Chapter 278 Am I superfluous?! (Additional update after post)
"Mother, I heard that there are a lot of fun things outside the palace, including monkey performers, candy blowers, candied haws sellers, and people with broken chests!" Princess Jinshu's eyes were full of enthusiasm.
Wen Xiaotu was stroking the jadeite in his arms. After raising this cold little girl for so long, he was finally willing to touch it. Wen Xiao raised his eyes and looked at the little girl. You know the princess in the deep palace?
Quite a lot.
"Don't act coquettishly with me. It doesn't matter what I said about leaving the palace." Wen Xiaotu muttered in his heart, I still want to leave the palace!
Jin Shu lowered his head and looked at the toes of his shoes, "Mother, go and beg your father. As long as you ask, my father will definitely agree!"
Wen Xiaotu's heart suddenly moved, yes, this is a good excuse...
Haiyan Hall.
Seeing Atu acting like a little spoiled wife, holding a snack box in her hand, her smile was extremely sweet, which made Emperor Mingzhao feel itchy in his heart. This is the first time since Atu married me.
Come to me proactively.
Wen Xiaotu took out the pink peach blossom cakes, Ruyi rolls, noodle fruits and a cup of lotus seed soup from the food box, placed them in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and said softly: "Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work in approving the dumplings. Take a sip of the lotus seed soup."
Moisten your throat."
Ming Zhao happily picked up the warm but not hot lotus seed soup and took a sip, and couldn't help but said: "It's so sweet."
Wen Xiaotu was stunned for a moment, "No way, I know that the emperor doesn't like sweetness, so I specifically ordered it to be filled with only half the sugar."
Ming Zhao secretly stretched out his hand, grabbed Wen Xiaotu's hand, scraped her palm twice, and said in an extremely eager tone, "But I just feel it's so sweet."
Wen Xiaotu: Co-writing is teasing me!
"Eat more if the emperor likes it." Wen Xiaotu thought to himself, that's enough.
Ming Zhao looked at the plate of pink and lovely peach blossom cakes again, "The peach blossoms are in full bloom now. I will accompany you to Luoying Pavilion to enjoy the peach blossoms someday."
Wen Xiaotu looked uninterested: "I have admired the peach blossoms in the Summer Palace every year, but there is nothing new about them."
Ming Zhao was startled: "Furongpu will have to live for some time..."
Wen Xiaotu hurriedly raised a charming smile: "I remember that a few years ago, the emperor took me to Taiming Mountain. The scenery there was quiet and beautiful, and it was great for an outing."
Ming Zhao smiled and asked: "Atu wants to leave the palace?"
Wen Xiaotu hurriedly said: "It's not that I want to leave the palace, but that Concubine has been clamoring for the past two days to let me go out of the palace to play. She is a princess and doesn't know that she has never heard of it. She also knows what's going on outside.
There are juggling.”
Ming Zhao's smile suddenly dropped, "Do you still want to bring the brocade book?"
Wen Xiaotu said hurriedly: "If you can, why not bring the food with you?" - We are all biological, so it is not easy to favor one over the other.
The emperor lost his smile.
Wen Xiaotu was not stupid. He saw that the emperor was not very happy, so he hurriedly asked: "Is the emperor very busy these days?"
Ming Zhao gave a faint "hmm" and pointed at the memorials on most of his desk, "There are continuous floods in the south, and the embankments are almost bursting, and there is a drought in the north. Things are really complicated recently."
Wen Xiaotu said with a virtuous face: "If the emperor really has no time to do it, why not..."
Ming Zhao thought to himself: It would be better to go boating at Furongpo in a while.
"——I, my concubine, bring some porridge and rice and go out of the palace to get some fresh air." Wen Xiaotu put forward his suggestion with excitement on his face.
Emperor Mingzhao:...Am I superfluous?!!
At this moment, Mingzhao just wanted to throw all the memorials on the table. I finally understood that Atu came so diligently just because of these two bastards! She just wanted to take her children out to play.
Don’t want to take me with you!
Wen Xiaotu couldn't help but feel excited, "I haven't seen my mother for some time. If I can get out of the palace, I would like to visit my father and mother." - Changguo Gongfu also has a summer residence in the suburbs of Beijing. Now the emperor
Everyone came to the Summer Palace, and many courtiers also moved to the suburbs of Beijing to live.
The other courtyard of Changguo Duke's Mansion was given to her by the emperor when she was a noble concubine.
Ming Zhao's face was dark. You were thinking of your children and your parents, but why weren't you thinking of me?!
"If you miss Mrs. Xu, you can invite her to the palace." Ming Zhao said with a straight face.
Eh? When did the emperor change his face? Wen Xiaotu realized it later and whispered: "Actually, mother... I think she only has porridge and rice." After all, she is Wen Ruchu now.
, not Wen Rutu.
Wen Xiaotu was not dissatisfied with this, after all, it was her choice to conceal it. Mrs. Xu was old, and if she had the chance, she would still like to visit the elderly with porridge and rice.
But Emperor Mingzhao still heard the loneliness in Atu's voice, and he couldn't help but softened his heart a little bit, and said: "Jingjun is the prince, and he cannot leave the palace at will." - What kind of palace did the little bastard leave? Stay here honestly.
The palace allows me to study and practice martial arts!
Wen Xiaotu was overjoyed, "Then the porridge is okay, right?" - The princess doesn't need to inherit the throne anyway!
Ming Zhao could only show a helpless look on his face and said: "Let's go in two days. I will try my best to make time to accompany you two out of the palace, but I can't go as far as Taiming Temple."
Wen Xiaotu was overjoyed and nodded quickly: "As long as you find a street where you can eat, drink and have fun, you will be very happy! After you have had enough fun, just go to the Wen Family Courtyard and sit for a while!" - In fact, Taiming Temple
I've long been tired of playing, so I'd better go out to see the monkeys, watch the juggling, and eat some street food, and it's perfect!
As he said this, Wen Xiaotu felt a little shy, "But if I do this, I'm afraid it will delay most of the day, and will it delay the government affairs?"
Ming Zhao had no choice but to say sternly: "No, I will handle it in advance." - In fact, there were not many government affairs in the first place. There was just more rain in the south and the dykes did not burst. Spring drought in the north is also unavoidable. There are too many
Just arrange for some people to dig canals and wells, and in areas with serious droughts, just reduce or reduce taxes.
This kind of thing happens every year.
"It's really hard work, Your Majesty." Wen Xiaotu was really touched. He was so busy at work, but he had to work overtime to spare time to accompany his mother to the palace.
Mingzhao couldn't help but scratched Atu's palm again, "As the emperor, I have to deal with all kinds of things every day, so how can I not be hard-working? If Atu is willing to understand my hard work, then I can't be considered hard-working."
Wen Xiaotu's black line, why are you flirting with me again? Hurry up and comment!
"Then I will polish the ink for you." She quickly took her paw out of the emperor's big paw, rolled up her sleeves, and polished the ink.
A pool of good ink was polished quickly, "Your Majesty, hurry up and approve the paper!" - Hurry up and work overtime!
Ming Zhao: I always feel that something is not right...
Forget it, let’s approve the discount first.
A man who works hard is still quite attractive. The emperor has good looks. Although he is not delicate enough, he is quite mature and charming. He has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and his manners are dignified. Even if he is dressed in regular clothes, he can't hide his majestic aura.
In this way, they were busy enough until the red sun set in the west. The emperor put down the wolf hair in his hand and said, "I am a little tired and want to take a bath in Yude Hall."
Wen Xiaotu cursed: Why should I take a bath? It’s more serious to work overtime quickly!
But these words were too impersonal, so Wen Xiaotu could only say: "Then I have returned to Heqing Palace."
But the emperor grabbed her hand, and his voice suddenly became eager and low: "Come with me."
Wen Xiaotu: ...You haven’t finished your work yet, and you still want to have sex?
