Chapter 168

"Father, the fourth brother is now in harmony with the Crown Princess. Presumably, he brought someone there because he learned that the Crown Princess misses her parents." Xiao Changqi said deliberately.

His voice paused, and then he added, "Fourth Brother's leg injury, Father, you also know that Fourth Brother is very unhappy about it, and if he wants to go out for a walk, he can feel better in his heart."

The emperor stopped talking, he thought of the prince's injury, and the imperial doctor said that he could hardly stand up.

Although he also recruited many folk doctors to come over, the imperial physicians in the palace couldn't do anything, so what use were these folk doctors to do.

The emperor sighed heavily, "Forget it, if he doesn't come back for a while, he won't come back."

It's fine if the prince doesn't return to Lanjing for the time being. When he weakens the power at the prince's hand, the prince is too far away to stop him, and the officials probably won't object so much.

He still appreciates this son-in-law, whether it's his legitimate status, or his talent and courage.

It's just that the fate of this son-in-law is not good after all.

For some reason, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief.

"You have been away for a long time, and you should also meet your mother and concubine."

When Xiao Changqi heard this, he knew that he could go out, so he hurriedly saluted and said goodbye.

After he went out for a while, the emperor changed into light clothes and went to Yongning Palace.

The queen didn't want to see the emperor at all, and when she saw him coming, she mentioned Wanmeiren, "Wanmeiren gave birth to an emperor's heir, according to the rules, she should be promoted."

"Wanmei is a treasure in His Majesty's heart. Please make your own decision on this matter."

"The position and title should be determined as soon as possible, so as not to damage the reputation of the Eighth Prince."

After all, in this harem, there is no emperor's heir whose biological mother is just a beauty.

Even if the First Prince made a mistake, Concubine Hui is still Concubine Hui.

If the courtiers hear these words from the queen, they will definitely praise the queen for her generosity, she is worthy of being the mother of the country.

But the emperor was not happy when he heard it.

He is no longer what he used to be, thinking that the queen is a taste, and deliberately saying these words to provoke him.

He understood that the queen really didn't care, and didn't like...

The emperor lowered his head and saw the queen embroidering a handkerchief, which was very simple.

He had received a few handkerchiefs from the empress's palace, but at first glance they were the workmanship of the embroiderer in the palace.

He closed his eyes and sat down not far away.

"The prince has gone to Yun Country."

The queen was not surprised at all, but the emperor came here to talk about it, which annoyed her.

She nodded, indicating that she understood.

The emperor looked at her for a long time, and asked unwillingly, "The words you said before, I know they were angry words."

"What words?" The queen felt strange.

The emperor lowered his eyes, "You married me back then, because..."

The queen remembered, she raised her eyebrows, and looked at the man with a half-smile, "Your Majesty thinks this is an angry word? But it's my sincere words."

She didn't understand, after so many years, and at this age, people with grandchildren suddenly began to miss the true love.

When you should be thinking about the truth, you don’t think about it. When you shouldn’t be thinking about it, you always think about something.

The queen laughed lightly, with sarcasm in it.

It is to ridicule this man, but also to ridicule herself.

The emperor's face was livid, and he wanted to leave with a flick of his sleeves, but in the end, his eyes were heavy.

"I'm here to eat."

When she didn't speak directly before, the queen barely maintained the harmony on the surface, but now she has spoken several times, she is too lazy to do these superficial efforts.

So he smiled directly, "Please go to the next place, Your Majesty."

"Ming Wei!"

There was a threat in the voice, but the queen didn't care.

What else could she be threatened with?

The prince... The prince is no longer something this man can handle. As for her...she doesn't care.

So she raised her eyes, her eyes were indifferent.

For some reason, the emperor gradually felt remorse in his heart, but for a moment he couldn't tell whether the remorse was for something or everything.

He saw the calmness and indifference in the woman's eyes, and his heart was sour that he couldn't stay any longer.

So he found an excuse to make himself look less embarrassed, "Wanmei is not feeling well, I'm going to see her."

"And her child, I haven't named it yet."

Shouan was counting at the door, and after a while the emperor came out with a gloomy face.

Although expected, but still surprised.

"His Majesty?"

"Go to Cuiwei Palace.

Shou'an ordered the two young eunuchs to report first, and then followed the emperor.

Wanmei is looking at the child in Su Ran's arms.

This child has been very noisy since he was born, and he will behave a little better only when he gets close to Su Ran.

She was about to talk to Su Ran when she heard someone from the palace outside saying that His Majesty is coming.

Wanmei's face turned pale, and she quickly asked Su Ran to bring the child over, and then let Su Ran go down.

Just in time, when the emperor came in, he saw Su Ran coming out.

He glanced at him unconsciously, and said casually, "The people in your palace, even an eunuch, have a good appearance."

Wanmei was so frightened that her heart didn't dare to jump, she forced a smile, "Your Majesty is not allowed to praise others for their good looks."

The emperor didn't think about anything else, he just said, "You are becoming more and more jealous."

Wanmei came over to let the emperor look at the child, and said coquettishly, "I just don't want to hear His Majesty praise others."

The emperor lowered his head, watched it for a while, and liked it a little bit.

It's just that I don't like it much.

Not only because of the child's biological mother, but also because of the child's appearance.

The prince is more like a queen, and you can find something like him if you look closely.

So every time he looked at the prince, he was also happy in his heart.

It's just that this joy is not worth his defense against the prince after all.

As for Wanmeiren's child...

Wanmei looks a bit like the queen when she was young, but the child can't find anything like her, nor like him.

"Hold it over." The emperor said to the two nuns.

After hearing this, Mammy came over immediately and took the child away.

"Come here today because of the child's name."

"It's been a few days since he was born, it's not good that he has no name."

Wanmei had thought about it a long time ago, and she said happily, "Actually, before giving birth, the concubine already thought of the name."

"If it's a princess, call her Xiao Lan, and if it's a prince, call him Xiao Jin."

She dipped some tea and wrote on the table for the emperor to read.

Both names are interesting, in many ways.

One is that whether it is a princess or a prince, it is different from other people's. This generation of princesses grows up, and princes grow up.

Wanmei's name doesn't have these two characters, so the emperor just pretends that she doesn't understand.

But these two words are also very interesting.

Bei Xiao's imperial city is Lanjing, so the word Lan also has some meaning.

It's not that ordinary people can't use this word, it's just that the higher the status, the more they avoid it.

The name of the princess is fine, but for a princess, no matter how petted she is, she will only give more in the dowry.

Besides, it is not a princess who is beautiful in life.
