After moving up and down to the Youlan Water Pavilion and the nearby courtyards, they finally had a hot dinner.
The emperor originally sent someone to invite him, but Yan Zhuo refused.
When Huang Mingquan returned to report, the emperor smiled and said to Concubine Qiao, "You're still angry with Xuan Ning, and you're not in a good mood towards me either."
Concubine Qiao picked up some food for the emperor, "Xuan Ning is still young, she doesn't know how much Prince Mo cherishes his future princess."
She's already married, the only thing missing is a child, and you still call her young?
How could the emperor not know that although Concubine Qiao seemed to be protecting her, she was actually secretly trying to please Xuan Ning.
Because Xuan Ning's husband Xiao Jingyu had already been engaged to Concubine Qiao's sister, but Xuan Ning came to him for help and the imperial power put pressure on him, so the Xiao family had to agree whether they agreed or not.
But the emperor felt that he was not wrong in this matter. He only had this one sister, a princess, and a member of the Xiao family. As long as Xuan Ning liked her, there was nothing wrong with it.
When thinking this way, the emperor probably overlooked that Xiao Jingyu was not just an ordinary younger generation of the Xiao family, but the extremely talented Xiao Shiyilang.
He learned literature at the age of three, martial arts at the age of four, poetry at the age of five, and music at the age of seven. For such a young man to marry a princess would be like clipping his wings to fly.
Therefore, Xiao Jingyu has always felt resentful towards Xuan Ning.
The couple seems to be harmonious on the surface, but inside... only Xuan Ning knows.
But even so, it was her own fault and she couldn't blame anyone else.
…
The pavilion is surrounded by lake on three sides, with a cool breeze. It’s a pity that it’s not summer, otherwise we could see lotus flowers all over the pond.
Jiang Ying yawned, feeling really tired after traveling all day.
However, the monkey son was just the opposite of her. He would fall asleep as soon as he sat in the carriage. Now that he had eaten, he was in high spirits.
In the afternoon, Jiang Ying was deceived by the father and son together. His punishment for his monkey son was not to hug him, no matter what.
During this period of time, the little guy reached out to her countless times, but was ignored by Jiang Ying.
Just now, after finishing his meal, the little guy stretched out his hand again and called out in a baby voice, "Mommy, hug me..."
Jiang Ying lay down directly on the chaise longue, "No need to hug. Aren't you and your dad having fun together? It's okay, let him take you out to play again!"
Not only Jiang Ying was not allowed to hold the baby, but Siyu and Yinrui who came with him were also not allowed to interfere. Anyway, Yan Zhuo was allowed to do everything himself, so that he could deeply experience the joy of taking care of a baby.
The father and son, "..."
They stared at each other, feeling helpless.
"I'll carry Zhier to see the water." Silently, Yan Zhuo didn't dare to say anything and just continued to take care of the child.
At the same time, he also felt deeply that taking care of children is tiring, especially without servants to help, so don’t think that it is not easy for men outside and it is easy for women at home!
This is the case when there is only one child in the family. If there are many wives and concubines and a bunch of children, then it would really be...
"Daddy." Suddenly, the little guy saw something and stood up and went into the water. He almost fell in and was pulled back by Yan Zhuo.
She spoke directly from her heart, excitedly, "There's a boat! Can we go boating? Dad, take me boating!"
Calling you daddy with your mouth but calling you scumbag dad in your heart, saying one thing to your face and another behind your back, this is what it means, right?
Yan Zhuo is not opposed to taking his children on a night rafting trip.
However, he didn't want to go alone, so he just lingered around Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying was a little full, and after a little bit of a tantrum, he finally agreed.
Immediately, the monkey son was overjoyed, "Mommy, muah~"
"Mmmmm~" Jiang Ying smiled and kissed the little baby.
Yan Zhuo was so envious that he moved his face closer, but Jiang Ying only sneered at him, almost spitting saliva in his face.
Yan Zhuo was used to it and was not discouraged.
The night wind ruffled the lake water. The simple boat could only accommodate a family of three. It would have seemed crowded with one more person.
Once on the boat, Jiang Ying held the baby and Yan Zhuo rowed the boat.
As a prince, he was naturally not very good at this, so after paddling for a long time, the boat didn't go very far, almost spinning in place.
Fortunately, candles were lit all around the lake, reflecting the shadows of the willow trees on the river bank, which was quite interesting to watch.
After a while, Xiao Yanzhi's biological clock had arrived. Although he slept a lot during the day, the habit he had developed over a long period of time could not be broken in a day or two.
When he was carried off the boat, the little guy was already drowsy.
So, Yan Zhuo naturally left the baby to Siyu and Yinrui, and told them, "The prince and the princess are not in a hurry to go to bed, you take the young master back to sleep first."
The two of them did not suspect anything and carefully took the child away.
Jiang Ying felt uncomfortable sitting in the boat. She felt like her arms and legs couldn't stretch and she didn't feel safe. She was about to get off the boat and walk along the lake, but Yan Zhuo blocked her back unexpectedly.
"I want to go downstairs and take a walk." Jiang Ying appealed.
Yan Zhuo put his arm around her waist and said, "Let's go later."
Jiang Ying was confused, "Why?"
Yan Zhuo lowered his head and pressed his lips against the little woman's, "Because we're going hunting in the mountains tomorrow, and since you won't let me touch the child, I have no choice but to... well, the boat is not bad either, with rippling blue waves. Ying'er, let's go for some waves too!"
The boat was covered, with curtains hung in front and behind, so no one could see it.
But this is messing around on the water...
Jiang Ying couldn't help but bite Yan Zhuo hard, "I think you're not taking your son on a boat trip, it's fake, the real purpose is not the wine!"
And every time he chooses a place, it's always like this...
It's very embarrassing.
Yan Zhuo took advantage of the delicate person in his arms and said, "For the sake of my victory tomorrow, Ying'er, please bear with me for a while~"
