Jiang Wan said hello when he came back. Xiao Xi had already gone to the imperial dining room to pick up breakfast and came back to wait. Jiang Wan came back just in time to use it.

Although there is a small kitchen in the Changchun Palace, Jiang Wan didn't want to do anything special. It was just that in the past. It was cold at that time, and the food was cold when she brought the food box back from the imperial kitchen, making it difficult to swallow. And she was pregnant at the time, so even if she It's okay to eat in the small kitchen.

But now that she has given birth to a child and the weather has become hotter, it is better to receive meals in the imperial dining room like everyone else. After all, even the queen and queen mother receive their meals in the imperial dining room.

"Is Chen'er awake?" This was the first time Jiang Wan went out after the child was born. Although she was not far away and came back within an hour, she still couldn't help but ask about the child's condition.

"Reply to the queen, the second prince has woken up, and the nanny is breastfeeding the little prince now." Hongmei replied after hearing Jiang Wan's inquiry.

After hearing Hongmei's answer, Jiang Wan felt relieved and began to sit down for breakfast.

Since I go to say hello too early in the morning, I don’t have time to have breakfast, so I usually eat a few pastries to pad my stomach first, and then have breakfast when I come back after saying hello.

Jiang Wan had just finished breakfast when he didn't expect someone to come from the Queen Mother's side.

"Concubine Hui, the Queen Mother misses her grandson, so she sent an old slave here to carry His Highness the Second Prince." After the visitor from the Queen Mother's Palace bowed to Jiang Wan, he explained his purpose of coming.

The person who came was none other than Eunuch Xu, an old acquaintance. When the Queen Mother gave Jiang Wan a reward, it was him who sent it to her.

"Please sit down for a moment, Eunuch Xu. I will send someone to bring the second prince over." Jiang Wan said, and ordered the maid on the side to ask the wet nurse to bring the child over.

After a while, the nanny came in with the baby in her arms.

Seeing the infant second prince, Eunuch Xu suddenly beamed.

This is the emperor's son, the grandson that their queen mother misses deeply.

Although there were wet nurses and palace maids following her, Jiang Wan was naturally worried because the child was still so young, so she also went to see the Queen Mother and paid her respects to the Queen Mother. Besides, the Queen Mother had given her so many rewards. She had also It was inconvenient to be in confinement, but now that she was out of confinement, it was time to go and thank her.

Although it was already summer, newborn babies were the most fragile and could not withstand a little wind, so the Queen Mother asked Eunuch Xu to prepare a sedan to prevent the second prince from being blown by the wind.

The sedan was carried by four strong eunuchs. The four were specially selected by Eunuch Xu. They were not only steady-tempered, but also strong. The sedan was carried very steadily to ensure that the little prince inside would not be bumped.

Four sedan bearers carried Jiang Wan and Chen'er to the entrance of the Cining Palace where the Queen Mother lived before stopping.

As soon as Jiang Wan got off the sedan, she saw Nanny Qin, who was smiling kindly, leading several palace maids to greet her at the door.

"I have seen Concubine Hui, may I be blessed and safe!"

"I've met Concubine Hui!"

Seeing Jiang Wan come out of the sedan, Nanny Qin and several palace ladies hurriedly saluted.

Jiang Wan had long been accustomed to the palace's rule of bowing and kneeling at every turn. Seeing them paying homage to him, he nodded and told them not to do so.

"No need to be polite."

After Nanny Qin stood up, her eyes fell on Chen'er who was being held by the wet nurse.

This was their emperor's only flesh and blood, their most noble little prince. Thinking of this, her smile became more obvious, and the folds on her face could kill flies.

"The little prince is still young and cannot see the wind. It is better for the queen to take the little prince in first." Mother Qin said.

There is no wind at this time, and the child is still wrapped in swaddling clothes, so even the wind can't blow it. It's just that Grandma Qin cherishes the child and is afraid that the child will make any mistakes.

Since Nanny Qin said so, Jiang Wan nodded.

The Queen Mother, who was waiting in the front hall at this time, had been waiting for a long time. When she saw Jiang Wan coming, she suddenly smiled with joy.

"Chen'er is here!" The Queen Mother looked excitedly at the red swaddle in the nanny's arms.

She was thinking about her sweet grandson, but the child was still young after all, so she didn't dare to let anyone bring the child over. She had only seen her grandson three times in total since he was born.

The first time was when the child was born. At that time, the child was just born and very fragile. She only held the child for a while before giving it to the nanny to take away. The second time was when the child was having three baptisms. She was taken away, but she couldn't get hold of it at all. Although she hugged the child for the third time when the child was full moon, she only held it for a short time. After all, there were many guests at the full moon wine. Although she was the Queen Mother, she couldn't always occupy it. child.

As the Queen Mother, she couldn't go to Jiang Wan's palace to look after the child like her son, so she had to wait until Jiang Wan was out of confinement and the child had grown up before she had someone pick him up.

After not seeing each other for only two days, the Queen Mother felt that her grandson seemed to have grown up a bit. Seeing the little guy in her arms looking at her with his big round eyes, the Queen Mother felt that her heart was about to melt.

With this nose, these eyes, and this chin, the Queen Mother felt that her precious grandson looked almost exactly like her own son when he was a child.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but kiss the little guy's pink and tender face.

While the Queen Mother was teasing Chen'er, Jiang Wan stood aside and watched without disturbing them.

The Queen Mother interacted with Chen'er for a while, and then she had time to turn her attention to Jiang Wan.

"Concubine Hui has made a great contribution to the Ai family and the Emperor by giving birth to Chen'er. The Ai family and the Emperor will remember your contribution."

"The Queen Mother is serious. It is my blessing to give birth to a child for Your Majesty, and it is also my duty as a concubine." Jiang Wan did not feel complacent about the Queen Mother, but replied humbly.

"Good boy!" The Queen Mother was very satisfied to see that she was neither arrogant nor impetuous.

The Queen Mother held the baby for a while. Chen'er seemed to be hungry and began to hum. Seeing this, the Queen Mother reluctantly gave the child to the nanny.

Although she was reluctant to let go of her precious grandson, she was even more reluctant to let her child cry.

Jiang Wan stayed with the Queen Mother for nearly an hour. It wasn't until Chen'er fell asleep that the Queen Mother let her go.

When going back, Jiang Wan naturally sat in the sedan.

The eldest prince Li Yu lives in the prince's residence. Although he is already the emperor's nominal son, he is not young, so except for visiting the queen mother and empress on the first and fifteenth day of every month to pay their respects, he does not come to the harem on weekdays.

"Who is in that sedan?" Li Yu looked at the sedan not far away and asked the eunuch beside him.

"My servant went to inquire." After hearing this, the eunuch ran to inquire.

After a while, he found out the news.

"That's Concubine Hui over there. I heard that the Queen Mother sent someone to take Concubine Hui and the Second Prince to Cining Palace this morning. Concubine Hui must have just come out of Cining Palace."

When he said this, the eunuch felt a little uneasy. After all, who didn't know that due to the birth of the second prince, this person's current status was embarrassing.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor definitely does not intend to appoint him.

He was afraid that this person would be angry after hearing Concubine Hui and her son, and take her anger out on him.

"Concubine Hui is just out of confinement. It seems that the imperial grandmother really loves her brother." Li Yu said, staring at the sedan chair that was walking away in front of him.

Because his grandmother missed him, she sent someone to invite him to have lunch with her, so he came to the harem after morning school, but he didn't expect to meet Concubine Hui by chance.

Li Yu's so-called grandmother was, of course, not the Queen Mother, but his biological grandmother, Prince Yu's biological mother, Concubine Xiao.

Li Yu knew that the Queen Mother did not like him, so except for going to greet the Queen Mother on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, he rarely went to the Queen Mother on weekdays. After all, he knew that no matter how he tried to please her, it would be useless. In her heart, He has never been her biological grandson.

"Let's go." Li Yu suppressed the disgust in his eyes, turned around and walked towards Mrs. Xiao's residence.

Seeing that he didn't have an attack, the eunuch breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed behind him.
