Chapter 112
Xiao Yan shook his head: "Let's not mention this matter for now, I will make an order after the imperial concubine's funeral is over."
The queen smiled and nodded: "It should be. The time for the concubines to pay their respects has come early, and it's time to leave now. Did the emperor use breakfast? If it doesn't work, use it in Fengqing Palace."
Xiao Yan said without thinking: "I haven't been to Changle Palace for many days, so let's go with the concubine."
Hearing the emperor's sudden roll call, Jiang Ning couldn't help wondering, is she going to teach the eldest prince to her to raise?
In the previous life, although Xiao Yan didn't like the Queen's mother clan being strong, he didn't want the Jiang clan to continue to be rampant.
Therefore, in the harem, there was no more suitable candidate than the queen, so he had no choice but to hand over the eldest prince to the queen.
Seeing Xiao Yan and Jiang Ning leaving side by side, the queen's face turned completely dark.
In fact, what the queen meant was that after the greetings were over, let the concubines leave quickly, and the emperor stay.
The emperor hadn't spent the night with her for several days. She hoped that she could develop feelings for her. She didn't want the emperor to put his heart on her. At least, she had to work harder to win the eldest prince's custody!
The emperor refused to tell her who the adoptive mother he chose for the eldest prince was, but he turned around and followed the concubine to Changle Palace.
Didn't this just make it clear that he wanted to hand over the eldest prince to the Jiang family!
Jiang Shi, she was born to be right with her!
The queen thought bitterly.
After leaving the palace gate of Fengqing Palace, Xiao Yan and Jiang Ning walked silently, speechless, and the palace people followed from behind.
Xiao Yan kept his face sullen along the way, and from time to time he glanced sideways at the Persian cat in Jiang Ning's arms.
He had heard that every day when she came to the Queen's Palace to pay her respects, she would hug this fat cat and never let go of it all day long. When the Persian Kingdom paid tribute, it was still a young kitten, but Now, she raised him so chubby that he was several waists bigger than when he was sent to her palace!
It can be seen how well this fat cat eats!
"The imperial concubine likes this cat very much?"
Jiang Ning nodded.
Seeing her nodding without hesitation, Xiao Yan silently shed bitter tears.
In order to alleviate Jiang Ning's pain of losing a son, he randomly picked a kitten and sent it to Changle Palace. Unexpectedly, this cat would get all her energy.
Ever since she had this Persian cat, Jiang Ning never sent anyone to Zichen Palace to deliver anything, nor did she send anyone to Zichen Palace to invite him to Changle Palace. Put it on a beast.
If he knew this earlier, even if he picked a dog, it would be better than picking a cat!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's complexion became worse and worse: "Aren't your hands sore from being hugged for so long? Let the palace servants hug you."
Jiang Ning shook his head: "As long as my concubine hugs Meow, it will stretch out its sharp claws to scratch people when others hug it. Even Jing Qiu, who usually cooks for it, is not spared."
Xiao Yan secretly cast aside that fat cat: It would be nice if someone hugged it, and dare to pick it!Relying on my beloved concubine, believe it or not, I cooked and ate you!
"Then let me give you a hug." He held out his hand.
Jiang Ning took a step back holding the cat, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, forget it, this cat's claws are very sharp, if you accidentally hurt the dragon's body, I will not be able to explain to the empress."
"How can I be afraid of a kitten when I am as rich as a daughter?" After saying that, before Jiang Ning agreed, Xiao Yan went into her arms and snatched it.
Unexpectedly, the kitten's paws grabbed Jiang Ning's collar tightly, Xiao Yan felt that this was inappropriate, so he pulled the kitten's paws with his hands, but the kitten became furious and pawed at the back of Xiao Yan's hand.
The cat's claws were so sharp that three bloodstains were scratched out on the back of Xiao Yan's hand, and the blood gushed out instantly.
Jiang Ning was startled, and unconsciously loosened the hand holding the cat. Xiao Yan took the opportunity to snatch the cat and throw it on the ground.
The kitten was in pain from the fall, and squatted next to Jiang Ning's skirt after meowing a few times.
Xiao Yan's face became darker and darker, and he shouted: "Rong An, this cat, put to death!"
Rong An trotted over, picked up the cat, turned around, and was about to leave. Jiang Ning listened, snatched the cat from Rong An, glared at Xiao Yan and said, "My concubine has already said that meow will hurt people, but the emperor will not believe it." , now he is injured, but wants to kill Meower, what is the reason for that!"
Xiao Yan took a deep look at her, then turned around and left.
"Imperial concubine..." Rong An looked at Xiao Yan's back and hesitated for a moment, not knowing what the emperor meant, was this cat killed?Or not to kill?
"Hmph!" Jiang Ning snorted coldly, hugged the cat and followed Xiao Yan, keeping a distance from him.
When he arrived at Changle Palace, Jiang Ning sat on the couch with the cat in his arms, watching the palace people busy, looking for the imperial doctor and cleaning Xiao Yan's wound.
After Xiao Yan's wound was treated, he sat beside Jiang Ning, and then took out something from his sleeve, wrapped squarely in a white square handkerchief.
He put the square handkerchief on the table and slowly opened it. Jiang Ning looked up and saw that it was the bracelet she gave away yesterday.
"I have brought this bracelet back, and it will be returned to its original owner."
Jiang Ning only glanced at it, then lowered his head again, "Since the things have already been sent out, why should the emperor come back?"
This bracelet has a different meaning to her. Jiang Ning used to love her like a treasure. Xiao Yan knew it all along. Originally, he thought that for Jiang Ning, he specially went to get the treasure in his private treasury, and went to Yang's to exchange this bracelet. He thought that Jiang Ning would be happy after spending so much trouble, but what is her attitude now!
Xiao Yan suddenly raised his head, stared at her, and said through gritted teeth: "Have you really forgotten what this bracelet is?"
forget?How can I forget?This is the most unforgettable memory in the heart of the original owner.
When the imperial decree of marriage came down, Jiang Ning was overjoyed when she learned that she was going to marry Xiao Yan, the prince of the dynasty.
Originally, when marrying a side concubine, the royal family did not need to prepare a dowry gift, but in order to show the importance he attached to the Jiang family and his satisfaction with Jiang's side concubine, the late emperor specially asked Xiao Yan to pick a lot of gifts and send them to Jiang's house as a dowry gift. The dowry gift for the princess was just a drop in the bucket, but it was enough for the Jiang family to show off.
Among them, the original owner's favorite is this bracelet.
Jade inlaid with gold represents a good marriage between gold and jade. The pure jade color of this bracelet complements the gold ornaments on the outside.
The original owner liked the bracelet the most because Xiao Yan's name was engraved on the inner side of the bracelet, a very hard-to-find place.
In the past, when Xiao Yan couldn't be with her, the original owner wore that bracelet, just like Xiao Yan was always by her side, in the previous life until death, the original owner wore it!
During the days when she was imprisoned in Changle Palace, she would touch the bracelet and murmur every day, asking foolishly: Why is the emperor so cruel to her?
Jiang Ning said softly: "Forget? I haven't forgotten, but the emperor has forgotten."
Suddenly, she lowered her eyebrows and smiled, and said: "That's right, the emperor gave this bracelet out unintentionally, the emperor has never cared about me, how could he know how much this bracelet means to me?" important?"
"However, since the moment I gave the bracelet away with my concubine, it is no longer important." Jiang Ning raised her head in relief, with a smile on her lips.
"So you gave the bracelet away on purpose." Xiao Yan said with certainty.
Jiang Ning replied lightly: "Yes."
"why?"
"The child is gone, and the emperor's heart is gone. What's the use of leaving the bracelet empty? I didn't bring a gift when I went out yesterday. It just came in handy."
Xiao Yan sneered twice: "You want to cut off the connection between us?"
"I don't dare to think about it, I should say let it go. As long as I am the emperor's concubine, I will never separate myself from the emperor."
"You!" Xiao Yan looked at Jiang Ning fiercely, trying to see a trace of duplicity in her eyes, but no, her eyes were still so clean.
Clean enough to make him ashamed.
He said angrily: "Don't you want a child? I will give you Chengxu!"
"Your majesty will never force you to do so. The concubine has never given birth to a child. I'm afraid I can't bear this responsibility!"
"Chengxu has already gone to the study, you don't need to worry too much, you just need to take care of Chengxu's food and clothing, you have always been cautious, I believe that there is no one more suitable than you in the palace." Xiao Yan sighed and said : "Let Chengxu, instead of our unborn child, be filial in front of you."
Jiang Ning suddenly smiled, and looked at Xiao Yan with firm eyes: "I will never raise the eldest prince."
"Why?" Xiao Yan asked her suspiciously.
Jiang Ning said seriously: "My child is dead, and no one will ever be able to replace him. Besides, the eldest prince has now remembered, and he will not forget that his biological mother is Concubine De, and I am just a adoptive mother. Be filial to me wholeheartedly!"
Xiao Yan slapped the table, "Then what do you want to do in the future? What about Cheng Xu?" As an emperor, he is destined not to have only one woman, and there will be more in the future. There is no child by his side. Jiang Ning's How lonely the days must be.
Jiang Ning said: "Me? I usually talk to Jing Qiu, tease Miao'er, and live a good life. As for the eldest prince, the emperor finds another person to entrust him with it. From the perspective of my concubine, the empress thinks she is a good wife and mother, look at her How well you taught the second princess!"
"With the Queen's teaching, Hanfang is indeed a lot more sensible. The Queen already has Hanfang, and Chengxu can no longer be raised by the Queen."
The Sun family must never produce a prince!
"Concubine Xianggui and Xue Jieyu both have daughters. Du Fangyi is the only one who is old in the harem and has no children. Why doesn't the emperor raise Du Fangyi's position? Du Fangyi is a smart person, she must know What the emperor means by doing this is that he will treat the eldest prince well."
Although in Xiao Yan's eyes, Mrs. Du is also unreliable, but Jiang Ning refused to raise Cheng Xu, so he had to let Mrs. Du come.
Concubine De was posthumously titled: Imperial Concubine Yide. The funeral ceremony was very grand. After the first seven days of imperial concubine passed, two imperial decrees shocked the six palaces.
In the first one, Du Fangyi, who is at the end of Liuyi, was conferred as Jieyu; in the second one, the eldest prince who had just lost his biological mother was handed over to Du Jieyu to be raised.
After hearing the decree, the queen could hardly hold back her dignified face.
Her gaze slowly shifted to Du Shi who was smiling so hard that her teeth could not see her eyes. It turned out that she made a wedding dress for someone else in all her plans.
