Chapter 27 Recognizing Both Father and Mother

Sheng Sheng's mood fluctuated today. First, she happily slipped out to find Brother Bamboo, and then she nervously came to "rescue" Sister Oriole.

In the end, he actually recognized a father and a mother.

The little girl gently tugged at her brother's hand, looking rather puzzled and nervous: "Brother, did your parents lose a daughter? Did they become Sheng Sheng's parents because of you? Will they not like Sheng Sheng?"

Uncle Tree God was kind, Auntie Pretty was gentle, and Sheng Sheng wasn't an introverted child; she loved to laugh.

Despite lacking paternal and maternal love since childhood, Sheng Sheng still feels somewhat uneasy.

Why do you want to be her father and mother?

Is it because of my brother?

Xie Yunchuan felt heartbroken listening to this. He had originally planned to arrange for Sheng Sheng to meet Consort Rong as an ordinary child, believing that Consort Rong would definitely like Sheng Sheng because of her personality.

Once Consort Rong has gradually accepted Sheng Sheng's words, he will then tell her the truth.

But now all plans have been disrupted. Sheng Sheng has recognized her father, the Emperor, first, and Consort Rong recognized her child at a glance.

Xie Yunchuan had no choice but to tell Sheng Sheng the truth.

Sheng Sheng fell seriously ill and forgot many things from before. At first, just thinking about the things in front of her would give her a headache.

Now that her health has improved a lot, Xie Yunchuan squatted down, put his hand on her shoulder, and looked at her at eye level: "Shengsheng, there's something your brother has never told you."

Xie Yunchuan rarely looked at her with such seriousness, and Sheng Sheng nodded, listening attentively.

"Brother, you're listening carefully!"

Xie Yunchuan smiled and said, "Do you still remember the story your brother told you before?"

Sheng Sheng thought for a moment: "Is it a story about a little fairy?"

The story of how many magpies circled and chirped on the rooftop on the day the little fairy was born?

"Um."

Xie Yunchuan nodded: "Actually, that little fairy is you."

"Huh?" Sheng Sheng pointed at herself. "It's Sheng Sheng?"

The little girl looked completely bewildered. She stared wide-eyed at it for a long time, but couldn't remember anything.

"Brother, I'm sorry, Sheng Sheng doesn't remember any of this."

The little girl felt a little guilty, but Xie Yunchuan chuckled and comforted her, "You were so young back then, how could you remember?"

The little dumpling let out an "ah," and Xie Yunchuan continued, "I'm sorry, we lost you and made you suffer so much outside."

Xie Yunchuan helped her tuck her stray hairs behind her ear, where a red lotus flower shone brightly in the twilight.

“Not only brother, but Mother has also missed you all these years, and Father has not forgotten you either. When the incident happened and you were framed by villains, you disappeared. We all thought you were…” Xie Yunchuan’s chest was filled with emotions, and after all the twists and turns, he was only left with relief, “Fortunately, brother found you.”

The little dumpling looked at him and silently processed what he had seen.

In other words, her mother is her biological mother, and her father is also her biological father?

Xie Yunchuan, however, thought that her silence was a sign that she knew the truth and that he was blaming her.

This is not surprising. Sheng Sheng has suffered so much, so it's okay to blame him.

It's strange, but he's afraid his sister will distance herself from him because of it.

Xie Yunchuan immediately promised, "Shengsheng, blame your brother if you want, but I will definitely protect you from now on and never lose you again. Please don't ignore your brother, okay?"

No.

Unexpectedly, the expected crying and blame did not occur. Instead, the little dumpling gently wrapped her arms around his neck and said with a smile, "This is not my fault, brother, nor is it my fault, father or mother."

Sheng Sheng believes that no mother or father would abandon their child.

Moreover, she had seen Consort Rong's appearance and knew that her mother must love her very much.

"Sheng Sheng isn't bitter, didn't brother find Sheng Sheng?"

The little girl's soft voice was like a feather, gently falling to the ground.

Xie Yunchuan was extremely surprised, but the little girl smiled brightly and showed no sign of blaming him.

Sheng Sheng hugged him, a little shyly: "But what kind of people are Father and Mother? I've never spent time with Father and Mother before, I'm so shy."

Xie Yunchuan looked at her for a long time, then smiled and picked her up: "It's okay, Shengsheng has plenty of time to get to know them."

"Um!"

The setting sun cast long shadows of the two siblings as they headed towards the Brocade Palace, accompanied by the fragrant flowers along the way.

The bodyguard who had been secretly protecting Sheng Sheng was named Zhui Feng. Just now, the atmosphere was unusual, and Thirteen and Zhui Feng hid in the shadows and did not dare to disturb her.

Looking at the two figures from behind, even the usually taciturn Zhui Feng commented, "Your Highness has finally put one of your worries to rest."

"Yes," Thirteen said with a smile, shaking his head. "Your Highness is much happier now than before."

The two marveled at it for a while.

When the news reached Jinxiu Palace, Lüping knew that after Kunning Palace calmed down, her prince would definitely bring the little princess to Jinxiu Palace to visit Consort Rong, so she ordered people to wait at the door early.

As soon as Xie Yunchuan appeared carrying the little dumpling, apart from those who were taking care of Consort Rong, all the palace servants in Jinxiu Palace knelt down.

"Welcome back to the palace, Your Highness!"

"Welcome back to the palace, Your Highness!"

"Welcome back to the palace, Your Highness!"

They did it three times in a neat and orderly fashion, with such a powerful and impressive display that it left the little dumpling stunned for quite a while.

Hearing the commotion, Lüping, who was tending to Consort Rong at the bedside, rushed out: "This servant greets Your Highness, Second Prince, and Your Highness. We respectfully welcome Your Highness back to the palace!"

Sheng Sheng blinked and whispered to Xie Yunchuan, "Brother, are they talking about Sheng Sheng?"

Xie Yunchuan suppressed a laugh and said, "Mm."

Sheng Sheng waved his hands, urging them to get up: "Get up, get up, don't be so polite."

A huge group of people were kneeling before her; it was quite frightening!

The palace servants all stood up, looking at their little princess with curiosity.

Most of these people are elderly residents of Jinxiu Palace. They know what happened back then and are very curious about what exactly happened.

But as they looked on, their curious gaze turned into one of amazed admiration.

Simply put, their princess is just too adorable!

The little dumpling had been pampered for over a month, and her round face and light pink cheeks made her look even more adorable.

A simple, light blue dress shone like a pearl on her.

Lu Ping curtsied and said, "Your Highness, Her Majesty is still unconscious. Imperial Physician Li has already treated Her Majesty and she is out of danger."

Xie Yunchuan frowned: "Mother Consort is still not awake? Did Imperial Physician Li say anything?"

"Physician Li said that Her Majesty was too excited for a moment, and the rush of blood to her head caused her heart and lungs to become blocked, which is why she fainted. Physician Li gave Her Majesty acupuncture, and her condition has now stabilized. Your Highness need not worry."

"Hmm." Xie Yunchuan finally relaxed his brow and said to Shengsheng, "Let's go in and see Mother Consort."
