There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 54
The prince is an adult, has married a concubine and entered the court as regent.

Xia Houyan has not yet married a concubine, and is only a prince. There is no hard and fast rule on when he will enter the court.

If he is not favored, it is not impossible for him to be unable to be a regency for the rest of his life.

You can tell just by looking at Prince Ping, he has not been regent until now, the terrible thing is that Emperor Jing Yuan seemed to have forgotten about this person, and only let him be an idle prince, not even giving him half a job.

You must know that King Ping had both ability and political integrity before he fell from the horse, and he was given high hopes.

It's just because I fell off the horse during the spring hunting, and the root of the disease fell on my leg, and I was a little lame.

It's just that lameness is not fatal, nor is it a brain injury, but even this is discarded, which is really embarrassing to say.

……

anyway.

Hearing what his father said, Xia Houyan was very happy.

Just thinking of his mother's thousands of exhortations, he just laughed, polite and well-founded.

"Father is upright and upright, and he is at the peak of his age, and with the help of his brother, there is no need for sons and ministers to make trouble!"

"My son hasn't finished reading well, and he hasn't mastered martial arts yet. I'm afraid I need more guidance from you!"

Emperor Jingyuan was successfully pleased by these two sentences.

No one is willing to admit their own aging, especially the emperor.

Xia Houyan said that he is still young and still has to study, doesn't it just mean that he is still young, this really suits him very well.

It's just... Naturally, he couldn't express his intentions, so he blamed him with a smile on his face.

"You child, I think you are just lazy!"

"That's it!"

"I'll let you go for another two years, and let your mother choose a concubine who is educated and reasonable, so that you can take care of yourself!"

"Thank you, Father!"

Xia Houyan didn't admit it, nor denied it, just thanked him and smiled without saying a word.

Xia Houjue, who was on the other side of Emperor Jingyuan, kept a cold face and remained silent.

It's just that King Ping followed behind the father and son, looking even more lonely.

The palm of his hand holding the horse's rein was clenched into a fist, his joints were white, and there was a strong forbearance in his eyes.

Back then, he was also the second prince of the Great Xia Dynasty with both ability and political integrity.

Back then, he was praised by his father in every possible way and had high hopes for him.

Back then...he was like Xia Houyan, bright and enthusiastic like a ball of fire, joking around on horseback.

It's a pity that all of this stagnated in the spring of my year.

He didn't understand how he fell off his horse because of his excellent riding skills, and he couldn't even figure out how that old horse that knew the way would suddenly go crazy.

Afterwards, he fell into a coma and was taken back to the palace for treatment. When he woke up, he sent someone to investigate. The horse had been cleaned up, and there was still half a trace of it.

He hates it!He hates it!If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have gone!

When he was lowering his head in annoyance, he suddenly grabbed his clenched fist with both hands.

King Ping looked up and saw that it was Xia Houjue.

"Third brother?"

"Second brother!"

King Ping turned his face away, concealed his emotions, and asked calmly.

"Why are you lagging behind, hurry up and catch up with the father!"

Xia Houjue nodded and patted the back of his hand.

"Second brother, don't think too much!" After speaking, he turned his horse's head and left in a hurry.

King Ping looked at his gradually loosening fist, lowered his eyes, and finally sighed.

……

The team traveled all morning and finally arrived at a post house at noon. Emperor Jingyuan ordered the team to stop for a meal and rest.

Everyone should be like this, those who got off their horses got off their horses one after another, those who got out of their carriages got out of their carriages, and the men and women were separated to rest in their camps.

Tang Wanning woke up feeling a little hungry.

But because she was unable to move, she didn't get up, she just asked on the low couch.

"Is there anything delicious?"

Bi Yue smiled and said: "You forgot, you wanted to eat wild game two days ago, but you were too embarrassed to ask His Royal Highness to ask for it, so you asked your servant to go to Madam to ask for it!"

"Early the next morning, Madam sent the cook over there to bring a lot of rabbit meat, all of which have been cleaned up! The servants cooked them according to your favorite way of eating before!!"

"There are spicy rabbit heads, diced rabbit meat, and sweet and spicy rabbit legs, all ready-made!"

"Last night, the servant also ordered the small kitchen to bake some thin cakes. You will heat them up with the heat of tea later!"

"And the milk powder we used to eat in the northwest, cheese balls, salted rice tea, and..."

"Okay, okay!" Tang Wanning swallowed her disappointing saliva.

"Come on, I've lost my appetite from that bowl of medicine in the morning, and I'm so hungry right now!"

Bi Yue smiled: "Your servant knows that you like the master! Just wait, this servant will go right away!"

After speaking, he turned and got out of the carriage, went to the small kitchen to get a basket, and came back in a while.

It took Tang Wanning less than a quarter of an hour to eat the hot, spicy and spicy meal.

"Really delicious!"

Thinking that other people's dry food is nothing more than steamed buns and pancakes with snacks and hot tea, she feels secretly refreshed.

Sure enough, whether it is cooking or intelligence, modern people will enjoy it more!

……

She was eating happily when Mrs. Tang came over suddenly.

Seeing her daughter eating happily, her heart that had been hanging for a moment finally came to rest.

"Mom! Hurry up and come in and eat something!" Tang Wanning greeted while gnawing on the rabbit's leg.

Mrs. Tang came in and sat down on the cushion in the carriage, and nodded her forehead angrily.

"My girl, are you still so heartless?"

"My mother won't eat it! You can eat it yourself!"

Tang Wanning giggled, put the rabbit's legs aside, stretched out her greasy paws and pulled Mrs. Tang's sleeves.

"Mother! What's the matter with you! What happened to make you..."

Mrs. Tang hated iron and steel and nodded her forehead.

"Others don't know what happened yesterday, but I understand it clearly!"

"If it wasn't for the crown prince, your little life!"

Tang Wanning flattened her mouth.

"Yes, my daughter knows! The grace of saving life should be repaid by the fountain! Don't worry, my daughter will remember it in the future!"

Mrs. Tang gave her a white look, just exhorting her.

"You are so reckless, it is common for the prince to be angry!"

"You can't do this in the future! The crown prince is the heir apparent after all, so you have to measure yourself!"

Tang Wanning looked at her mother's serious face, and knew in her heart that it was indeed her fault, so she said solemnly.

"Don't worry, Ma'am, I will definitely be a good wife and mother in the future!"

"You said, how about I give him some beautiful wives?"

Tang Wanning blinked innocently and muttered in a low voice.

God, is she really sincere?Didn't ancient men like three wives and four concubines?

Mrs. Tang sighed.

"Aniang doesn't know what the prince likes!"

Anyway, she won't give her husband a concubine, even if he likes it, otherwise, her leg will be broken!
……

After Mrs. Tang left, Tang Wanning pondered for a while while eating.

In the end, I decided to start with the method that men in ancient times liked, and get a few beautiful wives first!
