Chapter 339 There will be times in the future when you will be silent!
"Zhan'er, don't be so presumptuous!"
At this time, a stern voice sounded amid a burst of sarcastic laughter.
And the person who spoke turned out to be Concubine Zhao Shu.
Listening to Concubine Zhao Shu's name for the third prince, it seemed that she was actually the third prince's mother-concubine.
Li Xuan was immediately surprised. He looked at the rough-looking third prince, and then at the elegant, dignified and virtuous Concubine Zhao Shu in the pavilion.
"This doesn't look like a mother and son."
Li Xuan could only sigh that the world is so big and full of wonders.
It seemed that the three princes had not inherited any of Concubine Zhao Shu's excellent genes.
The third prince was already on the verge of rage, but as Concubine Zhao Shu spoke, he immediately became honest.
Although her big face was still flushed, she walked honestly to the pavilion and came to Concubine Zhao Shu to respectfully salute her.
"My son, please pay your respects to your mother and concubine."
The Eighth Prince, who was hiding behind Concubine Zhao Shu, couldn't help but stand up straight and accepted the gift.
But the third prince didn't seem to care much about this, he just cared about Concubine Zhao Shu in front of him.
"This guy is tall and thick, but he really listens to his mother."
Li Xuan couldn't help but feel a little funny.
In his eyes, the third prince was also a person with a distinctive personality.
Although he didn't know where his hostility towards Princess Ankang and the Eighth Prince came from, since he listened to Concubine Zhao Shu so much, Li Xuan couldn't help but start to think more.
"Concubine Zhao Shu is a concubine of the noble family. Did Concubine Xiao have conflicts with them before?"
Li Xuan had stayed in the palace for so long, and it seemed that he had not met many of Concubine Xiao's friends among these nobles.
"It can't be that before Concubine Xiao was thrown into the cold palace, she was in a state of being surrounded by everyone in the harem, right?"
Li Xuan couldn't help feeling a little headache.
Speaking of which, apart from the last period of time with Concubine Xiao in Jingyang Palace, Li Xuan really knew very little about Concubine Xiao's past.
"If I have the opportunity in the future, I really need to inquire about Concubine Xiao's past situation. Why are there so many people in the palace who dislike her?"
Because in Li Xuan's impression, Concubine Xiao is a good person.
Gentleness and kindness were her most profound impressions of Concubine Xiao.
Princess Ankang has suffered so many injustices since she was a child, but she can still maintain a kind heart and not complain about others, all because of the teachings of her mother-in-law.
But for such a good person, not many people in the palace like her, which is really abnormal.
"Zhan'er, it's rare for you to return to the palace. You can't have conflicts with your brothers and sisters as soon as you come back, right?"
"Didn't I always tell you that family members should live in harmony with each other."
"You always act so recklessly. Not only do everyone have to laugh at you, but they also have to laugh at me as a mother-in-law for not educating you well."
Concubine Zhao Shu taught the third prince in a gentle tone.
But these words made the Eighth Prince look ugly, snorted coldly and walked out of the pavilion.
When the third prince saw that the eighth prince was angry and left the pavilion, he felt much relieved. He happily responded to Concubine Zhao Shu's words and humbly accepted the lessons from his mother.
And before the Eighth Prince had gone far, Concubine Zhao Shu said again:
"Okay, my son knows his mistakes and can correct them. There is no greater good than that."
"Come here quickly and let me take a good look. I haven't seen you for more than half a year, and you've grown a little taller."
The third prince immediately stood up and sat next to Concubine Zhao Shu. The mother and son held hands and communicated with each other. The relationship between mother and son looked very harmonious.
Judging from their demeanor and behavior, it doesn't look like they are faking it, but it also clearly means they are showing off to others.
As for who to show it to...
Li Xuan couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, taking a good look at Concubine Zhao Shu for the first time.
Those who looked at the garden had stopped laughing and turned their attention to the figure escaping from the pavilion.
It seemed that the third prince finally admitted his mistake and settled today's incident, but it was obvious that someone else was injured.
"These people actually use this kind of thing as a weapon to attack others."
Li Xuan felt chilled for these nobles in the harem.
What made Li Xuan even more dissatisfied was that the map cannon also affected Princess Ankang.
The Eighth Prince returned to the three little ones with a somewhat unnatural look on his face, and then said hello:
"It's not interesting here, I'll leave first."
"What I said before is true. If you need something, send someone to my place to ask for it."
After saying this, the Eighth Prince was about to leave the Imperial Garden.
At this time, Princess Ankang suddenly stopped the eighth prince.
"Myna."
The Eighth Prince turned back and looked at Princess Ankang.
"It's rare for me to go out today. I wonder if it would be convenient for me to pay you a visit. How about letting me pick out the horses?"
The Eighth Prince's eyes flashed slightly. This seemed to be the first time Princess Ankang called him this. In the past, she had always called him "Emperor Brother" politely.
Then, the Eighth Prince looked up at the people in the Royal Garden, nodded, and agreed directly.
"Okay, Ankang, just go back with me."
The Eighth Prince had the rare feeling that he was not alone facing everyone's gaze.
This feeling has not happened for a long time since he lost his mother and concubine.
The Eighth Prince walked back a few steps, came to Yu'er's side, and then said to her:
"Let me do it."
"I haven't tried pushing Ankang for a walk in the palace yet."
The Eighth Prince smiled, as if the previous unhappiness had been forgotten by him.
At this time, the third prince's inappropriate voice sounded again.
"Baby, don't hurt her."
The third prince paused meaningfully for a moment, and then continued:
"Ankang's body is so weak, how can she ride a horse?"
"Not to mention riding in the autumn hunt."
"Ankang, I am confused. Could it be that you are also confused?"
"Don't make fools along with them, and end up losing your life."
"The only way you can live longer is if you keep him in Jingyang Palace peacefully, right?"
The third prince seemed to care about his words, but every word had a different meaning.
Li Xuan also discovered that this guy was not as reckless as he seemed on the outside, at least he spoke with just the right amount of propriety.
His seemingly reckless appearance allows him to say outrageous words without restraint.
But there is a certain degree of restraint in this excessiveness, and it will not be taken out to make a big fuss about.
Even if someone wants to use this to attack him, his own character is a good excuse.
Li Xuan couldn't help but turn his eyes to Concubine Zhao Shu, and thought silently in his heart:
"He has taught a good son."
Princess Ankang listened quietly to the third prince's words, and then smiled slightly, and even her eyes narrowed into a beautiful crescent shape.
"Thank you for your concern, Brother Sanhuang. Please pay attention to your safety Ankang."
As Princess Ankang spoke, she suddenly stood up from her wheelchair and bowed politely.
And as Princess Ankang suddenly stood up, the imperial garden suddenly fell into silence, so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.
Everyone's eyes were firmly fixed on Princess Ankang.
Seeing her stand up from the wheelchair so easily, these nobles felt completely strange, and some of them did not dare to recognize that the smiling girl in front of them was the famous sick princess in the palace.
They had naturally heard of the rumors that Dr. Xue had treated Princess Ankang and had made progress.
It's one thing to hear rumors, but it's another thing to see it with your own eyes.
From the moment Princess Ankang stood up in public, many things were going to be different.
This is something everyone knows.
Li Xuan was hugged by Princess Ankang. Looking at everyone's wonderful expressions, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
"Just wait, there will be many times in the future when you don't dare to say anything anymore!"
After Princess Ankang saluted the third prince, she glanced at the silent imperial garden, then turned to the eighth prince beside her and said:
"Myna, let's go."
Princess Ankang stood up, so the Eighth Prince naturally no longer needed to push the wheelchair.
"oh oh……"
The Eighth Prince agreed, and then he left the imperial garden with Princess Ankang and a group of attendants.
It wasn't until their figures completely disappeared at the entrance of the Royal Garden that the bustle resumed here.
Suddenly there was a buzzing sound in the imperial garden. They were all talking about Princess Ankang.
The third prince looked even more gloomy and asked Concubine Zhao Shu on the side:
"Concubine, is her health really better?"
Concubine Zhao Shu shook her head, picked up the tea in front of her, and then said slowly:
"Who knows, the news just came out recently."
"I heard that Dr. Xue made new progress on Princess Ankang's condition, so she can walk."
"It is said that there is no cure for the disease, but this is the case now, and we can't say for sure in the future."
The third prince sneered and took over the conversation:
"Qiu Shou will be here this month, and she will be able to walk on the ground. How can such a coincidence happen?"
As soon as these words came out, the pavilion became quiet.
The third prince and Concubine Zhao Shu did not speak, and the other concubines in the pavilion pretended not to hear.
Concubine Zhao Shu was surrounded by concubines who were attached to her. Most of them belonged to the same noble party and were considered her own.
Among them are Feng Zhaoyuan and Wang Suyue.
Wang Suyue has left Yanqu Hall and officially became one of the concubines of Emperor Yongyuan, but her rank is still low and she can only sit on the edge near the entrance of the pavilion.
She was looking at the direction Princess Ankang was leaving, wondering what she was thinking.
Today is her first time attending a party in the Royal Garden.
Logically speaking, she doesn't have any children yet, so she doesn't need to pay attention to this competition.
But as a newly promoted concubine, as a member of the honorable party, she had to come and meet others.
Especially Concubine Zhao Shu, this person is an existence that she cannot avoid in her future career as a concubine.
But what she saw and heard today overturned her understanding.
Wang Suyue never expected that these nobles in the palace would make things so difficult for two children who had lost their mothers.
Even the prince and princess would be treated like this, which made Wang Suyue a little hard to accept.
But she still remembered the reminder Feng Zhaoyuan gave her before attending the party: listen more and speak less, and don’t speak if you can’t help it.
But now Wang Suyue is a little afraid to even listen.
"Even though Beiliang disappeared in the cold wave, she is still a threat."
The third prince said suddenly.
The other concubines immediately lowered their heads.
Concubine Zhao Shu saw all the reactions of everyone in the pavilion, and a trace of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.
At this time, she was conveying her message to the third prince through her mouth.
There are some things that Concubine Zhao Shu cannot say herself, but she must let her concubines clearly understand what she means.
"Ankang is also a poor child."
Concubine Zhao Shu said this and put down the teacup she had been playing with for a long time.
"It's rare for you to come back, so you'd better perform well in this autumn hunt and let your father see your progress."
As she spoke, Concubine Zhao Shu gave the third prince a subtle wink.
The third prince immediately understood that the heat was enough and there was no need for him to add more wood.
He glanced at the concubines in the pavilion. Although many of them were the first time he saw them, he could still identify them in his mind.
Because behind every concubine is a noble family.
These are the capital in his hands and the cooperative relationships that need to be maintained.
He does not allow anyone to turn his back on himself and turn to someone else.
"I understand, concubine."
The third prince agreed, picked up a piece of pastry on the table, threw it into his mouth, and swallowed it wholeheartedly like a cow chewing a peony.
"By the way, did your trip with Lan Ruo go smoothly this time?"
"Nine sisters beheaded thirty people and achieved military merit, which has been recorded."
The third prince smiled proudly and raised his hand to say hello.
Looking in the direction where he greeted her, he saw that in a corner of the royal garden, the girl who had come back with him earlier was standing obediently in front of a concubine, as if she was lecturing her.
The third prince and Concubine Zhao Shu looked there together, with smiles on their faces.
"Okay, as long as Lanruo is still willing to go, you can continue to take her."
In response to Concubine Zhao Shu's instructions, the third prince naturally nodded in agreement.
After saying this, the third prince and Concubine Zhao Shu chatted about daily life and stopped talking about those sensitive topics, which made the atmosphere in the pavilion lively.
Other concubines could also chime in, but most of them were to praise the third prince's rainbow farts.
Wang Su came here for the first time at the beginning of the month and wanted to see, listen and learn more.
Feng Zhaoyuan was relieved to see that her cousin had restrained her temper and stopped talking nonsense.
…
the other side.
Princess Ankang and the Eighth Prince left the Imperial Garden and headed towards Xiaoyao Courtyard, the Eighth Prince's residence.
"Ankang, you are walking really neatly now."
The Eighth Prince clicked his tongue in amazement, looking at Princess Ankang's long legs taking strong steps, and she didn't look like she had been sitting in a wheelchair all year round.
"It's all thanks to Dr. Xue's medical skills."
Princess Ankang lied without blushing and out of breath.
"It's always good to be in better health, otherwise you won't be able to persevere in this autumn hunt."
"The environment of the Forbidden Garden is no better than that of the Royal Garden, not to mention the fast-running prey."
"You can't catch them in a wheelchair."
The Eighth Prince seemed to have a lot of experience in hunting, and he spoke eloquently.
But compared to these, Princess Ankang wanted to know why the previous third prince was so malicious to the eighth prince.
"Bago, what's going on between you and that Third Emperor Brother?"
"It's just that we don't like each other, what else could it be?"
The eighth prince snorted, obviously furious when he mentioned the third prince.
