Chapter 372 She Misses the Prince
The next day, Wei Shuhe brought her child into the Eastern Palace.
The child's name is Wei Lan, and his nickname is Zhang Ge'er.
Zhang Ge'er is already seven months old. He has delicate features and is well-mannered, which is in stark contrast to the overly lively Xiao Xiyao.
Xiao Xiyao looked at Zhang Ge'er's white and thin arms and frowned:
"Mother, Brother Lan is so thin and weak, how can he be my bodyguard in the future?"
Among Lin Qingning and her sisters, Wei Shuhe and Princess Jiamin, who have already given birth to children, both gave birth to boys.
Someone joked that day that the two younger brothers would be her bodyguards from now on, and Xiao Xiyao took it seriously.
Lin Qingning reached out helplessly and tapped her daughter's forehead.
"Yaoyao, you are the older sister, you have to protect your younger brothers in the future."
Xiao Xiyao looked at brother Lan's little arm, then looked at her own.
It seems that her arms are thicker?
Xiao Xiyao nodded seriously, "Then I will protect Brother Lan from now on!"
Speaking of which, there are some things that are indescribable.
Zhang Ge'er is a few months younger than Xiao Xiyao.
At the time, Wei Qingxu was the same age as Lin Qingning, but a few months younger than her...
Lin Qingning asked the palace maid to look after the child and told Wei Shuhe about the reward that His Majesty wanted to give.
Lin Qingning: "It seems that we can ask for a special pardon."
"Besides, Su Yue was not the mastermind of what happened back then. If you want to ask for a pardon for him..."
Although the people of Da Chu are open-minded, it is still difficult for a woman to raise a child on her own.
Moreover, Wei Qingxu will also get married and have children in the future.
Wei Shuhe's fingertips trembled slightly.
The next moment, Lin Qingning held her hand and said gently:
"If you want, I will help you ask for this grace. If not, then let's try another grace."
Wei Shuhe: "Qing Ning, to be honest, this is all because of you. I just did what I should do."
Lin Qingning: "What do you mean by what should be done?"
"At the beginning, before anything happened, your willingness to believe in me was the key to making this happen."
Lin Qingning herself lacked experience and did not have Doctor Bai's prescription.
If Wei Shuhe had not trusted them at the first moment, they would not have had time to make so many pills to treat the epidemic.
Lin Qingning said firmly: "So it is only natural that you should be credited with the first achievement!"
"It's either Su Yue's business or something else."
"Think about it quickly. If we can't figure it out ourselves, our mother said she might reward you with gold, silver, treasures, and other vulgar things."
This is also why Emperor Minghe values Lin Qingning as his daughter-in-law.
Otherwise, why would anyone let the other party be so picky in choosing rewards?
It would be nice to be rewarded.
Knowing that Lin Qingning was only thinking about his own good, Wei Shuhe felt warm in his heart.
She whispered, "Actually, after all this time, I still haven't fallen in love with anyone else."
"It's just that Su Yue didn't choose me first back then, so I certainly wouldn't choose him first either."
"You're right. It's very difficult for a woman to support herself with a child. It's very difficult."
"Qingxu will also have to start a family in the future, and I can't make things difficult for him."
"So Qing Ning, can you help me get an identity, such as a county lord, so that I can start my own business."
"This way, even if Qingxu gets married in the future, we won't have any conflicts."
"Besides, I can protect my son."
At all times, she is the sober and rational Wei Shuhe.
Lin Qingning nodded, held her hand and said, "Well, I will ask for this grace for you."
"By the way, Lord Ouyang and his men are coming back soon, and Qingxu will be back by then too."
"I guess his little nephew doesn't recognize him anymore?"
The topic turned to something lighter.
Wei Shuhe also felt relaxed.
Before leaving, Lin Qingning asked Wei Shuhe about the pill.
Wei Shuhe: "I'm not too sure either. I need to write to Master and ask him. Is this matter important?"
Lin Qingning nodded seriously.
If the death of Empress Yuan was really caused by the Empress Dowager.
Based on Emperor Minghe's feelings for Empress Yuan, there is an 80% chance that the Empress Dowager will never act like a demon in front of them in her lifetime.
Of course, it is very important.
Seven days later, Ouyang Rui brought his people back to Beijing and reported to the palace.
Emperor Long Yan of the Ming Dynasty was very happy and rewarded him based on his merits.
Of course, Crown Princess Lin Qingning and Wei Shuhe were not forgotten.
Lin Qingning is already the Crown Princess, and she herself has the status of a Princess.
Therefore, Emperor Minghe gave her a golden medal of immunity from death, which could allow her to plead for one person and exempt that person from the death penalty under any circumstances.
In addition, a hot spring villa, a lush forest farm, shops, and a large number of gold, silver, and treasures were given as rewards.
Everyone couldn't help but smack their lips. His Majesty is so good to the Crown Princess!
But then again, the Crown Princess played a major role in treating the epidemic this time.
She received such a great reward that no one objected.
In fact, the most important thing is that this move completely established her status as the crown princess.
If anyone brings up her background again in the future, we can use this achievement that benefits the country and the people to rubbish on their faces!
This is the most important thing.
In addition, Wei Shuhe was also conferred the title of county lord. Not only did she have the title of An Ning, she also enjoyed a fief and could set up her own household.
The emperor also specially rewarded Wei Shuhe with a large house to serve as a county lady's residence.
And Wei Shuhe’s children can inherit it in the future.
In fact, this is also the emperor's words to the genius doctor, and he wants to do a good thing for Medicine Valley.
Who knows what will happen in the land of Da Chu in the future?
It is never a wrong thing to make friends with a genius doctor with great medical skills.
In addition to rewards, there are also punishments.
Emperor Minghe said in a deep voice: "Prince Jing made a mistake in judgment this time and missed the best time to treat the people, which almost caused a disaster. He will be fined one year's salary, temporarily suspended from all official duties, and confined to reflect on his mistakes for three months!"
Prince Jing's face turned red, but he quickly knelt down.
"Your son obeys your order."
After all the rewards were over, Emperor Minghe looked at Qin Xuanlang and said, "Prince Jing, follow me to the Imperial Study."
Prince Jing: "Yes, Father."
Prince Jing followed Emperor Minghe into the imperial study with a nervous mood.
As soon as he entered, he knelt down on his own initiative.
"Thank you, Father, for your leniency. I was wrong, and I will never make the same mistake again!"
He kowtowed loudly.
Prince Jing is still very scared about this incident, and he does have some selfish thoughts.
But at the same time, the most terrifying thing is that Zhao Yi, his aide who has followed him for many years, is actually from Xiliang.
In other words, the few times that I acted impulsively before might have been instigated by someone.
Fortunately, when he wanted to seize the throne, he retired at the right time.
Otherwise, I would have died without knowing how!
Looking at his son kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to admit his mistake, Emperor Minghe sighed.
"At first you couldn't stand your third brother, and you thought you were no worse than him, so you kept lying low. I know all about that."
"You are indeed smarter than him."
"But sometimes your cleverness can lead to mistakes. And because you have been dormant for so long, you are not confident and feel unwilling to give up."
"But in all fairness, how do you compare to the prince?"
Prince Jing said quickly: "I am far inferior to my brother the Crown Prince!"
Emperor Minghe: "So from now on, just be a minister. I can forgive you for this time, but if you do it again, I will punish you severely!"
Prince Jing rested his head on the ground.
"Yes, Father!"
Emperor Minghe looked at him gently, "Xuanlang, I neglected you before. You had a hard time when you were young, and I was also wrong."
"But as a member of the royal family, no matter what, I cannot let the common people suffer because of my own selfishness."
"I forgive you this time, and you understand why."
"But this is really the last time that I will forgive you."
Prince Jing kept his head on the ground and kowtowed solemnly once again.
When he was a child, his father was very indifferent to him and couldn't even remember how old he was.
He was very envious of how well his father treated his third brother.
This is the result, I grew up alone... and now, my father actually apologized to me. I actually waited for my father's apology?
Prince Jing burst into tears.
"Father, please rest assured. I will behave myself and do my duty well in the future, helping you and my brother solve all your problems."
"If you ever do anything stupid again out of selfishness, I will strike you with lightning and you will die a miserable death!"
Emperor Minghe helped him up with his own hands.
"Okay, go back early and reflect on your mistakes."
"Yes, Father."
It was expected by everyone that Prince Jing would be punished.
However, everyone was surprised that Wei Shuhe was conferred the title of county lord and had her own county lord mansion.
Nalan Zhu'er and others were very happy.
After the county lord's mansion was tidied up, Wei Shuhe moved there.
As for the courtyard that had been selected earlier, it would be used as Wei Mansion, and would be left for my younger brother to live in when he got married and had children.
It was also thoughtful of Emperor Minghe that the County Princess's Mansion he granted was actually on the same street as the original Wei Mansion.
When Wei Shuhe moved to a new house, Lin Qingning also went.
Everyone rushed out to greet her.
Nalan Zhuer held Lin Qingning's hand and said with a smile: "In the future, Sister Wei can find a live-in son-in-law, and everything will be perfect."
Lin Qingning glanced at Wei Shuhe worriedly.
Wei Shuhe just smiled and said nothing.
However, Wei Qingxu next to him frowned and said:
"A brother-in-law who marries into my sister's family? He has to pass my test. If he is not worthy of my sister, I will not allow him to come to my house!"
Seeing Wei Qingxu's eager appearance, everyone felt that if someone wanted to marry into the family in the future, they would probably have to pass five levels and defeat six generals, which would be very difficult.
Looking at the bustling county lord's mansion, Princess Jiamin suddenly sighed:
"The only one missing is Aya. I don't know when she will come back."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly remembered Lin Qingning who was standing next to her, and hurriedly asked, "Qingning, do you miss His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Lin Qingning smiled generously and said, "Of course I do."
If possible, she hoped Jing Yu would come back when she gave birth.
Since she admitted it so openly, others couldn't make fun of her. However, Wei Qingxu, who was standing next to her, had a subtle hint of sadness in his eyes.
No one noticed.
At this moment, Nalan Zhu'er suddenly started to dry heave.
Princess Jiamin said in surprise, "No way, Zhu'er, you want to vomit just because Qing Ning said she missed the prince?"
