The Crown Princess apologized personally, so why does Wen Yao mind so much?
"The Crown Princess is too polite, but the Crown Prince is also unintentional. Wen Yao can understand."
Under the Queen's gaze, the prince obediently shut up, but there was still some disapproval on his face. He yawned and said, "Mother, can you have a meal? I'm hungry."
This sentence was like a child's coquettishness, and the queen's face showed a bit of kindness. After all, it was her own, and she said: "So sleepy? But there are too many affairs in the court, and you are tired?
The queen asked someone to stew squab soup, please drink two more bowls."
"Okay, I'm really tired. I need to make up for it."
A sarcastic smile flashed across the corner of the Crown Princess's mouth. Isn't it tiring? Isn't it tiring to fool around with the concubines day and night?
She couldn't say this, or even file a complaint. After all, procreating heirs was the greatest purpose of the prince's existence.
Lunch was eaten in silence, and then Wen Yao and the other two resigned and left.
However, the Crown Princess invited the two of them to drink tea in the East Palace. They had something to talk about alone, so they had no choice but to go to the East Palace to sit.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Taisun Yuan Boxi had just returned from get out of class, and following him was his second brother Wen Zhao.
"Eldest sister, eldest brother-in-law, I will send my grandson back from get out of class."
Only then did Wen Yao remember that Wen Zhao could now give lectures to Taisun. It seemed that Taisun liked him very much.
"I have met His Highness Taisun."
Wen Yao saluted, and the grandson's childish face showed a bit of precocity. He raised his hand and said: "Without courtesy, according to your seniority, I will also call you cousin. I like Bachelor Wen very much. He has traveled to many places. He said
You supported him to go, you are good."
Wen Zhao smiled embarrassedly, not embarrassed to say that he was ignorant when he was young.
Grandson Wen Yao likes such a sensible person very much, "It's all his own efforts. You can't understand anything by just reading books, but also by experiencing it yourself."
Taisun looked at her expectantly: "Can I go and see it too?"
"this……"
Wen Yao couldn't guarantee it. He was the emperor's only grandson. If something unexpected happened, who could bear the responsibility?
"My grandson, you can talk to your mother and concubine. It's a good idea you have."
It's better to leave this matter to the Crown Princess.
The princess invited them to drink tea. The grandson was a child after all, but he still loved to play. He pestered Yuan Rui to play pot throwing, and Wen Zhao also played together. The three men got along well with each other.
Wen Yao drank tea and waited quietly for the Crown Princess to ask questions.
The Crown Princess's face changed, and she finally sighed and said: "Yaoyao, you are a smart person, I will tell you straight to the point, can I still be pregnant with my body?"
Wen Yao glanced at her and said, "The Crown Princess already has a son and a daughter. What a blessing. Why do you still want to have children?"
The Crown Princess looked at her grandson's lively appearance, with a layer of worry on her face, "My grandson looks fine now, but the child is being disciplined too harshly. Sometimes I feel tired and panicked.
I don't want him to be so tired. If he has brothers to help him share the burden, his life will be easier.
And if I don’t give birth, there are many people in the East Palace who want to give birth. Instead of raising those common children, why can’t I give birth to myself?
I have more children and my status is more stable. If possible, I still want to give the prince a companion."
The prince cannot give her a sense of security, but the child can.
Wen Yao shook her head: "It's not that I don't want to help the Crown Princess, but the Crown Princess's body is too deficient and it will be difficult to conceive in a short period of time. Even if it is available, the Crown Princess's body will be even weaker, and the consequences will be disastrous.
I'll make some recovery pills later, and the princess will take them for a while, and it's better to let nature take its own course with regard to the child."
The Crown Princess was moved and said: "I know you are sincerely good for me. Thank you. You have also seen how the Crown Prince is. Sometimes he is really tired.
I won’t tell you this, you are newly married, it’s a sweet time, live a good life with Hengyu.”
Wen Yao could understand that the prince was mediocre, conceited, greedy for enjoyment, and lustful for beauty. If King Xuan's reputation hadn't declined now, his life would not have been so smooth.
However, King Xuan is not very good anymore, but the fourth prince, King Cheng, is showing signs of rising, which is worrying.
Just when he was thinking about the prince, he came back. When he saw his grandson playing huotong again, he kicked him over and reprimanded his grandson: "You still have the time to play with this? Have you done all your homework?"
If you lose your mind by playing with things, how did Gu Ping teach you? Whoever gave him this to play with, pull him out and punish him with a cane!"
His words made everyone's hearts sink. Taisun even shed tears of grievance, but made no excuse.
Wen Zhao wanted to speak, but Yuan Rui pulled him back and said, "Prince, it's my fault. I think my grandson has finished class and is thinking about his child. Let's combine work and rest and play with him for a while."
Since the prince has other arrangements, Bachelor Wen, please accompany your grandson to the study room to study."
"Yes, I will resign."
The prince still got angry and Wen Zhao said: "Can you, a bachelor, be better than those great scholars? The young ones look unreliable. Let's ask the Hanlin Academy to send some stable gentlemen."
The grandson finally couldn't help but contradicted him and said: "Scholar Wen is the number one scholar in the new subject. His talent and learning are enough to teach the children. The children like to listen to his lectures."
The prince seemed to have been stepped on, and reprimanded loudly: "Are you also here to teach me how to do things? I am doing it for your own good, how can I harm you? The new top scholar is not as knowledgeable as those old Hanlin!"
"
The Crown Princess hurried over to persuade: "Prince, please calm down. I will persuade the child. Boxi, please step back first."
"Mother and concubine..."
The Crown Princess waved her hand at him. The Crown Prince, regardless of his abilities, was extremely stubborn and did not like others to contradict him.
You have to coax him to deal with him. After many years of getting along with the princess, you can see that he is very angry at this time and is the most unreasonable.
Wen Zhao and his grandson retreated. Wen Yao and his wife could not stay any longer, so they said goodbye and left the East Palace.
The Crown Princess is very sorry. She invited someone to be a guest properly, but was disturbed by the Crown Prince.
Wen Yao can understand the hard work of the Crown Princess, but she feels sorry for her. She seems to be noble, but in fact her life is not easy.
Yuan Rui also had a sullen face, and he got angry when he got on the carriage: "The prince is actually such a person. It's so bad. He is in a bad mood and vents his anger on the child. If this kind of person were not the prince, I would have wanted to slap him."
Wen Yao: "Who says it's not the case? Besides, we don't care about the world at all. We are also guests after all. How can the Crown Princess step down? The good atmosphere was completely ruined because of him alone. Living with this kind of person is simply torturous.
If it were me, I wouldn't be as good-tempered as the Crown Princess."
Yuan Rui held her hand and promised: "I will never lose my temper with you, and our children will not treat them so badly in the future."
Wen Yao raised her eyebrows: "That's good now, why don't you write a guarantee letter? If you treat your child badly in the future, I'll show it to you."
"Why not? Just write. I, Yuan Rui, speak every word and nail it every time. If I can say it, I can definitely do it!"
