The painting is beautiful, and the woman in the painting is also beautiful, gentle and quiet, bright and lovely. She is holding the child, exuding a faint halo. And the man standing in front of her is tall and dressed in bright clothes.
Yellow dragon robe, embellished with a cyan jade pendant on one waist.
The man in the painting was standing sideways. Although he could only see his profile, at a glance, he was handsome and dignified, and the aura of an emperor appeared on the paper. Next to it, there was a line of cursive writing. Yu Lan took a look at it.
, 'In this life, I agree with Zi Cheng that I will hold his hand and grow old together with him.' It is signed and stamped with the imperial seal.
This painting is very warm, and the characters in the painting are even more lifelike. Just looking at it gives people a sense of high-end and grandeur.
Looking at the beautiful woman in the painting, Yu Lan's face heated up, "Is this me?" Is she so beautiful? She was painted so beautifully.
When she saw that word, Yu Lan knew whose hand this painting was. It was painted by the emperor himself. Her father was really versatile in both civil and military affairs. It felt like there was nothing he couldn't do.
"Well, I haven't painted for a long time, so my hands are a bit raw, so I'll just make do with it."
"Sir, you are being humble. This painting is so lifelike. If you look at it at this level, others will be ashamed to death."
"This painting commemorates the birth of the emperor and the little princess to me. Do you like it?"
"Needless to say, I will definitely like it and have it framed and hung in my bedroom."
Zhao Chengji nodded: "Okay..."
"Slave, I will go and have it framed and hang it in the palace."
As he spoke, Ji Wen put away the scroll and respectfully stepped back.
The abdominal pain felt better, and Yu Lan wanted to go to the toilet. In addition, the amount of bleeding also made her very uncomfortable.
"I want to make it easier."
"Well, I will carry you."
Zhao Chengji stood up, put one hand around her waist, put the other hand through the crook of her leg, picked up Yu Lan and went to the side hall. There were clean buckets and screens, and incense was lit.
Put people down.
Zhao Chengji whispered: "Be careful."
Yu Lan responded, "Okay, get out quickly."
"You guys take good care of her."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After seeing the palace maid helping Yu Lan, Zhao Chengji let go of his hand and left the side hall.
Seeing him leaving, Yu Lan touched her cheek. She had a baby, but she still blushed.
Sitting on the toilet, Yu Lan gasped in pain. This feeling can only be experienced by a mother...
At the same time, on the other side.
The imperial list with the big seal was quickly sent to all parts of the country...
"By God's blessing, the emperor decreed that Concubine Chen gave birth to the emperor's heir safely. I am very happy. The princess is my eldest daughter and my first child. She was canonized as the eldest princess, named Zhao Baozhu, and titled Mingzhu.
The pearl of the kingdom. The prince born later is the eldest prince, named Ling Xiao.
Concubine Chen gave birth to a dragon and a phoenix, which is an auspicious sign. I am grateful for God's love. From now on, taxes in all parts of the country will be reduced by half for two years. I hereby announce it to the world. The envoys will hear this and admire it."
If the emperor's eldest daughter is not officially canonized, she is just a princess. Even if she has a long name, she cannot be called the eldest princess. Of course, if the emperor likes her and canonize her formally, her status is self-evident, and she is the most important among the princesses.
Noble. Even if the future queen gives birth to a legitimate princess, the status of the canonized eldest princess will be higher than hers. One can imagine how much the emperor loves his little princess.
Once the imperial list comes out, within a few days at the latest, everyone in the Northern Kingdom will know that the royal family has a princess and a prince. There is a successor to the emperor. Not only the royal family is happy, but also the tens of millions of people.
Two days later, on the road from Cuixian to the imperial capital, many pedestrians were carrying burdens or driving ox carts, rushing to the next town.
From time to time, you can still see carriages passing by on the road, and the sound of rolling wheels can be heard.
Rich people ride in carriages or horses. Poor people walk or ride in bullock carts. Big people live like big people, and small people also live like small people.
Among these people, there is one person walking with his head down at the moment. The person is in ragged clothes and has disheveled hair. Not only that, he is also lame on one foot and walking very slowly. Apart from the fact that he is a man, his appearance is very black.
, even worse than the beggar on the roadside. This person was none other than Zhao Chengjin, who escaped from the depths of the mine half a month ago.
At first, he was going to report to the government, hoping to get help from the government. But with him like that, no one believed that he was the prince, and he was afraid of being imprisoned and unable to get out, so he could only wander all the way.
On the way, he met an old farmer and gave him a ride.
Zhao Chengjin will not let go of anyone who harmed him. As long as he can go back, he will make sure those people die without a burial place. No, he will destroy their whole family. He wants to live, even if he leaves, he will go back.
Go to the imperial capital.
"Have you heard that taxes will be halved within two years? This is really a great favor from the emperor."
"Yes, I hope there will be a good harvest this year and I can save more food."
"When we get back, let my mother-in-law hang up a red lantern. Your Majesty the Prince has been born. We have hope."
"That's true. I hope that our prince, your Royal Highness, will develop martial virtues and benefit the world in the future."
"Needless to say, it can definitely be..."
As he was chewing on the steamed buns he snatched from the beggar, the lame Zhao Chengjin was a little confused.
What else will they say?
After taking a few steps forward, Zhao Chengjin grabbed the passerby's arm.
"What did you just say..."
"What the hell, where did this beggar come from... let me go."
"Tell me, what else are you talking about, your highness the prince, and what tax reductions and exemptions you have."
"There's something wrong with you, get out of here."
"Tell me quickly."
"You soiled the new clothes my mother-in-law made for me." As he spoke, the man who was pulled directly pushed Zhao Chengjin to the ground.
"The imperial list has been posted. Concubine Chen has safely given birth to the eldest princess and the eldest prince. Your Highness, the prince of our Northern Territory State, is so generous that our emperor has reduced taxes."
"Now you know! It's true, my clothes are all stained. These are new clothes my mother-in-law made for me. I usually don't want to wear them." The man snorted, cursed and walked away.
Zhao Chengjin, who fell to the ground, shook his head.
"impossible."
"This is impossible."
How could he have a prince? It must be a lie. This must be a lie. When he first heard that Concubine Chen was pregnant, he did not believe that the emperor could have children. Now there are still two.
The emperor must have been deceived.
That's not his son at all.
Not at all...
"Damn it...Damn it..."
The fist hit the ground.
"I have been reborn. I know everything. Shouldn't I be the destiny? I have given my brother sterilization medicine. Why is it not my turn in this life..."
Why.
How unfair is God.
The eldest princess is not necessarily the emperor's sister. The eldest princess is a title, and the emperor's daughter can also be canonized. But everyone has their own opinions, so let's make do with it! I will try to change the previous one and scratch my head.
