As soon as Xie Ziyue said these words, Han Xianzong was slightly startled, and then said in confusion:
"According to common sense, other princes and princesses in the palace will not sleep with their concubines after they are born."
Generally, princes and princesses are taken by their wet nurses to rest in the side hall after they are born. There are few like Xie Ziyue who sleep with their daughters beside them for nearly three years.
Not to mention in the palace, it is rare even in the homes of ministers.
"A-Xuan doesn't follow common sense either." Xie Ziyue said casually: "Let's give it some time, A-Xuan is still too young now."
She herself didn't trust her to put her in a side hall to rest. Not only was her daughter inseparable from her, she was also inseparable from this little guy.
Han Xianzong didn't say anything after hearing this. He just said casually that in fact he also liked to sleep with the little one, which gave him a very novel experience.
He still had many things to deal with. Xie Ziyue was waiting to put on his robe neatly, and the palace servants below had ordered someone to lay out a table of light dishes.
After breakfast, he went to the imperial study room feeling refreshed.
Xie Ziyue went back to bed and slept with her daughter.
She got up early in the morning to serve Emperor Xianzong of the Han Dynasty in dressing her. She didn't wake up at all and fell asleep not long after lying on the bed.
When he regained consciousness, he felt a little warmth on his face.
Xie Ziyue opened her eyes slightly and saw her daughter lying on the bed kissing her face. While kissing her, she rolled up her hair and scratched her neck.
The arc of her eyes opening was extremely slight. Gu Xuan didn't notice it yet and continued to "harass" her with her hair.
Seeing her daughter frowning in confusion, Xie Ziyue suppressed a smile, but actually moved her hands secretly, and took her into her arms while the little guy who was causing trouble on her wasn't paying attention.
Gu Xuan was startled, and she immediately realized that her mother-in-law was teasing her, and she hummed: "Mother-in-law, pretend to be asleep to scare me~"
Now that she had taken the initiative to expose herself, Xie Ziyue stopped pretending. She opened her beautiful eyes, looked at Gu Xuan sleepily, and said lazily:
"It's not you who woke up the concubine."
Gu Xuan was hugged by Xie Ziyue and was currently lying in the arms of her mother-in-law. She was laughing, circling Xie Ziyue's thin white neck and pecking her face randomly.
Xie Ziyue felt warm in her heart at first, but seeing that she kept kissing her endlessly, she helplessly fixed her and lifted her up:
"Get up soon, little rascal."
"Concubine, I want to play with sandbags." Gu Xuan rolled her eyes when she saw her concubine looking at her dotingly, knowing that she would be most likely to agree to the request at this time, so she said immediately.
"There isn't one here either." Xie Ziyue looked helpless: "Do you want me to make one for you?"
"Concubine, you are the most beautiful~" Although Gu Xuan is young, she has been able to say flattering words since she was a child because of the memory of her previous life.
Regardless of age, no woman can resist compliments on her appearance, not to mention the compliments coming from her most precious daughter.
Xie Ziyue stared at her helplessly: "You know how to bully your mother-in-law."
So after a while, the maids and eunuchs from the top and bottom of Weiyang Palace gathered in front of the palace. There were several maids on the left and right sides. The eunuchs occasionally stepped in to help throw sandbags.
Gu Xuan was held in the middle by her mother-in-law and Tao Xiang, changing her position according to the direction of the sandbag.
Throwing sandbags requires skill, not only to make the princess and the empress happy, but also to be careful not to hit them.
Gu Xuan had a great time playing, holding her mother's hand and dodging left and right, her laughter as clear as a silver bell.
When she got tired, Taoxiang and Xin Zhangjing stood in the middle.
The previous palace maids and eunuchs were polite to their masters, but these two were not.
They were all fired up. Taoxiang and Xin Zhangjing were beaten in the past and were beaten in the past. Everyone in Weiyang Palace burst into laughter with loud laughter.
The eunuch and maid guarding the door of Weiyang Palace heard the laughter inside and couldn't help but look inside. Seeing a group of them laughing and laughing, she felt very itchy in her heart.
Alas, they are also unlucky, today it is their turn to guard the goal.
Since the princess went out to play for a short time, the games played in the palace every day were very interesting and varied.
Everyone in Weiyang Palace was happy, and everyone looked forward to playing with the princess and empress.
They are jealous now.
"What are you looking at?" The eunuchs were looking in when they suddenly heard Concubine De's voice.
Looking back, Concubine De was standing at the door looking at them in confusion.
"This slave pays homage to Concubine De..."
Before they could finish their words, Concubine De interrupted: "Okay, okay, keep guarding."
During the time they were replying, Concubine De had already heard the laughter and laughter coming from inside.
She loved the excitement the most. At this time, her heart was itching. She couldn't wait for the little eunuchs' replies, so she directly lifted up her skirt and went in.
With the participation of De Fei, everyone obviously had more fun, and they didn't stop until they were sweating profusely.
Concubine De couldn't get enough of it and said she would come again tomorrow. Before Xie Ziyue said anything, Gu Xuan jumped to a consensus and winked at Concubine De, feeling very happy.
After the two settled down, they both looked at Xie Ziyue. What else could Xie Ziyue do?
Of course I agreed.
After agreeing, Xie Ziyue sent someone to fetch water for Gu Xuan to bathe in order to avoid catching a cold.
Gu Xuan was laughing, and Xie Ziyue threw her on the bed after washing her.
Concubine De has not gone back yet, so she is sitting here chatting with Xie Ziyue.
That's all it takes to say it, but it's faster for two people to sit together and pass the time than alone.
Because of the plague, everyone in the harem is in danger, but things are still calm so far. But it was different in the previous dynasty.
Han Xianzong has been dealing with the plague in Huizhou, and he is extremely busy every day. It is almost the beginning of spring when he steps into the harem again.
He also heard Xie Ziyue mention that Ah Xuan's birthday was approaching, and suddenly thought that he planned to become a queen in spring, so he summoned the Minister of Rites to discuss it the next day.
The epidemic in Huizhou was well controlled, and the imperial doctors also temporarily developed a decoction to control it. Although there were countless casualties, it did not affect too many places.
Nowadays, when people talk about Han Xianzong, no one does not give a thumbs up. They all praise Han Xianzong for being diligent in serving the people and loving the people like a son.
In short, his reputation among the people is excellent now.
Now is indeed the best time to stand up.
He summoned these ministers and expressed his intention to re-establish a queen.
The Minister of Rites and the Minister of Rites looked at each other. The next second, the Minister of Rites became a little embarrassed and said:
"Your Majesty, I can understand your feelings for the Imperial Concubine and the veterans... But the Imperial Concubine's family background is really average. If such a woman were to become a queen, I'm afraid it would be detrimental to both the court and the country."
If a woman from an ordinary background is a beloved concubine, that's fine.
But the mother of the country is different. Such a noble status as the mother of the country must be matched by a noble status.
