Chapter 39 The Origin of Princess Su
Shen Xun didn't worry about this matter for too long, because Shen Yunzheng, the clever little guy, suddenly had an idea and asked Shen Xun to ask Su Song.
"Yes," Shen Xun slapped his head, "He is from the Su Palace, he must know more than others."
"Alan, go ask yourself for me."
The room where Susong was staying was full of men, so it was not appropriate for her to go in.
Unfortunately, Su Song said he knew nothing. He only knew that Princess Su was brought to the palace by Prince Su himself, and after returning to the palace, he announced that he would marry Princess Su.
"The prince had a bad relationship with the late emperor at the time, so he didn't notify the capital, nor did he submit a royal certificate for the princess."
"Perhaps you happen to bear some resemblance to the princess's old friend," Su Song said nonchalantly. "There are many similar people in this world. Don't dwell on it anymore. Get some rest tonight. We'll continue our journey tomorrow."
Susong is really in a mess. Can we still make good progress on our journey?
To the east, there's Longao Village; to the west, there's Shanshen Village; and then there's the post station...
Susong estimated that he would be late for his expected arrival time.
On the second day, the two teams parted ways. In the carriage of Prince Su's Mansion, Princess Su would occasionally lift the curtain to look back.
"Mother, what are you looking at?"
Qi Jingyin asked curiously.
Princess Su smiled and said, "Nothing. By the way, Yin'er, where are your brother and the others? Is the concubine feeling better?"
Not only were there people from Prince Su's Mansion going to the capital, but there were also Prince Su's concubines and illegitimate children.
Princess Su thought they were noisy and was impatient to go with them. In addition, the concubine complained of a headache when they were about to set off, so Princess Su asked her eldest son Qi Jingyan to lead the team and set off later.
Qi Jingyin replied, "Mother, my brother sent a message saying that the Concubine has recovered from her illness and they have already set off. Let's go slowly. I estimate that we will meet them in ten days or so."
The concubine was the cousin of Prince Su. It was said that she was in poor health and could not have children. Prince Su loved her very much.
Princess Su didn't care how Prince Su doted on her. Instead, she followed Prince Su in being nice to the concubine. For Princess Su, as long as the children didn't compete for the position with her, it didn't matter who Prince Su favored.
It is better to pamper a cousin who has no children than to pamper a concubine in the backyard who has both sons and daughters.
Princess Su nodded and said to Qi Jingyin, "Yin'er, spend more time with your little brother these days. Mother doesn't think he's very happy."
Qi Jingyin nodded obediently, "Okay, mother, I'll remember that."
In another carriage, Qi Jinghao became more and more angry. He had been wronged, and not only did his mother not help him vent his anger, but she also asked him to pretend that nothing happened?
snort!
He refused to accept the decision and when he got to the capital, he would definitely file a complaint to his father!
Just as he was thinking this, a servant came into the carriage carrying a plate of sliced pears. "Young Master, this is the fruit that the Concubine asked me to bring you. It's very fresh. Would you like to try it?"
Qi Jinghao picked one up at random and put it in his mouth. The pear was frozen, and it was very refreshing when he put it in his mouth. It was perfect to eat it in a carriage with a charcoal brazier burning on it.
"The Concubine is thoughtful."
Unlike his mother, who was usually only close to his brothers and sisters, he felt that...
"That's right," the servant said, "The Concubine always thinks of you, my lord, in everything she does. Even the Princess can't compare to her..."
Qi Jinghao gave him a sidelong glance, and the servant immediately slapped him in the face, "My words were a slip of the tongue, my words were a slip of the tongue."
"No matter how good the concubine is to me, she only wants me to be her support in the future. But my mother is different. Even if she treats me badly, I am still her son."
Not to mention, his mother treated him as well as she treated his brothers and sisters, and he even had some things that his brothers and sisters didn't have.
Qi Jinghao looked annoyed. How could he suspect that his mother didn't like him?
I guess after he drove away eight fathers and sons and ten martial arts masters, my mother felt a headache whenever she saw him, right?
Seeing that Qi Jinghao did not think according to his guidance, the servant quickly agreed and said a few nice words, and Qi Jinghao let him go.
After the snow, the weather became colder and colder. The children in the team were wrapped up like balls by their parents, the kind that would roll out if they fell.
Qi Jingcheng shivered as he rubbed against his father, Prince Hu, his teeth chattering, "Dad, why aren't you cold?"
Not to mention Prince Hu, even his wife Meng Jingya and two children were not cold. Qi Jingcheng couldn't help but wonder if he was too weak, not even as good as a woman and children?
Chen Xun looked at Qi Jingcheng, who looked frozen like a dog, and asked in confusion, "You didn't put on a heating pad?"
Qi Jingcheng was stunned. "Heating pad? What is that?"
Shen Xun looked at King Hu.
Prince Hu smiled awkwardly and took out a package from his clothes. "Well, I just want to cultivate Jingcheng's ability to withstand the cold..."
Shen Xun: “…”
Cultivate cold tolerance?
You think you are raising crops!
Shen Xun said angrily: "Hurry up and give it to Jing Cheng. If he gets frozen, you will be the one who feels bad."
After Qi Jingcheng applied the heating patch, he realized what a hard life he had lived before!
Qi Jingcheng felt so warm all over that he almost cried.
Prince Hu said regretfully, "I thought I could study this thing, oh!"
Qi Jingcheng said resentfully, "So, Dad, you're withholding the heating pad Second Aunt gave me?"
Prince Hu looked up at the sky and said, "Oh, look at the clouds in the sky, they are so white!"
Qi Jingcheng: “…”
It's a cloudy day, okay!
Qi Jingcheng thought secretly that it seemed that his father was going to experience the saying "a filial son serves his father by his patient's bedside for a long time".
At the same time, Northern Chu.
Jiang Xinming had just arrived at the imperial city and had no time to catch his breath when the trusted eunuch of the King of Northern Chu arrived.
"Eunuch Su," Jiang Xinming was flattered, "Why did you come here in person?"
Eunuch Su said respectfully, "Your Highness, the King is anxiously waiting in the palace. Seeing that Your Highness has not yet arrived, he sent this old servant to check on you."
Hearing Eunuch Su calling himself "old slave", Jiang Xinming was excited. It seemed that he was really going to be successful!
You have to know that eunuchs of Eunuch Su's status would call themselves "slave" or "ours" to anyone except the monarch.
Jiang Xinming was self-aware and knew that his status was humble and that he was just the product of the King of Northern Chu's affair with Daxia.
After knowing his identity as the prince of Northern Chu, he just wanted to live the life of an ordinary prince.
But now, he had to think more.
He got what the king wanted. He secretly looked at it on the way. With this thing, he could even compete for the position of crown prince with many brothers he had never met!
Jiang Xinming said hurriedly, "I just arrived at the Imperial City. I've been traveling so hard and dusty all the way here. I wanted to take a bath before going to see my father."
"Then please hurry up, Your Highness. The King misses you so much that he can't sleep or eat. He asks me every day, 'When will Your Highness arrive?'"
Eunuch Su's words made Jiang Xinming feel energized. After taking a quick bath, he asked Qingrong to wait for him at the inn and followed Eunuch Su into the palace.
