Qingtian's attitude gave Princess Rui a glimmer of hope.
Sister Ye asked carefully, "Princess Rui is so kind to you, why don't you let her hug you on sunny days?"
After hearing this, Qingtian immediately struggled to get into Mrs. Ye's arms.
Seeing the sunny day resisting so much, the adults were at a loss.
The child had already experienced a change of adoptive parents once before.
Now that she has finally adapted to her new identity, she is suddenly asked to integrate into another family.
Even if the other party comes with great sincerity, it is difficult for children to accept it for a while.
"Let's forget about it today. Don't force the child." Seeing Qingtian like this, Princess Rui was doubly tormented. "Your Highness, let's go back first!"
Prince Rui felt a little regretful about his impulsive behavior just now.
It seemed that Qingtian seemed even more repulsed and afraid of him.
He sighed and stood up and said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you back first, and then we’ll go into the palace.
"My brother the Emperor already knows about this. He asked me to find some time to go to the palace and tell him what's going on!"
When Mrs. Ye heard this, her hand holding Qingtian trembled.
She always felt that Prince Rui's words seemed to be meant specifically for her.
After sending the two away, Mrs. Ye carried Qingtian back to the room.
At first, Qingtian just hugged her quietly without saying a word.
After a long time, Qingtian suddenly asked in a low voice: "Mom, did I do something wrong today? Have I become a bad child?"
Mrs. Ye was stunned when she heard this, and quickly hugged her and said firmly: "Of course not!
"Why would Qingtian think so?
"Don't even mention a child like you. Even adults like us don't know how to deal with this kind of thing.
"But you only need to know one thing, everything we do is because we love you so much.
"No one wants you to get hurt, you know?"
Qingtian didn't say anything, but nodded gently in her arms.
Seeing that Qingtian's mood had stabilized, Sister Ye tentatively said, "In fact, even if you find your biological parents, you won't lose them. It's just that you have two more people who love and pamper you.
"Qingtian really doesn't want his biological parents. Have you ever thought about what his biological parents are like?"
Of course I have thought about it.
Every time she was bullied by the children in the village and was called a bastard without a father or a mother;
Every time when I don’t have enough food and go to bed hungry;
Especially when I was beaten by Shan Lao Da and his wife and felt like I was going to die...
Qingtian would also wonder what kind of people his biological parents were.
Why don't they want to...
But since being adopted by the Ye family, Qingtian has never thought about these things again.
Because Boss Ye and Sister Ye were already better and more competent than she had originally imagined their biological parents to be.
She no longer needs to fantasize about her biological parents, because she feels that there will be no better parents than Boss Ye and Sister-in-law Ye.
But today she found out that her biological parents didn't abandon her, but were actually trying hard to find her.
Qingtian still felt a little better.
It turns out that I am not the child that my parents don’t want.
It seems like there has always been a gap in my heart, and now it has finally been filled.
This is a shortcoming that cannot be made up for no matter how much love Ye Lao Da and his wife give them.
But Qingtian didn't want to leave the Ye family at all, let alone leave Boss Ye and Sister-in-law Ye.
When Boss Ye returned home and heard what happened that morning, he rolled up his sleeves in anger and said, "If I were home, I would have rushed over to take Qingtian back."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ye slapped him on the arm and said, "Just shut up!
"Haven't you heard that even the Emperor knows about this?
"We don't know how long the sunny days can last!
"Do you still have the guts to snatch someone from the Emperor?"
Boss Ye immediately lost his temper and sat down on the couch in a dejected manner. He rubbed his face vigorously and sighed, "This day after day is more torturous than torture."
At the same time, Prince Rui had arrived at the palace.
"Royal brother!"
"Please sit down!" The emperor was waiting for him in the pavilion of the imperial garden and asked someone to give him a seat.
Prince Rui thanked him and sat down.
The emperor looked at him and said, "You look so tired, and your eyes are red. Didn't you sleep last night?"
When asked this by the emperor, Prince Rui realized belatedly that he had experienced too many emotional ups and downs in the past two days and was really exhausted.
This kind of tiredness comes from the bones and cannot be easily relieved.
"First I lost my wife, and then I suddenly found my daughter. The past two days have been more than what I've experienced in the past few years."
"I called you here just to ask what happened to the child?
"Didn't you say the child died at birth? Your wife has been heartbroken for several years and has been in poor health ever since.
"How did I find this again suddenly? I'm almost confused.
"Could it be that you two have been deceived by someone?"
Although these words were full of concern, Prince Rui still felt wary when he heard them.
Fortunately, Qingtian is a girl, so she shouldn't arouse the emperor's vigilance.
So Prince Rui raised his hand, pinched his brows, and told the whole story again.
The emperor sighed after hearing this and said, “I never thought that things back then would be so complicated.
"This is truly a coincidence. Every single step fits together so perfectly. I can only say it's God playing tricks on us!"
After sighing, the emperor said, "Fortunately, the child has been found. Your wife's worries should be all gone."
Prince Rui thought to himself, now that the old ones have been removed and the new ones have been added, it's really a headache.
"Now that the child has been found, the proper ceremonial standards are naturally necessary.
"You are my only brother, and your daughter is the same as mine.
"I'll instruct the Ministry of Rites to prepare everything according to the princess's instructions. How about that?"
"I dare not!" Prince Rui quickly stood up and refused, then smiled bitterly, "The main thing is that the child doesn't recognize us at all now. This is not a matter of urgency. It seems that we have to take it step by step."
"I don't recognize you two?" The emperor was very confused by this. "I heard that the family that adopted her is just a commoner, right?"
"I guess so!" Prince Rui nodded, "But right now it's not a problem with her adoptive parents, it's the child who can't accept it right now.
"I hugged her in the morning and cried so hard that I almost fainted.
"Neither of us could bear to see the child suffer like this, so we had to take it slow."
The emperor really couldn't understand Prince Rui's thoughts.
"Brother Emperor, it's best not to make this matter public for now. I will find a way to resolve it."
"Alright, I don't understand what you're worried about, but I'll send someone to tell the Ministry of Rites about this and ask them to prepare first.
"Whenever you need it, just tell me."
