"Sister, I have thought it through. This time, on the Queen Mother's birthday, I will give her a big gift no matter what."

Come to think of it, he has never given a gift to the Empress Dowager.

[Brother, you are right! When a grandson wishes his grandmother a happy birthday, the most important thing is the thought. It is the best if the person is there and the gift is there.]

[But brother, what are you going to give to Grandma Huang? ]

Abao was very happy looking at the colorful flowers and willows all over the street.

I just feel like my eyes are not enough.

I like everything I see.

But the Queen Mother may not like it.

After all, she still has the mentality of a child.

Until Emperor Zi'an stopped in front of a small stall and bought a Cuju.

The round Cuju was one size bigger than Po’s head.

Po looked surprised.

[Brother, why did you buy a Cuju? ]

Emperor Zi'an chuckled, "Sister, you may not know that our grandmother and the emperor fell in love because of a Cuju. People are old and miss the memories of the past the most, so I think this gift is the best. What do you think, sister? Am I a smart thief?"

A Bao seemed to see through Emperor Zi'an's thoughts and giggled with his little face puffed up.

[Brother, are you sure you didn't choose Cuju because you couldn't afford any other gifts?]

Emperor Zi'an was embarrassed. "Sister, how come you are so smart?"

A Bao lay on Di Zi'an's shoulder, his big eyes darting around, and suddenly he saw two sneaky people not far away.

They look very much like the two scarred guys who had fought with my brother in the inn before.

[Hey, brother, it seems like someone is following us]

Di Zi'an was stunned and looked back. The busy street was crowded with people, but he didn't see anyone suspicious.

But since my sister said it, she must have seen it.

He was not afraid of someone trying to harm him, but he was afraid of implicating his sister.

Emperor Zian patted Abao, holding the Cuju in his hand, "Don't be afraid, sister. It's getting late. I'll take you back to the palace."

He couldn't let his bad luck affect his precious sister.

After the adult and the child left, two people came out from the corner. They were the two scarred men who were beaten in the inn.

There was also a man in black beside the two of them.

"Boss, that guy ran away! Should we chase him?" Scarface was anxious.

The man in black snorted coldly, "Did you see the girl doll on that boy?"

The two nodded in unison, "I saw it. To be honest, that little girl is so pretty and cute."

The man in black raised his eyebrows, "Keep a close eye on him. If you see that kid again, you must kill him! But don't hurt the child in his arms."

…

Emperor Zi'an returned to Yihe Palace with Abao in his arms and all the toys on his body.

Abao slept until almost noon.

"You are so brave! You dare to steal your sister out of the palace, don't you?"

Emperor Zi'an was sleeping soundly on the table in the living room when Concubine De pulled his ear.

By this time, it was daybreak.

Emperor Zian was still acting hysterical, with two panda eyes, "My Queen, please be gentle, it hurts!"

"If you don't feel pain, you won't learn your lesson!" De Fei was really angry. "Didn't your father send you to suppress the bandits? Instead of suppressing the bandits, you stole your sister."

Di Zi'an's mouth pursed, "It's not a one-day or two-day thing to fight against bandits. Yesterday was the South City Lantern Festival, and I wanted to take my sister out to see it. Mom, I know I was wrong. I will never steal at night next time."

He steals during the day.

"What did you say?"

"Mother..." The emperor's son An Jun's face fell, and he quickly stepped forward to flatter and rub Concubine De's shoulders and legs, "Mother, don't be angry, your son really knows that he was wrong. Look, my sister had a lot of fun last night."

"Hey, mother is also worried about you two. You are used to staying outside the palace, but your sister is still young. The situation outside the palace has been unstable these days, so mother can't help but worry."

Di Zian chuckled, "I know that mother loves us the most. It's my fault that I made her worry this time."

"You didn't encounter any danger outside the palace, did you?"

Emperor Zi'an's heart was beating fast.

Thinking of the two scarred guys in the inn, cough cough.

He absolutely didn't dare mention this to his mother. Being scolded by his mother wouldn't be a big deal, but the main thing was that it would definitely scare her.

A good son only reports good news to his family, not his sorrows.

"Of course not, Mom, don't worry."

Concubine De glared at Emperor Zi'an, and when she heard the sound of Abao waking up from the ear chamber, she went into the ear chamber and fed Abao with breast milk first.

After eating and drinking her fill, Abao held in her arms the little bunny doll that Di Zian bought for her.

Defei changed Abao into clean clothes, and then took Abao and Emperor Zi'an to the Cining Palace.

Today is the Queen Mother's birthday.

Along the way, Concubine De saw Emperor Zi'an holding an exquisite paper box in his hand. She didn't ask much, because she knew that this must be the birthday gift Emperor Zi'an prepared for the Empress Dowager.

Emperor Zi'an walked very fast and soon left Concubine De and Abao behind.

"Hey, isn't this Sister Defei?" Before reaching Cining Palace, Defei saw Concubine Rou walking towards her from a distance.

While stroking the little rabbit, Abao looked out and glanced at Concubine Rou.

She remembered Concubine Rou, the fifth prince's biological mother.

However, because the fifth prince kept an oiran, his scumbag father demoted him to a fiefdom.

Huibin also came over with Concubine Rou.

I heard that the two of them entered the palace together. Because Concubine Rou had a good family background, was flexible and could dance, and had the help of her mother's family, she was promoted to the position of concubine faster than Concubine Hui.

But the two have been good sisters for many years.

"Your servant pays homage to Her Majesty the Virtuous Concubine." Concubine Hui bowed to Her Majesty the Virtuous Concubine.

De Fei smiled slightly, "Get up."

"Sister Defei, the Tenth Princess is so pretty." Concubine Rou looked envious. She had been in the palace for many years, but she only had one child, the Fifth Prince.

Now, the son did not fight for power and made trouble, so the emperor demoted him to a fiefdom.

She is worried at the moment.

She liked children in the first place, and she was very happy when she saw the Tenth Princess.

"Sister Defei, can I hug the Tenth Princess?"

"Of course." Defei placed Abao in Concubine Rou's arms.

This is the first time that Abao comes into close contact with Concubine Rou.

Not shy either.

Waving his little arms, his big eyes looked at her intently.

Concubine Rou slowly lowered her brows and looked at Abao, "The Tenth Princess has such big eyes like Concubine De. Hey, seeing the Tenth Princess so young, I think of my son."

There was a hint of coldness in Concubine Rou's eyes.

At the banquet that day, the emperor took the princess to the Fifth Prince's residence, which led to the accident of his son.

"The Emperor has so many children, but I have never seen him care so much about any of them. After the fifth child was born, the Emperor only held him once.

But I heard that the Emperor has been going to Yihe Palace to see the Tenth Princess every day recently.

He is so kind to the Tenth Princess."
