Chapter 7: Chance Encounter 2
"Xiao Su Yan, don't call me Sun Gongzi, it's like how far away it is, it's the same as you call Chu Er." In the morning, the three of them had become acquainted with each other, and the relationship had become much closer, and Sun Mengqi corrected her dissatisfiedly when he heard Su Yan's words.
"Okay, Brother Mengqi." Su Yan nodded obediently, and put another chopsticks of chicken in the bowl, "By the way, Brother Meng Qi, do you know about a few princes?" ”
"Hey, why did you remember it again......" Chu Yunqing smiled, he knew that Shizi's joke, Su Yan was still stopping him at the end of class and asking, I thought that he could forget about this matter every few days, but he didn't think about it and thought about it. Tell him everything you know. ”
Sun Mengqi didn't know the details, looked at Chu Yunqing suspiciously, and said, "There are many more things about this, so I'll pick up what everyone knows and tell you about it." ”
Su Yan hurriedly filled the wine cup of the three of them when he heard this, and then sat back and stared at him with bright eyes and a look of anticipation.
"Today's saint, who has passed the age of six, has reigned for nearly 40 years, and has six sons and five daughters.
Because His Majesty's family of heirs is not prosperous, His Majesty has only one brother, and he has long passed away, so he is particularly fond of his children and grandchildren, which is also the reason why the princes and queens have not yet been divided. ”
"Your Majesty and Empress Xianshen have a very strong relationship, the first prince Hao and the second princess are the descendants of Empress Xianshen, the first prince is virtuous, married to the daughter of the Bai family in Heyang as a concubine, there is a grandson of the emperor, two granddaughters of the emperor, and one grandson of the emperor.
I heard that when the first prince was born, there was also a scene of a hundred birds surrounding the court, so His Majesty made the prince when he was two years old. I didn't think ......"
Sun Mengqi paused, took the wine and saluted to the east, spilled the wine on the ground, and poured the pot to the full, drank it all in one gulp, sighed, and then continued: "The second princess is still the Duke of Weiguo's mansion, and now the Duke of Weiguo inherits the title, and her military merits are added, and she has her own innovation. ”
"The second prince Han, who likes martial arts, has led troops to expeditions many times, fought bravely and is famous. His Majesty ordered him to take charge of the military department, because he was born by Concubine Wen, Concubine Wen and Concubine Song were in charge of palace affairs after Empress Shen passed away, so the second prince had a lot of prestige. ”
"Speaking of Song Guifei, she is still a relative of Chu Er." Sun Mengqi took a few bites of food and rested, then turned to Chu Yunqing with a smile.
Su Yan only expressed surprise, and was not very interested in this news.
"The third prince Mu, loyal and pragmatic, upright and elegant, in charge of the criminal department, his biological mother is not obvious, and he was raised under the knees of Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu is the mother of the four princes, so the third prince has been friendly with the four princes since she was a child. ”
"The fourth prince Xi, who has just reached the crown this year, is good at Danqing, is known for his talents, and is now in charge of the Ministry of Rites, but he does not love political affairs.
The four princes look like Xiao's mother, elegant and beautiful, and they look like immortals.
It is said that the palace attendants in the palace of the Four Emperors were all chamberlains, because the palace ladies were all blushing when they saw him, behaving shyly, making mistakes and omissions, and many people were punished.
The four princes couldn't bear it, so everyone in the palace changed their attendants, and they didn't know if it was true or not. ”
Su Yan was very interested in the face of the four princes, and interjected: "I think Brother Yunqing and the prince are already very good-looking, and they all have maids, you are so exaggerated, how beautiful the four princes are." Brother Meng Qi, have you seen the Four Princes? ”
"I've seen it a few times, well, well worth it." Sun Mengqi seemed to be reminiscing, took another sip, turned around and smiled at her, "It is rumored that his portrait is said to be a Kyoto woman, and even Xiying and Beijin have noble ladies who ask for the daughters of merchants." ”
A proper friend of the boudoir, no, the whole people love idols.
"What about the five princes and the six princes?" Su Yan was interested.
"The fifth prince Ze, who is simple and intelligent, is now in charge of the engineering department.
The biological mother of the five princes was Chongyuan before, and after the five princes, she carried the cultivator.
Except for the first prince and the second prince, the rest of the princes are of the same age. ”
"There is also a sixth prince, thirteen this year, who can be regarded as the son of the first emperor, so he is very favored, and his biological mother is Concubine Rong Niangniang, who entered the palace later."
When Su Yan chatted with Yun Yan before, Yun Yan also mentioned that at this time, men and queens are only adults, and they are orthodox in their studies and examinations, and they generally start to take errands at the age of eighteen. Of course, the children of poor families are in charge of the house early, and he is an exception.
Although Su Yan heard Sun Mengqi say that the emperor's family of heirs is not abundant, if you count it carefully, it is also very powerful today, and there are five princesses, of course Su Yan thinks that giving birth to boys and girls are the same.
"So, listening to you, Prince Huizhang is gone, and the second prince benefits the most......" Su Yan bit the head of his chopsticks and tapped on the small table with one hand.
"Shh......h You can eat the food indiscriminately, but you don't dare to talk nonsense. Sun Mengqi stretched out his left index finger and waved at her. Although he also thought so, how could he say it.
The three of them chatted and ate, cleaned up the small house, drank tea and rested for a while before walking to the covered bridge under the mountain.
At this afternoon, there were bursts of cicadas in the mountains, it was not very hot on the covered bridge, the breeze was blowing, with a faint lotus fragrance, it smelled very good, Su Yan took a few deep breaths.
The area of this pool of water is not small, and the exposed part is in the shape of a gourd, Chu Yunqing gave Su Yan popular science while walking: "...... This mountain is called West Mountain, also called Woyun Mountain, this water is called Woyun Pond, all of them are named after the Woyun Temple on the mountain. It is said that this view has been standing here for 300 years since the time of the previous dynasty. ”
"Because this mountain is not far from the suburbs of Beijing, and the scenery is very good, so most of the mountains are Huangzhuang Courtyards." Chu Yunqing's farewell village also had some chances, and it took a lot of twists and turns halfway.
"Or Chu Er will enjoy it, I've been staring at the house on this mountain for a long time, and I haven't grabbed it until now." Sun Mengqi said with envy and jealousy.
"Do you have less food and shelter?" Chu Yunqing glanced back at him, and his tone was fluttering.
"Hmm...... I'm not...... Aren't you my brother hahahaha......" Sun Mengqi strode forward, grabbed Chu Yunqing, and hung on him cheekily.
Chu Yunqing pushed him away expressionlessly, took off his hand as if disgusted, and took a step towards Su Yan's side. Su Yan smiled, watching them play very relaxed.
The three of them experienced a boating on the pond again, the lotus fragrance was refreshing, the water in the pool was clear and cool, Su Yan couldn't help but roll up his sleeves and play on the edge of the boat.
The fair-skinned and moist hand reached into the water, and as the boat sailed, the moist water flowed through his fingers, and Su Yan's cheeks were slightly red with joy, and his eyes were shining. Chu Yunqing enjoyed the scenery and made tea, with a little smile on the corner of his mouth.
Su Yan also picked up a lot of lotus flowers, Sun Mengqi laughed at her for even eating with bags, Su Yan ignored him, and peeled the lotus seeds to eat with relish, Chu Yunqing instructed her to put away the selected lotus heart and leave it for him to make tea, and Sun Mengqi laughed at it, Su Yan couldn't help but take a lotus pod and throw it at him.
The three of them had a lot of fun. When the sun was about to set, the three of them walked back along the water plank road. Two boys in brocade clothes walked in front of him, one with a straight and cold face, a straight posture, and the other with a face like a crown of jade, with a delicate appearance and a lively smile.
Sun Mengqi approached Su Yan and said in a low voice, "Isn't this a coincidence?" ”
Su Yan looked at him suspiciously, "Second and fifth." Su Yan was slightly stunned, suddenly.
Chu Yunqing walked ahead, and when he approached the two of them, he leaned aside and saluted: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince is a thousand years old." ”
