Chapter 124(2/3)
"I'm here to see Concubine Zhen and Concubine Yun."
The crisp and beautiful voice of the beautiful woman was very pleasant. Chu Yanzi couldn't help but look at her carefully. Not to mention her appearance, she could not be cultivated overnight by relying on her demeanor alone. The Shen family also invested in order to fight for a voice in this harem.
"Get up." The person who spoke was Yun Fei. Her expression was soft, but her eyes were a bit profound. "How could Shen Ronghua have a good mood today and come to visit the Imperial Garden?"
"The peach blossoms are blooming just now. Yesterday, the emperor said he liked to eat peach blossom cakes. The concubine thought of going to the peach forest behind the imperial garden to pick some peach blossom petals and make peach blossom cakes."
After saying this, Shen Ronghua smiled, calm and luxurious, dignified and charming, and spoke with some humility, "I didn't expect to meet two empresses today, which is really a blessing for concubines."
Chu Yanzi pulled the corner of her mouth and showed a smile. No one knew that the person who loved peach blossoms the most in this harem was Zhenfei, and everyone in the world knew that the emperor now loves plum blossoms the most. He could tell Shen Ronghua that he liked peach blossom cake. Either Shen Ronghua carefully observes it or that Emperor Yong is very satisfied with her.
No matter which one it is, it means that Shen Ronghua should not be underestimated.
After all, even Chu Yanzi herself was told by the system that she could know Emperor Yong’s preferences, which coincided with him.
But one thing is, now winter is already coming, where can peach blossoms come from?
"Why should Shen Ronghua be so overly humble? They are all her sisters." Yun Fei looked at her decent appearance and took her words, and then continued, "Since Shen Ronghua has something to do in the Imperial Garden, then the two of them in this palace will not delay Shen Ronghua. Shen Ronghua please do it yourself."
"Yes, I will take my leave first."
Chen Ronghua had only happened to see Concubine Yun and the others here. In order to fulfill his etiquette, he came to greet him. Chen Ronghua kept a perfect smile and raised his eyes, but he bumped into Concubine Yun's gaze. Seeing the deep meaning in Concubine Yun's eyes, Chen Ronghua paused, narrowed his eyes, and the two of them were about to leave.
Looking at Chen Ronghua's performance, Concubine Yun seemed to be sure of something, but she still watched Chen Ronghua leave.
"What puzzle are you fighting?"
Seeing that Chen Ronghua had already walked away, Concubine Yun was still staring at her back. Thinking of Concubine Yun's performance just now, Chu Yanzi raised her eyebrows. Concubine Yun was such a passionate person in the past.
"I'm just thinking about who was the one who invited Ji Baolin out of the palace that day."
Concubine Yun was back and forth by Chu Yanzi's voice. After listening to her question, she answered Qianqian.
The smile on Chu Yanzi's face became lighter, his voice seemed heavy and dark, and he was as soft as usual, "Are you sure?"
“**Never leave ten.”
With just this sentence, Chu Yanzi knew that Concubine Yun was very sure. She took a sip of tea and looked at Chen Ronghua, who was like a fairy among flowers in the peach forest in the distance, with a sarcasm and laughter flashing in her eyes. The path she had taken had not been planned to let others go as well.
"What is sister planning to do?"
Concubine Yun did not answer Chu Yanzi, but looked at her, her voice still soft, "Don't get involved in this matter, I have my own plans."
Chu Yanzi was helpless and shrugged, with a smile on his face, "Okay, my sister is waiting to watch the show."
Concubine Yun laughed, "When will you change your personality of watching the fun?"
"I'm afraid I can't change it anymore. This deep palace is just this interesting thing."
At this time, Chu Yanzi's voice seemed a little far away, so far away that Concubine Yun was a little unreal. Concubine Yun curled her smile, looked at Chu Yanzi, and looked a little serious, and said word by word,
"Then don't change it."
The tea in his hand shook lightly, and the back of his hand seemed a little wet, but Chu Yanzi didn't care about it. He just looked at the ripples that disappeared on the water surface in the cup for a long time, and said nothing for a long time.
Jujiu Palace
Chu Yanzi held the rattle in his hand, shaking it gently, teasing Nian'er, standing by the bed, bent down slightly, and leading him to climb over. Nian'er has been seven months old now, and he can already crawl in five or six months, but for some reason, he is usually very lazy and doesn't move easily.
"Nian'er, come here, come here quickly, let your mother hug you."
It seemed that he heard someone calling him a name. He turned his head slowly. When he saw Chu Yanzi, his eyes lit up, his eyes curled up, and he cried out "yayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayaya
Chu Yanzi was so angry that he laughed at him. He threw down the rattle and turned around and wanted to go back and lie on the soft couch. She had teased her for a whole morning, and she felt a little tired, but before she could lift her steps, Nian'er behind her screamed "bum".
Chu Yanzi was shocked and turned around and saw that Nian'er seemed to think she was leaving. Her little face wrinkled, and her hands and feet crawled towards her with the ground. Chu Yanzi laughed out loud, quickly stepped forward and caught him.
Nian'er held Chu Yanzi's neck, as if she was holding Chu Yanzi, her eyes were smiling, and her saliva made Chu Yanzi's face covered. Chu Yanzi frowned and let him do whatever he wanted. After a while,
"Fortunately you are your mother's biological son."
Nian'er slapped Chu Yanzi, as if she was imitating Chu Yanzi to speak, "Ya...ha... cold..."
Chu Yanzi paused on his face, and he looked up at Nian'er stiffly. His eyes were very bright, as if they were shining, and his voice was trembling slightly.
"Nian'er, what did you just say?"
But Nian'er couldn't understand her words and still shouted "yayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayaya
Even so, Chu Yanzi was still ecstatic. He held Nian'er with both hands, turned his head to look at Bai Hua, and asked her excitedly, "Bai Hua, did you hear me just now? Nian'er called me, he called me 'mother', Bai Hua, I heard it right?"
"No, the empress heard it right, I heard it too. The little prince did call me 'mother'." Bai Hua looked at Chu Yanzi with a smile on his face, but there was a slight sourness in his eyes, but this sourness disappeared completely when he saw Chu Yanzi's uncontrollable smile.
"What's wrong? I heard Ayan's laughter as soon as I came in."
As soon as Emperor Yong stepped into the inner hall, he saw Chu Yanzi's involuntary smile and couldn't help but be surprised. What could make Ayan so happy?
"Emperor!" Chu Yanzi's eyes lit up when she saw Emperor Yong. She was in a happy mood at this time and just wanted to share it with others. She didn't care about the matter of paying tribute. She handed the Nian'er in her hand to Emperor Yong, and then said excitedly,
"Emperor, Nian'er just called me, he called me "Mother", Emperor!"
Emperor Yong held Nian'er in one hand, and Chu Yanzi pulled his other arm, and his tone could not hide his excitement. It was obvious that he could only see Chu Yanzi's sleeves were so tight that he could hold his sleeves. However, Emperor Yong didn't care about his sleeves, and he focused all his mind on Chu Yanzi's words. After listening, he was surprised.
"really?"
"Of course it's true. The emperor doesn't believe it, but ask Bai Hua and others." Chu Yanzi suddenly let go of Emperor Yong's sleeves in anger. At this time, she was in great pleasure. Emperor Yong's words were like pouring a basin of cold water on her. How could she be happy?
Seeing this, Emperor Yong quickly reached out to hold Chu Yanzi, handed the little prince to Bai Hua who came up, and laughed, "I just felt a little surprised. Why is Ayan angry?"
Chu Yanzi glanced at Emperor Yong. After all, he was a little unhappy about his words. He pounded him lightly. Seeing him pretending to be painful, he curled his lips and finally stopped. However, because of Emperor Yong's words, he calmed down and was not as excited as before.
After calming down, Chu Yanzi wanted Nian'er to shout again, break free from Emperor Yong's arms, walk over and sit on the soft couch, signaling Bai Hua to put Nian'er on it, and then hold Nian'er himself and let him sit down.
As soon as Nian'er saw Chu Yanzi, she laughed so hard that she couldn't see her eyes. She made Chu Yanzi laugh. Thinking of her purpose, Chu Yanzi softened her voice and coaxed her.
"Come on, Nian'er, and shout with your mother, 'Mother'--"
Emperor Yong also stood behind Chu Yanzi, waiting for Nian'er's movements, and held his breath slightly. Only then did he realize that he was also a little nervous and looking forward to it.
Nian'er's clapping movement slowly stopped, and she looked at Chu Yanzi carefully, as if she found that his mother was not playing with him, so she couldn't help but pout. Then she heard his mother say "mother", frowned, and then read it out.
"Liao, kiss...mother... kiss..." He looked very well-behaved, revealing his two teeth that had just grown, which was very painful.
When I first passed, I was still a little unclear, but when I was second passed, it became clearer.
Chu Yanzi smiled instantly, looked at Emperor Yong proudly, then kissed Nian'er, and shouted with a dear heart. Emperor Yong frowned, feeling a little sad, I don't know if it was for the little prince or for Chu Yanzi.
Especially Chu Yanzi said from the side, "Your Majesty, have you heard it?"
Emperor Yong touched his nose, looked at Chu Yanzi, suddenly approached her, and said, "Then let him call him 'Father'."
When Chu Yanzi heard Emperor Yong's request, he turned over and looked at him, but saw a little expectation in his eyes. His eyes paused, but it was only a moment, and then he smiled as a clever smile.
"I don't want it, the emperor will do it himself."
Emperor Yong was choked by her words, and finally he approached Nian'er, with gentleness in his eyes and a low voice, "Nian'er, follow the father, the father--"
"……mother."
Nian'er's eyes followed Chu Yanzi, and he didn't look at Emperor Yong at all. Emperor Yong looked at him and glanced at Chu Yanzi, but it made Chu Yanzi laugh. He was held by Emperor Yong and said half-threateningly.
"Ayan, come quickly."
"Ahem, Nian'er, Father--"
Nian'er puffed her mouth, tears in her eyes. Why didn't her mother play with me? She reached out to touch her. Chu Yanzi grabbed her little hand and then she screamed after a while.
"Father--"
"Emperor...Emperor..." Nian'er clapped her hands happily, then moved towards Chu Yanzi, leaning in her arms and refused to come out.
Chu Yanzi held back his laughter and went to see Emperor Yong's expression. Then he hugged Nian'er and said coquettishly, "Emperor, Nian'er is still young. In a while, he will call someone."
Emperor Yong sat on the soft couch, gently stroked the little prince, and then said with some depression, "I'm still young, why did you call you?"
Chu Yanzi poked Emperor Yong's chest and muttered, "Maybe because I have been with him for a long time?"
As soon as these words were said, Emperor Yong didn't know how to speak anymore. If he continued, he might make the beauty angry. By chance, Bai Lu brought up the peach blossom cake at this time, and Emperor Yong changed the topic.
"I haven't tasted peach blossom cake in Ayan Palace for a long time, but I miss it a little."
It would be fine if you didn't mention the peach blossom cake. When you mentioned it, Chu Yanzi suddenly remembered that Shen Ronghua, whom he met in the Imperial Garden half a month ago, glanced at Emperor Yong. His eyes were a little dangerous, and there seemed to be a smile in his voice, but when he listened carefully, he would find a hint of chill.
"I'm afraid the emperor has eaten enough in other palaces, and has long forgotten the taste of the peach blossom cake in my concubine's palace."
Emperor Yong was confused by her words. What did this mean? He asked in confusion, "How can Ayan explain this?"
Chu Yanzi gently pushed Emperor Yong away, Emperor Yong sternly withdrew his hand, and looked at Chu Yanzi's actions, she handed the little prince to the nurse, signaling her to take the little prince down for meals, and then turned to look at Emperor Yong.
"Half a month ago, I met Shen Ronghua in the Imperial Garden. I heard that the emperor said he liked to eat peach blossom cake and went to pick peach blossoms himself. I wonder if the emperor felt Shen Ronghua's good intentions afterwards?"
Emperor Yong frowned, really couldn't remember when he said this to Shen Ronghua. Just as he wanted to explain, he heard Chu Yanzi continue to say,
"I don't know. It turns out that the emperor actually likes to eat peach blossom cake. I thought that it was just that I like to eat it, so the emperor was just spoiling me. Now it seems that I am thinking too much."
This unclear speech made Emperor Yong's heart tremble. At this time, he didn't know how to answer Chu Yanzi. People's hearts were biased. At this time, Emperor Yong couldn't help but blame Chen Ronghua for talking too much in front of Chu Yanzi.
"When did I tell Chen Ronghua this? Ayan, don't trust others easily."
"Really?" Chu Yanzi looked at him squintly, with some dangers hidden in his eyes.
Emperor Yong pulled her over and asked her to sit down, gently hugged her with one hand, lowering her ear, "It's really not."
Chu Yanzi didn't know what to think, but she showed a smile on her face, turning the matter over.
