Chapter 296 The Prodigal Prince 12



"Fifth Prince, do you know that person?" Jiang Wenbo asked hesitantly.

"I don't know him." Anyway, the original body shouldn't know him, so he doesn't know him either.

Jiang Wenbo did not ask any more questions. He had barely eaten a bite in front of the emperor. Although he was still a little hungry, he did not stay any longer. After saying goodbye to An Jingzhi and returning home, he told his father what he had said today.

After hearing this, Lord Jiang frowned for a long time. He still didn't understand what the emperor wanted to do.

"Just get along with each other as before. Since His Majesty doesn't want the Fifth Prince to know, you don't have to tell him."

Lord Jiang was actually very uneasy when he found out that his son was hanging out with the fifth prince, An Jingzhi. As a court official, it was everyone's job to guess the emperor's intentions.

But his son was just as stubborn as he was. He wouldn't move when led, and would even move backwards when hit.

He had no choice but to give up, and since they were both still young, he didn't care anymore.

The relationship between the two of them today has been made clear to His Majesty. If the Emperor sends someone to reprimand him, he will know what the Emperor's attitude is. If the Emperor does not send anyone, it means tacit approval.

"Fifth Prince!" Old Master Gao called for a long time, but An Jingzhi was still sleeping unconscious.

It really wasn't that he was deliberately provoking him. He was just too sleepy, as if he had been drugged, and he couldn't open his eyes at all.

After calling for a long time, there was still no response from the other party, so Mr. Gao finally gave up. This was simply a naughty child!

His Majesty did not give them any special instructions. At the beginning, Lord Gao still thought that the other party was a child and needed to be educated well, but over the past month, he was so angry with the other party that his blood boiled several times.

After being angry for a while, I finally got used to it.

Jiang Wenbo, who was standing aside, felt a little envious as he saw the other person sleeping soundly without anyone daring to bother him.

But Lord Gao will not be as polite to him as he is to the Fifth Prince. If he dares to sleep, he will definitely not be able to escape from a few slaps on the face.

An Jingzhi dared to hide, but he didn't.

Now the entire court and the palace knew that the fifth prince was an uneducated and unlearned little playboy.

Although Gu Sangyu came from a family of generals, he was also proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Unexpectedly, the son she gave birth to completely inherited the tradition of the Gu family and did not like to study.

After persisting for a month, she had no choice but to give up, thinking that there might be a chance to save her son after he grew up.

As for now, she really doesn't want to care about it.

I scolded him, punished him, and he listened carefully.

But in the end the result was the same.

Gu Sangyu could only give up in despair.

Xiao Wan advised, "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about the young prince. He's just young and likes to play. Maybe he'll be better when he grows up."

Gu Sangyu waved her hand. "You don't need to persuade me anymore. If Jingzhi doesn't like to study, then he doesn't like to study. After all, as a member of the royal family, he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life. As long as he doesn't learn bad things and do evil, that's all that matters."

Gu Sangyu's bottom line for her son is already very low.

An Jingzhi ran in from outside, "Mother!"

"What's wrong?" Gu Sangyu looked lazy.

"This is for you." An Jingzhi took out a bouquet of flowers from behind his back. He picked them in the imperial garden and found some paper to draw on them before wrapping them up.

It looks quite decent.

Gu Sangyu was a little confused. She took the bouquet blankly and asked, "What is this?"

An Jingzhi smiled and said, "Today is your birthday. This is my gift to you. I hope you will always be as beautiful as a flower."

Finally he clapped his hands again, and Xiao Xizi walked in carrying a box.

"This is the birthday cake I asked someone to make for you."

Gu Sangyu looked at the novel and exquisite pastries that she had never seen before, and then smelled the flowers in her hand.

She held her son's face in her hands, her autumn-water eyes reflecting the emotion, "Thank you, Jingzhi."

She was talking about mother, not mother.

The word "mother" always feels less intimate than "mother", but in the palace, one has to abide by the rules in every word and action, and she has no choice but to do so. Now that she has received a gift from her son, she is so moved that she can't hold back.

An Jingzhi used his tender little hands to wipe away the tears from her face. "Happy birthday, Mom! Come, let's make a wish and eat cake together."

"good!"

This was an unprecedented experience. Although he knew that the wish could not be taken seriously, Gu Sangyu still did it seriously.

She made a wish that her son could live a safe and happy life.

The mother and son couldn't finish the sweet and soft cake, so they shared the rest with the palace servants.

Gu Sangyu's birthday was not a grand celebration and no one was invited.

In addition to the gifts sent to the palace by the Gu family and their son, there were also gifts sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs at the request of the emperor.

When Gu Sangyu was the prince's consort, the emperor would give her some carefully prepared gifts every year. After she became emperor, all the gifts were sent by the Imperial Household Department.

The Imperial Household Department would remember the birthdays of all the empresses and send a gift on their birthdays.

"What did that little monkey do today?" Although the emperor did not meet An Jingzhi again, he often paid attention to his every move.

He was looking forward to the little monkey's reaction when he saw his face on the day of the test.

Eunuch Wang, who was serving nearby, immediately replied after hearing what was said, "Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince is celebrating the Imperial Concubine's birthday today. He went to the Imperial Garden this morning to pick flowers for a bouquet and then had a cake made in the Imperial Kitchen. He should be eating it by now."

The emperor was a little surprised, "Is today your concubine's birthday?"

Eunuch Wang replied yes.

"Did the housekeeping service deliver anything?"

"Your Majesty, it has been delivered."

As the emperor thought about it, he became a little unhappy. "It's the Concubine's birthday. This little naughty monkey is so thoughtful and knows how to make careful preparations. But why didn't he show any sign of appreciation for my birthday?"

When Eunuch Wang heard this, he was a little bit incredulous. Is His Majesty jealous?

He has always been by the emperor's side, witnessing his growth from his immaturity in the beginning to his mature emperor today. In recent years, he has rarely seen him express his emotions.

So it seems that Your Majesty really likes the Fifth Prince very much.

"Your Majesty, when you celebrated your birthday at the beginning of the year, the Fifth Prince was still very young and not very sensible."

In fact, Eunuch Wang was thinking in his heart that the Fifth Prince and the Imperial Concubine had been together day and night and were raised by each other, and His Majesty had never seen him even once. If it were not for that accidental occasion, he would not even have recognized that it was the Fifth Prince, so how could the Fifth Prince have any feelings for His Majesty?

However, he believed that the eunuchs around His Majesty would definitely not say such words, so he could only try his best to comfort the other party.

This sentence comforted the emperor a little.

He also realized that he had lost his composure just now and ended the topic, but he was still thinking in his heart, what will this little monkey give him on his birthday?

The next day there was one more thing on his dining table.
