Hairpin Phoenix - Chapter 704

   Chapter 704 Returning to Beijing (2)

  The reunion of father and daughter is indescribable joy.

  Lu Lin had to go back to the banquet, so it was inconvenient to stay for a long time. Reluctantly, he said: “When I have free time in the future, I will come to the palace to see your mother and son.”

  Lu Mingyu smiled and nodded.

  Li Con was reluctant to part with his grandfather and went to the banquet together.

  Li Jue actually wanted to join in the fun, and immediately smiled: “I’ll go too!”

  The imperial decree of Li Chu has been issued, just waiting for the canonization ceremony. Crown Prince Li Jue’s name has been set, although he is younger, it is not out of the ordinary to attend the palace banquet.

  Lu Mingyu smiled and said, “Alright. You two brothers take good care of your grandfather, don’t let him get drunk.”

  Li Jue Li Cong happily sighed and left with Lu Lin.

   Looking at Li Xuan again, his face was stuffy.

   She is getting older, and she also knows that there are differences between men and women. She is a princess, and it is not suitable for her to appear at the palace banquet where ministers gather. However, she is also very reluctant to grandfather!

Li Xuan’s thoughts were written on his face, Lu Mingyu saw it in his eyes, both distressed and a little funny, and reached out to hold his daughter’s hand: “Xuan’er, my mother will take you to Yongmei Palace and have lunch with your grandmother, okay? Okay?”

   Li Xuan replied listlessly.

  Lu Mingyu took her daughter into her arms again, and said softly, “Don’t be sulky. After the canonization ceremony of Ju’er, how about taking your brother and sister out of the palace?”

  Li Xuan’s eyes lit up, and all his anger suddenly disappeared: “Is what the mother said true?”

   Being a queen, shouldn’t you stay in the palace all the time and can’t leave the palace easily? Just like the grandmother, she hadn’t stepped out of the palace gate for several years.

  Lu Mingyu raised his eyebrows and smiled with black eyes: “Of course it’s true. When the time comes, I’ll take you on horseback to hunt for spring.”

   Li Xuan was elated and hugged his mother’s neck tightly: “The queen mother agreed to me, but you can’t lie to me.”

   “When did I lie to you?” Lu Mingyu laughed softly: “Don’t worry, I told your royal father that your father will not stop us.”

  Li Xuan replied with a smile: “That’s true. The father never rejected what the mother said.”

  Lu Mingyu smiled and led Li Xuan to Yongmei Palace to accompany Empress Dowager Qiao.

  …

   In the Shouning Palace at this time, there were cries.

   Li Xian knelt in front of Concubine Qin and banged his head three times: “Mother concubine, my son has returned safely.”

Concubine Qin cried with joy, holding her son and crying bitterly: “You are finally back. For more than a year, I have been thinking about your safety day and night. I often have nightmares, dreaming that you are surrounded by people, and I have also dreamed that you are messed up by people. The arrow shot to death.”

  Li Xian: “…”

   Can you hope I order it!

  Li Xian twitched the corners of his mouth, patiently comforting his crying mother. Zhao Yu, who was on the side, was also in tears, and kept wiping the corners of her eyes with her sleeves.

   Seven-year-old Li Chen looked over. It was like seeing my father for the first time.

   Li Xian glanced at his son while he was busy, and was enraged by his son: “Li Chen, what are you looking at, is it possible that you don’t even know your biological father?”

   Li Chen replied in a low voice, “I know you, but I haven’t seen each other for a long time, so it looks a little strange.”

  Li Xian: “…”

   After more than a year on the battlefield, it became dark and thin, which is not unusual. In the eyes of the child, it is probably like a face change.

   Zhao Yu was crying, but when she heard this, she couldn’t help laughing again. He reached out and patted the back of Li Chen’s head: “Don’t talk nonsense, come over and kowtow to your father.”

   Li Chen responded, walked over, knelt down, kowtowed three times, and called his father.

   Zhao Yu has always wanted to have another daughter. After Nai He gave birth to Li Chen, there was no movement in his stomach. For his only son, Li Chen, he was spoiled in every possible way.

   Li Xian also spoiled his son the most. Li Chen’s forehead turned red, and he felt distressed immediately. He pulled his son over to greet him.

Concubine Qin couldn’t cry by herself, so she wiped her tears and choked up: “No matter what, I’ve finally come back with all my hair and tail. There will be no more battles for Wei in the future. Even if there is a war, don’t do it. It’s stupid to rush forward. The fact that there are many generals in the Wei Dynasty is that you have to go all out.”

  Li Xian comforted Taifei Qin half-jokingly: “Mother’s words are right. In the future, there will be no battle for Wei to fight, and I don’t have a chance if I try my best. I can live in peace.”

   paused and then said, “I want to go and kowtow to the imperial grandmother.”

   Concubine Qin hesitated for a moment, then whispered: “Your grandmother only knows who I am, and the rest of you can’t remember. Also, you have to be extra careful when talking to her, don’t mention your father or Li Yi.”

   As long as the dead Yongjia Emperor or Li Yi is mentioned, the Empress Dowager Zhao will be provoked and attacked once.

   Li Xian felt a little sour when he heard the name taboo of his father and brother, and nodded in response.

   Zhao Yu led his son to wait outside, and Li Xian followed Consort Qin into Empress Dowager Zhao’s bedroom.

  Empress Dowager Zhao’s daily life is carefully taken care of, her clothes are clean, but there is no gold and silver jewelry on her head, only a transparent jade jade hairpin.

  The jade hairpin can’t hurt anyone, so if you change the golden hairpin or something, I’m afraid that Empress Dowager Zhao will hurt herself when she goes crazy.

   “Grandmother, grandson is back.” Li Xian knelt down and kowtowed three times.

  The Empress Dowager Zhao looked at it carefully for a while, as if she suddenly realized: “You are the fourth child, right?”

   actually recognized Li Xian.

   Concubine Qin was both surprised and apprehensive, and winked at Li Xian again and again. Tell him not to talk nonsense.

   Water light flashed in Li Xian’s eyes, and his voice became softer: “Yes, grandmother, I’m the fourth.”

   Empress Dowager Zhao stretched out her hand and touched Li Xian’s face: “Why are you so thin. Is there no money to spend? The grandmother has private money here, and I keep it for you.”

  Li Xian’s tears were about to fall.

Among the    brothers, he is the most loved by the royal grandmother. Since he was a child, he has often been in and out of Shouning Palace. When he grew up and married his daughter-in-law, the imperial grandmother had to be fair and eccentric, and specially asked people to send generous gifts on the day of marriage to support him.

   His affection for the royal grandmother is far deeper than that of other brothers.

   “Why are you crying.” Empress Dowager Zhao muttered, and touched Li Xian’s face again: “Huh? Why do I only see you but not your father. Your father and father haven’t come to see Ai’s family for a long time.”

   Then, he got up suddenly and rushed out. He shouted the name of Emperor Yongjia in his mouth.

   Concubine Qin was well prepared, and quickly rushed forward to stop Empress Dowager Zhao, who was suddenly insane. Several palace servants also rushed forward and stopped Empress Dowager Zhao together.

   Empress Dowager Zhao tore and struggled, and shouted angrily: “Go away! Go away! Ai’s family wants to see their son, what are you doing to stop Ai’s family?”

   Several palace servants were caught and torn apart, and one of them had blood marks on his face, which made him very embarrassed.

   Only Concubine Qin, who was closest to Empress Dowager Zhao, was not injured at all.

  Even if she lost her mind, Empress Dowager Zhao still remembered her most beloved niece.

  Li Xian’s nose was sour, and a few drops of boy’s tears fell.
