Song Zijin's face was stained with a smile, and he lowered his head and caressed his abdomen.
How could she have imagined that one day, she would be with Sikong Yu day and night, drink tea and play the piano, and give birth to a son and a half for Sikong Yu.
Fortunately, Jun Lingyun was a wise king and tolerant of others. That was why Sikong Yu and their little family had a place to live.
Fortunately, Chu Yunxi gave her the health-preserving formula, which enabled her to realize her dream as soon as possible and give her something to rely on for the rest of her life.
Jun Lingyun and Chu Yunxi have just returned to the palace today, and they must have many things to deal with. She should go to the palace to visit the Queen some other time.
In the palace, Xiaolian couldn't stay in the room any longer, so she simply went to the entrance of Fanghua Palace to wait. She walked around for countless times.
Finally she saw Jun Lingyun and Chu Yunxi's sedan chair. She hurried forward and shouted happily:
"Queen, you are finally back, woo hoo."
As soon as she cried, she saw Jun Lingyun sitting next to Chu Yunxi, and she was so frightened that she quickly stopped talking.
She actually forgot about the emperor and quickly knelt down to salute.
"My servant pays homage to the Emperor."
Jun Lingyun only hummed in response.
Seeing Xiaolian weeping with joy, Chu Yunxi knew that her two children must be fine, and her heart suddenly felt more at ease.
She stretched out her hand from the sedan chair and touched Xiaolian's head.
"How old are you, and you still love to cry so much? Am I back?"
Xiaolian chased the sedan while wiping her tears and said:
"Yes, I will stop crying. I will go back to announce the good news first."
Xiaolian said and ran away happily again. She knew that Su Yan and others must be as anxious as she was.
"The Crown Princess, the Crown Princess, the Emperor and the Queen are back and have arrived at Fanghua Palace."
"Very good."
Su Yan hurriedly stood up to greet her. Aunt Hao and the wet nurse followed closely behind, holding the child in their arms. Chan'er also looked at each other and smiled at Xiaolian and stood behind.
As soon as they arrived at the palace gate, Jun Lingyun and Chu Yunxi had already stepped in.
"Welcome Your Majesty, the Empress returns to the palace."
Everyone in Fanghua Hall fell to their knees.
Chu Yunxi's big eyes saw Su Yan at the front and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.
"Cousin? When did you come? Get up quickly, everyone."
"Cousin, please leave me alone."
Su Yan stood up and quickly called Aunt Hao and the nanny to come forward.
"Come quickly, let the emperor and the empress see the little prince and the little princess."
Aunt Hao and the wet nurse came forward with the children in their arms. The two children had drank enough milk and were neither crying nor fussing. However, they had been looking at Chu Yunxi with their clear eyes since they saw her.
Chu Yunxi's voice was choked with sobs.
"Yu'er, Yue'er."
After not seeing each other for half a month, the two children have grown so much that she can no longer recognize them.
Xiao Yu'er and Xiao Yue'er suddenly opened their mouths and smiled sweetly, making little milky sounds in their mouths:
"Ah, ah."
Chu Yunxi's tears rolled down uncontrollably when she heard the cute milky voice.
I touched this one and kissed that one excitedly, not knowing which one to hug first.
In the blink of an eye, her children have been born for more than a month, and they are all smiling.
But she couldn't even live a full month. As a mother, how could she not blame herself.
Xiaolian also wiped her tears.
"Your Majesty, the little prince and the little princess are calling you queen mother?"
Chu Yunxi was amused by her again. How could a child who was just over a month old call her mother?
Seeing Chu Yunxi's excited and helpless look, Jun Lingyun felt distressed and reached out to wipe her tears.
"Xi'er, raise your arms."
Chu Yunxi smiled even more heartily when she saw Jun Lingyun doing the same action as an old hen protecting her young.
"Ah, ah."
Xiao Yu'er and Xiao Yue'er seemed to be urging their mother to go faster, and they waved their little hands a few times.
Chu Yunxi raised her arms and waited. Jun Lingyun carefully picked up Xiao Yu'er and shook her gently.
"Our Yu'er is a little heavier."
As he said this, he put Xiao Yu'er into Chu Yunxi's arms.
Naturally, Xiao Yue'er also received the same treatment.
Chu Yunxi held a treasure in each hand and kissed her several times, which made Jun Lingyun feel itchy in her heart.
He also stretched out his fingers and touched the little faces of the two children. They were as tender and soft as hard-boiled eggs.
This soft and waxy little guy is his and Xi'er's child, which always feels a bit unreal.
"Xi'er, you must be tired. Why don't I hold you for a while?"
Chu Yunxi looked at Jun Lingyun with a smile, without criticizing him, and put the children into Jun Lingyun's arms again.
Xiao Yu'er and Xiao Yue'er hadn't seen them for many days, and they didn't recognize each other. They were obedient in anyone's arms. This made their hearts turn to water.
Chu Yunxi remembered that Su Yan was still here, and hurriedly turned around to see her, and saw that Su Yan was also in tears.
"Cousin, thank you, thank you for helping me take care of my two children."
How could Chu Yunxi still not know that during the days when she was not in the palace, her cousin must have been worried and moved into her Fanghua Palace to guard Xiao Yuer and Xiao Yuer for her.
Chu Yunxi hugged Su Yan, her gratitude beyond words.
If she hadn't had such a good family to back her up, how could she have left her two children behind and traveled thousands of miles away?
Su Yan smiled and patted Chu Yunxi on the back.
"Thank you for coming back safely. You don't know how worried we are about you."
"emperor."
Qing Feng suddenly interrupted.
"All the civil and military officials are waiting for you in the court. The prince has sent someone to invite you to come."
The prince sent someone to invite him? Can't stand it anymore? Chu Yunxi looked at Jun Lingyun, and she knew why the ministers were so anxious.
Jun Lingyun's face did not change as he gently put down the child in his arms.
"Xi'er, I'll go there."
Chu Yunxi nodded, presumably, since Jun Lingyun did this, he must have thought of a countermeasure.
However, as soon as Jun Lingyun stepped out, the two children's mouths dropped and they started crying.
Jun Lingyun paused. He did not expect that the two little guys would be so dependent on him. He could not move forward for a while.
Chu Yunxi quickly went to coax him.
"Good boy, stop crying. The Queen is here, and the Queen is accompanying Yu'er and Yue'er."
Jun Lingyun finally calmed down and stepped out. Some things must be resolved sooner or later.
Above the court, the ministers who had daughters of appropriate age at home all held their breath in their hearts.
If this matter is settled like this, wouldn't this court become the sole proprietor of the Chu family in the future?
The Chu family father and son received the emperor's favor and returned home to reunite with their families. They were not here, which made it easier for them to talk behind their backs.
"Then General Chu and Junior General Chu, could it be that they used merit to force the emperor to take a poisonous oath, right?"
"The Chu family also went too far. Back then, when the Xiao family was at its peak and Concubine Xiao doted on the harem, there was no reason not to allow the emperor to have concubines. The Chu family really dared to think so!"
"That's what I'm talking about. How can the Queen be so jealous? She can't tolerate it even in a harem. How can we spread the branches of the royal family?"
