After leaving the Regent's Palace, Shui Yunxi came out to escort her.
Across a carriage, Lu Qingtang and Shui Yunxi chatted. He was riding on horseback, his back straight and looking very heroic.
"General Shui is really young and promising. I heard the prince mention your name before when I was in the palace, but I thought you were a burly man." Lu Qingtang said and laughed.
Shui Yunxi raised the corners of his lips slightly, "Then the princess can see clearly now, is this subordinate a strong man or a young man?"
As he said this, both of them laughed in unison.
At this time, a carriage on the opposite side blocked their way. The person in the carriage stepped out, a slightly stout man.
The man was born with a deer head and rat eyes, which is not a good thing at first glance.
Lu Qingtang left the palace secretly, not wanting anyone to know her identity, so he winked at Shui Yunxi.
Shui Yunxi has been immersed in official circles with his father since he was a child. He naturally knows how to read people's faces and understands them immediately.
He got off his horse, stepped forward and clasped his fists at the man, saying, "I've met Prince An Guo."
"Who is this?"
Anguo Gong's eldest son Dong Chengbin raised his chin towards the carriage where Lu Qingtang was sitting, his eyes shining brightly.
Shui Yunxi smiled, "My cousin, I escorted her back to her parents' home just after her confinement."
Dong Chengbin said "Oh", and then said: "Let's go quickly, I thought she was a yellow girl!"
Shui Yunxi handed over his hand again, "Then we'll leave first."
After getting on the horse, Shui Yunxi waved and the carriage started driving again.
Seeing that person walking away, Shui Yunxi said, "Princess Chen, Dong Chengbin is gone."
"Where did this thing come from? Why haven't I heard of it?" Lu Qingtang opened the curtain and asked Shui Yunxi.
When he heard "this thing", Shui Yunxi couldn't help but laugh, "His Majesty had a wife, Mrs. Dong, when he was in the dormitory. However, she died in childbirth after giving birth to the prince, and then she married her step-brother, and now she is. The Queen. The Dong family was also the Queen named after His Majesty ascended the throne. It was just to give the Crown Prince some face. However, the Dong family calls itself the head of the country. The Dong Chengbin just now is the nephew of the late Queen. She loves to mess with innocent girls, so I can only He said that the princess is my cousin who is in confinement, so please don’t blame her."
"I understand this, and I have to thank you for your help." Lu Qingtang said, and then asked, "Is this Dong Chengbin married?"
Shui Yunxi immediately understood what Lu Qingtang was thinking, and said: "As the princess wishes, no one will marry a girl to such a family without getting married."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and then Shui Yunxi added: "Leave this Dong Chengbin to me. I will definitely make the princess's plan perfect."
"Thank you very much, cousin!" Lu Qingtang raised his eyebrows at Shui Yunxi.
Shui Yunxi also responded tacitly: "You're welcome, cousin."
…
Back at Longqing Palace, Lu Qingtang hugged the two children and went to have lunch with the Queen Mother. After lunch, he went back to the side hall to rest.
Su Mu couldn't help but ask: "Why can't the prince know about this matter? The prince is our Mo Mo Mo Bao's biological father. If his son is bullied, the prince will naturally not sit idly by."
"That's his biological sister, what do you want him to do? He can only get angry, and it will also affect me from drawing my sword!" Lu Qingtang leaned on the Arhat's bed, his eyes full of sternness.
Now he doesn't know about his relationship with Concubine Ning. It's really embarrassing for him to be caught in this kind of thing.
Although she knew that Mo Zeshen would never spare Mo Xinyuan, the most she could do was slap him a few times, which really couldn't relieve the hatred in her heart.
Only then did Su Mu understand. She sighed, feeling that it was unfair.
In the past, she only thought that Lu Qingtang had a simple mind, but after this period of time, she found that these people were targeting them like this, and if they had a simple mind, they would have been eaten alive.
Just trying to survive in the palace or the palace is really too tiring.
Lu Qingtang squinted for a while. When he woke up, he saw that the time was almost up, so he changed his clothes, asked the nanny to hold the child, and followed her to His Majesty's Hall of Wende.
Counting the time, His Majesty woke up from his nap at about this time, and was naturally very happy after seeing the child. It happened that the queen was also there, and the three of them talked about the birthday of Princess Qingle Mo Xinyuan next month.
"I know that Yuan'er is suffering outside the palace, so it's hard to be strict with her etiquette. However, she is very sensible. Under the guidance of the teacher, she learned many palace rules and etiquette very quickly." The queen smiled. , the corners of the eyes and the tips of the eyebrows are all gentle.
Lu Qingtang nodded, "Sister Yuan is sensible, and I hope she can bring some happiness to Concubine Ning."
Emperor Kang Yuan sighed, "Hey, I am now sixteen years old. I really don't know what Concubine Ning was thinking at the time. She insisted on letting her live outside the palace. Now that she has made it so big, she still doesn't know some basic etiquette, and she still doesn't know some basic etiquette. You have to be taught.”
After hearing this, the Queen quickly followed her advice and said a lot of good things about Concubine Ning.
During this period, Lu Qingtang didn't answer the conversation. He just listened and played with Mo Bao and Mo Mo's fleshy arms.
The two babies were fed well and were very cute. Emperor Kang Yuan soon opened his heart.
"The queen is right, I just need to worry about the queen."
Emperor Kang Yuan reached out to take the calligraphy treasure, holding it in his arms like a heart, with a smile on his face, which looked completely different from the majestic Emperor Kang Yuan in the court.
Lu Qingtang held Mo Mo with one hand and grabbed her feet with the other, and said casually: "Speaking of sister Yuan, as a sister-in-law, I actually feel quite guilty. Seeing that she is uncomfortable in the palace, I feel bad. Who is she? Once you’re used to living outside, it’s inevitable that you won’t get used to it for a while.”
"Princess Chen is right. I hope this birthday party will help her integrate into palace life as soon as possible." The queen looked at Mo Mo with a smile and stretched out her hands to hug her.
Lu Qingtang conveniently put Mo Mo into the Queen's arms, and then continued: "In fact, it is not difficult for Sister Yuan to adapt to the palace environment, but we cannot rush it. Besides, her birthday only happens once a year. I still hope that Sister Yuan can be happy. It’s better to live it up.”
"Well, yes, it's better not to hold the birthday party in the palace this time, and let the children run wild outside the palace!" Emperor Kang Yuan said and looked at the queen.
The queen also nodded and smiled in agreement.
Lu Qingtang immediately laughed and reached out to tease Mo Bao's hand, "Grandpa Huang's proposal is really good, isn't it Mo Bao? Grandpa Huang is the most wise and powerful."
When Mo Bao saw his mother smiling at him, he naturally laughed so much that he made a gurgling sound, which immediately made Emperor Kang Yuan very happy.
"Okay, I have told you that Princess Qingle's birthday will be held outside the palace this time!" Emperor Kang Yuan said and stood up, holding Mo Bao affectionately in his arms.
Lu Qingtang smiled, his eyes dimmed as he lowered his eyes.
Mo Xinyuan, your good days are coming!
