Fragrance Returned

On August 12, the osmanthus fragrant, the wind is gentle and the sun is beautiful.

At the beginning of the Mao period, Sun Yumu and Qiu Wangzhi were ordered by the emperor to each lead a team of imperial guards and Jinwu guards to Puguang Temple to return to secular life.

The Kunning Palace was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and it was full of joy. Xunxiang and Dongyang accompanied Queen Ye and waited anxiously in the Kunning Palace.

The Eighth Prince returned to secular life today. After entering the palace, he first went to the Jinluan Hall to pay homage to the Emperor in the presence of all the ministers. Then the emperor accompanied him to Kunning Palace to meet Queen Ye and record him in Queen Ye's name.

Queen Ye was still excited. I have never given birth to a son in my life, and I never expected that at such an old age, I would have an extra son in such a form.

Although it is registered, the child's biological mother is no longer around. She became a monk at the age of two. She has a peaceful temperament and has a deep relationship with Xiangxiang. They can still develop a relationship. It will be good for both Yibo and Xiangxiang in the future...

Dongyang only heard that the eighth prince would be named under his mother's name when he entered the palace yesterday, and his jaw dropped.

It turns out that my father has always been interested in the eighth prince.

Xiangxiang's relationship with Hongyi was not generally good before. Does she really not know that Hong Yi is the eighth prince or is she just pretending not to know? No matter what, that girl once again refreshed Dongyang's understanding.

She also admitted that she could not be considered a daughter even if she had nine heads.

Fortunately, she is a biological daughter.

At the end of Chenshi, several high-ranking concubines came to Kunning Palace, including the five-month-old Seventh Princess and Gao Ping, who had been living with Concubine Qin Shu.

Yesterday, they heard some gossip that the eighth prince Hongyi, who was raised by Master Mingyuan, was really going to return to secular life and would be remembered in the name of the empress.

This was deliberately released by the emperor and empress, so that they could be mentally prepared.

Concubine Cai Guifei, Concubine Qin Shu, and Concubine Jia De felt mixed emotions. It will be recorded in the name of Zhonggong, and it will not be long before the crown prince will be named.

The emperor had already had this idea, so why did he let his other sons fight to the death?

Concubine Cai even broke her silver teeth. Although her son no longer had the capital to compete for savings, the emperor deceived them.

She originally wanted to put the eighth prince in her name, but the emperor didn't agree. It turned out that this was her idea.

Concubine Qin Shu and Concubine Jia De were also disappointed. There was really no hope for their son. Fortunately, it was just a fight before and I didn't have high hopes. Unlike Li's mother and son, Cai Guifei's mother and son, and Gao Ming, who had been studying with the prince for so long, one was dead, one was half dead, and the other was imprisoned.

They are just three jokes.

The other women just saw the joke. Some of them only have daughters, and some don't even have daughters. Fighting for savings has nothing to do with them. It doesn't matter whoever becomes the emperor.

Concubine Cai was still a little suspicious and asked, "Sister, does the emperor really want to record the eighth prince in my sister's name?"

The Queen said, "I don't know anything about this either. Everything is up to the Emperor's arrangement."

Concubine Cai was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. Ye, an old woman who pretends to be virtuous, is not just planning for herself.

Gao Ping saw the Queen's gift and came to Xunxiang's side.

He walked a few steps back and forth in front of her and asked with a smile, "Cousin, am I not lame anymore?"

Little Shota has grown taller and fatter. I still have a slight limp when I walk. It's not a physical problem, but I'm used to walking like this before. It can be corrected by practicing slowly.

Xun Xiang held his face and said with a smile, "My brother is now normal and even more handsome."

I was so happy that I was so praised.

Except for Concubine Cai's family, Xunxiang is showing kindness to everyone in the harem. I hope that after Uncle Xiaoba enters the palace, fewer people will cause trouble.

Seeing their interaction, Concubine Qin Shu felt a little happy. Although the son did not become the crown prince, having a good relationship with Xun Xiang, that is, having a good relationship with the middle palace and the future crown prince, would make life easier for his children and grandchildren in the future.

At the beginning of the month, the eunuch came to report, "Queen, the Eighth Prince has been taken into the Jinluan Palace and will be here soon."

The noise in the room immediately stopped.

More than two-quarters of an hour later, the emperor personally brought the eighth prince Gao Guang to Kunning Palace.

Queen Ye and her concubines and juniors knelt down to salute the emperor.

The emperor personally helped the queen up and said, "Stay flat."

Everyone stood up and saw a twelve or thirteen year old boy standing behind the emperor.

The young man is wearing a four-clawed python robe and a black Liuhe hat. He has a tall and straight figure, delicate features, and peaceful eyes that make people feel close to him.

Even with the hat on, you can see that his hair is only about an inch long.

Old people who have met Concubine Meade can tell that he looks very much like Concubine Meade, especially those big dimples.

The eighth prince was very nervous and sweat broke out on the tip of his nose. But there is no rejection at all. This child has longed for family ties since he was a child, and he is still very excited to return to this "home".

This is Master Mingyuan deliberately raising his "ordinary mind" to be immortal.

Xunxiang likes his image better, moist as jade, and a handsome young man.

The Eighth Prince also saw Xun Xiang in the crowd out of the corner of his eye, and his nervousness eased a little.

The emperor and the queen sat together on the Arhat bed covered with phoenix and peony cushions.

The emperor said, "Sit down."

The concubine, Dongyang, Xunxiang, and Gao Ping sat down in their seats, and sat on the last embroidered pier with Gao Mingjing's wet nurse in her arms.

The emperor pointed at Gao Guang and said with a smile, "Queen, this is Xiao Ba Gao Guang. He was poisoned by the Li family when he was born, and was sent to Master Mingjue when he was two years old. The master not only detoxified him, but also taught him to be kind and kind. A kind-hearted, good boy with both ability and political integrity.

"He fully recovered, so I took him back. His biological mother died young and he was only twelve years old this year. I recorded him in the name of the queen. I hope the queen will cherish him and teach him well."

Then he said Wen Yan to the Eighth Prince, "The Queen is gentle and virtuous. She was very good to your biological mother before. You must listen to the Queen and be filial to her."

The Eighth Prince bowed and agreed, "Yes."

He took another step forward and knelt down, kowtowed to the queen and said, "My son, Gao Guang, kowtows to the queen. May the queen be blessed with good health and a thousand years of life."

He took the tea served by the palace maid and raised it high above his head, "Mother, please drink tea."

The two senior brothers taught him all the etiquette of entering the palace. Only then did he realize that Senior Brother Yu and Senior Brother Jiang were not real monks, but were sent by his father to teach him specifically. And Donor Qiu, he went to Puguang Temple many times, not to find his master, but because his father asked him to see him...

The young man in front of her called herself "Queen" instead of "Queen", and Queen Ye's eyes shone with tears.

She couldn't bear to take her eyes away from the child, took the tea, took a sip, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty's height."

The two palace maids brought two trays and placed a top-quality Panchi jade ornament, a set of the Four Treasures of the Study, and a set of Yunjin uniforms and boots.

The eighth prince bowed and thanked him, and the other two maids stepped forward to take it.

Queen Ye beckoned the Eighth Prince to her side again, took his hand and said softly, "What a good talent, handsome and elegant, with well-mannered manners. Seeing him in this palace is like seeing the emperor when he was young."

As he spoke, he glanced at the emperor. (End of chapter)
