CHAPTER XXIV

?

It's only a few days away. The crimes of the British prince and the second son were quickly listed, and the prince handed the excerpt of the severe punishment to Qi Heng, who read it, considered it, and finally decided to behead the British duke, the prince and the second son, except for the ancestral property of the Jiang family, the rest of the money and land were confiscated.

A few days later, in the evening, Qi Heng played chess with me in the Chenghuan Palace, and the prince took the account book of the confiscated British Mansion and presented it, Qi Heng glanced at it and said, "Enter the warehouse!" The prince was silent.

When I saw him like that, I smiled and said, "The prince has been busy with the affairs of the court for a while, so he must miss Run, right? ”

After a while, Run walked in surrounded by the people of the Ru Mother Palace, although he walked very slowly and his steps were not very steady, but it was much better than before when he refused to walk.

"Grandchildren greet the emperor's grandfather, the emperor's grandmother, and the father's blessing. "Run's salute to us, although it is not very standard, but it has already looked a little.

I said to Qiheng in surprise: "Your Majesty, you see, Run is really sensible. ”

The corners of Qi Heng's mouth also showed a hint of a smile, and said: "Gong Zhengji's ten sticks are not so easy to suffer, as long as the child is taught well, he will not be taught badly." Prince, if you have time to find a good teacher for Run, let's start 'Meng' next year!"

The prince said happily: "Yes, Qingxi Academy has many talents, and the sons will definitely find the best one for Runqi to 'Meng'." ”

Qingxi Academy? Does he want to find someone from Qingxi Academy? That's a bad thing, that guy has a deep relationship with Qingxi Academy! If even the emperor's grandson's Qi 'Meng' teacher is a person of enlightenment...... I couldn't help but smile.

Qiheng asked me, "Is there anything happy about the queen?"

I smiled at him and said, "It's just that I feel relieved to look at the emperor's grandson, if the emperor's grandson is not good, the concubine will apologize to the emperor!"

Qiheng patted the back of my hand and said, "It's okay. ”

The prince's eyes fell on our hands, I glanced at Qiheng with a smile, and said shyly: "Let the juniors see the jokes." "As he spoke, he pulled my hand out, but scratched it lightly with his fingernails in the palm of his hand.

Qi Heng's smile became deeper and deeper, and the prince hurriedly said, "The son of the minister retired." Qiheng also motioned to Ru's mother to take the imperial grandson down, and then grabbed my hand and smiled: "I'm getting bolder and bolder." ”

I smiled and said, "The chess game is not over yet, does the emperor want to continue?"

He said: "Naturally, we have to divide the winner and loser. ”

Our attention returned to the game, but he kept holding my hand and didn't let go, and I was distracted and finally lost. Shaking off his hand, he said angrily: "It turned out that I was like this to win me!"

Qi Heng smiled, I looked at the time of dinner, and ordered someone to pass the meal.

At night, Qiheng went to bed first, I took off the hairpin in front of the dressing mirror, and walked in lightly in the 'spring', helped me remove my makeup with my own hands, and said in my ear: "After the prince went out of the Chenghuan Palace, he went to the Changge. ”

Changge, that's the place where the Zheng family is imprisoned.

"See anyone?" I asked in a low voice.

"It seems that a few words were said through the 'door'. As for what was said, the slave and maid sent them were far away and did not hear them. ”

I thought about it for a while and said, "That's it, it's not once or twice, besides, the emperor ...... I must know that the person who guards the long pavilion is the emperor's person after all. No matter how dying she is, I can't allow her to live too long!It's just that I have to let her taste all the hardships of the world in order to quench the hatred in my heart!" Stripped of the ornaments around her body, the smile on her lips was still there, and she stepped into the curtain and graced the king's side.

The court was calm again, and the weather was getting colder, and the stove was lit only when the first snow fell in October. In the warm pavilion of Chenghuan Palace, the three children played puppets together, and after the initial resistance, Run slowly became familiar with Yuan Xi Baoyue, and with fun toys, he was no longer afraid of life.

I chatted with the Gao family and talked about Yuan Xi's enlightenment 'Meng': "The emperor has asked Run to enlighten 'Meng' next year, I wonder if King Langya has any plans to find a good teacher for Yuan Xi?"

Gao said: "The concubine doesn't know what the prince is planning, so she doesn't dare to answer the queen rashly." ”

I smiled and said, "It's up to a man to make an idea about this matter, but the princess can go back and ask King Langya, Yuan Xi and Run are the same age, why don't you let Yuan Xi and Run study together, how about it?"

A hesitant 'look' appeared on Gao's face, and he said, "But Yuan Xi is not a child in the palace...... I'm afraid it's inconvenient. ”

"What's the matter? Just let Yuan Xi live with me, the two children and the three children are all the same care. I saw that the Gao family didn't seem to want to accept my proposal, so without waiting for her to refuse on the spot, she said, "This palace is not in a hurry for you to make a decision now, and it is not too late to reply when you go back and ask King Langya." ”

"Yes. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm waiting for her to bring me back news, and it would be great if I could keep Yuan Xi by my side!

But after several days, the Gao family did not bring Yuan Xi into the palace, I asked people to summon him, but I was told that Yuan Xi was suffering from a cold and had to recuperate in the mansion, and he could not enter the palace for a few days.

I hurriedly asked Shen Qi to go to check the pulse, but after Shen Qi came back, he said that Yuan Xi's pulse was calm and there was nothing wrong.

I was silent, knowing that Qi Min did not object to Yuan Xi entering the palace to study, but Gao was afraid that Yuan Xi would leave her side, so she asked Yuan Xi to pretend to be sick in order to escape from entering the palace. I understand her feelings as a "mother", but I ...... I really want Yuan Xi to be by my side!

Yuan Xi couldn't enter the palace, not only Baoyue was unhappy, but she pestered me every day to ask me when Yuan Xi was sick and when she would enter the palace to play with her? I couldn't answer, when would a person who pretended to be sick get better, who could decide? I became depressed.

Qi Heng found out that I was unhappy, and vaguely guessed some, and said: "You already have two children by your side, and another one will inevitably not have enough 'essence' strength, so don't mention the matter of letting Yuan Xi enter the palace to study." If you want him, it is not impossible for him to come to the palace for two days when he is well from his illness. ”

I was overjoyed: "Is the emperor telling me the truth? The concubine will wait for Yuan Xi to get better...... No, go and pass the decree now, Yuan Xi doesn't have to go to the palace to study, just let him get well and enter the palace to thank him. "Wait for them to enter the palace, and then talk to the Gao family about letting Yuan Xi stay in the palace for a few days, only for a few days, presumably the Gao family will not stop it.

Qiheng stopped me: "It's too late today. ”

I smiled sheepishly, hoping that my anxiety would not attract his suspicions. Let the 'spring' be passed on tomorrow. Then I went to take a shower and change clothes, and soaked for a while when I was in a good mood. When he came out, he saw Qi Heng talking to Jiang Shouquan, and his speed seemed to be a little anxious.

"Your Majesty, is something wrong?" I asked.

He turned around, his eyebrows were full of 'gloom', he came over and held my hand, and said, "Auntie, your eldest brother ......"

I was startled and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the eldest brother?"
