Mrs. Su straightened Yongzhang's crooked little hat and said with a smile: "It's better now. When he was just born, he was really soft and his head and neck couldn't stand up. Fortunately, grandma was there to carry him.
Otherwise, I will be left alone, and I really don’t know what to do.”
Xianyue was about to speak when Yongzhang in his arms suddenly opened his toothless mouth and smiled. His chubby little hands were still grabbing Xiayue's face. Finally, he grabbed Xiayue's earrings and pushed them hard.
Pull down.
Seeing this, Mrs. Su quickly said: "Yongzhang, let go quickly."
The child, who was only four months old, could not understand her words. Instead, he held on tighter and tighter, making Xianyue cry out in pain. Aluo was about to pull the earrings out of Yongzhang's hands, but Xianyue stopped her and said, "This golden pipa
There are many sharp points on the earrings. If you pull them like this, you will definitely injure Brother San's hand, so you should take off the earrings."
A Luo complied and took off the earrings and let Yong Zhang take them in his hand to play with. Su bent her knees and said, "Yong Zhang is ignorant and has hurt your Majesty. Please forgive me."
While teasing Yongzhang in her arms, Xianyue said: "Where did you think of it? The third elder brother is young and ignorant, how can I blame him? If I have such a lovely elder brother, even if I give him every day
I would be happy if he pulled the earrings."
It wasn't until her hands became a little sore that Xianyue handed Yongzhang back to her mother and said with a smile: "You are only so young, but you are already so smart and cute. When you grow up, you will definitely be as good as the second elder brother."
"Your Majesty, I'm so impressed. If Yongzhang can be half as smart as the second elder brother, I'll be satisfied." As she said this, her eyes flashed and hesitantly said: "I heard a rumor, I don't know.
It’s true or false.”
Xianyue looked curious, "Oh? What is it? Let me tell you."
"I heard that the officials wanted to ask the emperor to establish a prince as soon as possible. If this is true, then the most likely person is the second elder brother, who is the eldest son. Although the elder brother is older, he is not as good as the second elder brother.
He is smart and precocious, and he is also a concubine, so there is no difference between a concubine and a concubine."
Xianyue also heard some rumors about this matter, but Hongli hadn't decided yet, so she never said much. She didn't expect that Su Shi would talk to her about it today. She smiled and said: "This matter is not something we can do.
As for speculating on words, what we have to do is to do our job well, don’t you think so?"
Mrs. Su didn't expect that she would say such a thing. She was stunned for a while and then said: "What the empress said is that I talk too much."
"I still have something to do. I will come see you and Third Elder Brother another day. In addition, I also have a piece of fine white jade over there. I will have someone carve it into a jade pendant and then send it to Third Elder Brother."
"Your Majesty, I love you so much, my concubine..." Before Su could finish her words, Xianyue interrupted: "I am very close to my third brother, you are not allowed to be polite to me anymore."
Su Shi said knowingly: "Yes, I will send you out, my concubine."
Su Shi brought Xianyue all the way to the gate of Yikun Palace, and then stopped. After she walked away, she winked at the little eunuch beside her, who nodded and followed quietly.
When Xianyue passed the right door of Changkang, she heard a cat meowing. She turned around and unexpectedly saw a small figure squatting in the corner. In front of it was a pure black cat, only bigger than an ordinary person's fist.
It's a little older and is currently licking the goat's milk from the small plate.
"Drink slowly, don't choke." Listening to this voice, it seems to be Yonglian, but why is he here.
Before Xianyue could figure it out, there was an exclamation in her ears, and she hurriedly walked over. After seeing her face clearly, she found that it was indeed Yonglian. At this moment, he was covering his fingers in pain. As for the little black cat, he was
I don't know where I went.
A hint of disgust flashed across Xianyue's eyes, and she knelt down and asked with concern: "Second brother, what's wrong?"
After Yonglian recognized Xianyue, she reluctantly said, "I wanted to touch it just now, but it gave me a claw. It hurt."
"Come, sit down quickly and let me take a look." When Xianyue spoke, Qi Kuan was already kneeling on the ground, using it as a stool for Yong Lian to sit down.
Yonglian glanced at him, but did not sit down, but said: "Empress, when I came here just now, I saw a pavilion not far ahead. Let's go there."
Xianyue nodded and asked Qi Kuan to pick up Yong Lian and move forward. Although Yong Lian said it was not far, he still walked a long way before reaching Qianqiu Pavilion.
After Yonglian sat down, Xianyue said: "Hurry up and let me see if the injury is serious."
Yong Lian nodded obediently and let go of the hand he had been covering, revealing two deep claw marks and oozing blood. Xianyue asked Qi Kuan to quickly fetch water and wash the blood on his hands.
Just now he carefully wrapped the wound with a handkerchief, "Be careful not to get it wet until the wound heals, okay?"
Yong Lian nodded obediently and said, "Yong Lian knows, thank you so much, Madam."
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, why are you here? Shouldn't you be asleep at this time?" Seeing Yonglian's eyes evading, she understood something and said: "Tell me honestly, are you secretly sleeping?"
Ran away?"
Yong Lian nodded and said hurriedly: "Empress, please don't tell me, okay?"
Xianyue stared at him and said, "Why? Are you afraid of being punished by the Queen?"
Yong Lian shook his head and said, "No, I'm afraid that if the Queen finds out, I won't be able to come out to feed the cat again."
"Which palace does that cat from just now belong to?" Faced with Xia Yue's question, Yong Lian shook his head and said, "I don't know. Last time when I passed by this place with the Queen's mother, I saw the cat huddled against the wall and was very worried.
She was very thin, so I often fed the cat some cakes and goat's milk while Huang's mother wasn't paying attention, but it didn't eat cakes and drank some goat's milk at most."
A Luo laughed at the side and said: "Second brother, there is no cat that likes to eat cakes. It's almost as good as feeding it fish."
"Why?" After all, Yonglian was still young and didn't understand many things. Xianyue explained: "No reason, it's just the cat's eating habits. It likes to eat fish and doesn't like anything other than fish. You can't
Force it to eat things it doesn't like."
Yonglian suddenly said: "So that's it, then I will bring it fish next time." After that, he said a little discouraged: "I don't know if it will be there tomorrow. If I had known it would scare it, I wouldn't have done it.
Touched."
Xianyue comforted: "It's okay, it won't have anything to eat tomorrow, so it will naturally wait for you to feed it. However, you have to think carefully about how to explain the injury on your hand to the Queen, she will definitely find it.
of."
"This..." Yong Lian looked at Xiayue helplessly and said, "Empress, can you help me think of a way?"
"Actually, it's just a cat. It doesn't matter if you can't come to feed it. Why do you have to hide it from the Queen?"
