Almost half of the people in the imperial city went out for this autumn hunt.
Originally, the Queen Mother was going to go, but ever since the incident with Concubine Zhao, her health had not improved, and had even gotten worse. She was still stubborn and refused to summon Jiang Ying into the palace, thinking that Jiang Ying's medical skills were all exaggerated and she didn't believe it at all.
In this case, no one would take the initiative to curry favor with her, right?
Even the emperor followed her lead, and her condition worsened and she couldn't even leave the house.
However, although she did not go, she still sent Eunuch Qin to see the mountain scenery on her behalf so that he could tell her about it after returning to the palace.
After knowing this, Jiang Ying looked at Eunuch Qin with even deeper eyes.
They set out early in the morning, and no matter whether they were from the residences of princes and nobles or the homes of important court officials, they all lined up at the palace gate to facilitate the leadership of the Royal Guards.
As a result, everyone spent more than an hour just queuing.
When it was almost time, the emperor, empress, and the ceremonial processions of Concubine Ruan and Concubine Qiao came out of the palace.
He was neither hurried nor slow, making the waiting people smile on their faces but feel silly in their hearts.
Concubine Chen had not yet finished her confinement, so she was unable to accompany the emperor this time. However, because of her contribution to childbirth, she was conferred the title of Imperial Noble Concubine, a rank only lower than that of the Empress, and was given the courtesy name "Shumin".
The title of Imperial Noble Consort Shumin is too long and people are not used to it, so it is simply called Imperial Noble Consort.
The carriage was about to depart. Yue Xi walked quickly to the outside of Prince Mo's carriage. Si Yu saw it with her sharp eyes and immediately lifted the curtain. "Princess, it's Aunt Yue Xi who is with the Imperial Concubine. She must have come to see you specially."
Jiang Ying held his son and moved to the window. "Aunt Yuexi, is there something wrong?"
"My master asked me to come." Yue Xi smiled and had a very good attitude.
Jiang Ying's kindness in giving Chen Guifei a new life was equivalent to giving her a new life.
Concubine Chen herself also wanted to manage this relationship well so that she could have a good doctor for the healthy growth of her princes and princesses.
Yuexi was naturally more respectful to Jiang Ying.
At this moment, he hurriedly handed over the brocade box in his hand, "My queen said that Princess Mo must have everything she wants, but having everything she wants is one thing, and her feelings are another.
The things in this brocade box may be useful to Princess Mo during the autumn hunt, so please accept them."
"Set off--"
The main force in the front has already set off, and Prince Mo's Palace is not far behind the emperor's procession. If they don't leave now, they will block the people behind and won't be able to move forward!
Therefore, Jiang Ying took it without hesitation, "Okay, thank you for your kindness, Royal Noble Consort. If there is anything else, I will go to the palace to talk to you after I come back from the autumn hunt."
"I wish the prince, princess and young master a safe journey." Yue Xi bowed flatteringly and watched their carriage go away.
Still in the imperial city, Yan Zhuo, like most of the children from aristocratic families, rode a horse and escorted his own carriage.
Most of the female members rode in carriages, but people like Lu Yanran, who were raised as boys, were naturally excluded.
Jiang Ying didn't pay attention to Lu Yanran at first, mainly because there were many royal families between Prince Mo's Mansion and the people behind it, including Princess Xuanning's Mansion.
The line was so long that it was difficult for her to even take a look at the Duke's Mansion.
Moreover, she is not yet the legitimate Princess Mo. It is one thing to agree to be with Yan Zhuo, but it is another to stick her head out in a high-profile manner and let others know and complain that she is shameless.
When she turned the corner, she happened to glance at the Duke's Mansion's team and saw her elder brother looking back frequently. She followed his gaze and found Lu Yanran in a red riding uniform.
The only heroic girl on horseback really attracts people's attention.
However, this girl is already a confirmed wife of the Jiang family, and Jiang Ying feels quite proud when he thinks of this.
Reaching out and pinching his son's chubby face, who was standing against the car wall and looking out with interest, Jiang Ying said with a smile, "My dear, you should be like your uncle in the future and find a wife like your aunt who is bold and unrestrained, okay?"
It’s not that being a lady is bad, but someone like Lu Yanran has a clear distinction between love and hate. No matter who she marries, she will definitely live a good life.
Little Yanzhi held onto the window frame with one hand, his chubby face squinting as he glanced in the direction of Lu Yanran, whom Jiang Ying mentioned, with disdain:
[Tsk tsk, I don't want that. Women are the most troublesome!]
If I had to find someone, I would definitely look for someone like my mother, who has a sharp tongue but a kind heart, and is lovely, beautiful, and capable.
[But alas... what a pity, a flower stuck in cow dung.]
Yan Zhuo, who was riding beside him, said, "..."
I can't pretend that I can hear your thoughts now, little brat. Wait until you can speak coherently, then try saying it again!
In anger, Yan Zhuo picked up the sword beside him that was not working, and with controlled strength, poked the little fleshy hand of Yan Zhi on the window frame.
The latter instinctively let go to avoid it, but the carriage just happened to shake, and the little guy suddenly fell backwards into the carriage...
My parents were immediately frightened.
Fortunately, Siyu was quick-witted and knelt in the carriage in time to catch the person.
Little Yanzhi was also frightened, and he couldn't recover for a long time after being held up by Siyu's butt.
Yan Zhuo looked through the car window and saw that his son was fine. He breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly put the heavy sword back to its place with a guilty conscience.
He looked straight ahead, pretending to be very serious about riding the horse, not daring to look at Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying glared at him and said, "Why are you so rude? If you make him angry later, you will have to comfort him yourself."
Yan Zhuo curled his lips.
I wondered, did he give birth to a son, or was he an ancestor?
It was obviously the son who cursed his father in his heart first!
There's just... no place to seek justice.
The large army moved as slowly as an ant moving house. Problems arose in one household after another. Even though the aristocratic families had tried their best to cooperate and did not dare to let the emperor and empress's team in front wait, accidents still caused some delays.
