The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 136 Unexpected Jealousy

Zhao Yunting walked in, and Tang Wendi didn't go around with him, and boasted with a smile: "Aiqing is a good teacher, Chengyuan is a talented person with superb martial arts skills, and now Cheng'an has grown up, with outstanding literary talents, mature and stable. A few days ago, I was here Looking at the juniors in the family in the imperial garden, Cheng An is the most outstanding, and now he is going to enter the palace as a companion to the Fifth Prince, can Ai Qing be willing?"

Zhao Yunting was slightly taken aback, and then his face became distressed.

Emperor Tang Wen saw the change in his expression, put down the memorial in his hand, and asked curiously: "Why, you don't want to?" Since you don't want to, why did you send your son in?
Zhao Yunting let out a long sigh, lowered his head and said: "It's my honor that the emperor loves the dog, but the emperor knows about the situation in the minister's house. Cheng Yuan has always denied his third brother. Now that Cheng An is young, Cheng Yuan doesn't bother to fight with a child." , when Cheng An grows up, the two brothers will definitely have a fight. They are both the flesh and blood of the minister, and the minister can't just sit idly by. He owed a lot to Cheng Yuan's mother and son, so he planned to let Cheng An read and write. His elder brother doesn't want him to be famous. This time the emperor chose a companion for the fifth prince, and the minister wanted to sue Cheng An for his illness, but the old mother insisted on letting Cheng An try..."

Emperor Wen of Tang became interested, "Doesn't the old lady like Chengyuan?" Which of the two grandsons is better, the old lady is not so confused, right?
Zhao Yunting looked up at Emperor Tang Wen, with an embarrassing look for his family, "To tell you the truth, after Chengyuan returned to Beijing, he was valued by the emperor, and my mother still likes him very much, but Chengyuan's wife Lin's background is not obvious, and my mother has always He was dissatisfied with this, and later Lin gave birth to a daughter, and his mother hated her even more. But Chengyuan, who loved his wife and daughters highly, had a quarrel with his mother. I'm angry, so I can only hope that Cheng An will show her off. Your Majesty, it's really difficult for me to be caught in the middle, so I ask you to choose someone else to accompany the fifth prince, and help me once!"

Emperor Tang Wen stared at Zhao Yunting, Zhao Yunting bowed his head in shame.

Thinking of the troubles in the Zhao family, Tang Wendi sympathized with Zhao Yunting, a big man who was burdened by his mother and wife, but also gloated a little, and said with a smile: "It is said that it is difficult for an upright official to break up housework. Today I finally understand the deep meaning. Well, I will Help you once, so that you don't have to worry about trivial matters at home and not care about government affairs all day long."

"I dare not." Zhao Yunting hastily expressed his loyalty.

Emperor Tang Wen asked Qin Shi again, "I remember, Qin Shi made a mistake last year and you sent him to Zhuangzi. What happened at that time?"

Referring to the past, Zhao Yunting couldn't hide his anger: "At that time, the Lin family was just born and not long after pregnancy, and the Qin family wanted to poison the granddaughter of the minister. I really can't tolerate her, so please forgive me." The former minister had already brought her back, but he was afraid that she would continue to commit crimes. The minister detained her in the mansion, and said that she was devoted to the Buddha, cultivating her morality and avoiding seeing guests. Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with this minister? side……"

Emperor Tang Wen waved his hand, "Aiqing is too worried. General Zhenbei is not good at touching him, but you won't swallow your anger because he is tired. Qin's wife's morality is at a disadvantage. You should control it no matter what. By the way, you How old is the granddaughter? I remember she was born in October, and she has some relationship with the eldest grandson of the emperor?"

Zhao Yunting's eyes softened, "It was born at the end of October last year. Princess Jing sent a lantern. The little girl likes it very much. Now it is hanging on the beam of the roof. I have to look at it for a while every day."

Tang Wendi was a few years older than Zhao Yunting, but it was the first time he was a grandfather. When he mentioned grandchildren, he couldn't help being excited. When he told Zhao Yunting about the emperor's eldest grandson, one praised the emperor's eldest grandson for being able to stand up by himself while supporting the bed rail, and the other praised his granddaughter Turning over and grabbing things, they chatted for a quarter of an hour unconsciously, and it was Wei Yuan who reminded the emperor to go elsewhere before stopping the conversation.

Emperor Tang Wen was in a good mood, and rewarded Cancan with a few things for Zhao Yunting to take back.

Zhao Yunting knelt down to thank his granddaughter and walked away briskly.

Emperor Tang Wen watched Zhao Yunting's back, carefully recalled the conversation just now, and picked Zhao Yunting out.

King Rui wanted to use Zhao Han to win over General Zhenbei and form a party for personal gain. Zhao Han seemed to be willing to stand on King Rui's side. The remaining party of the former prince can no longer be used.Since Zhao Yunting, Zhao Shen and his son wanted revenge, he was happy to see it succeed.

In the evening, Emperor Wen of Tang went to Zhaoyang Palace again.

After lying down, he hugged his favorite concubine, explained the reason why the fifth prince chose Zhao Han, and said angrily: "I've been thinking about playing all day long, last time the companion was caught in the cold because he tricked him into falling into the water, Zhao Han Han doesn't look very tough, choosing him will only hurt him, let's choose the third son of the Liu family, he is physically strong."

Concubine Xian huddled in the man's shoulder, blinked her eyes, and blamed herself in a low voice: "The emperor is right, it's all because I didn't teach Wei'er well, please punish him."

Emperor Tang Wen smiled and comforted him, but there was no smile in his eyes as he looked at the bed curtain.

Didn't teach the Fifth Prince well?Being able to teach the fifth prince to choose Zhao Han with such seamless reasons, he has done a good job as a concubine.

He had always known that the woman in his arms was cunning and smart, but he didn't expect that she would use this smartness for things other than fighting for favor.In the harem, he can indulge her arrogance, but he will not allow her to intervene in the affairs of the previous dynasty, especially the throne.Right now he has no evidence to prove that King Rui colluded with General Zhenbei, if he finds out something in the future...

He can give them mother and child love, and naturally he can take it back.

Zhao Han was disappointed for a while when he was not selected as a companion.

The mood of Mrs. Tai cannot be described by the word loss. Her nephew's nephew was gluttonous and had a bad stomach and failed to complete the exam, so she went back to Liaodong in despair. , It was hard to swallow, so I could only tell Zeng Xuerou: "Now that the sky is warm, you often go to the garden for a stroll. Your cousin is angry with me, and treats you differently. You have to seize the opportunity."

There is no way out, she can only hope that her niece and granddaughter can steal the heart of her eldest grandson, and let her turn it around. When the eldest grandson understands that everything she does is for the Zhao family, the grandparent and grandson may not be able to get back together.

Zeng Xuerou responded well in person, but Madam Fengyang did not know about it behind her back.

Compared with the oppressive atmosphere in Rongshou Hall, Wangzhuxuan is much more cheerful.

The emperor rewarded Cancan with several exquisite and small playthings. The little girl was just when she was restless, and she would change to another one to play with after a while. Anyway, they were all placed on the kang, and she stretched out her hand towards the one she liked, chatting babbling.If Ah Ju deliberately ignored her, the little guy would lose his temper and yell loudly, he was like a little ancestor.

The daughter's eyebrows and eyes gradually opened, she was lively and cute, and the results of Lin Xian's palace examination were also released.No. 7 in Erjia, entered the Imperial Academy as a scholar, and after three years of assessment, he either stayed in the Imperial Academy, or was assigned to work under the Six Ministries, and those with poor grades were sent to other prefectures and counties to serve as officials.

After returning from the dinner at the Lin family, Zhao Chen told his wife while teasing his daughter to turn over: "I talked to my father-in-law, who said that he doesn't want to be released or go to the sixth department, so he wants to stay in the Hanlin Academy to edit or teach and have a leisurely time." An errand. This is also good, without the intrigue in the officialdom, the mother-in-law can feel at ease at home."

Ah Ju was very emotional.Both her grandfather and grandmother died because they supported her father to study, and her father had resistance to the imperial examinations. This time, she took part in the rural examination Chunwei to gain some confidence for her as an official, lest others would secretly laugh at her background as a village girl.

After giving birth to my daughter, I realized the kindness of my parents more and more.

Looking at the daughter who just turned over to her father over there, Ah Ju smiled, grabbed the rattle beside her and shook it.When Cancan heard the sound, she immediately turned her head to look back, and Aju clapped her hands with a rattle in one hand and called to her: "Cancan, come to mother, mother will give you something good to play with."

Cancan giggled, patted Kang with her little hand and thought about it.

Zhao Chen put his big hands under his daughter's armpits, supported her and taught her to walk step by step to the mother's side.Cancan has strength in her legs, but she took two steps too slowly, she refused to take any steps, and stretched out her hand to the mother on the opposite side.Ah Ju ignored her, and Cancan turned to look at her father, her small mouth was babbling like a discussion, her big eyes were black and moist.Zhao Chen couldn't bear to refuse, he held his daughter up and stood up, intentionally letting the top of her head lightly touch the fox lantern on top of her head, Cancan was so happy, she stretched out her hands to hug the lantern, giggled when she hugged it, opened her mouth to gnaw, and was caught Zhao Chen took it away in time and handed it to her mother.

Ah Ju took her daughter with a smile, and kissed again and again, "Cancan grow up quickly, please listen to my mother."

Cancan ignored her mother and looked down for the swaying rattle.

Ah Ju let her play on her stomach.

Zhao Chen took advantage of the situation and leaned on her body, and said while kissing her: "I went to my father-in-law's house for a banquet today, and next time Muxiu will accompany you to the Zhuangzi to play for a long time, go outing and fly kites, okay?" After speaking, he turned over and changed into The wife is on top, so that she won't think he's heavy again after a while.

Ah Ju's face was a little hot, she looked at the door, heard no footsteps outside, and then asked him in a low voice: "Have you ever flown a kite? When we were young, we made kites and flew them by ourselves."

Zhao Chen looked at her without speaking.

Ah Ju's heart ached, he had such a hard time as a child, he must have never had a good time.Not daring to look at him, she pressed her face against his chest and said, "I can also make kites. If you want to learn, I will teach you. When you learn it, you will make it for her when Cancan wants to play. Let's How about not going out to buy it?"

"Okay, I'll learn from you." Zhao Chen raised her face, his eyes were gentle, "Do you know what I was thinking just now?"

Ah Ju shook her head, ready to listen to his sad things.

Zhao Chen smiled, looked up at the fox lantern, and said in a nostalgic tone: "I was thinking, after I moved to Tongwan, I walked along that road a few times and saw some country children flying kites from a distance. Now think about it , maybe I saw you at that time, don't you think?"

He looked at her expectantly.

Ah Ju felt guilty.

When she was a child, she always played with Meng Zhongjing. Even when she was older, Meng Zhongjing would always stand aside when she was flying kites with her younger siblings.Guilty, and a bit dreamy, it's not that I still like Meng Zhongjing, it's just that things are different...

Her eyes dodged, Zhao Chen frowned, after a little thought, he guessed what his wife was thinking, and unspeakable jealousy immediately overflowed his heart.

"You are not allowed to think about him again." Zhao Chen pressed her under him again, and pressed her lips eagerly.

If he had known today, he should have gone to have a look at that time, and dragged the little girl named Ah Ju to his side, not allowing her to play with others.
