Concubine De is dressed in a golden silk pink butterfly palace dress, with high temples and emerald pearls inserted obliquely.

"Your Majesty." She looked at the bustling crowd below with a smile, and sighed, "It's rare for a family to get together so well today. It really reminds me of the past. When we got married, it was so lively. .”

Although Concubine De was a side concubine when she married the current emperor, because of the respected status of her mother's family, she belonged to a big clan in the south of the Yangtze River that has continued since the Chengzu period, so the emperor married in eight sedan chairs to show respect.

The word "family" was regarded as pleasing to the emperor, Concubine De glanced at the emperor quietly as she spoke, and continued after seeing him looking far into the distance as if thinking about something but not stopping it.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember General Guide?" Concubine De picked up an embroidered handkerchief and covered her mouth, ashamed and annoyed, "At that time, General Guide had not yet retired from his old age and returned to his hometown, so he naturally participated in the banquet after His Majesty sent a post. But for some reason, at the dinner party, a group of underage aristocratic family members drank a large jar of wine. The second day, the concubine led the maids to the garden to pick flowers. A person rolled out from inside. The concubine was timid at that time, and thought it was an assassin from somewhere. After being injured, she hid in the garden. The assassin turned out to be the drunk General Guide, who just calmed down and dared to ask the truth."

Concubine De pursed her lips and smiled at the end of her speech: "Poor old general's famous name was ruined by a few sons just like that."

Although it was "destroyed", Concubine De didn't show any regrets on her face, she even smiled.

Later, when General Guide was mentioned, what everyone thought of was not how majestic the general was stationed in one side, but drunk and staying overnight in the garden of the side hall of the palace.

"It was Zhe Duan who was naughty back then." The lights in Linde Hall were brightly lit, and when the wine was hot, the emperor seemed to think of that year, when his relatives, friends and relatives were all there: "He doesn't know where he heard the rumor that General Guide Drinking too much, I like to eat with wine on weekdays, and before a big battle, I must drink a pot of spirits alone, and then I will be invincible and invincible when I go to battle and kill the enemy."

"Then, on a whim, His Highness Prince Jing took a group of aristocratic family members to toast General Guide one by one. However, General Guide is actually notoriously fearful of internal affairs. Madam is strict with her, so she has to sneak in for a drink on weekdays." , So after a few cups, I was so drunk that I only knew how to drink but didn't know how to refuse." Concubine De's vermilion lips were lightly pursed, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised: "Your Majesty still remembers. Have that guts."

The emperor smiled when he heard it: "Where is my connivance, Zhe Duan has been fearless since he was a child. He even dared to steal the rare books of the former emperor's collection, let alone such a small trick."

"That's why when His Royal Highness Jing Wang took the initiative to locate the fief in the northwest despite the late emperor's obstruction, and said that he was going to join the army, the concubine was also taken aback." Concubine De's eyes were deep, and her thoughts were far-reaching: "Where did you expect that? Back then The young man who was 'terrified' by the princes and nobles in the imperial city has now become the prince who protects the peace of Nanliang. The concubine also saw Prince Jing's demeanor today and suddenly realized that it has been more than ten years. .”

"Yeah, the kids have grown up too, and we're getting old too..." The boy who was naughty and hard to teach when he was young, and almost toppled the roof of the palace, is now the minister of the Humerus of Nanliang. The idle prince only wants to play with himself in the world, but he was honored in the Ninth Five-Year Plan and held up his backbone.

The rhetoric of childhood is still there, but the reality has changed.

Hearing this, Concubine De's smile stopped, she lowered her eyelashes slightly, a gleam of sadness flickered in the corner of her eyes, she just sighed like worry: "If Jing'er was still around, she would be so old. Jing'er's temperament may be like these sons of aristocratic families, asking a lot of questions around Prince Jing."

The hand holding the cup froze for a moment when the emperor heard this, his eyes became deeper and deeper.

Princess Zhaode Gao Jing, the first and only princess of His Majesty today.

When she was young, the princess elf was cute and very likable, but it was a pity that Hui Yiyao, Princess Zhaode had the life of a princess, but she did not enjoy the blessing of wealth and honor.

The princess was only two or three years old during the Inheritance Rebellion, but at the most vulnerable age, she was overly frightened by the house arrest by the besieged army and became "convulsed".Back then when the situation was critical, His Majesty Brother Gu De didn't care about Xiao Gaojing. By the time King Jing's troops approached the city, the little princess had already gone quietly.

When the emperor first heard the news of the princess's death, he was also shocked, unable to speak for a long time.But Nanliang had no leader at that time, and a century-old foundation could be overturned by a little carelessness. Therefore, the emperor who lost his brother and beloved daughter could only endure the grief and forcibly pull himself together to preside over the overall situation.

Then the world was initially settled, and the emperor specially decreed to posthumously confer Gao Jing as "Princess Zhaode" to show his memory.

It's just that the death of his beloved daughter is indeed a great blow to His Majesty who has always valued family affection.After the death of Princess Zhaode, His Majesty has been frowning until the birth of the eldest prince, and the palace became more and more lively, and the emperor gradually smiled again.

Mentioning Princess Zhaode inevitably reminded me of the past, the emperor didn't want to mention those again, so he just took a sip of wine and said, "It's rare to have a family banquet today, so don't bring up some spoiling things."

"Your Majesty said not to mention it, so my concubine will not mention it." Concubine De wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said again: "Don't mention that, my concubine thinks of some comforting things, Your Majesty, in a few days It's Ling'er's birthday..."

After the Sword Selection Banquet, Gao Ling became much more obedient, he studied hard every day, and the master praised him endlessly when he mentioned it.

"Ling'er was born after the Mid-Autumn Festival. After this birthday, he will be nine years old." The emperor looked at the eldest prince who was sitting down and looked at his eldest prince eagerly. Said: "Does Ling'er want any reward?"

Gao Ling got up solemnly, and the crisp childish voice replied: "Ling'er doesn't want any rewards, but I only hope that the father will be in good health and live forever."

"This child..." the emperor scolded with a smile, "Where did you learn it? You are so glib. I heard that you accidentally dropped a black ink brush washer, so I will reward you with an autumn toad leaf jade wash as compensation."

Gao Ling was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he thought that if his father in the palace wanted to investigate, how could he hide it?

Emperor Father already knew about the matter of the racecourse, but because it was handled well in the end, he didn't want to haggle with their brothers.The gift of this brush washer today is just a reminder that there will inevitably be quarrels between brothers, and a brother must know how to give in and tolerate.

Although Gao Ling is not as intelligent as Gao Yu and Gao Xian, but he grew up in a deep palace, how could he not understand the meaning of this.Immediately put away the smile on his face, and respectfully thanked him: "Thank you, father, for the reward."

Although Concubine De saw the change in Gao Ling's expression, the emperor didn't say much, so she didn't think too much, she just followed her plan and said: "Speaking of which, I remember that the second prince's birthday is not far away, so if your majesty wants to reward him, then Let's reward together."

Gao Yu's birthday is around the Lantern Festival, so it's not far away, but it's obviously far away.

When Concubine Shu heard this, Liu Mei frowned slightly.

When the emperor and Concubine De were reminiscing about the past, she couldn't get in the conversation, but she kept listening quietly, fearing that Concubine De had something to say, and accidentally caught herself in it.But he didn't want to be able to hide after all, the fire still burned on himself.

Concubine Shu raised her hand to fill up the wine for the emperor, and said without a trace: "I am afraid that the concubine De concubine made a mistake. Yu'er was born in the next year. I am afraid it is too early for this birthday gift to be given."

Concubine De seemed to realize it suddenly when she heard the words, she let out an "ah" and confessed: "It turns out that the concubine misremembered, and in a few days it will be Prince Jing's birthday, and the concubine mistakenly recorded him as the second prince." gone."

As she said that, she looked down and saw that Gao Yu and Gao Xian were having a great time chatting before she continued: "Sister Shu Guifei, it's no wonder that these two brothers have been walking closely these days, and they are inseparable with one person. It seems that my sister just remembered wrongly."

"How can you blame the Concubine De?" Concubine Shu did not follow Concubine De's words, but said indifferently, "Your Majesty has worked very hard to manage the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner recently, and it is normal to remember wrongly."

"How can this be considered hard work? It's not easy for the whole family to get together to have a meal, so you have to prepare carefully." She turned her head and smiled at the emperor, "Speaking of which, my concubine remembers, Your Majesty. The side hall given to His Royal Highness is still vacant, and the concubine was only found a few days ago, and His Royal Highness always goes to Hanxiang Hall for lunch every day."

"Is there such a thing?" The emperor has a lot of things to do, but he has no time to ask the princes about their daily trivial matters. Hearing this, he looked at Concubine Shu very curiously.

"It's true." Concubine Shu replied cautiously, "It's just that His Royal Highness is greedy and likes to eat snacks and cakes made by my concubine. The concubine thinks that he has nothing to do on weekdays, and since His Royal Highness likes it, he will prepare some every day." , and use some with Yu Er after school."

The emperor smiled and said, "It seems that my concubine's culinary skills have improved a lot recently, and even the prince eats it with gusto."

Concubine De saw that the topic had finally come to Gao Xian, so she stopped going around in circles: "It's a good thing that the son loves to eat, but there is a saying that I don't know if I should say it or not."

If it was a normal day, the emperor who could not listen to the words "should be said or not should be said" would have asked Concubine De to think about it for herself, and figured out whether she wanted to say it before she spoke.But at this time the emperor was in a good mood, and seeing that Concubine De lowered her brows and looked down, she didn't show any signs of arrogance in the past, so she didn't stop her. She just tapped on the table with her wine glass, and seemed to be thinking: "Talk about it, I forgive you." Not guilty."

Concubine De let go of her heart when she heard the words, her phoenix eyes turned and glanced at Concubine Shu, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty, you don't know, it's not just His Royal Highness who go to Hanxiang Hall for lunch every day One person. The Lou family's 'sword holder' who is next to Shizi is by the side of the attendant, and has never left for a moment."

Concubine Shu's heart skipped a beat: "Miss Defei, what do you mean?"

"Naturally, it is what you think in your heart, sister." Concubine De bowed and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, my concubine is ordered by the emperor to lead the harem, so naturally I have to take care of the rules in the palace. If my concubine remembers correctly, Lou Zhijian This year is already twelve. According to the law of Nanliang, the prince needs to live separately from his mother when he reaches the age of 11, and he can leave the palace to build a mansion when he reaches the age of thirteen. Lou Zhijian is neither an imperial guard nor a palace man. Even the prince should avoid the age, but it can be unimpeded in the harem... Your Majesty, I hope your majesty will punish you for neglecting your duties."

All the words were apologetics, but every sentence pointed out that the noble concubine had lost her morality and caused chaos in the palace.

Concubine Shu listened, but her ears trembled like thunder.
