Chapter 473 Auspicious Signs Appear
Of course, this is just their deep thought.
After all, His Majesty just said it himself that the Fourth Prince’s name was taken from “Since God blesses him, everything will be auspicious,” implying that God helps those who help themselves.
The mind of an emperor is hard to predict. No one knows whether His Majesty's expectation for the Fourth Prince is just to encourage him to constantly strive for self-improvement, without the final meaning.
But... everyone could feel His Majesty's love for the Fourth Prince.
A prince who is favored by the emperor is superior to other princes.
Many royal relatives looked at each other and saw the dark color in each other's eyes.
It seems that I cannot offend the virtuous concubine in the future and I have to spend more time with the Shen family.
Shen Zhinian didn't think so, but Nangong Xuanyu had already determined in his heart that the Fourth Prince would be the future Crown Prince.
Because the inheritance of the country involves the foundation of the Great Zhou for hundreds of years and the future of countless common people. To appoint a crown prince, many aspects need to be considered, and the qualifications of the prince must also be considered.
Ah Xu is not the eldest son nor the legitimate heir yet, so the emperor will not make a hasty decision on such an important matter.
But no matter what, it is an indisputable fact that the Fourth Prince is loved by the emperor.
He has been favored by his father since birth, so his future life will be much smoother than that of other princes.
It seems that ever since her pregnancy was made public, she has been intentionally or unintentionally cultivating the relationship between Nangong Xuanyu and the child, and the effect has been quite good.
Shen Zhinian's lips curled up slightly, and he was quite satisfied with Ah Xu's name.
I am also glad that Nangong Xuanyu's preference for A Xu is just right, not to the point of obsession, and he gave him names like "Nangong Chengqian", "Nangong Chengxi", "Nangong Chengzuo", "Nangong Junlin", etc., which carry obvious meanings.
Otherwise, the full moon banquet might explode...
While Ah Xu is still in his infancy, he will become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of countless people. The difficulty of growing up safely will increase countless times compared to now...
Before Concubine De could recover from the cramping pain in her heart, another more intense pain came!
Nangong Chengyou? !
Is it blessing from heaven and a smooth life?
With the help of God, I hope I will have a better future...
The name of the Third Prince comes from "as if spring is warm and the scenery is bright", which simply means the spring breeze is warm and the sun is bright. Compared with the Fourth Prince, he is not even a little bit inferior!
Defei's hands were trembling slightly.
At the same time, your Majesty's son, why is your Majesty so partial? !
Just because the third prince is not as good-looking as the fourth prince?
But what can such a young child see?
I'm afraid it's more because...she is not as favored as Concubine Xian!
The pain in her heart became more and more severe, and Concubine De could only lean back on the chair to relieve it.
She couldn't embarrass the Third Prince in such an occasion. Otherwise, everyone would think that the Third Prince was not as valued by His Majesty as the Fourth Prince, which would make her feel heartbroken.
What people fear most is comparison.
Although they are both princes, the fair and clean-looking Fourth Prince is much more likable than the weird-looking Third Prince.
For a moment, countless people surrounded Shen Zhinian and the Fourth Prince and flattered them.
The atmosphere on Concubine De's side suddenly became quiet.
Even Imperial Concubine Liu... after meeting the Fourth Prince, could no longer feel any affection for the Third Prince.
Unfortunately, the third prince is easy to get, but the fourth prince is difficult to deal with.
Besides, when she ascends to the throne, she will need a legitimate eldest son. The fourth prince doesn't have the word "eldest" in his title, so what's the point of just being cute?
Although today is the Fourth Prince’s full moon banquet, Nangong Xuanyu did not ignore the other children.
The eldest princess was lively and cheerful, well-educated and well-mannered. She talked to her father for a while, then looked at her younger brother and then her younger sister, her big eyes full of love.
From now on she will have two younger brothers and a younger sister, how wonderful! ! !
Empress De once said that now that there was a second princess in the palace, no one would like her anymore. This is not true at all.
When she went to see the second imperial sister, Empress Xue said that when the second imperial sister grew up, she would stay by her side all day and call her "imperial sister".
The eldest princess felt extremely happy just thinking about it!
Mother is right, Empress De is a bad person. She only plays with the third brother and ignores Empress De. Humph!
Looking at the eldest princess flying around the hall like a little butterfly, the emperor had a smile in his eyes.
What he was most satisfied with about the imperial concubine was that she taught Yun'er so well.
Just for this reason, he was willing to tolerate many of the imperial concubine's shortcomings.
Because of the Second Princess, Nangong Xuanyu has been to the Yanxi Palace quite a few times recently. Naturally, he can see that Concubine Xue is very concerned about this child.
Even the imperial physician said that if the second princess could maintain her current physical condition and survive the crisis until she was one year old, there should be no problem.
If it were someone else, they might not be able to take such good care of the second princess.
Nangong Xuanyu felt more and more that his decision to hand over the second princess to Concubine Xue for upbringing was the right one.
Seeing the emperor talking to Concubine Xue, Ruoli curled her lips.
It seems that her guess was correct. Concubine Xue just wanted to use the Second Princess to lure His Majesty to visit her palace more often.
If the Second Princess had been raised by Concubine Liang, and His Majesty had visited Changchun Palace more frequently, perhaps Concubine Liang would have been pregnant with the royal heir long ago.
Concubine Liang did not show any dissatisfaction with this, and there was always a gentle smile in her eyes.
Nangong Xuanyu looked at the third prince again.
In the minds of men, especially emperors, the eldest son and the legitimate son are born different. When the third prince was just born, Nangong Xuanyu also had high hopes for him.
But his appearance is somewhat different from that of ordinary people, and his development is much slower than that of ordinary babies.
All the doctors in the Imperial Hospital had treated the Third Prince, but they all said they had never seen such a case before. Apart from his strange appearance and slow growth, no other problems were found with the Third Prince.
Some babies do grow slower than other children, but this does not affect them much when they grow up.
There were many rumors in the palace, saying that when Concubine De was pregnant with the third prince, she pretended to be crazy and hid in Gyeongbokgung Palace, where she had poor food and accommodation. As a result, the third prince did not grow well during his fetal period, and this is what happened when he was born.
Thinking of this, Nangong Xuanyu couldn't help but become even more dissatisfied with Concubine De.
If it is really because of her behavior that the royal heir is affected, she will definitely be punished.
But Concubine De only had a few months to live, and considering that she had given birth to two princes for him, the emperor did not make things difficult for a dying person.
The Empress Dowager Liu, who was sitting at the top, naturally knew about the rumors in the palace. Especially compared with the Fourth Prince, the Third Prince's appearance seemed even more strange.
But Empress Dowager Liu didn't care.
She was actually happy to see the third prince's slow development.
Because after a hundred years of the emperor's death, all the Duke Dingguo's Mansion needs is a puppet.
Why would a puppet emperor need to be so smart?
The Third Prince was tailor-made for Duke Dingguo's Mansion!
As all the procedures were completed, the Fourth Prince's full moon banquet was coming to an end.
Who knew that at this moment, a young eunuch suddenly ran in with a look of joy on his face: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, auspicious signs!!! An auspicious sign has appeared!!!"
