Chapter 406 How to solve the problem of the first wife
Master Tong's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the prince's heart - a mother's status is determined by her son, so doesn't that mean the prince wants to take Bijun back with him?
The Tong Mansion's carriage went farther and farther away, and finally disappeared in the vast night.
The cold moonlight shines on the earth and on the prince's worried face - the matter between him and the first wife should have a result, but for some reason, he is very resistant to dealing with this matter!
"My Lord, why haven't you come to eat yet?
"Fujin has sent people to ask several times!" Xiao Luzi's anxious cry broke the quiet of the night.
The prince turned around silently, looked at the excited Xiao Luzi, and replied calmly:
"Go back and tell the maids that Fu Jin is almost eight months pregnant and they must take good care of her. There must not be any mistakes!"
Xiao Luzi looked at the dejected prince and asked in surprise:
"Why are you alone, my Lord?
Fu Jin asked the kitchen to prepare a lot of dishes that the children like to eat!"
After Xiao Luzi finished speaking, he looked around again. He thought the child was hiding somewhere and playing with them!
Xiao Luzi couldn't help but shout:
"Xuan'er, come to Xiaoluzi!
Come back with me and take a look, that table is full of your favorite foods!"
The prince said calmly:
"The child went back with Master Tong!
Go back and tell Yu'er to stop wasting her time!"
Xiao Luzi had a lot of questions in his mind: Why did the prince look so unhappy? Why did Master Tong want to take the child back?
But when he wanted to ask the prince in detail, he found that the prince had already left.
Although Xiao Luzi felt a little nervous, he still went back to the main hall.
As soon as he walked in, he immediately put on a cheerful expression, as if nothing had happened.
"Fujin, you guys eat first!
The prince is a little tired, so he's going back to rest first!" Xiao Luzi smiled, his voice trembling slightly.
Daiyu couldn't help but feel a little suspicious - why did the prince suddenly get tired? And he didn't bring the child with him, so what was going on?
Just as Daiyu was lost in thought, Siyu slowly stood up from her seat.
She gracefully picked up a quail leg and gently placed it on Daiyu's plate.
Then, Siyu winked at the maids beside her, indicating that they should serve more jade soup to Fu Jin.
The maids understood what she meant and hurried forward to add more dishes for Daiyu.
Daiyu's thoughts were pulled back. She forced a smile and thanked Siyu for the dish she brought her.
These days, the prince has been busy looking for the child and they didn't even have a chance to talk.
Just now, a servant came to report that the child had been found and was sent personally from the Tong Mansion. The prince had agreed to bring the child over for dinner later, so why is he suddenly not coming now?
Daiyu was drinking the soup in her bowl nonchalantly when she suddenly heard Jiao Rou mocking her:
"Oh, what a waste of all the delicious food on the table!
What a pity, it’s a thankless job! "
Siyu was eating assorted meatballs. When she heard Jiaorou say this, the sticky meatball in her mouth almost fell to the ground.
She hurriedly pulled Jiaorou with her hands, signaling her not to be so excessive in front of the maids!
Unexpectedly, Jiaorou threw the dishes and chopsticks in her hands onto the table in a fit of anger, almost breaking the delicate little plate!
The sound of dishes colliding was particularly harsh, but Daiyu could only remain calm and smiled:
"Sis, if you don't want to eat, go back to your room and have a good rest!
It's no big deal, but you're just throwing plates and bowls. You don't want the girls to laugh at you for being so rude!"
When Jiaorou heard this, she felt as if someone was slapping her hard in the face. She hurriedly stood up, bowed to Daiyu, and left angrily.
Before anyone could react, Zijuan hurried to Jiaorou's front and blocked the door with her body. She said to Jiaorou with a smile on her face:
"Concubine, this is not the rule. Are you going back to your room before the principal wife has finished her meal?
If this gets out, won't people laugh at our palace for being unruly? "
Jiaorou wanted to scold Zijuan loudly, but how dare a little girl talk to her like that!
But when she saw Daiyu's cold face, she couldn't help but return to her seat.
Seeing Daiyu calmly drinking the soup in her bowl, she had no choice but to calm down and wait for everyone to finish eating.
The prince was lazily lying on the recliner in the study, his body leaning back slightly, as if he had lost all his strength.
The cold moonlight shone on him through the window frame.
The moonlight illuminated the prince's worried face. His brows were furrowed as he secretly pondered how to deal with the matter with Bijun.
"The best way to achieve peace in this world is to neither disappoint the Tathagata nor disappoint you!"
When he muttered these words softly, he suddenly realized that there were some things he really could not do anything about!
His hands fiddled idly with the handles of the chair, his fingers rubbing unconsciously.
He closed his eyes slightly, as if escaping from reality, or as if in deep thought.
The eldest wife was like a thorn, deeply piercing his heart.
When the thorn first pierced his body, although the pain was unbearable, he could still bear it.
But now, when he wanted to pull out the thorn, he found that it was already tightly connected to his flesh and blood, causing him excruciating pain!
The door suddenly opened with a creaky sound. The prince thought that Xiao Luzi had come to bring him soup and rice, so he still lay there motionless, allowing the person to come to him.
"Your Majesty..."
The mournful yet familiar cry of the visitor suddenly brought the prince back to reality - Yu'er is here!
The prince quickly opened his eyes and saw Daiyu who was extremely worried.
He pulled a chair over and asked Daiyu to sit down. He pretended to be calm and asked Daiyu:
"Why are you here so late?
Even though the weather is getting warmer, it's still cold at night. What should I do if I catch a cold?"
Daiyu did not say anything, but nodded slightly, indicating Zijuan to hand the bowl of bird's nest and lotus seed soup to the prince.
She gently stroked her bulging belly. It had been eight months. When she woke up this morning, she found that her feet were swollen beyond recognition!
She looked at the few white hairs that suddenly appeared on the prince's head, and felt a pang of sadness in her heart. She couldn't help but said distressedly:
"Look at you, how come you've become so thin?
The meal isn't even good, why not try this bird's nest and lotus seeds?"
The prince stared blankly at the bird's nest and lotus seed soup in his hand. The plump lotus seeds seemed to be Hongxuan calling him softly, "Father..."
"Lotus seeds" - "loving children", which parent doesn't love their children?
The prince felt bitter in his heart. Although the lotus seeds were bitter, loving his son was even more bitter!
However, how will the matter with the first wife end?
The prince took a bite of the lotus seeds that were cooked soft and glutinous, but felt only bitterness in his mouth.
He sighed softly, then put the bowl of lotus seed soup back on the table, as if the lotus seeds were as heavy as his mood at the moment.
The prince only felt a deep sense of powerlessness surging in his heart!
"Yu'er..."
The prince's voice was choked, as if it was a low whine coming from deep in his heart.
He is really tired and exhausted!
He buried his head helplessly in Daiyu's legs, muttering:
"How should we resolve the issue between Dafujin and Hongxuan?
The Tong family took the child away, what should I do? "
