Chapter 392 Life is Better
When Chen Qing went to see Concubine De, she brought some gifts with her. This was actually a habit. Concubine De was generous and often gave her a lot of gifts. Chen Qing accepted them at first, and later began to reply. She would reply with whatever she liked at the moment. Looking through all the harems, there were very few who gave gifts as much as they did.
After all, if you really mean it, some of the things you give away can really become deadly knives, but Chen Qing and Defei have been interacting with each other tacitly for many years.
When Shen Qing went there, he happened to see the Third Prince paying respects to Concubine De. Just when he was about to think about it, he saw it now. The Third Prince saluted to Shen Qing: "Greetings to Concubine Xian."
Shen Qing asked casually: "Did you finish school so early today?"
Although the Third Prince and Shen Qing were not as close as Concubine De, they were still close. After all, they had watched each other grow up together. "Yes, the Imperial Kitchen sent some oranges today. I thought that Mother would like them, so I brought some over."
In fact, there is nothing missing from Concubine De, he just misses her.
The third prince still had homework to do, so he just said a few words and then left.
Until he left, Shen Qing said: "From now on, I dare not eat the Queen's food in the Queen's Palace. If this is sent by the Third Prince and I eat it, it will be a betrayal of the Third Prince's kindness to the Queen."
"You have become more and more outrageous over the years." Defei's tone did not mean that she minded. She also stuffed an orange into Shen Qing's hand and said, "Eating something can help to stop the blockage."
Shen Qing could still look at the orange and say exaggeratedly: "This orange must be extremely sweet."
De Fei was stunned and laughed: "You, you."
The two chatted and laughed for a while and then went into the inner room.
Chen Qing and De Fei went into the inner room together to look at the spring shirt that De Fei had half-sewn. Judging from the color of the material, it was made for the third prince: "After so many years, my craftsmanship is really not good enough."
"You just don't want to learn, otherwise how could you not learn it?" How could Concubine De not know that Shen Qing was smart?
Shen Qing asked her to praise: "Oh, I'm going to be shy."
Seeing her amused expression, Concubine De smiled as well: "I was thinking of you coming over too. After all, since Cheng Yun is not at Zhaohua Palace, you have some free time. It's just the right time for you to come. I just got some donkey-hide gelatin and was planning to send it to you. Now that you're here, I don't need to ask anyone to send it. I can just bring it over together."
This is basically the daily routine of Shen Qing and De Fei. The two of them gathered together to talk. They talked about other things and finally talked about the children: "Did you find it boring when the third prince entered school? Xiaoliu is gone, and I can't even remember how I got through without him."
Concubine De laughed when she heard this: "Now you sound a bit motherly in your words." She also comforted her: "Children will grow up eventually. I was reluctant to let him go at first, but now that he is growing up well, I am only happy in my heart. You must be the same as me in the future."
"I hope he doesn't get into any trouble. Now that I think about it, I've spoiled him too much."
Concubine De said, "I don't believe that the temper of the child you taught could be that bad."
"Is your Majesty saying openly that I have a good temper, or is she hinting that the Third Prince was well-educated by your Majesty?"
De Fei shook her head when she heard this: "You are so talkative again."
But looking at Shen Qing's appearance, there was a smile in his eyes.
After chatting and laughing for a while, the two of them went out for a walk. After all, they were walking together.
After walking around for a while, the two separated. Shen Qing returned to Zhaohua Palace. Chunhua helped her untie the cloak outside. She had also watched Shen Qing interact with Concubine De over the years. To be honest, "Your Majesty and Concubine De have had a really good relationship over the years."
However, Chunhua suddenly thought of something while speaking and sighed.
Chen Qing looked at Chunhua and knew what she was thinking without asking. Didn't she just talk about the prince's problem? Chen Qing didn't think anything of it. Sometimes she wasn't afraid of losing in an open contest. A mother worries about her mother, but she still has to look after her child. If the third prince was outstanding, Chen Qing wouldn't play any dirty tricks to get Xiao Liu to the top. But if someone wanted to play any dirty tricks, whether it was against her or Xiao Liu, she would pay it back a hundredfold.
I was just thinking about it now. I saw the Third Prince. "School is over early today. I wonder if Xiaoliu will come back."
Chunhua's thoughts turned to Xiaoliu. She was also thinking about him. How could she not care about this child who she had taken care of? This child was very lovable. "Should I go and ask about it?"
"No, don't go. I want to see if he still cares about it."
Chunhua didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Madam." The Sixth Prince is still a child. If you miss him, you can just call him back. Why are you still looking at the Sixth Prince? But at the same time, she was also curious whether the Sixth Prince would come back today, and she told the kitchen to prepare the Sixth Prince's favorite food in advance, in case he was absent.
And Xiao Liu lived up to everyone's expectations. He came here happily after finishing his homework. It's funny to say that when Xiao Liu came in, someone informed him. You know, when Xuanyuan Ling came, there were few people notifying him. But now when Xiao Liu came back, there was a servant to inform him.
As soon as Shen Qing heard it, she knew that the report from outside must be Wang Lu's letter. It was obvious that he was trying to coax her and make her happy first. Then she looked over and saw Xiao Liu rushing towards her. Shen Qing hugged him tightly and smiled: "Our Xiao Liu is so impressive."
"Mother." Xiao Liu didn't like to call her mother when she was acting coquettish, but this call made Shen Qing's heart melt.
I can still hug and kiss you for two days: "Oh, I missed you so much."
Xuanyuan Ling also heard that school was over early today, so he asked people to keep an eye on Xiaoliu. He had discovered that Xiaoliu loved to act like a spoiled child to Shen Qing, and he was afraid that the child would be soft-tempered. Unexpectedly, after watching for a few days, he found that the child was not soft-tempered. After leaving the Zhaohua Palace, he was like a little adult, wasn't he? He was also very opinionated.
It should be said that Xuanyuan Ling is quite familiar with this pattern. Isn't he the same?
When in Zhaohua Palace, he didn't think anything outrageous was a big deal, but once he left the palace, the rules still had to apply. This child was exactly like him in this respect.
Xuanyuan Ling felt so relaxed while staring at them. Now, seeing the intimacy between the mother and son, he curled the corners of his mouth. He loved watching such scenes.
Later, Zhao Hai looked at Xuanyuan Ling and thought to himself, the emperor has been privately looking at the virtuous concubine with a cheap smile for so many years, and he hasn't changed at all.
Xuanyuan Ling didn't watch for a while, of course, but at this time he still had to join in. Now it was Zhao Hai's turn to look at the three of them and curl his lips. It was no wonder that the emperor loved to watch. It was so comfortable to see such a scene in the palace. When the emperor was a child, there was no such scene? Zhao Hai thought to himself, "Pah, pah, pah, why are you thinking about those things for no reason? Isn't it better to have a good life now?"
