Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

Early the next morning, Luo Qingyan got up early and went to court. Although the officials had received Xia Huanyu's imperial decree yesterday, it was only because Luo Qingyan was not in the palace yesterday that the officials were not in the palace. They went to the palace but were stopped again, and they never found a chance to congratulate Luo Qingyan in person. This morning, almost everyone arrived very early, and surprisingly, they didn't ask for leave.

The position of the crown prince has been decided, although I don't know whether Luo Qingyan can successfully ascend to the throne in the end, the horses that should be photographed and the words that should be flattered are indispensable.

Therefore, as soon as Luo Qingyan stepped into the meeting hall, he saw that the people in the hall were almost all there, and they were all whispering. Luo Qingyan's hearing was excellent, and he easily heard words such as crown prince and succession from inside.

It seemed that someone had spotted Luo Qingyan's figure, and the hall suddenly fell silent.

Luo Qingyan walked in and took the seat under the dragon chair. The officials quickly knelt down and saluted, "His Royal Highness is a thousand years old."

Luo Qingyan looked calm, and waved his hand lightly, "Get flat."

All the officials were looking at Luo Qingyan's expression both openly and secretly, and seeing that Luo Qingyan was still indifferent, they had to swallow all the congratulatory words they had prepared.

"Is there something to play today?" Luo Qingyan's voice echoed in the hall coldly.

No one answered, Luo Qingyan nodded and stood up and said: "Since it's all right, His Majesty's chariot will enter the city immediately, all the Qing family will come out of the palace to welcome me."

All the officials below looked at each other in blank dismay, just now Luo Qingyan did not claim to be the palace, but actually said "I", why?

Baiguan secretly speculated in his heart, but he didn't dare to show the slightest inappropriateness on the bright side, so he quickly responded and stood quietly, and only followed Luo Qingyan when he walked down Slowly out of the meeting hall.

Walking beside Luo Qingyan was the Shangshu of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Officials. The two looked at each other, but Lin Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials spoke first: "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is happy with his son. His Highness has not come to court these days. The ministers did not find the opportunity to say congratulations to His Highness. Now His Highness can be regarded as double happiness, it is really gratifying to congratulate, gratifying to congratulate..."

Luo Qingyan's footsteps paused slightly, and a coldness flashed in his eyes. After a while, he responded casually: "Master Lin is very well informed..."

Lin Shangshu glared at the boss when he heard the words, thinking in his heart, why does he seem to be a little unhappy looking at the newly promoted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Could it be that what he said was wrong?

Seeing Luo Qingyan's reaction in this way, the people behind had to swallow the congratulations they had prepared. He only quietly followed behind Luo Qingyan.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, Luo Qingyan ordered someone to lead the horse, and rode with all the officials along the Wenwu Avenue all the way to the gate of Jincheng. When they arrived at the gate, Xia Huanyu's carriage hadn't arrived yet. The guards who went to inquire hurriedly came to report that His Majesty's chariot would arrive in about half an hour. Luo Qingyan nodded, got off the horse with a calm expression, and stood waiting at the gate of the city.

The sun gradually rose, and it became hotter and hotter. Those officials were mostly civil officials, and they were used to enjoying themselves in the house on weekdays. After standing for a while, they felt that their feet were not their own, and their foreheads were also Beads of sweat gradually ooze out. Just looking at Luo's calm and unmoving appearance, he didn't dare to say a word of gossip.

Although the guards reported that it took almost half an hour, Xia Huanyu made everyone wait for an hour and there was still no sign. Some officials who were weak simply looked around, pretending to faint from heat stroke, just thinking about whether they could escape Passed a catastrophe. But I didn't want Luo Qingyan to just glance at it lightly, and then said softly: "It seems that I am old, and I can't even stand for a while, so how can I deal with those heavy affairs? It's better to just resign and go back to seclusion. , but I also want to be free."

The official who had just fainted was so ruined that his intestines were green, he quickly opened his eyes, and a carp stood up straight, "The sun is too poisonous, I'm just a little dizzy, it's nothing serious, it's nothing serious hinder."

After standing for a while, he finally saw the golden chariot gradually appearing in front of his eyes. The chariot was surrounded by guards and imperial guards, and there were palace people holding five-color canopies and golden dragon fans at the front and back. Everyone quickly stood up straight, watching the car get closer and closer.

The car stopped at the gate of the city, and Luo Qingyan hurriedly led all the civil and military officials to kneel down to greet him: "Your Majesty is welcome."

Xia Huanyu's voice came from the carriage: "The crown prince and the family of all the ministers have worked hard, let's get back together." The voice was Xia Huanyu's regal but slightly cold voice, but it seemed a little more gentle .

Everyone was still in a daze, but Liu Wen'an had already said loudly before the carriage drove away: "Your Majesty, get up and drive back to the palace..."

Only then did everyone quickly come to their senses, and quickly moved aside to let Xia Huanyu's guard of honor pass by first, and then followed Luo Qingyan on horseback and walked towards the palace.

After entering Jincheng, the common people knelt on both sides of Wenwu Avenue to greet each other in fear, halfway there, Xia Huanyu's voice suddenly came from the car: "Stop."

The guard of honor stopped, Luo Qingyan hurried forward, Xia Huanyu had already opened the curtain and looked over, "On the way, I heard that the Crown Princess gave birth to a baby boy safely, now that you are back, your mother wants to go and have a look at the child, Let's go to your mansion first."

There was a rare smile on Xia Huanyu's face, but Luo Qingyan was stunned for a while, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, his mother? It should be Empress Hua. Luo lightly lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and then replied: "Yes."

After speaking, he ordered the guard of honor and all civil and military officials to go back to the palace first, and he took Xia Huanyu under the protection of the imperial guards and imperial forest army, first to visit Prince Rui's mansion, which should be the Prince's mansion now. After Xia Huanyu put down the curtain of the car, Luo Qingyan stepped back a little bit, and ordered the attendants beside him to go to the mansion to report first, and after thinking about it, he said: "The princess doesn't have to come out to greet her in person, just ask the butler to bring you A few servants are waiting at the gate of the mansion."

When they arrived at the Prince's Mansion, Xia Huanyu got out of the car first, then turned around and put his hand into the car. After a while, a hand was placed on Xia Huanyu's, and he slowly got out of the car.

It was Empress Hua.

Empress Hua didn't seem to have changed much, even in such a grand return to the palace, she simply wore a crescent white dress with a few crabapple flowers embroidered on it. On the head is only a ponytail, and two silver begonias are inserted, which looks very elegant.

Empress Hua raised her eyes to look at the plaque of "Prince's Mansion" in front of the mansion gate, pursed her lips and smiled slightly, and walked in together with Xia Huanyu.

Xia Huanyu supported Empress Hua all the way, which made Luo Qingyan take a few extra glances. Xia Huanyu was an emperor after all, even if he was an empress, walking side by side like this was a bit out of courtesy.

It's just that Luo Qingyan didn't make a sound to remind him.

"I heard that the Crown Princess was trapped in the ice cellar, causing the fetus to be born prematurely. Is the baby healthy? How is the Crown Princess?" Xia Huanyu turned to look at Luo Qingyan with a smile.

Luo Qingyan lowered his head, his expression did not change, and he only said softly: "Except for being a little smaller, there is nothing serious about it. The doctor said that it is normal for a premature baby to be smaller, and it will be made up in the future. Everything is fine, it's just that I worked a little harder when I gave birth, and I'm a little tired these days."

"That's good." Xia Huanyu said with a smile, his expression seemed very happy.

On the contrary, Empress Hua said softly: "I just gave birth to a baby like this during confinement. You should lie down more, it's good for your body, but don't work too hard, don't use your eyes too hard, and read less books. And During the confinement period, the wind should not blow, otherwise you will cry in the wind, and you must pay attention to your food. You can drink more soup, chicken soup, fish soup, pig's trotters and pork bones, stew some in different ways, but don't add salt. "

Xia Huanyu naturally didn't know that there were so many taboos, so he lowered his head and looked at Empress Hua with a rare smile: "If you don't add salt, then it doesn't taste good? How can you eat this?"

Empress Hua glanced at Xia Huanyu, but didn't answer, Xia Huanyu didn't seem to care much, "It's a pain to have a child, this can't be done, and that can't be done."

When they arrived at Nanyuan, Yun Chang had already gone downstairs, and Qin Yi and the nanny also hugged Bao'er and stood aside. Seeing Xia Huanyu and Empress Hua coming in, he hurriedly saluted: "My respects, Your Majesty."

Xia Huanyu waved his hand casually and said, "It's just our own family, why are you being so polite?"

After speaking, he looked at the child in the nurse's arms and said with a smile: "Is this your child? Take it here and show it to the widows?"

Yunshang hurriedly carried the child in front of Xia Huanyu, Xia Huanyu reached out to take the child, Yunshang saw that he was a little unskilled in holding the child, and his face seemed a little surprised, and he said after a while: "It's really a little small, little one of."

Empress Hua watched from the side, frowned, endured for a long time but couldn't hold it any longer, so she reached out and hugged Bao'er: "How can you hug a child like you? The child will be very uncomfortable."

Xia Huanyu didn't look angry at all after being reprimanded, and stretched out his hand to tease Bao'er in Empress Hua's arms with a smile.

Yun Chang looked a little surprised, but she just lowered her head and quickly concealed the surprise in her eyes.

"This child looks more like his father." Empress Hua said softly, and asked after a while: "Have you got a name yet?"

Only then did Yun Shang quickly raise her head and replied, "Not yet, I just gave her a nickname, Bao'er."

"Hi Bao'er." Empress Hua smiled, "It's quite catchy."

Xia Huanyu quickly responded from the side: "Your name will wait for the widow to go back and think about it, and choose a better name."

Yun Chang lowered her head again to thank Empress Hua, but she thought in her heart, looking at Xia Huanyu and Empress Hua, it seemed that Xia Huanyu obeyed Empress Hua, which was a good sign. \u003c
