Chapter 184 The Delicate Little Emperor Is So Unruly (65)
Xing Chen turned his head and looked at the child in Lu Youshi's arms.
A small pink and white ball, with a pair of big black eyes, was looking curiously at the yoke on his head.
He didn't cry or make a fuss and was very well-behaved. One could tell from his features that he was Xiao Shen's child.
Lu Youshi held the child's small hand and explained, "It was only after my husband left that I realized I was pregnant."
"It's so hard for you to raise a child alone, why didn't you tell us?"
Lu Youshi lowered her eyes to hide the myriad emotions in her eyes.
"I have some selfish motives, and I want to tell the Queen Mother later."
"Are you worried that the Queen Mother will snatch the child from you? Don't be afraid. You can stay in the palace with the child and accompany him to grow up."
Lu Youshi squatted down holding the child and gently touched the words "No Regrets" on the tombstone with her fingertips.
She shook her head.
"His last wish was to stay here forever. As long as he's here, I won't go anywhere."
Xing Chen looked at her thin back and remained speechless for a long time.
After a long time, Xing Chen squatted down beside her.
"I came here today just by chance, and I will never come again. Don't tell the Queen Mother about the child. You are the child's mother, and if you don't want to go with him, you two shouldn't be separated."
Lu Youshi looked up at him, both surprised and not surprised by his words.
"Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying this because I'm afraid that this child will be loved by the Queen Mother and pose a threat to my future children. I'm just considering it from a mother's perspective.
Don't worry, life here is poor and it's not easy to raise a child. I will have people send money and things here regularly, and I will also check if you need anything else."
"Last year, when we were sitting here watching the sunrise, he told me that he felt his brother was a very good person. It just took him too long to find you, otherwise, you could have spent more time together.
He is always very good at judging people, and I trust him, so I also trust that you will not harm my child."
Xing Chen glanced at Wen Luo who was standing not far behind him waiting for him.
He thought about it, turned back and said to Lu Youshi: "Sister-in-law, to be honest, I really want to snatch this child away now."
Lu Youshi subconsciously hugged the child tightly and dodged to the side.
"Don't get me wrong. I just can't give birth to a child. My mother and my ministers are almost driving me to death. That's why I have such absurd thoughts."
"Your Majesty is still young, there will always be a chance in the future."
Xing Chen said dejectedly: "No, I really can't get pregnant!"
Lu Youshi thought he had said something wrong and just smiled politely.
"Your Majesty is blessed with great fortune, so you will naturally have many children and grandchildren," she said politely.
Xing Chen: “…”
It's almost like having a belly full of offspring.
Xing Chen looked towards Wen Luo again, and the more he looked, the more he felt that his tall and handsome Regent was really handsome.
Although the appearance of the fragments could never compare to the master's original body, just a little bit of it was enough to make him completely fascinated.
"I will never have children. My only love is a man."
Xing Chen said with pride.
Lu Youshi was stunned.
She was stunned for a long while before she followed Xing Chen's affectionate gaze and looked at the Regent.
"..."
"That's why I want to snatch the child. Only with a child can I shut the ministers up a little."
"..."
"Don't worry, I'm just thinking about it. I won't really snatch the child from you. I'm just saying this to tell you that I will never hurt the child."
The amount of information was too much for Lu Youshi to take in all at once.
Xing Chen gently touched the tombstone with his fist, and said with a smile, just like chatting with brothers: "Amazing, you have a good eye, you know how to judge people, and you know how to choose places."
"Compared to this place, the Imperial Mausoleum is really not that interesting."
"Don't worry, your sister-in-law and the children will not be wronged. I will take good care of them for you."
After he said these words, he patted the tombstone again, as if he was patting Xiao Shen's shoulder.
"I'm leaving now. I probably won't come back again. You have to take care of yourself. The sun rises and sets. We are looking at the same sun."
When walking back, Lu Youshi, holding the child, always fell behind him and Wen Luo.
She kept looking at the child's rosy little face quietly.
Only when they reached the door of the house and Xing Chen said goodbye to her did she take her eyes off the child's face.
"Your Majesty, please take Heng'er back."
Xing Chen saw that her face was very calm and he knew that this was not a decision she made in haste.
"Why?" he asked again.
“In fact, I never thought about keeping Heng’er by my side forever.
He looks so much like you. If I insist on keeping him, he will be just like you were before, stuck in a village forever.
There is no mother who doesn't want her children to have a bright future."
Xing Chen touched Xiao Heng's little face with his fingertips and looked at Lu Youshi.
"Are you sure?"
Lu Youshi nodded firmly: "Sure."
Xing Chen put down his hand, stood there thinking for a while and said: "I will ask Kyoto to send a wet nurse over to live with you and let the child get familiar with her. It will also give you time to think about it. If you still make the same decision later, I will send someone to pick up the child."
"it is good."
After saying goodbye to Lu Youshi, the two of them slowly walked down the mountain together.
There was no one on the mountain path. After walking in silence for a while, Xing Chen asked anxiously, "Uncle, don't you have any questions for me?"
Wen Luo took a few quick steps, turned around, looked at him, and smiled at him.
"Didn't His Majesty tell me a long time ago? You are not Xiao Shen, you are my little fox."
A warm current swept through Xing Chen's heart, and his eyes felt a little sore.
Wenluo trusts him so much.
He walked forward step by step, put his arms around Wen Luo's neck, and rested his head on his shoulder.
"The rumor that Queen Dowager Zhao had twins was true. The one who was sent away was the older brother who was born first. Queen Dowager Zhao had been looking for him all these years. It was not until last year when Xiao Shen was poisoned and didn't have much time left that they finally found the older brother."
Wen Luo hugged Xing Chen tightly in his arms and patted his back soothingly.
“But they don’t know that the brother is no longer his brother, and the real brother has been killed by bad people.
Later, a fox who was looking for his lover took on his brother's appearance, avenged him, and took his identity. "
Xing Chen stood up from Wen Luo's arms, looked up at Wen Luo, and their eyes met. There were some stars in his eyes.
"Wen Luo, let me introduce you to your little fox again. His real name is - Xing Chen."
"The moon is setting and the stars are sinking."
"I found you, Wen Luo, please stay with me for the rest of your life."
Wen Luo hugged him again and kissed his temples again and again.
No matter how bizarre what Xing Chen said was, he was willing to believe it.
"Xing Chen, in the next life, the next life, and every life after that, you must find me."
Xing Chen hugged his waist tightly, "Okay."
The next day, Xing Chen and Wen Luo got up early in the dark and sat on the embankment. The two of them snuggled together and watched the red sun slowly rising from the horizon and the surging river rushing away.
The scenery here is as beautiful as a painting.
After leaving the riverside town, Xingchen stopped walking and stopping.
He took Wen Luo with him and rushed to Taozhai Village where Lin Xingchen grew up.
