Chapter 718: Tell Everything You Know
Rong Chuxiu was a little flattered.
Although he was already the emperor, this was his first mission to another country, whether before or after he ascended the throne, and Dongling was the territory of the emperor's uncle and his aunt. These ministers were so polite to him that they actually gave him a child. There was an illusion that the emperor's uncle was amiable.
The envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty followed His Majesty the Emperor into the palace. Xie Shoufu said as he walked: "I have wronged His Majesty the Emperor today. The situation is really special. The Regent has no intention to pay attention to external matters, so he neglected His Majesty the Emperor and asked the Emperor and the envoys to Please forgive me for waiting outside for so long, His Majesty the Emperor and all the envoys."
Rong Chuxiu said hurriedly: "It doesn't matter."
"His Majesty the Emperor has come all the way here, and there should be a state banquet in Dongling. However, today we can only give in to His Majesty the Emperor and the envoys, and wait for the Regent and Her Majesty the Queen to free up -"
"It doesn't have to be too grand." Rong Chuxiu interrupted him quickly, "I just came here to see the emperor's uncle and aunt. You're welcome from my own family."
After the emperor's aunt gives birth to the child, she will have to confine herself. She will not be able to see the wind for at least a month. It is difficult for him to be a man to see him in person. The emperor's uncle has to take care of the emperor's aunt. Can you spare time to visit him in the past few days? Chu Xiu was not sure, so how could he dare to let Dongling host a state banquet?
It can only be said that his arrival was unlucky and he did not choose the right time. Of course, it was also because the two countries were far away and he had no way of knowing that Her Majesty the Queen was pregnant, otherwise he would not have been able to come at this time.
With his father and all the adults in the court here, Xie Jin no longer has the need to stay. After completing the task of bringing His Majesty the Emperor into the palace, he plans to go to the Dazheng Palace to resume his duties.
"Thank you, Mr. Xie." Rong Chuxiu saw Xie Jin was about to leave, and quickly called out to him, "Are you going to see the regent?"
Xie Jin was silent for a moment and raised his eyebrows: "What?"
"I'll go with you." Rong Chuxiu ignored the stunned expressions of other ministers and turned to order the envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty. "You stay here and chat with the adults. I will come when I go."
So under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes from the envoys of the Zhou Dynasty and Dongling ministers, Rong Chuxiu left with Xie Jin in such a swaggering manner, completely forgetting who was entertaining so many people.
"His Majesty the Emperor is really approachable." Xie Jin joked, "Are you in a hurry to pay your respects to the Regent?"
Rong Chuxiu glanced at him: "The Minister of Punishment should be a third-rank official, right?"
Xie Jin nodded.
"Do you think it's appropriate for a third-grade official to talk to me like this?"
Xie Jin raised his eyebrows: "You want me to kneel down to His Majesty the Emperor?"
"That's not necessary." Rong Chu corrected his expression, "But you can be a little more respectful to me."
"Except for Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince Regent, Xie has never been respectful to anyone else in his life." Xie Jin smiled lightly, "I'm afraid I will disappoint His Majesty the Emperor."
Rong Chuxiu choked, with a subtle expression: "Master Xie looks very...arrogant."
The last four words rolled around on the tip of my tongue before they came out.
Xie Jin nodded slowly: "Many people have said so."
Rong Chuxiu paused, thinking that this man was too arrogant. He even wondered if the emperor's uncle and aunt were as arrogant and arrogant when they first came to Dongling.
"I want to ask Mr. Xie a question."
Xie Jin nodded: "Tell me everything you know, and tell me everything I know."
"When the Emperor's uncle and the Emperor's aunt first came to Dongling, were you so arrogant?"
Xie Jin frowned slightly and couldn't help but look at him deeply.
Rong Chuxiu was confused by him: "What's wrong?"
Xie Jin shook his head: "Nothing."
Rong Chuxiu frowned, feeling that something was not normal about him.
Xie Jin just wanted to say that the emperor is so cute, but considering that the other party is the king of a country after all, he should save some face for him, otherwise... well, that's not right, he is now a famous person, You can no longer talk nonsense to other men.
Xie Jin sighed deeply and involuntarily began to miss the little leopard in the military camp again.
As soon as the two of them walked to the Dazheng Palace, they heard Po Wen's voice shouting: "Give a baby, baby! Her Majesty the Queen gave birth to the prince safely!"
"Congratulations to the Prince Regent! Congratulations to the Prince Regent!"
Rong Yu, who was dressed in light robes, breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the palace without stopping. Naturally, there was a lot of cleaning and comforting next. The palace was so busy that the regent probably couldn't get out for a while.
Xie Jin stood outside the palace gate, listening to your movements, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that your trip will be in vain."
Rong Chuxiu also breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face: "It doesn't matter, the safety of the emperor's mother and son is more important than anything else."
Xie Jin thought for a while: "Shall I take the Emperor to see His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Rong Chuxiu's eyes brightened, and he nodded quickly: "That's what I meant. By the way, I also brought a gift for my little cousin, and I will have it delivered to the Dazheng Palace later... The little prince is about two years old, and he has already started studying. Have you practiced martial arts yet?”
The emperor's uncle should be able to teach his son such a powerful skill. However, His Highness the Crown Prince was born with a noble status and was raised according to the standards of a prince. So he will definitely not have as much time to practice martial arts as the emperor's uncle. No matter how hard he works, he will probably only inherit half of the inheritance from his father. ability.
However, for a king of a country, it is already very remarkable that he can actually learn half of Rong Yu's skills. After all, he does not go to the border to fight, and his skills can only protect himself. Moreover, there are experts inside and outside the palace to protect him, so there is no need to do it himself. Something.
The two of them went to visit the little prince who was in class. In the inner hall of Dazheng Palace, the midwife and the palace servants carefully helped the Queen clean up her body. Rong Yu stood in the outer hall holding his newborn son. Because Hao'er was still young, he clearly remembered how Hao'er looked when he was just born, so he didn't think he was so ugly when he looked at such a young child at this time. However, men had little experience in this area, and no matter how hard they looked at him, they couldn't figure out who the newborn baby's facial features looked like.
Rong Yu waited for a while. After the palace servants were done and cleaned up the Queen, Rong Yu walked into the inner hall with the child in his arms. He sat down on the small stool in front of the bed and looked at Nan Xi, who was sweating and pale. There was a heartache and panic in his eyes that had not completely faded: "It seems to be smoother this time."
Although he felt like he was living a year in anxiety for half a day, he said nothing at this time. Nan Xi's safety was more important than anything else, and the worry was over.
"Yeah." Nan Xi nodded, "Do you still think your son is ugly this time?"
Rong Yu was silent, and Yin Yue and the palace people beside him laughed softly. They all remembered the wise and powerful Regent holding the Crown Prince with a tangled look on his face, and asked the Princess in a tactful way if she thought the child looked strange.
At this time, when he heard Nan Xi bring up the old story again, Rong Yu couldn't help but laugh: "Not ugly, as good-looking as your Majesty."
Nan Xi smiled and asked Rong Yu to put the child next to her, and Rong Yu did so.
"Since this child is a general, let's name him Zhan'er." Nan Xi stroked the child's face and said softly, "Rong Zhan."
Rong Zhan?
Several midwives and wet nurses were slightly stunned, and couldn't help looking at the newborn baby next to the Queen. His Majesty meant to let him take his father's surname?
But he is the second prince of Dongling, shouldn't he be crowned with the surname of the Xuanyuan royal family?
"No need." Rong Yu didn't care about it and didn't want to cause any trouble. "Just call him Xuanyuan Zhan."
Nan Xi thought for a while: "Use Xuanyuan Zhan in the royal family genealogy, but you can call him Rong Zhan on weekdays."
"Xi'er." Rong Yu's expression was subtle. "I really don't think the surname is that important. I don't plan to pass on any family business... Even if I want to pass it on, isn't the family business of the Xuanyuan royal family more important than a surname?"
