Chapter 1293: Rewarded 1 times within 2 day

"No, the tiger is behaving well under my nose!"

"Sui Dan, you don't have the ability to subdue dragons and tigers!"

Sui Dan shook his head and pointed at the snake hidden inside his clothes, meaning that he only knew how to tame snakes.

Cheng Youning didn't believe it, but he didn't want to shout at the top of his voice, so he sat back in the sedan quietly.

After an incense stick of time, their carriage stopped in the southeast direction of Fengying City, and they arrived at the Prince's Palace.

Before Cheng Youning could take a careful look at his Prince's Mansion, another imperial edict from the Emperor arrived. Cheng Youning hurriedly knelt down with his men to receive the order.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that Crown Prince Youning is a man who never tires of learning, never puts down his books, forgets to eat and sleep, gets up at the sound of the cock-crow, works diligently, and does everything himself. He is my son of the Phoenix and the Dragon. I now grant him a pair of oriental pearls, a pair of ruyi, ten volumes of imperial books, and a hundred taels of gold..."

Cheng Youning never thought that his grandfather would reward him twice in one day, and both were generous rewards, so he was so happy that his mouth stretched to his ears.

After receiving the imperial edict, he quickly ordered people to collect the treasures bestowed by the emperor together with the treasures brought from home. He excitedly said to Qiao Rong: "Grandpa is really kind to me. He knows that I like Dongzhu, so he sent someone to send me a pair as soon as I arrived at the Prince's Mansion. I don't know where Grandpa found them for me!"

Qiao Rong looked at Cheng Youning who only knew joy and no sorrow and shook his head secretly. This Dongzhu was just an introduction, a pretext. The emperor's real intention was to keep Cheng Youning in the prince's mansion. There was no need to go out and look for this Dongzhu. It was estimated that the emperor already had the Dongzhu.

"Your Highness, since the Emperor appreciates you so much, you should study harder in the future."

Cheng Youning raised his eyelids and rolled his eyes at Qiao Rong: "There is no day that this prince does not study and work hard. Have you heard the praises written in the imperial edict? This prince has always been diligent and never tired of learning!"

Qiao Rong twitched the corner of his mouth but didn't want to pour cold water on Cheng Youning. He estimated that Cheng Youning wouldn't be able to smile for too long and he would burst into tears in a few days.

At this time, the old butler stepped forward and said to Cheng Youning: "Congratulations, Your Highness the Crown Prince! Congratulations, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Congratulations, old housekeeper. Come in and have a cup of tea!"

"No, if Your Highness has no other instructions, I will return to the palace to report!"

"Old butler, please wait a minute. I will go to the palace with you. Today, I have received such a generous gift from my grandfather. I should thank him in person!" Cheng Youning learned etiquette since he was a child, and he knew all the etiquette that should be observed.

The old butler nodded with satisfaction, then took Cheng Youning to the palace.

Seeing Cheng Youning, who was full of energy and cheerful, Wan Lianxing was also happy in his heart, "Youning! We just moved to the Prince's Mansion, are you adapting well?"

"Replying to Grandfather, I have adapted very well to the situation here. I like the Prince's Mansion very much! So I have come here specially to thank you for your grace!"

"Since you are here to thank me, then please accompany me for dinner!"

Cheng Youning looked at Taise. It was still some time before dinner and he was still thinking about going back to his prince's mansion for a good tour. But since his grandfather had spoken, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Cheng Youning pondered for a moment, thinking that his grandfather was going to give him a banquet to reward him. If so, there should be singing and dancing to watch. Thinking of this, he calmed himself down and waited until dinner time.

Cheng Youning saw that the only people eating were his young grandfather and his young grandmother, and they were not sharing the food. There were not many dishes on the table. Fortunately, they were all his favorites. But looking at it this way, it seemed like just an ordinary dinner, not the banquet he had imagined. There was no singing or dancing either.

Wan Lianxing sat in the center, the empress on the left, and Cheng Youning on the right.

Cheng Youning had eaten countless meals in the palace, but this meal made him feel uncomfortable. He always felt that it was different from the usual meals. It seemed like an ordinary family dinner, but it felt inexplicably solemn.

"Youning, why don't you eat?" The one who urged him to eat was Queen Zhong Siyu, who had already put a lot of dishes into Cheng Youning's bowl.

Cheng Youning was worried. The way Zhong Siyu looked at him today was a little different from the past. In the past, this woman's tone of voice was extremely gentle, and today it was even softer. This tone of voice was usually used on his grandfather, so why did she use this tone on him today? Cheng Youning couldn't help it and the hairs on his body stood up.

"What are you thinking about? Why aren't you eating!" This time it was his little grandfather who urged him. His little grandfather seemed to be different from before. In the past, he always looked at him with a smile, but today, the look in his eyes lost that playful smile and instead had a little more majesty.

Cheng Youning thought, what kind of banquet is this! Could it be that his status has changed, and his grandpa and grandma's views on him have also changed? But that shouldn't be the case, isn't this status given by his grandpa? He shook his head and tried to make himself clear-headed. He thought it wasn't his grandpa and grandma who had changed, but that he had received too many rewards today and was confused for a while. This must be his problem.

Cheng Youning has an advantage, which is that he knows how to reflect on himself. After reflecting on himself in his heart, he picked up the bowl and started eating with big mouthfuls.

When Cheng Youning put down his chopsticks, he burped uncontrollably. At this time, Zhong Siyu said, "Youning, have another bowl of soup!"

Cheng Youning waved her hands and said, "Grandma, I really can't eat any more!"

He ate two bowls of rice and a lot of dishes. There was no room left in his stomach. He couldn't swallow even a sip of water, let alone a bowl of soup.

After getting on the carriage, Cheng Youning held Qiao Rong's hand and said, "Qiao Rong, am I too happy or what? I feel weird today!"

"What's so strange about that?"

"When I was having dinner, why did my grandpa and grandma keep picking up food for me? Isn't it the servants' job to serve the food? Why did they pick up food for me?"

"Maybe I like you!"

"Then why didn't you pick up some food for me? Also, did you notice that my grandpa and grandma were eating very strangely during this meal?"

Qiao Rong lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, you can't say such nonsense."

"It's really weird. They both seem to be eating seriously, but they are both absent-minded. From time to time, they glance at me vaguely, seemingly unintentionally, but actually deliberately!"

"Your Highness, don't talk nonsense, you are overthinking it!"

"Qiao Rong, my father was born a hunter, and I also have a talent for hunting. My father has taken me to the mountains to hunt since I was a child, and I have long since developed a keenness that is different from that of ordinary people."
