Emperor Hongwen also laughed and took out something from his arms in a low voice: "Hong'er, give this to the Queen Mother..."
"What is it?"
"Give it to the Queen Mother, and you will know."
"Will the Queen Mother like it?"
"Yes! Definitely."
The morning sun has fully risen.
"Queen Mother...Queen Mother..."
The clear voice of a child came running in: "Queen Mother, why didn't you sleep? Did you stay up late last night?"
Her eyes were a little red, and the child saw them. He threw himself into her arms, caressed her eyes, smoothed her messy eyebrows, and asked in a sweet voice: "Queen Mother, why don't you sleep?"
She hugged the child. She was exhausted, but she immediately became energetic: "Hong'er, the Queen Mother will read something and go to rest in a while."
"Queen Mother, Hong'er is so happy. My father said that Hong'er will follow the Queen Mother from now on. Even if the vacation ends this year, Hong'er doesn't have to go to Pingcheng. My father said that Hong'er should make his own decision. If Hong'er doesn't go
, you don’t have to go...ah, Queen Mother, I don’t want to go. I will go only if the Queen Mother goes. If the Queen Mother doesn’t go, I won’t go... Queen Mother, you see, this is what my father said..."
What the child held in his hand turned out to be an imperial edict.
It was written by Emperor Hongwen himself.
Before this, he had never issued any formal written document regarding the education and upbringing of his children. Even when he appointed King Jingzhao and others as Tutors, it was only verbally.
She read the imperial edict carefully, why didn't she understand? Emperor Hongwen, this is to completely dispel his worries.
You are not joking, once an imperial edict is issued, of course it cannot be changed.
Moreover, he asked his son to bring the imperial edict back in person.
She looked outside the door subconsciously: "Hong'er, has Father been here?"
"I came here early, and I've left now."
She smiled bitterly. For some reason, the relationship with Emperor Hongwen had become like this, and even face-to-face communication was difficult. Without this child, she had no doubt that she and Emperor Hongwen would never have any contact with each other until they died.
