Chapter 402: The Vassal King (2)
In the wing room on the other side, Xihe Wang and his wife were also hugging and crying with their son.
The prince of Xihe cried for a moment, then wiped away his tears and said in a low voice, "Father, I am really unwilling to watch Xu Jing ascend the throne like this. I'm going to fight."
Even if he loses, he has no regrets.
The king of Xihe was nearly fifty years old and quite tall, otherwise he would not have given birth to a strong son. As a vassal king, he just asks about trivial government affairs, and he will inevitably indulge in alcohol. The King of Xihe is even fatter than the King of Beihai, and he is not much different from the deceased Emperor Yongming.
Hearing his son's indignant whisper, King Xihe frowned, and the fat on his face trembled and trembled: "The precedent of the prince of Yingchuan is ahead, you have to think about it."
The prince of Xihe was a little speechless: "I want to fight for the throne, and I don't plan to use a sword or a gun. If I lose the battle, I will still be my son of the king of Xihe, and I will return to the domain with my father. Could it be that Xu Jing can still kill me!"
He wanted to sit on the dragon chair, yes. However, he is not the same as the prince of Yingchuan. He disdained to do the pickled deeds and forced the Son of Heaven to write an edict of abdication, and he couldn't do it.
He is taking the line of righteous and bright contention. If you win, you will have thousands of miles, and if you lose, you will shrink back to Xihe County.
King Xihe glanced over: "You know that you can't compete with Xu Jing, do you still want to fight?"
"Yes!" The prince of Xihe gritted his teeth: "I can't swallow this breath. They are also descendants of the Xu family, and I am a few years older than him. Why should the throne be his? I'm going to fight!"
"Aren't you afraid that after Xu Jing ascends the throne, he will start to rectify you and let you wear small shoes?"
"I'm afraid!" The prince of the king of Xihe squeezed out two sentences: "However, I still have to fight."
The King of Xihe was silent for a moment, and sighed, "That's it, whatever you want to do, just do it!" However, you must remember that you must not use those shady methods that do not enter the stream."
The prince of Xihe nodded proudly.
Empress Su sat up from the bed and commanded softly, "Fu Zi, go and ask Princess Beihai to talk."
Fu Zi retreated.
Empress Su said to Zhao Xiyan on the side of the bed, "You and Chunsheng got married in the capital, and you haven't served tea to Princess Beihai yet. She'll be here later, and you'll kowtow."
Zhao Xiyan responded softly.
After a while, the princess of Beihai entered the bedroom.
Princess Beihai is in her fifties and almost sixty years old, and she has been rushing all the way, and after entering the palace, she has knelt for a long time, and now she is tired and tired. Reluctantly mustered up and saluted.
Empress Su said softly, "Sister-in-law doesn't have to be polite. Crescent moon, hurry up and help your sister-in-law get up."
Zhao Xiyan responded, helped the princess of Beihai to sit down, and then knelt down and kowtowed: "Daughter-in-law greets the mother concubine."
Princess Beihai wanted to put on a mother-in-law shelf, but Queen Su was watching from the sidelines, so she had to say, "The family doesn't have to be polite, get up quickly!"
After Zhao Xiyan got up, he sat on the edge of the bed, and naturally reached out to tuck the futon for Queen Su.
Zhao Xiyan and Queen Su have different appearances, but their temperament is a little similar and their demeanor is intimate. When these people who don't know see it, they will definitely think that they are mother-in-law and daughters-in-law!
Princess Beihai felt very awkward in her heart, and her expression couldn't help but reveal something: "Niangniang, please take care of the phoenix body, now everyone is pointing to Niangniang as the backbone."
This sounds a little sour.
Zhao Xiyan frowned slightly, and was about to open her mouth to play a round for the princess of Beihai, but Queen Su had already answered softly: "What my sister-in-law said is true. This palace can't keep indulging in sadness and sorrow, and needs to cheer up as soon as possible."
"A kingdom shall not be without a king for a day. The palace thought that when the emperor and the crown prince were buried in the imperial mausoleum, he would be born as the new emperor."
Princess Beihai listened comfortably, and the awkward unhappiness in her heart suddenly disappeared: "Niangniang values Chunsheng so much, it is the blessing of Chunsheng."
With such a good son, how can you be proud of being a mother?
Queen Su thought of the crown prince who died young, and her heart was sour. At this time, she wanted to appease the princess of Beihai, she should not think too much, and quickly suppressed these thoughts, opened her mouth to praise Xu Jing for her sincerity, loyalty and righteousness, and praised Zhao Xiyan's temperament
Toughness and intelligence are unparalleled.
Princess Beihai had no intention of being humble at all, and also praised her son together. didn't say a word to his daughter-in-law.
Zhao Xiyan: "......"
Thanks to this, she has been in the capital for more than two years. If you are with the princess of Beihai all day long, I don't know how many tongues you will have to say.
Zhao Xiyan was silently slandered in his heart, and did not interject, sitting quietly and listening.
Princess Beihai first thought about her son, and then a pair of grandchildren who had not yet met, and said to Queen Su: "Queen Mother, I have been in Beihai County, and I only entered the capital today. Xiaoguo'er and Xiaohua'er are a few months old, and I, my grandmother, have never seen them. I thought, tomorrow I will leave the palace and go to the palace to see them. I beg my mother to answer."
This is obviously not in order.
However, since the princess of Beihai opened her mouth to mention it, Queen Su would not make it difficult, nodded and agreed, turned her head to Zhao Xiyan and said, "You will accompany the princess of Beihai out of the palace tomorrow, and accompany the child to return to the palace one day."
I haven't seen the child for more than a month, and Zhao Xiyan was thirsty, so she didn't refuse: "Thank you, Niangniang."
Empress Su thought for a while and said, "Let Chunsheng go back and take a look. He's a father, and he hasn't seen a pair of children yet."
Early the next morning, a carriage went out of the palace gate, and under the protection of two hundred guards, it returned to the Beihai palace unhurriedly.
Xu Jing didn't ride a horse, sat in the carriage, and talked with his wife all the way.
Princess Beihai was coaxed by her son, and she couldn't afford to fight with her daughter-in-law. qδ.net
When they entered the Beihai Palace, the nurses came over with two chubby and cute children, and the Beihai Princess was even more overjoyed, and asked when she opened her mouth, "Hurry up and bring Xiaoguo'er over."
Then he hugged Xiaoguo'er and looked at it again, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and kissed him a few times in a row: "Eh, my good grandson was born so well, exactly the same as when Chunsheng was young."
It's much more perfunctory to Xiaohuaer, and he retracts his gaze when he glances at random praise.
Zhao Xiyan was too lazy to be angry with her, reached out to hug her daughter, and kissed her daughter's chubby little face: "Little Hua'er, my mother is back." Look, it's your father."
Xu Jing poked his head over and looked at the little baby girl in Zhao Xiyan's arms for a moment. The little flower, who has been 100 days old, looked at her father with dark eyes, and then grinned.
Xu Jing's heart melted instantly, and he couldn't help but reach out and hug his daughter. The hand, which was usually used to holding long knives and spears, suddenly became extremely clumsy, like holding a fragile rare treasure, and his hands and feet would not move.
Zhao Xiyan couldn't help laughing: "Don't be so hard, put your hand here and pat it gently."
Xu Jing quickly learned, gently patting the child's back while holding and walking.
