Chapter 6 Could it be that I am hallucinating?
The thief was caught and she also had the identity of a little princess.
Yuanruan slept very comfortably this time.
It was not until noon that she yawned and hummed a few times.
A pair of soft hands picked her up, and Yuanruan opened her confused eyes. It turned out to be a beautiful palace maid. The other party not only picked her up, but also undressed her.
Yuanruan looked inside again and found two buckets of hot water in the tent.
There were several small pieces of cloth placed on the table next to it.
Yuanruan couldn't help but sigh with the system:
[Wow, wow, wow, I have made it. I can live a life where I just stretch out my hand for clothes and open my mouth for food. ]
System: [Cheers! Ah Ruan finally got her happy ending after all the hardship. Wait, is there any other conspiracy? ]
[It doesn't matter. Why don't you help me think of how to get the palace maid to choose a skirt that I like? I don't want to wear open-crotch pants.]
[Host, you... are able to find the key points. You are really open-minded! ]
Yuanruan smiled with his teeth showing.
She knew that the system's speculation had some truth to it, but she was just a baby now. It was useless to think too much about it. It was better to just lie down and live her life.
Yuan Ruan squinted her eyes and enjoyed the bath and massage given to her by the palace maid. When the palace maid changed the water for her second wash, Wu Yi's voice suddenly came from outside.
"I ordered someone to buy some clothes." After a pause, Wu Yi continued to speak outside the military tent, "Let her choose these clothes herself."
After saying this, the door of the military tent was opened.
Six palace maids came in one after another, holding beautiful little skirts.
The maid was speechless. How could she let a baby choose clothes? The general had never taken care of a child before and was just making a fuss. But she didn't dare to object. She could only anxiously present the small clothes to Yuan Ruan one by one.
Fortunately, the baby was very cooperative. He looked at the beautiful clothes with sparkling eyes and reached out to touch them while babbling.
The palace maid then felt relieved and left the dress that Yuanruan had touched.
[Wow, the male mother has great taste, all of them are my favorite skirts! I can’t see it all. So cool! ]
[Ah Ruan, your skin has turned red. You have never worn such rough fabric before.]
[It’s OK. There’s no village or store near the garrison, so it’s good to have some small clothes. It’s not like I’m going to fly into space in a space suit, so anything is fine.]
Wu Yi outside the tent: ...
He turned around and went to find the palace maid, saying, "Immediately find the softest underwear material, silk is best, and cut out a few small skirts suitable for the baby as soon as possible, quickly!"
The leading maid said nervously, "General, only your Majesty's undershirt is made of silk."
Wu Yi paused. At this moment, the emperor's steady voice suddenly came from behind.
"Just do as the general orders."
Upon seeing this, the palace maid immediately obeyed the order and left.
Wu Yi also bowed in greeting.
The emperor glanced at him with his hands behind his back and said, "I heard that you sent your personal guards to the farmer's house to buy a dress. What happened? Didn't you buy good material? Did she feel uncomfortable wearing it?"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Wu Yi cupped his hands, "The princess was very sensible and didn't say anything, but the system feels sorry for her..."
Having said that, Wu Yi briefly described to the emperor what he had overheard.
When the emperor heard the words "clothes that can fly", his eyes lit up.
He said, "Space suit? There is such a magical thing?"
Wu Yi also nodded: "I was shocked when I heard it at first. I was still thinking, if the little princess said that, would she bring one with her..."
"It doesn't matter." The emperor gently interrupted him, "It is a great blessing for her to be by my side. As for the rest, it's okay if she has it or not. I won't force it."
Wu Yi took a deep breath, clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty is absolutely right. I am greedy."
After the two of them finished talking, they suddenly heard a very subtle voice:
[Wow! Both the godfather and the male mother are here, so handsome! So pleasing to the eyes! ]
They both turned around at the same time, and saw Yuan Ruan being carried out by a palace maid. Her soft little hands were wagging, and her round eyes were looking at them brightly.
[Even if I just look at it, I feel so happy! 】
Wu Yi and the emperor looked at each other and were both amused by Yuan Ruan's adorable attitude of being contented with what she has.
The emperor walked over first, picked up Yuanruan and held him high.
【Brother, muah! 】
【Boy, mother, be affectionate! 】
The emperor looked at Wu Yi with a half-smile. Wu Yi turned his head away and coughed lightly.
But soon, the emperor interacted with Yuan Ruan for a while and then handed it to Wu Yi, saying: "Since you like it, hug it."
Wu Yiyuan was still a little embarrassed.
But who doesn't like a soft and cute little friend looking at you lovingly with clear eyes? Especially when this little friend blows all kinds of cute rainbow farts.
The look in Wu Yi's eyes when he looked at Yuan Ruan became visibly softer, and even when he walked with her in his arms, his hands and feet felt a little stiff.
The emperor and Wu Yi happily raise the baby together.
The eyes of the people nearby who didn't hear what was going on almost popped out of their heads.
The tyrant, whom the four countries feared, personally embraced her and lifted her up high, and even named her a princess.
The five nations recognized the general as a "man-killer" and regarded him as a treasure.
What kind of charm does this baby have? !
…
…
The emperor's assassination meant that the tour route was leaked by a villain.
Normally, for safety reasons, the army must return to the capital.
However, Chen and Shu had always been eyeing Xia and had been trying to seduce the Xiongnu to overthrow Xia last year. The west, where Xia bordered the Xiongnu, was a major agricultural rear area that could not be disturbed, so this westward tour was also a threat, or an alliance with the Xiongnu, and was of great significance and could not be cancelled.
After much deliberation, the emperor deliberately released the news that he was injured.
On the one hand, he led an army of 20,000 and slowly returned to the capital of Xia. On the other hand, he sent a letter to the crown prince, ordering him to come secretly and take over his tour to the west.
Seven days later.
The emperor was instructing the eunuch in his tent, asking him to make the rice porridge prepared for Yuan Ruan finer.
Wu Yi, who was covered in dust, walked in with great strides and said with a folded hand, "Your Majesty, Song Wei has sent a message."
The emperor subconsciously looked at Yuan Ruan who was lying on the bed playing with his hands.
He stood up and walked a few steps outside before whispering, "Let me see it."
Wu Yi immediately delivered the secret letter.
The emperor opened the first memorial.
According to preliminary investigation, Yuan Ruan suddenly appeared in the village half a month ago with an old woman, saying that they came to seek refuge with relatives due to the war outside. The one who took them in was a lone hunter in the village.
But when Song Wei followed the clues to investigate, he discovered that the hunter had died long ago and his identity was replaced by a thief.
Further investigation revealed that someone testified that they knew about the baby with the special blue eyes, and claimed that the baby had appeared in a small courtyard in the capital (there was only one witness to this). Further investigation revealed that this small courtyard had been awarded by Concubine Hu to a palace maid who was leaving the palace to get married.
This is the end of the first memorial.
The emperor crushed the letter in his hand expressionlessly.
After a while, he picked up the second memorial and began to read it.
After investigation, no one had seen Concubine Hu having contact with any other men.
After investigation, it was found that Concubine Hu had not left the palace for nearly two years and spent most of her time in the small ancestral hall in her palace worshiping Buddha.
After investigation...
After reading the long list of records like "no" and "never", the emperor felt a little relieved, but soon he became confused again.
No outsiders.
Did not leave the palace.
It's impossible that I got pregnant by chance.
The emperor shook his head and discarded this somewhat outrageous idea.
Suddenly, a new idea came to his mind.
He patted Wu Yi on the shoulder and said, "Order Song Wei to expand the search area, focusing on checking the backyards of the palaces of my other brothers and uncles."
Wu Yi was stunned for a moment, then understood and said, "Your Majesty is wise. The system only said that she was a younger sister, but in addition to biological sisters, there are also cousins." At this point, Wu Yi almost laughed out loud. If it was a cousin, that would be great. Such a royal secret would not be fatal.
The emperor nodded slightly and waved his hand to signal Wu Yi to do the work.
But as soon as he went out, he quickly opened the curtain and came back.
"Why are you back again?" The emperor raised his head and suddenly showed a satisfied smile on his face, "You are here, kid."
Just at this moment, Yuanruan also woke up, rubbing her eyes.
It was the first time she heard the emperor use such a clamping sound on someone other than her.
Yuanruan lay on the pillow and looked up curiously.
The visitor took off his bright white long shirt, revealing a light blue wide sleeve. As the handsome young man walked, his long sleeves swayed like the hem of his skirt, and he exuded an ethereal aura of being an immortal.
"Greetings, Father!" the young man bowed.
[Wow. This is actually the son of the handsome man! So handsome?! No, the emperor is so old?!]
Prince: ???
Who is speaking?
Who dares to say that the emperor is old!
The prince's eyes suddenly became sharp, his right hand was placed on the hilt of the sword, and the air of his ascension to heaven suddenly changed, his whole body was like a long sword that was about to come out of the shell.
[Oh my god, some actors should really learn how to dress up without eyeshadow! Look at this momentum, it's completely different from before. It's really amazing.]
[Ding——Host, this seems to be the prince with the most fragile heart! Do you want to eat the melon? 】
The prince was stunned. He just wanted to shout "Who!", but unexpectedly Wu Yi covered his mouth with his hand.
The prince was stunned and tried to struggle, but he saw his usually serious father making several "quiet" gestures to him.
Prince: ???
My father and the generals are actually sneaking around?!
Wait, was he poisoned before?
Not only was I hallucinating just now, but now I'm also experiencing visual hallucinations?
