Chapter 569 Loyalty
However, these things were carried into the Prince of Teng's Mansion, the Marquis of Linjiang's Mansion and the Minister of War's Mansion for a tour before being brought into the palace.
The two carriages stopped in front of the gate of Prince Teng's Palace. The person in charge of escorting the rewards was a confidant of Prince Yuzhang, who directly ordered people to unload the boxes and carry them into the palace.
The Prince of Yuzhang was in the mansion, bragging to Wei Mingzhu, who was still in confinement after giving birth, about how she had cheated people in Dongliang. When the boxes were brought in, the Prince of Yuzhang said, "See if there's anything you like, I'll give it to you."
All the treasures that could enter the Southern Liang Emperor’s storehouse were peerless treasures, and each one was so stunning that one couldn’t take their eyes off it.
The news that Prince Yuzhang had two large boxes of treasures quickly reached the ears of Prince Teng and his wife. Both of them were curious about where these things came from and dared not help but ask.
When Prince Teng learned that it was a reward from the Emperor of Southern Liang, his eyes went dark.
Could the things awarded by the Southern Liang Emperor be brought back to the capital in such a high-profile manner? If this were to be reported to the emperor by someone with ulterior motives, the Prince Teng's Mansion would be accused of secretly communicating with the Southern Liang.
Although the emperor is not a foolish ruler, it is better to be safe than sorry.
No matter how good these things are, you can't accept them.
Prince Teng ordered the box to be collected and quickly carried into the palace to apologize to the emperor.
At the palace gate, he met Marquis Linjiang and the Minister of War.
Although they didn't know why the Prince of Jingbei stayed in Dongliang for more than half a year and helped the Prince of Nanliang to seize power, their son was helping the Prince of Jingbei and did not deserve such a heavy reward from the Emperor of Nanliang. It would be better to hand these things over to the emperor.
The three of them carried the box into the imperial study. "My son has been mischievous and ignorant. I hope the emperor can show some mercy."
The emperor knew that Prince Yuzhang and Chu Yang had also gone to Dongliang, but the emperor really couldn't think of what serious work the three of them could do in Dongliang.
If Prince Yuzhang and Chu Yang knew about this, they would be so angry that they would vomit blood.
They were able to make everything happen in Dongliang, but in the eyes of the emperor, they were still useless, which was really discouraging.
Prince Teng and his men handed these things over to him with great fear and trepidation, but they would feel uneasy if the emperor refused to accept them.
The emperor said, "You are loyal to me, I accept these."
Prince Teng and his men immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The emperor then instructed Eunuch An, "Go to the storehouse and pick out a box for each of them as a reward, plus an additional reward of 10,000 taels."
Seeing that Prince Teng brought back a reward that was ten times smaller, Prince Yuzhang felt very disappointed.
His ten thousand taels of gold.
His hard-earned money.
Prince Yuzhang wanted to protest, but before he could open his mouth, he was suppressed by Princess Teng, "Don't let your father beat you up just after returning to the capital."
Having not been beaten for more than half a year, Prince Yuzhang was a little uncomfortable with the situation.
He should go see the child.
That little thing is quite cute.
Inside the room, Chen Wan leaned against the large welcoming pillow, looking towards the beaded curtain for the umpteenth time. Xie Jingyu had been in the palace for such a long time, why hadn't he returned yet...
I won’t really get beaten, will I?
There was a sound of footsteps, and Shanhu said, "The prince is back."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Xie Jingyu through the bead curtain.
Walked in.
No one got beaten.
When Xie Jingyu came over, he saw Shen Wan looking at him with a hint of disappointment in his eyes. Xie Jingyu said, "Do you really want the emperor to spank me?"
Shen Wan snorted, "You asked for it."
Xie Jingyu had nothing to say.
He sat down beside the bed, and Shen Wan asked, "Father didn't spank you, so what did he say?"
Xie Jingyu twitched his lips and didn't want to say anything.
Shanhu Yinchuan went out with a tactful look.
Shen Wan stared at Xie Jingyu questioningly.
Xie Jingyu looked melancholy, "If I let you get pregnant again within three years, I will be useless as a husband..."
It was too easy for her to get pregnant. As long as they had sex, there was no guarantee that she wouldn't get pregnant.
Shen Wan said, "Then we can only live in different rooms for three years."
Xie Jingyu, “…”
Three years without a room...
She's been a vegetarian for eight months, and she doesn't know how she's going to endure the next month and a half. And she wants him not to sleep with her for three years?
Xie Jingyu's back teeth itched, "I think you want to kill me."
How can it be so easy to get pregnant? This is giving me a headache.
After the wet nurse finished feeding the child, she brought him to Chen Wan.
The baby weighs 7.6 jin, which is really not light. He looks pink and tender, and is much bigger than Moerran'er when she was born.
His eyebrows and eyes look even more like Xie Jingyu.
Chen Wan hoped that Xie Jingyu would come back before the child was born. She didn't know if the child heard her thoughts, so he stayed in her belly for another half a month and only gave birth after Xie Jingyu came back.
Shen Wan touched the child's hand, feeling extremely happy.
A burst of "Yi Yi Oh Oh" sounds spread outside.
Two wet nurses brought Moer and Raner over.
As soon as the two little guys entered the house, they started clamoring to get out of bed. Mo'er could already walk very steadily, but Ran'er was still a little shaky.
Mo'er walked forward, shaking his body. When he saw Xie Jingyu, he stopped.
Um.
Xie Jingyu came back last night, but Mo'er was asleep. When he woke up, Xie Jingyu had entered the palace again. The father and son only met now.
When Xie Jingyu left Beijing, Mo'er was only two months old and had completely forgotten about his biological father.
He looked at Xie Jingyu with his dark eyes, then walked to the bed, sat on the bed with disdain for Xie Jingyu, and stroked his butt with his hand.
Xie Jingyu, “…”
Seeing this, Shen Wanle was overwhelmed.
Xie Jingyu hugged Mo'er and sat him in his arms, "I am your father."
Mo'er can say the word "daddy".
Shen Wan taught him, the princess taught him, and the wet nurse also taught him every day.
Mo'er would have known how to shout a long time ago.
I never knew what a daddy was, but now I finally understand.
The little guy looked at Xie Jingyu, then at Chen Wan, who smiled and said, "Call me daddy."
Mo'er didn't shout, but Ran'er did.
Well, Ran'er was lying on the bed, looking at his brother. Shen Wanrang called him daddy, and the little guy didn't even think about it, and said to his brother, "Daddy..."
Shen Wan, “…”
Xie Jingyu, “…”
Daddy heard it.
But it wasn't him who was calling out.
The mood of a certain master...
He stretched out his arm and held Ran'er in his arms.
Mo'er just watched quietly. Ran'er was born brave and not afraid of people. She directly slapped her own father's face, which was so infuriating that it made both humans and gods hate her.
The wet nurse was afraid that Ran'er would scratch Xie Jingyu's face. The little lady's nails grew very fast and it would hurt if they scratched someone.
But could Xie Jingyu still let his daughter's little arms and hands be scratched?
In the past, he had only sat on Shen Wan's thighs, with the two children sitting on each side, and there was a younger one on the bed. The mood of the certain man was indescribably good.
The two children couldn't sit still and started to make a fuss about getting down. Xie Jingyu put them on the ground and let them run away by themselves.
Having been away from Beijing for too long, Xie Jingyu just wanted to spend some time with Chen Wan, but Chen Wan had just given birth, and people came to see her and the child one after another. Xie Jingyu couldn't stay in the inner room, so he had to go to the study obediently. After all, both of his eyes were black, and it was inconvenient for him to see guests.
Except for Wei Mingzhu who was still in confinement after childbirth, and Xie Zhiyao and Yun Miao who were pregnant, everyone who could come came to see Chen Wan and the child.
