Shitou has been studying with General Wen for some time.
He was born with supernatural powers and had extraordinary talent in archery, and he was not bad at other things. Although he was not good at reading, he was very good at practicing martial arts. General Wen would always praise his young apprentice to everyone he met.
He had seen General Wen use a sword, and now he wanted to demonstrate it to Shanshan. After thinking about it, he quickly got started.
His strength is great, no worse than that of an adult. The heavy sword in his hand is as easy as the grass blades and bamboo sticks that he often plays with in his hands. His posture is tall and straight, following General Wen's teachings, every sword and every sword They all tried their best to exert their strength, each move was magnificent.
Although Shanshan couldn't understand it, it didn't stop her from watching the excitement, clapping her hands vigorously, and her little face flushed with excitement.
The prince also saw it.
He turned his head and asked Shanshan: "Has he learned this before?"
"No." Shanshan said, "Brother Shitou used to be a little beggar, and no one taught him."
After Shitou finished his demonstration, she leaned forward and diligently took out her handkerchief to wipe Shitou's sweat. Shi Shi was panting, sweating profusely, but his eyes were shining.
"I haven't learned it well yet." He said, "Shanshan, when I learn it well, I will show it to you."
"good!"
He looked at the prince again, turned back and asked, "Do you want to play with the rabbit?"
Shanshan looked at him in surprise. Although his expression still didn't change much, she could see that she didn't need to praise him. His previous frustrations and grievances had already been wiped away. Shanshan was confused, but still agreed.
Shitou stretched out his hand, and she took it and said goodbye to the prince obediently: "Brother Prince, let's go."
The prince was still looking at the stone. When he heard the words, he asked, "Shan Shan, do you want to go fishing today?"
"fishing?"
The prince nodded: "The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the streams are sweet, and the fish in the lake are plump. The chefs in the village cook them, and the taste is very good."
Shanshan's eyes lit up when she heard "Lake fish are fat". She didn't agree with anything. She looked up at the stone and saw that the stone nodded, so she couldn't wait to agree.
Then he hurried back to feed the rabbits, changed his clothes, and prepared all his luggage. Then he called Wen Jiahe up and hurried out.
She also met Wen Yiqing on the way out.
Wen Yiqing saw that she had put on her schoolbag, which was bulging with stuff, and looked like she was about to go out. He quickly stopped her and said, "Shanshan, what are you doing?"
Shanshan said anxiously, "Mom, my brother Prince and I are going out to play."
"Didn't you play yesterday?"
"That's different. Yesterday I went to catch rabbits, and today the prince brother took me fishing."
"fishing?"
Wen Yiqing lowered his eyes and looked at the bag on her body. It contained snacks, toy wood carvings, and even a copy of Sun Wukong's storybook.
She asked, "Are you alone?"
"Not just me, but Brother Shitou and Jiahe. Mom, you wait until I fish for you to eat."
Shanshan packed his luggage and waited for a while, fearing that his friends would get impatient and try to run past her, but she stretched out her hand and pulled them back.
Shanshan was at a loss: "Mother?"
Wen Yiqing knelt down and looked at her parallelly. There was no one around, so she whispered: "His Royal Highness is busy with business, so don't pester him. If you want to play, let Shitou accompany you, and don't waste His Highness's time."
She knew her daughter's temperament. She liked to be lively and coquettish. She always wanted people to play with her. She had visited every courtyard in Zhongyongbo's house. She knew that the prince had a heavy workload, not only schoolwork, but also tasks assigned by the emperor, so she was afraid that being kind and ignorant would delay him.
"Brother Prince brought it up himself." Shanshan said quickly, "I didn't ask him, he said he wanted to take me fishing."
"He mentioned it? Remember"
"yes!"
Wen Yiqing hesitated. I also noticed that she even changed the title of His Highness the Crown Prince. "Why do you call His Royal Highness your brother?"
Shanshan said matter-of-factly: "He asked me to shout that."
"His Royal Highness didn't say anything else?"
"What else can I say?"
Wen Yiqing was silent.
Seeing Shanshan's confused look, she felt many complicated emotions in her heart. She also thought that she was still young and couldn't say a word.
Looking at the little girl looking out again, her face full of expectation, she couldn't help but stop her.
I was in a dilemma for a while.
While hesitating, a voice came from behind.
"Shan Shan?"
The two of them looked back and saw the prince standing not far away. He said gently: "I saw that you never came, so I came to find you."
Shanshan said happily: "I'll be here soon!"
"Mom, then I'm leaving?"
Wen Yiqing hesitated.
The prince had already walked over, took the little girl's hand, nodded hello to her, noticed the worry that had not disappeared on her face, and said casually: "Ms. Wen, don't worry, the orphans come to this palace every year, and we will be here Fishing on the lake not far away, Gu will take good care of Shanshan."
Shanshan waved to his mother, carried his backpack, and went out to play with him happily.
Wen Yiqing stood there for a moment, then took a long breath and walked to the Queen Mother's residence.
During these days, the Queen Mother personally ordered her to accompany her.
When we arrived, Her Royal Highness the Princess was already there as expected.
"Why are the Ai family listening? Why is it so lively outside?" The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Are those children again?"
She sat down next to the Queen Mother and said, "His Royal Highness took them out fishing."
"Fishing?" The Queen Mother wrinkled her eyes with a smile: "I have never seen the prince so playful in the past. This year there are many good people, and the palace is also very lively."
"That's right." The eldest princess agreed: "Even Jiahe is much more cheerful these days. In the past, she was not willing to go out."
Queen Mother: "That's fine. I'm just here for a vacation. We are all children, so we should be more relaxed and happy. Not to mention the prince, even the Ai family is a lot more lively."
Wen Yiqing whispered: "I'm just afraid that Shanshan will be playful and delay His Royal Highness's business."
"Prince, this child has always been stable and measured, and will not care about one thing or the other. He is the elder brother, and he always treats his younger brothers and sisters well. His homework is a business matter, and the relationship between brothers and sisters is also a business matter."
The Queen Mother looked at her and saw that she had gentle eyes and lowered her eyes to pick the pieces on the chessboard, and said, "Qing Niang, we won't be playing Go today."
Wen Yiqing stopped and looked up.
"The Ai family remembers that you are from Yuncheng." The Queen Mother said pleasantly: "The Ai family only stays in the palace on weekdays and has never been to places as far away as Yuncheng. Why don't you come and tell me about it."
The eldest princess reached out and made a cup of tea: "Speaking of this, I remembered something."
"Oh?" The Queen Mother said, "You have never been to Yuncheng, what can you think of?"
"It's not mine."
The eldest princess glanced at Wen Yiqing and said, "It's the emperor's brother. After he came back from Jiangnan to handle the case, his taste has changed a lot. Originally, I liked a cook in the palace who made Jiangnan cuisine very well, so I asked him for it. He But he was really stingy and wouldn’t let me do that. He just ordered one and sent me away.”
The Queen Mother was amused by her and pointed at her helplessly: "You..."
Wen Yiqing lowered his eyes and did not interrupt.
After the birthday party, she never saw that person again.
On the one hand, I don’t want to see him, and on the other hand, he doesn’t know how to face it.
Fireworks were indeed her favorite, but she didn't want that person to remember them so clearly. That person is the Nine-Five Supreme, the Lord of the World. It is difficult for ordinary people to reach the sky≈ap;30340 notes; things are just something he can do with a little effort, and setting off fireworks is nothing.
But after she calmed down, she tossed and turned in the middle of the night, trying several times to wake up her little daughter and ask her how she was related to the emperor.
The more upset you are, the more uneasy you are.
Fortunately, after the birthday party, she followed the Queen Mother to the palace, and she could not see that person after leaving the capital. After I went back, I don't know how long it had been. The wind in the capital had become faster and there were countless new things. No one would remember that short-lived fireworks again.
It's been many years since the past happened, so that person should let it go.
Outside the palace.
On the mountain road not far from here, there is a lush forest, and a carriage with guards is slowly driving towards this side.
