Chapter 215 Brothers Talk
New Year’s Eve.
The sun was shining and the falling snow had stopped.
Su Zhenzhen snuggled in the fragrant and soft quilt, not wanting to get up. She buried herself directly in the man's chest, one hand touching his waist and back, which felt very good, and the other hand touching his abdominal muscles.
Rong Jinchen noticed her little movement, and his closed eyes quietly opened. He lowered his neck to look at her fluffy little head resting on his chest, and touched her messy hair. "Qingqing, do you want to get up?" His voice was hoarse and low, so sweet that it could make people's ears pregnant.
Su Zhenzhen rubbed his hot chest again, "I don't want to~" The next moment she raised her little head, "Husband, kiss me~" Her eyes were misty, she looked at him sleepily, reached out and rubbed her eyelids, very clingy.
She couldn't help but wrap her arms around the man's lean waist and cling to him like a coquettish octopus.
The man laughed, pressed the back of her soft, white neck, and pressed his thin lips against the girl's sweet lips. Their shallow breaths intertwined, revealing an indescribable intimacy and tenderness.
Another half hour passed, and Su Zhenzhen, who had been lazy in bed, finally wanted to get up. Her delicate and beautiful cheeks were rosy, and her lover's safe embrace and lingering kisses were indeed easy to make people addicted.
Rong Jinchen picked her up skillfully and found clothes for her to wear today. Su Zhenzhen cooperated very well and said with a sweet smile: "My husband is so nice." The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and a doting smile appeared in his eyes, "Hmm?" Su Zhenzhen smiled with her lips pursed.
After they finished their breakfast and lunch and dressed up, they were ready to enter the palace.
Prince Jin's Mansion.
Su Yiyi can also prepare to attend the palace banquet this time. Last year, because she was too pregnant, she did not enter the palace.
Princess Jin looked at Su Yiyi, who was wearing the attire of a concubine. A hint of darkness flashed across her eyes. She then looked at Concubine Feng and raised the corners of her lips.
Prince Jin Rong Jinyu was in a good mood today, but he had noticed his father's attitude towards the crown prince.
It was indeed he who secretly instigated this matter. Yu Jingli was an alcoholic. Someone seduced him in a subtle way, and he just told the truth after drinking. What a fool.
King Jin thought it was a good thing to be able to please the Crown Prince. One must do things step by step, otherwise how can one have fun?
He looked at Su Yiyi and Concubine Feng, who were engaged in a verbal battle, then glanced at Princess Jin, who was enjoying the melon, and said impatiently, "It's getting late, let's get ready to go."
"I obey your command." The voices of Princess Jin Su Yiyi and Concubine Feng were very coordinated. Concubine Feng was so angry that her teeth were itching. She looked down on Su Yiyi, who came from behind and became the winner.
Prince Duan's Mansion.
Princess Xia Xuan of Prince Duan looked at the happy Prince Duan Rong Jinqi and Concubine Li and their family of four. She almost gritted her teeth. How unfair is God?
Why hasn't she gotten pregnant after being married for many years?
This year marks her seventh anniversary of marriage to His Royal Highness Prince Duan. Concubine Wu gave her a deadline at the palace banquet last year. If there is no news this year, she will register the illegitimate son as the legitimate one.
Xia Xuan really hated it, why?
She has seen countless famous doctors and taken countless fertility medicines, but why can't she have a baby?
Right now, His Royal Highness Prince Duan is clearly doting on his cousin Li, and she, the princess consort, is almost becoming an outsider!
She is now really worried about what to do with the palace banquet.
Prince Chu's Palace.
Princess Ningxia of Chu looked at Prince Rong Jinyan of Chu. She gestured to the headpiece held by her maid, "Your Highness, which headpiece would look good on me? This ruby filigree plum blossom headpiece? Or the sapphire and silver orchid headpiece?" Rong Jinyan smiled at her, "Of course, my princess looks good in anything, but I think pearls suit you better."
He and the princess were a harmonious couple, so naturally he was willing to spend time watching her dress up. After all, women dress up to please themselves.
She took a look at the ruby, pearl and butterfly headdress inlaid and found it was indeed nice, so she smiled and took the man's arm, "Your Highness, can you help me put it on, okay?" Rong Jinyan did as she was told, her eyes full of smiles.
Just looking at the quality of the pearls on this headdress, he was a little dissatisfied. His princess naturally deserved the best.
Prince Rong Jinyan of Chu recalled the several large carriages of gifts his father had bestowed upon Prince Rong Jinchen of Yan and his wife, Su Zhenzhen, and then the boxes he had received. His eyes darkened slightly. Then he smiled again. The Crown Prince wasn't the first to receive a gift from his father. Even though the gifts were similar to previous years, they were still different...
East Palace.
Su Zhenzhen was chatting with the Crown Princess. They entered the palace early. Rong Jinchen came to talk to Crown Prince Rong Jinyou first, and then they went to Weiyang Palace.
Then I will follow my father to attend the palace banquet in the evening.
Right now, in His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's study.
Rong Jinchen looked at his second brother, the Crown Prince, who treated him as always, his eyes moved slightly, and he opened his mouth: "Second brother, I..." Before he could finish, Crown Prince Rong Jinyou interrupted him, "Achen, I know." It was not Achen's fault.
He knew that it was his father who made this decision, and it was also his father who intended to support Prince Jin Rong Jinyu and Prince Chu Rong Jinyan to compete with him.
But in the past, he thought that his father wanted Prince Jin to be his sharpening stone, but recently his father made him confused...
He thought of Yu's experience that had previously put him in a crisis of rumors. Rong Jinyou clearly knew that the King of Jin and the King of Chu must have been behind the scenes fanning the flames, but in the end it was his fault for not governing strictly enough.
Then he said to Rong Jinchen: "Achen, am I too useless as a prince?" Rong Jinchen pursed his lips and said, "Second brother, you are a very good prince." Who in the court doesn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is both civil and military, kind and upright?
Rong Jinyou sneered, "Sometimes I envy you. Not only do you have the favor of my father, but you can also be in love with your sweetheart. Why don't I have that?" He was also speaking from the heart. The question had been buried in his heart for too long.
If he and Rong Jinchen had not had a good relationship since childhood, he would not have said such heartfelt words.
The handsome young man pursed his thin lips and looked at Rong Jinyou steadily, "Second brother, father values you and dotes on me, his youngest son." Since ancient times, the head of the family would not dote on the eldest son, but would let him grow up to be the one who would inherit the family business.
Rong Jinchen also knew that the reason his father treated him so well was partly because he couldn't give him the throne. Fortunately, he didn't originally seek this.
But after knowing the direction of future generations, Rong Jinchen could not find a way to prevent his father from deposing the crown prince. For the first time, he felt a desire for the throne.
As the legitimate sons of the Empress, if he and his second brother, the Crown Prince, cannot succeed to the throne, their fate is obvious.
Crown Prince Rong Jinyou smiled faintly, "I, the crown prince, don't have a confidant, so it's a luxury to expect that my wife and I can communicate with each other. I've been thinking about it all night, but I can't even do it to your level, so how can I ask my wife to love me?" For him and the Crown Princess, treating each other with respect is already the most ideal state.
