"Looking for the tenth princess!"
The round-faced Jiang Baolin put away her peeping glances like a little hamster, and said with bright eyes: "I'm here to see the little prince, and I also want to meet the tenth princess."
"When I was still in the boudoir, I often read the story books of Fufeng Bookstore. I also heard the sisters in the mansion mention the deeds of the ten princesses in their chats. They all said that the ten princesses had great medical skills and were smart and intelligent. Who in the capital didn't know that the ten princesses were beautiful women? Rang Xumei is an existence that is not inferior to that of men."
Aunt Wei asked the wet nurse to carry the little prince down, and Jiang Baolin, who had always been close to Concubine Yu De, grabbed her hand and said excitedly: "Mother, concubine, I heard that the tenth princess made great contributions to the frontier, is it true? "
As the mother-in-law of Li Sixu, Concubine Yu De likes the ten princesses who are praised most by others.
I thought Jiang Baolin was charming and naive, but Concubine Yu De liked her even more: "She is just a girl, how can she achieve any great achievements? The rumors in the market are not trustworthy."
"My dear, you are lying. As soon as the tenth princess returned to the palace yesterday, the news of her great achievements in the frontier fortress spread throughout the harem."
Jiang Baolin counted with his fingers: "I heard that the tenth princess developed a medicine for wound infection at the frontier. That medicine can be used on wounded soldiers and will not let the wounded soldiers die from high fever infection. The tenth princess also found the lost Ma Fei Powdered prescriptions, when treating wounded soldiers, they will not feel unbearable pain and suffer a lot less."
"Also, I also heard that the tenth princess planted many white folding flowers in Lingzhou City, a frontier fortress. The kind of silk wadding that looks like clouds in the sky can be stuffed into clothes to keep the cold away and keep warm. A winter coat from Jinyifang The price is not cheap, but the tenth princess donated hundreds of thousands of winter coats filled with white folds to the army."
"I also heard that the Tang army was able to win the battle this time and Tubo was retreating steadily, all thanks to the lucky star of the tenth princess at the border. When she appeared, the Tubo barbarians were so frightened that they abandoned their armor and refused to fight. And descend."
What are the rumors spreading in this palace?
There are still some shadows in the first few piles. The lucky star in the back said that the Tibetan people were frightened and abandoned their armor when Sisi appeared. It is simply nonsense.
Seeing that she wanted to continue talking, Concubine Yu De looked helpless. She stretched out her hand and touched Jiang Baolin's forehead: "The palace maids and eunuchs are making up storybooks when they are bored. Do you believe this?"
Jiang Baolin's expression became dull: "Ah, isn't it true? I thought it was all true."
Yu Wen Zhaorong, who didn't speak much at the side, couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw her cute look: "You can't blame the palace maid and the eunuch for her miraculous preaching. Not to mention that Sister Jiang has read Fufeng Bookstore's story books. When I was in my boudoir, I also read the story book of Journey to the West, the glass bottles used in the mansion, and the monuments erected in the streets to cure diseases and save people, the shadows of our ten princesses are everywhere."
"She has lived a life that every woman in the boudoir in the capital aspires to. Even if she were a man, he would not live a more free and unrestrained life than her, which is admirable."
Yu Wen Zhaorong smiled and flattered: "Everyone envies the tenth princess, but I only envy the empress for giving birth to a daughter like the tenth princess who is not inferior to men."
When Yuwen Zhaorong mentioned that the ten princesses were not inferior to men, Jiang Baolin, who looked innocent, nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
She answered excitedly: "Yes, yes, it is said in the palace that the princess is worthy of having the blood of the Great Sage and Queen. If she were born as a boy, given her reputation among the courtiers, frontier officers, soldiers and the people, she would definitely be It is an honor for us women to be able to become a being like the Great Sage and Queen."
Jiang Baolin has always been a coquettish person, very naive and ignorant.
All she said was to praise Li Sixu, and Concubine Yu De should have been happy.
But she said that there were rumors in the palace that Li Sixu could become a being like the Great Sage and Queen. Knowing that Wu Zhou's compilation of government was the emperor's biggest taboo, Concubine Yu De couldn't help but feel wary in her heart.
Yuwen Zhaorong was still echoing Jiang Baolin's words. Concubine Yu De had already learned from the empress and concubine Xian to remain calm and did not show her thoughts. The little prince cried, and Concubine Yu De naturally turned her gaze to The prince was held by the nanny.
"Is he hungry?"
"Mother, this slave just fed him."
The nanny said this, and Concubine Yu De took the little prince in his arms: "I think he is sleepy, so I will coax him to sleep."
Concubine Yu De picked up the little prince and rocked the infant child with gentle eyes. Yu Wen Zhaoyi and Jiang Baolin didn't want to disturb her anymore, so they hurriedly found an excuse to say goodbye and leave.
With the birth of the little prince, as the night passed, the cherry blossoms in the Manna Palace seemed to have been summoned by the early blooming cherry blossoms, and they had quietly begun to bud and bloom.
When Yu Wen Zhaorong and Jiang Baolin walked out of the Ganlu Palace, they walked to the uninhabited cherry orchard and saw a cherry blossom in bud at a low place. It was the most beautiful time of blooming.
Yu Wen Zhaorong walked to the foot of the tree and stood on tiptoes to reach the cherry blossom.
Jiang Baolin stopped her: "Sister Zhaorong, there are only a few cherry blossoms in the garden. Isn't it a good idea to break them now?"
"Why is it bad?"
Yu Wen Zhaorong didn't take Jiang Baolin's dissuasion seriously, a fierce light flashed across his eyes, and he folded the cherry blossoms and took them into his hands.
"If you don't fold it down when it's in bud, why don't you wait until it fully blooms and take up all the beauty of the garden?"
There is something in Yu Wen Zhaorong's words: "The Daming Palace should have a hundred flowers blooming and vying for beauty. One flower blooms and another fades. The simple and elegant cherry blossoms shouldn't dominate. What do you think Sister Jiang?"
The round-faced and naive Jiang Baolin stood under the cherry tree, smiling as if she didn't know what was happening in the world: "Sister Zhaorong is right!"
The two of them each broke a cherry blossom, took the cherry blossoms and left.
At this time, Li Sixu turned out from behind the tree and asked Yaoyao beside her: "That round-faced and naive Baolin looks very pleasant, and he looks a bit like my mother and concubine!"
"The princess is right. Perhaps her temperament is somewhat similar to that of the empress. The empress treats her very kindly."
When Yaoyao said this, Li Sixu smiled: "That's really interesting!"
After Yuwen Zhaorong and Jiang Baolin left, Concubine Yu De coaxed the babbling little prince to sleep. When Li Sixu brought Yaoyao into the house, what she saw was her mother-in-law gazing at her with a gentle face. The sleeping royal brother.
When she smiled, the tenderness of maternal love naturally overflowed from her body, leaving Li Sixu stunned.
Such a beautiful mother-in-law should be protected!
It's no wonder that the queen mother thinks so much about them and her daughter, and wants her mother and concubine to live carefree in the palace.
Hearing the footsteps at the door, Concubine Yu De raised her head and greeted her: "You're back from the queen's place? Come and see your imperial brother. When he's sleeping, he looks exactly like when you were born."
Li Sixu sat beside the bed and took the little emperor's brother into her hands.
Concubine Yu De squeezed head to head with her and looked at the sleeping little man in the swaddling clothes. She spoke softly to her: "Just like when I brought you into this world, my concubine also brought your emperor brother into this world." In this world, my mother and concubine don’t know whether this is right or not, and whether she can keep him safe for the rest of his life.”
