green bamboo dream

Shi Shi was going to come, but later because he was not feeling well, he was sent a gift, but his grandmother Yang Shi came, wandering around in the garden before coming to talk to Yu Zhu.

All the wives and grandma hurriedly got up to salute. Seeing that Mrs. Yang seemed to have something to say to Yuzhu, Mrs. Ji said with a wink, "The tea should be ready by now...the new tea sent from Jiangnan this year, It's delicious."

Leading the way with a smile.

After seeing off the crowd, when Yu Zhu turned back, she saw that Mrs. Yang had already hugged Brother Xi, and said cheerfully: "This child is pure and white, and he is really blessed to be born."

Yu Zhuzi hadn't seen Mrs. Yang since she got married, and looking at that kind face, she couldn't help but get tired of being next to her and act like a spoiled child: "It all depends on my birth."

Before Mrs. Yang could speak, she followed up and said, "I was born well because of my mother." She put her head on Yang's arm, and smiled a little silly, "My mother was born by you...so Ah, it's all thanks to you that our brother Xi didn't grow into a clown monkey."

"Little girl has a sweet mouth." Yang Shi was amused by her long string, twisted Yuzhu's cheek, and gently touched her temples. Seeing her eyes were crystal clear, and she smiled a little girlishly. The bright and naive look in her face is not like a mother, so she knows that this granddaughter is doing well, she is happy in her heart, but she still pretends to be angry on her face, and said heavily: "A mother, she is still acting like a baby with her grandmother"

Feeling relieved, she couldn't help but think of her granddaughter in the palace. She was also raised in a pampered family, but she was sent to such an shady place... her status was not enough to bring a dowry maid, and even a pointing person could not help her. No, I don't know if I can be safe...

After thinking about it, he still pulled Yuzhu, and said to her: "Go to the palace to see the queen mother when you have time...at least take care of her."

Yu Zhu sighed inwardly, looking after?How to take care of him, what if he becomes a target of public criticism?

Everything else is false, and I still have to rely on myself. I can only hope that Yueyu will grow up with a better mind sooner, and don't suffer too much... Or, go to the palace to explore?

But when it comes to the palace, she subconsciously rejects it...

I thought I would have to struggle for a few more days, but unexpectedly, a command from the queen directly saved her from the little embarrassment of throwing coins.

— Let her take brother Xi into the palace.

After changing the clothes, and waiting for the wet nurse to feed brother Xi and change the diaper again, Yu Zhu carried brother Xi into the carriage into the palace.

When they got off the car at the gate of the palace, they saw You Nei waiting for them, but led them all the way to the Compassionate Ning Palace.

Looking at Empress Fu with a virtuous smile on her face, Yu Zhu was a little speechless. These days, empresses also lie to others...

"Hurry up and show me the baby." The Queen Mother softened her voice and urged again and again.

Aunt Yu smiled and went forward to take brother Xi from the nurse's arms, and hugged her to the Queen Mother.

"There's no need to be too polite." The empress smiled and avoided Yu Zhu's gift, and asked the servants in the palace to bring her a brocade bamboo to sit on: "Be careful when you're just out of confinement."

The queen mother hugged Brother Xi and teased him, seeing that he was not crying or fussing with black jade-like eyes open, and he was fair and beautiful, so she liked him a little, and casually picked up the queen's words: "That's natural, confinement is for us. Women are the most important thing, especially the conditioning of the body, the effect is excellent."

"What the queen mother said is very true." The queen also leaned over to tease Brother Xi, and said in a nonchalant manner: "I have taken care of my eldest son after giving birth, and now my body is much better than before the birth."

A court lady beside her hurriedly said: "The eldest prince is a little lucky star."

Yu Zhu saw the corners of the Queen Mother's mouth pressed slightly, and then quickly brought up a smile, "It's been a long time since I saw the First Prince, and the Ai family misses it a little."

The queen's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked the maid to bring the eldest prince over.

At the beginning, Yu Zhu felt uncomfortable seeing the queen mother's armored hands, and then she felt even more uncomfortable when she saw her holding brother Xi again. I just nursed before the palace, I'm afraid I'm going to pee."

No matter how much you want to amuse the child, you don't want to pour the boy's urine all over your body. As soon as Yu Zhu said it, the queen mother hurriedly asked Aunt Yu to hug the child away.

The wet nurse Zheng entered the palace for the first time, and she was very apprehensive. She lowered her head and took Brother Xi and hugged her in her arms. She only dared to stare at the golden brick in front of her feet.

Yu Zhu looked at Brother Xi calmly, and saw that he was staring up at Zheng's embroidered neckline slightly with his toothless mouth open, and he was relieved.

Even though it was only for a short while, it seemed to her that several hours had passed—her darling was in the hands of a woman she didn't like, this feeling was not good anyway.

At this time, a court lady came in and said, "The eldest prince is here."

There was a smile on the queen's face, and her eyes followed the little figure gradually approaching the door.

This was the first time Yuzhu saw the eldest prince, a two or three year old child, with red lips and white teeth, and baby fat on his cheeks, but his demeanor was somewhat different from ordinary people.

Yuzhu is willing to explain this kind of bearing as the royal bastard's spirit...

"Grandson pays respects to the emperor's grandmother, and regards the queen mother." He finished the salute neatly, and then said this sentence crisply, which successfully made the smile on the queen's face deepen a little.

"Get up." The queen mother looked like a loving old grandmother, but in Yu Zhu's eyes, it was a failure - the queen mother was only in her 30s, and she had been pampered and well-maintained for a long time, which made her look younger than her actual age .

In addition, today I am wearing a Ruyi satin embroidered silk beanie with clouds and geese, and the red jadeite dripping pearls and phoenix head are shining golden on the head, and a little makeup is applied. Sitting next to the queen, she really looks like sisters, not like mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Although Yu Zhu looked weird, the queen mother didn't seem to feel it at all, she called the eldest prince to her side, and asked him carefully what he did this morning.

Although the eldest prince is young, he can speak clearly, he doesn't need the palace servants to supplement, but he himself has answered in various ways.

The queen was at the side to make fun of him: "Yi'er has a stubborn temper, but luckily he's pretty smart..."

The Queen Mother's reaction was always indifferent, she just pointed at Brother Xi and the First Prince with a smile and said, "A little dd came here today, Yi'er take a look."

"Little dd? Is it the same as the second brother?" The eldest prince immediately thought of the younger brother he had seen from afar, and raised his head to ask.

The queen mother touched his little hand, glanced at the queen, and said with a smile: "Yes, does Yi'er like it?"

The eldest prince ran up to have a look, Zheng did not dare to neglect, but quickly squatted down respectfully, and turned brother Xi's face to the eldest prince.

"It looks different from the second brother." The eldest prince looked carefully, thought for a moment, and said, "But it's also pretty."

It was probably the first time that brother Xi saw a person who was not so huge. He was a little curious, and kept looking at it with his dark eyes, and said "ah... ah".

The queen mother couldn't help laughing, and asked the maid to bring a bowl of crispy cheese to the eldest prince to eat.

Suddenly, the servants shouted: "The emperor is here."

Then, except for the queen mother, everyone stood up quickly, and the queen straightened her clothes a little and went out to welcome her.

Yu Zhu was a little at a loss, and the Queen Mother comforted her when she saw her: "What are you afraid of, it's not like I haven't seen it before..."

While speaking, the young Emperor Yuanxi entered the Nuan Pavilion.

After sitting down without ceremony, the emperor looked at Brother Xi in Zheng's hand with great interest, and finally stretched out his hand and said: "Come, give me a hug."

Then a personal servant came to Zheng's arms to hold the child and handed it to the emperor.

Seeing the queen's face was a bit reluctant, Yuzhu noticed a woman in pink palace dress following behind the emperor. Although she hadn't seen her for a long time, she still recognized Cui Yueyu, the daughter-in-law of the second uncle's family, and now Concubine Kang .

- seems to be very loved

Maybe she still remembered her cousin, Concubine Kang raised her head slightly, winked at Yuzhu, and bared her teeth again.

"This little guy is very energetic." The emperor happily embraced Brother Xi on his shoulders, and held his tender paws that greeted his face.

Brother Xi was uncomfortable being hugged by the emperor, and he became a little anxious, kicking his legs wildly and screaming "ahhh", shaking his head slightly, trying to break free from the shackles of those big hands.

This little bit of strength is completely negligible for an adult man, the emperor easily hugged Brother Xi, and could spare one hand to touch his forehead.

"Wow--"

Brother Xi pursed his mouth in grievance, and cried whenever he wanted to cry, and his sonorous crying echoed in the Nuan Pavilion.

The servant wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped.

"Hey, my temper is not small." The emperor put him on his lap rather helplessly, then patted brother Xi's back lightly, and taught him a serious lesson: "It's easy for a man to cry when he says he wants to cry."

The Empress Dowager couldn't help laughing, she put a handkerchief on the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile: "It will take at least ten years for our brother Xi to grow into a man who can be taught by you."

The eldest prince stood on the side in a regular manner. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, envy and longing inevitably showed in his eyes.

The emperor smiled, touched brother Xi's furry head, and said, "I was not treated so well when I was young."

The Empress Dowager's smile gradually faded away, she was completely unwilling to think about what happened back then.

After hugging for a while, seeing that brother Xi stopped crying, his mouth was smacking as if he was about to nurse, so he let the servant hug him to the wet nurse.

Yuzhu noticed that after seeing each other for a few years, this cousin by blood has changed a lot, the last bit of immaturity has faded from his face, his lines are warm and introverted, his clear eyes have become as calm as a deep pool, as if nothing can easily make him stir up waves .

After glancing at it, she lowered her head and looked at the corner of her skirt. Usually she didn't think of it but she didn't feel much, but at this moment, it was still difficult for her to connect the blood-stained boy on the Ghost Festival night with the lord of the world in front of her...

The emperor sitting on the wide throne that cannot be leaned on all sides, the queen standing behind the queen mother, the eldest prince standing neatly, and Concubine Kang staring at him.

Yu Zhu couldn't help sighing that the royal family is really the weirdest family in the world. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe and reward. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
