On the third day of Yue, Zhao Yu, the king of Dongyan, and Su Mao, the king of Nanchen, arrived at the royal capital successively, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites were busy receiving them; because the location of Beifeng was the most remote, and Mo Ziling could only arrive one day later, the king of Nanchen felt that it was nothing, and the king of Dongyan was a little dissatisfied in his heart, and felt that she was a newly sealed woman and was still young, so why couldn't she set off a day or two earlier than them; and thought about his son's message that His Majesty loved this woman, and he had united with the Murong clan to never be the king of Qin, if it weren't for His Majesty's friendship and achievements of his son, he was afraid that he would start to clean up the Dongyan royal family earlier, and immediately chatted with the officials of the Ministry of Rites that Beifeng was deserted, and it was understandable that the monarch of Wujun would come late。

Su Mao, the king of Nanchen, also nodded in agreement on the side, and even said that it was not easy for the monarch of Wujun to guard the north, after all, the land of Beifeng was vast and sparsely populated, and most of the nomads moved into Beifeng, and the people's hearts were easily chaotic;

The two old foxes looked at each other and smiled, and then followed the officials of the Ministry of Rites to the post house to settle down.

Joke, who doesn't know that at this time the upstart in the court is this Wujun monarch who only hears his name but does not see his person, although their son is also ranked in Jiuqing, but this Wujun monarch is not only the elder brother is ranked in Jiuqing, but he can also fight well before he is the prince and king of the same level as them, and the future is still the emperor and queen, that is, they need to salute and greet him; 。

Although the daughter is already a member of the royal family, after all, she is a pampered daughter in the palm of her hand since she was a child, and she has been in the palace for nearly a year.

In the Chunhua Palace, Zhao Yuan sat on the top and calmed down; after entering the palace for a year, although she was steady and dignified in front of people, she also advanced and retreated in the face of His Majesty; but after all, she was only seventeen years old, and it was the first time that she left her father and mother to come to a strange environment, and she would cry helplessly in the dead of night.

Today, when I learned that my father had arrived in the royal capital, I had counted the hours when I saw my father in my heart, but I felt that time had never passed as slowly as today, and when I saw my father, I couldn't be coquettish to my father like he used to do in the Dongyan Palace, and his face was still dignified and generous, and his heart was already like boiling water.

Zhao Yu has always loved money and power, and if he has more money, there will be a lot of side concubines, and there are many children; in addition to the concubines, he has never asked much about the other concubines and concubines, which side concubine is favored by him, and he can also remember the names of the children born to this concubine, and nothing else matters, only managed by the palace supervisor. He also heard that there were jealous people who assassinated their concubines and concubines, and when he heard this, he only sneered; in his opinion, if he could not protect himself, he would not be his children.

Despite this, Zhao Yu is a person who can distinguish between relatives and relatives, and the queen of Dongyan is also the daughter of the clan, with medium appearance, and she is better than being stable and upright; The queen also lived up to her expectations and taught a pair of children very well; not to mention that the prince Zhao Shuo acted boldly and decisively, just seeing that Zhao Yuan could not forget the royal etiquette after a long absence, he felt deeply relieved to be graceful and graceful, and he was not in vain to miss her.

After the father and daughter exchanged pleasantries, Zhao Yu took a higher look at this daughter, originally sent her to the palace to serve His Majesty for the sake of Dongyan's future, but later after his son sent a message that Emperor Chen loved the stinky girl in Beifeng, he no longer had any hope for his beloved daughter. I don't want Yuan'er to be able to figure out the holy will, although she is now the highest in the palace, she still pursues frugality and courtesy to everyone in the palace, and has won His Majesty's appreciation. After thinking about it, the little girl surnamed Mo will enter the palace, as long as the mandarin duck still advances and retreats in a certain way, even if she looks at Zhao Shuo's face, the girl will not slow her off.

Hearing that Zhao Yuan said that His Majesty was drinking child soup for the concubines in the palace, Zhao Yu was shocked, saying that His Majesty is not young, and he should know that it can be more stable if there is a prince temple as soon as possible; how can he not want a child? After thinking for a while, Zhao Yu thought that His Majesty was afraid that he wanted to have the eldest son first, so it seems that His Majesty's love for that stinky girl is far deeper than they imagined; Ah Yuan, you can do so well in the palace, don't worry about this matter, the stinky girl surnamed Mo heard that she has not yet reached the end of her life, and her life was extremely difficult when she was a child, so it is not good to say whether she can have children. As long as Ah Yuan endures for another two years, if His Majesty has no children for a long time, those imperial historians can also make him uneasy; After two years, the girl can't give birth to children, but I'm afraid that Your Majesty's mind will be on you concubines again, as long as Ah Yuan is still as dignified and generous as she is now, it is not impossible to give birth to the emperor's eldest son. ”

The words fell and saw that the sorrow between her daughter's eyebrows decreased a lot, and then comforted: "Ah Yuan, think about it again, that stinky girl is still the lord of Beifeng, she is not in the royal capital for half a year even after being crowned emperor; As long as Ah Yuan does his part, His Majesty will greet him with a smile when he comes, don't show a little sour attitude that can't be tolerated, and I'm afraid that Your Majesty won't love it?"

Zhao Yuan thought for a moment, and felt that his father's words were reasonable, thinking that his father and brother were not all like this, the mother and the princess and sister-in-law were all reasonable and generous people, so no matter how many new lovers the father and brother had, the only favorites were the mother and the son-in-law.

Unfolding a smile, Zhao Yuan thanked his father and instructed: "Ah Yuan guesses that His Majesty should be hiding this from the courtiers, and my father pretends not to know about it, we don't want to make Your Majesty unhappy;

Zhao Yu was satisfied, added a few percent of the silver ticket originally prepared for his daughter, and quietly handed it over, and after seeing that his daughter had collected it, he asked a few words to leave the palace.

In the Xia Wu Palace, Su Mao and his beloved daughter Su Ruoshui sat on the couch in the banquet pavilion facing each other, Su Ruoshui wiped her tears with a handkerchief while saying that His Majesty gave her a drink of shunzi soup, and said with a sob: "Father, you said that Your Majesty did this but you don't like your daughter to give birth to a prince, what should your daughter do?"

Su Mao was stunned, His Majesty is in his prime, and at this time, the royal family urgently needs to have an heir to stabilize the temple; after all, the first emperor caused the rebellion of the three kings last year because he had no heirs, and it was not easy for His Majesty to ascend the throne, and he should know the importance of the emperor's heir, how could he act like this?

Looking at the luxurious decoration in the Xiawu Palace where her daughter lives, it is not like the treatment that is disgusted by His Majesty, and Su Mao asked, "Ah Ruo, do you know whether Your Majesty only gives you the soup to avoid children or all the concubines to drink?"

After pondering for a moment, Su Ruoshui replied: "My daughter has never asked other sisters, how can you let your daughter ask others about such a shameful thing?"

"I heard that more than a dozen people entered the palace last year, and I haven't heard of any news of pregnancy so far, I'm afraid that His Majesty has drunk child soup for all the concubines······" Su Mao thought as he spoke, and suddenly thought of his praise for the Wujun monarch when he met with the king of Dongyan before noon, and he was afraid that His Majesty really wanted to make an exception for that female prince again, and wanted the royal family to have the eldest son first.

Looking at her daughter's sad and angry appearance, she didn't even care about her makeup, and she was extremely sad to think about it; and thinking that her beloved daughter had not suffered any grievances under Chenghuan's knees since she was a child, and now she has been treated like this for less than a year after entering the palace, she couldn't help but comfort: "Ah Ruoxian, don't be sad, since your father knows about this matter, he will definitely uphold justice for you; and it is really inappropriate for Your Majesty to act like this, and your father will ask Your Majesty at the court meeting tomorrow, but I really don't care about the stability of the society?" The courtiers knew that they would definitely not allow His Majesty to despise the temple so much, and Ah Ruo waited patiently for some time. ”

After speaking, he handed over the prepared silver ticket jewelry to Su Ruoshui, and saw the joy on his beloved daughter's face before leaving the palace.

After returning to the post house, Su Mao became more and more angry the more he thought about it, thinking that the old fox of Zhao Yu, the king of Dongyan, had also entered the palace to visit his daughter today, so it was better to discuss it with him, and immediately got up and went to the Dongyan Post House to visit and ask for a meeting.

Zhao Yu was talking to his daughter-in-law Jiang Zhiluo at the post house. Because Zhao Shuo was busy with the defense of the Beifeng Post House, he had never seen it today, he came all the way to the royal capital, and the princess Jiang Zhiluo had to lead the servants to serve, so as not to be unfilial.

Hearing that King Nan Chen came to visit, Zhao Yu glanced at Jiang Zhiluo and said: "Su Mao also entered the palace to visit his daughter today, presumably because His Majesty gave me a dodge soup; ”

Jiang Zhiluo smiled and promised to return to the house.

The waiter led Su Mao into the courtyard, Zhao Yu hurriedly got up and walked to the door to greet him, and the two sat down politely;

Su Mao talked about the shunzi soup and asked Dongyan Wang Ji Ke to also drink the shunzi soup given by His Majesty, Zhao Yu got up in surprise, and did not listen to his daughter;

Seeing that he was first surprised and then full of solemnity, Su Mao began to doubt his judgment in his heart, could it be that His Majesty just gave Ah Ruo a soup to avoid children? No, the Nanchen royal family has always been loyal to the royal family, even if her daughter is arrogant, she can't be disgusted by His Majesty within a year of entering the palace.

While thinking about it secretly, he carefully observed Zhao Yu's expression, and when he saw that he really didn't know about it, he didn't think much about it, and discussed with him how to mention this matter to His Majesty, which would not anger His Majesty and let His Majesty know the importance of the heir to the stability of the temple.
