Chapter 378 Being a lobbyist with evil intentions
"Indeed, this child's education really needs to be taken seriously. Don't worry, I will definitely arrange some great scholars with high moral character and learning to be teachers for our Fuzhen in the future, and let well-behaved and sensible children be Fuzhen's study companions. In this way, with good teachers and helpful friends as companions, Fuzhen will surely be extraordinary in the future."
The emperor thought that Fu Cha Zhixi said this today because she was worried about Fu Zhen's education, so he quickly spoke to comfort her.
"I am not worried about this. I just suddenly thought of Princess Wen Yi."
"The emperor has been busy with state affairs recently. I think he hasn't visited Princess Wen Yi for a long time. You don't know how much the princess has changed now."
After the emperor glanced at Fu Cha Zhixi's coquettish look, he turned the topic to Wen Yi.
"is it?"
The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi with interest. He had indeed not seen Wen Yi for a long time and did not know how Wen Yi was doing recently.
"I remember that when the princess first came to Concubine Jing's side, she was skinny and small. Although she was already one year old, she didn't look very blessed. Now, under Concubine Jing's careful care, the princess has changed a lot. She is plump and white and looks very cute."
"I wish Fuzhen was a little girl, so that I can dress the princess as well as Concubine Jing."
Fu Cha Zhixi spoke with a sigh.
"Nonsense, Wen Yi is well-behaved and cute, and our Fu Zhen is also well-behaved and lovable."
When the emperor heard Fu Cha Zhixi say this about his youngest son, he couldn't help but retort.
"Your Majesty, I naturally like our children, but Princess Wen Yi is indeed very cute. If Your Majesty has time, you can go and see the princess in person. I guarantee that Your Majesty will be amazed."
Fu Cha Zhixi emphasized the changes in Wen Yi before and after being taken care of by Concubine Jing, so that after seeing Wen Yi with his own eyes, the emperor would clearly realize that Concubine Jing indeed treated the princess very attentively.
In this case, even if Concubine Wan took the initiative to suggest that the princess return to Concubine Cao, the Emperor would definitely not directly agree to Zhen Huan's proposal based on his prejudice against Concubine Cao.
"Actually, there is something I don't know whether I should say or not."
Fu Cha Zhixi looked at the emperor hesitantly.
"There is nothing that cannot be said between you and me. Just say whatever you want to say."
The emperor looked at Fucha Zhixi and spoke.
"I think the Emperor has heard about Concubine Cao's report on Concubine Hua a few days ago. Concubine Jing is a little worried that Concubine Cao will use this as an excuse to take Princess Wen Yi back. When I took Fu Zhen to see Princess Wen Yi a few days ago, I happened to see Concubine Jing crying secretly, so I took the initiative to come here to help Concubine Jing get some peace of mind."
Fu Cha Zhixi has always been straightforward in front of the emperor, and has never concealed anything in front of him, so naturally she would not deliberately hide anything at this moment.
After all, she never thought that she was a smart person and could not show any temper in front of the emperor, the winner of the Nine Dragon Battle for the Succession. You have to know that the battle for the succession and the fight in the harem are not on the same level. Does anyone really think that the battle for the succession was won by arm wrestling or rock-paper-scissors?
"It seems that you are here to lobby for Concubine Jing."
The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi meaningfully and said.
"I'm not a lobbyist, it's just that I feel sorry for Sister Jingfei."
"To be honest, life in this palace is not that easy, especially without the emperor's favor, it is even more difficult."
"I am favored by the Emperor and have a child like Fuzhen, so I naturally don't feel tormented. But Sister Jingfei has served the Emperor for many years but has not been able to give birth to a child. How can she spend the rest of her lonely life in the long nights?"
Fu Cha Zhixi couldn't help but sigh and said with empathy.
"Can't I just go and see her more often?"
The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi's face full of emotion, and couldn't help but be touched by Xier's kindness again.
As expected, although Xier's appearance is not similar to Chunyuan at all, her character is exactly the same as Chunyuan's, both are kind and simple.
"It's good to have the emperor accompany me, but the emperor's company is limited after all. The emperor has to be busy with state affairs, but the concubines in the harem don't have much state affairs to be busy with."
"Having children accompany you and enjoying family happiness is naturally a rare joy in this palace."
Fu Cha Zhixi smiled faintly and looked at the emperor and said.
"But Wen Yi is Lady Cao's biological mother after all. It may not be a bad thing for Wen Yi to return to her biological mother."
The emperor did not agree directly, but asked this question with a slightly difficult tone.
I don’t know whether he was asking Fu Cha Zhixi or his past self.
As soon as these words were spoken, Fu Cha Zhixi immediately thought of the emperor's former adoptive mother, Empress Xiaoyi Ren. When he was young, the emperor lived very happily under the care of Empress Xiaoyi Ren, but later Empress Xiaoyi Ren passed away. The emperor returned to the current empress dowager but did not receive the love of his biological mother. Instead, he was greatly neglected and ignored.
Compared to this child who reminded her of the humiliation she had suffered in the past, she liked the fourteenth child whom she gave birth to when she was in favor more, so the emperor could only watch with jealousy as the fourteenth child got everything his biological mother had given him.
The emperor no longer had the care of his adoptive mother and the attention of his biological mother. Although he had a mother, his life was no different from that of a child without one.
"It is said that the grace of life is greater than heaven, but I do not think so."
Fu Cha Zhixi decided to act as a close sister to the confused Xiao Si and give some guidance to this child who had received complete maternal love.
"The care and concern that Concubine Jing has for Wen Yi can be clearly seen from the changes in Wen Yi, while the princess often fell ill when she was with Concubine Cao. I think it is self-evident who treats the princess more attentively."
"What's more, Princess Wen Yi has been brought up by Concubine Jing. She calls her mother Concubine Jing. In Wen Yi's heart, Concubine Jing is her real mother. It is really too difficult for her to accept that her mother is not her real mother at such a young age."
Fu Cha Zhixi couldn't help but look at the emperor and spoke.
"Yes, who can accept that their mother is not their mother?"
The emperor couldn't help but think of how hard it was for him to accept when he accidentally learned that Empress Xiaoyi Ren was not his biological mother.
He didn't want his own flesh and blood to suffer the same pain again, which could be considered as his fatherly love for Wen Yi.
"Besides, I don't like Concubine Cao. I always think she has bad intentions, so I don't want Wen Yi to live with such a woman. I'm worried that she will teach Wen Yi bad things."
Fucha Zhixi pursed her lips and said to the emperor quite bluntly.
