Mrs. Shi was originally going to come, but because she was feeling unwell she had to be sent a gift. Grandma Yang came instead and walked around the garden before talking to Yu Zhu.

The ladies and grandma hurriedly stood up and saluted. Seeing that Mrs. Yang seemed to have something to say to Yuzhu, Mrs. Ji said with a wink: "The tea should be ready by now... The new tea sent from Jiangnan this year.

It smells delicious.”

Smiling and guiding the way.

After sending everyone away, when Yu Zhu turned back, he saw that Yang had already picked up Brother Xi and said happily: "This child is fair and pure. He is really lucky to be born."

Yu Zhuzi hasn't seen Yang since she got married. Looking at her kind face, she couldn't help but act coquettishly around her: "It's all because of me that I gave birth to a good child."

Before Yang could speak, she followed up by saying, "My good life is all due to my mother's good birth." She put her head on Yang's arm and smiled silly, "You gave birth to my mother...so...

Ah, it’s all thanks to you that our Brother Xi didn’t grow up to be a clown monkey.”

"Little girl, you have a sweet mouth." Yang was amused by her long list. She pinched Yuzhu's cheek and gently touched her temples. She saw that her eyes were crystal clear and she looked a bit like a girl when she smiled.

She was bright and naive, and she didn't look like a mother. She knew that her granddaughter was living a good life, and she was happy in her heart. However, she still pretended to be angry on her face, and said seriously: "You are a mother, and you are acting coquettishly with your grandma."

Feeling happy, I couldn't help but think of my granddaughter in the palace. She was also pampered and grew up in the family, but she was sent to such a shameful place... and her status was not high enough to bring a dowry maid, and she didn't even have anyone to give guidance.

No, I don’t know if it will be safe...

After thinking about it, he pulled Yu Zhu over and said to her: "When you have time, go to the palace to see the Queen Mother... at least take care of her."

Yu Zhu sighed in his heart, "Guang Gu?" How to take care of Gu? What if Gu Gu becomes the target of public criticism?

Everything else is empty, you still have to rely on yourself, I can only hope that Yueyu can be more thoughtful soon, and don't suffer too much... How about going to the palace to explore?

But when it comes to the palace, she subconsciously rejects it...

She thought she would have to struggle for a few days, but unexpectedly, a decree from the queen directly saved her from the embarrassment of throwing coins.

——Ask her to take Brother Xi into the palace.

After changing clothes, waiting for the wet nurse to feed Brother Xi, and change the diaper again, Yu Zhu hugged Brother Xi and got on the carriage entering the palace.

After getting off the car at the gate of the palace, I saw Younai waiting for them, but he led them all the way to Cining Palace.

Looking at Empress Fu with a virtuous smile, Yu Zhu was speechless. These days, the Empress is also lying...

"Hurry up and show me the child." The Queen Mother urged her in a gentle voice.

Aunt Yu smiled and stepped forward to take Brother Xi from the wet nurse's arms and carried her to the Queen Mother.

"No need to be too polite." The queen smiled and spared Yu Zhu's gift, and asked the attendant to bring her a brocade teacup to sit on: "You should be more careful just after confinement."

The Queen Mother hugged Brother Xi and teased him. Seeing that he was not crying or fussing with his dark jade-like eyes, and that he was fair and beautiful, she felt a little fond of him. She casually added to the Queen's words: "That's natural. Confinement is for us."

Women are the most important, especially when it comes to conditioning the body, the effect is excellent."

"What the Queen Mother said is absolutely true." The Queen also leaned over to tease Brother Xi, and said as if she didn't care: "I took good care of the eldest prince after I gave birth to him, and my body is much better now than before I gave birth."

A palace maid next to her hurriedly said: "The eldest prince is a little lucky star."

Yu Zhu saw the corner of the Queen Mother's mouth tightening slightly, and then quickly raised a smile, "I haven't seen the eldest prince for a long time, and the Ai family misses him a little."

The queen's eyes lit up and she hurriedly asked the palace maid to bring the eldest prince over.

Yu Zhu felt uncomfortable at first when he saw the Queen Mother's armored hands. Later, he felt even more uncomfortable when he saw her hugging Brother Xi again. Taking advantage of this moment, he quickly said: "I'd better give it to me. Come in."

I just fed her milk before going to the palace, so I’m afraid I’m going to pee.”

No matter how much she wanted to tease the child, she didn't want to wet her body with urine. After hearing what Yu Zhu said, the Queen Mother quickly asked Aunt Yu to take the child away.

Nurse Zheng was very nervous when she entered the palace for the first time. She lowered her head and took Brother Xi and held her in her arms, her eyes only daring to stare at the gold brick in front of her feet.

Yu Zhu looked at Brother Xi calmly and saw that he was staring at Zheng's embroidered collar with his toothless mouth open, still looking very energetic, so he felt relieved.

It was only a short moment, but it seemed to her that several hours had passed - her beloved was in the hands of a woman she didn't like, and this feeling was not good at all.

At this time, a palace maid came in and said, "The eldest prince is here."

There was a smile on the queen's face, and her eyes followed the little figure gradually approaching the door.

This is the first time Yu Zhu has seen the eldest prince. The two or three-year-old child has red lips and white teeth, and the baby fat on his cheeks is still chubby, but his behavior is somewhat different from ordinary people.

Yu Zhu is willing to interpret this kind of bearing as the royal bastard spirit...

"My grandson sends his regards to the imperial grandmother, and to his mother the queen." After the neat salute, he said this crisply, successfully making the smile on the queen's face deepen.

"Get up quickly." The Queen Mother looked like a loving grandmother. Unfortunately, in Yu Zhu's opinion, it was a failure - the Queen Mother was only in her thirties, and her long-term pampering and proper maintenance made her look older than her actual age.

Small.

In addition, today I am wearing a Ruyi satin embroidered with clouds and wild geese, with a red emerald beaded crest on my head, and a golden step with golden steps. I have applied a little makeup, and sitting next to the queen, I really look like sisters, not like a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law.

Although Yu Zhu looked strange, the Queen Mother didn't seem to notice it at all. She called the eldest prince to her side and asked him carefully what he had done this morning.

Although the eldest prince is young, his articulation is clear, and he can answer the questions without the help of palace attendants.

The queen was nearby and said, "Yier is a stubborn kid, but fortunately he is quite smart..."

The Queen Mother's reaction was always indifferent, she just pointed at Brother Xi and the eldest prince and said with a smile: "A little girl is here today, Yi'er, take a look."

"Little dd? Is he the same as the second brother?" The eldest prince immediately thought of the younger brother he had seen from a distance, raised his head and asked.

The Queen Mother touched his little hand, glanced at the Queen, and said with a smile: "Yes, do you like Yi'er?"

The eldest prince ran over to take a look. Zheng didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly knelt down respectfully, turning Brother Xi's face to the eldest prince.

"She looks different from my second brother." The eldest prince looked at it carefully, thought seriously for a moment, and then said, "But it's still pretty."

It was probably the first time for Brother Xi to see a person who was not so huge. He was a little curious. He kept looking at it with his dark eyes open and kept saying "ah...ah".

The Queen Mother couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and asked the maid to bring a bowl of cheese to the eldest prince.

Suddenly I heard the chamberlain shouting: "The Emperor has arrived."

Then everyone except the Queen Mother quickly stood up. The Queen straightened her clothes a little and went out to greet them.

Yu Zhu was a little at a loss. The Queen Mother comforted her a few words when she saw her: "What are you afraid of? It's not like you haven't seen her before..."

While talking, the young Emperor Yuan Xi entered the Nuan Pavilion.

After sitting down without ceremony, the emperor looked at Brother Xi in Zheng's hand with great interest, and finally stretched out his hand and said: "Come, give me a hug."

Then a personal servant came to Zheng's arms and took the child into his arms and handed it to the emperor.

Yuzhu saw that the queen's face was a little reluctant, and then she noticed a woman in pink palace clothes following the emperor. Although she hadn't seen her for a long time, she still recognized her at a glance as Cui Yueyu, the eldest daughter of her second uncle's family, now Kang Concubine.

.

——Looks like he’s very pampered

Perhaps because she still remembered her cousin, Kang Bin raised her head slightly, blinked at Yu Zhu, and bared her teeth.

"Is this little guy in good spirits?" The emperor happily put Brother Xi on his shoulders and held his little paw that greeted his face.

Brother Xi felt uncomfortable being hugged by the emperor, and became a little anxious. He kicked his legs randomly and screamed "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh". He shook his head slightly in an attempt to break away from the shackles of those big hands.

This amount of strength was completely negligible for an adult man. The emperor could easily hold Brother Xi and still have one hand free to touch his forehead.

"Wow--"

Brother Xi pursed his lips in grievance and cried whenever he wanted. His loud cries echoed in the Nuan Pavilion.

The chamberlain wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped.

"Hey, you have a bad temper." The emperor put him on his lap helplessly, patted Brother Xi's back gently, and taught him a serious lesson: "How can a man cry whenever he wants?"

The Queen Mother couldn't stop laughing. She put a handkerchief on the corner of her eyes and said with a smile: "It will take at least ten years for our brother Xi to grow up into a man who can be taught a lesson by you."

The eldest prince stood on the side politely. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, his eyes still inevitably showed envy and desire.

The emperor smiled, touched Brother Xi's furry head, and said, "I didn't get such good treatment when I was a child."

The Queen Mother's smile slowly faded, and she no longer wanted to think about what happened back then.

After holding him for a while, he saw that Brother Xi had stopped crying and was smacking his little mouth as if he wanted to nurse, so he let the waiter give him to the wet nurse.

Yuzhu noticed that after several years of not seeing each other, this blood cousin had changed a lot. His face had lost the last bit of childishness, his lines were gentle and restrained, and his clear eyes had become as calm as a deep pool, as if nothing could easily make him stir up trouble.

.

After taking a quick look, she lowered her head and looked at the hem of her skirt. Normally, she didn't feel anything about it, but now it was difficult for her to connect the blood-stained boy in his shirt on the night of the Ghost Festival with the Holy Lord of the World in front of her...

The emperor was sitting on a spacious throne with no support on all sides, the queen was standing behind the queen mother, the eldest prince was standing neatly, and Concubine Kang was glaring at her.
