Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

After Emperor Chongzhao and the prince had their lunch, they walked slowly from the Zichen Palace to the Yinyu Palace, chatting and laughing.

This is not a close journey.

Prince Fu was actually sweating slightly.

It was not until now that Emperor Chongzhao confirmed that the desperate Wang Dalang, who had fought against the retired emperor on behalf of the four kings and eight dukes and other subordinates of the deposed crown prince, and had earned a way out for everyone with his own life, was really old.

Inexplicably, he felt a trace of pity for the eldest branch of the Wang family in front of him.

"The imperial concubine said that your wife is good at making tea?" Emperor Chongzhao gave the prince a way out.

Wang Zifu smiled bitterly and tried to make excuses: "My wife... ahem, actually, she doesn't know much about tea... She prefers wine or various sweet drinks..."

Emperor Chongzhao was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter!

His concubine made up a lie just to allow him to come and see his niece with his own eyes!

But this lie is not very well made up.

"That's no wonder. The imperial concubine doesn't like drinking tea. She was young a few years ago and didn't know the consequences, so she got drunk once.

"I swore an oath to abstain from sex for three years. It was only last year when I came to Daming Palace to attend the New Year's Eve banquet that I broke my vow."

Emperor Chongzhao chatted about family matters and entered the Yinyu Hall with Wang Zifu.

Wang Xifeng was the first to notice it, so she motioned to her mother, took her hand and stood up together.

He Ke looked back, beaming, and jumped up to throw himself at Emperor Chong Zhao: "Father!"

Wang Xuanhe also stood up hurriedly, and timidly stood next to Yuan, lowering his head as he had learned, without glancing at Emperor Chongzhao.

Everyone saw the emperor.

Emperor Chongzhao took the seat and gently asked everyone to sit down as well: "Since this is the Imperial Concubine's family banquet, I am an uninvited guest, how can I take over the show?"

He Ke immediately stuck to his side, whispering to him, "That's my mother's adopted sister, the youngest daughter of the Wang family. I have to call her aunt.

"Good father, I wanted my aunt to come to the palace to accompany me to study, but mother didn't agree and said we should wait for half a year.

"Good father, please help me talk to my mother and ask her to let my aunt come. We are so compatible!"

Emperor Chongzhao followed He Ke's words and looked at Wang Xuanhe intently: "Oh? This is the concubine's younger sister?"

Yuan hurriedly took Wang Xuanhe's hand and said, "Hurry up and pay your respects to His Majesty."

Seeing Wang Xuanhe's delicate appearance, Emperor Chongzhao sighed and turned to ask Wang Zifu: "But you haven't recovered yet?"

“I consulted many doctors, but they said that my foundation was weak and I suffered a lot when I was young, so I had to take it slow.

"You're doing pretty well now. You haven't fallen ill on the whole journey." Wang Zifu also looked at Wang Xuanhe with pity.

Emperor Chongzhao nodded and said: "There is an old doctor named Kong in the Imperial Hospital who is very good at women and children. When everything is settled, let him go over and take a look at her and take good care of her."

Prince Fu nodded and bowed: "Yes, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Wang Xuanhe was a little confused.

When did her affairs become the main topic of conversation among the emperor, the princess and her adoptive father?

Wang Xifeng saw her expression, smiled and held out her hand to her, pulled her to sit beside her, and said softly:

"Be filial to your father and mother for me. If you have any problems, send me a message. If you are walking outside and someone bullies you, show me my name."

Wang Xuanhe said shyly: "I will be cautious and behave properly, and will never cause trouble for my sister."

"You're overthinking it, aren't you?" Wang Xifeng laughed, "I told you exactly what it means!

"A mother is the most protective of her children, so if you go out with her, I won't worry at all.

"But you will have good friends in the future who will invite you out to play. At that time, there might be some blind people who will bully and exclude you because you are good-natured.

"When that happens, you must not swallow your anger. When it's time to be reasonable, be reasonable. If you meet someone who is unreasonable and bullies the weak and fears the strong, you should bring me up.

"If the other party doesn't even give me face, then remember her name and tell me. I will personally invite her to the palace and see who she is.

"Have I made myself clear this time?"

Wang Xuanhe's eyes welled up with tears: "Sister, you are so good to me!"

Wang Xifeng laughed out loud, first glanced at Emperor Chongzhao who was full of approval, then hugged Wang Xuanhe and shook him:

"You are my only sister, who should I treat if I don't treat you well?"

Wang Zifu interrupted at the right time and told him that Emperor Chongzhao had "reinstated" him and given him the position of head of the Ministry of Rites.

Yuan and Wang Xifeng both hurried to express their gratitude.

Wang Xifeng was especially grateful and said, "From now on, my mother and sister will not be ridiculed when they walk around the capital!"

Uh……

Emperor Chongzhao touched his nose guiltily.

In the capital, there are at least 8,000 officials of the chief rank. If you want to rely on this to avoid being laughed at, it is better to be a commoner, at least you can put on the pomp of a merchant and stun others by spending money.

I was only thinking about how to wear the prince's clothes to make myself comfortable, but I forgot that with his fame, this title would probably bring more humiliation...

but!

Emperor Chongzhao glanced at Wang Xifeng and had something in mind.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Emperor Chongzhao waved his hand and asked them to reminisce among themselves: "I have something else to do, so I will go now.

"If you have the chance in the future, come to the palace more often and visit the imperial concubine. She is bored alone."

Leave and don't mention it.

Without outsiders around, the family sat down and had a good talk.

At this time, He Ke also relaxed, and suddenly felt sleepy and yawned.

Wang Xifeng called out to Madam Ji, "Princess, it's time for your lunch break."

Nanny Ji hurried forward and tried to take He Ke away.

He Ke rubbed his eyes, bowed to Wang Zifu and Yuan Shi first, and said with a smile:

"Because I just found out that my grandparents were coming last night, and He Ke was in such a hurry that I couldn't prepare gifts for them properly.

"It just so happens that my father gave me a Dragon Boat Festival gift. I will borrow the flowers to offer to the Buddha and give them to my grandparents as a filial piety!"

Seeing Wang Zifu and Yuan Shi trying to refuse with surprise, he said, "If you don't accept her, then you don't treat He Ke as your own granddaughter!"

"This..." Yuan looked at Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng nodded with a smile: "When we first met, she accepted the gift from her grandparents and returned the favor with her own filial respect.

“This is a good kid who knows etiquette.

"Looking at us and Ke like this, I feel so happy and proud!"

He showed off to Yuan proudly, "Tell me, am I teaching well?"

Yuan laughed and nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Yes! You taught very well!"

Then he took the small box presented by He Ke and said with a smile, "If we accept the return gift from our granddaughter, then the gift that grandma prepared for us would be too simple.

"Let's go to my house tomorrow to clean up and then bring something in for you two! I guarantee you'll both like it!"

The whole family laughed and talked happily until almost the afternoon when the Wang family said goodbye and left the palace.

After returning home, Yuan opened the small box while listening to Wang Zifu quietly telling the emperor that he wanted to hand over the property under He Ke's name to his family for management.

The couple looked at the title deed of the hot spring villa and looked at each other in silence.
