Gu Sangyu looked at the boxes of precious supplements in front of her, unsure of the emperor's intentions. Why would he send these supplements over for no reason?
Before, the other party would only send here new tributes from outside the palace, in order to show that he was not a heartless emperor, and also to stabilize the Gu family.
Apart from that, nothing else is sent here specially, and everything they need every month is delivered by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"Did Your Majesty say anything else?" Gu Sangyu asked.
The young eunuch was under Eunuch Wang. He had been warned and knew what to say and what not to say. When he heard Gu Sangyu ask, he just shook his head and said no.
Eunuch Wang couldn't figure out the emperor's true intentions. Didn't he dislike Fengluan Palace before? He didn't even go to see the fifth prince when he was born. What was going on now?
He chose to wait and see for the time being, and his eunuch naturally didn't dare to say anything more.
After the young eunuch left, Xiaowan was a little curious, "Your Majesty, what does His Majesty mean? Why did he send so many things for no reason, and they were all supplements? Could it be that he wants to..." repair the relationship with you.
Xiaowan has been with Gu Sangyu since she got married. She and the emperor are like sisters. She can see clearly how good the emperor was to Gu Sangyu in the past, and how indifferent he is now.
Gu Sangyu shook her head. She was no longer so naive. "No matter what he thinks, we just need to live our own lives."
As for those supplements, she asked her most trusted imperial physician to test them for her before she dared to use them.
It wasn't that she was too cautious, but the palace was full of intrigue and deception. She knew exactly what the emperor was thinking about her family. Although she believed that the emperor would not dare to do anything to her, after all, if something happened to her in the palace, her father would definitely not let it go.
After all, the border is in the hands of her eldest brother.
But we must also guard against those who sow discord and try to kill others with a borrowed knife. There are so many people who want to sit on the throne of queen.
In just two days, An Jingzhi was already full of energy and playing around.
In fact, he was almost recovered that night, but Gu Sangyu was worried and wanted to let him rest for a while longer, so she kept him for another day. Seeing that his little face became rosy, his eyes became bright and shining, and he couldn't stay idle in bed, she let him go.
After playing outside and coming back to eat, sweating profusely, Gu Sangyu asked at the table, "Have you finished practicing your calligraphy today? In a few days, you will go to the Imperial College. By then, you won't even be able to write a single word, but you will be beaten by the teacher. Your mother won't be able to protect you there."
An Jingzhi was enjoying his meal when Gu Sangyu's words suddenly struck him like a bolt from the blue. He was only three years old! Was he already going to school?!
He even found it difficult to practice calligraphy. A three-year-old's hand bones are so soft that even holding a brush is a bit difficult for him. And now he has to go to school!?
His eyes suddenly widened, and he pretended to be innocent, "Mother, I want to accompany you, I don't want to go to the Imperial College."
Gu Sangyu had long been immune to this kind of behavior. "Don't give me that. You're accompanying me? You're nowhere to be seen except at mealtimes. Mother doesn't want you to accompany her. Just go and study for me."
No matter how An Jingzhi begged, Gu Sangyu was determined to let him study at the Imperial College.
Although she doted on An Jingzhi, she didn't spoil him blindly. How could he not study?
In the end, An Jingzhi had no choice but to accept this decision.
All the princes and princesses in the palace had to study at the Imperial Academy, where the sons of some important court officials also studied together.
Thinking that he would have to go to school in three days, An Jingzhi took the time to play after dinner.
He ran to his room with his short legs, "Xiao Xizi, come on, let's go and see if I can make my kite today."
The kite is in the shape of a panda and is very cute.
After An Jingzhi drew it according to Yuanyuan's appearance, he directed Xiao Xizi and others to help make it.
Xiao Xizi hurriedly followed behind An Jingzhi to prevent him from falling.
Although Fengluan Palace is large, there are too many trees and the space is not wide enough.
The widest one is of course the Imperial Garden, and An Jingzhi took a group of people there to fly kites.
Empress Xian was sitting in a pavilion, watching the laughter of children in the distance. She said to the palace maid beside her, "Which palace are these children from? What are they playing? Go and find out."
As children of the emperor, they were taught from childhood to abide by the rules, to behave in a royal manner, and not to lose face.
Seeing that there was a child in the palace who dared to laugh and play like this, especially in the imperial garden where the emperor often frequented, Empress Xian couldn't help but feel curious.
The palace maid beside Empress Xian walked over to Xiao Xizi and the others, asked a few questions, and then came back.
"Your Majesty, that's the Fifth Prince from Fengluan Palace. They're flying kites."
Concubine Xian raised her eyebrows slightly, twisting a piece of cake with her slender jade-white fingers, "The Fifth Prince of Phoenix Palace?"
After eating the cake, she continued, "This kite is really quite interesting. It looks like it's made of paper, right? How can it fly so high?"
"Your Majesty, this was made by the Fifth Prince himself. It has a picture of an iron-eating beast on it."
Empress Xian looked from afar at An Jingzhi, who was carefree directing the eunuch to fly a kite in the imperial garden, and then ran happily after catching the kite in her hands.
"Yes, they don't need the emperor's favor."
The other princes follow the rules of the palace very well and act very serious at a young age. Isn't it just to please the emperor?
At such a young age, they have been indoctrinated with a bunch of messy ideas, and have lost the innocence of children.
It's not as comforting as the Fifth Prince in front of him.
Tired of running, An Jingzhi handed the kite to the palace maid, walked to the nearest pavilion, and found that there was already someone inside.
"Who are you?" he asked curiously.
There was no information about this person in the original owner's memory.
His status is enough to allow him to do whatever he wants in the palace as long as he has no desires or demands.
The maidservant beside Concubine Xian was about to speak when she was stopped by Concubine Xian. She smiled at An Jingzhi and said, "You should call me Concubine Xian."
"Hello, Empress Xian."
It was the first time Empress Xian had heard such a greeting. She was stunned for a moment but quickly came to her senses. "Do you want to come over for some pastries? Come on, I have some hibiscus soup to cool you down."
An Jingzhi was about to step forward when Xiao Xizi said from behind, "Your Highness..."
He was about to say something when he was stopped by An Jingzhi's eyes.
He knew that Xiao Xizi wanted him to not eat the things given by other concubines casually, but with so many people watching in broad daylight, Concubine Xian would not dare to do anything if she really had any thoughts.
An Jingzhi could tell that this person had no ill will towards him.
He looked happy, and walked to the pavilion in two or three steps with his calves, "Thank you, Her Majesty."
Then he picked up the pastries on the table and started eating.
