Yao Niang was not so stupid as to mention Princess Zhenyang's request. In her opinion, it was too early to confer a title on Wanwan. At least Gao Xuance could make the decision first. If Gao Xuance really could make the decision, it would not be a big deal to confer the title of a princess on his niece.
But now he is only the crown prince, and Princess Zhenyang actually cannot win the heart of Emperor Jianzhang as much as Princess Xing'an.
At that time, among the three children of Empress Hong, Emperor Jianzhang did not like this lively daughter, but Gao Xuance, the son. Among the daughters, even though the Lin lineage was hit, she was able to regain the favor of Emperor Jianzhang.
Therefore, she just said: "Wanwan is my only niece, I care about her more than Chengyun."
Princess Zhenyang smiled and said, "That's great. Having you take care of Wanwan is better than anything else."
"She is the prince's only legitimate niece. If I don't take care of her, who else can I take care of? Don't worry, I will definitely take care of her if I can do so here on a daily basis." Yao Niang said.
After Princess Zhenyang returned home, she summoned her husband Jing Sili and told him about the incident. She also said, "When Wanwan is crowned as a princess, our family will settle down in Jiangnan. The weather in the capital is dry and there are many rules in the palace. Wanwan is not comfortable living in the palace."
Maybe for others, entering the palace is really good, and you can even become a prince's consort. But for Princess Zhenyang, she only has this daughter, and she just wants her daughter to live a peaceful life.
If the Crown Princess's three sons try to seize the throne again, who knows what will happen to her daughter?
Jing Sili was obviously a man with ambitions. He said, "Wanwan grew up under the lap of the Empress. If we complain everywhere, how will Wanwan feel when she returns to the palace?"
After all, the palace is not a place where you can come in and go out as you please.
The Emperor and Empress are not only your parents, but also people you need to please, just like your superiors.
The prince did a great job in this regard. He always flattered the emperor and empress and ate with them. Gao Ji was just a young child, and it must have been more difficult for him to be raised in front of Yu. However, the prince and the princess never suggested that the child be sent home.
Princess Zhenyang didn't care: "It's not like we won't come back in the future. When Wanwan is older, it's not impossible for her to accompany my mother, right?"
The prince consort has always been a subject to the king in front of the princess. Since Princess Zhenyang said so, he had no choice but to obey.
Princess Zhenyang just kept waiting, but she didn't expect that instead of seeing her daughter being named a princess, she received news of the emperor's decree to name her nephew as the grandson of the emperor.
Emperor Jianzhang patted Chengyun on the shoulder and said to Gao Xuance: "Many children died in infancy in the palace. Now he has grown up. I see that he is smart and intelligent, and has noble character. He is indeed no less intelligent than you were when you were a child."
Even though the emperor was happy to see that there was a successor, he was also worried that his grandson would seize the throne again in the future.
Therefore, he first decided on his status. Besides, he really liked this eldest grandson. Although he was not as sweet-talking as his father, Emperor Jianzhang could not help but feel that this child was smart and courageous, and no one else could compare to him.
Gao Xuance felt calm. No matter what, if he was gone one day, his son would be able to succeed him. He was really happy.
So, this person also said to Yao Niang: "If I die on the battlefield, you and your son will be safe."
Yao Niang didn't expect that he was still worried about these things. "How could you die? Even if you want to die, I will pull you back from King Yanluo."
As he spoke, he hugged Gao Xuance and couldn't help but admire in his heart, saying that this man had a very thin waist.
Gao Xuance quickly jumped away: "Sister, you are too heavy now, you can't do that. Although I want to, but we can't get that close."
Yao Niang threw a pillow at him and said in annoyance, "Nonsense, you are imagining nonsense just because someone hugged you."
"I don't know you yet." Gao Xuance rarely spoke to Yao Niang.
Normally, under the "tyranny" of his wife, he didn't dare to tell the truth, but now he said this.
"Yes, Chengyun is the grandson, and I am most worried about you. What if you go to practice Taoism and leave us behind? Look at you, you wear Taoist robes all the time and think about practicing Taoism every day." Yao Niang felt that he loved practicing Taoism too much.
Gao Xuance said with a smile: "When I become an immortal, I will take you all to become gods."
Yao Niang didn't believe this: "When a person dies, it's like a light going out. Even if I was reborn once, I still don't believe this. We should just live well in the present and not talk about the future."
She was so frank, probably because she was afraid.
Gao Xuance never thought how good he was. Yao Niang was probably obsessed with him because of his status, body and face. Now that she gradually began to say that she was reluctant to let him go, he felt happy for some reason.
"Don't worry, I'm definitely not the kind of person who would kill the person I love if I really became an immortal. If you are happy to be my husband and wife in this world, I am willing to accompany you in every reincarnation." Gao Xuance looked at her firmly.
Even though they have been married for so many years, Yao Niang blushed, "No wonder the emperor and empress like you, you are really good at talking."
"What do you mean by being able to speak? It comes completely from the heart." Gao Xuance said unhappily.
In fact, he is just a man who is not yet thirty years old. Yao Niang looked at him and argued with him.
But the couple is also very happy, after all, their son is a great grandson.
When the news of Feng Taisun came out, the Luo family was the happiest. Why? If the prince became the emperor and he took many concubines, then the future prince might not be Yao Niang's son. But if Feng Chengyun became the Taisun, that is to say, as long as he did not make any mistakes, he would definitely be the heir to the country.
Mrs. Yu couldn't help crying with joy. After so many years, she finally made it through.
It was hard for her to imagine that her daughter was one step closer to becoming the queen. Wang was originally talking to Jinghao in the room, and after hearing this, both of them couldn't help but smile.
Wang's round face said to Jinghao without restraint: "Now you can rest assured about your sister."
Jinghao gave an embarrassed smile: "I have already given up on her."
He recalled the days when his elder sister took him out to play and made little grasshoppers and butterflies for him when he was little, and also when he had a difficult cough and it was his elder sister who gave him a folk remedy. The adults had forgotten these things, but he still remembered them silently.
"You are still lying to me." Wang teased her, "You are always thinking about your sister. To be honest, I envy your deep sibling love. Unlike me, my sisters have grown up and I am still young. I can't remember many things."
Speaking of this, the young couple sighed again.
Jinghao suddenly remembered something: "You careless guy, my nephew has been named the Grandson, and they have all gone to Wenhua Hall to congratulate my mother, and you are still here talking nonsense."
Wang slapped his head and said, "I have to hurry over."
After the Luo family gathered together happily, they all put on their makeup and went to the palace to celebrate. Yao Niang actually didn't see her family very often. Once a month was considered very frequent, and this was because she was pregnant.
It was rare that Yao Niang also laughed happily: "Now the grandson is with the prince and is with the emperor, but we can't see him now."
This was the only time she was proud. Yu knew her daughter well. Normally, no matter who complimented her, she was indifferent. It really lived up to what others said about Wei Zifu: "Giving birth to a boy means no joy, but giving birth to a girl means no worries."
Even Yu felt that her daughter did not live like her own daughter at all. After all, she had once taken the maid to punish bad people like Jiang Mu at a young age.
"The Grandson is smart and clever, no wonder the Emperor loves him the most."
"What's the big deal? Taisun is the eldest son of the Crown Prince and the eldest grandson of the Emperor..."
Everyone was flattering Yao Niang. Yao Niang thought about her fate of being a subordinate to others in her previous life, and she finally turned things around in this life.
In fact, the emperor had already asked the Ministry of Rites to start making clothes for Cheng Yun, and before Yao Niang gave birth, Cheng Yun's enthronement ceremony was finally successful.
"My son pays respects to his mother."
Yao Niang stepped forward and helped him up. Although the child was young, he looked completely different from Taisun in terms of clothing. The mother and son looked at each other and smiled.
…
Princess Zhenyang had to go to the palace to celebrate, and saw Yao Niang was very happy, but she didn't explain anything about Wanwan.
Princess Lian Xing'an hugged her daughter and flattered Yao Niang: "The Crown Princess has worked hard to raise the Grandson. Although it is a natural result now, it is also the Crown Princess's hard work that counts."
"I don't deserve it. Everything is due to the emperor's guidance."
"That's because the Crown Princess knows how to teach children, so the Emperor raised him in his lap." Princess Xing'an had been in a slump for many years since her mother and brother fell from power. Now that she has regained the Emperor's favor, she often visits the palace.
Yao Niang received a lot of flattery. She often presented winter robes and summer clothes to the Eastern Palace.
She didn't ask Donggong to be too nice to her, that was impossible, but it would be good enough if he wasn't mean to her.
Yao Niang was used to Princess Xing'an. She just smiled when she heard what she said, thinking that she was a person who understood the current affairs.
The people in the palace are very good at reading people's expressions. Ever since Cheng Yun was given the title of Grand Sun, Yao Niang's status has been much higher. At least it is more respectable than before when she was with Queen Hong.
Princess Zhenyang could only persuade her daughter to study hard in the palace in private. She had no way to bring her daughter back now. Even if she wanted to go back to Jiangnan, Empress Hong said, "Your nephew has just been named the Grand Grandson. The emperor is not in good health. You have to stay and be ready to take care of him at any time."
This was said in a very low voice. After all, it was disrespectful for the empress to say that the emperor was not in good health.
Princess Zhenyang was helpless and could only tell Huang Rushuang: "You are Wanwan's study partner. You must take good care of Wanwan. Thank you very much."
"Yes, please rest assured, Princess." Huang Rushuang breathed a sigh of relief. She almost thought that since Jing Wan was leaving the palace, she would not be able to stay.
At this time Princess Zhenyang couldn't help but think that she finally understood what her mother meant when she said that the Crown Princess was not her study partner, nor was she just her sister-in-law, because she could just ignore her words.
Although she is a princess and her words should carry great weight, she has no way to influence Gao Xuance because of her relationship with him, which is cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
Now, she finally understood.
Not only did she understand, but even Xu Qingrong and Mu Wantong who were far away in the fiefdom were despairing.
Although Xu Qingrong acted indifferent and seemed to have given up completely when she was far away from the capital, she knew that Gao Xuance was often on the battlefield, so she burned incense and prayed to Buddha every day, praying for Gao Xuance to die, so that the King of Zhou could still crown him emperor. But now that Taisun was crowned emperor, it was clear that even if Gao Xuance died, Gao Ji could directly succeed to the throne.
This almost shattered her dream of becoming queen.
Her hopes were completely shattered, so even though the fertility medicine she desperately sought made her pregnant, she didn't seem very happy.
No matter how hard his son struggled, he was just a vassal king and would never be able to go to the capital in his lifetime.
Madam Li, however, was facing a powerful enemy. Soon her eldest son would be named the crown prince when he turned ten years old. At this time, Xu Qingrong was pregnant, and her long-cherished hope was dashed.
Not to mention what was going on in Prince Zhou's inner chamber, Mu Wantong was jealous to begin with. After Madam Jia gave birth to a son and was made a concubine, her relationship with the Fourth Prince became increasingly worse, and they often quarreled after just a few words.
In fact, she had similar hopes to Xu Qingrong. She was more powerful than Xu Qingrong, and the King of Zhennan was a king of a different surname and had military power.
Now that she heard that the Grandson had been crowned, Mu Wantong no longer had any hope. She even began to complain to Zhenniang: "My fourth brother is only a prince. My son can only be a general who assists the country, not even a king..."
"You were very calm before and didn't mention these things anymore. You wanted to build a good relationship with the Fourth Prince. Why do you bring up this matter again?" Madam Zhen felt that Mu Wantong was asking for too much.
She wants someone who is honest and loyal, and who listens to her wholeheartedly, but she also hopes that person is ambitious and can emulate Li Shimin and stage the Xuanwu Gate Incident.
But the Fourth Prince is a timid and calm person. He just doesn't want to worry about anything.
Mu Wantong stood up and said blankly, "So what? He often goes to Jia's place now. He and I can never go back to the way we were before. He hates me for deliberately harming Concubine Yan, and I blame him for not making progress. That year, he was a hero who saved the beauty. I thought he was the kindest person in the world, and I was willing to assist him, but he ultimately let me down. On the contrary, Gao Xuance, the snobbish and cold-blooded man whom I looked down upon, has already secured his position."
What made Mu Wantong even more sad was that she still had to put on a smiling face and prepare gifts for Taisun in Beijing.
Because she is no longer the Mu Wantong who can show disdain whenever she wants.
