Chapter 395: The Emperor dotes on her too much, showing off with his grandchildren, and making her stupid for three years after pregnancy
The empress didn't say anything, and the emperor thought she was happy, so he ordered Qingying to prepare breakfast.
The royal family attaches great importance to etiquette and regulations. During the meal, Shen Chuwei ate the food in front of her carefully, taking the principle of eating without speaking to the extreme.
She was not interested in the content of the conversation between the emperor and the prince. She was only interested in the crystal buns and red bean rolls on the table.
But the distance is a bit far, and I need to stand up to reach it.
His Highness was discussing serious matters with the Emperor, and she didn't want to disturb them.
The Queen saw Shen Chuwei keeping her head down while eating the meal in front of her. She looked at the crystal buns in front of her and picked one up and put it in Shen Chuwei's bowl.
"Princess, this is your favorite crystal bun, try it."
"Thank you, mother." Shen Chuwei had been salivating for a long time. She couldn't wait to pick up the crystal bun from the bowl and put it into her mouth to take a bite. The soup was rich and delicious.
When the emperor saw this, he coughed lightly and reminded the queen to give him a crystal bag as well.
The queen didn't even raise her head and drank the porridge in the bowl elegantly.
The emperor waited for a while, and when he saw that the empress did not respond, he felt unhappy. However, he could not lose his temper in front of the crown prince and the crown princess.
After breakfast, the group of four went to the Hehuan Hall in the East Palace.
At this time, Susu had already woken up in the crib. After eating and drinking, she lay on the bed and played with her brother's little feet.
The chubby little hands were bending their toes, and the serious look in their eyes made them look like a little scholar studying something extraordinary.
Xuetuan jumped nimbly from the couch to the railing of the crib, and then jumped lightly into the crib.
Yuanrunyan raised his gray head and watched Xuetuan jump into the crib. However, he did not have the ability to climb as high as Xuetuan, otherwise he would also go to the crib to check on Taotao and Susu.
Susu, who was originally playing with her brother's little feet, saw the snowball and smiled happily, and stretched out her little hand towards the snowball.
"Aiya, aiya." The five fingers of the little hand seemed to be grabbing something, probably trying to grab a snowball.
Xuetuan looked at the little ancestor and walked over with graceful steps. As soon as he got close, the little ancestor grabbed him and hugged his neck.
Susu's enthusiastic behavior made Xuetuan a little flattered. Usually, he would grab the feet and tail and drag it over~
"Meow" Xuetuan expressed his happiness and rubbed Susu's hand with his head.
This was the scene that the empress and the emperor saw when they came in, and they were both shocked.
The emperor bent down and picked up Susu, and the empress followed suit and picked up Taotao.
The emperor comforted Susu and asked in a loud voice, "Who put the cat in here? Get the cat out quickly. What if it hurts Susu?"
The wet nurses heard the noise and came in, kneeling on the ground.
Shen Chuwei saw Xuetuan looking at the emperor and Susu in confusion, so she reached out and picked it up, then explained: "Father, Xuetuan is very well behaved and will not hurt Susu."
The emperor didn't think so. He stared at the cat in Shen Chuwei's arms, "The cat usually looks obedient. If it gets crazy and scratches Susu, it will be too late to regret it."
Susu looked at the snowball and reached out to grab it, "Eeyore..."
The emperor coaxed her, "Susu, that's a cat. It will scratch you. Let's not play with it."
Susu curled her lips and continued to reach out for the snowball.
Xiao Jinyan said, "Father, Xuetuan is a spiritual being, unlike ordinary cats. Ordinary people cannot get close to Xuetuan, and those who can get close to Xuetuan will not become targets of attack."
The emperor glanced at the snowball in Shen Chuwei's arms and questioned, "Really?"
Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Father, it is absolutely true, Xuetuan is very protective of his master."
Even though the prince was so sure, the emperor was still a little worried, "You have to be careful, Susu is still so young, it would be bad if she got hurt."
Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyebrows and nodded, "Father is right."
Shen Chuwei carried Xuetuan to the couch, put it on the couch and let it play by itself.
Susu's beautiful big eyes were always staring at the snowball, and her little hands were reaching out to the snowball from time to time.
The emperor looked at Susu's actions and couldn't help but laugh, "Susu, can the emperor take you out for a walk?"
Susu didn't understand what the emperor said at all. When she saw the emperor talking to her, she grinned happily.
The emperor couldn't help laughing when he saw it, "Your Majesty, take you out."
After saying that, he carried Susu out of the house.
The Queen held Taotao in her arms and watched the Dog Emperor's actions. She found that he really liked his granddaughter. No wonder he wanted her to give birth to a princess.
But then again, with so many sons and no daughter, I would indeed prefer granddaughters.
She looked down at Taotao in her arms. Taotao had just woken up, and when he saw the queen, he grinned.
When the empress saw this, she also laughed, and so did her grandchildren.
"I'm going to take Taotao out to play." The queen said and then carried Taotao out.
For a moment, only Xiao Jinyan and Shen Chuwei were left in the room.
Xiao Jinyan said: "Father and mother like Taotao and Susu very much."
"Taotao and Susu are so cute, it's normal to like them." Shen Chuwei herself didn't expect that she also likes the two little babies so much.
Xiao Jinyan held her hand and said, "I will take you to see the account book of the East Palace and the records of interpersonal relationships and dealings."
"What are you looking at those for?" Shen Chuwei looked at Xiao Jinyan in confusion. She was thinking about lying down and eating some cherries. There were so many cherries, she must eat more while they were fresh.
"You are the Crown Princess now. These are what you will see in the future. Let's go." Xiao Jinyan led her out.
Shen Chuwei followed Xiao Jinyan to the study with a confused look on her face.
Liu Xi came over with a pile of account books and placed them on the desk.
Xiao Jinyan patted a pile of account books and said, "I know you are very smart. This is not a difficult task for you."
Shen Chuwei glanced at the account book in Xiao Jinyan's palm and immediately felt dizzy. "Your Highness, you think too highly of me. Isn't Concubine Xu in charge of the affairs of the Eastern Palace? Let her continue to be in charge."
"You will have to take over the affairs of the Eastern Palace sooner or later. Now you are the Crown Princess and you are in charge of the Eastern Palace. In the future, you will be the Empress and you will be in charge of the six palaces. Learning now will pave the way for the future."
As for Concubine Xu, it is impossible for her to help manage the Eastern Palace for her entire life. Besides, it was not Concubine Xu who was managing the Eastern Palace during this period, but Tao Liangyuan. Concubine Xu couldn't even read the account book.
He accidentally heard that Concubine Xu was thinking about leaving the palace.
During these two years, Concubine Xu has changed a lot. She has always wanted to be the Crown Princess, but suddenly she doesn't want to be the Crown Princess anymore.
Now I just have fun in the East Palace, and I will leave when I have enough fun.
If she doesn't leave the palace this year, she will have to leave the palace next year. The girl's age is very important.
Shen Chuwei held Xiao Jinyan's hand and said in a coquettish tone imitating the one in a romance novel: "Your Highness, can we wait until that day to talk about it? I am now three years old and stupid. My IQ will be reduced during these three years. As for the account book, I definitely can't understand it."
"In my eyes, you are the smartest one. Don't underestimate yourself. Come, I will teach you something simple first."
Xiao Jinyan led her to the desk and sat down.
There was a double chair in front of the desk, which Xiao Jinyan specially asked Wei Chi to prepare.
"Look, these are the monthly expenses of the East Palace, and these are the income of the East Palace. Take a look at them all."
"And this..."
Shen Chuwei listened with one ear and out the other, and she didn't remember a word Xiao Jinyan said.
Xiao Jinyan pushed the pile of account books in front of her and said gently, "Look at it first. If you don't understand, ask me."
"...Okay." Shen Chu responded humbly and picked up a book to look at it.
She secretly glanced at Xiao Jinyan and saw him taking out a memorial to review.
Starting to review memorials so early?
Shen Chuwei looked over in confusion and saw a pile of memorials in front of Xiao Jinyan... The emperor took Susu out to play, and it turned out that someone had shared the work for the emperor...
At this time, the Queen came to Yu Garden holding Taotao, and saw Yun Xianbai and Yin'er reciting poems from a distance.
She recalled that when the prince was this old, he could already recite poems on his own.
"Taotao, Grandma Huang will take you to see it."
The Queen carried Taotao into the pavilion.
When Concubine Yun saw the empress coming, she pulled Yin'er forward to pay her respects.
"I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen."
Yin'er said in a baby voice: "Grandson pays respects to Grandma."
"Get up. I'm carrying the Crown Prince out for a walk. I didn't expect Concubine Yun to be here too." The Queen said as she teased Taotao in her arms.
Taotao cooperated by grinning, uttering unreadable syllables, "Aiya!"
Concubine Yun looked at Taotao in the empress's arms and said perfunctorily, "The crown prince is already this big."
"That's right. The Crown Prince is very smart. The Crown Princess is very hardworking and gave birth to a dragon and a phoenix in one pregnancy. I have a grandson and a granddaughter. This luck is not shared by ordinary people." The Queen glanced at Yun Xianzhai. He only knew how to show off his grandson all day long. Do you have a granddaughter? I do.
How could Concubine Yun not hear that the Queen was showing off?
"The Crown Princess is indeed very ambitious, but a granddaughter will come sooner or later."
The queen smiled and said, "Prince Cheng is in good health now. He can indeed have a second and third child."
Concubine Yun looked unhappy. "Thank you for your concern, Her Majesty. Prince Cheng is feeling much better now."
"That's the best. It's a little hot outside. Let's go back and play with our sister, okay?" The queen hugged Taotao and left happily.
Concubine Yun was so angry that she really didn't know what kind of luck the Crown Princess had to give birth to a dragon and phoenix twin, and even the Emperor loved them so much.
In the dead of night
The emperor finished the work at hand.
The Jingshifang brought the green card and asked the emperor to turn it over.
The emperor, who had abstained from sex for more than half a month, glanced at the green card and said, "Go to the queen."
The empress did not have a green card because she was the legal wife. Even if the emperor did not want to go, she could only go for four days every month.
When they arrived at Fengyi Palace, before entering, Qingying stepped forward and saluted, "Your Majesty, the Queen has gone to bed."
Every time he came, the emperor felt a little dissatisfied, "I can't go in after I rest?"
Qingying lowered her eyebrows and nodded: "I dare not."
The emperor snorted and pushed the door open and went in.
Qingying didn't stop him either. After all, he was the emperor, who dared to stop him?
When the emperor came in, he saw the queen lying on the bed.
It's been more than half a month, even if you are still angry, it's time to calm down.
But the queen was always cold and indifferent to him.
It’s probably related to Ye Chu.
