Concubine Shan Xian nodded with satisfaction, and said with red circles in her eyes, "Yes." At the beginning, those two people were in charge, if Xiao Eleven was in the palace, it would be another matter if he could survive or not. Although the mother's eyes are about to cry blind, Xiao Shiyi is alive and can live happily, which is more important than anything else. ”

Xiao Eleven was moved by Concubine Shan Xian's words, and felt that this mother loved her as much as her mother outside the palace. He said, "Mother, I will accompany you in the future and make you happy all the time." I won't let you cry anymore, always be happy, and smile often......" He stayed with Chen Afu for a long time, and the sweet words came as soon as he opened his mouth.

Concubine Shan Xian was overjoyed when she heard this. She held his face again and smiled, "Good boy, you have filial piety, and your mouth is sweet, your elders in the past taught you well." ”

The prince was very satisfied with the fact that their mother and son were getting along happily. said to Little Eleven, "Brother Eleven, you may not be used to entering the palace just now, but you will be fine slowly." Father said that you will accompany your mother and concubine in Siyuan Palace to relieve boredom in the past few days, and you will go to Cining Palace to greet the imperial grandmother and her old man, and then go to study in the imperial study three days later. Li Xuan is also here, you are familiar with it. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "The palace is not as good as the people, and the relationships and interests are complicated. Although the situation is much better now than in the past, it is still necessary to be careful in everything......"

Although Xiao Eleven grew up in the people, his previous growth environment was not good, and he was always thinking about how not to be sold, how to be a son to his mother forever. After that, life was better, and he was afraid that Daddy Chu would take away his mother's love, and he was always thinking about how to keep his mother's love and how to make his life better in the Chu family. Therefore, in terms of scheming, he is not much simpler than the children who grew up in the palace, but he has less dark and harmful calculations.

He listened to the prince's words, and stood up respectfully. For this prince brother who is about the same age as Daddy Chu, he is both respectful and afraid in his heart.

At that time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Concubine Xian Niangniang gave ten carts of gifts to the young lady Chu and her mother to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, including brocade, ornaments, jewelry, medicinal materials, etc.

The next day, Chu Lingxuan hurriedly returned to Dingzhou Mansion with five carts of gifts.

Chen Afu took his four children to live in the Yong'an Hou Mansion. The third lady also wanted to hand over the middle feed in the house to Chen Afu, but Chen Afu was coquettish, saying that he was breastfeeding himself and was not very familiar with the capital. Wait another half a year, Xiao Yu'er will grow up, and she will be familiar with the environment, so she will take it again.

On the afternoon of the twentieth day of the first lunar month, Concubine Xian Niangniang sent the maid He Gonggong to pass the word, inviting Chen Afu's mother and son to go to the palace tomorrow for a gathering, and then bring Qiqi and Ash with them.

Early in the morning of the 21st, Chen Afu cleaned up by himself, and then packed up the four children, Qiqi and Ash, and entered the palace together.

When Chu Hanyan and the little brother heard that they were going to see His Highness Eleven, they were so excited.

Chen Afu repeatedly emphasized that when he saw his original brother, he should call His Royal Highness, and he must not call him brother again. Although Little Miss Chu resisted this title in her heart, she still nodded in agreement.

But the little brothers didn't listen to the greeting, and shouted, "It's the elder brother, not the palace." It's the elder brother, not the palace. ”

Chen Afu took their little hands and slapped them twice, and scolded, "If you dare to shout, not only will your mother and sister ignore you, but you will not be allowed to see Xiao Yu'er." ”

The little brothers are not afraid of heaven and earth, but they are afraid that they will not be allowed to see their sister. Hearing this, he had to pout and agree, "Okay, okay." ”

Chen Afu carried Qiqi and Ash and said that when he saw that Dabao could not be called Dabao, he had to call His Highness. Before this, Xia Yue began to teach these two birds to shout "Niangniang, Your Highness". They're smart, and it didn't take long to learn these two titles. But when they heard that they called Dabao His Royal Highness, they didn't want to, and shouted straight out of their mouths, "Stinky Dabao, Stinky Dabao......"

They are birds, and there is no way to disobey Chen Afu.

The carriage arrived at the palace gate, got off, and took a sedan chair to Siyuan Palace.

Chen Afu and several people came to Siyuan Palace to get off the sedan chair and were led into the main hall by the eunuchs.

There was a strong smell of sandalwood in the hall, and a woman with palace makeup sat on the Luohan bed. The woman was in her forties, and she was kind and good-looking, and her eyebrows were clear. Her palace makeup is half new, and she doesn't wear much makeup. This is Concubine Shan Xian.

If she wasn't wearing palace makeup, she would have thought she was an ordinary woman. She had to keep a low profile for more than ten years before the prince's accident, and after giving birth to Xiao Eleven, she was like ashes, even if her son is now the prince, she is not willing to be high-profile, or proud.

With a strong brother and a compassionate mother, Xiao Eleven's life in the palace should not be sad. Chen Afu thought to himself.

On the right side of Concubine Shan Xian sat Xiao Eleven, who was dressed in a python robe, and he had already stood up excitedly. The mouth opened, but he still didn't call out "mother".

The next one sat a beautiful little girl, it should be the sixth princess Li Cheng.

On the left sat three beauties, with gorgeous palace makeup and full of pearls. They should be the crown princess Zhang, Liangdi Yang, and Liangyuan Huang.

When the little girl Chu saw her brother who she hadn't seen for a few days, she sucked in her little nose, and felt like crying, but she still stood beside her mother obediently. Brother Yu and Brother Ming couldn't manage it so much, and they wanted to rush forward excitedly, but they were pulled tightly by Chen Afu one by one.

Brother Yu shouted, "Brother." ”

Brother Ming corrected, "No, it's a palace." ”

Brother Yu hurriedly corrected, "Oh, it's the palace, not the elder brother." ”

The little brothers' fairy tales provoked a few coquettish laughter, and even Little Eleven pursed his lips and laughed.

Chen Afu, Chu Hanyan, the little brothers, and the mother who was holding Xiao Yu'er knelt down and kowtowed to Concubine Shan Xian and said, "I've seen Concubine Xian." ”

Concubine Shan Xian got up and personally helped Chen Afu up, and said with a smile, "Young Mrs. Chu, please get up quickly." He took her hand again and said, "You have brought Little Eleven well and taught her well, thank you." Thank you again for this palace, mother. ”

Chen Afu smiled modestly, "His Highness Eleventh is talented, well-behaved and sensible, and anyone likes it." ”

Concubine Shan Xian looked at a few more children and said with a smile, "These brothers, sisters, all of them are handsome and cute." ”

The palace maid behind her gave several children a jade ruyi each.

and gave the crown princess, the prince Liangdi, and the prince Liangyuan in turn. There is no need to kowtow to them, Chen Afu and Little Miss Chu make a blessing ceremony, and the little brothers make a gesture.

They also smiled and thanked Chen Afu, praised the child a few more words, and gave a meeting gift.

Then he turned to Little Eleven.

Xiao Shiyi saw that his mother bent his knees to him, and his eyes were red, but he still held back the tears that were about to well. Within a few days of coming to the palace, what he saw with his eyes and heard with his ears was at most etiquette, and he couldn't go beyond the rules. I can't provoke my mother and sister and brother.

When his mother saluted him, he bowed slightly and shouted softly, "Chu, Young Lady Chu." ”
