Yunxi looked around and was about to say something to Xiyao. Suddenly Huang Fu walked up to him and said softly: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the border."
"Urgent border report?" Yunxi was very curious: "Is there an urgent border report at this time? Where did it come from?"
"Your Majesty, you are coming from Guangxi. The Guangxi Dusi and the Jingjiang Palace jointly reported an urgent report." Huang Fu said.
"Expedited for several hundred miles?" Yunxi asked again.
"Your Majesty, it's an urgent matter of 200 miles." Huang Fu continued to answer.
"Two hundred miles urgent." Yunxi had already wanted to read the report, but he sat down again after hearing these words. At this time, the Ming Dynasty divided emergency reports into three categories, two hundred miles urgent, and fourth. Baili Express and Six Hundred Miles Express. Although Two Hundred Miles Express is also urgent, it is the lowest level of First Class Express and is generally used to deliver important but not particularly urgent matters.
Since it was an important but not particularly urgent matter, there was no need for Yunxi to go there now. He waved his hand and asked Huang Fu to step aside and continue the banquet.
Afterwards, everyone saw that Yunxi had stopped eating, and they all put down their chopsticks regardless of whether they were full or not. Although children may not have such eyesight, they don't eat much to begin with, so they didn't eat when they saw their parents. I stopped eating.
After that, they came to another palace nearby. Yunxi asked people to take out many lanterns with riddles written on them, and said to his concubines: "I asked the eunuchs in the palace to come out of the palace to copy these from the lantern festival a few days ago. I don’t know the answer to the lantern riddles either. Come and guess, whoever guesses the most correct lantern riddles, I will grant her a wish.”
Then he said to Min'er and others: "Min'er, Siqi, Wenyao, Wenyuan, Wenqi, I have also prepared a few simpler lantern riddles for you. You can also guess, which one can guess the most riddles?" Father also has a reward."
Xiyao immediately said: "Husband, my concubine's talents are far inferior to those of my sisters, so I won't guess these lantern riddles and let my sisters do the guessing."
Yunxi nodded. If Xiyao doesn't withdraw from the competition, who would dare to be above her? That would be boring.
His words immediately had an effect. Even if it was just for fun, no one wanted to lose: Moreover, Yunxi also gave a reward of 'fulfilling a wish', and the queen withdrew from the competition. This was an opportunity to solidify her favor, and even more It's time to fight.
Five children don't have such complicated thoughts as adults, but the three little boys all want to show off in front of Yunxi. Min'er is also very competitive. Only Siqi is not very keen on this, but he still fights with force. The spirit started to guess.
Yunxi sat aside, smiling and watching them rack their brains to guess the lantern riddles. From time to time, someone would write his answer on his hand and show it to the eunuch who knew the answer. Then he would see the eunuch shaking his head or nodding. If he shook his head, everyone would Just keep guessing, nodding and the eunuch will reveal the answer.
It was even more interesting for a few children to guess riddles on the side. Miner asked someone to take off the lantern and almost put his face against the lantern, thinking hard.
But Yunxi suddenly remembered the memorial that he had put aside and rushed over from Guangxi from Erbaili.
'The memorial was sent by the Guangxi Dusi and the Jingjiang Prince's Palace. It shows that the matter is indeed very important. Otherwise, why would Zanyi jointly submit the letter?' Yunxi thought.
Seeing that nothing happened to him, he quietly called Huang Fu over and said, "Bring over the memorial from Guangxi."
Huang Fu accepted the order and left. After a while, he came back with a memorial and handed it to Yun Xi.
Yunxi reached out to take it, opened it and took a glance at it, then his expression changed. But as he looked at the memorial for longer and longer, his expression returned to normal.
After a while, Yunxi put down the memorial and whispered: "As expected, God did not completely change the script, but only modified it slightly."
"Husband, do you have something to deal with?" Xiyao asked after hearing Yunxi's words.
Yunxi shook his head and said: "It's nothing. There is indeed something, but it doesn't need to be dealt with today, let alone it can't be dealt with today."
After that, Yunxi continued to watch his concubines and children guessing lantern riddles.
At the end of the evening, although several lantern riddles had not been guessed, Yunxi also said with a smile: "The time is up, let me see who can guess the most lantern riddles?"
He looked up, counted them, and said, "It seems that Baoqin and Wenyuan have guessed the most lantern riddles. Tell me, what do you want? As long as you tell me, I will agree."
"Of course, it can't be something I can't achieve. For example, if you ask me to pick off the stars and give them to you, I can't achieve it." Yunxi added with a smile.
Baoqin seemed to be very shy. He walked up to Yunxi and said in his ear: "Your Majesty, I want the Emperor to give me another child."
In fact, Baoqin really wanted to say: "Your Majesty, please give the position of queen to me." But even if you think on your toes, you know that this is impossible. It is also very unwise to make other excessive demands.
There was no need to mention it today, so she said this.
After listening to Baoqin's request, Yunxi smiled softly at her and said, "I also want to give Baoqin another child. I will try my best to make Baoqin pregnant again tonight."
Baoqin's face turned slightly red and he said no more.
Then he said to Wenyuan: "Wenyuan, what do you want?"
Wenyuan actually struggled with this issue for a long time. As the crown prince, although Yunxi and Xiyao were not spoiled children and were very strict with him, he almost wanted everything.
No shortage.
So Wenyuan was silent for a while and then said: "Father, can you let Mr. Luan enter the palace in advance to teach your son?"
Yunxi never expected that Wen Yuan would make such a request. He was stunned for a moment and then said: "Well, Wen Yuan, even if you like to study, Mr. Luan also has his own family. He has other things to do these days and cannot come to the palace to teach you.
.So please change your request."
Wenyuan began to think deeply again, and after a while he said: "Can my father and mother spend a day with my son tomorrow? My father and mother have never spent a day together with my son."
Yunxi was immediately shocked. He quickly thought of the situation of almost all princes in history: basically they were only accompanied by their mother, without their father's company, and lacked father's love. He thought he cared about Wenyuan very much, but Wenyuan still
I feel like my parents are less with me.
Yunxi turned his head to look at Xiyao and saw that her expression had also changed.
He withdrew his gaze, knelt down and said to Wenyuan: "My father will go to court tomorrow, so I can't spend the whole day with you. But my father can spend all his time with you after the court."
Wenyuan seemed a little disappointed when he heard the first half of Yunxi's words, but immediately became happy after hearing the second half and said: "Keep your word."
"Father must keep his word." Yunxi said.
On the second day, Yunxi and Xiyao really stayed with him for the whole day after going to court. Anyway, they had just started going to court, so there was nothing much to do. Of course, Yunxi was not the only one who accompanied him, Min'er also played with him.
, they were biological sisters from the same father and mother, and Wenyuan didn't care.
Since he was with one, it was not good to not care about the others. In the next three days, Yunxi spent time alone with Wen Yao, Wen Qi and Siqi. As for the other children, they were too young to have this concept, but Yunxi
It also increases the time spent with them.
But on the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the things that Yun Xi had been putting off could finally be dealt with, and he didn't have much time to spend with his children anymore.
