Chapter 178 Mother and Son Meet
The emperor first picked up the fourth princess, weighed her, and said with a smile:
"Chun'er, you've gained some weight recently and grown taller."
Xiangpin laughed and said, "If she can eat and sleep well, who will grow if she doesn't?"
Then he said to the Fourth Princess, "Come down quickly. Your father is not fully recovered yet. Don't tire him out."
After hearing this, the fourth princess obediently came down from the emperor's arms.
The fourth princess skipped to Xiangpin's side, and then the emperor held Li Pei in his arms.
Seeing Li Pei looking at him timidly, he said:
"Sheng'er, you've suffered so much these days. It's my fault that I didn't take good care of you.
"Sheng'er, do you blame your father?"
Li Pei couldn't see his mother, so when he saw his father being so affectionate, he immediately burst into tears.
"Father, I thought you and mother didn't want me anymore... wuwu..."
The emperor listened, touched his head and said:
"Silly child, as long as you have our royal blood in you, your father will not abandon you."
The implication of this statement is that as long as you are of royal blood, the emperor will take care of you.
Li Pei was still young and couldn't understand the hidden meaning.
But no one present could not understand.
The emperor patiently held Li Pei and coaxed him again and again, and finally held him and played chess with the fourth princess.
The father and his two sons were having a great time together. After half a day, they saw that Li Pei had recovered a lot.
The virtuous concubine sent someone to call the sixth prince.
Li Pei was also familiar with this brother, and he quickly became friends with the four princesses and the other two.
Feng Shenyu saw that it was almost time and prepared to leave.
The emperor said, "I have been worried about my aunt's health lately. Please, Xiangpin, leave the palace and go see my aunt on my behalf."
"I obey your command."
"Mother is leaving the palace?" The Fourth Princess looked up and asked in surprise.
"Yes, didn't you hear what your father said?" Xiangpin said with a smile.
"Then I want to go with my mother."
"You can ask your father and see what he thinks." Xiangpin went along with it.
The fourth princess turned around and looked at the emperor hopefully.
The emperor nodded and said, "Okay, since I am pleased today, I will allow you and your sixth and seventh brothers to go together.
When you go there, you must listen to your mother and not act naughty."
The fourth princess was very excited when she heard this and said, "I will obey your order and will definitely listen to what you say, mother."
The Sixth Prince was also very happy when he heard that he was going to leave the palace.
The emperor summoned the sixth prince to Taiji Palace and naturally told Sun Zhaorong the reason. Sun Zhaorong had already told the sixth prince to be obedient.
When the Sixth Prince heard that he was going to leave the palace, he nodded and said, "Don't worry, Father. I will be obedient."
Li Pei also wanted to be with his brother and sister at this moment, so he nodded.
Although he really wanted to see his mother at this moment, it was also good to see his father, as his father did not reject him.
I could also play with my brothers and sisters, which was also nice, so I agreed.
The group arrived at Li Yueyao's house in a mighty procession.
Feng Shenyu had returned earlier and told Li Yueyao about Li Pei's affairs.
After such a long time, Li Yueyao had already calmed down Princess Jin.
After hearing about Li Pei's experience and the emperor's plan, Princess Jin nodded.
"Your Majesty is very thoughtful. He is thinking about Pei'er."
Li Yueyao patted her hands and said, "The Concubine Xian has had someone examine her. There is a round birthmark on the inside of her left thigh."
After hearing this, Princess Jin burst into tears again.
Li Yueyao continued to comfort him, "You must control your emotions later. Don't lose control and scare the children."
Princess Jin wiped her tears, took a few deep breaths, and calmed herself down.
"Aunt is right. I've gotten through so many difficult times. This one won't make me any less."
"Oh, that's the right thing to think."
As the two were talking, they heard the voice of a child outside.
The Fourth Princess's lively voice came in: "Wow, my great-aunt's house is so elegant, the flowers are even more beautiful than those in the palace."
Xiangpin's gentle voice came: "That's right, the scenery of your great-aunt's courtyard emphasizes the concept of harmony between nature and man.
Naturally, they are much more skilled than those gardeners in the palace."
"Wow, my great aunt is so amazing!"
Li Yueyao was listening to the fourth princess's childish talk in the house and started laughing.
Several people came into the room and greeted Li Yueyao.
Li Yueyao waved her hand, asking them to excuse themselves, and then waved towards the fourth princess.
"Come, Chun'er, come closer and let your great aunt take a look."
The fourth princess was so happy that she ran over and almost threw herself into Li Yueyao's arms.
Both Xiangpin and Cuiyu were shocked.
Who knew that the fourth princess suddenly stopped, pointed at Li Yueyao's belly and said:
"My great aunt is pregnant with a little brother."
When Princess Jin saw Li Pei coming in, she stared at the thin Li Pei with her eyes looking very pretty.
Li Pei was horrified by what he saw.
At this time, when he heard the fourth princess say this, he smiled and said:
"The fourth princess is wrong. It's my uncle who's pregnant with my great-aunt, not my brother."
"uncle?"
The fourth princess didn't understand why he had to call her uncle and looked puzzled.
This cute expression successfully pleased Princess Jin and Li Yueyao.
Li Yueyao held the Fourth Princess's hand and said, "This question is too profound. It's not something our Fourth Princess can understand right now."
"Cui Yu, bring some delicious food to the Fourth Princess."
Cui Yu smiled and handed the children's snacks that had been prepared on the table early in the morning to the fourth princess.
When the fourth princess saw the food, she no longer worried about whether it was her uncle or her brother.
"Xiangpin, come and sit down."
Li Yueyao greeted Xiangpin.
Xiangpin smiled, walked over and sat down beside the bed.
Li Yueyao waved to the Sixth Prince and Li Pei again, asking them to come over.
Cuiyu gave snacks to both of them, and the three of them ate happily.
Li Yueyao saw the concern in Princess Jin's eyes and said, "Cui Yu, take the pulses of the three young princes.
Watch what you eat, don't overeat and get an upset stomach."
Li Yueyao was afraid that Li Pei, who had just come out of the cold palace, would eat too much and get an upset stomach.
Cui Yu smiled gently after hearing this and walked forward to take the pulse of the three people in turn.
The Fourth Princess and the Sixth Prince both have their pulses checked by the imperial physician every day, so naturally there is no problem.
When it was Li Pei's turn, Cui Yu took a little longer.
Finally, he said to Li Yueyao with a smile: "Your Highness, don't worry, the Fourth Princess and the Sixth Prince are in good health.
"Your Highness, the Seventh Prince, has not been eating well in the past two months, but your Highness is in good health, so he will be back to normal in two months."
Princess Jin was obviously relieved after hearing this, and fumbled around in her bosom to pull out a yellowed sachet.
“Before I got married, I was not in good health, so my mother went to Xiyun Zen Temple to get a peace amulet for me.
I have been carrying it with me all these years, and I have always been able to turn danger into safety.
Meeting the Seventh Prince today seems to be a destiny for me, so I'll give this amulet to His Highness."
As he spoke, he opened the sachet and took out a triangular yellow talisman paper from it.
Li Yueyao asked Cuiwei to get a new sachet, put the triangular talisman paper back in place, and hang it around Li Pei's waist.
"Sheng'er, wear this carefully. It will keep you healthy."
Li Pei looked puzzled, but he also knew that he dared not refuse the gift from the elder.
What's more, this is a talisman, carrying the deepest blessings from two elders.
He hung it up respectfully and bowed to the two of them.
"Thank you, Grandma, and thank you, Aunt Princess Jin."
Princess Jin reached out her hand, trembling slightly, and touched Li Pei's head, saying:
"Good boy, okay, go play."
Li Peicai turned around and smiled as he started playing with the fourth princess and the sixth prince.
Princess Jin was obviously not in good spirits, but her eyes were reluctant to leave Li Pei.
An hour later, Li Yueyao and Xiangpin looked at each other as they saw that Princess Jin's spirit was getting worse and worse.
Xiangpin stood up and said, "Aunt, I am here today on His Majesty's orders to visit you and the Princess of Jin. It's getting late, so I have to return to the palace."
