Chapter 67

It was a long break, but Hua Yang couldn't fall asleep at all, and lay on the same bed with Empress Qi, she lay in Empress Qi's arms for a while and talked, and then lay on the side for a while and was really going to sleep, but turned around soon after, her eyes sparkling, which is full of laughter.

Empress Qi said helplessly: "You, you, why are you still acting like a child."

Hua Yang: "I was originally your child."

She is a princess outside, and everyone respects her and fears her. Hua Yang enjoys that feeling, but she must also maintain the majesty of a princess at all times.I had to act like I wasn't interested, and was "forced" by Chen Jingzong to play for a while.Only by the side of her father and queen mother can she do whatever she wants without worrying about losing her prestige.

Empress Qi stroked her daughter's messy long hair, and asked again: "How is your relationship with the son-in-law? It's been two years since he left, has he ever made you feel wronged?"

She was relieved of the rest of the Chen family. After all, her daughter didn't need to deal with them day and night. Only Chen Jingzong, as her daughter's bed partner, was the most likely to have conflicts between the couple.

Empress Qi still remembered the resentment in her eyes that could not be concealed when her daughter was newly married and mentioned Chen Jingzong to her when she returned to the palace.

Hua Yang thought about it carefully, Chen Jingzong did often make her angry, but if he deliberately wronged him, Chen Jingzong really didn't do anything.

He would sleep obediently on the ground to keep her away from bugs, would secretly buy meat for her when she could only eat vegetarian, and would willingly carry her up the mountain when the flood came.

"No, how dare he wrong me." Hua Yang said, playing with a strand of hair, with a somewhat smug expression.

Empress Qi smiled: "It's one thing to dare, but it's another thing to think about it. Some sons-in-law are afraid of the imperial power and dare not beat and scold the princess. They may have beaten and scolded the princess countless times in their hearts. In the final analysis, it depends on how he treats the princess.Whether it is affectionate or not."

Hua Yang was silent.

Affection seems to be discussed by literati and scholars, or writing a letter of affection, or expressing affection in poetry or painting, and the sound of the piano and flute can also be used to express the heart.Like Chen Jingzong, he was good to her, but he never said sweet words once, but he said a lot of nasty words. As for what he said, even if she divorced, he would not touch other women, even if she died, he would not touch other women.Would like to be a ghost couple with her, it's all bullshit on the bed, Hua Yang didn't take it to heart.

Hua Yang is very sure that Chen Jingzong likes her body to the point of obsession, but this is the desire for love between men and women, is it equal to affection?

Hua Yang was more inclined to believe that one day the two really separated, as long as a beautiful woman with a beautiful face and snow skin was put in Chen Jingzong's room, Chen Jingzong would pounce on her.

Of course, the two didn't separate, Chen Jingzong naturally looked down on others when he got a princess like her.

"I don't care if he thinks about it or not, as long as he doesn't dare." Hua Yang said indifferently.

Empress Qi looked at her daughter inquisitively: "What about you, do you like son-in-law?"

Hua Yang: "I can't say I like it very much, it doesn't seem as unpleasant as it was at the beginning."

Her feelings for Chen Jingzong are more like a kind of satisfaction. It seems that as long as she needs something, such as she needs someone to carry her, and needs Chen Jingzong to go to Xiangwang Mansion to act, Chen Jingzong will consciously satisfy her.She has been disappointed.Hua Yang was satisfied, and Chen Jingzong came to court again at night, unless Hua Yang was really not interested that day, she would be willing to give it to him, after all, both of them would be happy.

Seeing her daughter's bright face like a flower, Empress Qi smiled softly.

In such a marriage arranged by the parents, it is already very good for the daughter to see Chen Jingzong pleasing to the eye, and it is better than having to share the same bed when she is obviously not pleasing to the eye.

After all, Hua Yang took the car all the way, and the drowsiness finally struck while talking, and he fell into a deep sleep.

Empress Qi turned around and lay on her back.

Seeing her daughter who was still a newlywed, Empress Qi thought of when she was young.

She was born beautiful, and her family was not bad. When she first fell in love at the age of thirteen or fourteen, she had hoped to marry a good man.

But she entered the palace as a beautiful girl and became Emperor Jingshun's woman.

Emperor Jingshun dotes on her very much, but an emperor's doting is just like that, he can spend the last night with her, and then spend the whole night with other concubines the next night.

Empress Qi didn't even have time to develop any affection for Emperor Jingshun, she was frozen by the emperor's passion, and now Emperor Jingshun is over fifty, and Empress Qi wished that Emperor Jingshun would not come to her to spend the night.

Compared with her, my daughter is much more at ease. Chen Jingzong is young, handsome, strong, and upright. Most importantly, Chen Jingzong and even the entire Chen family dare not openly offend his daughter.

So she still likes to be a queen, at least the latter position gives her the power to protect her son, and also allows her daughter to be like a fish in water in her husband's family.

Get these benefits, that illusory love, not worth mentioning.

Hua Yang took a very comfortable nap, and when he woke up, he knew that his younger brother had finished his afternoon schoolwork and came here early to wait for her.

Hua Yang hurriedly got up and dressed, and went out refreshed.

"Mother, sister hasn't come back for a long time, I want to take her to visit the imperial garden." The prince asked seriously.

Empress Qi smiled and said: "Go, don't delay too long, at most half an hour, your father should come over for dinner."

The siblings nodded and left holding hands.

Empress Qi looked at the hands of the siblings and shook her head slightly. Her son didn't like being disciplined like a child, but when he was held by his sister, he stopped pretending to be an adult.

What the prince wanted to talk to his sister was naturally different from what Queen Qi wanted to talk to her daughter.

The siblings came to a gazebo near the lake. Like a storyteller, Hua Yang told his younger brother many interesting stories about her in Ling Zhou.

The prince is full of longing for Ling Zhou, Dongting Lake, Wudang Mountain, etc. which are more than two thousand miles away. He also wants to go out for sightseeing, and also wants to catch corrupt officials in a place to punish evil and promote good.

Hua Yang ate a piece of melon and fruit, and said in a casual tone: "You are the only prince in our dynasty. For your safety, the queen father and queen mother will definitely not worry about letting you go out of the palace. You can't travel far away for the time being, butIt is not easy for you to punish the evil and promote the good, first learn how to be a king, and in the future the people of the whole world will count on your father and you to help them live a good life with plenty of food and clothing."

She followed her brother's words and turned to the main business, and the prince unconsciously turned his attention to the main business, and asked curiously: "Is the local people really living so badly?"

In her previous life, Hua Yang might really not understand this question. In this life, she heard the complaints of the people of Ling Zhou against King Xiang, and also learned about the situation in the guard from Chen Jingzong. Naturally, she can explain it in detail.Brothers come together one by one.

After all, the prince is a prince. He has the willful impulsiveness of his age, and he also has the concern and consideration for the important affairs of the court as a prince.

The whole world is the family business he will inherit in the future. Which prince does not want to inherit the country's wealth and military power, and which prince wants to inherit a nest of corrupt officials and mud soldiers?

If the sufferings of the common people can’t make him empathize, and he heard that many of the soldiers in the guards were starved to skin and bones, and their weapons were all tattered, the prince would be furious: “Fortunately, the son-in-law didn’t join forces with them, otherwise the mausoleumThe state guards will continue to rot, and all the military salaries allocated by the court have gone into the stomachs of those corrupt officials, but they can only send out a group of weak soldiers who make up their numbers!"

Hua Yang patted his younger brother on the shoulder comfortingly: "Okay, the matter has been resolved, so don't be angry, and remember what problems may arise in the local guards, so that you don't get fooled by the officer's rhetoric in the future. Hmph, my sister is going outAfter taking this trip, I understand that some officials have a respectful attitude when they hand over the booklet to the father, but in private they bully the father to stay away, and they don’t take the court seriously at all, including King Xiang.If you have enough guards, you might be kidnapped by the King of Xiang!"

Speaking of this, Hua Yang gritted his teeth, and looked disgusted by King Xiang again: "Once a man is lustful, there is nothing good for him!"

Just as the prince was about to nod, he was startled suddenly, looked around, and then winked at his sister.

As if Hua Yang had just realized it, he moved his head closer to his younger brother, and asked with a frown, "During the time I'm not in Beijing, my father is here, so what?"

The prince also looked sad.

His father treated him kindly, but most of his thoughts were spent on women, and sometimes he was clearly talking with him, and any concubine who pretended to be sick could lure him away.

The queen mother doesn't have messy men and women, except for caring about her sister, she spends almost all her thoughts on him, but the queen mother is too strict and controls him too tightly.

The crown prince couldn't tell whether he liked his father more or his mother more.

Fortunately, he also has an older sister, who not only has the gentle side of his father, queen, and queen, but also plays with him, so the prince likes his elder sister the most.

Hua Yang took the opportunity to teach his younger brother a little lesson: "Since you also think that the father is not good, when you grow up, you must not be seduced by the harem. If nothing else, it is not good for your health. My sister is not good.I count on you to support my sister for the rest of my life, it is best if my sister is gone, you are still strong and strong, and you look like a young man in your 30s or 40s in your 70s or 80s."

The prince sneered: "How is it possible, people will always grow old."

Hua Yang: "Ordinary people age quickly, and practicing martial arts can strengthen their bodies. For example, the Li Taiyi I met, he is almost sixty, and he can still collect medicines all over the mountains and plains with a medicine basket on his back.Feng Du has to be carried on his son-in-law's back, so it can be seen that good health has nothing to do with age."

The prince was surprised and said: "The son-in-law can still climb Tianzhu Peak with you on his back?"

Hua Yang smiled, and whispered to him: "The biggest advantage of a son-in-law is that he is physically strong. Once we climbed a hundred-foot-high mountain to watch the sunrise, and the son-in-law carried me to the top of the mountain in one breath.Far beyond ordinary people.”

The tall and straight figure of Chen Jingzong appeared in the crown prince's mind.

The prince looked at his slender arms again, he also had martial arts lessons, but he thought martial arts training was hard and refused to put his heart into it, his father did not force it, and the queen mother cared more about him studying hard, and did not interfere too much in martial arts practice.

But now, the prince is sincerely interested in martial arts, because he also wants to become as strong as his son-in-law, and he also wants to be able to climb Wudang Mountain when he is over 60 years old.

"By the way, how is Pavilion Elder Chen?" the prince suddenly asked.

Hua Yang thought for a while, and said: "Since Doctor Li cured him, it seems that there is nothing wrong with him, but Pavilion Elder Chen is a civil servant, unlike the son-in-law, when he avoided the flood, the son-in-law carried me up the mountain like walking on flat ground, Pavilion Elder Chen was helped up by his servants, and the two elder brothers of the son-in-law were also overwhelmed, quite embarrassed. It can be seen that civil servants and military officials have their own strengths and weaknesses, and there are only a handful of good men who are both civil and military."

The prince subconsciously straightened his waist, just wait, in a few years, he will become one of the few good men with both civil and military skills in the words of his sister.

The siblings reunited after a long absence, and they forgot the time as soon as they chatted. It was the palace people around them who reminded them that it was time to return to Fengyi Palace.

After dinner, Hua Yang was finally free to distribute the gifts she brought back to her family.

During the day she rested in Fengyi Palace, and now it was dark, Hua Yang took Chaoyun back to Qifeng Palace where she lived before she got married.

This is the name of the palace given to her by her father, so the Princess Mansion and Ning Yuan's residence in Capital City also use these three characters.

Qifeng Palace is the same as before she got married, but when Hua Yang lay on the familiar bed again, he could no longer fall asleep as carefree as the little princess in the past.

The father can take turns pampering the beauties in the harem, and the mother cares more about important affairs and the younger brother. The younger brother has to study now, and he will have concubines and children when he gets married in the future.

Even if she can return to live in the palace, she will gradually become a seemingly superfluous person to the palace.

And it seems that only her son-in-law can really stay by her side for a long time and form a family with her.

Chen family.

The courtyards of Chen Jingzong and Huayang were called Siyitang, but the Chen residence in the capital was a mansion bestowed by the emperor, and Siyitang was also a three-entry courtyard, which was much more spacious.

Before leaving Capital City, Chen Jingzong lived in the front yard and Hua Yang lived in the back.

Now that the Huayang people are in the palace, after Chen Jingzong had dinner alone, he thought about it, took a bath and changed clothes, and went to the backyard.

Here are the other two maidservants guarding Huayang, one named Chao Lu and the other Chao Lan.

Chaolu and Chao Lan don't know how far the relationship between the princess and the son-in-law has progressed. Their impression of the relationship between the couple is still at the time when the son-in-law was rebellious and the princess was always disgusted.

The princess is not here and the son-in-law is still coming, and the two maids are vigilant.

"Back off, I don't need you to wait on me."

Chen Jingzong stood in front of the already unfamiliar Babu bed, and said with his back to the two maids.

Chaolu and Chao Lan looked at each other, but after all, they gave face to the son-in-law, bowed their heads and exited the place that should belong to the princess alone.

Chen Jingzong took off his robe and sat on the bed.

There was no smell of her in the bed, but he seemed to see her sitting beside her, looking at him with disgust and vigilance.

At that time, she really didn't want to.

Looking back on that night at the inn again, Chen Jingzong lay down peacefully.
