Chapter 318: Healing
Chen Afu came to the door of Zhuxuan, the sedan chair also arrived, and Princess Rui led a three- or four-year-old boy out of the sedan chair. The little boy looks very much like Lord Rui, but his face is pale and he doesn't have much energy, and he looks like a healthy child.
Chen Afu stepped forward to bless the blessing and said with a smile, "When the distinguished guest comes, it is far away." ”
Princess Rui said with a smile, "I came early in the morning to take the liberty of disturbing and made Grandma Chu laugh." He bowed his head and said to the little boy, "Xuan'er, call your aunt quickly." ”
Li Xuan listened to Princess Rui's words, raised his head and called Chen Afu Dao, "Auntie, aunt." ”
He spoke very slowly, his eyes were clear, there was no joy or sorrow, and he was as clear as a newborn baby.
Chen Afu knew that this child's intelligence had some problems, but it was much better than Chu Hanyan at the beginning. King Rui and his wife showed favor to them, perhaps because they saw that the legendary Chu Hanyan had become smarter, and hoped that they would help this child, right?
Chu Lingxuan told Chen Afu more than once that he wanted to be good friends with Princess Rui. Although he didn't say it explicitly, Chen Afu guessed that the Chu family might also have asked for King Rui or Princess Rui.
After dealing with Little Miss Chu for so long, Chen Afu naturally knows how to get along with this kind of child. And such a young child has become like this, and eighty percent is a victim of Gong Dou. Her heart was extremely soft, and she squatted down and put a thumb-sized small horse jade pendant in the palm of her hand, which was the meeting gift she was going to give to Li Xuan.
She smiled at Li Xuan and said, "Xuan'er, look at this pony......" Her two hands were closed and rubbed twice, and then she spread out her hands, the jade pendant in her hand was gone, and she said, "Hey, it's gone." ”
There was a hint of change in Li Xuan's eyes, and he wondered, "Pony, go, go, where did you go?"
Chen Afu picked her up and smiled, "Let's go, Auntie will take you to find the pony." ”
Princess Rui was still a little stunned, this son didn't want anyone except her and the nurse, but now he was taken away by Chen Afu, who met for the first time. Perhaps, this time the temple gate has been found.
They came to the east side room and invited Princess Rui to sit on the kang and the girl to have tea.
Chen Afu also sat on the kang, sat on his lap with Li Xuan, rubbed his hands again, spread out, and the pony pendant appeared in his palm again, and said with a smile, "Ah, it's back again." ”
Li Xuan laughed out loud.
Chen Afu put the pony into his little hand and said, "This pony who can hide cats and cats will be given to Xuan'er." ”
Li Xuan played with the pony.
Chen Afu asked the girl to take out the remaining few egg tarts to entertain the guests. Li Xuan was immediately attracted by the egg tart again, and ate two pieces in a row.
Chen Afu saw that Princess Rui seemed to have something to say, so he asked his subordinates to retreat.
Princess Rui said the reason, "I'm not afraid of your jokes, this is the ugly thing in our palace......"
King Rui has many women, but there are not many heirs. I am twenty-seven years old this year, only two sons, and I don't have a daughter. The eldest son is Li Chao, who was born to Concubine Jiang, and is eleven years old. The second son is this Li Xuan, who is four years old this year.
When Li Xuan was two years old, the Seven Princes had not yet been crowned King Rui, and they were still living in the palace, and Li Xuan suddenly became stupid one night.
After investigation, it was found out whether he was frightened by a little eunuch pretending to be a ghost, or he was the mastermind behind Concubine Jiang. Because the Seventh Emperor Concubine had never been pregnant before, the imperial doctor said that the Seven Princes favored women too early and too often, and the injuries were fundamental, and it was not easy to have a queen. Concubine Jiang felt that her son would definitely be the only son of the Seventh Prince and inherit everything from him in the future. But who knew that when Li Chao was seven years old, the Seventh Emperor Concubine actually gave birth to another son.
Concubine Jiang was afraid that her son's position would be robbed, so she bought the little eunuch.
After the investigation was clear, the Seventh Prince was furious and killed Concubine Jiang. But I am afraid that Li Xuan's illness will not be cured, and Li Chao will be his only normal child, and his title will still be passed on to him in the future. He was afraid of the revenge of the Seventh Imperial Princess, so he sent Li Chao to his mother, Concubine Zhou De, who is still there......
After many treatments, Li Xuan has gotten much better, but compared to normal children, he is still stupid and thinner. The child has been like this, and he will definitely not inherit the title of King Rui.
Of course, Princess Rui was unwilling to cheapen Concubine Jiang's son, so she kept finding various ways to treat the child, but with little success.
She wiped her tears and said, "I heard my grandfather say that you are especially good at taking care of children, even the eldest sister of the Chu family is so stupid...... Oh, such a serious illness is cured, my Xuan'er ......" she gritted her teeth and said again, "Grandma Chu will take it to your house, how you bring the eldest sister of the Chu family, you can take Xuan'er." Please. Then, he looked at Chen Afu with full expectation.
Chen Afu was a little embarrassed, where did she dare to take this child to Tangyuan. Not to mention that he is Princess Rui's precious egg, there is a big treasure there that she can't wait to hide in the cellar. She thought about it, this child was not congenitally mentally retarded, it was much better than the situation of Little Miss Chu at that time, if the medicine was corrected properly, it should be cured.
She whispered, "I have a secret recipe, and I heard that green leaf agarwood is helpful for this disease." At that time, by chance, I got one and gave it to Yan'er. I was reluctant to light it first, so I took it out little by little and gave it to her to smell, and then lit it when there was no smell. Saving use, a stick of incense has been used for more than two months. Of course, I still have to continue to take the doctor's medicine......"
She is not lying, the green leaf agarwood contains the leaves of the swallow agarwood tree, and the little girl Chu just smelled the fragrance of the leaves every night, coupled with her own correct guidance, and came out of her own world.
She also talked about how to enter the inner world of children, how to make friends with children, and so on. But she didn't dare to give the green leaf agarwood to Princess Rui again, and she didn't dare to say that she was familiar with Master Wuzhi.
Princess Rui cried with joy when she heard this, and said hopefully, "I know that the emperor and the queen mother have green leaves and agarwood in their hands, and I asked my prince to ask for one." ”
Chen Afu said again, "I heard that the Queen Mother gave my third aunt one, I went to ask her, if she is still useless, I will be cheeky to ask her for it." ”
Mrs. Chu San first gave the green leaf agarwood that Chen Afu gave her to the Queen Mother. Later, Master Wuzhi gave the emperor a few, and the emperor honored the queen mother with three roots, and the queen mother returned the previous one to the third lady.
First ask the third lady to come over as a favor, and then she will give the third lady Chu another one.
Princess Rui was even more grateful to Chen Afu, took her hand and said, "Thank you, Grandma Chu." If my Xuan'er's illness can be completely cured, I will let him recognize you as his mother-in-law. No, admit it today, and I will take him to your house to play in the future, and I will also go to relatives. ”
Chen Afu hurriedly refused, "Thank you, princess, for looking up to me, the second son is a royal bloodline, how dare I trust this big." ”
Just kidding, how could it be that both uncle and nephew recognized her as their mother-in-law.
