Chapter 322 Teaching and Examination

The queen saw the smile on Wei Ning'er's face and felt it was extremely dazzling. She clenched the jade hands under her sleeves tightly, suppressed the unhappiness in her heart, and said with a smile: "My sister, your concubine, is absolutely right. I thank you, your Majesty."

Grace, being taught by the emperor himself is an eternal blessing.【】"

The emperor nodded and said: "It's getting late, and Yongxu also needs to be taken care of. Please kneel down!"

"Your Majesty, Yongzhuang wanted to see Your Majesty, my concubine..."

Before the queen finished speaking, the emperor shook his head and said: "Yongxuan is still asleep. I will go to Yikun Palace to see Yongxuan later!"

"Yes, it's still early at this time, so I ordered people to prepare dinner and wait for the emperor to come!" the queen said with a smile.

"No need, I will stay in Yanxi Palace today!" the emperor said calmly.

The smile on the queen's face froze, and then she smiled and said: "Yes, I have resigned!"

After the queen left, the emperor held Wei Ning'er's hand and said softly: "Let's go with me to see Yongxuan."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wei Ning'er responded and entered the palace with the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my little brother just drank medicine and fell asleep!" Qingyan reported immediately when she saw them coming in.

"Go down!" Wei Ning'er waved her hand gently.

The emperor walked to the bedside and sat on a chair, holding Yongxuan's hand with a distressed look on his face.

"Your Majesty!" Wei Ning'er called in a low voice.

"I will accompany him!" The emperor looked at Yongxuan lovingly and sighed in his heart. He had to admit that this child was outstanding among the princes, but it was a pity that... he could not inherit the throne.

"Where's Yonglu?" After a while, the emperor suddenly asked.

"The wet nurses took him to play in the side hall!" Wei Ning'er replied with a smile.

"I'll go and see him later!" the emperor said softly.

"Yes!" Wei Ning'er nodded and said with a smile. How could she not know what the emperor was thinking? The emperor loved all the four children she gave birth to. If he doted on the two princesses, then he loved the princes Yongxuan and Yong.

Lu, the emperor has more expectations. Yongxuan is okay. After all, his identity has been determined and he will have no chance of becoming the emperor in the future. But Yonglu is still young... Thinking of this, Wei Ning'er shook her head gently. She didn't want her child to be

She was involved in the struggle for the throne, but the emperor was far more persistent than her. She could think carefully about the meaning that was revealed unintentionally.

"Although Yonglu is only one and a half years old, she is very smart and will be a great talent in the future." The emperor smiled.

"Your Majesty, please don't treat one favorably. The Seventh Princess and the Ninth Princess are also well-behaved!" Wei Ning'er laughed softly, she was afraid that the Emperor would mention the future again.

When the emperor heard this, the smile on his face deepened. Maybe it was because of his love for Wujiwu. He liked all of Wei Ning'er's children. He came to Yanxi Palace to see them every day, but he still felt that it was not enough, as if he had not seen these children for a day.

The child felt empty in his heart.

At nightfall, Yongxuan woke up again. Maybe it was because he had taken medicine and slept for a long time. At this time, he was slightly relieved and no longer complained about pain. However, Wei Ning'er was still not at ease, fearing that it would be like what the imperial doctor said.

, the child would have a fever at night, so she stayed by Yongxuan's side. The emperor naturally stayed with her, and it was not until the second half of the night when she saw that the child was fine that she fell asleep.

Naturally, the servants did not dare to disturb him. When they got up the next day, it was already broad daylight.

"Your Majesty, you have to go to Jianting today to teach and test the princes. It's getting late!" Wei Ning'er saw that the emperor had breakfast but didn't get up to go to Jianting. Instead, he sat in front of Yongxuan's bed, not knowing what was going on with his son.

Something was whispered in his ear, and he couldn't help but remind him.

"Let them wait a little longer!" The emperor did not take it to heart.

When Wei Ning'er heard this, she said no more.

"Your Majesty, Ma Renyi has come to invite the Emperor to the Arrow Pavilion on the orders of the Queen Mother!" Wu Shulai came in and reported.

"The Queen Mother is here too!" The emperor's face looked a little moved.

"Informing the Emperor, Ma Renyi said that the Queen Mother and other empresses are here, and they will personally watch the Emperor teach and test the princes!" Wu Shulai said respectfully.

When the emperor heard this, he nodded gently and said: "Get off!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Wei Ning'er said with a smile.

"You should go and have a look too!" The emperor took her hand and walked out.

Wei Ning'er originally wanted to tell the emperor that she wanted to stay in the palace to take care of Yongxuan, but when she thought of her eleventh brother Yongxuan who hurried to Jianting early in the morning, Wei Ning'er swallowed the words that came to her lips.

She has been taking care of Yongxuan for three years. When Princess Shujia passed away, Yongxuan was less than four years old. Because of the sudden loss of her mother, she resisted everyone around her. It was she who allowed Yongxuan to eat and sleep with Yongxuan.

, took good care of both brothers, and the child slowly recovered.

Although she regards Yongxuan as her own, the mind of a child without Eniang is the most sensitive and fragile. Thinking that other brothers have Eniang watching from the side, but Yongxuan is alone, Wei Ning'er's heart

It was so uncomfortable.

Arriving at Jianting, Wei Ning'er greeted the Queen Mother and the Empress, and then went to Concubine Chun and Concubine Yu.

"Eniang, you're here!" Yongxuan ran over and hugged Wei Ning'er, smiling: "I thought that Eniang wasn't coming!"

Wei Ning'er touched his young face and said with a smile: "Of course E Niang will come. E Niang will accompany Huang Ama. This year is our Yongxuan's first teaching exam!"

"Don't worry, Niang. All the brothers will personally teach you how to ride and shoot. I will definitely let Emperor Mama praise you!" Yongxuan also wanted to be loved by many people like his brother Yongxuan. Naturally,

, what he wants most is to be praised by his mother-in-law

Although he is still young, he also knows that the person in front of him is not his mother-in-law, but... the best people in the palace who treat him best are his mother-in-law and brother Yongxuan, even though they are the same as his mother.

Brother, I was only slightly nicer to him than others.

When Princess Shujia died, the fourth elder brother Yongxuan was sixteen years old. He happened to marry Fujin that year. The eighth elder brother Yongxuan was nine years old and was taken care of by Lu Yunxi. The eleventh elder brother Yongxuan was under four years old and was taken care of by Wei Ning'er.

Take care, brother

The relationship between the three brothers is gradually not getting better than usual, especially Yongxuan, who is young and can hardly see each other. After entering the upper study and arrow pavilion, they can see each other every day, but they can't.

A lot of alienation.

The emperor taught the princes how to ride and shoot every year, starting with the older princes. The third elder brother flew on the horse under the eager gazes of the princes. He shot ten arrows in a row while the horse was galloping, which made everyone's heart beat.

They were all mentioned in his throat, and finally he hit the bull's-eye with seven arrows.

"Not bad!" the emperor smiled.

When Concubine Chun heard this, a relieved smile appeared on her face. Her third elder brother was now the eldest prince, but he was not outstanding in martial arts or martial arts. Now she was satisfied with such a performance.

The fourth elder brother Yongxuan saw that the third elder brother, who had never been the best in cavalry and shooting, could still hit seven arrows. He felt confident in his heart. In the end, he only hit six arrows and was frustrated. The emperor didn't say much, and he didn't seem to care.

He had great expectations, which actually made Yongxun feel even more uncomfortable.

"Fifth brother, it's your turn!" Yongxuan ran to the fifth brother and said with a smile.

"Well!" Yong Qi smiled and patted his head. He got on the horse in front of everyone's attention. He was not in a hurry. He prepared his bow and arrow before riding the horse and galloped away. To everyone's surprise, he actually shot two arrows.

The volley of arrows hit the bull's-eye one after another, and then three arrows were fired in succession, which shocked the concubines who had never seen a teaching test before.

"Okay!" the emperor laughed loudly.

"Yongqi is really an eye-opener for the Ai family!" The Queen Mother also smiled from ear to ear.

Concubine Yu couldn't help but be happy when she heard this. She was relieved until Yongqi all hit the bull's-eye.

Among the older princes, the most promising one was Yongqi. Emperor Longyan Dayue praised him greatly and ordered him to be rewarded.

Chun Guifei's sixth elder brother Yong Rong and third elder brother Yong Zhang both hit seven arrows, which made Chun Guifei extremely happy. Although her two princes were not top-notch, they were not as good as those above, but more than enough.

The eighth elder brother Yongxuan is only thirteen years old this year. He is a half-grown child. Although he was only hit by five arrows, he was praised by the emperor. As for Yongxuan, at the age of seven, he did not have the strength to shoot the arrows.

The branch shot as far away as the target, but it still had a certain appearance. It made Wei Ning'er feel familiar, as if she had seen her Yongxuan.

"I'm sorry, Niang, I missed the shot!" After Yongxuan dismounted, he came to Wei Ning'er with some frustration and whispered.

"You're still young, but you're already pretty good!" Wei Ning'er held his little hand and smiled.

"Your mother-in-law is right. When your fifth brother was as old as you, he was already good at shooting arrows!" Concubine Yu also said with a smile.

The emperor was also extremely satisfied with Yongxuan and praised him a lot, which made Yongxuan smile on his face.

"The Ai family heard that the emperor is going to personally teach the twelfth prince how to ride and shoot?" the queen mother turned around and said with a smile.

"Yes, Queen!" The emperor nodded gently and motioned for Yong Cun to come to him. Unexpectedly, Yong Cang shook his head vigorously, grabbed the queen's sleeve tightly, and looked at her with tearful eyes.

I hope Huang Er Niang can help him refuse.

"Yongxun, you promised the Queen Mother yesterday. Go ahead. The Queen will teach you riding and shooting in person. This is your blessing." The Queen made a firm decision, pulled her son's hand away, and said softly:

"Empress Huang knows that you are a brave child, so go ahead!"

In fact, even the queen herself was a little helpless. The twelfth prince was very timid and cowardly. He didn't even dare to climb on the back of a horse. Even if someone took him to ride a horse, he would be afraid and struggle desperately, let alone draw the bow.

Every time, he would complain that his hand hurt, and the Queen couldn't help it.

Since the fifth princess and the thirteenth brother she gave birth to died one after another, she held the only remaining child in her hands for fear of breaking it, held it in her mouth for fear of melting, and was deeply afraid that something might go wrong, maybe it was too big.

She was too careful to make her child look like this, but... even if she was timid and cowardly, she still admitted it. She didn't want to see her child hurt in the slightest, and she could no longer bear the pain of losing her son.

Although the queen desperately longed for her child to inherit the throne, she did not want the child to be harmed in the slightest, not to mention that he was still young. The queen believed that the child would be different when he grew up.

Seeing Yong Cang trembling in front of him, the emperor frowned slightly, but without saying much, he leaned over to pick him up and put him on the horse. Yong Cang's body was trembling even more. When the emperor ordered Wu Shulai to lead the horse
