Chapter 263 The Thoughts of Everyone in Yuanjing
Zhao Lingmeng and the others hadn't returned to Yuanjing yet, unaware of the emperor's reward. Everyone in Yuanjing already knew. Everyone was shocked and secretly wondered if they could just go and raise a grandson of the emperor.
Especially the second prince. He did not agree to send his son to Zhao Lingmeng at that time. Later, when he saw that the boy from his eldest brother's family was treated preferentially in front of his father, he regretted it a long time ago.
At this time, Fu Ning was rewarded for raising his eldest brother's son. He was acting like a good show and was acting weird. He even stopped the eldest prince outside the palace and said, "My eldest brother, you gave birth to this son in vain. If he can earn rewards for others, why can't he earn rewards for you?"
The eldest prince is not a fool. Funing is his son's master, so he is naturally on his side. Although he is a little confused about this matter, he will not let his second brother laugh at him in public.
"Then the second brother's child was born in vain, after all!" After the eldest prince said this heart-wrenching words, he walked away leisurely.
But the eldest prince went straight to the main concubine's courtyard as soon as he returned home. The first thing he said when he arrived at the main courtyard was, "Chen'er, are you back home yet?"
"No! Didn't Chen'er say that yesterday? He went to the farm with Funing to play today! How could he come back so soon?" The eldest prince's wife shook her head after saying this, with an expression that asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"You have heard the news that Fu Ning enjoys the treatment of a prince! He can also have 1,000 palace soldiers, which is a treatment that even princes don't have. Just teach my son Yang Jingchen and he will have it!" To be honest, Yang Jingchen was a little self-satisfied at this moment.
"You should have some self-awareness! Although Chen'er calls you father, you are still just a bald prince." The eldest prince's wife was also a little speechless and a little disgusted by the eldest prince's self-righteousness. She definitely did not mean to vent her anger on him because of the things happening in the backyard.
"You are such a boring person. Can't you make this prince happy?" Although the eldest prince said this, he was drinking his tea by himself and had no intention of leaving in anger.
The eldest prince's wife glanced at him and saw that the eldest prince looked like he was waiting for his son to come back. She continued to look at the account book. It was almost the middle of the year, and she had to check various accounts. She was busy!
The eldest prince finished a pot of tea by himself, and seeing that the eldest prince's wife was still busy, he said, "You are so busy, why don't you ask those people in the backyard to help you? Otherwise, what's the point of keeping them?"
If an ordinary person heard the eldest prince say this, they would probably be furious. But the eldest prince's wife had become accustomed to this man's insensitivity in certain matters over the years.
She simply replied, "If the eldest prince wants everyone in the backyard to know your wealth, I don't mind."
When the eldest prince heard the queen say this, he knew he had done something stupid again and could only touch his nose in disappointment.
"Tomorrow, you arrange for someone to send a gift to the Princess's Mansion. Apart from anything else, she has indeed educated Chen'er well, no worse than Chen'er. Give her a generous gift."
What Yang Jingchen didn't say was that if the princess hadn't been so reluctant to accept them, he would have wanted to send his illegitimate sons over as well. The princess was so kind to Chen'er that even he, a prince, was envious. But he knew that if he dared to speak out, not only would the princess be in trouble, but even the wife would be upset.
The eldest prince's wife now has two outstanding sons, and she is very confident! The eldest prince doesn't dare to provoke her easily.
The eldest prince's wife interrupted the eldest prince who was lost in thought and said, "It has all been delivered today!"
The eldest prince nodded when he heard this. It turned out that the eldest prince's wife was very reliable in doing things.
Not to mention what the eldest prince was thinking, the most angry ones were the third prince and Zhao Shuiyun. They were the male and female protagonists in the original book. For some reason, they always felt that Zhao Lingmeng was blocking their way and wanted to take a bite at any time.
So, as soon as the emperor returned to the palace, the third prince, Yang Jingluo, carried Zhao Shuiyun's child to see him. The emperor, having witnessed the successful test firing and the power of the heavy crossbow, was in a good mood today. He ordered someone to summon the third prince.
"Your son greets the emperor!" The third prince Yang Jingluo also smiled and held his only son Yang Chengfu in his arms, saluting.
When the emperor gave him the name Yang Chengfu, it didn't mean he was blessed, but rather that Zhao Shuiyun and her son should cherish their blessings. Although his foolish son was in Zhao Shuiyun's hands, as the emperor, if he wanted to deal with someone, he would have plenty of ways to do it.
But Zhao Shuiyun is Changyou's daughter after all, and he has already missed the opportunity with Funing, so he is willing to be more tolerant of Zhao Shuiyun.
If Zhao Lingmeng knew what the emperor was thinking, she would probably just feel unlucky. It turns out that the suffering of the previous master is a blessing for others.
"Get up! Why are you rushing to see me? What's going on?" The emperor used to like his son very much, but since he found out that he was being controlled by a woman, he no longer liked him that much. Moreover, he still made stupid mistakes from time to time.
The Third Prince didn't get straight to the point at the beginning, but always tried to test his father's attitude, "Your Highness and I miss you."
The emperor looked at the well-behaved Yang Chengfu in his third son's arms. He didn't say whether he believed it or not, "Oh? Fu'er, come here, Grandpa, give me a hug!"
The three-year-old Yang Chengfu was quite clever and immediately threw himself into the emperor's arms. The emperor, in a rare moment of praise, said, "This boy is quite clever."
"Hey, thank you for the compliment, Father." The Third Prince thanked him and sat down on the chair next to him. Eunuch Zhuo was also very perceptive and immediately ordered someone to serve tea.
"Don't be so proud, just tell me what you want from me." The emperor didn't believe that his son just came to see him.
The Third Prince pretended to be worried at first, "Father, Fu'er is my eldest son, and I don't know how to teach him. I want him to learn from Princess Funing, mainly because I think Princess Funing is good at teaching children."
The emperor looked at the third prince in shock again, "Have you forgotten that you and your darling have offended Funing?" The emperor thought to himself, this is crazy, who would teach the child of their enemy.
"Father, no matter what, you are the emperor and Fu Ning is the minister. If you issue an imperial decree, does Fu Ning dare to disobey? Besides, my son and she are relatives. Fu'er also has the blood of the Marquis of Wu'an flowing in his veins."
Perhaps because of his noble birth, the Third Prince never considered the feelings of others. He also always had the feeling that as long as he spoke, everyone would feel honored.
The emperor stared at his third son as if he were a madman. "Do you know why your son is named Yang Chengfu? It means 'Fu', which means 'cherishing blessings'."
