Queen is fearless

Chapter 436 The Prince
The originally grand and lively Catch the Week Banquet was abruptly turned into a 'gift exchange' by the brothers and sisters.

Don't look at Yuan Cheng learning to walk, he was a little later than Yuan Zhen, but now he walks very smoothly, even, the steps he walks out feel a little more than Yuan Zhen.

The seal he was holding in his arms was not big. After holding the seal in his arms, he stopped looking at other things and only focused on walking towards Gu Jinzhi.

On the other hand, Yuan Zhen, sitting on the red carpet, gnawed on snacks, and from time to time, pulled all the jade things around her to her side.

If the quality of the jade is good, she will keep it, if it is not good, she will throw it aside.

People in the hall, some pay attention to Yuan Cheng, some pay attention to Yuan Zhen, they are surprised that she can distinguish good jade from bad at such a young age.

Some people even leaned closer and handed the jade pendant they were wearing to Yuan Zhen to let her distinguish between good and bad.

That is to say, today is the birthday party of the two children, so there is no need to be so serious, otherwise the emperor would stand behind Yuan Zhen, how could anyone dare to take the initiative to come over?
Originally thought that the jade pendant they handed over would be taken by Yuan Zhen, after all, the jade pendant that could be tied by them must be extremely high-quality.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Zhen only took one look, then turned her head away, as if she was not interested in the jade pendant in their hands.

The people holding the jade pendant looked at me and I looked at you, thinking that Yuan Zhen was taught to do this, but they didn't expect that when they were about to leave, Yuan Zhen suddenly looked at them again.

Immediately, several people stopped, seeing that Yuan Zhen had no snacks in his hands, they were a little surprised.

It turned out that I was still eating snacks just now, so it was inconvenient to pick up things.

Zhou Jing lowered her head and looked at Yuan Zhen who was sitting on the ground, as well as several royal family members and ministers of the imperial court who had gathered in front of her.

According to his understanding of Yuan Zhen, it was definitely not because he had some snacks in his hand that he refused to accept the jade pendant.

Sure enough, after Yuan Zhen looked at the jade pendant in their hands, she lowered her head and took out a piece of jade pendant on her body for a long time. She didn't know where it came from, and suddenly pulled out a piece of jade pendant.

It's nothing else, it's the jade pendant she got from Zhou Jing before, her most precious thing.

Holding the tassel of the jade pendant, Yuan Zhen gritted her teeth and raised her arms, looking at her appearance, she seemed a little complacent...

Immediately, Zhou Jing laughed, and dared to regard these people who gave jade pendants as comparisons.

The people in front of Yuan Zhen blinked at the same time, and looked at the jade pendant in Yuan Zhen's hand.

Of course they can recognize that this is the emperor's stuff, no matter how good theirs is, it is incomparable to the emperor's.

Thinking of Yuan Zhen's actions just now, and thinking of their own thoughts, each of them felt dumbfounded.

Obviously the little princess is only one year old, but she is so thoughtful and knows how to compare, really... It really makes people don't know what to say.

Seeing those people retreat, Zhou Jing picked up Yuan Zhen, followed Gu Jinzhi's usual way, and kissed her on the face.

Immediately, Yuan Zhen's face became bitter, Zhou Jing's face had a little stubble, which was a bit prickly, she rubbed her face a few times with her small hands, and looked towards her own.

Yuan Cheng walked to Gu Jinzhi's side. In order to make it easier for Yuan Cheng to look at her, Gu Jinzhi simply sat down, not caring what others thought.

"Mother...Mother..." Seeing that Mother sat down, Yuan Cheng handed the seal in his arms to Gu Jinzhi, and called Mother vaguely.

Gu Jinzhi's face showed surprise, not because Yuan Cheng handed over the seal he had captured to himself, but because of the ambiguous "mother" in his mouth.

You know, it's been a long time since Yuan Zhen's "de's". Although she is "de's" to everyone, it's the first time she speaks and speaks.

Yuan Cheng is an elder brother, but he has never spoken, no matter what you teach him, he will not speak.

Today is the day when Yuan Cheng and Yuan Zhen turned one year old. Gu Jinzhi heard Yuan Cheng's mother, which made her feel a little excited.

Seeing Zhou Jing hugging Yuan Zhen, Gu Jinzhi took Yuan Chengshou in his arms and hugged her too.

The seal he handed over was held by Gu Jinzhi in his hand, and he glanced at it, it was the emperor's private seal.

Zhou Jing has a lot of seals, except for the jade seal that is needed for specific occasions, most of the time, the seals used are private.

When Gu Shenzhi went to the border before, Zhou Jing gave him a private seal, asking him to dispatch troops at critical moments.

Holding Yuan Cheng in his arms, Gu Jinzhi returned to Zhou Jing's side, and showed the seal that Yuan Cheng had grabbed to the emperor.

The smile on Zhou Jing's face suddenly deepened, although Yuan Cheng only caught one, but the meaning was different.

Coincidentally, on this occasion, he still has something to say.

Give an order to have someone carefully put away the ones caught by Yuan Zhen, and put away the rest.

Together with Gu Jinzhi, Zhou Jing held the two children and sat on the main seat in the main hall of Yanqing Palace.

The empress dowager had already sat down, she looked into the empress's arms, looked at the two children, she was very curious.

Now that it's cold, she is worried that the children will be frozen, so she rarely lets Gu Jinzhi take the children to see her.

When the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, the children can often go to Shoukang Palace to accompany her grandmother.

All the people in the hall sat down separately. The first-year feast was divided into two parts, one was to catch the week, and the other was to eat. The catch-week was over, and after the meal, the first-year feast was completely over.

The palace people brought up the food and placed it on the table in front of everyone. The sound of singing and dancing in the hall sounded, and Zhou Jing and Gu Jinzhi handed over the siblings to the palace people.

According to the instructions, the palace servants carried the two brothers and sisters to the Queen Mother's side. With the Queen Mother watching over them, the Empress can rest assured.

At the end of the song, Zhou Jing picked up his wine glass and took a sip, "I have something to say."

Immediately, the hall fell silent, and everyone's gazes focused on Zhou Jing.

"Today is my son and daughter's first birthday. I have something to announce, Yuan Bao."

After giving an order, Yuan Bao stepped forward, unfolded the imperial decree in his hand, and read it aloud.

"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor's edict said that since ancient times, the emperors have inherited the heavens and set up their poles, and they must establish a prince, so that the Mianzong Society will have no borders... The prince Yuan Cheng, who is handsome every day, has a beautiful talent... he will be the crown prince... Announce it to the world, and history will know it."

As soon as the imperial decree came out, there was a lot of discussion in the hall. Probably no one expected that the direct prince was established as the crown prince just after one year old.

However, before the officials could speak, Yuan Bao's voice sounded again. There were two imperial edicts in total, one was to make the first-born prince the crown prince, and the other was to make the first-year-old princess the eldest princess.

Not only everyone in the hall, but even Gu Jinzhi showed surprise. She knew that Yuan Cheng would become the crown prince sooner or later, but she never expected that it would be so early.

Not only Yuan Cheng, Yuan Zhen's canonization also came unexpectedly. She looked at Zhou Jing, thinking secretly in her heart, what was he thinking at this time...

　That imperial edict was from Du Niang, it is not accurate enough, the text itself is empty, it does not exist in history, please detour the textual research party.
