Fragrance Returned

Xunxiang leaned in Queen Ye's arms and said, "Grandma Xie Huang reminded me that Xiangxiang saved the day. What I do is only some matters related to general affairs and writing. I don't understand the politics involved in the court, and I will not not intervene... "

I thought to myself, unless Uncle Xiaoba has the possibility of becoming the emperor.

Queen Ye felt even more distressed, "You are still so young, don't think too much, it will hurt your body."

"Yes." Xun Xiang tried again, "Grandma, who do you think among these princes is likely to be the heir apparent?"

Queen Ye sighed in a low voice, "The emperor seems to have given hope to Prince Kang and Prince Ji, but I feel that he seems to treat Xiao Qi better. The emperor is wise, and his thoughts..."

Queen Ye shook her head.

Xun Xiang knew that the eighth prince became a monk and cured his illness, but even the queen, who was most trusted by the emperor, kept it secret.

But Dong Yihe found out.

Another old lady's face appeared in front of Xunxiang's eyes, kind and old.

It belongs to Mrs. Qiu.

Both the Emperor and Master Mingyuan valued and respected Mrs. Qiu. Qiu Wangzhi was also the "liaison" between the Emperor and Monk Hong...

Previously, Xun Xiang had always guessed that the "deep sea" in the court who secretly helped Dong Yihe was Sun Yumu's grandfather, Mr. Sun Laohou. And now looking at it, it is more likely to be that old lady Qiu.

On the surface, the Qiu family and the Dong family have nothing in common.

If it were really her, that old lady would be too powerful.

In the Tai Chi Hall, the emperor wrote fourteen characters: "Be worried about the world's worries first, and be happy after the world's happiness."

He looked at the powerful characters and pondered for a moment, then said to Eunuch Qin, "Take it and frame it and hang it in the Jinluan Palace. This motto is not only a spur and warning to me, but also to the officials. You must always reflect on yourself, Whether it was done or not.”

Eunuch Qin bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise and is a blessing to the people of Dali."

The emperor's eyes became hollow, "Do you think I can live until Xiaoba becomes an adult?"

Eunuch Qin knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, your dragon body is in good health, and you will live long, long, long, and long."

The emperor snorted coldly, "I dare not say that even if I am sixty years old, I am still alive. I trusted Su Tu and the old Su family so much at the beginning, but they are remnants of the Chu family and want to plot the world of the Gao family. I don't believe in the regent or the minister who cares about life. ...Xiaoba is still young, if I die early, who should I leave in this world?"

Eunuch Qin lowered his waist to reduce his presence.

"Bring Qiu Wangzhi into the palace tomorrow."

"yes."

"Take some of the Four Treasures of the Study and other ornaments from my private treasury to reward Xiangxiang."

"yes."

"Take something like this that I usually use." The emperor looked at the jade handle in his hand and said, "I rewarded her with this."

"yes."

And this motto of "worry before the world's worries, and rejoice after the world's happiness" later spread in temples and among the people. The courtiers and people were deeply moved. Having such an emperor is a blessing to the world.

The emperor said that this was his granddaughter Xiangxiang's "affirmation" of him, and he took it as a "spur". This "motto" has been passed down throughout history and has become a "spur" for every emperor.

Of course, this is something for later.

At the end of the next day, Xun Xiang was preparing to return home. Another personal eunuch beside the emperor, Eunuch Shan, held a brocade box and led four eunuchs carrying large boxes over.

He passed on the emperor's oral instructions and said with a flattering smile, "Your Majesty praised Princess Xiangxiang for her filial piety and rewarded her with these gifts. Such peach and jade pieces are what the emperor usually plays with."

Xunxiang was flattered and knelt down to take it.

The ancients are different from modern people. The elders show their love for the younger generation by appreciating the old things they carry with them. Especially for something that the emperor usually plays with in his hands, it can be said that his favor is boundless.

At this time, the concubines and princesses who were paying their respects to the queen came to Kunning Palace one after another to pay their respects.

Seeing that the emperor even rewarded Xunxiang with such things, everyone was envious and jealous.

Especially the sixth princess, she always considered herself favored by the emperor. But let alone reward her with something like this, the emperor has never rewarded him with anything he usually uses, nor has his brother received such a reward.

I don’t know how the little sycophant coaxed the father into entering. No matter how good she is, she is still a granddaughter. She has the character "foreign" and her surname is not Gao.

The Sixth Princess did not dare to call her a "flattery" in front of Queen Ye, and said sourly, "It would be more pleasing to the people..."

Seeing Queen Ye frowning, Concubine Cai Shu smiled quickly and said, "Hua Jing should learn more from Xiangxiang, how to be filial to your father."

Xunxiang and Eunuch Shan returned to Princess Dongyang's Mansion.

After entering the corner gate and getting off the car, Xunxiang said to Jiang Xi, "Go to Ding Mansion and tell my mother that I will be back on the 26th..."

There is no need for a guard to do this kind of thing, but the princess's special arrangement for him is the princess's trust in him.

Jiang Xi was naturally happy, bowed and clasped his fists, saying, "Yes, I will honor your order."

Dongyang was leaning on the Arhat bed and taking a nap with her eyes closed. Yinhuan was gently tapping her legs.

When she heard that Xun Xiang was back, she was accompanied by a chamberlain beside the emperor, thinking that she was sent by the emperor to reprimand her again. Thinking about it, she hasn't even left the house in the past few days and hasn't caused any trouble.

Isn't Xunxiang suing himself?

Dongyang quickly went to stand at the door, feeling uneasy.

She is now grounded and cannot go out even to receive orders.

The chamberlain said loudly, "The emperor has spoken, and Princess Dongyang will receive the order."

Everyone knelt down.

The chamberlain sang loudly, "My princess, Su Xixiangxiang, is smart, lively and active. I allow her to go to Jingfangzhai for one day of class every three days. Don't restrict her on weekdays..."

Dongyang was confused when he heard this, but he kowtowed and said, "Yes, Dongyang accepts the order."

After seeing off the chamberlain, Xunxiang told Dongyang that the emperor was happy and had specially approved her to go to Jingfangzhai to study only every third day until the end of the year, and allowed her to do whatever she wanted.

Dongyang has mixed joys and sorrows.

I am happy that my daughter is doing well and is being treated specially by the emperor. What worries me is that while I am still grounded, my daughter can do whatever she wants, which is too unfair.

Also, is this telling me to leave her alone?

pass.

After all, Xunxiang is a child who grew up in the countryside. If she doesn't curb her wildness and rusticity, she won't look like a noble girl. If she goes out to lose face, she will also lose face to herself.

Dongyang's face looked uncertain.

She saw something familiar about the jade handle in Xun Xiang's hand and asked, "Who gave you this handle?"

Xunxiang spread her little hands, holding a jade handle in her pink palm. It was oval and moist, with fairy peaches and auspicious clouds engraved on it. There was a string of small red agate beads and apricot tassels on one end.

"The emperor's grandfather said that Xiangxiang was filial and rewarded me. He also rewarded me with a box of things."

Dongyang looked at Xunxiang. He had been filial for more than thirty years, and Xunfeng had been filial for eleven years, but he was not as rewarded as she had been for two months.

She began to miss Xunfeng again. She felt that she was still a close child who had been raised by her own hands. Feng Yatou not only listened to her words and was considerate to her, she also did not jump over her and only wanted to please the emperor and empress.

It is better to cultivate kindness than to generate kindness, but the old saying is true...
