After Xie Wanqing left, Jing Yang lost interest in shopping and returned to the post station early.
Yuan Musheng also returned to the princess's mansion with Yuan Xuan and Yuan Nan'an.
When Yuan Zhao came back, he saw Yuan Xuan and Yuan Nan'an practicing sword in the yard, while Yuan Musheng was sitting aside, wondering what he was thinking about.
Yuan Zhao rarely saw Yuan Musheng like this, and he felt suspicious.
At this time, Yuan Nan'an also noticed that they had returned, and he stopped the sword in his hand and ran towards Yuan Zhao.
"Mother!"
She threw herself into Yuan Zhao's arms and saw Yuan Heng, who had returned holding Yuan Zhizhi. She blinked and asked, "Third uncle, why are you here again?"
Yuan Heng raised his eyebrow and snorted, "What do you mean by again?"
"Your uncle can come, but I can't?"
Yuan Nanan stuck out his tongue, knowing that he had offended this big Buddha again, but he still couldn't help but mutter in a low voice,
"My uncle is very busy with official duties and doesn't come here often..."
If Yuan Heng hadn't been holding Yuan Zhizhi, he would have grabbed Yuan Nan'an.
So he shifted his focus and looked at Yuan Musheng who was walking towards him. He exclaimed, "Oh!" "Isn't this our eldest son? I haven't seen you much in such a long time. I thought you had gone to become the emperor's grandson in place of Yuan Xuan!"
Yuan Musheng was stunned when he heard this and looked at Yuan Xuan.
Yuan Zhao pulled Yuan Nan'an, not expecting Yuan Heng to say these words.
Although she had joked with her brother and sister-in-law before, it was because the two families had a close relationship and she had never said such words in front of Yuan Xuan.
Yuan Zhao also understood that Yuan Cheng’s training of Yuan Musheng was more to pave the way for Yuan Xuan.
Yuan Xuan was the legitimate son of the crown prince, so his status was always different.
If someone heard what Yuan Heng said, wouldn't it provoke conflict between the two of them?
But Yuan Xuan just tilted his head and looked at Yuan Heng, "Uncle, what are you talking about? Isn't Brother Mu Sheng also the emperor's grandson? He also calls the emperor's grandfather grandpa."
Yuan Heng spoke faster than he thought, and he regretted what he said. However, he stiffened his neck and asked again, "Aren't you afraid that he will be liked by your father more than you are?"
Yuan Xuan didn't care, "Father likes Brother Mu Sheng, but that doesn't mean that Father doesn't like me!"
After hearing Yuan Xuan's words, Yuan Heng fell silent, wondering what he was thinking about.
Yuan Zhizhi in his arms reached out and pinched his face lightly.
[Uncle, Zhizhi really likes you too!]
Yuan Qiyu heard Zhizhi's thoughts and nodded.
Although the third uncle has a sharp tongue, he is not a bad person!
Yuan Heng snorted and pinched Yuan Zhizhi's little face.
Who cares if a little thing like you likes it!
[But Su!] Zhizhi's thoughts suddenly changed, and her big eyes met Yuanheng's, staring at him with piercing eyes, [How dare you fight with your uncle for a room!]
Room? What the hell?
Yuan Heng thought for three seconds before realizing that Zhizhi was talking about the "throne".
He's just a kid, but he's meddling in so many things, even caring about whether to fight for the throne.
[Hold on and grab a room! If you grab a room, Zhizhi won't be tired of it anymore! Mom won't be tired of it either! And everyone will be dead!]
Yuan Zhizhi spoke very seriously.
Yuan Zhao laughed helplessly, his words were rough but his point was true.
She glanced at Yuan Heng. What was Yuan Heng thinking?
Yuan Zhizhi shook her head again. "The room isn't good at all. Living in Grandpa Huang's cold house every day is so boring!"
Yuan Heng lowered his eyes and finally couldn't help laughing.
He scratched Zhizhi's nose and said nothing.
…
That night, Yuan Zhao called Fushan, who had gone out with a few people during the day, and asked him what had happened.
Fushan reported everything one by one, including what happened when he met Xie Wanqing.
After listening to this, Yuan Zhao roughly understood the reason of the matter. She came to Yuan Musheng's yard and knocked on the door lightly.
"Come in."
Yuan Zhao pushed open the door and saw Yuan Musheng reading a book at the table.
Seeing her come in, Yuan Musheng put down the book and stood up, "Mom, why are you here?"
Yuan Zhao stood at the door and didn't come in. He just said, "The moonlight outside is beautiful. Would you like to walk with me?"
Yuan Musheng nodded and went to the garden with her.
The mother and son were walking in the garden. Yuan Zhao smiled and said, "You've been busy these days. I haven't had much time to talk to you."
Yuan Musheng supported her, his expression showing some fatigue, "It's my son's fault. I've been spending too much time with my uncle lately."
Yuancheng trusts him very much and now lets him complete some things.
Yuan Cheng saw that he was too tired, so he asked him to accompany Helian Yu and Jing Yang during this period, so that he had time to rest.
Yuan Zhao turned her head to look at him. Even under the moonlight, she could see the faint dark circles under Yuan Musheng's eyes. She felt a little distressed and sighed.
"I heard from your uncle that you are interested in taking Prime Minister Dou as your teacher?"
Yuan Musheng nodded, "I have learned a lot from my uncle these days, but I also feel my own shortcomings, so I want to learn more from Prime Minister Dou."
"However, it depends on whether Prime Minister Dou is willing..."
Yuan Zhao thought that it shouldn't be a big deal, as Prime Minister Dou had already seen Mu Sheng's abilities before.
However, if Mu Sheng became Dou Shoufu's disciple, he would probably be even busier.
Thinking of this, Yuan Zhao comforted him,
"Sheng'er, you don't need to be so tired. Now our family's life is much better, and mother can still support you..."
Yuan Musheng smiled and lowered his eyes, "Mom, I am your eldest son. How can I rely on you for everything?"
"Even though I have my mother and my uncle, the world is unpredictable. What if one day no one can be relied upon?"
He raised his head and looked at Yuan Zhao, his eyes full of determination.
"My son wants to be his own supporter, and also the supporter of his mother and siblings. This is what he wants, and he doesn't feel tired."
Yuan Zhao understood Yuan Musheng's thoughts.
After falling from the clouds to the abyss and then returning to his original position, he naturally became more alert and understood the importance of relying on himself.
This is something that no one can replace.
Even though she is a mother, she will grow old and die one day.
Yuan Musheng wants to rely on himself, so naturally he wants to do his best with his own abilities.
Yuan Zhao stopped at a pavilion on the lake, looking at the rippling water below her feet, and then she asked again,
"What about your marriage? What are your thoughts?"
