Chapter 396 Sisterhood Breaks Down
"Ama, Ama..."
A clear baby voice suddenly came, instantly breaking the original quiet atmosphere of the study.
At this time, Daiyu was holding a bowl of steaming medicine soup, and then she gently handed the spoon to the prince's mouth and fed him the medicine spoon by spoon.
At first, the prince said that he had already woken up and there was no need for Daiyu to be so cautious.
However, Daiyu refused to let him drink it himself no matter what.
At this time, a small figure like a happy little deer came in, jumping and following Jiaorou.
It was Hongxuan, who ran towards the prince quickly with his chubby legs, completely ignoring the gentle and anxious calls behind him:
"Xuan'er, run slower. Let your father finish the medicine first..."
However, how could Hongxuan listen to these words?
During this period of time, the eldest wife was not at home, and he came to pay his respects to the prince every day. He had forgotten how much time had passed, and the prince was still in a coma.
Hearing that his father had finally woken up today, he was so excited that he could hardly contain himself and rushed to the prince's bedside.
As soon as the prince saw Hongxuan appear in front of him, he became energetic and his eyes were full of loving smiles.
With the appearance of Hongxuan, the things that the eldest wife had done suddenly appeared in the prince's mind.
The child is innocent. After all, this is the prince’s first child!
He quickly struggled to sit up from the bed. Seeing this, Daiyu quickly reached out to support the prince and helped him sit firmly on the bed.
Then, the prince stretched out his arms and hugged Hongxuan tightly in his arms.
Hongxuan was like a well-behaved little kitten, nestling softly in the prince's warm embrace.
After a while, Hongxuan quickly used her little hands to grope out a few wrinkled pieces of paper with large characters from her sleeves and handed them to the prince impatiently.
He said proudly:
"Father, Xuan'er has been so well behaved recently!
I have been learning horse riding and archery from my master!
Also, this is the big characters I wrote. Do you think it’s good?”
The prince unfolded the large characters with great joy. After only a quick glance, the smile on his face grew even brighter. He praised them repeatedly:
"Ha, good, this is very well written!
You are indeed my son!"
As the prince spoke, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the little face, which was as dirty as a tabby cat.
At this time, Daiyu saw Hongxuan coming and had already instructed the maids to bring some cakes over.
After a while, the maids brought the freshly made almond milk and hibiscus cakes from the kitchen.
The hibiscus pastry looks like stacked pieces of delicate petals, exuding an alluring fragrance.
As soon as it was brought over, it attracted Hongxuan's attention.
Hongxuan walked to the table, picked up a piece of lotus cake, put it to the prince's mouth, and said softly:
"Ama, please try this and see if it's sweet."
Upon seeing this, the prince was stunned for a moment, then he opened his mouth and swallowed the Hibiscus Pastry in one gulp.
He smiled widely, "Sweet, of course it's sweet, everything Xuan'er gives me is sweet!"
After saying this, the prince looked at the cat-like face that was dirty, picked up his handkerchief and wiped it.
Suddenly, Hongxuan saw Aunt Jiaorou winking at him, and he instantly remembered - while his father was happy, let him send someone to pick up his mother!
Thinking of this, Hongxuan came to the prince again, stroked the messy beard at the corner of his mouth, squeezed out a few tears, and said pitifully:
"Father, Xuan'er misses her mother!"
Daiyu happened to be holding almond juice for the prince. When she heard Hongxuan say this, her hand slipped and the small bowl almost fell out. Fortunately, Zijuan was smart and caught it in time.
The air was instantly filled with awkwardness. The eldest wife was someone the prince didn't want to mention!
Hongxuan saw the prince's smile gradually disappear, his eyes staring blankly ahead, and the big hand that was originally patting his shoulder slowly suddenly dropped down.
After a while, the prince said blankly:
"Xuan'er, be good. We can talk about your mother's matter another day!"
Unexpectedly, Hongxuan thought that her father didn't understand what she meant, so she hurriedly pulled the prince's hand and said coquettishly:
"Father, you love Xuan'er the most, please agree to me!"
Before the prince could respond, Jiao Rou smiled and said:
"Your Highness, when the Emperor came to see you a while ago, he instructed us to go to the Duke's Mansion and bring back the First Consort!"
Unexpectedly, when the prince heard Jiao Rou say this, he roared in anger:
"Shut up, this matter ends here!
Cailian, Cailian, why don't you take the prince back with you!"
Hongxuan was scared. This was the first time he saw his father so angry!
Thinking that his biological mother would not be able to come back for a few days, he suddenly felt extremely aggrieved, opened his mouth wide and burst into tears.
Cai Lian was waiting outside the study. When she heard Hong Xuan crying, she hurried in to comfort her.
Zijuan thought: It is too noisy for a pregnant woman to see all this every day. Xiangyun was taking care of her pregnancy every day. What kind of life is Daiyu, the legitimate wife, living?
She didn't have time to think about it, fearing that Daiyu would have a miscarriage after hearing this, so she pulled her aside.
Jiaorou was filled with anger and had no place to vent it, so she thought of letting Hongxuan be the first to take action and take the opportunity to suppress Daiyu. However, the prince got angry again!
Just when she was about to leave quietly, she saw Hongxuan suddenly go crazy and refused to leave the room.
He cried and shouted, "Mother, I want mother!"
Cai Lian was afraid that the prince would blame her, so she was trembling with fear and pulled Hongxuan out.
But even though he was only seven or eight years old, for some reason, he was so energetic today that he held on to the pillar in the hall and refused to let go.
Just when Cailian was stunned, Hongxuan rushed into the inner room again.
Seeing that no one was on his side and the prince was sulking, he walked to the table, picked up the lotus pastry on the table and threw it away.
For a moment, the plate fell to the ground, and the sound of bang was particularly harsh!
The prince could no longer bear it and shouted:
"Cai Lian, take the prince away quickly!"
Cailian didn't know how Hongxuan was taken away. She only knew that several maids helped her hold Hongxuan.
When the child cried, her heart was completely broken into pieces when she thought that the eldest lady would never come back!
Daiyu wanted to persuade the prince, but she was just a child. However, Zijuan kept pulling at her clothes, so she had to give up!
After everyone left, Daiyu walked to the prince's bed, took his hand, and said lightly:
"Your Majesty..."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the prince closed his eyes and said slowly after a long time:
"Don't say anything, just stay with me!"
