"The account books at the emperor's disposal were all organized by Zhezhi." When the queen thought of Zhezhi, she admired Su Zhiruan very much. As a woman, she gave birth to Fu Huaichu and Fu Huaizhong, as well as the second prince who died before he grew up. But there is no doubt that Su Zhiruan was far better than her in educating children. "Those two children are both child prodigies. If they are well trained, they will become great people in the future."

As a queen who is second only to the emperor, the fact that she can say such words is enough to show how much importance she attaches to folding leaves and branches.

"I hope Huaichu can work hard and marry Ruanruan as the Crown Princess as soon as possible, so that our whole family can be reunited." The emperor is old, and what he wants most is to have children and grandchildren around him. It's a pity that he only has two children, Fu Huaichu and Fu Huaizhong. The two are very resistant to the idea of ​​marriage. For a long time, the emperor even doubted whether his heir, the crown prince, likes men.

It was not until he learned that Fu Huaichu and Su Zhiruan had a pair of children, and that both children were raised well, that he finally put his mind at ease.

"Once they get married, you and I can relax a little. We have been trapped in the palace for half our lives. Now that I see Huaichu getting married and starting a family, I will feel relieved to hand over the responsibility of the country to him," the emperor held the queen's hand, and they imagined the future together.

* On the other side, Fu Huaichu brought Zhezhi to the East Palace. Zhezhi was always well-behaved and asked a few questions from time to time.

However, the two little maids who had been following them trembling with fear now seemed to be entering the Grand View Garden for the first time. They looked around cautiously, ready to remember everything in their hearts.

"Did Daddy grow up here when he was a kid?" Xiao Zhezhi raised her sparkling eyes and looked up at Fu Huaichu. She closed her eyes because she was exposed to the sun, but she didn't lower her head. She continued to hold her head high and smiled brightly at Fu Huaichu, "This place is so big!"

"Daddy grew up here. Does Zhezhi like it here?" Fu Huaichu moved sideways to block the sunlight for her, allowing Zhezhi to open her eyes again.

Zhezhi shook her head, and when she reached the threshold of the East Palace gate, she couldn't step over it because of her short legs, so she asked Fu Huaichu to pick her up and take her back.

"Zhizhi likes the Jiaoweiqin!" After Zhezhi entered the main hall of the East Palace, she saw the Jiaoweiqin placed next to the incense at first sight, and she immediately ran over.

Fu Huaichu was behind her, watching the little girl quickly pick up her skirt and run over. The two little tassels on her head swayed, making her as lively as a flower fairy.

A warm feeling surged in his heart. This was his little daughter who shared the same blood as him.

At this moment, a sharp voice suddenly sounded——

"How dare you! Who are you? How dare you use the Crown Prince's Jiaowei Qin without permission? Do you want to die?!"

This voice was heard in the main hall. Before Fu Huaichu entered the main hall, he saw his beloved little daughter being scolded by a lowly palace maid.

Zhezhi seemed to be frightened and took a step back on the spot. She was too young and took a step back completely on instinct.

At this time, in the main hall, a palace maid in a palace maid's uniform pointed at Zhezhi and started to curse, uttering foul language non-stop, "Heh, you're so young, were you sold into the palace by your family?! You're such a brat, you actually dared to break into the prince's bedroom without permission. You had so many tricks when you were little, I'm afraid you'll want to get rich overnight when you grow up!"

After hearing what she said, Fu Huaichu's face suddenly turned gloomy.

No matter how sensible and mature Zhezhi was, she had been spoiled by Su Zhiruan since she was a child, and had never suffered a bit of hardship. But now, she was scolded by a lowly palace maid, and she was scolding his daughter in his own palace! "I want to see how you want to ascend to heaven in one step!" Fu Huaichu brushed his sleeves, walked into the hall, and saw the woman who was pointing at Zhezhi.

This senior palace maid looked mean and sharp-tongued. She was as thin as a skeleton, had a sallow complexion, and her eyes showed malice towards the entire world.

But when she saw the little girl who she had just scolded being gently held in Fu Huaichu's arms and comforted, she felt that something was wrong!

"Daddy - who is she?" Zhezhi couldn't hold back any longer after saying this, and threw herself into Fu Huaichu's arms and sobbed, "Daddy, is she yours?"

"Dad, Daddy?"

After hearing this seemingly ordinary little girl crying and saying such words to the honorable Crown Prince, the head palace maid looked as if she was struck by lightning, and was dumbfounded.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince——actually has a child?! And he was offended by her?

The senior palace maid felt completely hopeless.

"Your Highness! Miss - I was wrong. I was blind and did not recognize a great man. I deserve death!" The senior palace maid knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly. An expression of despair appeared on her face.

Every year, some very young girls would enter the palace. They would be trained by special people and assigned to different palaces when they grew up. Generally, there were two endings for these young but very dependent girls. Either they would be chosen by palace maids or eunuchs and become brothers or sisters, which would relieve the loneliness in the palace, or they would be bullied.

But at this moment, she had never imagined in her dreams that the Crown Prince, who had not even gotten married and had no concubines or side concubines in the Eastern Palace, would suddenly come back with a child who called him daddy.

Fu Huaichu's murderous intent emerged, and his voice was cold, "She is my daughter, the princess of this dynasty, and the future eldest princess. Since you can't recognize people if you stay in the palace, why don't you practice underwater? It can be seen that there are not a few palace maids who are bullied by you on weekdays. Shadow, throw her into the water to feed the fish."

Shadow took a step forward, "Yes, Your Highness."

"No, Your Highness!! Princess!! Princess, please, please be magnanimous. I will never bully others again. Please let me go, please!!!"

But her pleas for mercy were of no avail.

Afterwards, the maid's constant begging for mercy became increasingly distant, and finally disappeared completely.

There were still tears in the corners of Zhezhi's eyes, clear and sparkling, "Daddy, please put me down, Zhizhi wants to play the piano."

Fu Huaichu put her on the ground as he was told, and watched his little daughter sit beside the Jiaowei Qin and gently stroke the strings twice.

The clear string sound suddenly fell, Zhezhi raised his head and looked at Fu Huaichu, "Dad, this song was taught to me by mom herself, I will play it for you."

After she finished speaking, she quietly plucked the strings of the zither. The smooth melody gently enveloped the two of them, and Fu Huaichu listened very carefully.

Zhezhi has been a quick learner since she was a child. After Su Zhiruan went through these worlds, she knew a lot of things. On a whim, she personally taught her little daughter a lot of talents.

After the song ended, Zhezhi's anxiety was relieved a lot.

Fu Huaichu rested his elbows on the sandalwood octagonal wood table. He watched his little daughter come over and stop. Then she asked a question.

"Daddy, do you like mommy?" Zhezhi tugged at the corner of his clothes and smiled sweetly, "Zhizhi has a good idea!" (End of this chapter)
