Chapter 107: Persistence

Qin Xuan grinned in Ji Xiaotang's arms, he seemed to hear everyone talking, so he shouted "oh" and "oh" twice, and it sounded as if he was responding.

Such a little guy, no matter what kind of action he makes, or what kind of sound he makes, is very cute in the eyes of people. Zheng Gui immediately praised Qin Xuan for being smart.

In fact, this kind of praise is not an exaggeration. After all, the more a child is so young, the more he reacts to the outside world, the more deaf and clear-sighted he is, isn't that smart.

Ji Xiaotang himself thinks that his son is a very healthy and smart little guy.

"It's a pity that I didn't see Yu'er when she was so old, she must be as cute as Xuan'er." Holding Qin Xuan, Ji Xiaotang turned the topic to Qin Yu.

Zheng Gui glanced at Qin Yu, but sighed.

Ji Xiaotang didn't ask, but waited quietly, she knew that Zheng Gui must have something to say.

"If Yu'er was as healthy and lively as Xuan'er at that time, why did the prince and I have to so much!" Zheng Gui said with a sigh.

"What, Yu'er was not in good health when she was born?" Ji Xiaotang asked with concern.

"It's all me, a mother, who has no ability......" Zheng Gui raised his arm and took Qin Yu to his side, his tone was low and gentle, and his eyes showed a faint sadness.

"Why did Sister Gui say that." Ji Xiaotang immediately said, "In my opinion, Sister Gui protects Yu'er very well and takes good care of her. ”

Zheng Gui's gaze lifted from Qin Yu and looked at Ji Xiaotang. Her smile was sad.

In Ji Xiaotang's impression, Zheng Gui has always been luxurious, enthusiastic, and smiling. It seems that this kind of feeling of sadness should not appear in Zheng Gui's body.

"When I first married the prince. It's not like that......" Zheng Gui told Ji Xiaotang that when she first married into the Su Wangfu, she was still a young girl, and she was careful to be a little daughter-in-law in front of the Empress Dowager Han.

Her body was originally very good, and her body did not have much impact after she became pregnant with Qin Yu.

"At that time, the Queen Mother was very concerned about me and asked me to go into the palace. Either reward me with something, or tell me how to ......" However, the result of Empress Dowager Han's concern was that Zheng Gui's body was getting worse and worse.

"Once. I almost couldn't save Yu'er, but the prince was in a hurry, and later invited a famous doctor from the outside to save my life and Yu'er's. "And since then. Zheng Guihuai ~ never entered the palace again during pregnancy.

And after giving birth to Qin Yu. Qin Lin and Zheng Gui had never brought Qin Yu to the Empress Dowager Han.

It was also because of those things that happened during pregnancy~ pregnancy, Qin Yu's body was very weak when he was born.

"Sometimes crying all night makes my heart break. I didn't worry about the nurse taking care of Yu'er, so I took care of him myself. At that time, I was still doing confinement, and as long as Yu'er was slightly alarmed, I would wake up immediately. Once, I held him and didn't close my eyes all night. That time. The prince is also like me, and the people who boiled it have lost weight. ”

Qin Yu is now completely a healthy child. It is the result of Qin Lin and Zheng Gui sparing no expense over the years, exhausting all parties to seek medical advice and medicine, and careful conditioning.

Therefore, Qin Lin and Zheng Gui said that Qin Yu's health is not good, which is not an empty excuse.

This also explains why every time they say such an excuse, although Empress Dowager Han is dissatisfied, she is also a little helpless.

Ji Xiaotang listened to Zheng Gui's words, and couldn't help but be speechless for a while, but at the same time, he hugged Qin Xuan tighter.

Zheng Gui has also revealed bit by bit in the past, but today is the first time to tell the whole truth. Zheng Gui was able to tell the whole truth, naturally because Ji Xiaotang had now given birth to Qin Xuan.

"Xiaotang, that's why I said, I envy you." Zheng Gui looked at Ji Xiaotang with extremely sincere eyes.

Ji Xiaotang smiled and shook his head.

Empress Dowager Han did not do anything during her pregnancy~ pregnancy, on the one hand, because of Qin Yu's existence, on the other hand, she made a false gesture and did enough in front of Empress Dowager Han.

However, the fact that Empress Dowager Han did not do it before does not mean that she will not do it in the future.

On this issue, she and Zheng Gui do have a lot of common topics to talk about.

"I admire Sister Gui very much, and in the future, I will have to study like Sister Gui." Ji Xiaotang said slowly.

Zheng Gui smiled.

"It's not that hard, you just have to ignore her. Don't believe anything she says. Even if she tears her face, in today's situation, she can't do anything to you. There really is something, and the prince and me. …… Tear your face, and everything will be easier in the future! ”

Zheng Gui asked Ji Xiaotang to see her example.

"So, I still have a lot to learn from Sister Gui." Ji Xiaotang said.

Zheng Gui's gaze at Ji Xiaotang was a little deeper and more complicated.

"Sister Xiaotang, you are really ......, it is my sister who wants to admire you."

Immediately, both of them tacitly changed the topic. Zheng Gui had personally taken care of Qin Yu, so she really had a lot of experience in how to take care of small babies.

Although Mrs. Ji also had these experiences, Ji Xiaotang still asked Zheng Gui for advice very carefully and humbly.

When the two concubines were talking like this, Qin Xuan was tired, yawned a little in Ji Xiaotang's arms, and closed his eyes full.

Zheng Gui and Ji Xiaotang both immediately lowered their voices.

It wasn't until Qin Xuan fell asleep that Ji Xiaotang asked the nurse to carry him to another room.

Qin Yu's gaze followed the nurse until the curtain fell and he couldn't see anything anymore, and Qin Yu took his gaze back. His performance like this, not only Ji Xiaotang can see it clearly, but Zheng Gui also sees it in his eyes.

"Yu'er really likes Xuan'er." Zheng Gui said with a smile.

Qin Yu was a little embarrassed again.

"Xuan'er is very cute." Qin Yu said with a red face.

Zheng Gui laughed for a while, and then explained to Ji Xiaotang: "Yu'er also has a few little companions around him to accompany him, and in order to take care of him, he is looking for someone older than him. He had never seen such a young child. Especially Xuan'er is so cute. ”

"What's that," Ji Xiaotang also smiled, his gaze turned to Qin Yu. "Just ask your father and mother to add you another brother and sister, guaranteed to be cuter than Xuan'er."

Qin Yu's eyes were shining.

A hint of gloom flashed in Zheng Gui's eyes, and then he laughed as well.

At this time, a servant came in from outside to report that there was a decree in the palace.

Zheng Gui immediately had an expression of "here, here, sure enough". It seems that she has guessed the content of the will.

Ji Xiaotang was very calm, just as she and Qin Zhen had discussed before. No one wants to touch her Xuan'er, no matter inside or outside the palace. This point was resolute. The rest is just a soldier coming to block the water and cover the earth.

Ji Xiaotang came to the front to receive the order, and Zheng Gui brought Qin Yu to accompany him. They arrived at the front hall, and Qin Zhen and Qin Lin also arrived. Accompanied to receive the order together. There are also Han Yi, Master Ji and Second Master Ji.

The one who came to announce the decree was still the confidant of the Empress Dowager Han, Mr. Zhang.

Empress Dowager Han's will was very concise, congratulating Qin Xuan on her 100th birthday, and saying that she was not good at leaving the palace in the palace, and asked Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang to take Qin Xuan into the palace and give her this "grandmother" a look.

Empress Dowager Han said that she really wanted to see Qin Xuan.

After Mr. Zhang finished reading out the will of the Empress Dowager Han, everyone stood up. Qin Zhen took over the will and said that he would bring Ji Xiaotang and Qin Xuan into the palace later.

He said so. None of the present showed the slightest surprise.

Subsequently, Qin Zhen asked Manager Zhang to stay and drink Qin Xuan's full moon wine.

"The prince's reward should not be shirked. It's just that the Queen Mother still has orders, and she doesn't dare to stay for a long time. Another day, he will come to the door, and then congratulate the prince and the princess, and ask the prince for a glass of wine. Manager Zhang smiled, only accepted the red envelope, but did not stay to eat and drink.

When Manager Zhang left, Qin Zhen turned his head and told Ji Xiaotang to go back and look at Qin Xuan, he was going to go to the garden with Qin Lin. They were going back to eat and drink and listen to the play.

As for the matter of entering the palace, Qin Zhen didn't mention a word, as if the will of the Empress Dowager Han just now, as well as his personal response, had never happened.

Ji Xiaotang's eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved, and he didn't ask anything, so he went back to Xuchun Hall.

Zheng Gui was very happy, even a little excited, but he didn't say a word about what happened just now.

When the banquet was dispersed, the guests left one after another, and only Mrs. Ji was left to accompany Ji Xiaotang in the Xuchun Hall, and Qin Zhen came back.

Second Master Ji also came with him.

"Lord Wang, what about entering the palace?" Ji Xiaotang only asked at this time.

"It doesn't matter." Old God Qin Zhen was on the ground, and ordered someone to bring the decanting soup to him and Second Master Ji. "You and Xuan'er can sit at home, and I'll go to the palace in a while."

Ji Xiaotang had long thought that Qin Zhen would respond like this.

"Sister Gui told me a lot of things from the past just now, at that time, did they also use this method?" Ji Xiaotang asked Qin Zhen.

"They're much more direct." Qin Zhen told Ji Xiaotang.

Because Zheng Guihuai~ had a few times during pregnancy, he suspected that it was the Empress Dowager Han's hands and feet, and later gave birth to Qin Yu, so he ignored the summons of the Empress Dowager Han.

Qin Lin and Zheng Gui are not like Qin Zhen, they both refused immediately, the reason is that Qin Yu's health is not good and he needs to recuperate.

It seems that Qin Zhen does not intend to use this reason.

"The third brother, they did that out of helplessness." Qin Zhen drank the sobering soup, his eyes were clear and radiant. With a son, Qin Zhen's spirit is becoming more and more sufficient, and the whole person is more mature and calm. "We don't have to. Moreover, I don't want Xuan'er to have a reputation for being in bad health. ”

Using the excuse of being in bad health, Qin Lin and Zheng Gui kept Qin Yu's safety, and people close to Su Wangfu also knew that Qin Yu's body had already been adjusted.

But there are still many people who don't know the true ~ appearance.

Such a reputation is a kind of protection for Qin Yu, and it will also hurt the prestige of the Su Wangfu and Qin Yu.

Qin Zhen learned Qin Lin's lesson, and with the husband and wife Qin Lin and Zheng Gui in front, and Ji Xiaotang skillfully maintained the relationship between An Wangfu and Empress Dowager Han, their Xuan'er didn't have to suffer so many grievances, and they could also keep safe.

Regarding Qin Zhen's decision, Ji Xiaotang was very much in favor of it.

"This is now, if it had been a few years ago......" Second Master Ji also drank the sobering soup, and said with some emotion.

If it was a few years ago, the Empress Dowager Han covered the sky with one hand, if Qin Xuan was not allowed to pretend to be sick, then Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang would have to compromise and seek perfection, even if they were terrified, they would have to take Qin Xuan to the Empress Dowager Han.

And today's situation is not something that happens naturally.

Qin Zhen and Ji Xiaotang were the main figures in this situation, and now they have become the profiteers, which is a matter of course.

Qin Zhen said this, but he was not in a hurry to enter the palace, but talked with Second Master Ji about today's banquet, as well as the hundreds of civil and military officials who came to participate in the banquet.

"Elder Han Ge intends to come and see Xuan'er, and the prince should accept it." Second Master Ji said to Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen has always been very respectful and filial to Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji, and Second Master Ji also knows that Qin Zhen is not arbitrary, and he can't listen to the people who advise, so he will say such words of advice.

Ji Xiaotang heard it next to him, so he turned his head and asked Qin Zhen with his eyes.

Qin Zhen explained to Ji Xiaotang that at the banquet, Han Yi and Second Master Ji sat at a table, got along very well, and implicitly said that they wanted to come and see their grandson.

However, Qin Zhen pretended not to understand at that time, so he diverted the topic.

After the banquet was dispersed, Han Yi reluctantly left, and Qin Zhen came back with Second Master Ji.

"Han Ge always wants to see Xuan'er, and he will come back in the future, just invite him to come and see it when the time comes." Ji Xiaotang said.

Qin Zhen didn't say anything, it seemed that he had acquiesced.

Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji exchanged glances, and there was a smile between their eyebrows.

Ji Xiaotang just spoke like that, on the one hand, he took the idea for Qin Zhen, and on the other hand, he didn't mean to protect Qin Zhen in front of his father.

The young couple had just had a son, and their relationship was so good, which made them extremely happy.

“…… What kind of wine did you drink later, it tastes very mellow, and it's not ...... up," Second Master Ji asked Qin Zhen again.

"That is the Fenjiu that the subordinate officials of the government went to Shanxi and found with their hearts. I knew that my father-in-law would like it, and I had already prepared a few jars for people to send to Xinhuatang in a while. Qin Zhen said with a smile.

"Okay, okay." Second Master Ji nodded again and again, the smile on his face became bigger and bigger, and he thought of his little grandson again: "What about Xuan'er?" ”

He followed Qin Zhen over, on the one hand, to persuade Qin Zhen to say a few words, so that Qin Zhen and Han Yi could get closer, and on the other hand, he wanted to meet his little grandson.

Ji Xiaotang sent someone to the nurse, and after a while, the nurse came over with Qin Xuan in her arms.

The little guy just woke up, and the bun was confused.

This made the second master Ji rare, and he was about to hug him, but he was stopped by the second Mrs. Ji.

"You've been drinking a lot of bars, and you haven't changed your clothes, and you're smoking Xuan'er."

Ji Xiaotang couldn't help laughing, and just as he was about to speak, someone outside hurriedly came in to report.

The person who came to report turned out to be Wang Ruhai, the head of the palace. Wang Ruhai told Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen that there was a guest outside the palace. (To be continued.) )
