Wearing a book, hooking him up

"Mother, why hasn't father checked my homework recently?"

Xingxing stood in front of Su Jingyao, her little face wrinkled and her mouth pouting.

All the unhappiness was written on his face.

"Why, can't mother check your homework for you?"

Su Jingyao sat upright on the couch, one hand gently holding the edge of the couch, and the other hand holding the homework written by Xingxing, reviewing it with a focused look.

Because the state of Jun has integrated the cultures of hundreds of schools, except for the two or three emperors who have maintained the status quo and did not expand the territory, the territory of the state of Jun has been expanding step by step since the first emperor of the state.

After three hundred years of rule, although the kingdom unified the languages ​​of various regions, it still retained some commonly used languages.

Therefore, Xingxing had to learn three languages ​​since childhood to adapt to different political and cultural environments.

His homework is also written in three languages ​​at the same time.

Not to mention, Su Jingyao has not learned the other two languages, so it’s no wonder that Xingxing dislikes her a little.

"No, if your mother checks your homework, I will slack off."

Xingxing lowered her head and rubbed her toes on the ground, her voice small and with a hint of reluctance.

A gentle smile bloomed on Su Jingyao's face, and she gently touched Xingxing's forehead with her finger.

He scolded, "You little brat."

Because Jun Zechen was too strict with Xingxing, Su Jingyao implemented an encouraging policy towards Xingxing and usually praised him.

Su Jingyao also understood the child's desire to admire the strong. Xingxing worked very hard on her homework in the hope of gaining Jun Zechen's approval.

"Recently, your father has some important things to arrange, so your mother will be checking your homework for a long time."

Su Jingyao put away her smile and her expression became a little serious.

"The Queen Mother will no longer be lenient with you from now on."

Su Jingyao spoke seriously, with seriousness in her eyes.

When Jun Zechen is around, she can be a loving mother, but when Jun Zechen is not around, she will naturally be strict.

There was some doubt on Xingxing's face, and her clear big eyes were blinking.

"Mother, will this son not be able to see Father for a long time?"

"In a few days, your father will go to war. When he returns victoriously, Xingxing will be able to see him."

Su Jingyao's voice was as gentle as the spring breeze.

"While my father is away, I will study hard and not let my mother worry."

Xingxing straightened his little body, looking serious and with a determined look in his eyes.

"it is good."

Su Jingyao put down the homework she was doing with Xingxing, gently held his face with both hands, and kneaded it gently a few times.

Xingxing also smiled and let his mother pinch his face, his eyes narrowed into crescents, with happiness and enjoyment.

At this moment, Jun Zechen walked in.

As soon as Xingxing saw Jun Zechen, her originally relaxed face immediately became serious, and she even moved her mother's hand away from her face.

He bowed respectfully, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Father."

"Get up." Jun Zechen's voice was low and majestic.

Su Jingyao sat on the couch and did not stand up to greet. Now that they were not outside, Su Jingyao and Jun Zechen saved a lot of formalities.

With a smile in her eyes, she watched with interest the father and son "pretending" to each other.

"Go check on your younger brothers and sisters, then go back and review the lessons your tutor asked you to review."

Jun Zechen's expression was serious.

He rarely acted intimate with Su Jingyao in front of Xingxing and always maintained a dignified appearance.

Xingxing was somewhat reluctant, her little mouth slightly pouted, like a little bun that had been wronged.

Her pink lips curled up higher and she looked at Su Jingyao pitifully, seeking help.

He twisted his body unconsciously, obviously not wanting to leave.

Su Jingyao knew that Xingxing was still attached to Jun Zechen.

She chuckled and got off the couch and walked over to Xingxing.

She bent down and gently picked him up.

Then, she turned around and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, I can't hold you anymore."

After saying that, he handed the star to Jun Zechen.

The stars were surprised for a moment, their eyes wide open like two bright gems.

Then he looked at his always serious father curiously, feeling nervous. Would his father hug him?

Jun Zechen looked at her expectant eyes, his heart softened, and he reluctantly took the star from her hand.

Xingxing immediately put her arms around Jun Zechen's neck and smiled at Su Jingyao with satisfaction.

Obviously very happy.

After hugging for a while, Jun Zechen put Xingxing down and touched his head.

Only then did Xingxing retreat happily.

After Xingxing left, Jun Zechen walked to the couch and sat down, looking a little tired.

He placed his head on Su Jingyao's shoulder, and said lazily, "What are you doing, Yaoyao?"

"I was just checking Xingxing's homework. He did very well, but what Xingxing wants most is the recognition of you, his father."

Su Jingyao tilted her head slightly with a gentle smile on her face.

"Xingxing does a good job every time. His average standard is the high standard for others. Therefore, I will only praise him when he performs beyond his own average standard after I get to know him better."

Jun Zechen closed his eyes and spoke slowly.

"Lest you become proud at such a young age."

Xingxing has been the center of attention since he was young. His status is so high that people around him, including the tutor, are all very kind to him.

Only Jun Zechen can suppress him.

Su Jingyao nodded in agreement.

Then Su Jingyao seemed to remember something and frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty, Xu Ronghua and Yan Ronghua gave birth to princes a few days ago. Xu Ronghua's is the sixth prince, and Yan Ronghua's is the seventh prince."

This month, Jun Zechen devoted himself to the preparations for the expedition. He was so busy every day that he almost worked around the clock.

Su Jingyao seldom saw him, so naturally he knew nothing about the birth of Xu Ronghua and Yan Ronghua.

In addition, Jun Zechen had specifically instructed Anshun not to bother him with matters concerning the harem and to leave everything to the queen to handle.

So even if Anshun knew about this, he did not mention it.

When Jun Zechen heard the news from her, he knew that he had two new princes, but his face did not show any ripples.

He said softly "Hmm".

"Although only a concubine can raise an heir to the throne, I do not want Xu Ronghua and Yan Ronghua to be separated from their son. In this case, I would like to change this rule."

Su Jingyao slightly turned sideways and looked at Jun Zechen with questioning eyes.

"I am going to promote the two Rong Huas to the position of the head of a palace. As long as they are the head of a palace, they can personally raise the heir. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

"Well, Yaoyao can make the decision."

Jun Zechen was probably really tired. He rested his head on Su Jingyao's shoulder and put one hand intimately around Su Jingyao's waist.

Her eyes were slightly closed, with her long eyelashes lightly covering her eyes, as if she was resting.

"Yan Ronghua's father is a Guanglu doctor, and the Yan family is also a prominent family. Although she is a concubine's daughter, she has made great contributions by giving birth to an imperial heir. She can also be the head of the nine concubines, Zhaoyi, and live in the main hall of Yuqing Palace."

Su Jingyao's voice was soft and calm.

Yuqing Palace was originally the palace of Concubine Lan, but a few days ago Concubine Lan was deposed and imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment, so Yuqing Palace became empty.

"Xu Ronghua's family background was not so good, so he was named Xiurong and lived in the main hall of Changle Palace."

Changle Palace was previously where the guilty concubine Lin lived, and the main hall happened to be vacant.

Among them, Princess Yafu of Yuelin Kingdom, also known as Yajieyu, lived in the Zi Lan Hall of Changle Palace.

I don’t know if Jun Zechen listened carefully to what she said, he just nodded slightly.

Since he had no objection, Su Jingyao would go to the study to write the imperial edict later.

A few days later, today is the day when Jun Zechen sets out for the battle.

Su Jingyao, dressed in gorgeous and solemn attire as a queen, came to the top of the city gate.

She wore a dazzling phoenix crown with swaying pearls and jade, sparkling with brilliant light, and every step she took seemed to be pouring out with brilliant light.

The phoenix robe on her body fluttered gently in the wind, but it could not hide the worry and concern between her brows.

Outside the city gate, fluttering flags fluttered wildly in the wind, making loud noises, as if heralding the coming bloody storm.

Jun Zechen was wearing thick and shining armor. The patterns on the armor flashed coldly under the sunlight, like cold stars.

He stood as tall and straight as a pine tree, and looked heroic, like a god of war descending to earth, intimidating.

The warhorse under his crotch seemed to sense the upcoming journey and its hooves kept stamping the ground.

He was restless, snorting, and spewing white air, as if he couldn't wait to rush to the battlefield.

Jun Zechen raised his head slightly and looked at Su Jingyao who was high up at the city gate.

His eyes were as deep as the sea and as firm as iron, revealing his deep reluctance and attachment to Su Jingyao.

When I went to war as a young man, I only brought with me a sense of longing and the joy of being away from the gossips of the capital.

But now because she is in the capital, I feel particularly reluctant to leave.

Su Jingyao always had a gentle smile on her face, the corners of her mouth raised to just the right angle, and her eyes were shining.

She and Jun Zechen looked at each other. No words were needed. Their feelings were conveyed to each other in their eye contact.

Jun Zechen could feel that she admired his determination to expand the territory, and he would definitely return triumphantly and bring her glory.

Afterwards, Jun Zechen turned his head suddenly and quickly, looking at the high-spirited soldiers behind him.

He held his sword high, his arm stretched out, and the blade gleamed in the sun.

He shouted loudly: "My fellow soldiers! We are going to fight to expand our territory and enhance our national prestige! I will lead you back in triumph!"

His voice was loud and powerful, like a huge bell, full of inspiring energy, and every word seemed to carry a tremendous force.

The soldiers responded in unison: "We are willing to follow Your Majesty and win every battle and every attack!"

The sound was deafening and went straight into the sky, as if it was going to tear the sky apart.

Jun Zechen squeezed the horse's belly with great force.

The war horse neighed, raised its front hooves high, and then galloped away into the distance, raising a cloud of dust.

Miaoyun followed her master out of the palace to bid farewell to His Majesty, and saw the sadness of parting on her master's face.

With the slightly drooping mouth corners and dull eyes, Miaoyun didn't know how to comfort him.

Over the past year, Your Majesty has been so good to the master.

Miaoyun also seemed to feel that her master had developed deeper feelings for His Majesty.

But before Miaoyun could figure out how to comfort her master.

Su Jingyao immediately said, "Let's go, Miaoyun, let's go to the carriage and change into our palace clothes."

Her tone was light and the sadness on her face seemed to disappear instantly.

Miaoyun looked confused.

"Master, aren't we going back to the palace?"

"And did the master bring any clothes with him?"

How come she doesn't know.

"Well, I asked Miaoxia to prepare folk women's clothing. Today we will play outside the palace before going back."

There was a hint of excitement in Su Jingyao's eyes, and she was a little excited.

Miaoyun looked at her master's slightly suppressed happiness and couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.

She thought her master was really reluctant to let her go!
