Noble Consort Qing's words made Tang Zhenzhen blush uncontrollably. Xu Chang, who was at the side, laughed and said,""Consort Mother, stop teasing Zhenzhen."
Imperial Consort Qing clutched her chest and pretended to be sad.""A son forgets his mother when he has a wife.”
This time, Tang Zhenzhen was even more embarrassed. Xu Chang, who was at the side, walked over helplessly and held Noble Consort Qing's hand. He said helplessly,""Consort Mother, this is Tang Zhenzhen, the person I told you about.”
Noble Consort Qing teased," I know. Are you afraid that I won't treat her well?"”
"How would I dare?" Xu Chang said immediately, and Tang Zhenzhen quickly walked over to pay her respects.
Noble Consort Qing quickly supported him and said," Why are you so polite? We'll be a family from now on."”
Tang Zhenzhen, who was originally lively and active, did not know what to say because of her words. She could only lower her head and say nothing.
Noble Consort Qing only treated it as a girl's embarrassment and did not say much. She just said to Xu Chang,""Why don't you stay here for dinner?”
Xu Chang looked at Tang Zhenzhen awkwardly when he heard Noble Consort Qing's words. Tang Zhenzhen wanted to go back. After all, she had come here without telling her family.
Noble Consort Qing saw that she did not say a word and secretly frowned. She still liked girls who were more lively. Why didn't she hear that the daughter of the General's Estate was very lively? However, he was listless here.
Seeing that her child was also in a difficult position, Noble Consort Qing said lightly,""Today is Chang 'er's birthday. Zhenzhen, stay!”
Since Noble Consort Qing had already said so, she could only agree. For some reason, she felt very uncomfortable here. Was it because this was the palace?
Noble Consort Qing was very happy to see Tang Zhenzhen nod. She ordered the dishes to be served and went to the screen to take out something and put it aside.
Tang Zhenzhen, as General En's daughter, guessed that it should be a sword. She immediately lowered her head and stopped looking.
Meanwhile, Noble Consort Qing looked at the dishes on the table and personally arranged for her son.""Today, you've grown up by another year. Zhenzhen is also a good child. You have to treat her well. Also, the dishes here are all your favorite.”
Xu Chang immediately pulled Tang Zhenzhen and said with a serious face,"Consort Mother, I will definitely treat Zhenzhen well.”
It was the first time Tang Zhenzhen was held by Xu Chang like this. She couldn't help but want to break free. However, when she saw Noble Consort Qing looking at them, she immediately didn't dare to move. Her hands were obedient and she didn't struggle anymore.
"Alright, I can rest assured about Consort Mother." After saying that, she seemed to heave a sigh of relief. Although many of the dishes on the table were Xu Chang's favorite, there were not many that she liked.
Seeing her favorite pine nut corn and sweet and sour pork ribs, Tang Zhenzhen seemed to have decided on these two dishes. She took a bite and then another bite.
However, when he saw Xu Chang sitting beside him, although he said that he liked to eat, he only ate one or two mouthfuls of each dish. Although he had the idea of eating without saying a word, he could not help but ask,"Xu Chang, isn't this all your favorite food? Why do you only eat one or two mouthfuls of each dish?”This made her very puzzled.
Xu Chang smiled and didn't say anything. Tang Zhenzhen thought that she couldn't speak because of her behavior at the table, so she didn't speak anymore.
On the other hand, Noble Consort Qing smiled, but she shook her head in her heart. She had been restraining Xu Chang according to the Emperor's standards.
Xu Chang only ate one or two mouthfuls of each dish because he could not let others know what he liked to eat to prevent people from poisoning him. Even his wife would not know what her pillow lover liked to eat.
Noble Consort Qing still didn't know what the Emperor liked. Every time, she seemed to have discovered that the Emperor liked that dish. The second time, it changed, making people confused.
"Chang 'er, this is a birthday present from Consort Mother. Open it and take a look.”After the meal, Noble Consort Qing took the gift from her side and wanted Xu Chang to open it.
Xu Chang nodded with a smile on his face and opened the box in his hand. It was indeed a sword that Tang Zhenzhen had guessed. The blade was incomparably beautiful and emitted a cold light.
Tang Zhenzhen had seen many good swords and loved them very much. Now, she couldn't take her eyes off them.
Noble Consort Qing looked at her and felt that only her love for swords was like a general's daughter.
Seeing her like this, Xu Chang and Noble Consort Qing smiled at each other and said nothing. After the palace maid cleared the table, she stood up and said,""It's getting late. Xu Chang, hurry up and send Zhenzhen back.”
Naturally, Xu Chang obeyed the order and left, but he did not let Tang Zhenzhen send her out directly. Instead, he brought her into his palace. Tang Zhenzhen stuttered,"What are you doing here?"
"What else can I do? Little fool, do you like this sword very much?”Xu Chang pulled her into the palace and said dotingly.
Tang Zhenzhen was unwilling to accept it. Not to mention that it was a gift from Xu Chang's mother, but because it was Xu Chang's birthday present, she would not accept it no matter what.
Xu Changsuo pushed the sword into her arms.""If you don't take it, I'll be angry.”
Tang Zhenzhen had no choice but to accept it. She was very grateful. She finally knew why Xu Chang was so gentle. It must be because of her mother.
She didn't think of Xu Mo at all. He didn't have any manners at all. She didn't expect that she would often think of Xu Mo now.
However, today was his birthday. She didn't give him a birthday present and even took his birthday present away. She felt a little guilty."Then let's go to the General's Estate. Today is your birthday, so I want to make something for you as a birthday present.”
Xu Chang naturally couldn't ask for more and immediately agreed. He needed the power of the General's Estate now. Although it was somewhat unreasonable to visit now, it was also indirectly binding the General's Estate to him.
When the two of them went out, they bumped into Xu Mo again. Xu Mo looked at Xu Chang and did not say anything. He pretended not to see him and walked away.
Tang Zhenzhen watched Xu Mo leave and felt her heart clench. She could feel the bitterness her mother had mentioned, but this was not Xu Chang.
Tang Zhenzhen could only lower her head and say nothing. Xu Chang stared at her and said nothing.
However, this was just an interlude. In a short while, they arrived at the General's Estate.
As soon as Tang Zhenzhen entered, a guard at the door whispered,""Miss, you came back so late today. The general is very angry.”
The corner of Tang Zhenzhen's mouth twitched slightly. She had also thought of this scene. Xu Chang walked over from behind and asked in a low voice,"Did something happen?"
She shook her head and went in. As soon as she went in, her father brought her mother in, and their faces were more or less worried.
However, before Tang Zhenzhen could say anything, she saw Xu Chang behind her. She immediately wanted to kneel down and bow, but Xu Chang helped her.
"General, there's no need to be so polite. Perhaps we'll be a family in the future."”
The general frowned and had a bad opinion in his heart. Among all the princes, he did not want to get involved with Prince Xu Chang the most. Although he looked gentle and quiet on the surface, he had been on the battlefield for a long time. How could he not tell who was sincere and who was fake?
He turned to look at his wife. The general's wife lowered her head and did not know what to say. She knew that her daughter liked someone, but she did not expect it to be Xu Chang. She thought it was Xu Mo. The Crown Prince was so good, why did she not like him?
"You must be joking. I wonder what business you have with the residence now?”The general said with a laugh.
Tang Zhenzhen didn't know what was going on. When she heard her father ask Xu Chang why he was here, she stood up and said,"Today is Xu Chang's birthday, so I invited him to our residence.”She tilted her head with a puzzled look on her face.
Tang Zhenzhen's words made the general really want to go up and give her a beating without caring about anything. Even if he couldn't do it under such circumstances, he couldn't say no, right?
He could only nod with a bitter smile and say,"Sure, sure. Please come in."”
Then, he welcomed Xu Chang in. When Xu Chang walked in, the general glared at Tang Zhenzhen fiercely, which made her feel very inexplicable.
At this time, the General's wife pulled Tang Zhenzhen aside and was a little confused.""Is this the person you like?”
Seeing her nod shyly, the General's wife seemed to want the sky to fall down. This Xu Chang appeared gentle and was very good at buying people's hearts, but the General's Estate still did not want to have anything to do with this prince.
The General's Household had a lot of power in the court, so they were in the middle. However, no matter how much of a warrior he was, he could see that the next candidate in the Emperor's heart was the Crown Prince, Xu Mo.
If Xu Chang wanted to marry Tang Zhenzhen because of General Manor, then General Manor really didn't know what to do. Their family had been loyal for generations and naturally wouldn't betray. It was just that this daughter was suffering.
Now, the General's wife only had one thought. She wanted to tell Tang Zhenzhen that Xu Mo was much more outstanding and capable than Xu Chang. Moreover, he would not be in so much danger and would not make her parents worry.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:1024201810:23AM
