Satisfied Female Emperor

Wang Taihang had a bitter expression on his face, "Why don't you guess the riddle?" I hope that Your Majesty will prepare some prizes. "

Tutor Qian hated his father so much that his teeth itched. He wished that he could be reborn as the king in his next life and become his father too often. With this identity, he could beat him up at any time!

Emperor Qing He personally toasted and said to Emperor Taizong, "In the past, it has always been me alone who wiped the artifacts. This year can be considered to be extremely good. Little Ru Yi has helped me greatly." The royal artifacts were all gold weapons and were kept by someone else. Although it was called wiping, it was actually wiping it with an extremely clean handkerchief.

Emperor Qing He only showed a little bit of exhaustion from dealing with the imperial government, but Wei Zhao had done most of the work.

Unfortunately, there were no successors in the Qian family, and there were no successors in the Wang family. As soon as Emperor Qinghe revealed his proud face, Mister Qian and Wang Taizong were no longer happy.

Wei Zhao ate and drank with his reading partners before running over to ask, "Father, please set a question. Your son is ready."

The Emperor cleared his throat and read a simple line, "Cold winter coiling dragon reclines, the early summer leaves open, the dragon's whiskers grow up, pearls fall down."

Tutor Qian said, "Grape, bring the prize money!"

Since the beginning of the riddle, Tutor Qian hadn't stopped speaking. Before long, the few cases in front of him were piled with all sorts of jade artifacts ordered by the emperor, even the riddles that the emperor often came up with.

When both Emperor He and Grand Preceptor Wang expressed their concern, Tutor Qian slapped a few cases against Wei Zhao. "Come here, let's have a pair …"

Wei Zhao could only obediently call for his reading mates.

First of all, he picked up the information from within the bamboo shoots, and it was all very easy to ask. Emperor Qing He and Emperor Huang all knew of this, but it was a pity that their faces weren't as thick as that of Tutor Fu's, so their reading companions would be able to answer it. If they encountered any difficulties, they would even be able to negotiate with each other.

The Yan Dynasty's custom felt that the number "Five" should be avoided, thus most of the families were at home during the day. When he heard the news, he frowned and sent the midwives over, the fatness raised by the beauty Wang, as well as the big stomachs, caused the midwives to expend a lot of effort. Although the children were out, they couldn't go on any longer, with green and purple colors, they didn't even last a day.

Hong Zhu whispered to Wei Zhao, "I heard that the little prince weighs a full eleven catties."

Wei Zhao asked, "How is Beauty Li?"

"Beauty Li is really thin, but she's incredibly thin. She has a child, and she's right next door to you. Your servant doesn't seem to have a big stomach, but I heard that Beauty Li doesn't eat much."

Wei Zhao understood what the red bamboo meant. Being too thin wasn't good for fertility. However, she could listen to these matters and Imperial Father would acquiesce to them, but she could not interfere in them. Some people were pitiful but even more detestable. They couldn't simply feel that she had no choice but to ignore her unconditional forgiveness for what she had done.

Indeed, at night, Lin mama called for people from the Eastern Palace to come speak. In the future, they weren't allowed to go to the Western Palace, so Wei Zhao didn't say anything else. Lin mama first came over to explain, "The Western Palace is His Majesty's imperial harem after all …"

Wei Zhao nodded. "It's good enough for mama to take care of this." If anything is amiss, grab them and hand them over to royal father. "

Not long after, Beauty Li successfully gave birth to a baby girl. The baby was weak, and the palace was so quiet that no one seemed to have been born. The East Palace was so tightly guarded that they didn't even know about this until the full moon. Wei Zhao estimated at the expression on Emperor Qing He's face and didn't ask a single question.

In the blink of an eye, it was already May. There wasn't much time left before the emperor agreed to see his family members again. Although the reading partners were taken care of by the palace and didn't have to worry about food or drinks, after leaving home for so long, there were still many who missed home. When they were together, they would often chatter about the circumstances in their own homes.

Wei Zhao changed into a new set of clothes. Ji Fang approached and whispered to her.

When it was time for dessert, Green Bamboo led Xu Lin to the back. Only then did Wei Zhao call for the others to step back. Unexpectedly, Xu Lin started crying all of a sudden.

It turned out that she was actually not a member of the Xu Family. The Xu Family had raised her for an unknown reason, but after raising her for two years, with her mother accidentally getting pregnant, Xu Lin had naturally been disregarded. She had been beaten and scolded; this time, when Xu Lin had entered the palace, the Xu Family had only treated it as a burden …

Xu Lin was not the only person in the world who cared about her children like pearls and hated debt collectors.

"It was only on the night before I entered the palace that I heard what my parents said and realized that I was not my biological son. In the past, when they beat me, I only thought that they despised me because I was a girl, but it was actually my parents who bought me from a kidnapper. I don't know if my biological parents were intentionally selling me off, or …" Xu Lin was a bit more mature than her peers, and she knew a lot more about them. She was usually very calm and collected, and she didn't want her background to be so rough.

Lin mama had to sigh at Xu Lin's background. There were many similar eunuchs and palace maids in the palace. It wasn't that many people couldn't afford to support their families, but that these people were simply despised by their families at such a young age.

"Grandma, Xu Lin doesn't want to see her family. Why don't you turn her down?"

Lin mama gave a start. "Princess, the families of the reading partners have long gathered in the capital. In order to prevent chaos, His Majesty booked an inn for them to stay. As far as this servant knows, all of the reading companions have come." This meant that Xu Lin's adoptive parents must have come as well.

Wei Zhao was silent. If the Xu Family didn't allow them to see Xu Lin, who knew what sort of things the Xu Family would arrange. Since Xu Lin was in the palace, if someone were to gossip about her, she would lose face for the royal family.

"Mammy, when the reading partners see their families, do they have a maid with them? "Xu Lin's group should have Red Bamboo accompanying them. I'd like to meet her once. If she wants to come back, then that's fine."

Lin mama nodded. "Yes, the princess is considerate. Why not arrange a palace maid for every reading partner? The princess' reading companions are all decent and have court ladies that understand the rules, so they won't say anything they shouldn't."

Just as Wei Zhao was about to nod, he suddenly remembered that his father had promised to meet her mother as well. At that time, it wouldn't be convenient for them if there were palace maids.

Most wealthy families would not be willing to let their daughters stay in the palace until the age of twenty-five. These families had a lot of children, and the ones who entered the palace were all girls, so in the future, they would be able to send a dowry, not to mention the one hundred taels of silver. In this way, it would be worth it.

Even the palace guards stood guard inside the inn. The parents were more afraid of the guards than curious, so they didn't walk around too much; this time, Du Su brought Boss Du along with them, and it wasn't that Big Brother Du didn't want to come, but he took on another job to earn money, but in the conflict with meeting his daughter, he was scolded by Du Su, "Seeing the money is opening your eyes." He could only resign and return.

"If you don't open your eyes to money, you won't even let me eat an egg."

"I can't bear to give it to you, then where did you get your fat? When I married you, you were as thin as a monkey! "Look at you, as strong as a bear. Who told you that I'm not giving you food? Does anyone believe me?"

"You were pretty thin before you married me. Why didn't you tell me?"

Du Su's chest puffed out, "At that time I was fatter than you, right? But now, I am thinner than you! "

Boss Du was defeated.

The East Palace had its own east gate. However, it was not normally locked, so it was necessary to open it for the reading partners to meet up with their families.

Before the sky brightened, the green carriage was already waiting quietly at the door. They had to line up to see their daughter.

The Du Family was quite lucky. The couple got up early in the morning, got into the first car, and entered the house.

If it wasn't for the sake of face, Emperor Qing He would have listened to his daughter's words. Even so, he had sent Official Zheng to Wei Zhao, while Tutor Qian had volunteered to be his disciple. Hmph, he couldn't believe that the heavy responsibility of accompanying the princess was still up to him.

The arrangement in the small hall was quite cozy. Du Su and his wife had arrived, but Wei Zhao hadn't arrived yet. The couple stood awkwardly in the middle of the room, but fortunately, Wei Zhao had arrived shortly after.

"Slow down, slow down, you're already sweating!"

In the end, was she his mother? It had been almost a year since he last saw her, but she still cared about her body.

Wei Zhao carelessly wiped his sweat. Yesterday, he had understood Tutor Qian's hint that he would be late when he came to eat with his father early in the morning. But there were benefits to be had as well. This was the first time he saw his parents.

He held his parents' hands and asked first, "Do you miss me?"

"Of course." A whole ten taels of silver is enough to last us ten months. Boss Du silently cursed in his heart, but he was still quite happy to see a girl.

"Then why aren't you skinny and fat?" Wei Zhao wrinkled his nose and asked.

Standing in the corner, the corners of Senior Officer Zheng's mouth twitched.

Only then did Madame Du Su see the live person in the room. Just now, she only paid attention to the girl and didn't even know when Senior Officer Zheng had arrived.

When Wei Zhao saw the Du Family looking at Officer Zheng, he smiled and pulled at his hand. "Mother, it's alright. This grandfather looks after me very much."

Grand Official Zheng broke out in a cold sweat. Princess, this old servant doesn't dare to be your grandfather!

Wei Zhao personally poured tea for his parents while Eldest Brother Du drank from the cup in front of him.

Dusu pulled her over and asked her if she had eaten well and if she had slept well.

Wei Zhao even replied with a smile, "My lady has grown up!" "Now you understand." As he spoke, he slapped down on Big Boss Du's large hand that was secretly taking the crystal grapes.

Wei Zhao pushed his plate in front of Boss Du and winked at her father.

The Du Family held Wei Zhao in their arms as they joked, "That's a lot heavier than before."

Boss Du reached out his hand. "Wu, Wu Sisi has finished her sweep!" Let me try how many pounds it weighs!

"Eat your food!" Dusu rolled his eyes.

After Wei Zhao asked about his home, Madame Du Su hurriedly said, "Your cousin went to the Prefecture with your uncle and aunt. Before he left, he even came to see me. A few days ago, he even received a letter asking if he had seen you!"
