Chapter 261: The Great Prince's Troubles
Su Youyi asked him and he refused to say, but asked Xiao Jizi to know the truth, "Niangniang, it's because of the matter of the third prince that the eldest prince is unhappy." The palace said that the mother and the queen had a falling out, and the queen mother did not allow the third prince to be with the eldest prince as before. The third prince was crying and making trouble, and the eldest prince felt uncomfortable when he heard it. ”
"Is there such a thing?"
Xiao Kiko said: "Isn't it? Niangniang, you said that the queen is too much. Slowly, the mother has always been respectful to the queen, but now something has happened, why did she get up like this? Besides, even if the mother and the queen become enemies, what does it have to do with the two princes? The slave saw the third prince crying pitifully, and didn't know how to comfort the eldest prince, so he had to persuade him to come to Niangniang more often. ”
Su Youyi nodded, "You did the right thing, if the eldest prince is unhappy, you should come and tell me as soon as possible." So I will go and persuade him, that he may listen. ”
Xiao Jizi said happily: "Niangniang persuaded the eldest prince to be willing to listen!" ”
Su Youyi went back to the hall to talk to the eldest prince, and the eldest prince barely cheered up when he saw her, "Xiao Jizi told you everything, right?" ”
"Well, this matter is something the queen mother has done inappropriately. In any case, the love between your brothers should not be affected by others. ”
The eldest prince said sullenly: "When I was a child, I thought Yuan Song was a childish, and I didn't like to play with him, I only liked to play with Yuan Tao. Later, I found out that Yuan Tao was not well-intentioned, and you persuaded me to treat Yuan Song better, so I played with him. For so long, he has always treated me as an elder brother, and I have always protected him. Now that the good queen is like this again, does she want to deal with you, and she still wants to be unfavorable to me? ”
"Not really."
Su Youyi persuaded: "You know, the queen mother is not a very smart person, otherwise she would not be so easy to show her feet when the second prince was beaten." She didn't let the three princes play with you, but she thought that you were facing me, and she was afraid that I would use you to hurt the three princes. ”
The queen and Su Youyi have also been together for a long time, but she has never understood Su Youyi's character.
She couldn't bear to hurt even the second prince of the Li family, so how could she hurt the third prince?
This matter pitied the third prince, but I was afraid that it would pity the eldest princess, and after Concubine Hui was robbed by her, she would probably stop the eldest princess from going to study from now on.
Su Youyi couldn't help but sigh, and suddenly felt that the battle in the harem was really boring, "Why do adults have to be involved in children?" The concubines may become enemies, but the princes are brothers after all......"
When the eldest prince heard this, he comforted her in turn, "Concubine Zhao, don't think about it. Actually, I'm fine, but I often play with Yuan Song, and now it's a little annoying to hear him cry like that, and I'm not used to it for a while. Since you and the queen are already like this, I'm used to it. ”
"What's not used to?"
Su Youyi immediately corrected him, "No matter what happens, no matter what happens to me and the queen, you have to remember that the third prince is always your younger brother." Not only the third prince, but also the second prince and the fourth prince, they are all your younger brothers. No matter who their mother is, the connection to you will not change. ”
"But the third brother has ......"
"I don't care what others do, how the queen wants to educate the three princes and me. Can't interfere. But you were taught by me, and I don't want you to have a day when your six relatives don't recognize you in the future, understand? ”
The eldest prince was a little puzzled, thought about it, and said cautiously: "Then the father and the emperor and those royal uncles, are they the kind of six relatives you said don't recognize?" ”
Su Youyi was stunned and subconsciously covered his mouth.
This topic is not a good thing, and it would be bad if the emperor heard it.
She thought for a while and said: "I don't know anything about the emperor before he ascended the throne, but with my understanding of the emperor, he is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and he is not a merciless person. What's more, even if the emperor is that kind of person, he still has at least your Uncle Yongwang by his side, as well as two county kings, and brothers who support each other. ”
The eldest prince nodded, "I understand." Even if the queen asks Yuan Song to ignore me, I will do my duty as an eldest brother, how to treat him as before, right? ”
Su Youyi smiled and touched his head, "That's right." Yuanshou woke up, will I take you to see him? ”
The eldest prince immediately cheered up, "Okay, I don't know if he still recognizes me, he smiled at me the last time I saw him!" ”
Since Su Youyi and the eldest prince explained that between him and the four princes, she would be more biased towards him, and the eldest prince was completely tolerant of the four princes.
Just like he used to treat the third prince, he took care of it as the eldest brother.
Su Youyi also likes that their brothers can be harmonious, and there will be the one in her belly in the future, she may not be able to control others, but at least these three children, she hopes that they will never have a discord.
"Yes, the fourth prince has a good memory, so he must remember you."
The four princes are naturally smart, although they are less than half a year old, they know people very well, and when they come over, the four princes will also smile at them.
Soon it was the Duanyang Festival on the fifth day of the fifth month of May.
Thinking of this time last year, everyone was still picking up the Xingge and making zongzi, making a mess, Su Youyi couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic.
Suddenly, I heard Xiao Yizi come up for the emperor to pass the news, "Niangniang, the emperor means that there will be a small banquet on the Duanyang Festival tomorrow, just on the edge of the royal lake in the imperial garden." There is cool by the water, and the mother is invited to come to the banquet tomorrow. ”
"A small banquet?"
If it was just the two of them, it shouldn't be considered a banquet, Su Youyi said: "Who else?" ”
Xiao Yizi replied: "There are also the harem from the queen to the rest of the concubines, and the princes and princesses will also go." The emperor said that the Duanyang solar term has not yet fully warmed up, and it is interesting to have a banquet at this time, and it will be difficult after that. ”
Su Youyi vaguely realized the emperor's intention for this banquet, and said with a smile: "Have you heard the emperor mention the matter of summer vacation?" This summer, aren't we going to go to the Imperial Garden to escape the heat? ”
Xiao Yizi thought for a while, "No, I haven't heard the emperor mention it." Do you want to go? That's not simple, the mother opened her mouth to the emperor, how could the emperor not follow? ”
Su Youyi said: "I'm just asking in vain, there is nothing to do." Okay, I know, you should hurry up and inform somewhere else, and I won't delay you. ”
Xiao Yizi said goodbye with a smile, and Shuya came in and said: "Although it is a small banquet, the harem concubines and princesses are all there, and it can be regarded as a serious banquet." What clothes and jewelry should Niang Niang Ming'er wear? ”
"It's a little more flashy than usual. Now it seems hypocritical to Taoguang and obscurity, it is better to show them thoroughly, as those people wish. ”
