Chapter 448: Visiting the Garden
Following Princess Fuyu's family of three, the four princes also came.
Liu Yan was even happier when he saw the little brother.
She didn't invite the Four Princes, and the reason was complicated - well, it's actually quite simple.
Because lately the relationship between the brothers has become more and more strained. Liu Yan didn't want to invite them to come here to continue to stare at me and I stare at you. Since this is the case, then none of them can be invited, otherwise if you only invite the four princes, the other three will inevitably be more exclusive and isolated from him.
But the fourth prince came by himself.
Of course, the little brother is happy to be able to come to Liu Yan.
"I don't think the food and drinks you prepared today may be enough, so I've got some more for you."
The four princes not only brought cooks, wine, and even tables, chairs, and dishes, which were all sent together, and it was definitely more than enough to organize a lively wine banquet.
Now Liu Yan doesn't have to worry about his lack of preparation.
Liu Yan happily grabbed the arm of the fourth prince: "Little brother is the best." ”
The fourth prince smiled.
He likes to hear his sister say this.
The fourth prince wanted to help her come up with ideas before, but Liu Yan insisted that this was her "first time" to treat her "own territory", so she had to do it herself, so the four princes could only listen to her, but secretly he asked Mao Dezai to carefully inquire about the arrangements of the fourth princess this time, and he was ready to check and fill in the gaps for her at any time.
In fact, Liu Yan didn't plan to invite any outsiders this time, they were all the closest people, even if something went wrong, no one would take it to heart, let alone blame her for it.
But Liu Yan feels that he is going to be the master, although he does not want to be able to do the best of this treat, but he can't make any big mistakes.
Liu Yan and the four princes went in together, talking and laughing along the way, telling him what the scenery was here and what was the place in front of him, and the four princes listened patiently-
Chaoyun Garden is not big in the capital, and it is not ranked high in terms of exquisite luxury. But since my sister likes it, of course, the four princes look at it everywhere.
The emperor and Empress Cao came in casual clothes. Although there is no royal chariot and no guards to open the way, it can be regarded as very low-key, but there are not many guards at all, but they are broken into pieces, and the street where Chaoyunyuan is located has been sealed - fortunately, there are not many residents on this street, and this move has not alarmed many people.
The emperor got out of the car first, and he wore a lapse gown, without a crown on his head, and only tied a scarf, which looked polite. After he stood firm, he turned around and stretched out his hand to help Empress Cao get out of the car.
Min Hong and Yingluo stood aside together, and no one wanted to grab work with the emperor.
Nonsense, they support and follow Niangniang every day, what's so strange? The emperor's support is rare.
Empress Cao got out of the car, she was wearing the new embroidered camellia gauze skirt, her hair was only in a bun, and the hairpin was also a camellia, and her face was powdered, looking radiant and in a good mood.
Empress Cao helped the emperor's men get out of the car, and Liu Yan and they went forward together.
The emperor smiled and waved his hand: "Don't pay attention to those etiquette today, you can have as much fun as you want." ”
Of course, everyone else listened to the emperor - but there was one exception.
Hui'er is the exception.
This child is walking very steadily now, that is, the words are not very clear, and others know that they are in awe of the emperor, she doesn't know, at this time she came out from behind Princess Fuyu's skirt, swayed towards the emperor, the first few steps were steady, the first few steps were faster and faster, seeing that the left foot and right foot stumbled together, the whole person lay forward.
Fortunately, the emperor caught it, and directly picked her up and checked her: "Yes, it's quite heavy, it's all pressed." ”
Princess Fuyu smiled and said, "She can eat, she doesn't pick her mouth at all, she eats whatever she wants." As he spoke, he wanted to take Hui'er over.
As a result, the child actually twisted his head and leaned directly on the emperor, unwilling to let her hug her.
Although it is said that children are not sensible, Princess Fuyu often "manages" her, and the little girl Hui'er still understands this.
Except for Princess Fuyu, no one else will be fierce to her, everyone holds her and coaxes her.
The emperor smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm her grandfather, what's wrong with holding it for a while?" ”
Princess Fuyu could only laugh.
She can't snatch this disobedient fat girl back, right?
The emperor really hasn't hugged such a young child very much.
His sons and daughters were almost not in front of him when they were young, and the emperor missed them all when they were young. Although he also has granddaughters and grandsons, the emperor has a lot of scruples about them, and too many people are watching his every move. If the emperor hugs any of the emperor's grandsons today, maybe he won't be able to make waves in the capital tomorrow.
But the grandson has no scruples.
What's more, Hui'er is such a white and fat and blessed child, who doesn't like it when she sees it?
The emperor hugged this fat doll, looked at the four princes, and then looked at Liu Yan.
Neither of these children was with his wife when they were born, and he did not know what they looked like when they were children, but life was not as good as it is now, and even if he did not go hungry, he did not have such wealth and dignity as calling slaves and maids.
Even though there is everything now, what is missed is still missed.
Chaoyun Garden is completely different from the last time Liu Yan came.
The last time Liu Yan came, it was still a cold winter, and the garden was sparse, but now it is the season of spring flowers, the spring grass is green, the wicker is green, and all kinds of flowers are blooming. For example, the last time he came, Liu Yan didn't pay attention to the begonia trees planted in the verandah.
When there are no leaves and no flowers, only dead branches, where will she pay attention to whether the tree is not a tree? But now it's different, the begonias have bloomed, although they haven't reached their peak yet, they are also full of flowers. Along the water's edge of the spring, long branches, golden flowers have been spread down to the water, willow swaying in the breeze, like the ladies this year's very popular fairy cloud skirt as soft and elegant.
Hui'er was already carried by the nurse at this time - she peed as soon as she was hugged. If it weren't for the timely arrival of the nurse, the traces of the water would have been left on the emperor's body.
Empress Cao smiled, although this time she went out of the palace to relax, it was only from one big courtyard to another, but she was already very happy.
Liu Yan chirped, happy like a little bird, at the beginning she still remembered her identity as the owner, reminding herself to be steady and thoughtful, but after a while, her original form was revealed - no way, in front of her parents and brothers and sisters, where can she still be stable.
"In front is Yanhui Forest, and there are many birds in it." Liu Yan said: "You just can't go into the forest, the ground is full of bird droppings." ”
