Chapter 388 The Little Overlord

I don't know what Yan Kaizhi and Chengyu said. He actually took the initiative to tell Shaohua that he was willing to stay. On the contrary, it made Chengxi, who had just got used to his brother, cry for a long time. Shaohua asked him if he would stay and let his brother go back to northern Sichuan. He had red eyes and didn't say anything for a long time. Fortunately, Yan Kaizhi said that the eldest son was still young, and the queen was reluctant to let him enter the school so quickly, and she was hesitating for Taifu's candidates, so if they set out in the near future, Chengyu could still accompany them back.

The news made the two little boys very happy. They seemed to thank Yan Kai and made the maids laugh.

And Yan Kaizhi also told Shaohua that the emperor promised him that he would personally escort Chengqi to northern Sichuan to accompany them for the Spring Festival a month in advance every year, which made Shaohua breathe a sigh of relief. Seeing that her two sons had made up as before, she snuggled up in her husband's arms, and her mind had outlined a picture of a family of five.

Since it was the emperor's promise, it was inevitable that she would go to the palace to thank her. Shaohua was reluctant to enter for a long time. As a result, an imperial edict came down and directly sealed a life for her, so that it would be difficult for her not to enter the palace. The Empress Dowager He is no longer here. Shaohua inevitably enters the palace to say greeting the highest in the harem. Although he has nothing to do with He Wanru, Shaohua is not very comfortable with the He family.

Yan Kaizhi saw her emotions, "Don't worry, it is not the queen who is in charge of the harem now, but the noble concubine of Qi, the granddaughter of the Duke of Qi, and the eldest daughter of the minister of the Ministry of Officials."

Shaohua felt a little surprised. After listening to him elaborate, he knew that Qi Zhaoyi was raised to the throne because she gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, and took the initiative to raise the emperor's eldest son under the queen's knees, so the emperor made an exception to make her a noble concubine and take charge of the harem for the queen. Because of taking care of the empress dowager, Empress He was exhausted and was afraid that she would not get pregnant. The emperor was considerate of the queen's filial piety, so she raised the emperor's eldest son under the queen's lap, and it would be right to establish the crown prince in the future.

Obviously, He Wanru is less than 30 years old so far, and she announced that she was infertile so quickly. I'm afraid that the emperor had other plans, and he directly threw a son to her, which simply killed her selfishness. If she has no son, the eldest son of the emperor is raised in front of him, and anyone who sees it must be regarded as the eldest son. But she has a son. This son's biological mother is indeed the noble concubine in charge of the harem. She came to see her son in three days and twice in the name of asking the queen for advice, but she wants to be selfish and is not familiar with it.

Thinking of this, Shaohua felt that Hongyi's move really broke the idea of Empress Dowager He. If she knew it under the spring, I'm afraid she would not close her eyes.

And Yan Kaizhi had known that there would be such a day, but he felt sorry for Rouwan. In fact, if it hadn't been for the indulgence of Empress Dowager He, she wouldn't have fallen into such a mess.

Wearing the real red sleeve jacket unique to the life woman, the pearly frying golden glow, holding a mountain pine bun and fake temples, shaking her way made her frightened. It's hate that Yan Kaizhi at least squeezed his lips and smiled secretly, and then told her halfway that Qi noble concubine would accompany her to thank Queen He. When the greeting is finished, he has to go to the emperor to say greeting the emperor. He also told the two sons to take care of Shaohua. As if they were burdened, they immediately stood next to Shaohua nervously for fear that she would be robbed.

For good, He Wanru did not make things difficult. Maybe he had a bad relationship with Qi Guifei. Looking at Shaohua's two sons, who were smart and clever, he was very unhappy. Therefore, before a cup of tea, the expulsion order was issued, and Qi Guifei was too lazy to make a detour with her, so she took Shaohua away. Knowing that Shaohua needed to wait for Yan Kaizhi, he ordered someone to send her to the imperial garden and went back to the bedroom.

After being nervous for most of the day, he thought it was over, but he was told that the emperor would also come to meet them. Shaohua cursed Yan Kaizhi thousands of times in his heart. With this pearl and jade hairpin ring, it was not easy to maintain balance and care. He had to salute and kneel, and had to have a lot of manners. He had to stare at his two sons and not mess around. Shaohua felt that it was harder than letting her do hard work. She didn't dare to relax all day. Fortunately, Ruanruan was basically asleep and never cried once.

The teenager who has been restrained for most of the day finally can't stand the stubborn nature, especially Chengxi. Since he made up with Chengxi, the two have been inseparable and naughty. Shaohua looked at them biting each other's ears, and his eyebrows suddenly jumped. He immediately knew that they were going to be wild again. Looking left and right at the quiet imperial garden, I don't know if the concubine will pass by, and hurriedly called: "When you see people, you are not allowed to mess around. You have to salute when you should salute. This place is not comparable to being at home."

Chengxi's fleshy body, wearing a jujube red dress, looked particularly festive. He made a grimace at Shaohua, "Okay, mother, don't nag, my ears hurt."

"You're a lot of trouble. Why don't you talk so much?" Shaohua felt more and more that it was wrong to take Chengxi with him, and he must continue to be annoyed by him in the future.

Chong Xichong smiled at his brother, "My brother has been deaf to you."

Shaohua's expression sank. He pretended to be afraid to make a pitiful appearance, and for a moment, he showed a stubborn look. Shaohua was so angry that he scolded: "You stinky boy." If she hadn't seen that this outfit was too heavy and felt that she would fall down after taking a few steps, she would never have spared him.

"Brother, save me!" At this time, Chengxi jumped up in shock and hid behind Chengxi. Chengyu was also very cooperative, like an old hen, protecting his brother behind him. Soft, who woke up at some point, looked at the two brothers playing, waved his little hands happily and shouted.

"Gig, gig..."

Everyone's eyes were suddenly attracted by softness. Shaohua took his daughter from the nanny's arms, and two little boys immediately gathered around.

"What is Ruan Ruan talking about?"

"Brother, is Ruanruan talking to us?"

"Cluck."

Looking at Chengxi's grimace, his soft grunt revealed two small deciduous teeth, which looked very cute. A call similar to "brother" made Shaohua suddenly blush. Chengxi looked at Shaohua excitedly and looked at Ruanruan who had been smiling, "A Niang, Ruan is calling me!"

"You heard it wrong." Shaohua said angrily. Other people's children are either called mother or father. Her daughter is good. As soon as she opens her mouth, she actually calls her brother. Her brother is more important than her mother.

"It's true!" Chengxi refused to give up and began to surround her, teasing her to continue to call her brother. Shaohua was not convinced. He raised his daughter too high to let his son touch it, and insisted on teaching his daughter to call her mother. The unknown soft looked at the first two and three people around her and laughed. She was also very happy and pedaled her short legs so hard that she couldn't see it.

However, Shaohua did not know that the joy of their mother and son fell on another scene in the eyes of others.

As early as when Shaohua entered the imperial garden, he was already here and wanted to go out for a while. After so many years of separation, he has already grown a beard and groups of children under his knees, and her eyebrows seem to remain unchanged, and even her smile is still as pure and clear as before. He dared not imagine that if she had been forced to stay in the capital, he could still see her such a carefree smile now. He was very much looking forward to Shaohua's surprise, even panic, unprepared, and bumping like the deer in those years.

However, when Chengyu and Chengxi ran to her side, Hongfang's smile suddenly died, because these two faces were simply replicas of Yan Kaizhi. Looking at her gentle and tolerant smile to her son, he had thought more than once that she behaved to their children, but her children looked like Yan Kaizhi.

Finally, he chose to stand quietly, across the flower gallery, looking at her quiet back, slender like butterfly flying eyelashes, bright and flower-like smile...

"Dad, I caught you."

A small figure pounced on his feet, interrupted his affectionate gaze, and also shocked the beauty outside the flower gallery.

Hongfang frowned, looked down at his son who was laughing, and looked at his facial features that were seven points similar to his own, and then his heart calmed down. He is also a man with a son, but he is still secretly watching the beautiful woman's delusions behind his back. He raised the corners of his mouth mockingly, led his son, and came out from behind the flower gallery.

She didn't expect to meet Hongfang in this place. She made all kinds of conjectures and thought she would meet the noble daughter of the imperial concubine, but she didn't expect that the first one she met was Hongfang.

Shaohua looked around nervously and saw that Yan Kaizhi could not suddenly come there as she hoped, so she could only hold her daughter's half body and salute Hongfang. I have met the prince of the world." Looking up and seeing Hongfang unconsciously, she walked to her original position and sat down, causing her to stand still awkwardly with her daughter in her arms.

Looking at the beautiful woman so close, Hongfang found that she had actually changed. If it was not the proud eyes of those years, he didn't know whether the wind and sand in the north of Sichuan was too big, or the stubbornness of her children pulled down the raised corners of her eyes and bent down the gentle arc. The face is not as round as before, but seems to have been cut by the years, making the apricot eyes more bright.

Maybe Hongfang's gaze was so focused that he forgot to avoid it. It was not until Shao Hua coughed softly that he replied calmly, "I haven't seen you for many years. I'm all right."

"It's all good to the son."

In fact, in addition to growing a beard, Hongfang still looks the same as before, the same cynical and unruly. In my heart, I was grateful for Hongfang's help at the beginning, but when I saw myself, I felt another feeling.

Hongfang saw the alienation in Shaohua's tone and looked up. She only looked around. He deliberately asked, "Do you hate me or are you afraid of me?"

Shaohua came to his senses and pulled the corners of his mouth unnaturally, "What did the prince say? It's just that my husband is not here. It's not good to meet in private like this..."

"With so many people, are you afraid that I can't kidnap you?" Hongfang didn't seem to hear her. He interrupted her and couldn't help laughing when he saw Shaohua holding his daughter and staring at him. You still haven't changed, just like before.

Hongfang pointed to her position and said, "Sit down, I was also left behind. By the way, I will take care of this demon king." Shaohua doesn't dare to sit down. Even if she is now named a second-class woman, she can only stand in front of Hongfang, the prospective prince. In his heart, he only prayed Yan Kaizhi to come quickly, otherwise, if he was seen by others, he might say something to gossip. Shaohua was preparing to leave as an excuse, but Hongfang summoned his son, "Chengyan, come here and greet... Mrs. Xingyonghou."

At this time, Shaohua noticed that a little boy who had been hiding beside Hongfang looked about the same age as Chengxi, but he thought he should only be older than Chengxi. What surprised her more was that Chengqi's appearance was like a reduced version of Hongfang, especially those eyes. She sighed in her heart that this young age was already so evil. If she grew up, how many women would be heartbroken for him. She looked back at her two sons and thought that if there were four gentlemen in Beijing again, her two sons would occupy half of the seats.

Thinking about this, Shaohua can't help but be a little complacent.

I don't know where Shaohua's confident smile came from. Chengqi looked a little unhappy and curled his lips: "She didn't welcome me."
