Zhu Jintang knew that he had fallen into someone else's way, and he was thoroughly calculated.

However, since he was able to pick up a life and come back, he was bound to find out who did it and who pointed it out. Then, the grain that had been snatched away was brought back without a single grain.

Although Zhu Jintang was lying on the bed with an injury, he also knew the current situation of the Zhu family.

In order to make up the number for the imperial court, the Zhu family must do everything they can, and if they want to continue to do business in the future, they must find a new source of goods.

Thinking about it, Zhu Jintang's eyebrows couldn't help but frown deeper and deeper, crouching into a deep "Sichuan" character.

Shen Yuechen looked at his originally bright eyes, which became gray little by little, as if he was thinking about something bad.

She stretched out her fingers and gently rubbed his eyebrows, her eyes filled with infinite worry and endless distress.

The warmth transmitted from her fingertips quickly took effect, Zhu Jintang came to his senses, his frowning brows slowly relaxed, and a slight smile curled into his mouth.

Shen Yuechen saw the chuckle on his lips, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

He didn't smile easily, even a little reluctantly.

She didn't know how she could comfort his emotions, his tormented body, and his tormented heart.

He had too many things on his mind, too heavy. And all she can do is to quietly accompany and take care of him, let him recover as soon as possible, and then do what he wants to do.

Chinese New Year's Eve, Chinese New Year's Eve.

In the morning, a cold wind rises, followed by a heavy snowfall.

The snow fell all day until it got dark. Snowflakes like catkins were raised one after another, covering the entire Texas City with a layer of snow-white new clothes.

As the saying goes, Ruixue is a good year.

Old Man Zhu only felt that this snow was falling well and wonderfully, so when he raised his glass and wrote an inscription, the first sentence was to look forward to a good harvest in the coming year.

The old man has explained before that everything in the family is simple during the Chinese New Year this year, and he is not allowed to do a lot of things. Only on the day of Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve night, a sumptuous banquet was held, and a large family of all ages gathered together for a Chinese New Year's Eve meal.

Although Zhu Jintang couldn't sit at the same table, he sat in the room and listened to everyone's talk and laughter, which could be regarded as a reunion with everyone.

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and eating dumplings, the children kowtowed to the New Year, and they all got rich New Year's money. After the meal, firecrackers and fireworks were lit in the courtyard, which was very lively.

The second member of the Zhu family is old, and it is not easy to stay up late to keep watch for the New Year, so he rested early.

Shen Yuechen is still in confinement, and rest is naturally the first thing, so she can't keep the New Year at all.

Therefore, everyone goes back to each place, and if you want to keep the New Year, go back to keep the New Year, and if you want to rest, go back to rest.

Zhu Feng and Li Shi kept the New Year together, and the couple had a long talk and said a lot of intimate words, until the early hours of the morning, when they lay down for a while.

Before dawn, Chun Ming quietly looked at Shen Yuechen, and when she saw that she was sleeping peacefully, she softly asked Wu's mother to go back to sleep for a while.

Wu's mother kept vigil all night, and her eyes were red.

Chun Ming finally persuaded her to go down and sleep for a while, not to mention that it was not so much sleeping as closing her eyes to recuperate.

The first day of the Lunar New Year is the beginning of the year, everything is smooth and smooth, there are many things to prepare, and you must be careful.

On the morning of the first day of the new year, the whole family will go to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors.

Old man Zhu led the family, young and old, knelt in front of the ancestral tablet and kowtowed, explained the major and minor affairs of the family, thanked the ancestors for their protection, and prayed for a smooth new year, everything went smoothly, and the family and everything prospered.

As the old man spoke, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and his tone was slightly choked, but his expression was still respectful.

He was grateful, grateful to the ancestors for appearing and bringing him back the Jintang.

Up and down the Zhu family, except for Zhu Jintang, who was recuperating from his injuries in bed, everyone kowtowed to the ancestral tablet.

After worshipping the ancestors, Shen Yuechen went over to look at the children, Brother Ming was dressed in red clothes and red jackets today, very festive, lined with a round little face, white and fat, sitting there like a little doll in a New Year's painting.

Everyone looked at him and felt good, and Li Shi was even more reluctant to let go of him when he hugged him, which was very rare.

Brother Ming was so sweaty that she was hugging her, his body was uncomfortable, and his whole person looked wilted.

Li Shi thought that he had not slept enough, so he let him be hugged and placed for him to take a nap.

Who knows, as soon as Brother Ming returned to the room, he suddenly came to his senses again.

Shen Yuechen picked up his little face, rubbed it, and kissed it, she hadn't been close to Brother Ming for many days.

Brother Ming also missed her, a pair of small hands wrapped around her arms, and sat quietly without speaking.

I don't know if it's because she gave birth to a child and became a real mother.

Brother Ming always felt that there was an incredible warm fragrance on her body, light and light, like a floral fragrance, and like frankincense, indescribable and inexplicable.

Shen Yuechen saw Brother Ming next to him, rarely well-behaved, and thought that he had something to say, but he didn't say a word, and it was a little surprisingly quiet.

Shen Yuechen pondered for a moment before saying, "Brother Ming, you have a younger brother, do you feel happy?" ”

Brother Ming nodded "um".

Brother Xuan looks so cute, anyone will like it when they see it.

However, Brother Ming sees him not only as cute, but also as cherished.

In his previous life, he also had a younger brother, who was his closest and dearest person. And in this life, he has a younger brother, and this arrangement suddenly makes him have a little complex about fate in his heart.

After thinking for a while, Brother Ming suddenly said softly: "I like my younger brother, I will take good care of my younger brother with my mother." ”

Shen Yuechen's heart was warm when she heard this, and she only felt a heartbreak.

Having your own flesh and blood is a great blessing in life. However, it is better to be a biological child than a biological child, and it is even more difficult to come by.

Brother Xuan is a gift, and Brother Ming is a gift, both of which require her to cherish a lifetime of treasures.

Shen Yuechen felt like she had gone through a long and boundless black nightmare, when she opened her eyes, everything was over, the black fog gradually dissipated, the bitterness slowly faded, there was only a warm light in front of her, and there was bitter sweetness in her mouth......

In the days when Zhu Jintang was recuperating from his injuries, he couldn't do without soup and water every day, and he had to drink three bowls of medicinal soup every day, and he didn't fall to the ground at a time.

Zhu Jintang has never liked to drink medicine, and Li Shi said that this is a small problem.

Zhu Jintang's body has been quite strong since he was a child, and he doesn't like to get sick, but every time he gets sick, it is a serious illness, which makes Li Shi hang his heart from morning to night, and he is worried all day long, and he is afraid that he will have three long and two short.

After growing up, Zhu Jintang was busy working at home and abroad, often going out for more than half a year, his body became more solid, and he didn't like to get sick anymore.

When I drank a bowl of soup and medicine, my mouth was full of bitterness.

Li Shi looked at Zhu Jintang's frowning appearance, and smiled slightly: "Or, I'll ask the maid to prepare some candied fruit or something for you?" ”

Shen Yuechen lowered her head and smiled when she heard this.

Zhu Jintang said helplessly: "Mother, how old is my son, what else do you need for preserves......

"It's all child's stuff." Li Shi said this sentence before him.

Shen Yuechen hugged Brother Xuan'er, couldn't help it, and laughed softly.

This is almost Zhu Jintang's mantra, no wonder, Li also knows it.

Zhu Jintang glanced at Li Shi and always felt that she was a little different from before.

Li Shi has always taken care of him, but he rarely talks and laughs with himself so easily.

"You kid is really, what's wrong with eating a candied fruit?" After Li Shi finished speaking, he turned around and ordered the maids to fetch it.

When the candied fruit box came over, Li and his parents picked up one and sent it to their son's mouth.

Zhu Jintang didn't want to eat it, he had to eat it, and he took a bite of the candied fruit, and his brows furrowed even tighter than before.

Li Shi smiled and said, "It's the same as when I was a child." ”

Shen Yuechen hugged Brother Xuan and deliberately asked, "What was the uncle like when he was a child?" ”

Li Shi groaned slightly: "Sensible, filial, smart, very old at a young age, words and deeds like a little adult." ”

Shen Yuechen smiled slightly when she heard this, then looked at Zhu Jintang and said, "Yes, it's exactly the same as now." ”

Zhu Jintang saw that she was also joking and began to make fun of herself, so he couldn't help but deliberately clear his throat and cough twice.

With this cough, Brother Xuan in Shen Yuechen's arms was woken up.

He wrinkled his little face and burst into tears.

Li Shi hurriedly got up, walked to Shen Yuechen's side, looked down and said, "It's inconvenient for you, don't toss, hand over the child to me, and I'll go outside to coax him." ”

Shen Yuechen didn't refuse, handed over Brother Xuan to the Li family, and watched them go to the outside with some reluctance in his eyes.

Zhu Jintang saw that she was reluctant, so he said: "Actually, you don't need to send Xuan'er out." ”

Shen Yuechen said lightly: "Children cry endlessly, and they may have to change diapers or something, which is troublesome." ”

He is still recuperating and what he needs most is recuperation.

"My own son, what's the trouble. Don't let the child stay out of the way, just let him stay here so that I can take a few more looks. ”

Shen Yuechen smiled when she heard this, nodded and said, "Hey, the concubine knows." ”

After a while, the crying outside gradually stopped.

Li still has a set of coaxing children, but Brother Ming and her were not close in the past, so no matter how she behaved, it was in vain. Because Brother Ming didn't accept her love at all, but Brother Xuan and Brother Ming are different, this child is still easy to coax, and he cries less.

After Shen Yuechen settled Zhu Jintang, he came to the outside room, and saw that Brother Xuan was sleeping soundly in Li's arms, so he hurriedly blessed his body slightly, and said with a smile: "I'm tired of you." ”

Li Shi sat on the chair and didn't dare to move, and said in a low voice: "Take care of him, I won't be tired for a long time." ”

Li Shi's tone was slightly emotional: "Children grow the fastest, and they grow up in a flash." This will, while he is still young, he can hug more, and when he is as old as Brother Ming, he can run and jump, but he can't hug more if he wants to. ”

Shen Yuechen sat down next to her, looked at her son's sleeping little face, and smiled contentedly.

Li Shi said softly: "Brother Xuan, this child is much better behaved than Brother Ming. ”

Shen Yuechen said: "The child is still young, and when he grows up, he will also make trouble." ”

Li Shi nodded and continued: "It's better for boys to be naughty, that's smart." ”

"Mothers always look forward to the growth of their children, but when the children grow up, they are reluctant. Look at it, Brother Ming used to stick to you so much, I have to hold you all day long. But look at it, it's only been half a year, and he doesn't follow you anymore, and his heart is wild. ”

Shen Yuechen nodded approvingly: "Yes, in the past six months or so, Brother Ming has really grown up a lot and is a lot more sensible." ”

Li Shi smiled slightly and said, "You taught him well, and the child listened to you." ”

Shen Yuechen was a little ashamed when she heard this, and bowed her head silently.

Xu Yes, because of his good mood, Li Shi talked a lot more to her today. "Jintang is back, and our hearts are all steady. In the future, you don't have to worry about anything else, just think about pulling these children into adulthood. Brother Ming is destined to inherit the family business, he is the eldest son, and he is also wild in his heart, so he has to be chained. Brother Xuan is the second son, so naturally he doesn't have to suffer his share, he can do whatever he likes in the future, and it is best to be happy and happy for a lifetime. ”

Shen Yuechen didn't think as far as Li Shi thought, the children were still young, and there were countless possibilities in the future.

According to Brother Ming's character, it is very difficult to let him inherit the family business. And Brother Xuan'er is very different from Brother Ming, he is a real child, and he should enjoy his innocent and immaculate childhood first, as for what will happen to him in the future? It depends on his own ideas.

Shen Yuechen doesn't have so many strong expectations for Brother Xuan, she just hopes that he can grow up happily and carefree.

No one can predict what will happen in the future. The road ahead still needs them to take one step at a time, walk and face it by themselves.

……

The wind is cold and the snow is abundant.

Shuiyue Palace was silent, only the palace lights swayed in the wind, and there was no joy and liveliness of the festival.

"Mother, it's late at night. Rest early. ”

The palace maid came lightly behind the queen mother Ruan Linluo and reminded cautiously.

Ruan Linluo, who is now the master of the Middle Palace, looks no different from before.

Still the same young, the same beautiful, the same taciturn.

Ruan Linluo was wearing a moon-white bedgown, her long hair was scattered, and her white face was as white as jade, but it still had a delicate luster.

She is a beauty, even if she doesn't apply powder, she is beautiful, but she is so beautiful that she is different from usual.

Faded her delicate makeup and took off her luxurious jewelry, her body lost her usual momentum, but a little more immature youth.

After all, she is only seventeen years old, if she stays in an ordinary house, she is still at the age of coquettish and fun next to her parents.

However, Ruan Linluo is already a mother, and she is also the biological mother of the current prince.

The birth of the crown prince brought Ruan Linluo incomparable glory, but it also brought her a deep heaviness and uneasiness.

Since the beginning of the first month, the northern front has been in an emergency, and less than half of the 30,000 troops sent by the imperial court are now left, which can be described as heavy losses.

One defeat after another, Li Zheng's confidence and patience will be exhausted.

The war in the north was tight, so that Li Zheng couldn't raise his head in front of the ministers.

It was his insistent decision to go to war with foreign tribes. However, the price he paid for this unwise decision was also very heavy.

Yesterday, the ministers of the DPRK and China proposed that Li Zheng should be allowed to go to the north to quell the war.

Such a proposal, on the surface, is for the sake of the overall situation, but behind the scenes, it is a trick with ill intentions.

With Wang Li Huan's whereabouts now unknown, Li Zheng knows that he has been hiding in the shadows, ready to wait for the opportunity to move anytime and anywhere.

The reason why those ministers forced him to leave Beijing was just to create an opportunity for Li Huan to take advantage of the situation.

Although Li Zheng has an impulsive personality, he is not a fool, so he can naturally see the cattiness in it.

Li Zheng is now riding a tiger, and he can't let Li Huan take advantage of it, and he can't let the northern war be defeated again and again.

He needs to think about the next step, and then use this move to revitalize his dead chess game, and then turn defeat into victory.

Li Zheng locked himself in the imperial study and didn't come out for three whole days.

Although Ruan Linluo was worried about his body, she was more worried about the safety of herself and the prince.

Lookers-on see most of the game.

Ruan Linluo is sitting in the harem, although she can't see the turmoil above the court, but she still has ears and eyeliner, and she can't leave any of the news that she should know......

The saint was forced into a corner by his own impulse, and he may be defeated at any time.

Although Ruan Linluo doesn't like Li Zheng, he is a saint, a monarch, and the support of her and the crown prince.

What if something really goes wrong with him...... Then, the fate of her and the crown prince will also be completely powdered with his defeat!

Ruan Linluo didn't dare to think about such a terrible scene, but she had to think about it.

Prince...... Her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and she suddenly murmured softly: "Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince......"

Seeing that she finally had a reaction, the palace maid hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is already asleep." ”

When Ruan Linluo heard this, she raised her eyes and glanced at the palace maid, a pair of calm eyes were as calm as ever, but the bursts of eyes revealed were frighteningly cold.

The palace maid gave her a look in fright, and hurriedly lowered her head and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has fallen asleep, and the nurses have taken care of her very carefully, so the mother can rest assured......"

Feel relieved...... There is no place in this world where she can feel at ease.

Ruan Linluo's lips moved slightly, and she said lightly: "Bring His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here, and the palace will take care of him personally." ”

The palace maid did not dare to disobey and responded again and again.

Suddenly, she came to Ruan Linluo's side with a soft swaddling cloth.

The pink little man in the swaddling clothes is the current His Royal Highness the Prince.

Li Zheng named him Yaochen, which means that he is like the sun in the morning, and the golden light is dazzling.

Ruan Linluo doesn't like this name, there is no sun that never sets in this world, light and darkness always alternate.

However, the word of God is a holy decree, and no one can disobey it.

Ruan Linluo held the prince in her arms, and when she was upset and at a loss, this child was her best reassurance.
