Chapter 472: Moved, let Lu Zhaoyan tell the prince's fortune

When Shen Chuwei and Tao Liangyuan arrived, Song Qing was sitting at the desk drinking tea and reading, and Taotao and Chu Lingfeng were practicing calligraphy.

Having reached the door of the study, Tao Liangyuan hesitated again.

Seeing that she was standing still, Shen Chuwei reached out and took her hand and walked inside. Tao Liangyuan was forced to follow her in. When she saw Song Qing, she found that he had not changed after not seeing him for a few days, but the look in his eyes seemed a little different from before.

Song Qing was the one who paid the most attention to etiquette and rules. When he saw the Crown Princess and Tao Liangyuan coming, he immediately stood up and greeted them: "Crown Princess, Tao Liangyuan."

Shen Chuwei said, "You continue reading. I'll come over to see how Taotao is writing."

Song Qing nodded and returned to his desk to continue reading.

Shen Chu glanced sideways at Tao Liangyuan, only to see her shaking her head. She patted her shoulder soothingly, then came to Taotao's desk.

Tao Liangyuan watched Song Qing lower his head and continue reading. She did not try to find a topic to talk about as she did before. She came to the bookshelf, took out a book and opened it. She didn't know why Song Qing liked reading saintly books so much, but she didn't like reading them. They were not as interesting as the storybook given by Shen Chuwei.

She was holding the book at the moment. It didn't matter whether she read it or not. She was just pretending.

Tao Liangyuan heard the rustling sound of turning pages, which came from Song Qing. She looked at Song Qing's headband, which was green and embroidered with bamboo leaves.

"The book is upside down."

Tao Liangyuan was staring at the bamboo leaves when she suddenly heard Song Qing talking. Because she was distracted and didn't hear clearly what he said, she looked at Song Qing in confusion.

Song Qing repeated: "The book is upside down."

Tao Liangyuan heard it clearly this time. She lowered her head to look at the book in her hand and found that she had held it upside down. Her face turned red with embarrassment and she quickly turned the book over and put it right side up.

Song Qing looked at Tao Liangyuan's actions, then retracted his gaze, with the corners of his lips slightly raised in an imperceptible arc.

Although Taotao is only 17 months old, he has gone from scribbles at the beginning to being able to clearly recognize what characters he writes now. Compared with his peers, he is much more capable.

Shen Chuwei actually doesn't have any requirements for her son, but as a member of the royal family, she can't just say no to requirements. Xiao Jinyan only has this one son, how can he not be outstanding?

Looking at her son's handwriting, she thought it was already very impressive.

Taotao raised her head and looked at her mother, her eyes tilted with joy: "Mother."

Shen Chuwei praised generously, "My son is amazing. He can write at just over a year old. When I was a little over a year old, all I knew was how to eat."

In fact, she doesn't remember what she was doing when she was as old as Taotao. However, judging from her appearance, it was probably all about eating.

Taotao put down her red brush, picked up the rice paper on the desk and raised it happily, "I want to show it to my father."

Shen Chu patted Tao Tao's head soothingly, "When your father comes back, you can show it to him."

Taotao silently put down the rice paper. He hadn't seen his father for three months and didn't know why his father hadn't come back for so long.

Chu Lingfeng held a pen in his hand and looked at the heartwarming scene between the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince with an envious look in his eyes.

"Small pot, second sugar."

Chu Lingfeng turned his head when he heard the voice and saw the little princess raising her hand. In her hand was a candy wrapped in green candy paper. Her pink little face was looking at him expectantly.

"Thank you, little princess." Chu Lingfeng took the candy from her hand.

Susu happily took out another candy from her bag and held it in front of Chu Lingfeng, "Little Pot, you want one too."

Chu Lingfeng took a look at the candy in front of him, then looked at her expectant movements, and roughly guessed that she wanted him to peel off the candy wrapper.

He took the candy from her hand and then slowly peeled off the candy wrapper. As soon as he did so, a small hand reached out impatiently, as if afraid that he would eat it.

He raised a faint smile and gave her the candy.

Susu took the candy and put it into her mouth. When she tasted the sweetness, she immediately smiled with joy.

She threw herself into Chu Lingfeng's arms, "Xiao Guoguo, let's go play together."

Chu Lingfeng put the candy into his sleeve pocket and looked at the little princess who suddenly jumped into his arms. Her pair of dark and sparkling eyes seemed to be able to speak.

"I'll go play with you after I finish writing."

"Oh." Although Susu was small, she could understand the general meaning of Chu Lingfeng's words.

Shen Chuwei had already noticed that her precious daughter had arrived, and she took her daughter with her when she left, so as not to disturb Chu Lingfeng from practicing calligraphy.

Shen Chuwei told Tao Liangyuan that Xiao Jinyu was planning to have an in-depth discussion with Song Qing.

Tao Liangyuan was a little worried, "Prince Yu won't use his power to oppress others, right?"

Shen Chu comforted him, "Don't worry. Although Prince Yu has the potential to be a little tyrant, he has matured a lot after getting married and is not so childish anymore."

Tao Liangyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, I'll try again."

After Tao Liangyuan left, Shen Chuwei took Susu to Xiyun Pavilion to see how the watermelon was doing, wondering if they could come back in time to eat the watermelon.

Xiaobai followed closely behind, and none of the passing palace maids and eunuchs dared to approach.

When they arrived at Xiyun Pavilion, Shen Chuwei saw that the watermelon vines were growing well. When she turned around, she found a man and a tiger lying on the fence next to the chicken coop.

Every time they come to Xiyun Pavilion, Susu and Xiaobai would stare at the chicken coop. The former wanted to play with the chicks, while the latter just wanted to eat some.

Susu reached her little hand into the fence, pointed at the chicks and shouted, "Chiji, come out and play."

Not to be outdone, Xiaobai thrust his claws in and howled, scaring a bunch of chickens and roosters to death.

Shen Chuwei called out: "Susu, Xiaobai."

Susu turned around and saw her mother, and immediately withdrew her hand and walked over.

Xiaobai also retracted his claws and walked over with his head lowered. He walked very slowly, like a child who had done something wrong.

Susu hugged her mother's thighs, raised her little face and asked in a baby voice: "Mom, I miss father so much."

Shen Chuwei looked at her daughter and inexplicably felt that the scene looked particularly familiar.

In the afternoon, Shen Chuwei woke up from a nap and saw a small figure lying on the couch. The little figure reached into the cabinet, grabbed a handful of candy and stuffed it into his bag.

There were only three candies in the bag every day, and they were gone after they were eaten.

This will steal the candy, indicating that the candy in the bag has been eaten.

"Susu, don't eat too much candy. Be careful not to get your teeth eaten by bugs." Shen Chuwei said as she put the candy back into her bag.

Susu saw that the candy in the bag was gone, and threw herself into her mother's arms, saying aggrievedly: "Mom, I miss father so much."

Shen Chuwei: "..." She realized why her daughter's behavior looked so familiar, because she often said this when she was pregnant...

Is this also genetic?

Even so, Shen Chuwei didn't give Susu any candy.

When Qin Xiao came, he came from outside the palace, carrying a lot of things in large and small bags.

When he passed by Chunxi, he placed one of the bags in front of her and said, "This is for you."

Chunxi saw a bag of things in front of him, raised his head and saw Qin Xiao, "Why did you buy me something again?"

Qin Xiao said: "I'll buy it when I see it. I'll go see the Crown Princess first."

Chunxi nodded.

After Qin Xiao left, Chunxi opened the bag and saw a piece of cloth inside with a beautiful color.

In addition to the cloth, there was also food wrapped in oil paper, which should be pastries.

Whenever Qin Xiao went out of the palace to buy something, he would buy some for Chunxi. He would buy whatever he saw, whether it was food or daily necessities.

Shen Chuwei saw Qin Xiao coming in and didn't care about eating. "Did His Highness send a letter home?"

Qin Xiao shook his head, "No."

"Oh." Shen Chuwei withdrew her gaze with some disappointment, and saw the large and small bags in Qin Xiao's hands. She knew they were food without even looking.

She couldn't take care of food now, so she looked back at Qin Xiao and asked, "Then why has the letter from home been delayed for so long?"

Qin Xiao said: "I have already asked, but I don't know the reason yet."

"Then I'll write a letter and ask." Shen Chuwei said as he took out a pen and paper and wrote a letter. The letter was not long, just a few hundred words.

After writing, she folded the letters, put them into an envelope, sealed it, and then handed it to Qin Xiao.

After sending the letter, Shen Chuwei began to look forward to a reply.

The Queen came just in time for lunch. She hadn't dined with the Crown Princess for some days, so this was a good opportunity to see her grandchildren.

Shen Chuwei looked at the empress across from her and gave some chicken legs to Taotao and Susu. She thought of Xiao Jinyan and asked, "Mother, the letter from His Highness hasn't arrived in more than ten days. Is the battle situation on the front line very intense?"

Shen Chuwei only learned a little about what was happening on the front line from letters. Xiao Jinyan had won many battles, but now more than a month had passed and no one knew how the battle situation was going.

The smile on the Queen's lips froze. This was the reason why she didn't dare to come to the East Palace. She was afraid that Shen Chuwei would ask her about the Crown Prince.

"I don't know either. Maybe you haven't written to me because you're too busy? This time, Da Xia is facing not only the Xueyue Kingdom, but also the Fengqi Kingdom. A fierce war is inevitable."

Shen Chuwei thought of the cruel and bloody scenes on the battlefield and couldn't help but worry: "He is too busy and doesn't even have time to write a letter. Is he too busy to sleep?"

The Queen looked at Shen Chuwei's worried face. If she knew that the prince had fallen off a cliff and disappeared, she would definitely be sad. She lowered her head guiltily.

Susu took a bite of the chicken leg in her hand and puffed her cheeks to help her son: "Father, come and buy us some good ones."

Shen Chuwei raised his head and looked at his daughter, only to see that her mouth was full of oil and her chubby little face was also greasy. Her mouth was full but it was not enough, she was still thinking about her father coming back to buy food?

But having said that, Chunxi must kill one more chicken tomorrow, otherwise she will have no chicken legs to chew on.

The Queen was afraid that she might let the cat out of the bag, so she played with Susu for a while and then returned to Fengyi Palace.

At night, when the dog emperor came, the queen asked, "Have you found the prince?"

The emperor shook his head. "There is no news about the prince in Mobei yet. No news does not mean it is bad news. As long as he has not been found, it means he is still alive."

The Queen also felt that what the Dog Emperor said made sense. "I went to the East Palace to visit my grandchildren today, and the Crown Princess asked about this matter. The Crown Prince hasn't sent a letter home this month, and Susu also misses her father."

Susu hasn't seen her father for three months. She must miss him, but she is too young to understand anything.

"I have sent someone to ask Lu Zhaoyan to come back quickly. When the time comes, I will let Lu Zhaoyan tell the prince's fortune."
