The Empress Dowager in the Cining Palace had just laid down to rest when she heard Dongxue from the Yanx Palace saying that Concubine Ling was pregnant.

She had been upset for a long time because of what the emperor had done, but at this moment she felt inexplicably happy that the royal family was finally going to have another child.

She didn't want to lie down any longer, so she asked Nanny Gui to help her get up. She wanted to go see Concubine Ling.

He asked someone to prepare some gifts, and after packing up, he headed towards the Yanxi Palace.

When Concubine Yu, who was in Yonghe Palace, learned that Concubine Ling was pregnant, she hurriedly sent someone to prepare some gifts and visit Concubine Ling in Yanx Palace.

--------

What happened in the palace had not yet reached the convoy on its way to the palace.

Little Swallow was sitting in the carriage, feeling extremely bored. She calculated that she had been sitting in the carriage for twenty days, so why hadn't the carriage arrived yet?

She pulled aside the curtain and looked at the guards riding horses outside, her eyes full of longing. She still had to wait a long time before she could ride a horse. She really wanted to ride a horse and then gallop as much as she could. How free and comfortable it would be.

Unfortunately, she is only three years old now. Her father said that she should be at least seven years old before she can learn to ride a horse, otherwise, she will easily fall.

Alas, there are still three and a half years until she turns seven.

Oh, seven years old, that’s such a long time.

Ugh.

When the other people in the carriage heard Xiaoyanzi sighing, they couldn't help but look at her.

Ertai squeezed next to Xiaoyanzi and asked with concern, "Sister Xiaoyanzi, what's wrong with you? Why are you always sighing?"

Xiaoyanzi held her chin with her hand, sandwiched between Ziwei and Ertai. She glanced at Liu Qing, Liu Hong and Erkang opposite her, then looked at Xiao Feng and Qing'er on her left, and finally looked at Yongqi and Benjamin on her right, and sighed.

Instead of answering Ertai's question, he asked, "I don't understand. We can obviously take two carriages, why do you have to squeeze in with us? Don't you feel crowded? I feel like I'm going to be sandwiched."

Ziwei, Qing'er and Liuhong nodded in agreement. It was indeed a bit crowded. With so many people, there was almost no room to move their feet.

Erkang and others couldn't help but laugh awkwardly.

Yongqi scratched his head and said, "It's more lively with more people, everyone can chat and play together."

Xiaoyanzi rolled her eyes imperceptibly. It was indeed lively and crowded, so mosquitoes had no trouble sucking your blood.

"Xiaoyanzi, you haven't told me why you sighed before."

Benjamin looked at Xiaoyanzi and asked her with a smile.

Little Swallow sighed again and said, "I want to learn how to ride a horse. If I knew how to ride a horse, I could ride it outside. But my father told me not to learn how to ride a horse until I'm seven. Sigh. It's a pity that I can't ride on the grassland outside."

Yongqi thought for a moment and said, "Actually, it's not that difficult. When we return to the palace, we will learn to ride horses when we are about six years old. Princesses should be able to learn it too. But I don't know the details yet. I need to ask Uncle Fu Liu."

When Xiaoyanzi heard this, her eyes lit up for a moment, but what was the difference between six years old and seven years old?

Isn't it still impossible to ride a horse?

So, the disappointed little swallow wilted again.

Seeing this, Xiao Feng smiled and reached out to touch Xiao Yanzi's head. "If you want to ride a horse, tell me. I can ride a horse now and have my own pony. We can go down and I will take you for a ride. I think Dad will agree."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoyanzi instantly looked up in surprise and shouted, "Now her brother is ten years old and can ride a horse a long time ago. There should be no problem in letting her brother take her for a run."

So she smiled and nodded, then shouted loudly to stop the car.

The driver outside heard the sound and stopped the car immediately.

The convoy slowly stopped.

Everyone in the car was dumbfounded as they watched the brother and sister act in disbelief.

But it must be said that Ziwei and Qing'er were a little envious, and they also wanted to ride horses.

The emperor, Xiao Zhihang and others in front couldn't help but stick their heads out to take a look when they heard the noise from the children.

When Xiao Zhihang saw Xiao Feng bringing Xiao Yanzi off the carriage, he couldn't help but get off to take a look.

When he heard that Xiao Feng was going to take Xiaoyanzi for a ride on horseback, he became a little worried, so he suggested taking Xiaoyanzi for a ride on horseback himself.

Xiaoyanzi looked at her father and became even happier. She simply left her brother behind and let her father ride the horse to take her away.

Ziwei sat in the carriage, watching Xiaoyanzi being held on the horse by her father, and then carefully taken on a horse ride by him, her eyes full of envy.

Hongli, who was not far away, saw this scene and felt a little pain in his heart. He owed Ziwei too much. After saying goodbye to Yuhe, he also got off the carriage, then stretched out his hand, smiled and said to Ziwei, "Ziwei, can I take you riding?"

Ziwei was stunned. She really didn't expect that the usually steady emperor would also want to take her horseback riding?

Yongqi and others were also stunned. Is this still the majestic emperor?

Hongli was not in a hurry either. He looked at Ziwei with a loving face and stretched out his hand for her to hold.

Ziwei was stunned for a moment, then nodded happily, stretched out her little hand and placed it on her father's hand. Then, the emperor held her directly in his arms and held her on the back of a horse led by a guard.

Ziwei was a little scared by the feeling of being lifted up instantly, but the next moment, she was protected in the arms by a pair of big hands that gave her a sense of security.

Ama's smiling voice came from above my head, "Don't be afraid, Ama is here."

Ziwei felt very sad, her eyes were slightly red, but the corners of her mouth could not stop rising, and she nodded, "Yeah, Ziwei is not afraid."

Little Swallow, who was not far away, saw it, her eyes were full of smiles, and she shouted loudly, "Come on, Ziwei, let's compete together."

At this time, the other children in the carriage were somewhat reluctant.

"Ahhh, we want to play too, we want to play too!"
