Chapter 350: Fu Hu
Liu Ruoxi watched Rong Chenghan and the little pig play for a while, so she thought about letting Rong Chenghan put the little pig down, so that she could say a few words to Rong Chenghan first. However, before Liu Ruoxi could speak, she heard a burst of laughter from behind.
Rong Chenghan also heard the laughter, looked in the direction of the laughter, and the smile on his face did not weaken at all, but put the little pig down and hugged it in his arms.
Liu Ruoxi turned around and saw Rong Chengyi.
Rong Chenghan stood by the second gate, still holding Rong Jin in his arms. Looking at him, it seems that he has been standing by the door for a while, but he didn't make a sound until just now.
"Third brother......" Rong Chengyi saw that Rong Chenghan and Liu Ruoxi had seen him, so he stepped forward to greet Rong Chenghan.
"Big brother, big brother is getting better. Why did you pick it up in person? Rong Chenghan hurriedly smiled.
"You and my brother, this is not how it should be." Rong Chengyi smiled. Rong Chenghan participated in the hunt on behalf of Yongjing Palace, which was supposed to be Rong Chengyi's errand. Now that Rong Chenghan has returned, it is time for Rong Chengyi to go out to greet him in person. "Both the father and the mother miss the third brother. β¦β¦ Even if I entered the child, I also wanted to see the third uncle as soon as possible. β
Rong Chengyi said, glancing at Rong Jin in his arms.
Rong Jin originally looked at Rong Chenghan and the little pig with some eyes, especially when he saw Rong Chenghan raise the little pig high, Rong Jin's eyes also widened. Just waited for Rong Chenghan to look in his direction, but Rong Jin was busy and lowered his head. Now when he hears Rong Chengyi talk about him, he seems to be even more worried.
Liu Ruoxi had long discovered that Rong Jin was a very shy and introverted child. Maybe he wasn't born like this, but he was almost chained to a belt by the princess over the years, which created the character he has now.
However, Rongjin is not an obnoxious child. It can be said that the etiquette and rules that Rongjin was taught were very good. It is precisely because of Rongjin that Liu Ruoxi has never been able to completely dislike the princess.
Rongjin has a good nature. Except for being raised too delicately and a little gloomy, he is a good child who has been taught in other aspects. Because of Rongjin, Liu Ruoxi believed the rumors about how beautiful the princess used to be in the past.
Because Rong Jin was raised delicately, don't say that he was thrown high just now like a little pig, even if he was raised high, he was afraid that he had never played it. That's why Rong Jin looked at Rong Chenghan and Little Pig with that kind of eyes just now. That kind of look made Liu Ruoxi, who is a mother, very soft-hearted.
"Jin'er, what did you just say. Why didn't you speak when you saw the third uncle? Rong Chengyi reminded Rong Jindao, and slowly put Rong Jin on the ground.
Rong Jin, who was standing on the ground, seemed to be a little at a loss, he lowered his eyes and looked at the ground, until Rong Chengyi urged again, Rong Jin quickly raised his eyes and glanced at Rong Chenghan and the little pig.
"Brother...... Brother ......" the little pig pointed at Rong Jin with a smile.
Rong Chenghan was slightly stunned, it was the first time he heard the little pig calling his brother, and he was also a little surprised.
Rong Jin seemed to be given great courage by the little pig's smile and this brother, and he saluted Rong Chenghan uprightly.
"Enter...... Jin'er has seen ...... Third uncle. Rong Jin's voice was very low, and his words were still a little stumbling.
But that's up to Rongjin. It's not easy. Rong Chenghan smiled and nodded.
"Okay, the third uncle brought you something good. Let's go to your grandfather together. β
"Hmm." Rong Jin nodded immediately, especially when he heard Rong Chenghan say that he had brought him something good, the child's eyes suddenly lit up.
And the crowd gathered around and entered the second gate.
When Rong Chenghan went to the paddock. Rong Chengyi happened to be sick. Now Rong Chengyi's illness is cured, but he has never been strong/healthy, and on the way back, Rong Jin was carried by the nurse.
The little pig is still in Rong Chenghan's arms. It just so happened that Rong Chenghan was not close enough to his son, and he was willing to hold him.
The little pig not only lay in Rong Chenghan's arms, but also shouted a few more times. Rong Chenghan shouted with red light. Along the way, the little pig also babbled and chatted with Rong Chenghan, and jumped in Rong Chenghan's arms from time to time.
The little pig seems to be hooked on the game of throwing high and lifting high.
No one ever took him to play these two games. You must know that Liu Ruoxi not only does not have this strength, but also treats the little pig more carefully. In this palace, except for his father Rong Chenghan, no one will take him to play this kind of game anymore.
"When I see your grandfather, my father will take you high again." Rong Chenghan could only comfort his son in a low voice, and glanced at Liu Ruoxi proudly.
Don't look at him left these days, but not only did his son not forget him, but when he came back, his son was so close to him, and even left his own mother behind. Of course, Rong Chenghan was a little proud.
Liu Ruoxi had to snort in her throat. He is too naΓ―ve to be as knowledgeable as this father and son.
When I arrived at Chunhui Hall, it was naturally lively again. The old prince was very happy to see Rong Chenghan come back. When everyone saw each other, Rong Chenghan asked people to bring up the prey they had hunted, as well as all the emperor's rewards, and asked the old prince to pick them up.
Rong Chenghan's harvest in the paddock this year is a little richer than last year. The old prince nodded straight at it, he only picked two random things for himself and the Su family, and he didn't pick them
"Father, this fox skin was hunted by me especially for my father. The weather was cold, so I just made a close-fitting jacket for my father. Rong Chenghan picked out a gray fox skin from the box and presented it to the old prince.
The fox fur was thick and smooth, and there was no trace of variegation, and the old prince was very satisfied when he saw it, but he refused to accept it himself.
"I don't need this." The old prince looked at the fox skin, and then looked at the little pig sitting in his arms at the moment, and smiled, "Looking at the size, it just so happens that you can make a cloak for the little pig." β
"The little pig is still young, and her mother will find the right one for him. This one was accepted by my father. Rong Chenghan said.
Seeing that Rong Chenghan was so filial, the old prince thought about it, so he didn't shirk it anymore, only let people take the fur, but he ordered someone to measure the size of the little pig, and he still wanted to make a cloak for the little piglet.
If the old prince is like this, Rong Chenghan and Liu Ruoxi will not be able to stop it anymore.
"Your father and son will also pick two." The old prince picked it himself, so he motioned for Rong Chengyi and Rong to go in and pick.
Rong Chengyi did not shirk, he picked two furs, and also chose two pots of jade bonsai rewarded by the emperor.
"I look at this well, and I have to let the third brother cut his love. I only love this magnolia, and the third brother wants jade bonsai. I still have a few pots there, so I'll pick them up with my third brother. Rong Chengyi said to Rong Chenghan.
"It's all big brother." Rong Chenghan said very happily.
"Pick two more to make a dress with your two nieces and nephews." After Rong Chengyi finished picking, the old prince said again.
Of course, Rong Chengxiang didn't dare to pick things in the box, and the old prince didn't even let Rong Chenghan take things to Rong Chengxiang, only said to Rong Chengxiang's two children. Waiting for everyone to pick out the things, the old prince asked Rong Chenghan to dispose of all the remaining items by himself. Rong Chenghan didn't refuse, so he asked people to carry down several boxes.
"There are still some things...... Rong Chenghan beckoned, and a few small servants lifted or hugged a few iron cages up.
When the iron cage was moved in, the room was almost stunned.
The little pig screamed happily, although Rong Jin did not make a sound. But it's also a look of excitement. In several cages, there were live creatures, including two small sika deer, a snow-white rabbit, and a ferret. But what everyone in the room is looking at is the largest cage.
"This ...... Third, you caught a tiger and came back?! The old prince was the first to speak.
"Yes, father, it's also a coincidence......," Rong Chenghan laughed and talked about the experience of catching tigers alive.
Inside the big iron cage. It's been a white-eyed ...... Tiger cubs. This tiger cub is not big, and its body is only about two feet, and it is fat and fat, lying in a cage. It's like a lazy big good kitten.
The little pig obviously regarded the little tiger as a cat, and he pointed it with his little finger, while telling the old prince "pig...... Father, cat...... Cat ......"
The little pig's fairy tale amused the old prince.
"Hello. That's not a cat. That's a tiger. β
"Whew...... Tiger? The little pig looked at the old prince, and then at the little tiger.
"That's right, it's a tiger." The old prince laughed more and more.
Rong Chenghan accompanied the emperor on the hunt this time. Caught a big tiger and three small tigers. The big tiger and the other two little tigers have been brought back to the imperial garden by the emperor to raise, because Rong Chenghan is the first to take credit, this one was awarded to Rong Chenghan.
Hunting tigers during the hunt is something that the old prince has never encountered.
The little pig was in the arms of the old prince, so he stretched out his hand and said that he wanted a tiger. The old prince knew in his heart that Rong Chenghan took the risk of hunting the tiger back, and he didn't have the idea of bringing the tiger back to show the little piglet.
"Since it's now, let's keep it." The old prince said, while instructing Rong Chenghan, "Arrange someone to take care of it." It's still small, but it's a beast of prey. β
"If you don't bring it, don't let Jin'er and Ti'er get close to this cage." The old prince commanded again.
Of course, Rong Chenghan knew that it was powerful, so he agreed to it, and arranged for someone to move the cage to the back garden.
The remaining few cages of small things are all gentle and harmless. The little pig hugged a little sika deer and refused to let go, and finally Liu Ruoxi persuaded her to simply raise the two sika deer in Yunshuiju.
There were also some snow rabbits and ferrets, and the little pig pounced on a snow rabbit and stuffed it into Rongjin.
Rong Jin was stunned at first, and then hugged the snow rabbit and refused to let go.
Everyone was rejoicing, and suddenly someone outside came in to report that the emperor had sent someone and sent a reward. From the old prince down, everyone was surprised and delighted. What is surprising is that the emperor has already given a rich reward for this hunt, why did he come back for a while, and then he was rewarded again. Happily, this heavy reward all shows the grace of Yongjing Palace.
The old prince led everyone to the front to receive the order.
This time, the reward sent by the emperor was very simple, only a plaque.
ββ¦β¦ Long live the Lord returned to the palace, remembering the divine power of Wu Yang Hou Ye when he caught the tiger, and on a whim, he wrote these two words. Immediately let the slaves and maids frame it and give it to Wuyang Houye......" The old eunuch who came to deliver the decree read the holy decree, and then sat down, drinking tea and saying in a sharp voice.
The old prince looked at the two big characters on the plaque, and his eyes were burning.
The emperor gave Rong Chenghan two words, which were concise and to the point, which was for "Fuhu".
sent away the old eunuch who delivered the decree, and the plaque of Fuhu was hung in the middle hall of Yunshuiju. The emperor's grace was immense, and the old prince took Rong Chenghan, Rong Chengyi and Rong Chengxiang to the palace to thank him.
When Rong Chenghan came back from the palace again, it was almost evening, and a family banquet was arranged in the palace, and the banquet was dispersed. Rong Chenghan and Liu Ruoxi returned to Yunshuiju, and the young couple had time to whisper.
"The little pig will call Daddy." Whether it was catching the tiger or being given a plaque of the tiger, it seemed that there was no such thing that made Rong Chenghan proud and happy.
"You're gone, and for the first few days the little piglets cried and looked for you. Later, it was easy to coax. These days, you're always talking to me. Otherwise, how do you learn to call daddy? Liu Ruoxi concealed what she taught the little pig, and only said how the little pig missed Rong Chenghan.
Liu Ruoxi's words made Rong Chenghan even happier.
"It's just that you spoil the little pig like this. Father seems to be a little ......"
Rong Chenghan spoiled the little pig, although the old prince didn't say anything, but he vaguely seemed to have some disagreeing meaning.
"It doesn't matter." Rong Chenghan didn't take it to heart, "My father himself is not very favored." Father just didn't treat us like this, and now he looks at me like this to the little pig, he is a little ...... Don't fit in. β
"When the little pig is older, I will naturally not relax." pamper your son, and teach your son strictly to become a talent. In Rong Chenghan's view, these two things do not conflict.
"The little pig will call me brother." Rong Chenghan asked Liu Ruoxi again, "Sister-in-law is actually relieved to play with the little pig." β
"There's no way, this time my father slapped his face. My sister-in-law cried twice to no avail. I think she understood. This is good for Jin'er. Liu Ruoxi said. Moreover, Rong Jin is not in front of the princess, but in front of the old prince. The princess has to worry about this, and she doesn't have to live in this palace.
"Father's heart ......" Rong Chenghan's gaze narrowed a little farther away. Said in a deep voice.
"yes." Liu Ruoxi nodded. The old prince's intentions can not be described as bad and bitter.
"I've worked hard for you these days." Rong Chenghan asked a few questions, his eyes became softer and softer, and he looked at Liu Ruoxi. He said in a low voice.
"What do you say it's hard, it's just...... I'm just worried about you. Liu Ruoxi looked away slightly.
Rong Chenghan stretched out his hand to caress Liu Ruoxi's cheek and asked Liu Ruoxi to look at herself. The two looked at each other, and the thoughts and feelings they had been missing these days no longer needed to be expressed in words.
ββ¦β¦ Let's rest early......" Rong Chenghan's voice was a little hoarse.
Liu Ruoxi's face was slightly red, and she laughed lowly.
The next day, Liu Ruoxi got up from the couch a little lazily, and Rong Chenghan had already gone to the small school to practice arrows and came back.
"It's still early, get some more sleep." Rong Chenghan wiped his face with a wet handkerchief, and sat on the couch next to Liu Ruoxi.
Liu Ruoxi pushed Rong Chenghan angrily.
"It's too early, I'm going to go to the council chamber. If I'm late today, I don't know how the people below laugh at me behind my back. β
"Hey, hey." Rong Chenghan laughed twice, very proud.
"It's all your fault. You go to sleep in the study today! Liu Ruoxi glanced at Rong Chenghan.
Rong Chenghan smiled and said nothing, only stretched out his arm to wrap his arms around Liu Ruoxi's waist, and naturally received a roll of Liu Ruoxi's eyes.
Liu Ruoxi pushed Rong Chenghan away, and while tidying up, she took people to Chunhui Hall. Because she was thinking about Rong Chenghan and Little Piggy, Liu Ruoxi quickly took care of her family affairs and returned to Yunshuiju. Rong Chenghan was not in the upper room.
"Hou Ye took the prince to see the sika deer." The little girl reported to Liu Ruoxi.
It turned out that the little pig also got up. Liu Ruoxi led people through the moon gate to the back, and sure enough, she saw Rong Chenghan holding the little pig standing at the foot of the rockery, and two little sika deer surrounded Rong Chenghan's feet. Father and son are feeding the baby sika deer. In the distance, the laughter of the little pigs can be heard.
Liu Ruoxi did not rush forward, but stopped and took a deep breath.
In the late autumn morning, the air is fresh and slightly cold, but it is full of the smell of happiness. In order to protect this happiness, Liu Ruoxi can do anything.
"Niang......" didn't wait for Liu Ruoxi to get close, and the little piglet found her.
"Hey." Liu Ruoxi agreed with a smile, walked over and took the little pig from Rong Chenghan's arms.
The little girl was busy laying a thick brocade mattress on the stone pier next to her, and Liu Ruoxi sat down on the brocade mattress with the little pig in her arms. Two little sika deer came around, and the little pig stretched out his chubby little hand to touch the little sika deer. The little sika deer has a docile temperament, and has to eat, and does not dislike the touch of the little pig at all, and looks very well-behaved. The little pig was encouraged and hugged the sika deer's neck almost entirely.
The couple took the little pig to play in the backyard for a while, and then came back for dinner.
After the meal, Rong Chenghan talked to Liu Ruoxi about family affairs again.
"When did the Seventh Sister come?" Rong Chenghan asked Liu Ruoxi.
When Rong Chenghan came back yesterday, Su Qingnuan was extremely low-key and did not go to Chunhui Hall to greet him, and later when he was eating, Rong Chengnan saw Su Qingnuan. Rong Chenghan just came back, there were many important things, and he couldn't finish talking to Liu Ruoxi, and he couldn't finish talking about his love, so he left Su Qingnuan behind. Now that he really has leisure, Rong Chenghan asked.
Rong Chenghan asked about Su Qingnuan, because he was worried that Su Qingnuan would make trouble for Liu Ruonan again.
"It's been a few days," Liu Ruoxi told Rong Chenghan, "every day is either at the mother's concubine's or the princess's place, but it's just a dowry." β
"It seems that she suddenly figured it out, or changed sex, I hope she is not cheating." Liu Ruoxi said again.
"Have you ever spoken ill of you in front of your mother, or made trouble for you?" Rong Chenghan asked.
"Not really." Liu Ruoxi told the truth. Liu Ruoxi said that Su Qingnuan changed her sex, mainly because of this. Su Qingnuan became extremely aware of current affairs, not only did she not stir up the wind and rain anymore, but she was also very avoidant of suspicion, and she did not come to Liu Ruoxi's side, let alone the clouds and water in the middle. (To be continued......)
