"See Your Majesty!"

After kneeling for most of the day, Emperor Zhou returned to the imperial study, and Zixin hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"What are you doing kneeling here before your body is healed?" Emperor Zhou said lightly, "Get up and talk!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zixin was helped up by the palace people, hurriedly followed Emperor Zhou inside, paused and said, "Zixin came this time to ask Your Majesty for something!" ”

"Say it!"

"It's about the son!" Zixin bit his lip and said, "Zixin knows that he went to prison because of his refusal to marry, and the prince wants to disobey His Majesty's will, but he is really thinking about his courtiers, and the courtiers don't want to marry him, so you refuse to marry!" ”

"Oh?" Emperor Zhou raised his eyes and glanced at Zixin lightly, "But I heard the Queen Mother say that you have always been devoted to the world, this time you sacrificed your life to save him, and he repaid you, which was what he should do. His refusal to marry is not only unwilling to marry you, but also unwilling to obey the decree, which is a capital offense, and it is comparable to other people's intercession! ”

"However, this matter is because of Zixin, if the son of the world is really guilty because of this matter, Zixin will not go to the heart of the heart, if someone has to go to the prison, Zixin is willing to bear the charge of disrespecting the will, Your Majesty, you will put Zixin in the prison, let the son out!"

"What is the law of the Great Zhou when you are the Great Zhou?" Emperor Zhou said with a cold face, "Thinking that you are injured, I don't care about you, go back and recuperate well, there are some things that you should not participate in!" ”

"Yes!" Zixin was taken aback by Emperor Zhou's cold tone, and hurriedly lowered his eyes and nodded.

At this time, Chang Dan entered and said anxiously: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”

"What do you look like, talk well!" Emperor Zhou scolded.

"Concubine De is going to give birth!" Chang Shan said hurriedly.

"Oh?" Emperor Zhou frowned slightly, "Did you call the Imperial Doctor Wenpo?" ”

"It's called, it's been called a long time ago!" Chang Shan said, "The Queen Mother and Concubine Qi also got the news, and now they have gone to Concubine De's place, and sent a slave to inform Your Majesty!" ”

"Got it!" Emperor Zhou said lightly, "I'm going to take a look!" ”

He glanced at Zixin on the ground, and said lightly: "You kneel down, serve by the Queen Mother's side in the future, don't worry about things that shouldn't be in your care!" ”

"Yes!" Zixin fell to the ground and shivered.

The things in the palace naturally spread to the Chu Palace, and Concubine Liu had already prepared the gift of Concubine De giving birth to the prince or princess, and she was also very puzzled in her heart, this world was locked up, why was the prince not in a hurry at all!

She took the gift list to ask the meaning of the king of Chu, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you want to prepare more gifts for the concubine, and take advantage of the happy day when Your Majesty has added an heir to intercede for the prince?" This prison is dark and damp, and the son of the world is noble, and it is a place to stay for a long time! ”

"Prepare a ritual according to the rite!" King Chu said lightly, "Don't worry about other things!" ”

"It's about the prince, and the concubine can't ignore it!" Concubine Liu sighed, "If the prince doesn't care, the concubine will enter the palace to beg the queen mother!" ”

"Don't worry, Your Majesty won't take the son of the world, it's just a few days at most!" King Chu said lightly, "In a few days, he will be able to come back!" ”

"Is this true?"

"What are you lying to you for?"

"Then the concubine can rest assured!"

Listen to the bamboo garden inside.

"The Queen Mother and Zixin have both interceded for Brother Zhao Ling!" Qiwen said with a big belly, "But Your Majesty doesn't give any face, but you have an iron heart to clean up Brother Zhao Ling!" The news has just come out in the palace that Concubine De is about to give birth, let's take advantage of Concubine De's birth and when Your Majesty is happy, let's intercede for Zhao Ling, can't we miss this opportunity! ”

"You're about to give birth, and you were told to stay at home and wait for the baby earlier, what are you running around?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked with a smile.

"Brother Zhao Ling has an accident, where am I staying!" Qiwen said anxiously.

"Concubine De gave birth to an heir, we have to congratulate, but don't mention the matter of the son!" Jiang Xiaoyu said.

"Why?" Qiwen asked strangely.

"You just listen to me, in a few days, Your Majesty will naturally let Zhao Ling out!" Jiang Xiaoyu smiled slightly, "At this time, there are so many people waiting to give gifts to Concubine De, let's go later, so as not to crowd and make your body unbearable!" ”

"Good!" Qiwen sighed softly, "Seeing that you have negotiated like this, I have a bottom in my heart!" ”

In the evening, news came from the palace that Concubine De had given birth to a little prince!

Wen Po hugged the little prince with a loud laugh, and said congratulations, the queen mother was very happy, this royal family added Ding made her more proud than to quell the rebellion.

She carefully held the wrapped little prince in her arms, and said with a smile: "Look, come and see!" This is the youngest grandson of the mourning family, looking at his eyes and nose, how similar he is to His Majesty! Listen to this cry, how loud! It's the seed of our old Zhao family! ”

She handed the little prince to His Majesty and said with a smile: "Come and hug your little son!" ”

Emperor Zhou held the little prince in his arms, and there were very few intimate actions between him and his sons, and he rarely hugged several princes, but it was also a happy event to have an extra son, and there was a little smile between his eyebrows.

However, he didn't hold it for a while, so he handed the little prince to the Queen Mother and went inside to visit Concubine De.

Concubine Qi has been by her side when Concubine De gave birth, Concubine De collapsed tiredly, and Concubine Qi was also tired and sweaty, and at this moment she was letting Concubine De lean on her body and personally drink a refreshing decoction for her.

"See Your Majesty!"

Hearing the voice of the palace maid asking for peace, Concubine Qi raised her eyes, and was about to ask for peace in a hurry, Emperor Zhou raised his hand and said softly: "No need to be polite!" ”

Emperor Zhou sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the pale Concubine De, held her hand and said, "You have worked hard, you are the hero of our Zhao family!" ”

"This son and concubine can't be born alone, and the concubine doesn't dare to take credit!" Concubine De smiled, "But the concubine wants to ask Your Majesty for a favor, the prince has taken care of the concubine's mother and son, the prince is young and frivolous, the concubine asks His Majesty to forgive him once, he has learned a lesson this time, and he will definitely not dare to do it next time!" ”

"I'll think about it!" Emperor Zhou said, "You are also tired, take a good rest, don't think too much about other things!" Concubine, Concubine De will be taken care of by you! ”

"The concubine obeys!"

After Emperor Zhou visited Concubine De, he went out only to see that the two sons had arrived, the fifth prince carefully hugged his younger brother, and the second prince also teased, a scene of brother and brother, he was slightly flustered, and there was a strange feeling in his heart, but this faint warmth was fleeting.

"See Father!" The second prince hugged his fists.

The fifth prince hugged his younger brother, frowned and said, "Father, look! Why is my brother so ugly! ”

When the little prince heard his brother say this, he cried out in protest, and the queen mother hurriedly picked up her grandson in distress and coaxed her, and the fifth prince hurriedly followed and coaxed.

The second prince looked at this scene, laughed, and said: "The fifth brother likes the sixth brother very much, the father might as well add a few more brothers to our brothers!" ”

Emperor Zhou smiled and did not speak.

"There is one more thing for the son to report to his father, which is about the Qimu grassland!" The second prince said.

"Say it!"

"A letter from the Qimu Grassland is willing to negotiate peace!" The second prince said.

"That's a good thing!"

"The princess and the princess of Qimu are life-saving, the prince and Qimu are also very close, and the son thinks that the candidate for the peace talks is the best!" The second prince said.

"I'll think about it!" Emperor Zhou thought for a while and said, "You first arrange the peace talks, and as for the candidates for this discussion, I will consider it again!" ”

"Yes!" The second prince clenched his fists and said, "The minister will arrange it now!" ”

"Hmm!"

Emperor Zhou's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was some deep meaning in his gaze.

The next day, after Jiang Xiaoyu and Qiwen visited Concubine De together, she went to find Zixin again.

Zixin was recuperating in the house, and several palace people glanced at Jiang Xiaoyu vigilantly, and then someone went out, just afraid that he was going to report to the Queen Mother. Jiang Xiaoyu didn't care, and smiled at Zixin: "Excuse me, is your body better?" ”

"It's not a serious injury, it's not a big deal!" Zixin said lightly, "I don't know why the princess came?" ”

"Thank you!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "It was you who saved Zhao Ling, you were injured for Zhao Ling, no matter what, I should come to thank you!" ”

"This is a matter between me and the Son!" Zixin smiled lightly.

"What's more, I heard about your intercession for the son, and I want to thank you for this matter!" Jiang Xiaoyu said.

"You're here to mock me?" Zixin asked with a slight raised eyebrow.

"No, thank you from the bottom of my heart!"

Zixin was silent for a moment and said: "Actually, I've been thinking about a lot of things these days, I should apologize to you, because of my jealousy, you have suffered a lot of grievances before!" Thanks to your tolerance with the prince, you didn't pursue me again for the incident in the county king's mansion, otherwise I might not even have a chance to be the prince, I did a lot of wrong things, I apologize to you! ”

"Don't talk about the past!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "I owe you a favor with Zhao Ling, if you need our help in the future, just say, we will do our best!" ”

Zixin nodded lightly and said: "Yes, let the past pass, there are some things I keep in mind, and my heart is not happy, I saved the world, you also forget about it, and the two will not owe each other in the future!" In this way, I will have no burden in my heart, and I will be able to relax in the future! Before you and me, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to become friends, but since the two are clear, we don't have to meet again in the future! ”

Jiang Xiaoyu nodded and said, "Okay!" ”
