Liang Zhen didn't come back until noon, and Zhu Yunxuan was already having lunch with his son, so he sat directly on the table and asked someone to bring an extra set of bowls and chopsticks.
Zhu Yunxuan raised her eyes and glanced at him, without asking anything, just lowered her head and continued to eat. Mu'er blinked at Liang Zhen, and asked him expectantly: "Can you go out to play with father again when you're full?"
Liang Zhen stretched out his hand with a smile, and wiped off the oil stains on the corner of the child's mouth with his thumb: "Not today."
Chu'er immediately pouted in disappointment: "Why?"
"I'm not going anywhere today, and tomorrow, father will take you and daddy to another island to play."
"Really?"
Liang Zhen smiled lowly: "Of course it's true, when did father lie to the little baby?"
Only then did Zhu Yunxuan speak slowly: "Isn't the matter on the island finished?"
Liang Zhen didn't let them go out, it must be because the outside is not clean, Zhu Yunxuan can probably guess the reason.
The corner of Liang Zhen's mouth twitched slightly: "The main event has not yet appeared, His Majesty's appearance just made their plan ahead of time, and the dog is about to jump over the wall in a hurry, Your Majesty, just wait and see tonight."
Seeing Zhu Yunxuan frowning lightly, Liang Zhen smiled and blinked at him: "Why don't you ask, how did I deal with the person who released the news?"
Zhu Yunxuan looked at him lightly: "What can I ask?"
He didn't care how Liang Zhen dealt with the person, and he wasn't even interested in knowing whether the other party did it intentionally or accidentally. He only knew that people would never appear in front of them again in the future.
"You really don't want to ask?"
Zhu Yunxuan shook his head slightly: "However, if you really deal with people, you won't worry that your subordinates are divorced from you?"
"There's nothing to worry about," Liang Zhen said disapprovingly, "If he's really such an indistinct person, I wouldn't need a subordinate like him."
There was no need for Zhu Yunxuan to worry about Liang Zhen's affairs, he didn't ask any more questions, he hugged Min'er on his body, and coaxed the child to eat more.
Seeing that the three-year-old child was still being fed, Liang Zhen raised his hand and pinched the child's nose amusingly: "Your father raised the little brat to be more delicate than a princess, what will happen in the future."
Min'er raised her head in confusion and asked Zhu Yunxuan, "Daddy, what is a princess?"
Zhu Yunxuan smiled and rubbed the soft hair on the top of his head: "Good baby is not a princess but a prince, you will know in the future."
The child blinked blankly, what is the prince? Is it delicious
Liang Zhen smiled meaningfully: "Prince? Then how does His Majesty plan to explain this little prince's background to others?"
Zhu Yunxuan thought about it quietly for a moment, and a faint smile flashed in his eyes: "It jumped out of the cracks in the rocks."
Liang Zhen: "..."
From that whole afternoon until nightfall, the three of them never stepped out of the room again. Liang Zhen taught her how to make bamboo toys. Zhu Yunxuan was so comfortable reading and playing chess. The similar smiling faces were always in a trance, and for a moment, he even hoped that this time could last a little longer.
After dinner, Liang Zhen still had no intention of leaving, and played chess with Zhu Yunxuan in the room until the time of Haishi. Min'er was already sleepy, lying in Zhu Yunxuan's arms and sleeping like a pig. Liang Zhen saw Zhu Yunxuan Maintaining a posture for fear that he would be tired, he approached and carefully carried the child into his arms.
Staring at the child's sleeping face for a moment, Liang Zhen lightly touched the child's rosy face after sleeping with his fingers, and whispered: "At first I thought this child would be a pig, but I didn't expect him to be born a month prematurely." , turned into a puppy, and now looks like a little piggy."
Zhu Yunxuan frowned: "... who are you scolding?"
"Curse myself," Liang Zhen chuckled, with fleeting sadness in his eyes, "At the beginning I really thought that this child was gone, as if the last link between me and His Majesty had also been severed... On the road to the south, I happened to meet a team from Duke Ding's Mansion, I didn't give up, and even sent someone to check, I never thought that Min'er had already been taken to the southern border at that time, so I just missed it."
Zhu Yunxuan drooped his eyes and rubbed the chess piece in his hand, speechless, Liang Zhen shook his head, and sighed softly: "The first time I saw this child, I knew he must be His Majesty's son, he looks almost the same as His Majesty Same, same temper, I like him as soon as I see him."
After being relatively silent for a long time, Zhu Yunxuan murmured: "Isn't he also your son."
"Yes," Liang Zhen squeezed Min'er's hand, nodded with a smile, "it's my son."
Zhu Yunxuan felt a little uncomfortable, carried the child back, and reminded Liang Zhen: "Okay, I'll take Min'er to sleep, you should go back to the room to rest."
"Sleep, Your Majesty, I will watch over you."
Zhu Yunxuan looked out the window at the pitch-black night, his eyes darkened slightly, and there seemed to be a faint cluster of fire beating in the distance, he watched quietly for a moment, then let him go: "If you like to guard, just guard."
He carried his son to the bed, and Min'er was awakened in a daze, Zhu Yunxuan patted him lightly: "Good baby, go on sleeping."
The child rubbed his eyes, saw Liang Zhen who was still sitting on the couch beside him, and asked Zhu Yunxuan in a low voice: "Don't father sleep with Daddy and Min'er?"
Zhu Yunxuan lowered her head and kissed the soft face of the child: "Father will sleep later, you go to bed first, good boy."
Zhu Yunxuan lay down, turned her back to the direction outside the bed, patted her son gently, and coaxed him to sleep again. He closed his eyes but couldn't fall asleep, and he could feel the gaze behind him that fell on him from time to time without looking at him.
In the middle of the night, the faint shouts from outside suddenly pierced the tranquility of the night. Liang Zhen put down the book in his hand, walked to the bed and sat down. Zhu Yunxuan immediately opened his eyes, and looked at the bright eyes in the faint candlelight. Liang Zhen, Liang Zhen lowered his eyes and smiled, and helped him tuck the quilt: "Is Your Majesty still asleep?"
Hearing Liang Zhen's hoarse and gentle voice, Zhu Yunxuan was in a daze for a moment: "...do you want to go out?"
"It's not yet time, just wait."
Zhu Yunxuan came back to his senses, frowned and nodded, and only reminded him: "Don't scare the child."
"Don't worry, it's fine."
Zhu Yunxuan closed his eyes again, still without any sleepiness, Liang Zhen's fingers picked up his loose long hair and twirled it around his fingertips, leaning on his lower body, and printed a kiss on the side of his face, Zhu Yunxuan didn't move, just Eyelashes trembled slightly.
The cries of fighting and the sound of clashing swords were getting closer and closer, as if someone had already rushed into the general's mansion. For no reason, Zhu Yunxuan recalled that night in Ganlin Palace, where there was a bloody storm outside. But it was unprecedentedly peaceful, they talked all night, and they were honest with each other for the first time.
I used to think that there would be no future, but time has passed and circumstances have changed to the present, and things in the world are always so unexpected. Zhu Yunxuan closed her eyes and laughed silently, Liang Zhen's voice was next to her ears: "What are you laughing at, Your Majesty?"
"… nothing."
Zhu Yunxuan refused to say anything, but Min'er turned over in his arms, sobbing and crying in her sleep, Zhu Yunxuan hugged him tightly and coaxed him gently: "Don't be afraid, my dear baby, Daddy is here..."
After a few sobs, the child fell asleep again, and Liang Zhen sighed, "It's not easy to take care of a child."
"Just get used to it," Zhu Yunxuan murmured, "I will make up for what I owe him."
Liang Zhen didn't say anything more, and helped their father and son tuck up the quilt again: "Go to sleep."
After about half an hour, the hustle and bustle outside gradually subsided. Liang Zhen blew out the last candle, got up and left the room.
Zhu Yunxuan glanced back, only saw a blurry figure going away, dazed for a moment, closed her eyes, and then gradually fell asleep.
It was already dawn when Liang Zhen came back, he took off his outer shirt, lay down on the bed and lightly embraced Zhu Yunxuan from behind. Zhu Yunxuan moved his body, and he woke up just now when he heard the movement, but he just didn't want to open his eyes, smelling the faint smell of blood on Liang Zhen's body, and asked him in a hoarse voice: "Is the matter over?"
"Well, everyone who needs to be dealt with has been dealt with. I'm a little tired. Please let me lie here for a while, Your Majesty."
Hearing the exhaustion in his voice, Zhu Yunxuan didn't move any more, and lightly squeezed the hand on his waist. Liang Zhen pressed it against him, and rubbed his ears against his temples. After a while, Zhu Yunxuan asked him again: "What are you doing?" injured?"
"No, some other people's blood was on my body."
Zhu Yunxuan snorted lightly, but her tone relaxed a little unconsciously: "How long have you been planning this?"
"It's just a plan. Uncle Rong colluded with Lao Chen and persuaded several other people to seize power from me. I didn't want to argue with them. They just wanted to give it to them. But now that His Majesty is willing to let these people on the island return Dayan, I naturally have to get rid of those people with ulterior motives first, so as not to cause trouble to His Majesty in the future."
He said with a low laugh: "If they hadn't discovered His Majesty's identity, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly. Originally, I was worrying about how to deal with them as soon as possible, so I sent it to my door."
"Are you sure they will act tonight?"
"I was forced to rush, so naturally I couldn't wait any longer."
Zhu Yunxuan breathed a sigh of relief: "You are always like this, as if you are sure about everything..."
"That's not necessarily true." Liang Zhen leaned close to him and kissed the hair behind his ear, "I've never been sure about His Majesty's heart."
Zhu Yunxuan didn't say any more, as if he fell asleep again, Liang Zhen held him tighter, and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, I promised you yesterday that I will take you to another island Play, go open your eyes, want to go?"
After a pause, Zhu Yunxuan asked in a low voice, "Go today? Are you afraid that there will be another change on the island?"
"No, just leave the rest of the matter to the people below. Walk south for a day from here, and there is a rainbow island, which is very beautiful. Your Majesty and Yu'er will like it there."
"Well... let's go then."
Liang Zhen smiled softly: "Okay, let's sleep for a while, and we will leave when Min'er wakes up and has breakfast."
