Wen Ranran looked at Emperor Rongcheng's face and thought that he had the final say.
"Um... I met someone in the Royal Garden today!"
"who?"
"Xia...Xia Youlin!" Wen Ranran hesitated but said it anyway.
Wen Ranran always felt a little unbearable when she thought of Xia Youlin's thin body and bright eyes that she saw in the Imperial Garden today.
Sure enough, as soon as the name came out, the emperor's face instantly turned cold, and he even felt a little unspeakably uncomfortable because he remembered the past.
"That child, shouldn't he stay in a Buddhist temple?"
Wen Ranran whispered: "The mother just brought him back two days ago. After all, he is... a descendant of the King of Shu. What's more, the child doesn't know anything!"
The emperor frowned, obviously not knowing how to deal with Xia Youlin.
"Do you want to plead for him?" The emperor looked at Wen Ranran.
Wen Ranran was a little hesitant. She looked at Emperor Rongcheng and whispered: "I can understand your Majesty's mood, but this child's biological mother is just a dancing girl. Although King Xian is his biological father, because of his mother's background, he has never
Don't worry about the other party even a little bit..."
"This child... has been raised in a Buddhist temple. Everyone in the palace looks down on him... The child can grow up to be so big, and be so smart and polite. I really don't want to let such a talented person be humiliated..."
Wen Ranran whispered.
Emperor Rongcheng smiled bitterly, thinking of the son he almost watched grow up.
He once taught him horse riding, archery, reading and writing, but in the end... he raised a son for someone else.
Thinking of this, Emperor Rongcheng still couldn't help feeling uncomfortable in his heart.
"If Your Majesty is willing, I would like to raise him in the Prince's Mansion!" Wen Ranran whispered.
The emperor was stunned.
"The Prince's Mansion is outside the palace, relatively close to the Imperial College... Under the influence of his ears and eyes, and with the careful teachings of Prince Jiang and His Royal Highness Prince Wen, I am sure he will make great achievements in the future!" Wen Ranran whispered, "Although I cannot treat him as my own.
Raise a son, but you will also teach him etiquette, justice, integrity, and loyalty to the emperor and the people..."
Wen Ranran's voice was low, with a hint of unspeakable tenderness.
In fact, Wen Ranran couldn't explain why she wanted to help Xia Youlin, but looking at the child's clever and intelligent appearance, Wen Ranran seemed to have seen herself when she was a child.
"Go! I agreed!"
Emperor Rongcheng said in a low voice.
The next day, Wen Ranran directly took Xia Youlin back to the prince's residence.
Xia Youlin was held by Wen Ranran's hand, as if he felt warmth that he had never felt before.
This aunt took her out from the square palace and the shabby Buddhist temple. That startling glimpse in the dark night was like the light that opened up his life.
"This side is your courtyard, and behind it is the Imperial Study Room. After every morning, a guard will personally take you to the Imperial College to study!"
Wen Ranran said while introducing the terrain of the Prince's Mansion to Xia Youlin.
However, when I walked to the main hall, I found that several people seemed to be sitting there.
It was Du Fantian and Miao Lianhua who came from Miao territory!
Chi Sheng was still cute and well-behaved, with a rosy complexion. He was much better than his frail appearance before. When he saw this, he looked at Xia Youlin curiously.
"Hey, the princess is here!" Du Fantian laughed.
Wen Ranran smiled slightly and said, "We haven't seen you for a long time. How are you? I see that Chi Sheng's body is much better."
"Sister Ran!" Chi Sheng's little head came over, and she was wearing a hat with rabbit ears, looking cute and well-behaved.
The two teenagers looked at each other curiously.
Wen Ranran's eyes lit up. She and Xia Lishuang were usually very busy people. At first, she was worried that Xia Youlin would be bored by herself. Now Du Chisheng came and the two children were playing together.
