When we returned to the palace, it was already time for lighting the lanterns.
As soon as Shen Yuyao got off the carriage, her way was blocked by a tall figure.
Look up.
Prince Ning Xia Yu!
"Your Highness." Shen Yuyao was about to bow, but suddenly remembered that she was still wearing men's clothes, so she had to change her posture and salute with her fists clasped.
Xia Yu stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes full of amusement.
"Princess, did you enjoy yourself today?"
"Your Highness, I went out to visit my brother. I wonder if Your Highness..."
[Why do I feel a little guilty looking at my scumbag father now? ]
[He had never shown any interest in his mother's whereabouts before, but today he took the initiative to inquire...]
[Could it be that he knew his mother was going to poison him?]
Oh no, oh no...
"The Crown Princess summoned you to the palace tomorrow and specifically asked you to bring the little princess with you." Xia Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, "You are wearing men's clothes..."
Paused.
“It’s pretty nice!”
【Ah! What did I hear? 】
【Say such words with such a face?】
[Is it an alluring charm? Or a teasing temptation?]
When Shen Yuyao heard what Xiao Xianbao said, her face turned red all the way to her ears.
He bowed hastily and ran away.
A voice came from behind:
"interesting..."
【Your whole family is interesting! 】
......
East Palace, Jingtai Hall.
"My concubine greets the Crown Princess. May Her Majesty be blessed with good health!" It was not the first time Shen Yuyao had seen the Crown Princess, but today she looked particularly haggard.
Recalling that on the day of the full moon, Xiao Xianbao had said that the Crown Princess would follow the Crown Prince if he died young, Shen Yuyao inexplicably felt a little pity for the Crown Princess.
Or perhaps because they are both royal sons and daughters-in-law, they can more or less empathize with each other's sorrows.
Shen Yuyao's wish for good health and happiness at this moment was truly a heartfelt blessing.
"Princess, please get up quickly." The Crown Princess smiled slightly. "I asked you to come to the East Palace today because the Crown Prince wants to play with the little princess."
I see!
[The Crown Prince, what a dull boy!]
[Playing with him would make me so bored that I doubt my immortal life...]
[However, I can't help but feel favored by the Emperor.]
[If I don't accompany him, what if they destroy Prince Ning's mansion and leave the bodies exposed in a mass grave?]
[Accompany! Accompany! Accompany! Not only accompany, but also accompany well!]
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty had many children, but he only favored the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace!
The emperor once disregarded the etiquette and named the crown prince's only legitimate son as the crown prince while the crown prince was still alive!
This is equivalent to directly announcing to the world that the future of the Great Xia Empire can only belong to the prince's lineage!
The first thing the emperor did after ascending the throne was to enfeoff his sons as princes.
He also ordered that after each prince got married and had his first son, he would lead troops to garrison the frontier.
The emperor even said to the prince: "I entrust the responsibility of resisting the barbarians to your brothers. They can keep the borders in order and leave you peace!"
It can be seen that biased parents exist not only among ordinary people, but also in the royal family!
As for Prince Ning, after escorting the Duke and his family back to their hometown, he should move his entire family to his fiefdom.
[Wow! This East Palace is so elegant, without any ostentation.]
[It seems that this Crown Prince and Crown Princess are truly kind and virtuous people.]
[Here he comes! Little Munduner is here again.]
When Shen Yuyao looked up, she saw the Crown Prince Xia Chongwen, who was as handsome as jade but had a mature look in his eyes!
Just as he was about to pay his respects, the crown prince waved his hand and said, "Aunt, I'm here to see Princess Xiaoxian."
Shen Yuyao pursed her lips and smiled, then followed the Crown Princess out of the palace and admired the flowers in the courtyard.
"Xiaoxian, you've gained some weight, you look so beautiful!" The Crown Prince sat down on the couch.
Xia Xiaoxian raised her lotus-root-like arm, as if to say hello to the Crown Prince, then put her chubby little hand into her mouth and started slurping...
[Can you please stop praising someone by saying they are fat every time?]
[Is it not possible to be as blessed as the East Sea? ]
[It's fine if I live as long as Nanshan Mountain, but Nanshan Mountain can't live as long as this immortal! ]
"Xiaoxian, you know what? I don't like this East Palace at all." Xia Chongwen continued to say to Xia Xiaoxian in the cradle:
"Every day at the hour of Yin, the eunuchs in the palace would wake me up and send me to the study to review what I had learned the day before."
[Is being the crown prince really that pitiful? No way.]
"When it's Mao time, I'll meet the teachers and start my morning reading."
"At 7:00 PM, Grandpa Huang or Dad will come here to check on my homework."
"At 9:00 PM, after they leave, I'll start studying again."
"day to day."
[Tsk... Even if you give me a hundred thrones, I wouldn't want to be the crown prince.]
"Today, I have been begging for a long time before I can see you."
"I know you don't understand what I'm saying, but for some reason I just want to talk to you."
[This little Mundun is so pitiful. I feel so sorry for him for some reason!]
"Also, let me tell you a secret. My father is not what people call a weak prince."
"Daddy is actually a man of both civil and military talents, and a man of great kindness and compassion!"
"My grandfather was a military commander and served as the Crown Prince's tutor. How could he not know martial arts? This immortal knows all of this."
[Although the Crown Prince has been keeping a low profile, there are too many treacherous people, constantly plotting against him! What a pity, what a pity...]
[If this prince could change his fate, wouldn't my mother and I be much safer?]
"Alright, Xiaoxian, I promised my mother that I could only play with you for one stick of incense. Now the time is up, I should go back to the study."
When Xia Chongwen and Xia Xiaoxian said goodbye, the Crown Princess and Shen Yuyao had just stepped into the palace and saw this scene.
The Crown Prince was talking seriously to the baby in the cradle, and the baby was dancing and babbling in response.
