Chapter 547 Let the Mother Come Back
The Emperor patted Shang Zhanchen with an approving look. At first, he thought Chen'er was too emotional, as there was only the Crown Princess in the palace.
I thought Chen'er should take in more concubines, have more children, and prosper the royal family. Now it seems that he was wrong.
Even his favorite Concubine Lan betrayed him. One can imagine that the other concubines felt a little sad.
There are so many women in his harem, but not one of them is sincere to him. Now even the queen has given up on him.
On the other hand, Chen'er and his wife still have such a good relationship, which is really enviable.
Looking at his father's lonely back, Shang Zhanchen frowned and wanted to accompany his father to the Imperial Garden.
But he knew it would be of no use and would not relieve him of the knot in his heart, so after hesitating for a moment, he went straight back to the palace.
As soon as I entered the yard, I heard my mother's happy laughter.
"You two little cats are going to get so dirty."
The queen took a handkerchief and wiped the two little ones' faces, smiling dotingly.
A one-year-old child is so naughty. If he were a little older, he would definitely go to the roof.
"Hehe..." The two little guys were very happy when being stared at by the Royal Grandmother.
When I looked up, I saw my father coming back, rushing over with his short legs.
"Father!"
Looking at his two darlings covered in mud, Shang Zhanchen stepped back in disgust.
"Where did you go shopping again?"
Since he turned one year old, there has not been a single peaceful day. Every day he has to be made like a clay monkey.
"Father, look at what my brother and I made. Does it look good?" Shang Rou walked over with her short legs and carried her masterpiece over.
When Shang Jiao saw it, he also ran over and took back his own work. Looking at the weird clay figures made by his son and daughter, Shang Zhanchen was full of disgust.
"what is this?"
"Father, this is the Royal Grandmother."
"This is my mother, can't you see that?" The two little guys happily hugged the clay statues in their hands.
Even the Empress Dowager said that they looked very similar, but my father didn’t realize it.
“…”Shang Zhanchen’s mouth twitched.
He doesn't look like a human at all, not even like an animal. Looking at my father, he is frowning and looks very unhappy.
Shang Jiao patted his big hands filially.
"Don't be sad, father. My sister and I will make one for you right away."
The father must be unhappy because he is not here.
"Well, father, this time we will make you the biggest one." Shang Rou also nodded in agreement.
My father is the tallest and the biggest, so the one he makes should be the biggest.
"No need. Father knows that Jiao'er and Rou'er are filial, but there's no need to make this clay figurine. Go wash it quickly."
It’s better not to bother talking at this level. The two little guys wanted to say something else, but they were coaxed and deceived by Jiang Zuo and Jiang You.
Seeing Chen'er's frown, the queen looked at him.
"Chen'er, what's wrong with you?"
Could it be that the affairs of the court have troubled him?
"Um...Mother, why don't you go visit Father when you have time?"
The incident involving Concubine Lan has made my father too embarrassed to see my mother. If my mother doesn't take the initiative to see my father, I'm afraid my father will never come until he dies.
Now the emperor is depressed all day long, which is not a good thing to continue in the long run, so I thought of discussing it with the queen mother and asking her to go and see the emperor.
Letting his father know that his mother still cared about him would help to ease his worries. However, as soon as he said this, he was rejected by the queen.
"No." The queen refused bluntly.
Now she has adapted to her current life and feels quite happy. She really doesn't want to go back to the sad and desperate days of the past.
Afraid that Chen'er would say something else, he added another sentence.
"Chen'er, your mother is very happy now, you should know that."
The meaning is very clear. If you don't want to make her unhappy, don't bring it up.
Shang Zhanchen was not surprised as he had long guessed that his mother would have this kind of reaction.
"I know, but Father has not been doing well these days. I am afraid something bad has happened to him."
"That's his fate." The queen still looked determined.
Now she just wants to live her own life, do what she should do, and doesn't want to care about anything else.
"Having said that, I will suffer as well." Shang Zhanchen sighed in a pretentious manner.
"Are you going to suffer with me?" The queen looked at Shang Zhanchen and obviously took it seriously.
"Well, Father has been in a bad mood recently and has no interest in government affairs. He has pushed all matters to his son to handle.
These past two days, I have felt overwhelmed and a little overwhelmed. "
After saying that, he sighed again, as if he was very tired.
"Chen'er, you are the crown prince and the future emperor. You will have to take over these matters sooner or later." The queen sighed.
Although he felt sorry for Chen'er, as the crown prince and the future new emperor of Da Shang, he would have to take over these matters sooner or later.
“That’s true, but Father has given me so many things at once that I am a bit overwhelmed.
I haven’t had much of an appetite in the past two days, and even my health isn’t as good as before.”
"So serious?" The queen frowned.
Chen'er has always been strong, but now that he says this, it seems that the burden is indeed not light.
Shang Zhanchen was delighted to see that his mother had listened to him.
"Well, not only do I have to deal with the affairs of the court, I also have to take care of my father. I have never felt so exhausted."
“……”The queen said nothing.
But he did listen to it. Chen'er had to deal with court affairs every day and also had to take care of the emperor. It was really difficult for him.
The next day, Shang Zhanchen and the emperor were reviewing memorials in the imperial study when two little heads appeared at the door.
"Royal grandfather, hehehe..."
"Jiao'er! Rou'er! Come to your grandfather quickly!" The emperor excitedly put down the brush in his hand.
He waved to the two little ones. Ever since what happened last time, he didn't dare to face the Queen and hadn't visited his grandson and granddaughter.
I really miss him so much!
"Grandfather!" The two little ones happily rushed to the emperor and started rocking him by his arms.
"Grandfather, why didn't you come to see us?"
In the past, my great grandfather often visited them and my great grandmother, but it seemed like he hadn’t visited them for a long time.
"The Emperor is busy and has no time. Why didn't you come to see him?" The emperor pouted in dissatisfaction.
These two heartless people, it's not easy for me to go and see them, and they don't even say they're coming to see me.
Just as he was thinking about it, the queen walked in from outside.
"I have met the emperor."
"The Queen is here!" The Emperor's eyes lit up and he quickly looked at Eunuch An.
"Bring a chair for the Queen!"
"Yes." Eunuch An's face lit up with joy. He had someone bring a chair and asked the queen to sit down.
But he didn't say anything else, mainly because he felt there was nothing much to say. However, this made the emperor very happy.
After the incident with Concubine Lan, I always felt lonely, as if I was alone.
Now his son, grandchildren and daughter-in-law are all here, making him feel at home again.
Seeing his father's smile, Shang Zhanchen curled the corners of his mouth.
"..."
Let mother be right later!
