Chapter 365: On the Birth of a Dutiful Son
The next day, Yun Fenghuang specially brought King Qin to inspect him alone, and decided to pretend to be sick in two days, so that the child could establish a filial personality.
In fact, to be fair, King Qin is not stupid.
Even compared to ordinary children, it is slightly outstanding.
The problem is that his opponent is better. The third prince has clearly restrained himself these days due to the Queen's request, and kept his level at the middle level, so that King Qin doesn't have to lose face frequently in class. But Wei Changkong and those people are not fools, so how can they not count?
Moreover, the second prince, who was twinned with the third prince, is not bad in aptitude.
Concubine Cui Shu didn't have any intentions in raising this son. Although she didn't personally give extra lessons to the second prince, she didn't suppress the child's performance.
Yun Fenghuang got a report early in the morning, saying that after the third prince went down, now the second prince named Qin Wang Rumang is on his back... The two brothers were born in the same year, but the second prince changed their adoptive mother, and the current adoptive mother Cui Lianye He is very kind to him, but because of this kindness, Cui Lianye has no intention of making him work hard at all, and expects him to drift with the tide and become an unambitious vassal king, enjoying the glory and wealth brought down by the ancestors of the Gongxiang family that is. On the other hand, King Qin, how much painstaking effort did Yun Fenghuang expend to make this child stand out?
Even up to now, I have personally gone into battle to fill in the gaps.
This situation is not as good as the third prince, who is just a tie with the second prince... Yun Fenghuang himself should feel sorry for himself.
Photo taken by Yun Fenghuang, Wei Changkong and other attendants should not take the initiative to whisper to the emperor.
But if the emperor asks about it one day, these people will definitely not help Xuanqing Palace hide it.
Instead of asking Chunjia to find out that the eldest son of the emperor is not talented, it is better to find a reason for King Qin's poor schoolwork before the emperor realizes it.
She also broke her heart, and first hinted to Luo Xun that she "harvested" a lot of prey when she helped the two children hunt, and followed her up and down, from the empress dowager to the two empress dowagers in Fuyang County, the empress, Yun Fenghuang himself, the eldest princess Minghui, the two eldest princesses Yun'an and Suian, and even the eldest princess Dongxing were all delivered. After Chen Jing made a speech, he brought some comfort to Zhou Wang and his wife.
Taking advantage of the situation, he publicized King Qin's understanding, filial piety, consideration and gentleness.
He also taught Zhaoqing to make a cage with the maids, and offered Chunjia the tits he caught casually as a treasure, saying: "Father is really hard at work all day long, and my son listens to the clear and melodious song of the tits. Dedicated to my father to have time to watch and play, to entertain the mind."
Chunjia didn't like tits at all, and based on his experience, he could tell at a glance that this kind of sparrow couldn't be kept in a cage, otherwise it wouldn't survive at all.
But his daughter's kindness made him very angry, he smiled and praised again and again, turned his head and quietly complained to Yun Fenghuang, and said: "I have already asked the people below to remember the appearance of that tit, and I will always prepare for it in the future. That's right. Otherwise, I'll be raised to death within two days, and Zhaoqing will know, so don't doubt that I don't like it, so the people below didn't take good care of it."
"Don't talk nonsense, how can our daughter be so ignorant? Tell her well, why would she deliberately harm a bird? There is no need to catch another bird for you to raise." Yun Fenghuang annoyed him for not Conscience, "When the sparrow was just caught, the concubine said it was pretty. Zhaoqing insisted on not giving it to the concubine, but gave it to His Majesty! Now the concubine feels that this daughter was raised for His Majesty. It's like a concubine's child!"
The emperor smiled and said: "You only said it looks good, but you didn't say you want it. If you want it, can the child not give it to you? It's rare for the child to think about it, so don't talk too much. It's not a troublesome thing to be left or right. "
He also said to King Qin, "This child is thoughtful. It's fine with other people. Zhou Wang and his wife... It's hard for him to think about it."
Yun Fenghuang frankly admitted that this was his own idea: "My concubine is thinking that he is the eldest son of His Majesty, so he must be more considerate, so as not to embarrass His Majesty. With Zhou Wang and his wife, I am thinking about the matter of King Fuyang , including the two empress dowagers, they don't want to. But people can't be resurrected after they die. What kind of status are the two empress dowagers and Your Majesty? It's not easy to bow to the vassal king for such a thing. Sending off black-haired people, especially Concubine Lin, who has the flesh and blood of King Fuyang at her knees, is pitiful. King Qin is young and a junior, and he came forward to mediate on his behalf. It is also to ask Zhou Wang and his wife to remember His Majesty's grace, but there is nothing wrong with it."
He also said, "He is young now, and he can't think about many things. I am a concubine, so I reminded him. In the future, he will deal with it a lot, and he will understand."
The emperor praised her for teaching children, which was Chunjia's sincere words.
Although King Qin and Zhao Qing were domineering, in his opinion, these were nothing, and it even just proved that Yun Fenghuang treated the emperor's heirs as if they were his own.
After all, who grew up being pampered, who can have no temper?
Besides, in the eyes of the emperor, it is not a matter of course that his own flesh and blood are somewhat arrogant and pampered?
As long as you don't lose the dignity of the royal children in general.
Now seeing the two children acting filially and sharing their worries, I feel more and more caring about the imperial concubine.
He stayed in Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion for a while, and left in a good mood.
Then on the second day, Yun Fenghuang fell ill because of "opening the window for the cold at night". Because of the wind and cold, he was afraid that the emperor would be sick, so Chunjia was not allowed to visit inside. It will be fine in two days, let the emperor not worry.
The wind and cold is not a serious problem, and there is an imperial physician on hand, the emperor is not particularly anxious, but because he attaches great importance to the imperial concubine, he still remembers it in his heart.
So after returning to Xingxintang, I told the left and right to pay attention to Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion.
So I knew that the imperial concubine was afraid of the wind and cold passing on to him, and also afraid that the wind and cold would pass on to the emperor's heir. Originally, except for the two close servants, no one was allowed to get close.
Who knew that the other children would be fine, they obediently dispersed after being entangled for a while.
Only King Qin could not kneel outside the door, saying that when both he and King Jin were infected with smallpox, it was all thanks to his mother and concubine to take care of him. Now King Jin is still young, but he has grown up. How could he not be with his mother? concubine? So I also want to serve my concubine personally.
The imperial concubine was moved by him, but she made an exception and allowed him to enter.
The Imperial Attendant said: "It is rumored that His Royal Highness King Qin does everything by himself, so that the aunt in front of the imperial concubine has to compete with His Highness to do things."
This is obviously really taking care of the imperial concubine, rather than just being a display.
Chunjia sighed, "This kid is sensible."
Thinking back to the time of smallpox, the harem was closed and isolated from the former court. It can be seen that the imperial concubine really devoted herself to the children. Otherwise, how could the king of Qin be so close to the imperial concubine?
The waiters all agreed with apologetic smiles, but Yan Yin had also followed suit at the time and did not serve in front of the emperor.
Turning his head to a place out of the emperor's hearing, Caihu asked: "How did our family hear that although the imperial concubine wanted to take care of the two highnesses personally, she was blocked by her servants and did not come close?"
"...It was like this at the beginning, how would you know later?" The waiter looked around and whispered, "In short, you all suffered a great crime at that time. Now that His Majesty said this, if the servants said this, the imperial concubine and empress would know it later. How can you rest with your slaves?"
They also knew that the emperor might have misunderstood it. The problem is that if such a thing is mentioned, the emperor may not reduce his trust and pity for the noble concubine, but the noble concubine will definitely remember their attitude.
But why bother?
Yan Yin frowned: "In the future, unless His Majesty tells you not to say such things. It's not that our family can't see you selling to Your Majesty. It's just that although King Qin is the eldest son of the emperor, don't forget that there is His Royal Highness who is the first prince in front of the empress. Now the prince We are growing up day by day, and the former court can't say when it will discuss the establishment of a crown prince again! At that time, your every move at the moment may be reported to you for careful consideration!"
The servant was startled, thanked him for the reminder quickly, and secretly made up his mind that in the future, he would follow the instructions of a wild goose and not ask the emperor himself, so he decided not to say much about the good or bad of a certain prince.
What Yan Yin could perceive, of course the Queen also felt it.
The queen is not Chunjia, so it depends on how the imperial concubine sees it.
She immediately suspected Yun Fenghuang's illness: "When the imperial concubine first entered the palace, she fell into the root cause of the disease, so that she gave birth to the fifteenth prince last year. During this process, she was very careful in recuperating her body, so in the past two years, Except for Mrs. Xie who was hit hard and lay down a few times after the accident, she usually didn’t cough. It’s not the first day I lived in Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion, so how could I get the wind and cold without measure? Don’t take a nap right now. Is it an idea that should not have been made, and deliberately let the King of Qin show pure filial piety?"
Left and right also felt that the imperial concubine was suspicious, but the problem was that it was not easy to tell the emperor, and the emperor might not believe it, and would even tell them to shut up, not to slander his weak imperial concubine.
"Why don't our lords ask your Highnesses to be more filial?" Someone suggested copying homework.
But Gu Zhen felt that it was too contrived to do so. She was straightforward by nature. Even though she had been in the palace for many years, her face had already changed beyond recognition, and she was still unwilling to do some things unless it was absolutely necessary.
But even though the concubine made a name for King Qin like this, she was not happy, and finally decided to ask her family for help.
Her father, Uncle Zhao Wu, is now in Yanzhou. The old man Gu, who is now the master of the Gu family, made some inquiries, but he felt that there was no need to worry: "There is not much news about Qin Wang's pure filial piety in the previous dynasty. It seems that the imperial concubine is not promoting this matter. ...Either she was not ready, or she didn't plan to make a big show, and only taught King Qin to make a good impression in front of His Majesty... If it was the former, she would not be able to cause any disturbances, and there were not many people in the previous court who would be there Help her at this time; if it's the latter, that's a good thing. This shows that the King of Qin must have some flaws, and she is planning ahead, and wants to use her reputation of pure filial piety to cover it up!"
When Gu Zhen received the news, he breathed a sigh of relief, and asked someone to send something to Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion to show his concern.
Unfortunately, the queen's talent arrived, Chen Jing came out to say hello, and was interrupted by the quarrel inside without saying a word.
