But even if she knew this, Gu Xuan was just a child. No matter how angry Princess Fukang was, she couldn't say anything to a child. Her face turned blue and white, which was very exciting.
"Okay, today is Xiangjia's third birthday. What are you doing here on such a beautiful day? It's just children playing around, it's perfectly normal."
The Queen Mother smoothed things over at this time, and everyone returned to their original seats while echoing.
Although Xie Ziyue felt sorry for the injury on her daughter's hand, seeing that Wu Zekai's face looked like a little tabby cat and her eyes were swollen from crying, she felt that her daughter was not at fault, so she stepped forward and wrapped her hand with a handkerchief.
At this time, Mrs. Zhenbei Hou saw her grandson still standing there and looking at Princess Xiangjia, and she suddenly laughed secretly:
"Yan Zhuo, why are you still standing here? Why don't you follow your mother to the table?"
As the people around her were almost gone, Xie Ziyue followed the voice of Mrs. Zhenbei Hou and happened to see Yan Jude looking towards her side.
Different from the previous young master who was dressed in splendid clothes and jade robes, the slightly older Yanzhui has a slimmer face, delicate facial features, and noble eyebrows, and his future demeanor can be vaguely seen.
Xie Ziyue remembered that she had met this young master before, and that he had helped her daughter this time, so she hugged Gu Xuan and stepped forward and said:
"Thanks to Crown Prince Yan today, A-Xuan, why don't you quickly say thank you to Crown Prince Yan?"
Gu Xuan blinked her curled eyelashes, and stared at Yan Zui with her big, watery eyes. She looked up at her white and rosy little face and smiled broadly at him:
"Thank you, Brother Prince."
The voice was soft and sweet, and there was no hint of the heroic spirit that had just been pushed to the ground and beaten.
Yan Zui, who had been looking upright just now, saw Gu Xuan's appearance at such a close distance and heard the words "Brother, Crown Prince" again. His whole body was like steamed shrimps, and his face and ears suddenly turned red.
Feeling embarrassed, he immediately grabbed his grandmother's leg and quickly hid his face.
There is only one single Miao Miao in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. When he was a child, he was wild and reckless. When he was a little older, he was upright. Have you ever seen him like this?
Mrs. Zhenbei Hou was so amused by her grandson that she saw that he buried his head and refused to see anyone, so she smiled and said to Xie Ziyue:
"The eldest princess of Xiangjia is so cute. My grandson has never seen such a cute little girl. It makes the imperial concubine laugh."
After saying this, her eyes were full of smiles, and her tone of voice when speaking to Xie Ziyue was thousands of times better than when she spoke to the Queen Mother and Princess Fukang before.
"Nothing," Xie Ziyue also found it interesting. She lowered her head to see her little daughter wearing a flower bud on her head and holding her clothes with her little hands. She also thought she was very cute.
After all, Yan Zui was still young, and there was only one child in the house. It was normal to be shy when seeing a little girl. Xie Ziyue quite liked the child, so she said a few more words before preparing to go back with Gu Xuan in her arms.
Hearing Xie Ziyue say that she wanted to go back to the table, Yan Zui couldn't care less about being shy, and quickly turned around to look at Gu Xuan, stumbling and saying: "No...you're welcome."
Then he blushed even more fiercely, looking at Zhenbei Hou Madam and her daughter-in-law, who laughed secretly in their hearts. Even after returning to the table, they were still wondering.
Although the Zhenbeihou Mansion only had one child, Mrs. Zhenbeihou's natal brother had a little daughter, and she didn't see her son being so rare.
However, the eldest princess Xiangjia inherited the imperial concubine, and she could already see her future appearance at a young age. The little girl from her brother's family could not compare with her.
After all, the two children are young now. Mrs. Zhenbei Hou and the old lady didn't think much about it at all. They just thought that their boy turned out to be a beauty control. They wanted to find a handsome little book boy for him in the future.
However, the two of them never thought that their idea was not implemented. Yan Zhui would soon be sent to the palace as a companion at the age when he should enter school, and there would be no need to find a book boy for him.
To say that bringing Yan Zui into the palace as a companion was an oolong incident at Gu Xuan's birthday party. Wu Zesheng and Wu Zekai were so arrogant at a young age. It's time for enlightenment.
Princess Fukang's consort came from a Qingliu family. Although his son married the princess, the old man had high hopes for his two grandsons.
After hearing what happened at the banquet, the old man personally came forward and asked to take his two grandsons to study.
How could Princess Fukang be willing to live in poverty while studying?
So there was a lot of excitement in the mansion all day long. Finally, the prince-in-law couldn't stand it anymore and went to the palace in person to ask Emperor Xianzong of Han Dynasty to open an imperial college.
Taixue is a place where officials of the third rank and above and children of the royal family study and be entrusted with education. Teachers are assigned here according to the age and academic level of these children. It was opened in all dynasties after the princes and grandsons grew older.
Because Han Xianzong had few heirs, it had never been opened.
The son of Princess Fukang is also a member of the royal family. The princess is unwilling to hand over her son to her father-in-law for instruction, and only wants to let go of the imperial education.
The reason why she was willing to relent was because she felt that Han Xianzong would not agree to open it now.
Unexpectedly, after hearing the prince's intention, Emperor Xianzong of the Han Dynasty actually agreed.
It's just that I only let Wu Zesheng go. Wu Zekai is still too young, so he should stay at home for a while first.
The prince-in-law was overjoyed. Even if his son could be well educated, it would be a great blessing.
Emperor Xianzong of the Han Dynasty then asked Wu Zesheng to enter the palace and enter the Imperial Academy, and also selected the princes of other princes to enter the palace to show the emperor's favor.
Among them, Gu Cheng, the legitimate son of the Sixth Prince, was also there, so Han Xianzong waved his hand and selected Yan Zhuo as Gu Cheng's companion, and several royal children were arranged to enter the Imperial College.
Other families are fine. Being able to enter the Imperial Academy is a sign of great favor from the emperor.
Princess Fukang, on the other hand, was so angry that she almost pouted and started a quarrel with her consort in the palace. When other ministers of the third rank and above heard that the Taixue was about to be opened, they also tried their best to stuff their children and grandchildren into it. All of a sudden, the nobles in the capital were walking around. frequently……
Of course, this is all a story for later.
Princess Fukang heard that her eldest son was going to be sent to the palace, and she was ready to go to the palace to see her mother to plead for mercy that day. Who knew that before she could leave the princess' mansion, a big event came out.
——The inspector who escaped from Huizhou secretly was found in Zuo Xiang's mansion.
At that time, the inspector happened to be inspecting Huizhou, and many people knew about it. Later, the plague in Huizhou became more serious. The left prime minister came to court every day with a sad face, and many colleagues secretly greeted him.
Everyone thought it would be bad luck as an inspector, but it turned out that this man didn't stay in Huizhou properly at all, but escaped when the plague broke out in Huizhou, and was hid in the mansion by the left prime minister!
Even though the plague has been suppressed now, the severity of this incident has not diminished. The incident spread to the harem of the former dynasty and even among the people, causing an uproar.
The left prime minister is his mother's natal family. Such a big thing happened. How could Princess Fukang dare to enter the palace?
He immediately asked someone to close the door of the Princess Mansion, and told him not to go out unless there was nothing to do recently. He was preparing to lower the sense of presence in the whole house and spend this turbulent time.
