After Princess Yao took Yao Xuan back to the courtyard, she took a nap and rested first. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the afternoon, Princess Yao was in the front hall, and Yao Xuan accompanied Xiaokang to play in the west room, and it was not until it was time for dinner that the next person reported that the prince and the fourth prince had returned to the house and had gone to Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu is used to treating different grandsons, Gong Zhe and Gong Yu are both studying in the palace now, and they will go to Concubine Shu every day when they return to the house to talk.
And because of the precedent of Concubine Shu, Princess Yao disdained to take advantage of those concubines' children to establish prestige, so she also asked them to come to greet her on Monday and Friday, and then everyone sat down and went to the concubine together, so after the brothers came out of Concubine Shu, Shi Gongzhen went to his residence in the front yard to eat by herself, and Gong Yu went back to Princess Yao's Rongjiatang.
Yao Xuan and Gong Yu, the two cousins, have actually been seen often in the past year, Princess Yao herself can't always run to her mother's house, so she lets her already sensible son run errands, the study in the palace is two days off at the end of every decade, that is, ten days off for two days, Gong Yu goes to the Hou Mansion two or three times a month, so there is not so much politeness when they meet again at this time, and the brother and sister get together and talk when they see the ceremony.
"It's a pity that I couldn't pass my uncle's birthday yesterday, my sister must stay a few more days this time, and when I go back together after the holiday, I want to kowtow to my uncle in person." Gong Yu pulled Yao Xuan's sleeve and sat with her, smiling close and bright, not even minding revealing the teeth he had lost due to tooth replacement.
The little flower man is white and delicate, and his temperament is clean and noble, so it is no wonder that the elders in and outside the palace are very fond of him.
"It's a good thing to travel with a saint." Yao Xuan resisted the urge to rub the face of the little beautiful man, and also smiled at Gong Yu, "Although my brother didn't arrive, he also wrote the word Baishou by himself, and my father liked it, so I let everyone hang it directly in the outer study after passing it on." ”
Yao Hou and his wife have always treated Gong Yu as a son, and the teaching of the two children is also to let them be brothers and sisters.
As for writing a hundred longevity pictures or something, it is now a common way to celebrate the birthday of close sons and nephews, but in terms of Gong Yu's identity and age, his birthday gift is still very long for Yao Houye.
"Really? It's good that I didn't embarrass my uncle. Although Gong Yu knew that in terms of his own identity, most of them must be praise, but those longevity words were indeed written seriously by him and passed the eyes of his mother.
Each type of longevity word has been written more than a dozen times, before picking out the best spelling into a hundred longevity diagrams, Gong Yu of course still hopes to be recognized by everyone.
"My brother writes well, how can he be embarrassed." Yao Xuan looked at the little beautiful man's little appearance that she wanted to be reserved and couldn't help but be complacent, and praised it with a smile, "Everyone praises you, Daddy is happy." ”
"That's good." Gong Yu was a little embarrassed to be said, and after touching Yao Xuan's bun, she changed the topic and told her about what she had seen outside, "Yesterday, Uncle Huang took us to the suburbs to see the crops, and the growth is good......"
Yao Xuan has really never seen the life of ordinary people in her life, at most it is a festival like the Shangyuan Festival, and she can be carried out of the gate of the Hou Mansion by Yao's father to see the excitement on the nearby streets, so she also listened to Gong Yu's narration with some interest at this time, and asked a few words that should be asked.
Princess Yao was sitting on the other side coaxing her little son to sleep, turning her head from time to time to look at the pair of children who got along well, with warmth between her eyebrows and eyes.
However, seeing that when the meal was approaching, the prince who originally said that he was having dinner here was still nowhere to be seen, and Princess Yao knew which beauty this eighty percent was coaxed by again.
Although Princess Yao didn't care in her heart, she still had to do what she wanted, so she sent someone to the front yard to ask.
Sure enough, after a while, Yin En, the big eunuch beside Prince Jinshun, came over in person, respectfully laughed with Princess Yao, and said that the third prince read well today, and the prince was happy, so he took the third prince to Concubine Qian's dinner just now.
Then he said that the prince knew that he had broken his promise, so he would accompany the princess first, and asked him to bring the gift to the cousin, and when the prince came over for dinner tomorrow morning, he would give the cousin another apology.
"The prince said this, but it was a pain in Xuan'er, Xuan'er should have gone to see his uncle, but he thought that the prince would come in the evening, so he didn't let the little girl go to the front yard to run this one more trip." Princess Yao shook her head with a funny face, and after signaling Yao Xuan to accept the gift, she asked the palace maid to serve tea to the young Yin Engong.
"Thank you." Yin En bowed and took the tea behind him, and as soon as he touched the cup, he knew that he had deliberately adjusted the temperature of the tea that could be drunk directly, rather than making it look like it was just brewed, and he secretly praised Princess Yao in his heart for her meticulousness and properness.
Yin En drank most of the cup of tea for the sake of face, handed back the cup and wiped the water on his lips with a handkerchief, and then continued to bow down and reply: "The prince has already asked the slave and maid to prepare, and the cousin likes it, so don't shirk it." ”
"Okay, this concubine will thank the prince for her cousin." Princess Yao smiled again when she heard this, and first asked the palace maid to go to the big kitchen to add four dishes to Concubine Qian's side, and then rewarded Yin En with a purse before letting him go back to his life.
How could Princess Yao really refuse the good things that were white, naturally she just accepted them politely.
Although he vaguely understood that his mother didn't care much about his father, he knew that his cousin was a guest today, and Concubine Qian also made such a fuss, obviously to save her mother's face, of course Gong Yu couldn't be happy.
As for his father's side...... Gong Yu really didn't know how to say it, he was afraid that he didn't realize what was wrong with him, or he didn't care at all.
Gong Yu has been sternly admonished and taught by his mother since he was a child, and his father must be obedient, coaxed, not rebellious, and not resentful, because when his father is willing to spoil a person, he can hold you up to the sky, and ask the stars not to give the moon, and after feeling or bored, you can also throw it aside casually, even if you are stepped on in the mud by others, his father will not look at it again.
And other people's emotions have never had anything to do with his father, his father only cares whether he is happy or not, whether he likes it or not, so before his mother says that he is not really strong, he should not openly go against the will of that person.
Gong Yu deeply believes in the words of his mother, because the former princess and the eldest sister and the younger brother of the prince are all examples of Ming Huanghuang.
Yao Xuan didn't know that Gong Yu had so much thought in his heart, she just thought that he was unhappy about the prince's failure to make an appointment, so she smiled and coaxed him to say that he was just a day late, but he could get a lot of gifts, and she still earned it.
And Gong Yu's mood was only for a while, and he quickly reined in, followed Yao Xuan's words and made a few jokes with his mother, and then the three of them happily had dinner together, Gong Yu went back to the residence in the front yard, and the princess and Yao Xuan also went back to their rooms to rest.
