Chapter 33: Freedom to Grow

Source of "Mo Yuan Shengyin":

Ever since he was older, Ivan had not been under much pressure from his elders, and no one had forced him to do something.

This is also something that Ivan has always been very fortunate about, being able to live according to his own thoughts and thoughts, which is rare in the emperor's house.

After all, in the entire palace, the only person who can have the power to determine Ivan's growth trajectory is the emperor except for the queen mother.

And the emperor has to be busy dealing with court affairs, reviewing and reviewing the folds, and his life has long been filled with various national events.

More often than not, the queen mother accompanies Ivan, but the way she educates Ivan is different from the other concubines.

The concubines in the palace all hoped that their sons could develop in the court and politics, so as to attract the attention of the emperor.

But the queen mother didn't think so, more often than not, she hoped that interest would become Ivan's teacher.

But this is the palace, and no matter what, this idea is too open and not in line with popular values.

can let his son, that is, the prince of the dynasty, live with his own temperament, and only the queen mother is alone.

Although the emperor did not approve of this kind of behavior very much, he was also the first person in the palace, so he didn't bother with it.

In addition, the queen mother is in the harem, so she is not taken seriously, and the emperor is also tepid to her.

This kind of laissez-faire behavior of his son is still unbelievable to the other concubines.

But this does not mean that the queen mother has never ignored Ivan, on the contrary, she will spend more time observing him in the corner.

Watching Ivan's growth may be regarded as the most important thing the queen mother has done in so many years, but she really just watched.

Only when Ivan's interest is in something bad or harmful to his body, the queen mother will choose to stop him.

And Ivan is also a very competitive child, basically as a prince, what should be learned when he is there.

Ivan didn't pull any of them, and at the same time learned better than the prince of the same age, so it can be seen that there is no problem with intelligence.

But the love of learning seems to have become the whole of Ivan's life sometimes, and the queen mother will also worry about his body.

Usually Ivan will be asked to exercise more, instead of sitting at his desk every time and learning some rigid things.

Ivan can be a very obedient and sensible child, but the queen mother always thinks that his emotional intelligence is not high.

It's strange, the other children have sweet mouths, and Ivan is good, but the queen mother always feels that something is missing.

Later, she found out that Ivan was not very good at expressing her feelings because of his straight temperament, which was also what she was worried about.

If he is too upright and doesn't know how to be flexible, in this huge imperial city, Ivan is likely to suffer a big loss.

But then the queen mother no longer thought about this problem, and it was from this that she heard Ivan "I love the queen mother".

At this time, Ivan's age was not very old, and among his peers, there were already other princes who had similar words.

Although in the harem, I often listen to the sisters showing off how smart and sensible their children are.

But the queen mother has never envied them, as long as she looks at Ivan even if he is playing, the queen mother will be very happy.

It is a child's nature to love to play, and it is not normal not to love to play, it is time to love to play, and that is understandable.

The queen mother didn't want to let Ivan know too much too much too early, and she was born in an imperial family, and the pressure was too great.

However, the queen mother must also be anxious in her heart, is it that Ivan does not want to marry literacy, does not want to learn words, and does not want to do things that he does not like. Even if the queen mother doesn't have too high requirements for him, at least he can't lag behind other princes too much.

But even so, the queen mother never thought of adding fuel to the fire, or helping the seedlings, she hoped that Ivan would be free.

It wasn't until this that when the queen mother heard Ivan's sentence "I love the queen mother", she was shocked that many times, most families were too anxious. As long as IQ is not too much of a problem, the child who should learn it will learn it after all.

Not everything can be forced, such as education, such as growing up, or it is better to go with the flow.

It was also from this beginning that Ivan himself probably didn't find out that the queen mother could almost let go.

If you want to control Ivan all the time, you will only let your son grow into what he likes.

This is not the purpose of the queen mother who gave birth to Ivan in the first place, she did not want Ivan to become the emperor and compete for the throne.

None of this, the queen mother just felt that this was the crystallization of her love with the emperor, so she wanted to give birth to him.

Now that Ivan has been born, he is an independent individual, and others can only play an auxiliary role.

However, he was born in the emperor's family, at least he didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, and he had the best teachers in the whole country in terms of education.

The queen mother often plays the role of a father, and she wants Ivan to be independent as soon as possible.

The queen mother didn't want Ivan to be entrusted to the palace of the other concubines if something happened to her.

The queen mother also follows Ivan's growth in real time, but she, like the emperor, is more often like a bystander.

The difference is that the emperor is more of an indifferent bystander, not that he doesn't care about Ivan, but he doesn't guide.

From this sentence, the queen mother had already put her mind at ease, and she finally figured out that in fact, she didn't need to worry about Ivan.

Ivan will definitely be a man who can stand on the ground in the future, and he will have his own unique life.

As for the crown prince or something, those are just things that will make Ivan's life more colorful in the future, and they are not that important.

These are not things that the queen mother wants to care about, she doesn't value these things, she has other thoughts in her heart.

Tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, and Ivan was only a few years old, but he seemed to have grown up.

The queen mother could feel Ivan's temperature, he hugged himself tightly, and he wanted to give the queen mother a warm response.

For a while, a sense of relief and pride arose, and the queen mother smiled even more happily, she was like a child who had been eaten with sugar.

Because the two hugged each other, the queen mother and her face rested on Ivan's shoulder, and even more so against his face.

So when the tears fell, Ivan could be the first to notice that there was a temperature on his cheeks.

It couldn't have been a sudden rain, and then the rain broke through the roof and dripped on my face.

"The Queen Mother."

Ivan struggled, not really trying to push his mother away, but felt that she was holding her a little too tightly.

It's a matter of holding on, and if it's too long, Ivan worries that he won't be able to speak.

At the same time, Ivan noticed the strangeness of the queen mother, and the tears belonged to the queen mother, but he did not understand the reason.

"What's the matter, Fanfan, is the queen mother too strong and tying you up?"
