Chapter 225
"Yun Wan, I went with you to meet your mother and brother first, and then I took Qi Zaijun into the palace to meet his father, the emperor, and his mother."
Qi Lingheng knew that Lin Yunwan was anxious.
As soon as the ship approached the capital, she was different from when she was on the road. She couldn't sleep or eat well.
She must be thinking about her family too much.
Lin Yunwan shook her head: "How can this be done? Don't be in a hurry and go to the Palace to meet the Saint at this moment!"
When they returned to Beijing this time, before they even got off the boat, countless people were staring at them on the pier.
Qi Lingheng knew that she was always cautious, so he didn't force her.
Qi Zaijun became seasick and vomited for several days. He fell asleep when he arrived at the palace.
The palace had already sent people over, first to help clean up the old palace, and then to send someone to spread the word in advance.
The couple rested for a night, and the next day they took Qi Zaijun, who was yawning profusely, into the palace to see Emperor Jingshun and Empress Zhao.
"My son."
"Daughter-in-law."
"Take the emperor and grandson Qi Zaijun to pay homage to the father, the emperor and the queen."
The couple dressed up and entered the palace, taking Qi Zaijun with them to worship in the palace.
There was silence for a long time after sitting down.
Lin Yunwan vaguely heard a suppressed cry.
Like the voice of a queen.
But Emperor Jingshun didn't say anything, and he must have been uneasy inside.
Emperor Jingshun whispered: "Get up."
He told the eunuch: "Give me a seat."
Queen Zhao couldn't wait any longer. When the two of them got up, she hurriedly said: "Bring the emperor's grandson over to the palace and take a closer look!"
The palm eunuch bent over, walked up to Qi Zaijun with a smile, and said, "Young master, you and your servants come here to meet your royal grandmother."
Qi Zaijun looked at the magnificent hall curiously.
Then he looked at the two elders sitting high in the distance, like two giant Buddhas.
He asked curiously: "Concubine, is that a fairy?"
Lin Yunwan lowered her head, glanced at him, and said, "...It's your imperial grandfather and imperial grandmother."
But their status is too noble and too tall, just like the golden statues seen in temples.
Qi Lingheng patted his son's head, narrowed his eyes and said, "Your imperial grandmother wants to get close to you, why don't you go quickly?"
Qi Zaijun hesitated.
He was a bastard. When he arrived at the palace, he was not familiar with the place and was a little scared.
Empress Zhao clenched her sleeves, restrained her joy, and said with a smile: "Jun'er, come to Grandma Huang."
Emperor Jingshun's face became more majestic: "Qi Zaijun, did you hear your imperial grandmother talking to you? How did you learn the rules at home?"
Lin Yunwan lowered her head.
If the emperor's grandson fails to learn the rules, it is the mother's fault.
But she heard Empress Zhao come to her rescue: "The child's family is still so small. It's a pity that he grew up suffering from hardships outside. Please take your time with the rules."
Emperor Jingshun let out a very comfortable "hum".
He waved: "Qi Zaijun, come to me."
I like it very much.
This boy looked exactly like his son when he was a child, especially his eyes, which were so black that they glowed with stars.
Qi Zaijun trotted over.
Thinking of the rules taught by his mother and concubine, he was not in a hurry to sit on Emperor Jingshun, and knelt down to salute: "Your Majesty and grandson, Qi Zaijun, pays homage to the emperor's grandfather, and pays homage to the emperor's grandmother. May the emperor's grandfather and grandmother be blessed with good fortune, good health, and long life." .”
Emperor Jingshun laughed and said, "You are quite articulate."
He personally bent down, picked up his grandson, and held him in his lap.
Qi Zaijun felt that he suddenly became taller.
He was a little scared and hugged Emperor Jingshun's arm tightly.
After he was seated firmly, Qi Zaijun explained to his mother-in-law: "Imperial grandfather, my mother-in-law taught me the rules, but I didn't remember them just now."
Emperor Jingshun deliberately teased him: "Do you remember it now?"
Qi Zaijun nodded: "I remembered."
So no one can blame his mother and concubine for being bad.
Queen Zhao looked hot and said, "Give me the child to hold."
Emperor Jingshun was very reluctant, but the queen also missed her children and grandchildren for a long time, so he took the children over.
Queen Zhao looked at her grandson carefully. The more she looked at him, the more she liked him, and she laughed in the main hall.
Qi Zaijun thought it was funny, so he hugged her arm and asked with a smile: "Grandma Huang, why are you laughing?"
"You're such a naughty little kid. You've only just returned to the capital now. Why don't you give the Imperial Grandmother a good meal?"
Qi Zaijun just smiled in Queen Zhao's arms.
"Come here, give me a banquet at Kunning Palace."
Emperor Jingshun had been looking forward to this day for too long, so he left Qi Lingheng and Lin Yunwan to have lunch in Kunning Palace.
Because in the Queen's Palace, there is not so much attention to detail. The dishes served are interesting to look at, and there are also many edible things.
It's okay for adults not to eat it, but children can't stand it.
Emperor Jingshun asked the imperial kitchen to prepare eighteen dishes that the children could eat.
A royal meal is enjoyable.
After finishing the meal, we went to Nuang Pavilion to talk.
King Huan and Princess Huan could not stay in the palace without any reason, but Queen Zhao and Emperor Jingshun were really reluctant to let go of their grandson. Seeing that it was getting late, they were reluctant to let him go.
Qi Lingheng looked at his dozing son and reminded Queen Zhao: "Mother, Jun'er is already sleepy. Please give him to the wet nurse."
Queen Zhao was reluctant to let go.
Emperor Jingshun also pretended not to hear.
Lin Yunwan had no choice but to say: "Father, Queen Mother, Jun'er will choose a bed. Do you have a soft quilt here? Lay it down in several layers for Jun'er to sleep for a while."
"Yes. It's already on my bed."
Queen Zhao personally carried Qi Zaijun and went to bed to sleep.
He's already sleeping in her bedroom, why not sleep until tomorrow morning? Don't bother the kids.
She thought so and looked at each other with Emperor Jingshun.
Emperor Jingshun also stared at his grandson with a smile on his face.
Lin Yunwan quietly pulled down Qi Lingheng's sleeve and signaled to him that it was time for them to go home.
She whispered: "Leave Jun'er, the wet nurse, here with us."
Qi Zaijun nodded and went to say goodbye to the emperor and empress.
When Emperor Jingshun and Queen Zhao heard that their grandson was staying here, they no longer had a son in their eyes.
Emperor Jingshun smiled and said: "It's getting late. You are tired from the long journey. Go back and have a good rest for a few days."
"My son, please retire."
"My daughter-in-law is resigning."
Lin Yunwan and Qi Lingheng left the palace together and got on the carriage to go home.
Qi Lingheng was afraid that she would be worried, so he held her hand and said, "Father, the Queen and Queen Mother just like Jun'er and will send her back in a few days."
Lin Yunwan is not worried about this at all.
She smiled and said: "This little devil in the world, I wish he would go and grind on others."
Taking care of her son every day gave her a headache.
Every day when I wake up, I hear "mother concubine, mother concubine", and when I feel upset, I want to shut Qi Zaijun's mouth.
Now she can finally be clean for a few days, which is what she wanted.
Qi Lingheng laughed in a low voice: "The little devil is not here..."
There is no need to avoid many things between them as husband and wife.
The next day, Lin Yunwan and Qi Lingheng got up very late.
When Cuiqin came in to help Lin Yunwan dress up, she said, "Someone is coming from the palace."
"When did you come?"
"It's been an hour."
Lin Yunwan was a little nervous: "Why don't you wake me up?"
Cuiqin smiled and said: "My father-in-law said that I don't need to disturb you and the prince. I just came to reward you with something and pass on a message on behalf of the emperor."
They had just arrived in the capital, how could they really be rewarded again so soon?
Lin Yunwan changed her clothes and went out with Qi Lingheng to give instructions.
The palm eunuch smiled and said: "The emperor likes the young prince very much. The emperor wants to keep the prince to stay for a few more days, so she sent a servant to let you know so that the princess and the prince don't worry."
Lin Yunwan is not worried.
She asked in surprise: "Prince?"
The prince's son is not the heir apparent at birth. He must be canonized to be the real heir apparent.
The palm eunuch congratulated: "Congratulations to the princess, congratulations to the prince. The emperor said that he would make the young master the crown prince, so he also asked the slave to come and tell the news in advance."
Lin Yunwan felt flattered.
She sent the palm print eunuch away decently.
Seeing that she was thinking about something, Qi Lingheng sat down to drink tea and asked softly, "Aren't you worried now?"
This was the first time Lin Yunwan met her "uncle" and the first time she met the Supreme Being.
You must be scrutinized everywhere.
The emperor and empress didn't say anything yesterday, but she knew in her heart that the emperor and empress had already made a comment in her heart.
Judging from the emperor's current attitude, she should be satisfied with her.
Lin Yunwan smiled slightly: "Thanks to the prince."
Qi Lingheng said slowly: "Thanks to our son."
In Kunning Palace, Queen Zhao and Qi Zaijun were having a great time.
When the concubines in the harem came to greet her, she didn't even bother to see them, so she just spent every day in the palace making fun of her grandson.
Qi Zaijun was also very cooperative, "It's fun and delicious. Grandma, can I leave some of this for my mother and concubine?"
"sure."
Queen Zhao smiled.
After Emperor Jingshun came down to court, he finished handling important matters and went to Kunning Palace without going anywhere.
But he came late, Qi Zaijun had already gone to bed.
The empress stood in front of the bed, admiring the cute appearance of her grandson. The two went out hand in hand. Empress Zhao said: "Jun'er looks like his mother and concubine."
"I feel more like Heng'er."
The two of them also argued about this issue.
Finally, Emperor Jingshun suddenly said: "Why do I feel that Jun'er's mother-in-law... looks a bit familiar."
Empress Zhao also agreed: "When the emperor said this, I also feel that Jun'er and his mother-in-law are very kind-hearted."
She praised: "Lin is dignified. A dignified person looks dignified. Most of the daughter's families in the capital are like this. It's not unusual."
Emperor Jingshun nodded.
