Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger

"Father, you really are..."

Lu Lingzhu burst into tears, and tears instantly covered her entire little face.

Emperor Yuan Qing was stunned by her loud voice, and Xiao Jingzi quickly signaled to the palace maid next to her to comfort her.

We must not anger the emperor, otherwise Princess Lingzhu and Concubine Li will be the ones who suffer.

The palace maids naturally understood this, and stepped forward one by one on the left and one on the right.

Wiping tears, speaking soft words, and being in a panic.

Only Emperor Yuan Qing looked at them quietly, with Huai'an's usual appearance emerging in his mind.

He had seen Ah Xiao scold Huai'an more than once, but he had never seen Huai'an cry, let alone howl like Lu Lingzhu and lose all his manners.

Most of the time, the little guy would argue with his father with confidence, and if he couldn't win the argument, he would ask for help.

For example, him, for example, the Queen Mother.

In short, the little guy has long known that he needs to create an advantage when he has no advantage.

I also know that tears are the least valuable things.

He never relied on others to get what he wanted, but always tried to get it on his own.

This is what a royal son should look like.

"enough!"

Emperor Yuan Qing was fed up with listening to this.

Originally, I was tired of reviewing memorials and wanted to go out for a walk and get some fresh air.

Now I feel even more annoyed.

It would be better to go back to the Imperial Study and continue reviewing memorials.

Emperor Yuan Qing turned and walked back up the path he had come, leaving Lu Lingzhu in tears.

This little episode soon reached the ears of the Queen Mother and Concubine Li.

The Queen Mother heard that Lu Lingzhu was willing to offend the Emperor in order to stand up for Qin Ruoyi.

He was so angry that he kept calling Lu Lingzhu a fool.

"The Qin family's youngest daughter is a brainless person. If she dies, she dies. There's no need to stand up for her!"

He shouldn't give up the opportunity to maintain the father-daughter relationship with the emperor for her.

Nanny Yu whispered to comfort the Queen Mother, "Princess Lingzhu has always been simple-minded. Perhaps when she grows up, she will understand your hard work and conscience."

"It's useless. Lu Lingzhu hasn't even learned half of her mother's wisdom."

Concubine Li herself had the same idea as her.

She had Lu Lingzhu brought to her, and after asking her about the whole process in detail, she became so angry that her face turned blue.

"Zhu Er, you are confused!"

"Mother, Zhu'er is telling the truth. Why do you and father look as if the sky is falling?"

"Are you also like your father, looking down on Zhu'er because she is a girl and cannot compare to a male heir?"

Concubine Li held her forehead with her hand.

In the past, she had no intention of vying for favor, and thought that as long as her daughter was happy and healthy, that was all that mattered, so she had never told her daughter about anything dark.

But now it seems that she was so wrong.

With Lingzhu's personality, if no one protects her, she won't be able to survive in the imperial palace, let alone an ordinary family.

"Mother, father said that Huai'an earned all the honors and favors by himself. But he is obviously younger than Zhu'er. He is not much different except that he is sweet-talking and can study a little. Why does father favor him so much?"

"Don't you really know why Huai'an is favored by your father?" Concubine Li was still unwilling to accept it and tried to guide her daughter to think for herself.

After Lu Lingzhu pondered for a long time, she slowly spoke, "I only know that he is the male heir that my father and grandmother wanted."

"My sister once said that Huai'an was of a lower class than us and shouldn't be above us in everything."

The imperial sister she was referring to was Lu Lingshan.

In the past, Lu Lingshan relied on her status as the legitimate daughter of the empress to suppress Huai'an.

But no matter how long she prepared or how well she prepared, she never won over Huai'an.

Lu Lingshan was unwilling to accept the defeat and became more and more courageous as she faced more setbacks, but this also made the Empress Dowager and the Emperor dislike her even more.

"Zhu'er, listen to your mother," Concubine Li held her daughter's shoulders and spoke in a calm tone.

"Huai'an is favored by your father, the biggest reason is not only because he is the prince of Heng, but also because he caters to your father's preferences and makes your father favor him actively."

"If you want to be as favored as Huai'an, you must be able to please your father like Huai'an. You must never cry in public like you did today again. Do you understand?"

"Then how can I please my father? I am not as good at studying as Huai'an, nor am I as sweet-talking as him, my memory is not as good as his, and I can't build a powerful mechanism. Is there no hope for me?"

Concubine Li held her forehead again, "Please let your mother think about it."

It is an established fact that my daughter is mediocre and not as talented as Huai'an.

So how can we explore the advantages of Lingzhu in a new way based on the limited basis?

She needs to think about it carefully!

Xiao Jingzi soon found out that Lu Chenxiao and his wife did not plan to bring Huai'an to the banquet at Cui's house.

Emperor Yuanqing made up his mind and went straight to Prince Heng's mansion after court the next day.

No one was sent to deliver a message to Prince Heng's mansion in advance, nor was the gatekeeper allowed to inform them.

When he rushed to the martial arts training ground where Huai'an was, he happened to see Huai'an holding a red tasseled spear and fighting against two sword-wielding guards.

The sword flashed with cold light, Emperor Yuan Qing's brows jumped, and he subconsciously wanted to shout to stop.

But what surprised him was that although Huaian was small, his stabbing movements were very skillful.

The movement to avoid the sword tip was also very swift, and one could tell at a glance that it took a lot of effort.

Meng Yunshang was wearing a bright red outfit, with her long black hair tied into a high ponytail. She stood on the sidelines with her hands behind her back, reminding Huai'an from time to time.

Therefore, Huai'an fought against the two men for more than ten moves and still showed no sign of defeat.

Seeing that Huai'an's strength was gradually running out, Meng Yunshang said tiredly, "Okay, that's enough for today."

Xiao Jingzi wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to announce the arrival of the emperor, but was stopped by Emperor Yuan Qing.

Then Huai'an leaned on his spear and asked in a baby voice, "I still have strength. Mom, can you show me the fifth move of the Cheng family spear technique again?"

"Aren't you tired?"

"Not tired, not tired. I have endless energy now."

Meng Yunshang wiped the sweat off his forehead and jumped onto the platform. "Okay, then practice with mother again."

After holding the spear, Meng Yunshang seemed like a different person.

From a woman in the inner chamber of Prince Heng's mansion in the capital, she suddenly became a powerful female general on the battlefield.

Emperor Yuan Qing was very surprised. Meng Yunshang was indeed incomparable to the noble ladies in the capital.

No wonder she was able to tame Ah Xiao and teach Huai'an to be extraordinary.

A mother and her son, one red and one blue, one tall and one short.

Meng Yunshang danced vigorously in the front, and Huai'an followed behind her and imitated her very well.

The martial arts training ground was surrounded by servants from Prince Heng's mansion.

They are no longer surprised by this scene and would even make a few comments when they have time.

"Although the prince has been resting for many days to recover from his injuries, his basic skills are clearly still there."

"Not only is it still there, but this Qinggong has even reached a higher level."

"Of course not. After all, the prince has been chased by Xuanwu and Xuanqi a lot these days."

"And Ling Yu, her Qinggong was praised by the prince himself. With them as sparring partners, how can she not improve?"

"Indeed, it's great for them to have a master, but our prince's masters are lining up to teach him."

"You can't say that. The master can only teach you the way, but it's up to you to practice. The most important thing is that our prince is very talented and can learn things quickly."

"That's right, don't you see how outstanding the prince and princess are?"

"We are so lucky to have such a little master."

"Who says they aren't? The prince, princess, and the prince are all very good people. It is our honor to work in the palace."

Amid the different voices, Emperor Yuan Qing turned his head and asked Xiao Jingzi, "Why do you think they admire Prince Heng and his wife so much?"

Xiao Jingzi answered tentatively, "Perhaps it is because the prince and princess are kind and they have realized something?"

"You are right. People are kind to each other. Because they are kind to others, the servants in the mansion also believe in them and respect them."

Just like governing a country and restraining its ministers.

"Your Majesty said so."
