On the first day of the Lunar New Year, King Yu and his wife brought the prince into the palace to congratulate him.
Rong Zheng got up at the right time, but no one came to urge her.
Zi Su chose a gorgeous outfit for Rong Zheng and wore a red coral headband.
She looked beaming with joy.
Rong Zheng rewarded each of the maids serving in the room with two taels of silver and a purse containing a pair of gold and silver coins.
There was nothing to do today, so she gave the maids a day off.
Mu Xuan came back in the morning and saw Rong Zheng talking to the Crown Princess, but did not disturb them.
Rong Zheng gave Ren Ge'er a jade pendant.
After spending a few days together, Ren Ge'er was not as timid as before.
Sometimes he would hold Rong Zheng's hand and act coquettishly.
Rongzheng was in awe when she saw a child, she would hug her and kiss her little face.
The Crown Princess smiled and said, "It seems like she is quite pestering you."
"Not all children are like this.
As long as you take the initiative to get close to her, she will not refuse.
When I looked at his chubby face and big watery eyes, my heart immediately softened."
Rongzheng likes well-behaved and beautiful children.
She always feels that they are soft and glutinous, just like little glutinous rice dumplings.
When people see it, they can't help but want to hold it in their arms and take good care of it.
When the imperial concubine saw that Mu Xuan was back, she couldn't stay too shameless, so she took her son and stood up to say goodbye.
When Mu Xuan saw the mother and son leaving, she immediately came over and said to Rong Zheng, "Come on, I'll take you out for a walk."
Rong Zheng has been looking forward to visiting the capital for a long time.
Mu Xuan said that the car was ready, Rong Zheng went back to her room, changed into some light clothes, and went shopping with Mu Xuan.
Sitting in the not-so-conspicuous flat-top car, Rong Zheng curiously lifted a corner of the curtain and took a look outside.
There were many shops on the wide but not very flat street.
There are many high-rise shops, two-story ones.
Three floors.
The decoration is more gorgeous than the shops nearby.
Hanging strings of red lanterns added a festive touch.
It's just the first day of the Lunar New Year, so most of the shops are not open.
But the crowd on the street was bustling and it didn't seem deserted.
When the car entered a busy street, it had to stop because there were too many people.
Mu Xuan and Rong Zheng had no choice but to get out of the car and walk.
Mu Xuan held Rong Zheng's hand tightly along the way, for fear that she would get separated.
There are few shops open, but there are many vendors.
Especially those selling snacks.
Selling sideshows.
There are also arenas with various moves.
It’s so diverse that it’s hard to take your eyes away.
Mu Xuan had never gone shopping like this with anyone, let alone a woman beside him.
I suddenly felt very interesting and pulled Rong Zheng from the street to the end of the street.
I chose a few delicious snacks at the food stall, which are not common in Bianliang.
I bought two glass hairpins and a pair of silver bells for Rong Zheng at a jewelry stall.
A foot of red headband and a pair of small porcelain dolls.
They are all worthless.
But it's a very interesting little thing.

I spent more than a hundred yuan to choose a full cloth bag for Rong Zheng.
Later, when she walked to a place selling kites, Mu Xuan looked at the colorful kites.
I felt like I was back when I was a child.
I paused for a while and decisively chose a swallow.
When the boss takes the kite down.
He handed it to Rong Zheng and said with a smile, "This one is here to go shopping with my niece, right?"
Mu Xuan's face was ashen at that time.
I thought to myself, am I that old?
Rong Zheng was angry and amused when she heard this, but she tried her best to hold it back.
However, the kite-selling proprietress had good eyesight and saw Mu Xuan holding Rong Zheng's hand.
Then she realized it and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, our old man can't speak.
This lovely wife beside the young master looks really good."
They are good-looking.
The young master is also good-looking.
They are a match made in heaven.”
With these two flattering words, Mu Xuan's face looked better, and she paid the money happily.
He grabbed Rong Zheng and left.
Both of them had gone a little far.
Mu Xuan also heard the man say: "The man is obviously much older, and the woman is still a little girl.
Why are they just a couple?"
The woman continued: "Didn't you see that the two of them were holding hands and couldn't break them apart?
But the woman looks smaller.
Is she a step-sister?"
Mu Xuan’s face is full of black lines, you are the step-in-law and your whole family is the step-in-law.
Before the woman could finish listening to her words, she heard her say again: "But that young man is really rare and handsome, and he is dressed in rich and beautiful clothes.
He has the demeanor of a noble young man at first glance.
It really makes people unable to take their eyes away." " The man stopped doing it and began to argue with the woman: "You are just staring at this young master, you are not ashamed.
Do you think this young master still likes you?"
"So what if I take a second look?"
The couple actually quarreled over this.
It turns out that this is life in the marketplace.
Mu Xuan felt dumbfounded and left with Rong Zheng.
The crowd was so crowded that they almost got separated several times.
Until we walked out of this long street.
Rongzheng felt a little sore in her legs and didn't have much strength.
The two got in the car again and headed all the way to a popular ancient temple in the suburbs.
"I must ask for a signature today."
Mu Xuan smiled and asked, "What do you want?"
Rong Zheng said: "Of course I am praying for your peace."
Mu Xuan was a little surprised.
He thought Rong Zheng would ask for a child.
To be honest, he is really not ready to be a father now.
Firstly, he is about to face a separation of unknown length.
Secondly, Rongzheng is not yet fifteen years old and his body bones have not fully grown yet.
It is difficult to have a child at such a young age.

The further you go outside the city, the sparsely populated it becomes.
The suburbs of the capital are a different scene.
They are not like the endless wilderness like Bianliang.
The mountains here are undulating, winding like giant dragons.
The car can only go to the bottom of the mountain, and they have to climb up the stone steps for the rest of the way.
"Can you still walk?
If you can't, how about I carry you up?"
Rong Zheng's face suddenly turned red and she said coquettishly, "It's in broad daylight and I don't know how to be ashamed."
"Why is it that I can't carry my own daughter-in-law?
She wasn't stolen or robbed.
She was married upright, who dares to say anything more?"
Rongzheng walked straight ahead, indicating that she still had enough physical strength to keep up.
When he climbed halfway up the mountain, Rongzheng stopped and rested for a while before continuing to climb up.
As expected, the place is very popular and full of tourists.
The surging crowd was comparable to that of the lively street.
The two of them finally squeezed in and burned incense.
For the first time in front of the Bodhisattva, Rongzheng did not ask gods and Buddhas to bless her children in her previous life, but wholeheartedly prayed for peace for Mu Xuan.
Later, the two of them went to ask for a lottery ticket, which was the one on the middle branch.
Rong Zheng smiled when he looked at the word "中上".
I'm going to get my signature signed.
Mu Xuan took it for a look.
He frowned and said, "What are you going to do with that wasted money?
Besides, there are so many people lined up and we don't know when it will be our turn."
"But I still don't quite understand what it says above."
Mu Xuan disagreed: "It's a good thing after all.
You don't have to take it too seriously.
Just believe half of the words on these lots."
He took the lot out of Rong Zheng's hand, threw it into the lot tube, pulled Rong Zheng and left.
An old monk guarding the lottery shop opened his eyes and looked at Mu Xuan who was leaving, and shook his head slightly.
Shopping for a long time.
When Rong Zheng went back, she was so tired that her back and legs ached.
Mu Xuan said to her, "Lie down.
I'll rub it for you."
How dare Rong Zheng bother him?
She waved her hand and said, "No need, there are maids."
"Are the maids better than me?"
Mu Xuan insisted on giving Rong Zheng a massage.
Over the years, he has also become proficient in medical science.
It's not too tricky to help with massage or anything like that.
Rongzheng couldn't resist him, so she had to obey him.
Mu Xuan asked her to take off her outer coat and wear only the inner coat, and covered it with a quilt.
Knead her carefully.
The strength and other things were actually quite well controlled.
Just when Rong Zheng was about to praise him like this, Mu Xuan suddenly tightened his grip.
She gritted her teeth and cried out in pain: "Easy, please be gentle."

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you.
I know that.
It's too gentle and it won't be effective.
Just bear with it."
Rongzheng felt like she was about to shed tears and had to cry out in pain again.
Qiu Ci, who was standing guard outside, blushed as she listened to the movement in the inner room.
Anyway, I have nothing to do and I am about to go out.
Ruyi walked in and asked, "Is grandma in there?
I have something to ask her."
Then he opened the curtain and went in.
Qiu Ci hurriedly grabbed Ruyi's arm and shook her head at her.
Qiu Ci is unclear.
She wanted to ask if she wasn't inside.
At this moment, she heard several bursts of laughter coming from inside.
Then Mu Xuan was heard asking: "You are so ticklish, then I will tickle you again."
"Don't.
I'm afraid of pain and tickling, so please be gentle.
I don't know how to show mercy at all."
"Who says I don't understand?"
The voices inside are getting softer and softer.
Ruyi also blushed and left the room with Qiu Ci.
Two girls stood under the eaves talking.
Ruyi's face was still hot, and He Qiuci said: "Our uncle and grandma have a really good relationship."
Qiu Ci also blushed and nodded.
But I thought in my heart, no matter how good the relationship is, it cannot be lost in broad daylight.
Rong Zheng lay comfortably on the bed, her muscles and bones feeling comfortable.
The pain in my body seemed to be getting better.
She couldn't help but tease: "You really have a lot of tricks up your sleeve."
"That's it, don't you see who I am."
Rong Zheng looked at the lightness in his eyebrows and thought to herself that the man in front of her seemed to have changed a lot since they first met her, making people feel more human.
It turns out that he is not as cold as ice and rejects people thousands of miles away.
He knows both cold and hot, and is very considerate.
A smile can often be seen on his face, and Rong Zheng is very pleased with his change.
"You're tired, lie down for a while.
Get up after eating."
She was quite tired, so Rong Zheng turned over and closed her eyes to sleep.
Mu Xuan walked out, just as Pingkang came and reported to him: "Uncle, the prince has invited me to come over."
Mu Xuan nodded and said, "I understand."
Then she told the maid under the eaves: "Grandma is sleeping, please watch her carefully.
If you have enough time, let her sleep a little longer."
Ruyi and Qiu Ci both blushed and responded in unison.
Mu Xuan followed Pingkang out of the courtyard and went to Prince Yu's study.
The two doors of King Yu's study were wide open.
He walked into the courtyard and saw the young eunuchs waiting under the eaves.
There were twice as many people as usual.

Is there any guest in Xindao?
He came to visit on the first day of the new year, and I don’t know who it is.
He strolled across the threshold, and sure enough, he saw another person wearing the same clothes as his father in the room.
He is about thirty years old, with a fair face, a mustache, and a black mole on the corner of his eyebrow.
This person is Mu Lian, King of Wu.
Mu Xuan bowed to King Wu in a polite manner.
King Wu smiled heartily and said, "Uncle Wang's eldest son is already so old."
King Yu smiled and said: "He is not much younger than you."
King Wu smiled and nodded and said: "What a handsome boy.
What does Pan An look like?
If he was born in Wei and Jin, he would not dare to go out easily."
"Why?"
King Yu didn't understand for a while.
"You should have thrown the fruit car long ago."
King Yu and King Wu both laughed.
Mu Xuan stood there silently, looking very calm.
King Wu praised again: "You are really a dragon and a phoenix among men."
Mu Xuan suddenly remembered what Rong Zheng had said to him.
Although he had been doubtful until now, if it was true as Rong Zheng said that the King of Wu would finally capture the treasure, then the King of Wu would be really lucky.
It's great.
How could he survive the death of the prince and the emperor's grandson?
After a while, Mu Jing also came.
King Yu was a little unhappy when he saw that Mu Jing was late, but because it was the first day of the new year, he still didn't ask what Mu Jing was doing.
Mu Jing seemed to be very familiar with King Wu.
When the two met, they were not polite at all and started talking directly.
This King of Wu has no airs at all.
He is very cheerful and seems to attach great importance to friendship.
Rong Zheng's words reminded him again that after King Wu ascended the throne, he vigorously liquidated the prince's old ministers, but he was not as easy-going as he seemed on the surface.
King Wu sat there for nearly an hour, and King Yu specially invited him to eat.
He didn't refuse at all.
The heroic King Yu and the Crown Prince drank several drinks.
King Wu wanted to drink with Mu Xuan, but Mu Xuan waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, I'm not good at drinking."
King Wu asked Mu Jing again: "I heard that he grew up in a temple."
Mu Jing nodded.
King Wu smiled and said: "You just grew up in the temple.
You are not a monk.
Do you still have to be a vegetarian and abide by the rules?"
Mu Xuan said: "I have been accustomed to these habits for a long time, and I can't change them in a while."
King Wu laughed loudly: "If you can't change your mind, I heard that you will go to the northwest camp in the future.
Don't you dare to fight with the enemy with a sword on the battlefield?"
King Wu also knew that he was going to the northwest camp.
It must have been his father who said so.
Mu Xuan glanced at Prince Yu.
King Yu drank wine with a calm expression.
King Wu didn't leave until the second watch.

After King Wu left, King Yu stayed with Mu Xuan to talk to him.
"Does the prince intend to introduce me to King Wu?"
King Yu smiled and nodded: "You can tell it at a glance.
There is a general who King Wu knows at the northwest camp.
If he goes to say hello, it will be easier for you to go there."
Mu Xuan was a little displeased: "My son is not here to enjoy happiness, so it doesn't matter if he suffers a little.
I'm afraid my son won't be able to bear your greetings like this."
"You kid is too honest.
You don't know what kind of world is outside.
Go and have a good time and you won't blame me like this.
Everything I do is for your own good.
Don't be ignorant. ."
King Yu felt that the eldest son was still immature and his thoughts were too idealistic
