Ji Di has heard Rong Xi's voice before, her voice is very soft, as sweet as the singing of a warbler, and now he really wants her to use this soft voice to talk to him and beg him for mercy.
Rong Xi turned her face away, she had a sullen expression on her face, because of the medicinal properties, her delicate face was as ripe as a spring peach, with a thin layer of pink.
After waking up, she looked at the sky, and it was said that less than an hour had passed since she was kidnapped here. Although the three attendants who went with her to the silk building bureau were not as good as Ji Xun's, they were all first-class masters. Ji Xing couldn't escape from Bianjing City, and the place where the two of them were located was also in the posthouse not far from the imperial city. The attendants must have split up and told Mu Huai about it.
Mu Huai will be able to find her sooner or later, Ji Xun is aware of this.
In fact, he was not afraid that this matter would be exposed, on the contrary, he wanted it to be exposed. Ji Xun did this to humiliate her, and to make Mu Huai despise her.
It is really more uncomfortable to use this kind of despicable means to take revenge on her than to let her die.
Rong Xi tried hard to calm himself down, and also relied on perseverance to resist the drug effect.
Ji Xi was staring at her, and there was still a small inch of arrow scar on his neck, if she had killed him a few years ago and then thrown his body at the bottom of the cliff, perhaps these things would not have happened today.
- "My son."
A rough male voice called Ji Xun from outside the guest room.
After hearing this, Ji Di walked out of the guest room with a dark face.
Rong Xi's body was limp and weak, and she couldn't move easily. Fortunately, there was a pearl hairpin on her bun. Rong Xi quietly took the pearl hairpin off her hair while Ji Xun was talking with her subordinates outside, determined to gather enough strength , When Ji Xun approached her, he stabbed Ji Xun with this pearl hairpin.
This time, she must stab Ji Xun's artery fiercely and kill him.
Rong Xi knew that even if she killed Ji Di, Ji Di's subordinates would not let her go, and she would still die.
Furthermore, since she was hijacked by a gang of gangsters and drugged, I don't know if Mu Huai would care about this, and if he could allow her to be his wife again.
Ji Di had already turned back, Rong Xi hid the pearl hairpin in his sweaty palm.
When he returned this time, his brows were slightly twisted.
Just as Ji Di was about to lift her chin with her hand to have a closer look, Rong Xi was extremely disgusted by his touch, and she spat on Ji Di with all her strength.
Ji Xun's complexion darkened after being humiliated.
He really didn't expect that a stunning beauty like Rong Xi would do such a vulgar thing.
Thinking of how she played tricks on him a few years ago, Ji Di suddenly felt an unknown anger in his heart, and raised his hand to slap Rong Xi hard.
There was a "pop-".
Ji Di said coldly: "Tell you, this is the first time I hit a woman."
The man has great strength, and it was the first time for Rong Xi to be beaten by a man at such a young age. With a buzzing sound in her head, she subconsciously covered her cheek with her hand.
Thinking of Mu Huai in the past, no matter how violent his temper was, even if she deliberately provoked him in order to escape from the palace, Mu Huai never did anything to her, at best he just reprimanded her a few words.
Tears gradually ooze from Rong Xi's eyes, but it's not because she wants to cry, but because Ji Di's slap hurts too much.
She didn't want to show her vulnerable side in front of people like Ji Di, so she replied coldly and provocatively: "That's all you can do, Ji Di. Besides playing with women, what else can you do?"
"you… "
Rong Xi's ridicule hit a sore spot in Ji Xun's heart, and it made him angry like salt on his wound.
He came to Qi country that year, in fact, to avoid disaster.
After he learned of his unethical relationship with the concubine Ji Li and the concubine of Yanjun, Yanjun moved to kill him. Although Yanjun's power in the court was not as powerful as his father's regent, he was a monarch after all. It also has its own power in the court.
After the balance between the two parties, Empress Dowager Xiao let him conceal his name and went south to Qi to avoid Yan Jun Jili's pursuit of him, and announced to the outside world that the prince regent's son was seriously ill and was recuperating in the mansion.
He was originally the illegitimate son of Empress Dowager Xiao and the Prince Regent, and Yan Jun Ji Li always mocked him, saying that he was a dandy who only knew how to play with women, that he was a moth of Dayan, and took the salary of the people of Dayan for nothing.
After Ji Di came to Qi State, she always held a grudge against Yan Jun's ridicule, and always wanted to prove something to him, so she sneaked into Qi State's military camp, hoping to find out some Qi State's military opportunities.
This time he came together, he took the initiative to invite Ying.
On the one hand, it was to avenge Rong Xi, and on the other hand, it was also because Yan Jun didn't want his son to be a hostage, and he also wanted to make some contributions to Dayan.
The reason is that I don't want people to ridicule him and call him useless.
And what Rong Xi said today was almost exactly the same as what Yan Jun mocked him.
Ji Di's handsome and coquettish face gradually turned ferocious, he sneered, and cursed in a harsh tone: "Bitch, you are about to become the abandoned wife and empress of the monarch of Qi, so you should keep your tongue and talk to Mu Huai." stop!"
After all, Ji Xunfu wanted to wave his hand, and then slap Rongxi.
At this time, Rong Xi also tightly grasped the pearl hairpin, intending to stab it towards Ji Xun.
Just listen to "Boom -" sound.
Both Rong Xi and Ji Xun stopped their movements, and Ji Xun stood in front of Rong Xi, and when she turned around to look, she saw that the mahogany grille door of the guest room fell to the ground in response.
Immediately, several tall men entered the door.
The leader was Mu Huai with an angry face. The young man standing beside him, Ji Xun, also recognized him as Pingnan Army Hou Yincheng.
Ji Xun was startled, and the screams of the rough food servants in the posthouse also sounded in her ears.
"Ah-dead...dead man!!!"
The two qinggong masters sent by the regent to Qi to protect him were brutally killed.
Ji Di's phoenix eyes suddenly widened, before he could react, Mu Huai had already charged in front of him aggressively, he grabbed the skirt of his clothes, and slammed his fist at Ji Di's face.
Mu Huai's strength was several times stronger than that of ordinary fighters, and Ji Di felt that his cheekbones were about to be shattered by his punch.
Ji Xun boasted that he had some martial arts skills, and he was much better than ordinary people, but if he fought Mu Huai alone with his bare hands, he would not be able to defeat Mu Huai at all.
Regardless of skills, just talking about the suppression of strength, ten of them are not Mu Huai's opponents.
Mu Huai's eyes were gloomy, and he didn't say any moves. After throwing Ji Xun to the ground, he clenched his fists and slammed his hateful face fiercely.
— "Who are you calling a slut? What kind of heart and leopard have you eaten? How dare you touch me and a woman when you are tired of life?"
When Mu Huai just entered the room, he unwittingly saw that Ji Xing's fingerprint was still on Rong Xi's delicate face.
He knew that Ji Di, this disgusting thing, even hit his Xi'er with his hands. With such a timid and beautiful face, this Ji Di was actually willing to hit him ruthlessly.
Thinking of this, Mu Huai's eyes became more ruthless, and the strength of his attack became heavier.
Mu Huai didn't give Ji Di a chance to reply at all, he just ignored him and wanted to beat him to death.
Ji Di didn't want to die under Mu Huai's fist, when Mu Huai let go of him and wanted to check Rong Xi's condition, a large stream of blood gushed out of his throat, soaking the clothes in front of him.
With a difficult tone, Ji Di lay on the ground and questioned Mu Huai, saying, "...Mu Huai...if you kill me, won't you be afraid of me...will my father and Yan Jun take revenge?"
But these words were like the wind that made the fire grow stronger, and suddenly made the arrogance in Mu Huai's heart even stronger.
"How old are your father and Lord Yan? The reason why that cowardly idiot Ji Li sent you to Qi State was because he was afraid that Zhen would lead his troops to attack your Yan State."
Mu Huai has a strong personality and a strong desire to control. He hates being threatened the most in his life.
Ji Di had already touched his bottom line, and he could no longer tolerate this disgusting thing living in the world.
Mu Huai didn't give Ji Di any chance to speak back, and once again punched Ji Di's face that had become bloody and bloody. After a dozen blows, Ji Di's originally handsome and coquettish face was dented by him.
Blood seeped all over the ground, and Ji Xun was already dead.
Mu Huai still felt that it was hard to vent the hatred in his heart, and he was still pounding punch after punch.
Until Rong Xi called weakly: "...your majesty...your majesty...help me."
Mu Huai had just stopped, his slender hands with well-defined phalanges were already stained with Ji Xun's blood, Yin Cheng knew Mu Huai well, knew that according to his temperament, he would definitely beat Ji Xun to death himself, so before entering the room, So I called the young man of the post to prepare clean water, and made arrangements with the owner of the post in advance to let him clear the rest of the guests.
Right now, there are no other guests in the posthouse.
After Mu Huai washed his hands with clean water, Yin Cheng also looked at Ji Di's dead body with disgust.
If Mu Huai endured this matter today, he would also look down on him.
When Mu Huai walked towards Rong Xi, he realized that something was wrong with her expression, and her face was also unusually red.
He hugged the weak and petite woman in his arms, only then did he realize that this Ji Di actually drugged Rong Xi!
Yin Cheng also didn't notice Rong Xi's strangeness, he only looked at Ji Di's miserable corpse, and asked, "How will Your Majesty deal with the corpse of the Crown Prince of Yan?"
Mu Huai sneered, with a chill in his voice, and said: "After dismembering his corpse by five horses, he will peel off his hideous skin and send them back to the Kingdom of Yan. The head and skin will be given to his father, the Regent, and the limbs will be given to him." Leave it to Empress Dowager Xiao, and leave her torso to Lord Yan Jili."
After hearing these words, Rong Xi couldn't help shivering in Mu Huai's arms.
Yin Cheng's expression was extremely indifferent, and he replied respectfully: "I obey the order."
In fact, Yin Cheng felt early on that with the current strength of Qi State, it would not be a big problem to fight Yan State, and the chances of winning were relatively high. When Mu Huai agreed to accept Yan Shizi as a hostage, Yin Cheng still felt that it was unnecessary.
Perhaps because he loves his queen too much and has two children, Yin Cheng feels that Mu Huai has become more cautious in his actions in recent years, he has become afraid to take risks easily, and he is not like him.
After Mu Huai carried Rong Xi away from this guest room, the owner of the inn vaguely guessed his identity, and vacated the best guest room for the two of them.
After Rong Xi was finally carefully placed on the bed by him, his sanity was on the verge of collapse.
She wept aloud, although she felt uncomfortable, the first thing she could think of was to explain to Mu Huai.
"Husband...he...he really didn't do anything to the concubine, he just hit the concubine...except for his face...he didn't touch anything else."
With pity in his eyes, Mu Huai also put his tender hand on her injured cheek, and said without hesitation: "I believe in Xi'er. I was negligent and didn't protect Xi'er well..."
After Rong Xi was hugged by him, her tears became more and more violent.
She couldn't see any doubts in the man's deep eyes, but could only see that he loved her, and there was even a trace of guilt.
Mu Huai only cares about whether she has been hurt, and if the man next to him encounters such a thing, he will definitely feel suspicious.
But Mu Huai didn't.
Mu Huai completely trusted her.
And she has been with Mu Huai for so many years, if she encounters such a thing, her first thought must be suspicion.
The shame in Rong Xi's heart made her feel ashamed, and she couldn't help crying.
Mu Huai kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes. He thought it was Rong Xi who was afraid of the medicine, so he coaxed: "Xi'er, don't be afraid, I'll be with you, don't be afraid..."
"Ok… "
Mu Huai brushed her loose hair behind her ears, his eyes were dark, but his movements were extremely careful and restrained, helping her relieve the medicine.
The window was blown open by the autumn wind, and there was still an hour before the curfew in Bianjing, which was the time when people were buzzing.
In Rong Xi's ears, she could vaguely hear the shouting of vendors outside the window, and the babbling and singing of actors. The medicinal properties magnified her senses several times. She leaned on Mu Huai's shoulder, and could clearly hear his strong voice. And a strong heartbeat.
When she was on the verge of extinction, she didn't know if it was her illusion. It seemed that gorgeous fireworks were ignited not far from the window, and the crowd outside the posthouse became more lively. Rong Xi was extremely nervous, and her body tensed up, she felt that she couldn't bear it anymore.
— "Xi'er."
Mu Huai called her at this time, his voice was as deep and magnetic as ever, but it was still a little hoarse.
She just felt that her heart seemed to be scalded.
Rong Xi couldn't speak, her cheeks were flushed, and she looked at him blankly.
Mu Huai's eyes were gentle and doting, and he leaned over and kissed the corner of her lips lightly.
"I love you."
Bianjing has already passed the curfew hour, and the watchmen on the street are beating bangs and gongs, shouting loudly: "The sky is dry and the things are dry, be careful of the candles—"
After Rong Xi fell into a deep sleep, Mu Huai fixed the quilt for her, sat on the side of the couch and watched her sleeping face silently for a while before walking out of the guest room.
The bright moon hangs high, and there is silence all around, only the rustling sound of the dead autumn leaves swirling with the wind and sand.
Yin Cheng was sitting on the stone steps outside the posthouse, and when he saw Mu Huai sitting beside him, he handed him a jar of wine beside him.
After Mu Huai took it, Yin Cheng asked, "Are you appeased?"
Yin Cheng didn't know that Rong Xi had been drugged, but at this moment, Mu Huai was simply comforting his beloved woman.
"Ok."
After Mu Huai replied his word lightly, he drank the fine wine Yin Cheng handed him.
After the spicy drink passed through his throat, Mu Huai asked, "Do you feel that what I did today was reckless?"
Yin Cheng smiled lightly, shook his head and replied, "I don't think so."
Mu Huai's move today means that he will tear his face away from the Yan State, and it also means that there will be a huge war between the two countries in the near future.
—"The minister is a military commander, if he doesn't fight for His Majesty on the battlefield, wouldn't he be taking the people's salary for nothing?"
Mu Huai's dark eyes were fixed on Yin Cheng's young and handsome side face.
He was cautious about cutting Yan because of the painful memory of his previous life, Yin Cheng died in that war, and he didn't want to repeat the same mistakes.
Seeing that Mu Huai remained silent, Yin Cheng asked again: "My Great Qi has nearly a million soldiers, all of them are loyal to His Majesty, and are willing to fight to the death for His Majesty. I know that Your Majesty is by no means the master of success, and he will definitely set up a frontier." The virtue of martial arts. I have always admired His Majesty for this, and I don't want His Majesty to change."
— "So, Your Majesty, don't have any hesitation."
"As a general, I don't want to be lingering on the sick bed and die. If I die, I will die on the battlefield, so that this life is not in vain."
Yin Cheng's words dispelled Mu Huai's doubts and the shadow of the war in his previous life.
Mu Huai held the wine jar and knocked it against Yin Cheng's.
On the deserted street at night, the sound of wine jars colliding suddenly sounded.
Yin Cheng helplessly laughed.
He knows that Mu Huai is reticent and has always been bad at expressing his emotions.
However, under the bright moonlight, the handsome face of the young emperor beside him was full of determination, and Yin Cheng knew that he had already made up his mind to go to war with Yan.
*****
Taizhang six years, early spring.
Qi Yan has been at odds with each other for a long time, and the two countries are at war soon.
In the next day, Mu Huai will go on a personal expedition with Yin Cheng and lead troops to attack Qi.
This time, Mu Huai no longer allowed Rong Xi to go to the military camp with him.
Rong Xi also knew that defeating Yan was much more difficult than defeating Ye, and Mu Huai should have been afraid that he would fail, so he refused to take her with him.
The last time she went to the military camp, she made a rash decision to kill Ji Xun, which actually caused trouble for Mu Huai.
This time, she stayed in the palace well and waited for him to come back with her two children.
Several months have passed since the last incident, and Rong Xi still remembers what he said to her at the post house. She once wondered if she was hallucinating.
But later I felt that I should have heard correctly.
But no matter whether he said this sentence to himself or not, Rong Xi wanted to say this sentence to him before he set off.
But Rong Xi couldn't find the right time.
She always felt that if she said these words hastily, both she and Mu Huai would be embarrassed.
Mu Huai was thinking deeply, when he said this to her, the timing was just right.
After he finished speaking, she fainted, and neither party would be embarrassed.
Being so entangled, she actually delayed this matter until the day when Mu Huai was about to set off for an expedition.
Recently, Rong Xi has always been prone to sleepiness and fatigue. Today, when he arrived at the Qianyuan Hall, he wanted to take advantage of the time when he was grinding ink for Mu Huai, so he said this sentence to him.
When Mu Huai was grading papers, he saw that she was sleepy, so he ordered her to sleep in the bedroom for a while.
Rong Xi had no choice but to nod her head docilely.
If these words were said with a yawn, it would be even more embarrassing for both parties.
Lying on the spacious and luxurious dragon bed, Rong Xi smelled the familiar and familiar ambergris in the palace. After closing his eyes, he gradually entered a strange dream.
In the dream, she was not rescued by Mu Huai and Yin Cheng on the way to flee Hongdu with Huanniang, but instead was brutally murdered to death by those gangsters, and the child was naturally not kept.
Rong Xi's heart beat like a drum.
But in the dream, after her body was found by Mu Huai, the man's expression was a grief she had never seen before.
Mu Huai hugged her cold body and lay in the coffin overnight, and talked to her a lot in a gentle manner.
The always domineering man in the dream seemed to have shed a few tears.
Rong Xi has been with Mu Huai for so long, and she has never seen him cry.
The next day, after Mu Huai pushed open the door, the originally black ink hair gave birth to a lot of gorgeous hair overnight.
Rong Xi was trapped in a dream, she could neither speak nor move.
She could only be forced to watch scene after scene that made her heartache.
Rong Xi wanted to persuade Mu Huai in his dream to eat well and sleep well.
But that man couldn't hear it. He wasted his body all day long and immersed himself in tedious government affairs every night.
In the dream, his temperament was even more withdrawn and violent than when he was the fourth prince. Although he was wearing a luxurious imperial crown, he was really a sad lonely man.
By his side, there was no one to take care of him.
Rong Xi also saw it. He was awakened by the nightmare at night, and called her name with red eyes, scolded her for being cruel, and scolded her for not staying longer in his dream.
She also saw that Mu Huai in the dream had never married, and before he died, he ordered his servant Cheng Song to make her queen and to be buried together with her.
Rong Xi struggled to escape from that terrible dream. This dream was so real that she always felt that everything in the dream had happened in reality.
"Zhi Yan...Zhi Yan..."
Rong Xi called Mu Huai's name with a weeping voice, tears were already overflowing on his face.
— "Nightmare? Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Feeling the man's slightly cool lips resting on her forehead, she was also hugged by Mu Huai. At this moment, he was stroking the top of her hair with his big hands soothingly.
Rong Xi finally woke up from the dream, but cried even harder.
She quietly inserted her nails into her palms, and only after she felt real pain did Rong Xi confirm that everything in front of her was real.
"Zhi Yan...Zhi Yan..."
Rong Xifu called him softly again.
"Ok?"
Mu Huai knew that he was about to go to war, and this woman was weaker than before and cried a lot, it couldn't be more normal.
Rong Xi bit her lip, she couldn't drag on any longer.
Whether the time is ripe or not, she will say this to him.
Embarrassing, just embarrassing.
"Zhiyan...Zhiyan...I..."
At this moment, Mu Huai held her delicate and tearful face with both hands, his deep eyes were filled with pity, and he was thinking of saying something to let the woman relax.
- "I...I love you."
Mu Huai was startled, the earballs of the beauty in front of him were already as red as a drop of blood.
After saying that, Rong Xi was extremely ashamed, and curled her petite body back into the quilt again.
Anyway, she finally said this out, as for what Mu Huai thought, she didn't care.
After Mu Huai reacted, a smile gradually formed on his lips, and he put his hand into the quilt again, and pulled the shy little beauty into his arms.
He ordered in a low voice: "I didn't hear you just now, please say it again."
Rong Xi blushed, and refused in a voice like a mosquito: "No... just forget it if you don't hear clearly."
Mu Huai knew that Rong Xi was shy, so he didn't want to force her to say this any more, so he put his thin lips against her ear, and said word by word: "I love you too."
Rong Xi's ears itch softly, although his heart feels like being drenched with honey, he recalls the dream just now.
After waking up, she felt more and more that Mu Huai seemed to be unpredictable about many things.
For example, he knew that she and Huanniang had gone to Hongdu, and he also anticipated the drought in Taizhang three years in advance.
correct.
Rong Xi vaguely remembered that when she moved to the palace because of jealousy and had a conflict with Mu Huai that year, the man seemed to say something.
"I have lived alone for more than thirty years, and you are the only one who has caused trouble."
Thirty years
Wasn't Mu Huai only twenty-two years old at that time
Rong Xi felt more and more in her heart that the dream just now should have happened in real life.
Mu Huai, he seems to be someone who returned to his first life.
—"Husband... There is one thing, can you tell me the truth."
Rong Xi asked him in a low voice.
Mu Huai said, "What's the matter?"
"You... are you a reborn person?"
After the words fell, Mu Huai was silent for a moment.
After a while, Fang looked into the beauty's surprised eyes, and replied in a low voice, "Yes."
There is nothing to hide from this woman. I don't tell her about it because I am afraid that she will be scared because she is timid.
Rong Xi let out a wow, and then cried again.
She asked in a whisper: "Then... are those dreams real?"
Seeing that she was really scared and crying, Mu Huai patted her on the back a little helplessly, and asked in confusion, "What dream?"
Rong Xi sobbed and told the man all the dreams just now.
After she finished speaking, Mu Huai couldn't believe it.
But his tone replied lightly: "It's almost the same, my previous life was roughly like this."
Rong Xi looked at the man's indifferent and handsome face, but sullenness appeared on his face, and asked in a soft voice: "Then you...why don't you take good care of yourself...your body is healthy, why do you spoil yourself so much?"
— "Because in my previous life, I didn't have you by my side."
"Then you can't..."
Mu Huai kissed the woman's soft long hair reassuringly, and said in a gentle and solemn voice, "I won't do it in this life, and I will definitely live a good life for Xi'er in this life."
Rong Xi was gradually enveloped by the man's familiar body temperature, and after listening to his gentle persuasion, she finally closed her eyes with peace of mind.
She murmured back: "Well... I will also take good care of Zhiyan."
*****
Later history books contain:
The sixth year of Chengzhang was in the prime of spring.
Tuoba Yu, the great ruler of the Uganda Kingdom, was the son of Khan at that time. At the same time that Emperor Wu of Qi, Mu Huai, led an army to attack Yan, Yu assisted Emperor Wu in defeating Yan, and divided more than ten cities of Yan Kingdom.
Emperor Wu aspired to the Central Plains, and he also had good relations with the Urchin Kingdom in the western Xinjiang for generations, and the two countries have no war disputes so far.
This year when Mu Huai was on his way back to Bian, Yin Cheng also mentioned to him that the soldiers of the Ugh kingdom are indeed more savage than the soldiers of the Central Plains.
Qi State's victory was largely due to the support of the 100,000 rattan armored soldiers of the Hu State.
Mu Huai nodded lightly, and Tuoba Yu helped him because he and the majesty of the Hu Kingdom had already set their eyes on the cities on the border between the Yan Kingdom and the Hu Kingdom.
The two had been at odds many years ago, and even wanted to kill each other, but now they can sit together peacefully, drinking and talking.
Tuoba Yu has also grown into a handsome and tall grassland warrior.
It's really different.
Mu Huai was in the tent, and asked Tuoba Yu, "How are you and Mu Rao? She sent a letter to the palace, saying she was going back to Qi Guining."
Tuoba Yu didn't know about this. He didn't know when Mu Rao sent a letter to Qi to return to Ning. In the past, the letters she exchanged with Qi would be checked in advance.
Gui Ning? She doesn't just want Gui Ning.
Tuoba Yu replied in a low tone: "I didn't allow her to return to peace."
After hearing this, Mu Huai raised his eyebrows.
He thought that Tuoba Yu had matured a lot, but looking at it now, even though he was taller, he was still the same inside, without any change.
Mu Huai's tone was serious, and he threatened: "If Princess Daqi is wronged in your country, I will take her back anytime."
Tuoba Yu also replied hesitantly: "Don't worry, she won't be wronged."
*
On the day when Mu Huai led his troops back to Bianjing, the sky was bright and clear.
Inside Yongxi Palace, luxurious and luxuriant flowers and trees exude a rich fragrance.
Mu Jue and Mu Chen were already standing at the Xuanhua Gate, quietly waiting for Mu Huai's return.
Prince Mu Jue was seven years old at this time, and Ying Qin Wang Muchen was five years old at this time.
After Mu Huai walked into the palace gate, he saw his two sons standing side by side, waiting for him to come back.
Mu Jue was much calmer than ordinary children, and when he saw Mu Huai, he only gave him a respectful salute.
But Mu Chen was still a child at heart, and hurried towards him with his short legs, and said in a tearful voice, "Father...you are finally back."
Mu Huai was surprised by Mu Chen's sudden closeness.
Because Mu Chen is usually a taciturn child, and he doesn't like to be close to her mother like Mu Jue was when he was a child, so he naturally doesn't want to get close to him.
Both Mu Huai and Rong Xi discovered the strangeness of Mu Chen. He only likes painting and dismantling things, but he is still young, but his painting skills are much better than many famous painters in Bianjing. Mu Chen was only four years old, and it only took one month to paint all the palaces and buildings in Yongxi, and the painting skills and composition were so superb that even the court painters were amazed.
But he doesn't seem to have any feelings for his parents and elder brother, as if he lacks in this regard.
Mu Huai doesn't have big expectations for Mu Chen, he only hopes that he can grow up safely, even if he is different from other children, it doesn't matter.
But now it seems that he and Rong Xi are overthinking.
Mu Chen still cared about him as a father, maybe it was just because he was young that he didn't know how to express his admiration for his parents.
Mu Huai touched Mu Chen's little head with his big hand, but seeing that the little queen he wanted to see was not around, he asked Mu Jue, "Where is your mother queen, why didn't she come to welcome me?"
Mu Jue replied: "Mother... Mother, she fell asleep in Jiaofang Palace."
- "Did you fall asleep?"
It is noon now, and it is said that this woman Rong Xi is very clingy, so she must go to the gate of the palace to meet him.
If she doesn't come now, something must be wrong with her body.
Mu Huaifu asked again with concern: "How is your mother's mother?"
After finishing speaking, he eagerly stepped forward to go to Jiaofang Palace.
What Mu Jue said next made Mu Huai feel relieved.
A smile gradually appeared on his face.
"Father, the queen mother is not sick, but she is pregnant again."
