Chapter 358
Mother’s Family
After leaving Ciren Palace, Jiang Changning put away his angry look, sat in the phoenix chariot, and gently rubbed his forehead.
The Queen Mother is so troubled because she is too busy and needs to find something for the Queen Mother to do.
Before Jiang Changning could figure out how to distract the Queen Mother, something happened to the Yan family. Gangsters broke into the Yan family mansion and stole property.
The servants were alerted, and they called for help and surrounded them. The gangsters panicked, broke into the main courtyard, and took Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan hostage.
The Yan Family Nursing Home had no choice but to let the gangsters leave.
The gangsters were cunning and broke their promises. After escaping, they did not release Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan.
The government received the report and sent officers to search and rescue, but found nothing.
This happened more than a month ago. What the situation is now, the journey is far away, so I don’t know yet.
The Queen Mother was extremely anxious, "What's the big deal if we lose some property? How can we not protect our master?"
Jiang Changning sat quietly, and she had a pair of ears to listen to the Empress Dowager's complaints. With Emperor Xuanzhi here, he would comfort his mother and there was no need for her to talk too much.
"How many more years have to wait!" Xiaobai frowned.
Jiang Changning called: "Son."
Learning from books is always shallow. If you want to know everything, you have to practice it.
When Xiao Qian was born, the prince learned how to hold a baby. He held his sister in a decent manner and teased her by licking his tongue and saying, "Mother, mother, my sister is laughing."
"No, you are too young. When you are a few years older and your father sends you an errand, you can go out." The prince rejected them.
Xiaoqian stood on the other side, "Sister, sister, look at me, I am your third brother, your best and best third brother."
"Blessed by Bodhisattva." The Queen Mother clasped her hands together, "It would be great if I could see it with my own eyes, and I would feel relieved."
There was still a banquet in the palace, and officials of third rank and above attended with their families.
Emperor Xuanzhi pondered for a moment and said: "Then my son will reward you with more gold and silver, so that they can take care of the hospital more."
Emperor Xuanzhi thought for a while and said, "Okay, let the prince accompany you back."
"The eunuch beside the prince." Banqin replied.
"Don't worry, mother, my son has sent troops to encircle and suppress these bandits. He will definitely find out the whereabouts of his uncle and aunt." Emperor Xuanzhi could not ensure that the Yan family and his wife could return home safely.
Returning to Qiyuan Palace, as soon as he entered the east side hall, Emperor Xuanzhi stretched out his arms and held the person in his arms, "Do you want to go with me?"
When they learned that the prince was going to escort the queen mother back to the Yan family, Xiaobai and Xiaoqian also wanted to go with them. "Brother prince, please take me and my little brother with you. We are very obedient."
"The year after next, I will take you back to Hangzhou." Emperor Xuanzhi promised.
"Okay." Jiang Changning smiled, the road to Hangzhou is much easier than going to Sichuan Province.
Jiang Changning raised his eyebrows and had no objection. The prince had reached the age where he could do things independently. It was time to let him go out for a walk. He was trapped in this palace and his knowledge was short.
The days flew by and it was New Year's Eve.
"Prince, please come over." Banqin said.
Jiang Changning raised his head and glanced at the Queen Mother. The rich and powerful people did not return home, just like walking at night in brocade clothes. However, the Queen Mother went out with too much fanfare, and she was afraid that Emperor Xuanzhi would not agree.
The little princess, who was only one month old, was awake now. She was lying in the cradle, her eyes wide open, and she didn't know what she was looking at.
"What does it matter if the journey is long? There is a carriage. When my aunt sent someone to pick me up in Beijing, I was fine on the road. My father also said that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Along the way, you can increase your knowledge and broaden your horizons.
Enriching your horizons." The more the Queen Mother talked about it, the more she felt that she should go back to her parents' home.
"Who rescued the person?" Jiang Changning asked.
There are no high-speed trains, no planes, not even cars. You go there in a horse-drawn carriage and run on that not-so-flat road. Do you want to run her over to death?
Moreover, when the Queen Mother returns to her parents’ home, she has to go back and forth
For a few months, she could be quiet for a few months, so that the Queen Mother would not have anything to do, so he looked at her with a reproachful look as if she had delayed the royal family's development.
"Mom, please relax, my uncle and aunt are both blessed people and will bring good luck to people and heaven." Emperor Xuanzhi said with a smile.
"Your Majesty has wronged you, and I have no intention of following him." Jiang Changning really didn't want to follow him.
This is indispensable without the support of the prince. Only when the prince manipulates his sister can little Xuanyi live a casual life.
Jiang Changning originally thought that this palace banquet would go by peacefully like previous years. Who would have thought that in the middle of the banquet, Banqin quietly came to report: "Your Majesty, the daughter of the left minister of the Ministry of Industry has fallen into the water."
Of course, Jiang Changning will not teach her daughter to be overbearing and unreasonable. She will make her daughter respect her brother.
The one-month-old baby smiled unconsciously. It was not the prince who made her laugh, but Jiang Changning said with a smile: "She likes her eldest brother. She is happy to know that he is holding her."
The Queen Mother wanted to return to her parents' home, but she had not returned to her parents' home for decades after she married into the prince's palace.
"Sister, my second brother is here to see you. Are you good? Did you drink milk well today?" Xiaobai sat on the cradle and asked seriously, as if his sister could really answer him.
Emperor Xuanzhi spoke a few words with the Queen Mother, comforted the Queen Mother, and left with Jiang Changning.
The prince coughed lightly, "Sister, I am the eldest brother."
"Be patient." The prince patted his two younger brothers on the shoulders, "Let's go and see our sister."
"My sister is still young and doesn't know people yet. When she gets older, she will call her eldest brother, second brother, and third brother." Jiang Changning picked up his daughter and handed it to the prince, "Let the eldest brother hug her first."
The Queen Mother and the Prince are traveling and cannot leave immediately. What's more, it is already October and the weather is freezing, so it is not appropriate to set off.
"Your uncle and your aunt must have suffered a serious crime this time." The Queen Mother sighed sadly.
"This goes against the ancestral system and cannot be done." The Queen Mother rejected his proposal.
"You have to go there." Jiang Changning made a casual excuse, left the table, and went to the side hall.
She has read the poem "The Road to Shu is Difficult, It's Difficult to Climb to the Sky".
"Okay." The Queen Mother was really happy.
The prince has servants and guards around him. Not to mention it is a cold winter, even in summer, if he sees someone falling into the water, he will not let the prince personally rescue him.
Jiang Changning frowned. This was a plot to trick the prince. The family of the left minister of the Ministry of Industry was really ambitious!
Is it just that the prince is so calculating?
"That's enough." The Queen Mother agreed.
"Mother, the journey is too long. You have never traveled like this before and you cannot bear it." Emperor Xuanzhi advised.
"When my uncle and aunt are found, my son will reward them with a team of guards. Does the queen think it is feasible?" Emperor Xuanzhi asked.
Four children were born to one mother. Jiang Changning hoped that they could get closer, and she hoped that little Xuanyi would not be trapped in the palace like her and could fly out like a bird.
From a distance, Jiang Changning saw the prince standing at the entrance of the palace, followed by several servants.
"Queen Mother." The prince greeted her.
"Have you ever been scared?" Jiang Changning asked with concern.
"The Queen touches her ears." The prince bent down and said.
Jiang Changning smiled and reached out to touch the prince's ears, "Touch the ears, it won't scare you."
