In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the palace banquet.

Shu Yuwan did not participate because she was from Heli.

Mr. and Mrs. Shu Shilang and Mr. and Mrs. Shu Yuyang were all present in formal attire.

Shu Yuwan took Yue'er back to Shu Mansion to celebrate the New Year with Shu Yucheng's family of three.

Shu Yucheng had already had a break from college a year ago and returned home.

"Sister, Yue'er, come quickly." Mrs. Zhou greeted Shu Yuwan warmly as soon as she saw her.

Yue'er is already seven or eight months old. Brother Qing and Sister Yuan met and kept surrounding Yue'er: "Sister Yue'er, call me sister, call me sister."

"Sister Yue'er, call me brother, call me brother..."

The two little ones were arguing lively.

Yue'er stretched out her little hand to pull Sister Yuan's hair, and kept saying "Wolf, wolf, wolf..."

When Zhou saw it, she couldn't help laughing.

"It's mother..."

"Mother, mother, mother."

Zhou corrected Yue'er over and over again.

Yue'er looked at Zhou with an innocent face, as if she wanted to hear what she had to say.

Shu Yuwan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, don't bother yourself. I correct you every day at home and you still cry wolf."

"Children are just like this. Yue'er can talk at such an old age. He is already very smart. Just correct him more and he will be fine."

Sister Yuan also just spoke eloquently.

He kept babbling at Yue'er's little mouth.

"Look at how much Sister Yuan likes her younger sister. The second brother and second sister-in-law will give Sister Yuan a younger brother and sister soon." Shu Yuwan joked.

Shu Yucheng looked at Mr. Zhou and smiled.

Mrs. Zhou patted Shu Yuwan's arm and said, "Hey little sister, you're starting to make fun of your sister-in-law."

There are only a few juniors and three children in the family, and the year has been quite lively.

After more than an hour, Shu Shilang and his wife, Shu Yuyang and his wife, also came back.

After warming up the food and wine, several people ate some again to fill their stomachs.

"Why did you come back earlier this year?" Shu Yucheng asked.

"The emperor and the prince seemed to have some trouble. The prince left early, the emperor also left shortly after, and the palace banquet ended early."

Shu Yuyang replied.

"Isn't the emperor's favorite prince the most beloved?"

Shu Yuyang shook his head and expressed ignorance.

Thinking of what my sister had said, I became even more worried.

It seems that I have to find an opportunity to remind the prince.

"When an ordinary father and son don't have a little conflict, the emperor and his son are also father and son. How normal."

"The emperor has a deep love for Empress Yuan, and the prince was brought up by the emperor himself. Their love is extraordinary, so don't worry too much."

Mrs. Shu wanted to be happy.

Shu Yuwan searched her mind for a long time, but couldn't find any relevant memories.

In the past, she only cared about her one-third of an acre of land. She really paid little attention to these court affairs. Now she can't find any useful information.

In the palace.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne with a dark face,

The prince stood below with an indifferent expression, completely unmoved.

"What exactly are you looking for?"

"Even if you are not a prince, a man from an ordinary family would get married and have children at this age, let alone you are a prince!!"

"You must give birth to the heir of this great Jing Dynasty!"

"Father, you don't have to worry about the successor. I have so many younger brothers, and I can give the throne to a capable younger brother in the future."

"you!"

"You think I've lived too long and you want to make me angry to death, right?"

"Father, don't be angry."

"When I meet the right person, I will marry the crown princess."

"No, you have to give me a deadline."

The prince lowered his head and thought carefully: "Two years!"

"Too long!"

"Then there's no deadline."

The prince spread his hands, intending to play rogue to the end.

The emperor took a few deep breaths to suppress the anger in his heart.

"Two years is too long, it should be shorter."

"Then a year and a half!"

The prince decided to accommodate his father.

"Okay, remember what you said, within one and a half years, you must marry the crown princess!"

"Remember, father."

The prince said goodbye to the emperor and returned to the East Palace.

"Look, look, the courtiers all praise the prince for his virtuousness, but you and I are like this!" The emperor pointed at the back of the prince who had gone out and complained to Eunuch Hong.

Eunuch Hong smiled and said: "The prince really thinks of you as his father, so he dares to talk to you like this. How can other princes dare to talk to you like this when they think of you as the emperor."

The emperor also smiled: "I personally raised Jin'er, so it's naturally different."

"That's all. Waiting for another year or two won't affect the birth of children. My body can still last for a few more years, so let him do it."

In a blink of an eye, the new year is over and it’s time to go to court again.

Shu Yuyang also came to the East Palace today.

The fifth prince also came.

The fifth prince is still following behind the prince. The elder brother of the prince is older, and the younger brother of the prince is younger.

"Brother Prince, why were you angry with your father a few days ago?" the fifth prince asked innocently.

After hearing this, Shu Yuyang also looked at the prince.

"My father wants me to marry the crown princess, but I don't want to marry her for the time being."

The fifth prince was puzzled: "Why doesn't the prince brother want to marry the princess? I saw that when the second brother and the third brother were chatting, they seemed to be happy to marry the princess? The Concubine Xian also said that the prince brother is old enough to marry a wife?"

With Shu Yuwan's words, Shu Yuyang has been secretly observing every word and deed of the fifth prince.

Although I have never seen anything suspicious, the seeds of suspicion are sown, and I always pay more attention to the fifth prince.

The prince patted the fifth prince on the head: "No reason, I just don't want to marry."

"oh."

The fifth prince obediently stopped asking further questions.

"Brother Prince, my martial arts master criticized my shooting skills yesterday. Brother Prince, your shooting skills are so powerful, can you teach me?"

The prince hesitated for a moment, then nodded and replied: "Okay."

"But if you learn from me, you will have to endure hardships! If you are not serious, I will really beat you up!"

The fifth prince shrank his neck.

Still replied: "Okay, Brother Prince will teach me, and I will definitely study hard!"

After the fifth prince left, Shu Yuyang asked: "Your Highness, you have so many things to do, why did you agree to teach the fifth prince archery?"

The prince smiled faintly: "First of all, my father is in the prime of life, so he doesn't need to be busy alone. Secondly, if my fifth brother wants to learn, I can take care of him."

Shu Yuyang was very surprised when he heard this.

The prince was worried that his excessive prestige would make the emperor jealous.

But he was too reassured about the fifth prince. The East Palace allowed the fifth prince to come and go, and now he even had to teach him the art of archery.

"Your Highness even thought of..."

"Don't be too confidant to the fifth prince. Although the fifth prince is the youngest among the princes now, he is already eleven years old, and he already knows a lot."

After hearing this, the prince looked at Shu Yuyang in slight surprise: "Didn't you feel pity for Qi'er before?"

Because Concubine Xian got a fifth prince, her favor was not as good as before, and she was not very interested in the fifth prince at first. Therefore, the fifth prince did not have a good life when he was a child.

"It used to be the past, but now that the fifth prince is older, as long as he is a prince, there is no guarantee that he will not have such thoughts."

The prince smiled slightly: "Yu Yang, this doesn't look like you? What happened? That made you suddenly have such worries?"

"My roommate reminded me."

"The sister who is in harmony with the third son of the Anding Marquis Mansion?"
