen liked his grandson, and he listened with great interest. He looked at the soft-spoken wife in his arms. Although he had no desire for men and women, the feeling of peace in his heart was actually more worth savoring than the momentary ecstasy after being happy.

He is in his 40s, and finally has a grandson, so it would be great if he could share a family relationship with his wife.

In the past, I lived in Fengyi Palace on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. This year, the great victory in southern Xinjiang, the good weather everywhere, and the grandson of the emperor gradually grew up. Emperor Tang Wen was very happy. He stayed in Fengyi Palace for half a month, and went to Xian after the Lantern Festival Concubine's Zhaoyang Palace.The empress is not feeling well, and she has long since stopped attending bedtime. Emperor Tang Wen only visited London once in half a month.

Men are the best talkers on the bed. Concubine Xian finished her panting and began to count small accounts, lying on Tang Wendi's body and complaining: "The emperor hasn't come to my place for a long time, I thought the emperor had forgotten me."

Emperor Tang Wen had expected it a long time ago, and hurriedly said some sweet words to coax people.

Concubine Xian is not stupid. Ever since King Jing gave birth to the eldest grandson, Emperor Tang Wen's attitude towards Fengyi Palace has improved a lot, even though his love is far inferior to her.She sighed, pressed against the man's chest and said, "I really envy my sister, who has a grandson in her arms, but it's a pity that Tao'er didn't live up to it, and the wives and concubines have not moved until now."

Emperor Tang Wen also worried about this, thought for a while and said: "This year, the Peony Banquet invites more officials' daughters. The fourth child will choose the princess, and the third child, you should watch carefully, and then choose a side concubine for him. The appearance is not important, so choose the concubine." It is easy to give birth, and then choose a good-looking one for him, lest he will be dissatisfied."

Concubine Xian raised her head in surprise, and wanted to thank her, but she asked a little worriedly: "Will King Jing also choose a side concubine? If not, Tao'er will forget it, and it's not easy to surpass elder brother."

"It's okay, the second child is weak, and besides, he has already had a son, and a concubine in the backyard announced the happy news again. For the time being, he doesn't need to add another man. He knows it well, and he won't envy the third child for this." Tang Wendi smiled slightly. road.

It was only then that Concubine Xian knew that Prince Jing's Mansion was about to have a baby again, and she felt as if she had overturned the vinegar bucket. She rolled her eyes, said something else, and then boasted: "I saw Wu Yinghou's daughter that day, she is so young and well-behaved. Sensible, Wu Yinghou and his wife are both outstanding in appearance, the little girl will definitely be a beauty in the future, no wonder Fu Geer likes to play with her, his mother is also in pain, Jiarou just teased the little girl, so she beat her second sister-in-law admonishment."

Emperor Tang Wen paused for a moment while stroking her back, and asked curiously, "Is there such a thing?"

Concubine Xian said it again, it was all the truth, and finally sighed: "Jia Ruanzi is indeed a bit arrogant, but she is still a child, of course she likes a one-year-old little girl, and Fu Ge's mother will make friends with Mrs. Wu Yinghou You can't just reprimand, Madam Wuyinghou has gained face, Jiarou must be extremely wronged."

Even if she wanted to win over the Emperor Zhao Han, she was unwilling, but now that King Jing's Mansion wanted to win over the young Marquis Zhao Chen, she did not believe that the Emperor would be happy.

Emperor Tang Wen smiled: "Jiarou is naughty, I dare not let Brother Fu hug her, the little girl from Wu Yinghou's family is a few months younger than Brother Fu, of course he dare not give her a lesson, the second daughter-in-law taught me a lesson. , but it is more appropriate to change it to private lessons, Jiarou is thin-skinned, and now she must be blamed."

An understatement.

Concubine Xian also took advantage of the opportunity to talk about the interesting stories between Princess Jiarou and the Fifth Prince, instead of mentioning the relationship between Prince Jing's Mansion and the Zhao family, she could just stop talking about some things, but talking too much would be counterproductive.

Emperor Wen of Tang chatted with Concubine Chong absent-mindedly, but his mind wandered elsewhere.

King Jing is weak, and has never been interested in political affairs, let alone making friends with courtiers. This time, because of a lantern, he became attached to Zhao Chen and his wife. Wang Duo, just this, was used by Concubine Xian as an argument.

The Queen never told him that.

The body that I love so much on weekdays suddenly doesn't want to touch it now.

Maybe Concubine Xian didn't even want her life for him, but people will change. In the past, she only cared about his basic necessities, but now, she cares more about his throne.
