Chapter 423: The one who should come will definitely come(1/2)
The fourth prince was so depressed that he wanted to spit out a mouthful of old blood. Unexpectedly, the emperor really wanted to slap him in the butt. Where did he hang his old face?
Suddenly, he wanted to rush forward and grab the little Douding and slap his butt a few times, so that he could come up with bad ideas.
Zhao Youyou had no idea how many people he had offended inadvertently, and how many people wanted to slap his little ass to vent his anger?
At this time, he was excitedly watching the emperor order a banquet, and then he had a small seat next to the emperor. He didn't know what this seat meant, but he knew that there were so many delicious foods in front of him. He looked at him with a look of some of them that his mother would not allow him to eat.
The emperor was amused by the child's eyes and immediately pointed at Zhang Jinxi and asked him to feed Xiao Douding.
As the chief eunuch around the emperor, Zhang Jinxi has always served the emperor only. No prince has ever received his service. However, Zhao Youyou did this at this family dinner today.
Zhang Jin was salivating and smiling, and picked up the plate and wanted to feed Xiaodouding. However, Xiaodouding handed it to the emperor with a piece of pastry that his mother had fed him.
The emperor was stunned. He lived to this age and had never given him food. So he smiled and said, "For the emperor's grandfather?"
Zhao Youyou nodded a lot. When he was at home, he would share his food with his mother, which was taught by his mother.
"We Brother Wei is really filial." Xia Wei praised at the right time.
But Zhao Youyou looked at her with confusion, wondering who she was talking about?
Xia Wei couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled at the emperor, "I heard that Brother Wei has a nickname called Youyou..."
As soon as he heard the words "Youyou", Zhao Youyou immediately responded. He saw his eyes lit up and he grabbed a piece of pastry and wanted to hand it to Xia Wei. He thought Xia Wei wanted it too.
Xia Wei was immediately flattered, so she took the pastry from Zhao Youyou's hand teasingly, "Then do I really want it?"
Zhao Youyou nodded again and said the word "want".
Xia Wei really took this pastry from Zhao Youyou's hand, then pretended to put it in her mouth, but went to observe whether the child was about to cry? She had no children herself, but she had seen the scene of her brother's child crying after pretending to be generous, so she was inevitably taken out to tease the funny child.
However, Zhao Youyou happily raised the other piece of pastry in his hand a little higher, and pointed his tender finger at Xia Wei, meaning that she wanted it, why don't you?
The emperor felt a little proud when he looked at the clever little grandson. He actually reached out to take the pastry in Zhao Youyou's hand and started eating it. The originally ordinary pastry suddenly became extremely delicious.
Zhao Youyou took a breath at this time, and then went to get the pastry and tasted it.
He did not mess with pastry crumbs, but ate them in small bites. It was much better than children of the same age, and Zhang Jinxi didn't have to feed him on the side.
He would use his fingers to eat whatever he wanted and then click on his own bowl. Zhang Jinxi would understandably hold the food into the bowl in front of him, and he would hold the wooden spoon and eat it. It was a bit unfamiliar to his movements, but he could indeed bring the food into his mouth.
This is a worry-free child. Zhang Jinxi couldn't help but fall in love with her, her eyes full of smiles.
The emperor looked at Zhao Youyou's every move and couldn't help but sigh, "This child was taught very well by his mother."
While pouring wine for the emperor, Xia Wei smiled and said, "Your Majesty, there is an old saying that you can see the old man at the age of three. According to what I see, this is quite reasonable."
The emperor glanced at Xia Wei. This woman has always been smart, but now she often says good things to Zhao Youyou, which makes him think more.
Xia Wei glanced at her sideways with dissatisfaction, "I just accepted the gifts that we have, how can we not say good things? Yes, yes?"
Zhao Youyou looked up from the bowl with difficulty and looked at Xia Wei, then nodded greatly.
The emperor was amused by their interaction. He threw Duosi to Java. This child does have the ability to fall in love with him involuntarily. Moreover, every move of this child is obvious from the heart. It is not something that someone deliberately taught to please him. Otherwise, over the years, no grandson would have come to please him. After all, Zhao Youyou is the youngest of all his grandsons.
The emperor was amused by the child several times today, and this fell into the eyes of everyone. Moreover, Zhao Yu's child also got the opportunity to eat next to the emperor, but even the deposed prince in the past failed to receive grace.
Zhao Yu and Rong Jingqiu couldn't swallow their food. After all, their children were worried, and they all spent all their energy on paying attention to their son's every move, for fear that there would be mistakes that would make the child offend Tianyan.
The fourth prince brought the wine pot to Zhao Yu's table and reached out to pat Zhao Yu on the shoulder, "Ninth brother, you have raised a good son."
Zhao Yu turned his head to look at the Fourth Prince, squinted his eyes and clinked his glasses with the Fourth Prince, "Is the Fourth Brother drunk talking drunk? It would be nice if my troublemaker didn't mess with me..."
"Ninth brother, you don't have to be so humble in front of your fourth brother, right? You still remember your fourth brother's twenty boards."
"Fourth brother, what I said is heartfelt, why don't you believe it?"
Zhao Yu blinked his sincere eyes, but the fourth prince felt a punch hitting the cotton. He was immediately angry, but he didn't show his face. At this time, he could only drink with his brothers and sisters in a respectful manner.
However, Rong Jingqiu bit his ear with the Eighth Prince's Concubine He, and He comforted him, "Don't worry too much, this is a good thing..."
Rong Jingqiu smiled bitterly, "I would rather my boy be as obedient and well-behaved as Brother Ming." While speaking, he reached out and stroked Zhao Ming's head.
Because he was rescued by Rong Jingqiu during the Lantern Festival last year, Zhao Ming was quite close to Rong Jingqiu, so he obediently sat there and let Rong Jingqiu stroke his head, and even smiled at Rong Jingqiu.
"So good." Rong Jingqiu said happily.
He also stroked the top of her son's head, and she had only this hope left, so she didn't compare her own son with other people's sons. This was incomparable.
Zhao Yu was very busy at the banquet today. Many clan relatives who had no friendship on weekdays came to him to drink, and he could only deal with it one by one, so he couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.
Rong Jingqiu was worried about her son while worrying about Zhao Yu, and she was very busy.
Fortunately, the palace banquet always ended, and Zhao Youyou was already sleepy because he had been playing for so long. He was dozing off with the small chair he was sitting on.
The emperor looked at the little grandson lovingly, afraid that he would find his mother when he woke up. After all, the child was still so young, so he said to Xia Wei, "Take him to his mother."
Xia Wei immediately received the order, got up and carefully picked up Zhao Youyou. The milky fragrance on the child immediately filled her nose, and her soft little body made her get up.
Zhao Youyou was half asleep and half awake at this time. He looked up at Xia Wei and felt that he knew each other, so he closed his eyes again. But not long after, he opened his eyes again and looked at Xia Wei, and then closed his eyes again. The movement was repeated constantly, and the emperor was a little surprised.
Xia Wei didn't know whether the child fell asleep or not. In short, he wanted to look at her every once in a while, but he refused to close his eyes completely.
When Rong Jingqiu saw Xia Wei holding Zhao Youyou, she immediately stood up and greeted her. Just as she was about to salute Xia Wei, Xia Wei hurriedly said, "Don't salute, the child is going to fall asleep. Your Majesty will send it back to you by this palace."
In this occasion, Rong Jingqiu could not have too much contact with Xia Wei. Especially when she heard that her son was going to sleep, her mind was all about her son. She took her out of Xia Wei's arms. She patted her son on the back and coaxed him.
Zhao Youyou smelled the smell of his mother and raised his eyes to look at Rong Jingqiu. After a while, after confirming that, he closed his eyes and buried his head in his mother's arms, and fell asleep.
When Xia Wei saw this scene, she couldn't help but smile, "I wonder why he is going to sleep or not? It turns out that he is worried about me. He is afraid that I will abduct him? This little man is so sage."
Rong Jingqiu had never seen her son before. After all, all the people who served in the mansion were all acquaintances, and the child was not so cautious. Now when he heard Xia Wei say this, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised. It is a good thing for the child to be cautious.
When Xia Wei went back, she told the emperor what had just happened as a joke. The emperor was surprised when he heard it. He called the boy smart, and then burst into laughter.
Long Xin was very happy, which was a consensus among those who attended this banquet today.
When leaving the palace, Rong Jingqiu hugged his son tightly and carefully tucked him a few quilts. Zhao Yu, who was beside him, wanted to get close to the mother and son, but Rong Jingqiu ruthlessly pushed away, "All the smell of wine, be careful not to infuse his son."
Zhao Yu felt a little aggrieved, feeling that his son had snatched his wife's love, and reached out to touch the kid.
Unexpectedly, his hand was slapped open by his wife again, and he heard Rong Jingqiu say in his ears, "The child is asleep, don't quarrel at him."
Zhao Yu suddenly felt that the child was so annoying. So, as soon as he returned to the mansion, he dug out his son from his wife's arms and stuffed it to the wet nurse, and then pulled his wife who wanted to return to his son's son to the dormitory.
Before Rong Jingqiu could protest, she was pressed by Zhao Yu on the door. He only heard him panting in her ear and said, "You are mine."
Her heart suddenly throbbed, and now she no longer cared about Zhao Youyou.
The incidents of the royal family dinner during the New Year were widely circulated. When Qi Aoer was painting paintings, she couldn't help but frown, immediately threw away the paintbrush and ran to find her father.
Prime Minister Qi looked at the daughter who was hurriedly found, and couldn't help but frown and scolded her.
Qi Aoer knew that she had lost her manners and hurriedly bowed, "Dad, my daughter heard about something..."
"Is it about the Ninth Prince and his son?"
When Qi Aoer heard this, he said "yes".
Prime Minister Qi sat down again, and put away the previous endgame, and then set up the game again. "You are panicked when the prince is deposed?"
Qi Aoer's face turned slightly red. She had originally locked in her target as the prince, and there was a concubine's way to explore the way. It was very easy for her to pick the fruit, but now the prince has been deposed, and she couldn't tell which of the remaining fourth prince and ninth prince could win for a while. She was getting older every year, and when she heard her mother complaining again, she couldn't help feeling unbalanced and worried that her dreams for many years would not be realized.
After her father mentioned this, she realized that she had lost her normal mind, so she quickly said, "Dad, don't worry, my daughter knows what she is doing, and she will never do this again."
When Prime Minister Qi saw that his daughter had calmed down again, he stroked his goatee with satisfaction, "Tell me what you think."
Qi Aoer said, "Dad, my daughter thought it would be better to take the initiative than to wait for the rabbit." After pausing for a while, seeing her father's encouraging gaze, she continued, "The Second Prince and the Third Prince have long withdrawn from the battle for the throne, and my father said that the Second Prince had long since secretly joined the Ninth Prince's camp, and the sixth prince has always been inconspicuous, the eighth prince is a kind of person, and the Taiping Prince is his pursuit. The tenth prince is too young and not competitive. After all, the only ones who have the ability to compete are the fourth prince and the ninth prince..."
Prime Minister Qi looked at his daughter with a smile, and then handed her a black spot, "You can try breaking the deadlock."
Qi Aoer glanced at the chessboard and without hesitation, he lowered the blackzi to the place where he responded. "My daughter thought that the Ninth Prince had a better chance of winning than the Fourth Prince. My father was the prime minister of a country. We have this strength. If we help the Ninth Prince, then my father will be bound to be able to follow the dragon in the future. More importantly, if the Ninth Prince is Shengsheng, if he wants to control the overall situation, he will be able to help him."
She said as she picked up all the eaten white pieces, then confidently threw them back into the chess box, raised her head and said again, "At that time, he would not agree to marry a daughter. As for his annoying wife, there are thousands of ways to disappear in this world. Dad, do you think?"
She never took Rong Jingqiu seriously. Although she never took action when she was unsuccessful in playing tricks on her back then, she firmly believed that she would not lose to a woman who only knows how to stay in the inner husband.
As for the Xiao Douding, who was very pleased by the emperor, she didn't think it would be a roadblock. The role of this child is to increase Zhao Yu's bargaining chips for the throne at this moment. After the matter is successful, there are still tens of millions of ways to make a child unable to grow up.
In short, she regards the rear position as her own object.
As for the relationship between men and women, this is never within her consideration. After all, love is always easy to disappear. What she wants is supreme rights, not to get a man. Therefore, she has always been very arrogant and feels that she has a pattern than an ordinary woman.
Prime Minister Qi looked at his confident daughter and didn't know whether he was happy or moved. However, this child can often bring surprises to him. He never needed a daughter who was indulging in love.
However, he was still accustomed to his behavior and did not express his opinion immediately.
In fact, he still had some doubts about Zhao Yu and needed to take a look.
Qi Aoer didn't need his father to express his opinion immediately, after all, the father and daughter had a tacit understanding.
During the Chinese New Year, Rong Jingqiu received Qi Aoer's greetings and couldn't help but smile sarcastically. What should come will come. Qi Aoer can no longer sit still and is ready to take the initiative. It depends on whether she agrees or not.
She pulled out this prayer post alone and threw it into the charcoal basin. When she saw the invitation turned into ashes, she felt relieved.
"Miss, do you hate this daughter of Prime Minister Qi?" Lin An asked. After all, he rarely saw Rong Jingqiu's actions.
Rong Jingqiu supported her chin and sneered, "I just hate her. The prayers she handed in the future will be burned, so I don't need to pay attention to her."
Only when a dog is anxious will he jump over the wall, but she doesn't believe Qi Aoer will not be anxious.
Qi Aoer, who is already over 20 years old, is now an old girl. There have always been many rumors about her in the upper class. This is one of the reasons why Qi Aoer is so persistent in the position of queen. She wants to use this to seal those faint mouths, proving that her years of waiting is worth it, because she has become the mother of a country.
So if she doesn't accept the move, even if Qi Aoer has thousands of tricks, she will have no choice. At that time, any stupid move will be used.
