Chapter 304 Wanwan like you
Mid-November.
Su Zhenzhen suddenly heard a rumor.
Prince Rong Jinyan of Chu presented a beauty who looked like Empress Yuanyi to His Majesty. His Majesty was very pleased and immediately named her Concubine Jia.
Her pupils were shaking. What the hell?
Is my father so fashionable?
She looks just like you, right?
Is she living in some fan fiction?
Of course, all of the above is a joke.
At this moment, she was holding little Tangyuan and let him walk to Rong Jinchen, who was standing aside with his lips pursed and silent.
Little Tangyuan was very smart. He walked steadily, just three feet (almost one meter), and sat directly on Rong Jinchen's feet. Then he hugged his thighs with his two little arms, "Daddy, hug me~" He looked at him with a pair of peach blossom eyes blinking.
Rong Jinchen was stunned for a moment, then immediately picked him up and placed him on his lap. Little Tangyuan said in a baby voice, "Daddy, don't be sad. Chaochao and Mommy are here." Indeed, at one year and two months old, little Tangyuan could already speak five or six words, his chatterbox nature immediately unleashed. Little Tangyuan stepped on Rong Jinchen's thigh again, wrapped her tiny hands around his neck, and kissed the handsome man's face. "Chaochao, kiss, happy." She kissed him again, then smiled like a little bear that had stolen some honey.
Su Zhenzhen was lying on the rosewood chaise longue, with her hair tied up in a single bun and a white jade crabapple flower hairpin in her hair. This was the birthday gift Rong Jinchen had given her this year.
He also embroidered sachets of an iron-eating beast for the three of them, but the sachet for little Tangyuan was kept by Su Zhenzhen.
Seeing that Rong Jinchen was in a better mood, she straightened up and supported her chin with her hand.
"Husband, don't be sad, your mother doesn't care about this." Su Zhenzhen felt that her mother would only laugh and mock her father. He already had so many concubines, princes and princesses. Would her mother still care about Wanwan Leiqing?
She thought her mother would probably just feel disgusted, but she wisely chose not to say it, waiting for Rong Jinchen to say it himself. "Isn't the happiest thing for your mother to have two sons, you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" This is what Rong Jinchen said to her himself.
Sure enough, Rong Jinchen said the next moment: "I just feel disgusted for my mother. Why would someone who truly loves someone look for a substitute?" Many scumbags in the novels he and Qingqing read were like this, but Rong Jinchen never thought that his father would look for a substitute like his mother!
There are so many concubines in the harem, but not one of them looks like my mother!
My mother has passed away for eleven years. How could my father suddenly become obsessed with a woman who looks like her?
After calming down, Rong Jinchen realized that his father wasn't that kind of person. If there were someone in his father's harem who looked more or less like his mother, he wouldn't have made such an inference. "My dear, I want to enter the palace. My father isn't that kind of person." He figured he might be waiting for him to make a scene.
Su Zhenzhen smiled and said sweetly, "Okay, Xiao Tangyuan and I will wait for you to come back." She reached out and took Xiao Tangyuan. Seeing Rong Jinchen preparing to enter the palace, she gently reminded him, "Husband, it's cold outside. Remember to put on an extra cotton-padded jacket, bring your black fox cloak, and the hand warmer."
Rong Jinchen turned around and walked to the rosewood chaise longue, leaned over and kissed her on the lips, then kissed the pouting little Tangyuan's little cheeks, "Okay, I'm leaving." "Goodbye, husband/Goodbye, daddy~" Su Zhenzhen waved little Tangyuan's arm, smiling as she looked into the man's ink-black eyes.
East Palace.
Crown Prince Rong Jinyou was silent for a moment. He looked at the Minister of Personnel Luo Qingxu and the Imperial Household Department’s Zhanshi Gu Yan and asked, “Should I ask to see my father?”
What he was talking about was naturally the incident of King Rong Jinyan of Chu presenting a beautiful woman to the emperor. Crown Prince Rong Jinyou felt very physically uncomfortable.
If his mother were still alive in heaven and knew about this, she would definitely be very sad.
Luo Qingxu, the Minister of Personnel and the Crown Prince's father-in-law, frowned. "Your Highness, His Majesty clearly favors Concubine Jia. She was promoted to the rank of Nine Concubines on her first night with him. I'm afraid she'll be promoted to Concubine in the future." He didn't know where the King of Chu had found this beauty; she looked so similar to the late Empress!
Pillow talk is very scary. Luo Qingxu said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince should be patient and wait until Concubine Jia is no longer in favor before making a decision." His Highness the Crown Prince's foundation is far less solid than before. The former King of Jin, King of Duan and King of Chu are pressing him aggressively. Your Majesty's holy heart is extremely important.
Crown Prince Rong Jinyou clenched his hands, placed them behind his back, and stood up, saying, "I can't do it." He couldn't allow someone to have the same face as his mother and rely on her legacy to become his father's concubine!
"Your Highness, what will you do if His Majesty gets angry?" Gu Yan, the Minister of the Eastern Palace, said earnestly. Since His Majesty could depose the Crown Prince once, he could naturally do so again.
Crown Prince Rong Jinyou clenched his fists until they creaked. The corners of his eyes flushed red, his thin lips pressed into a straight line, and he angrily slammed the rosewood desk in the study, "King Chu."
Minister of Personnel Luo Qingxu and Secretary of the Imperial Household Gu Yan lowered their heads silently, not daring to speak.
Weiyang Palace.
Rong Jinchen's face was expressionless, a cold air emanating from his body. He looked at Yu Fuhai, who looked guilty, and said, "Eunuch Yu, this prince requires to see the emperor. Please inform him." Yu Fuhai looked at His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, wearing a jade crown on his head and covered in snow, and complained in his heart, "Your Highness the Prince of Yan, please go to the west warm pavilion to rest and have a cup of hot tea. Concubine Jia is still in the palace. I will report to His Majesty right away."
Listening to the lewd music coming from the hall, Rong Jinchen's face darkened, and a hint of hostility flashed in his eyes. "I will go in by myself." After that, he strode in directly. Yu Fuhai symbolically stopped him and followed him in at a trot.
It’s over. Will it harm this little fish like him?
In the hall, wisps of ambergris smoke rose from the Boshan furnace, and it was as warm as spring. Rong Jinchen saw Jiapin imitating his mother playing the piano at a glance.
Yu Fuhai ran after him, "Your Majesty, I failed to stop His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan." Rong Yue, who was sitting on the golden nanmu chaise longue, had a calm expression on his face. Upon hearing this, he just waved his finger to signal Yu Fuhai to step back.
Rong Jinchen's face was full of displeasure. He deliberately bowed in a cold voice: "Your son pays homage to the emperor. May the emperor live forever." Rong Yue then glanced at Rong Jinchen nonchalantly, "Your son is here? Sit down." He waved his slender hand and folded the bracelet with agarwood, agarwood and gold beads.
Rong Jinchen stood up slowly and sat down at the head of the golden nanmu chaise longue. "Prince Yan, look at this Concubine Jia. Does she have even one tenth of the charm of your mother?" Rong Yue suddenly said.
Jiapin was wearing a light pink gold brocade palace dress, with a snake bun on her head and her hair full of pearls and jade. She was indeed bright and charming.
But Rong Jinchen felt disgusted when he saw it. His mother liked to play the piano with her hair tied up in a simple bun when she was alive. This person was trying to imitate her but couldn't learn even a little bit of his mother's charm.
Rong Jinchen, feeling uncomfortable all over, said without thinking, "Father, you have such poor vision. How can Concubine Jia be compared with the Queen Mother? How can she be worthy of it?"
"How dare you!" Rong Yue sneered upon hearing this. "Prince Yan, am I being too indulgent towards you?"
