Chapter 61: 3 Lives 3 Worlds Peach Blossom Zhihe 21

"Xiao Xuanzi! Tell me, did I trust that old Taoist too much?" Shanglin Yuanhui frowned slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of doubt and uneasiness.

Seeing this, Xiao Xuanzi, who was standing beside him, knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Your Majesty is so wise and enlightened that there is no one in the world like you. How dare I question your decision in the slightest?"

Xiao Xuanzi knew that his master was resolute and resolute, but sometimes he would worry about something. At this moment, even though he grew up with Shanglin Yuanhui, he had to deal with it carefully so as not to anger the emperor.

Shanglin Yuanhui sighed and said slowly: "That old Taoist claims that he can communicate with the gods and predict the future. I believed him at first, but now I feel that he is a little unreliable."

Xiao Xuanzi lowered his head and remained silent, thinking about how to answer. After a moment, he raised his head and said softly: "Your Majesty, destiny is hard to predict, and things in the world are unpredictable. Even if the old Taoist really has supernatural powers, he may not be able to predict everything. Moreover, Your Majesty governs the country with benevolence and virtue, recruits talents, and the people support you. This is the greatest auspicious sign. Why should you rely too much on the predictions of others?"

Shanglin Yuanhui listened to Xiao Xuanzi's words and nodded in agreement. However, he still couldn't let it go. After all, as the king of a country, every decision he made was related to the country and the welfare of the people, and he couldn't afford to be careless.

Xiao Xuanzi saw Shanglin Yuanhui's thoughts and continued to comfort him, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Many wise rulers in history created a peaceful and prosperous era with their own wisdom and courage. You just need to stick to the right path, follow the will of heaven, and you will naturally be blessed by heaven. As for what the old Taoist said, just take it as a reference."

Shanglin Yuanhui smiled slightly, patted Xiao Xuanzi on the shoulder and said, "You are the one who knows how to comfort me! Get up, accompany me to the garden for a walk and relax." After that, the two of them stood up together and walked towards the imperial garden.

Shanglin Yuanhui and Xiao Xuanzi strolled in the imperial garden, admiring the blooming flowers and green plants. As they walked, Shanglin Yuanhui suddenly stopped and looked into the distance thoughtfully.

"Xiao Xuanzi, how can I better govern the country and let the people live and work in peace and contentment?"

Xiao Xuanzi quickly replied: "Your Majesty, you have implemented many benevolent policies, reducing taxes, building water conservancy projects, selecting talents, etc. As long as you continue to persevere, the country will surely become more and more prosperous."

Shanglin Yuanhui nodded, but there was still a trace of worry on his face: "But, I always feel that it is not enough. There are still many problems that need to be solved, such as the wars on the border and the corruption in the officialdom..."

Without thinking, Xiao Xuanzi knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not speak nonsense about the affairs of state."

Shanglin Yuanhui's eyes flashed with determination: "Well, you are sneaky and cunning. Okay, let's not discuss this matter anymore and go see the princess."

As he spoke, Shanglin Yuanhui continued to walk towards Kunning Palace. His mood gradually brightened. He believed that as long as he worked hard, he would be able to become a wise ruler and create a more glorious era.

In Kunning Palace, the queen slowly woke up. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked softly, "Mammy, how is the princess? Has she woken up?"

The maid who was waiting on the side quickly replied: "Your Majesty, the little princess has woken up and is eating in the side hall. The nurse is holding the little princess and feeding her. I think she will bring the princess over to you in a while."

The queen nodded to show that she understood. She tidied her messy hair a little, then sat on the bed, looking towards the door with gentle eyes, looking forward to the arrival of the little princess.

Soon, the nurse came into the room holding the little princess. The little princess's face was as cute as a jade sculpture, her big eyes were rolling around, and she was sucking the pacifier vigorously.

The queen was delighted to see this. She reached out her hand and gently stroked the little princess's cheek, saying softly, "My dear daughter, are you full?" The little princess seemed to understand what the queen said, and she grinned. She looked so adorable.

"By the way, has your Majesty named the little princess?" asked the Queen.

"Your Highness, the Emperor named the princess Shao Wan. This is unique. The eldest prince did not receive such treatment when he was born. I'm afraid that Your Highness will have to spend money on a few more tea sets." The nanny found it funny.

"Mammy! You really need to control your mouth. There are some things you can say, but there are some things you absolutely cannot say! Look at what you just said. How can you say these things casually? You know, there is a reason why the princess was given a name by the emperor.

Think about it, today's rain came at such a timely moment! It just solved an urgent matter in the emperor's mind, and it can be said that it saved the emperor's life! And our princess was born at this time, isn't this fate destined by heaven? That's why the emperor was so pleased and gave the princess such a precious name.

Besides, as the ruler of a country, how can we mortals guess what the emperor is thinking? Maybe the emperor has other deeper considerations! In short, we just need to do our own things and take good care of the princess, and leave the rest to the emperor and God!

Mammy, please don't speak so recklessly like today in the future, or you may end up in danger of getting yourself killed! Remember that? . "Lin Yufei said in a bad tone.

Nanny Lin knew what she said was wrong when she heard what the queen said. How could a servant talk about her master behind her back? Nanny Lin quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. It was me who spoke without thinking. Please calm down."

At this moment, a loud and solemn announcement came from outside the palace: "His Majesty has arrived!" This voice was like thunder, echoing in the air. After hearing the announcement, Lin Yufei raised her hand slightly and said softly: "Mammy, please stand up quickly. Since His Majesty has arrived, there is no need to kneel down and salute." Her tone was calm and gentle, but it revealed an irresistible majesty.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will help you lie down." Nanny Lin quickly stood up and went forward to support the Queen and let her lie down on the bed.

Just after Nanny Lin covered the queen with a blanket, Lin Yuanhui walked into the bedroom and said, "How is Yufei? You've worked so hard. You should have a good rest. We will hold a grand full-moon banquet for Shao Wan. For the third day of her birth, let the prime minister's wife and the prime minister go to the palace to see the princess. The prime minister did take a look at the princess outside the palace that day. Let the prime minister come in to see the princess and you tomorrow."

The queen was slightly startled, and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, I know you respect my father, but the harem is a forbidden area of ​​the inner court, and it is difficult for outsiders to enter easily. I am afraid that doing so will cause criticism and damage the dignity of the royal family! I hope Your Majesty will think twice."

Shanglin Yuanhui waved his hand and said comfortingly, "My beloved concubine, don't worry. The Prime Minister has made outstanding contributions to the government and is deeply loved by me. He is old and should understand the royal etiquette. Besides, this is not completely without reason. The princess is a blessing to our Shanglin Dynasty. It is a good omen from heaven. Letting the Prime Minister meet her in the side hall is not wrong. I think everyone can understand this good intention."

In fact, in Shanglin Yuanhui's mind, this was just a small gift to the prime minister, and he did not consider too many other factors.

Seeing that the emperor had made up his mind, the queen stopped trying to dissuade him and just nodded slightly to show her agreement. Shanglin Yuanhui smiled with satisfaction and said, "It's settled then. Tomorrow I will personally host a banquet for the prime minister and his wife to celebrate for my beloved daughter." After that, he gently stroked the little princess' face, his eyes full of love.

The next day, the prime minister and his wife came to the palace as promised. In the side hall, the prime minister finally saw the little princess. He was so excited that he trembled and picked up the little princess, looking at her pink face, tears welled up in his eyes.

"This child is so cute, she will definitely become a great person in the future." The prime minister whispered softly, his eyes full of love. He stared at the delicate little girl in front of him quietly, as if he had seen her brilliant future achievements.

The maids around couldn't help but smile at each other when they heard the prime minister's words, but they didn't dare to disturb him. They knew that the prime minister loved the little princess very much and would often come to visit her alone.

At this moment, Shanglin Yuanhui walked into the room. He saw the prime minister and the little princess at a glance, and a smile appeared on his lips. However, when he heard the prime minister's praise for the princess, he couldn't help laughing.

"Prime Minister, I didn't expect that you like the princess so much. In that case, why not give the princess a title?" Shanglin Yuanhui suddenly had an idea and suggested.

The Prime Minister was stunned at first, then nodded repeatedly to show his agreement: "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty! I am very happy. I think the birth of the princess happened to solve the urgent need of His Majesty, which is a blessing for Shanglin. In my opinion, it is better to name the princess 'Pingdu'. I hope that the princess can live up to her name and bless our country with peace and prosperity."

After hearing this, Shanglin Yuanhui nodded slightly to show his satisfaction. He thought that the title "Pingdu" was a good choice, as it was both profound and grand. So, he smiled and said to the prime minister: "It's settled then! From now on, the little princess will have her own title - Princess Pingdu. I hope she can thrive and live up to everyone's expectations." After that, Shanglin Yuanhui gently stroked the little princess's forehead, then turned and left the room.

The prime minister remained where he was, silently watching Princess Pingdu, his heart full of expectations and blessings. In his opinion, this young princess will surely have an extraordinary life journey...

In this way, this innocent, lively and lovely little princess was given another meaningful and awe-inspiring title - Pingdu.

After the third day of the bath, there was another grand court meeting. After that, the general stayed in the study.

"Your Majesty, I have carefully investigated. When the princess was born, the legitimate son of King Yizibingjian was also born. The difference between that and the birth time of Your Highness the Princess was only half a quarter of an hour!" The Protector of the Nation general knelt on his knees, bowed his head and clasped his fists, and reported to Lin Yuanhui respectfully.

Shanglin Yuanhui frowned slightly, as if he was a little surprised by this coincidence: "It was only half a quarter of an hour different? Then, were there no other children born in the capital at that time?" His eyes were as sharp as swords, falling directly on the Protector of the Nation General, as if he wanted to see through all the truth through his eyes.

“Your Majesty, there was no crying baby in that capital city. Only the princess and the royal family had babies crying.” The general who protected the country bowed his head even lower, not daring to anger the man on the dragon throne.

"Okay, go out. I'll think about it." Shanglin Yuanhui raised his hand to let the Protector of the Nation General go out.

As soon as the Protector of the Nation General left, the room suddenly became quiet. "Sure enough! Were you really born on the same day? Could it really be you? Lu Cunxing! I didn't expect that we were really destined to be together! Those jokes we said back then are actually coming true now! Hahahaha~ When you grow up, you must help me seize this vast country like your father assisted my father! Not only that, in the future, your descendants must continue to assist my descendants just like you did! It seems that my Shanglin family and your Mo family are really destined to complement each other!"

Shanglin Yuanhui's laughter echoed in the empty study, and his eyes sparkled with excitement. He stood up, walked to the window, stared at the sky in the distance, and made up his mind secretly.

"Someone come here!" Shanglin Yuanhui shouted loudly.

A eunuch came in and knelt on the ground, waiting for the emperor's order.

"Pass on my decree and order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to carefully prepare Princess Pingdu's hundred-day banquet. It must be grand and splendid. At the same time, grant generous rewards to the Yizibingjian Palace to commend his family for the birth of a son." Shanglin Yuanhui ordered.

The eunuch took the order and left. Shanglin Yuanhui turned back to his desk, picked up a pen, and after thinking for a moment, wrote a secret letter. He sealed the letter, called his trusted guard, and handed it to him solemnly.

"Deliver this letter to Prince Mo personally, without any mistakes." Shanglin Yuanhui said seriously.

The guard took the letter and left quickly. Shanglin Yuanhui was full of expectations. He believed that the gears of fate had begun to turn and the picture of the future was gradually unfolding.

In the distant borderland, time seemed to pass very slowly. When Mo Xinyi finally received the letter from the emperor, a full half month had passed. At the same time, a letter from the palace was also delivered.

Mo Xinyi opened the envelope and read the words inside carefully. However, after reading the letter, he burned it to ashes without hesitation, and ordered his men to prepare generous gifts and prepare to return to the capital.

"Deputy General Zhang, what's going on with the prince? Why does he suddenly want to return to the capital?" The soldier at the side couldn't help but ask curiously.

Deputy General Zhang glared at the soldier fiercely and said in a stern voice: "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask! How can you little people like you casually discuss the prince's decision?"

After saying that, Deputy General Zhang turned around and left, and began to pack his luggage. Seeing this, the little soldier A did not dare to say anything more, and hurriedly followed suit.

At this moment, Mo Xinyi was thinking about the various situations he might face after returning to the capital. And the burned letter became a secret that no one knew...
