Jiao Luan

Chapter 329
On July 25, the 28th year of Taiping, the crown princess gave birth to the eldest grandson of the emperor. The emperor was very happy when he heard about it, and personally bestowed him with the name Xuan.

When Cheng Wei left the palace in the early morning of the next day, the princess was exhausted after giving birth and was still asleep.

She took a deep look at the white jade pillars carved with dragons and phoenixes and the golden and red palace lanterns swaying in the wind under the eaves. When she turned around, her mood was relaxed yet somewhat complicated.

Finally, both mother and child are safe!
She lifted her feet and walked down the steps slowly, when she suddenly heard someone calling softly from behind: "Miss San, please wait a moment."

Cheng Wei turned around, and saw Juan'er running over in small steps, she seemed to be in a hurry, her face was flushed.

"Juan'er?"

Hearing Cheng Wei say her name, Juan'er's eyes sparkled, and she took out a small cloth bag from her bosom and handed it over: "Third Miss, I heard that you are leaving the palace this morning, this is what I gave you."

Cheng Wei was a little surprised: "No need—"

Juan'er hurriedly waved her hands: "Third Miss, you have cured the annoying problem of the servant girl. The servant girl has nothing to repay. This is just a little care of the servant girl. Please accept it."

When Cheng Wei heard it, she stopped rejecting it, opened it and said with a smile, "Then thank you Juan'er."

Inside the cloth bag is a Begonia silk flower, the light red petals are layered on top of each other, and the tender yellow stamen in the middle seems to be stained with honey powder, just like the real thing.

Cheng Ya once rewarded Cheng Wei with a box of better silk flowers than this one, but a little maid can take it out, which shows her heart.

Cheng Wei smiled brightly, and casually pinned the silk flower in her hair, with a sincere tone: "I like it very much."

Juan'er's pretty face blushed, "It's as long as the third girl likes it, and this servant will not waste your time."

The little maid turned around and left with a happy face, and pushed the person behind the pillar: "If you don't go there, the third girl is really leaving."

Behind the colonnade, a few young maids pushed and shoved each other and surrounded them with a whimper.

But in the blink of an eye, Cheng Wei had so many gadgets in his hands that he could hardly hold them down.

The little palace maid called Chan'er timidly handed over a wicker basket: "Third Miss, I have nothing to give you, if you don't mind, you can use this to hold presents."

Cheng Wei walked out with a basket of gadgets, the smile on his mouth was put away until he saw Cheng Yao beside Deng An, the great eunuch of Changchun Palace.

"Keep Eunuch Deng waiting for a long time." Cheng Wei greeted politely without looking sideways.

Deng An explained while leading the way: "Miss Xiao wants to go back to the uncle's house for a short stay, and the empress asked the slaves to send the two girls back together."

Cheng Wei nodded to show that she understood, wondering in her heart that Cheng Yao was willing to leave the palace and go back to live in the uncle's mansion, so she took a direct look at her.

Cheng Yao habitually showed a smile, feeling unspeakable.

She never expected that the crown prince, who knows the taste of the marrow, would be so bold and reckless. He went to the Changchun Palace more and more frequently. He often pulled her to pick a remote place and set it up. Once, under the eyes of the imperial concubine. , dared to put his hand in her skirt.

Cheng Yao's body is different, she got interesting after several personnel incidents, but she is not a crown prince, how can she bear the consequences of being discovered, on balance, she can only go back to the uncle's mansion to take refuge temporarily.

The two had different thoughts and got on the soft sedan in silence.

Riding with Cheng Yao, Cheng Wei was a little bored, lifted the corner of the curtain to look out casually, and couldn't help being stunned when he saw it.

That cyan figure that caught a glimpse, who else is it if it's not the second brother!

Cheng Wei poked his head out hurriedly, but the second brother was nowhere to be seen.

"Ahem." Deng An, who was walking beside the sedan chair, coughed lightly.

Cheng Wei had no choice but to put down the curtain, and returned to the uncle's mansion full of doubts.

As soon as she entered the door, Mrs. Meng stood up with an unconcealed expression of excitement: "How about the Crown Princess and the little emperor's grandson?"

"Mother and child are safe, and the little emperor's grandson weighs a lot."

"Thank you, God bless." Mrs. Meng closed her eyes and murmured.

The corner of Cheng Wei's mouth twitched into a sarcastic smile.

Has God ever blessed anyone?

"The Crown Princess just gave birth, and it's time for her body to recuperate. Why did you leave the palace today?"

Without waiting for Cheng Wei's answer, Cheng Yao interjected: "The imperial concubine said that the princess concubine is going to give birth, and it will be inconvenient for Cousin Wei to stay in the East Palace for a long time, so she was scheduled to leave the palace today."

Mrs. Meng closed her smile.

From this point of view, it must be that Wei'er has offended the imperial concubine and empress.

"What about you, Xiao'er?"

Cheng Yao said with a smile: "Xiao'er misses her aunt and grandma, so I specially ask the imperial concubine to show her kindness and come back to the uncle's house for a short stay."

Only then did Mrs. Meng show off her face: "It's good to be back, it's good to be back. You don't need to go to other places, just live in Nian Song Tang with your aunt."

"Then Xiao'er will bother my aunt from now on."

She didn't want to step into that Suiyu Residence again.

Seeing that the grandfather and grandson were enjoying themselves happily, Cheng Wei twitched the corners of his mouth and took the opportunity to leave.

Mrs. Meng raised her eyelids to agree, and she lost her previous enthusiasm.

Cheng Wei is no longer an ignorant child, she understands the reason for the change in Mrs. Meng's attitude, but finds that she is too lazy to raise her anger, so she goes to Yiran Garden.

When I met Mrs. Han, I was concerned and asked, Cheng Wei replied one by one, and asked: "Mother, when I left the palace, I accidentally saw the second brother. Isn't he working in the Imperial Academy? Why did he come in so early in the morning?" palace?"

Mentioning this, Han's face was full of smiles: "I don't understand the outside world, but everyone in the house knows about it. A few days ago, the emperor wanted to choose someone to give lectures to the sixth prince, so he personally ordered your second brother .”

Lectures to a little prince are nothing, but the meaning is different if the emperor hand-picked them.

Cheng Wei had an inexplicable dislike for the imperial palace, upon hearing this, he couldn't help but frown: "Don't the princes have masters, and those attendants and lecturers from the Imperial Academy, how could you let the second elder brother go?"

Han patted Cheng Wei lightly, and said angrily, "Is this also nonsense?"

She unconsciously lowered her voice, and explained: "Apart from the crown prince and the first prince who has already been crowned king, there are only the fifth prince and the sixth prince in the palace. The sixth prince is young, and I heard that he is playful, so he ran away out of breath. How many masters, the emperor let your second brother go to the palace every three days to give lectures."

"Because the second brother is good at learning?" Cheng Wei still felt something was wrong.

Daliang Chongwen, there are many great Confucians with knowledge and qualifications, and the number one scholar is not only the second brother, why is it the second brother's turn?

Han's face was full of pride: "Your second brother is the number one scholar, of course knowledge is good. But there are many people like this. If you want to talk about the reason for choosing your second brother... Cough cough, the emperor said to people personally that your second brother Being handsome, the Sixth Prince might be able to listen more seriously."

Of course, the original words of Emperor Changqing could not be so straightforward. After the spread, everyone understood the meaning instantly. In the past few days, there have been more girls and daughters-in-law hanging out at the gate of the uncle's mansion.

It is really a joy in life for the eldest son and eldest daughter to be so competitive.

Han Shi picked up the azure tea Gu and took a sip, feeling refreshed all over.

Cheng Wei was dumbfounded.

It turns out that the emperor also looks at the face!What if she is more worried?
