...You save me quickly, my son is about to be beaten to death! "

Mrs. Xia immediately pushed away the maid who was supporting her, knelt and crawled over to hug Xia Zhihuai, crying, "My lord, since you want to kill Zhihuai, then kill the concubine too! If I What happened to my son, I don't want to live alone anymore."

This Mrs. Xia is also a great beauty. Although she is not young, she has fair skin and only shallow wrinkles on her face, especially the two lines of tears hanging down her face, making her look even more charming and fragile.

Seeing Mrs. Xia rushing towards her, Lingfeng and Bai Yu stopped immediately, and stood beside them, waiting for Jing Wenhao's order.

Jing Wenhao picked out his ears, squinted his eyes and asked, "What? Speak louder, I didn't hear you." Then he raised his head and pointed at Lingfeng and Baiyu with his fan, pointing to Xia Zhihuai on the ground and said : "Why did you stop? Did I tell you to stop?"

Lingfeng said: "My lord, what if I hurt Mrs. Xia?"

Jing Wenhao looked at the two of them like idiots and said, "Stupid! Aren't you going to pull her away? How does this king usually teach you? Believe it or not, I slapped you twice? Besides, it's even hurt. She, what can Xia Yi do with this king? Cut! Don't even look at who this king is." As he spoke, he still lifted his chin narcissistically.

Lingfeng and Baiyu looked at each other helplessly, one said he was offended, walked up to pull Mrs. Xia away, and the other started punching and kicking Xia Zhihuai again.

Seeing that Mrs. Xia was about to pounce on her, the many servants nearby immediately grabbed her and let her look like she was dying.

After beating for an unknown amount of time, when Xia Zhihuai no longer had a good piece of meat on his body, Jing Wenhao finally called a stop. He stood up and looked down at Xia Zhihuai's way of exhaling more gas than breathing in, with a look of disgust on his face. Authentic: "In the future, keep your eyes open for this king. The eldest son of Su Shangshu's mansion is the person I like. If you dare to make up his mind again, it will not be as simple as being unable to get out of bed for ten days and a half months." .”

After finishing speaking, regardless of whether Xia Zhihuai heard it or not, Jing Wenhao greeted the two guards and left Xia Mansion, and rode back to the mansion.

Back at the palace, Jing Wenhao called the big steward of the mansion to go to the treasury to pick out several large boxes of medicinal materials, and then sent Bai Yu to deliver the things to Su's mansion.

The medicinal materials that Jing Wenhao gave to Su's residence were some very precious medicinal materials, some were rewarded by the palace, and some other officials sent them on his birthday. Nuo sent it away, never thinking that Mr. Su would not be able to finish eating these medicinal materials even if he ate them as a meal.

When Bai Yu came back, it was already noon, so Su Shangshu didn't insist on pushing the things out, Bai Yu just rushed back after spending a while in Su's mansion, Jing Wenhao had lunch in the mansion, and then took the two of them to rushed to the palace.

Jingguo's imperial palace is the most splendid building in the whole country. In the north of the imperial capital, all the people in the city can see the majestic and majestic palace wall as long as they look up.

The emperor has a road that can accommodate eight horses, all the way to the palace gate. Jing Wenhao rode a black and shiny horse to the palace.

He got off his horse outside the palace gate, and led two guards all the way into the palace unimpeded. After turning around and walking for a long time, he came to the gate of Mingcui Palace.

Jing Wenhao raised his foot to enter the door, and shouted to the inside: "Mother Concubine, are you inside? My son is here to see you."

Lingfeng and Baiyu didn't go in, but turned around and stood guard at the gate, waiting for the prince to come out after finishing his speech.

When the two maids standing guard on both sides of the palace saw that it was Jing Wenhao, they immediately knelt down on their knees, with an extremely respectful gesture: "My servant kowtows to the lord."

"Okay, you all get up!"

Just at this time, a beautiful and dignified woman dressed in a court lady's attire came out of the door. As soon as she appeared, she saluted Jing Wenhao and said, "My lord, you are here. The empress was still talking about you just now." , Said that you have not visited the palace for two or three days, and this servant thought you forgot about your mother!"

Jing Wenhao said with a smile: "Sister Hanyan, you have wronged the king. If the king forgets, no one will forget the concubine mother. You must be the one who complained in front of the concubine mother. Do you think so?"

The palace maid named Hanyan held an embroidered handkerchief, covered her mouth and smiled and said: "My lord likes to make fun of my servants. When you go in and ask your mother later, you will know if your servants have coaxed you. My lord, please come with your servants. Just now, Your Majesty I heard your voice from a long distance away, so I hurriedly let the slaves come out to welcome you in!"

Jing Wenhao nodded with a smile, "Please trouble sister Hanyan."

Hanyan was brought into the palace by Jing Wenhao's mother and concubine from her natal family. Now that she is over [-] years old, originally Jing Wenhao's mother and concubine wanted to release her from the palace to get married because she and Jing Wenhao's mother and concubine had a very deep relationship , couldn't bear to leave, and stayed in the palace until now.

After saying that, the two entered the door, looked up, and saw a beautiful woman wearing a dazzling palace dress, leaning on the soft couch and drinking tea.

This person is Jing Wenhao's biological mother, and she is also the only imperial concubine with an extremely noble status in the harem. Apart from the queen mother, emperor and empress, she has the highest status in this harem, and she is also the most favored by the emperor in the harem. A concubine, what she said in front of the Holy Majesty is more effective than the queen mother and queen.

Chapter 10 The tongue is like a tongue, the prince begged his mother

The imperial concubine leaned on the soft couch, and as soon as she saw Jing Wenhao coming in, she handed the teacup to the maid next to her, and was helped up by another maid, she walked towards him, took his hand and looked up and down the whole body. After a circle, he said: "It's okay, it's just a little thinner than before. What has Hao'er been doing these days? I didn't come to pay my respects to my concubine. I talked a lot in front of Han Yan, and I hope you are here today." .”

The imperial concubine smiled warmly, her voice was as gentle as water, and her eyes were full of tenderness when she looked at Jing Wenhao. Although she was complaining, there was no complaint at all from her expression.

Jing Wenhao helped the imperial concubine to sit down, turned around and sat next to her, and replied with a smile: "These ministers have been practicing martial arts in the mansion for the past few days, and the martial arts master praised the minister's progress in martial arts, although he did not come to visit his mother. Concubine, but my son misses you all the time, mother and concubine, don't get angry with me because of such a trivial matter, okay?"

The imperial concubine gave him a blank look, and continued to chatter: "Where am I angry? I hate iron but not steel. A few days ago, I heard from your father that you often wandered in the streets these days, and you have no martial arts or literary talent." Progress, but you went to smash a shop in a minister's mansion again, and you still want to lie to your mother and concubine? You say you are learning martial arts in the mansion, so you can fool me! You use lies to deceive me every time, and you don't have a long memory. " As she spoke, she stretched out a green finger like jade, and poked his forehead twice.

Jing Wenhao rubbed his nose and lowered his head, not daring to look at the imperial concubine, but said in his mouth: "How can there be? Father must be talking nonsense. I smashed the shop, and it was their fault. I can't blame it." I am not an unreasonable person. Besides, I did go shopping on the street, but that was because I wanted to find you a daughter-in-law to go back. "

The imperial concubine took Jing Wenhao's hand, and said to Han Yan next to her, "Yan'er, didn't you just ask you to go to the imperial dining room to order some pastries? Can you go and have a look? If it's ready, bring it back to Hao Solve your hunger."

"Yes, empress, lord, the servant girl will go right away." Han Yan bowed and walked out.

After Hanyan went out, the imperial concubine continued to say: "Daughter-in-law? Do you need to find it yourself as a prince? If you want, the mother and concubine will find you the portraits of the ministers and children of each family. You choose one by one. If you like it, let the mother and concubine go to the emperor to ask for an imperial decree for you. Besides, which daughter and Shuanger of the imperial capital didn't stay in the deep house to learn skills and rules? How could they easily show their faces and let you see Woolen cloth?"

Jing Wenhao said: "I don't want it! My son has already found my concubine, and I don't like any of the children of other ministers except him." As he said, he looked at the imperial concubine flatteringly, and then said, "Mother concubine , I came to the palace today just for this matter, I want my concubine to go to the emperor to ask for an imperial decree, to betroth the eldest son of Su Shangshu's family to my son, okay?"

The imperial concubine slightly raised her head to look at Jing Wenhao's expression, and said in surprise, "Su Shangshu? Is that the household secretary Su Yunhui?"

When Jing Wenhao saw the expression of the imperial concubine, he knew there was something going on. He nodded quickly and said, "Yes, mother concubine is Su Yunhui. Mr. Su is the eldest son of Su Shangshu, and he is a twin. His surname is Su Mingnuo. After the end, on the way back to my residence, I saw him being pushed into the river by a dandy, so I rescued him, and only then did I realize that this Mr. Su is as beautiful as a crown jade, a rare beauty."

"So, you already have skin-to-skin relationship with Su Shangshu's eldest son?"

"That's right, I carried him all the way to the Su residence, so, mother concubine, Mr. Su can only marry his son-in-law now. If you don't let Mr. Su be the princess of the son-in-law, he won't be able to marry gone."

"Talk about the cause and effect to my concubine, don't let Mr. Su deliberately do it for you, just to climb a big tree like you."

"Absolutely not, I read it from the beginning to the end." Afterwards, Jing Wenhao told the imperial concubine the process of the dandies he met on the street who failed to molest the beauties and instead pushed the beauties into the river.

It turned out that Jing Wenhao went to Yingmao at Guanglu Temple first after the morning court was over, had a face-to-face meeting and was about to return home, but he smelled the aroma of wine on the way, and on a whim, he planned to go to a nearby restaurant for a drink.

He drank well at first, but unexpectedly, the restaurant opened by the river, and Jing Wenhao happened to be sitting by the window, when he saw a wretched-looking dude leading a large group of people chasing the two twins, and after a while Surround them both in the middle of the road.

Of the two twins, one was dressed as a servant and was handsome, the other was dressed gorgeously and had a slender figure, wearing a bamboo hat, and his face was covered by a layer of white gauze, he seemed to be the son of a wealthy family.

Then, the dandy wanted to catch the noble young man in gorgeous clothes, but unexpectedly, the noble young man was quite stubborn, and avoided him. He didn't know what he said to the young man, but the young man didn't seem to say a word Hearing this, he planned to order his servants to arrest the two of them and bring them to the mansion.

But there were countless people watching the theater around, but no one stepped forward to uphold justice.

Thus, one wanted to catch and the other wanted to escape. In the chaos, the nobleman's bamboo hat fell down. Jing Wenhao finally saw the nobleman's true face, and was shocked into a heavenly man, as if his heart had been stabbed by a sharp sword. Breathing seems to have stopped.

Originally, although Jing Wenhao saw that the noble young master was in excellent shape, he knew that he must be a beauty, but he did not plan to save the two of them. He is a prince, not Guanyin Bodhisattva. If he takes care of it, how can he be busy?Besides, he is not the kind of country bumpkin who has never seen a beauty, so he would not come out to save the beauty with a hero to win the favor of the beauty.

However, after seeing the appearance of this noble young man, he finally knew what the real beauty is. He got up suddenly, and before the two guards beside him had time to react, he rushed out of the restaurant.

Before rushing to the beauty's side to rescue him, Jing Wenhao saw the beauty fall from the bridge, causing a splash of water in the river, and disappeared instantly. His heart twitched and he ran Even faster, he jumped into the river, intending to catch the beauty.

After being rescued ashore, Jing Wenhao learned from the weeping Shuang'er dressed as another servant that the beauty was the eldest son attached to Su Shangshu. At that time, his first thought was to marry this beauty as his concubine.

Then, Jing Wenhao told the imperial concubine the identity of the dude who molested Mr. Su, but concealed the fact that he injured Xia Zhihuai.

At that time, because of the urgency of the situation, Jing Wenhao didn't have time to settle accounts with Xia Zhihuai, so he had to deal with him afterwards, because his two guards were very powerful, and they knew all the officials and their families in the entire imperial capital, so Jing Wenhao naturally He also knows who offended his concubine, and he doesn't need to worry about finding the murderer who caused Su Nuo to fall into the river.

Chapter 11 Earnest teachings, never change your nature (catch worms)

"Since that's the case, since you have skin-to-skin relationship with that Young Master Su, you should marry him as your wife, but I don't know if he has a marriage contract. Have you inquired about this matter?"

Not only in Jingguo, but also in other countries. Shuang'er is the same as a woman to marry and have a child. The name and integrity are naturally very important and cannot be damaged in the slightest. Although the laws and clan regulations do not have any strict regulations on them , but it has been agreed from ancient times to the present. If the twins or women have skin-to-skin contact with men other than father and brother before they get married, it will damage their reputation. If you plan to marry him, it will be difficult to marry him again.

Of course, Su Nuo is Su Shangshu's son after all, even if Jing Wenhao doesn't plan to marry him, he still won't be unable to marry, just because of his status and excellent appearance, those who want to curry favor with Su Shangshu, the official position and People who are much lower than Su Shangshu will definitely rush to propose marriage, but these people's status is much lower than Su's family after all, so they can't be regarded as a good match.

But even if she gets married like this, it's hard to guarantee a good life.

Jing Wenhao is very happy!Where can these be considered?Hearing the imperial concubine's question, he realized what he had overlooked, so he could only stammer: "I... I don't know. When I was happy, I forgot to ask Su Shangshu, or I will ask someone to ask now. ?”

The imperial concubine waved her hand and said helplessly: "Okay, there is no need to ask. Now, I am afraid that everyone in the entire imperial capital knows that the eldest son of the Su family is yours. So what if there is a marriage contract? Adding the imperial decree, how dare they disobey it? This Su Shangshu can be regarded as a minister of the court, and the eldest son of his family is your princess, and it is not considered an insult to you. If the eldest son of Su finds out that you will marry him, I will definitely dance happily. How about it, your father is still busy reviewing the memorial, and when he finishes his work, I will go to him and tell you, and your father will definitely agree to this matter."

The Imperial Concubine also knew that her youngest son was more afraid of the Holy One, and he caused troubles all day long, if Hao'er went to ask for the imperial decree, he might provoke the Holy One into a rage, and if he refused, it would be better for her, the concubine, to ask for it in person.

When Jing Wenhao heard that the imperial concubine had personally agreed to this matter, he almost jumped up happily, and hurriedly stood up and knelt in front of the imperial concubine, and kowtowed to her: "I thank my mother and concubine for her success."

The imperial concubine hurriedly got up and pulled him up from the ground, and said, "Thank you for what? You are the biological son of the mother concubine, and it is only natural for me to help you, but you will be crowned in one year. It would be nice to have less trouble with the concubine mother. You don’t know how to learn something all day long, so you just know how to do nothing. If you are still like this after you get married, don’t blame the concubine mother for not warning you. One day, your The princess will dislike you, you know?"

"How could it be? My son is so handsome and graceful, how can the princess be willing to dislike me? Besides, I'm just a prince, and my father and brother, as well as the ministers in the court, worry about the country's affairs. Just be responsible for the favor of the emperor and concubine mother every day!"

Jing Wenhao sat back on the couch again, picked up a purple grape from the plate on the table, peeled the skin, and fed it into the mouth of the imperial concubine. The beautiful eyes stared, and he said in a long-winded way: "Didn't your father ask you to be on duty at Guanglu Temple some time ago? But you are lucky. You go to the office every morning and then leave. You are so old, and it should be for your father." It's time for the emperor to worry. Which of your royal brothers is like you? I won't talk about the others. Your second brother's literary talent and martial arts are all outstanding. The emperor even praised him several times in front of me. If you Half as promising as Zhao'er, even if I fall asleep, I will wake up laughing."

The imperial concubine has two sons, and Jing Wenhao is her youngest, ranking fourth among the many princes, and has just turned 17.In addition, she also has a son, the second in line, named Jing Wenzhao, who is actually twenty years old this year, with a literary and martial arts strategy, handsome and handsome, therefore, the Holy Majesty also loves him very much.

Jing Wenhao changed the subject and said: "Oh! Concubine mother, needless to say, you also know that Erchen is not that kind of material at all, and second brother is very talented. Besides, if I can do it, I can do it. Turning into a piece of wood like the second elder brother, mother and concubine won't be able to see such a pleasing Hao'er!"

The imperial concubine sighed: "Oh! That's right, it's actually quite good for you to be like this, unlike your second brother, although he hasn't let me worry about it since he was sensible, but he has never been close to me, although your father He praises it several times a day, but I only feel distressed when I see it, and I don’t know if he will forget to eat or sleep because of handling things? "

Just as he was talking, Han Yan led a group of court ladies to file in, and after saluting the imperial concubine and Jing Wenhao, Han Yan asked all the court ladies to put the cakes on the table.

Lily cakes, jujube cakes, glutinous rice cakes and other exquisite and attractive pastries exude a fragrance, making people salivate and appetite.

He said to Jing Wenhao with a smoky smile: "My lord, these are your favorite pastries. Your empress guessed that you would enter the palace today, so she specially ordered the imperial dining room to make them, because they were just made, and they are still hot now! "

Jing Wenhao asked, "Then what if I don't come?"

Han Yan replied: "Naturally send someone to the prince's residence!"

The imperial concubine smiled and refuted her words: "Who said this is for Hao'er, I'm just greedy, he likes to cause trouble all day long, makes me angry, and wants me to take care of him?"

After finishing speaking, the imperial concubine saw that Jing Wenhao was going to take the pastry and put it in her mouth, so she slapped his hand away, raised her eyebrows and glared at him: "You forgot to clean your hands again!"

"You all go down!" Han Yan watched the other maids put the cakes one by one, and waved them to go down, then smiled and nodded to the imperial concubine: "Yes, yes, this servant knows, the empress just wants to eat, Since these cakes are not prepared for the prince, how about letting the prince watch the lady eat them?"

"You're wrong, how could the mother concubine be reluctant to give me the pastries? She loves me so much." Jing Wenhao retracted his hands, and the maid next to him came forward with a basin of water. He cleaned his hands and picked up another A court lady wiped the towel in her hand before she started to eat the cakes. While eating, she praised: "The cakes in the palace are indeed better than those in my house."

As we all know, all the top chefs in the country gather in Jingguo's palace, and the chef who makes these cakes is also the best in the palace, even though the chef in Jing Wenhao's mansion is the chef's apprentice , but the taste of the pastries made is still a little lacking.

Jing Wenhao ate with relish, seeing the imperial concubine watching him eat, just sipping tea from time to time, he picked up another piece of hibiscus cake and fed it to the imperial concubine's mouth: "Mother concubine also eat with my son !"

The imperial concubine took it over, but she said softly and softly: "Okay, you can eat it yourself, I have already eaten it just now, just one piece is enough."

Chapter 12 With a daughter-in-law, I forgot my mother and concubine

Jing Wenhao ate a few mouthfuls, and suddenly said to Hanyan: "Sister Hanyan, I want to prepare another portion of these cakes and bring them back for my princess to taste. You can arrange it!"

Han Yan was surprised and said: "Princess? Isn't the prince not engaged yet? Where did the concubine come from?"

Therefore, Jing Wenhao briefly repeated what he had just said to the imperial concubine, and said with a smoky smile: "That's a coincidence, the servant was worried that the prince would not eat enough today, so he specially ordered the imperial dining room to make an extra portion. The prince happened to take it back and give it to the princess."

The imperial concubine covered her mouth and smiled, then sighed again: "Oh! My son is too big to stay! With a daughter-in-law who forgets her mother, Hao'er has been taking care of him all day long before the concubine is married. If you get married and go home, you have to be an ancestor. By then, Hao'er probably won't have time to come to my place to pay my respects, and in a blink of an eye, I will be forgotten as a concubine mother."

Jing Wenhao wiped his hands and flattered him, "How could I forget my concubine mother! You are as important as the concubine in my heart. Besides, even if I can't come often, wouldn't my father be with me?" You? And even though the second elder brother is a piece of wood, he will often come to the palace to visit you and talk to you, in short, even if the son does not come, you will never be lonely in the palace. "

The imperial concubine shook her head, and scolded Jing Wenhao who was standing behind her, and said, "Look, the imperial edict has not even been issued yet, but Mr. Su is as important as me in Hao'er's heart. You Is it irritating or not?" As she spoke, she took a handkerchief and wiped away the crumbs on Jing Wenhao's mouth: "How big is he, he still looks like a child."

Hanyan lowered her head and comforted her ear: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be sad. Since the lord has made you angry, the servant feels that since the sage has not known about this matter, why don't we help the lord so that the lord can't marry Su Da?" Young Master, what do you think, Madam?" She said while looking at Jing Wenhao, the smile in her eyes never lessened.

The imperial concubine looked at Jing Wenhao with gentle and calm eyes, the smile on her face deepened, and she nodded in agreement: "Well, this is a good idea."

The voices of the two of them were not low, how could Jing Wenhao not hear them?Suddenly paled in shock, begged for forgiveness repeatedly, and acted like a baby to the imperial concubine, causing a lot of laughter. Only then did Jing Wenhao realize that he had been tricked, and he was suddenly annoyed again.

※※※

After Su Shangshu finished his work in the study in the morning, he had lunch and went to Linchun Garden. Seeing that Su Nuo was still sleeping and the temperature on his forehead had dropped a little, he asked Xia Qing and Xia Liu to take good care of him. , and then went out of the yard and returned to the study to continue working.

Su An walked quickly to the door of the study room, knocked a few times, and heard the sound of "come in" from inside before pushing the door open and walking in.

After saluting respectfully, he replied to Su Shangshu: "My lord, Xia Tong has explained clearly the reason why the eldest son fell into the water. In addition, the servant also inquired from the outside. There are some discrepancies in what Xia Tong said."

Su Shang wrote the last word on the memorial blankly, put down the pen, picked up the memorial, and said while reading: "Then tell me everything you know!"

"Yes, master." Su An stood in the middle of the study, lowered his eyes and told the reason why Su Nuo fell into the water.

In short, Su Nuo and Xia Tong went out of the mansion together. They planned to go to the book market to buy a book on medical skills, but unexpectedly, they were targeted by the only son of the right history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. During the dispute, Su Nuo was accidentally caught by someone Pushed down the river, fortunately Xiaoyao Wang was nearby, seeing this scene, rescued him in time, and then, Su Nuo was sent back to Shangshu Mansion without stopping.

The reason why Su Nuo left the mansion with only one servant was through the back door, so when he went out, no one else knew about it. If the housekeeper and the eldest lady in the mansion knew about it, they would definitely ask a few more people to protect him with.

Generally speaking, the twins and women of rich families need to cover their faces when they leave the house, especially those who are good-looking, because they are afraid of getting into trouble, just like Su Nuo going out this time, because there is no one to protect him , followed by another helpless Shuang'er, who was targeted by a dude without paying attention. Fortunately, the prince rescued him, and he was able to turn the danger into safety.

Su Nuo's going out this time was actually instigated by Xia Tong. According to Su An, he saw an old man selling remnants of medical books at the book market yesterday, and they sold them at a high price. The crowd didn't buy them after seeing them. Xia Tong knew that Su Nuo liked medical books, but he couldn't afford them because they were too expensive, so when he returned home, he talked to Su Nuo, and Su Nuo immediately became interested and planned to buy them himself. , who would have thought that something would happen after the two of them left the mansion.

Su Shangshu put down the memorial in his hand, walked out from behind the desk, stood with his hands behind his back, stood in front of Su An, and asked, "Is the medical book that Xia Tong said really true?"

Su An lowered his eyes and replied: "Back to the master, the slave asked someone to check, and the old man and the fragmented medical book that Xia Tong said did not exist, and the slave even found out that Mr. Xia was originally from the mansion. The one who went to the gambling house changed his mind halfway and took a large group of servants to the book market, only then did he meet the eldest son, and the servant thought that the person behind Xia Tong might not be simple."

Su Shangshu frowned and said, "Have you found out why Xia Zhihuai changed his mind?"

Su An replied: "Go back to the master, I haven't found it yet."

Su Shangshu paced back to the back of the desk, thought for a moment, then waved to Su An and said, "Okay, go down and continue the investigation, and interrogate Xia Tong by the way, to see if you can find out something."

"Yes, my lord, the slave will leave."

Su An was retreating to the door, and found that the eldest lady was about to walk in with a maidservant, so she immediately saluted and said, "I have seen the eldest lady."

Meng Lian paused, nodded her head and said, "If you have nothing to do, go down first!"

Su An nodded and walked out.

When Su Shangshu saw Meng Lian coming in, he asked, "Why did Madam come here?"

Meng Lian walked in and said: "I want to discuss something with the master." She turned her head and told the maidservant behind her: "Put the soup on the table and go out first, I don't need you here Serve, remember to close the door."

"Yes, ma'am." Shu Cui put a bowl of soup on the table, took the tray out, and closed the door by the way.

Meng Lian picked up the white fungus and lotus seed soup on the table, stirred it with a spoon, and put it in Su Shangshu's hand: "I want to ask the master, what should I do about Nuo'er and the fourth prince? I think the fourth prince was an asshole before." A little bit, but not like a meddlesome person, this time I rushed to send Nuo'er back to the mansion in person, and sent people to deliver so many things. Could it be that he is caring about our Nuo'er? If he is caring It’s okay, if you don’t have that kind of meaning, it will be difficult.”

As she said that, Meng Lian looked sad. Although Su Nuo was not her son, she didn't want to treat him harshly. She also wanted to find a good family for him when he was an adult. After all, he was the eldest son of the Shangshu Mansion, and his Existence doesn't hinder her and her son, maybe she will marry a better family in the future, and it can help his son's official career.

After all, she came from a wealthy family, and she is not the kind of short-sighted person who treats children harshly just because of the jealousy in her heart. Besides, Su Nuo has good looks, good personality, and is proficient in everything, so there is nothing to be picky about. Giving it to the prince would be of great help to the Shangshu Mansion, and it would be her son who took advantage in the end!

This time, she thought that King Xiaoyao and Su Nuo had a physical relationship, and that King Xiaoyao seemed to be interested in Su Nuo. Meng Lian thought in her heart that if King Xiaoyao planned to marry Su Nuo as a princess or side concubine, then they The family is really climbing a big tree, if King Xiaoyao didn't plan to marry Su Nuo, it would be difficult to find a better family than before.

Therefore, Meng Lian thought about it for a few hours, and decided to come to Su Shangshu to inquire, hoping that he would give her a reassurance.

Su Shangshu sat on the chair, drank a few sips of soup, then put down the bowl and said, "What is Xiaoyao Wang's character, is it something we can discuss casually? We can't discuss such things in private in the future."

"Yes, my concubine was rude."

Su Shangshu nodded in satisfaction, and then said: "Just now I learned that Nuo'er had an accident, and I was in a panic, so I didn't have time to ask the prince what he meant. I will ask the prince after tomorrow morning, and I will discuss it with you when I come back. Things will happen in all likelihood.”

In fact, when he first learned that Nuoer was sent home by King Xiaoyao, he was very angry, thinking that although Jing Wenhao is the most beloved prince of the Holy One, but his character is bad, he does nothing, and loves to cause trouble, How can Nuoer be a good match?His first thought was to resolutely prevent King Xiaoyao from having the slightest contact with Nuo'er.

After thinking about it calmly, I was shocked to realize that the entire imperial capital is probably talking about King Xiaoyao and his eldest son. Sure enough, the news brought back by the servants proved his guess. will be damaged.

Besides, although King Xiaoyao has a slightly bad personality, he is a member of the royal family after all, so maybe there are merits. Besides, he doesn't even have a concubine room in his inner house, if King Xiaoyao takes his fancy Nuo'er of their family, with his status in the court and Nuo'er as his eldest son, maybe Nuo'er has the possibility of becoming a princess. If he can give birth to the eldest son of the palace as soon as possible after entering the mansion, his position will be more stable up.

Meng Lian thought for a while, and felt that this matter should not be rushed. No matter how anxious she was, what should belong to them would be theirs. No matter how anxious she was, it would be a waste of time to fetch water from a bamboo basket. So she immediately calmed down and said: " Yes, master, I know now, but I don't know if Nuo'er is awake now, I plan to go to see it again, so I won't disturb the master's business."

Su Shangshu raised his head, looked at her softly and said, "Okay, you go first!"

"The concubine is resigning!" Meng Lian bowed and walked out of the study.

Chapter 13 The prince is a dude, the Holy One is furious

Su Nuo fell asleep for several hours before waking up.

Xia Liu brought some food from the kitchen earlier, seeing that he had fallen asleep again, Xia Qing didn't let Xia Liu wake him up, and the food was sent back to the kitchen.

Su Nuo rubbed his temples, called Xia Qing in, and asked, "What time is it?" The high fever has not subsided, and his head is still aching right now.

"It's the third quarter of Shen time. The servant just saw that the young master was sleeping soundly, so he didn't wake you up for lunch. The young master is hungry now? The kitchen has prepared food for you, so I'll ask someone to bring it to you? By the way, young master , Just now the master asked someone to send some pastries, I heard it was from the Prince Xiaoyao, do you want some?" Xia Qing helped Su Nuo to sit up, and answered.

"What kind of cakes are they?"

"I heard that it was made by the best pastry chef in the imperial dining room. Most people can't eat it! There are hibiscus cake, lily cake, jujube cake and so on. I think the shape is very beautiful, and the smell is good."

Su Nuo thought for a moment, then ordered: "In that case, go and bring me some pastries, and bring me a bowl of porridge."

Xia Qing said with a happy smile, "Yes, my lord, I'll go right away."

He went out, called Xia Liu outside to take care of Su Nuo, and walked to the kitchen by himself.

After a while, Xia Qing led the two little girls in, put down all the food in their hands, and let them back out.

Xia Qing picked up a bowl of porridge and sat by the bed, intending to feed Su Nuo, but he refused: "Give me the porridge, I'll eat it myself!"

"Yes, son."

After Su Nuo finished drinking a small bowl of porridge, he handed the bowl to Xia Qing. Xia Qing put the bowl on the table, then took a plate of pastries from the small square table on the floor and brought it to Su Nuo, saying: " My lord, can you try it and see if it’s delicious? The prince brought it out of the palace on purpose. It is said that the concubines in the palace are not qualified to eat such delicious cakes. I think the prince must be interested in you."

Su Nuo picked up a piece, heard the words, glanced at him, and said, "You're the one who talks a lot." Then he took a bite of the pastry in his hand, it melted in his mouth, and the fragrance lingered on his lips and teeth immediately, with a cool feeling in the sweetness.

Because of the fever, Su Nuo's sense of taste was much weaker, but he could still taste the pastries much better than what he usually eats.

I remember that in his previous life, King Xiaoyao sent people to give him cakes, but he seemed to share all of them with others, and he never even tasted a bite.

Because of his previous life, he is not very picky about food now, as long as he can eat it, he is still a little moved by King Xiaoyao's desire to please him, but that's all.

He has already been injured once, so naturally he can't expect extravagant feelings. He only thinks that after marrying into the palace, he will be able to control the power of the rear house, have enough ability to protect himself, have another child, and live his life in peace.

After eating something, Su Nuo fell asleep again, it looked like it was just getting dark at night, Xia
