Fortunately, Feng Yinzhen had good self-control and quickly suppressed the impulse in his heart. Instead, he seriously received the King of the Western Frontier and had a friendly yet intimidating conversation with him.
However, after receiving the Western Prince and the morning court ended, Feng Yinzhen was still unable to take Feng Wanwan back from Nian Gengyao's arms.
He said.
"General, you've had a long journey. Should you go home first or report to the military headquarters?
Come, give Wanwan to me first, and General, go and take care of your own business."
But Geng Yao said.
"I'm not in a hurry to go home. I'll report on my work later. However, I've missed my younger sister terribly during these years away, and I've missed many important events for her. Since I'm already in the palace, I'd like to ask Your Majesty for mercy and allow me to go see her first."
It was true that he missed his younger sister, but Nian Gengyao was not someone who didn't know the importance of things. He changed his mind temporarily and went to see Concubine Hua first because he didn't want to let go of Feng Wanwan in his arms so early.
Feng Yinzhen had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, I will go to Yikun Palace with the general to see Lan'er. The general doesn't know that Lan'er heard that the general is returning today and she couldn't sleep last night. Now she is also looking forward to seeing the general.
"The general has been holding Wanwan for the entire morning court session and must be exhausted. Please let me hold the child so that you can rest your arms."
"Your Majesty, are you joking with me? I've been in the army for years, and I never forget to train. My body has long been as hard as iron.
Not to mention a little baby like Wanwan who is less than three months old, even if she is ten years old, I can still hold her for a whole day without feeling tired.
The Emperor is very busy and exhausted, so please don't let Wanwan tire him out. Please let me continue to hold you."
Nian Gengyao smiled slightly, holding Feng Wanwan in his arms and making a gesture of invitation towards Feng Yinzhen.
"Your Majesty, please go first."
Feng Yinzhen's face was turning a little blue from holding back his anger, but he had no way to deal with Nian Gengyao. He could only stomp his feet and get on the sedan chair first.
He was filled with regret: If he had known this would happen, he would not have given Wanwan to his brother.
Now it’s gone, I can’t get it back after giving it away! It’s so infuriating!
His brother was obviously a straightforward person, so why didn't he know before that his brother also knew how to make excuses in a roundabout way?
This was such a good excuse that he had no way to deal with him.
Feng Wanwan didn't react until this moment.
[Hey, why is my dad's face purple? Is he angry?]
[Oh yeah, he seemed to have said a lot about wanting to take me back, but my uncle refused.]
[Could it be that he was angry because he was rejected by my uncle? ]
[Ahahaha, so my dad is fighting with my uncle for holding me? ]
[It's really funny. My dad sees me every day, but he doesn't seem to like hugging me. Instead, he often leaves me aside to hug my mother. Why is it that as soon as my uncle comes back, he rushes to hug me?]
Is this the legendary scene where one piglet refuses to eat and the rest of the litter rushes to eat? Hahaha, this is so funny.
When Nian Gengyao heard this, his eyebrows raised: What? Feng Yinzhen usually guards this treasure every day without hugging it? He really doesn't know how to appreciate the blessing he has.
Now that he's back, this kid wants to fight with him for the hug again? No way!
He proudly hugged Feng Wanwan tighter, got on the sedan chair, and entered the harem with Feng Yinzhen, arriving at Yiku Palace.
At that time, Concubine Hua had already received the news in advance and was waiting at the gate of Yiku Palace.
Seeing the sedan chair carrying Nian Gengyao coming in from afar, the joy and excitement in her eyes instantly soared. If she was not worried about losing her imperial concubine's demeanor, she really wanted to pounce on it immediately.
When Nian Gengyao's sedan chair came closer, she noticed that her daughter was actually in her eldest brother's arms. His face was full of smiles, and he and Feng Wanwan, the two of them, were happily playing with their fingers. It was obvious that they were getting along very well.
Concubine Hua's heart was even more agitated: "Brother!"
She hasn't seen her elder brother for many years. Although they have been exchanging letters, they cannot meet in person after all. She really misses and worries about her elder brother.
And now her elder brother was standing in front of her, holding her daughter in his arms. She felt warm in her heart and tears couldn't stop flowing out.
At this moment, she couldn't help but think of the days when her eldest brother accompanied her when she was young. At that time, her eldest brother was still a teenager. Now her eldest brother is middle-aged, but he still loves her and her daughter as always.
"Little sister!"
Before the sedan chair came to a complete stop, Nian Gengyao impatiently stepped down, holding Feng Wanwan tightly with his arms.
He hurried to Concubine Hua, looked at her face carefully, reached out his hand to wipe the tears from her face, and whispered.
"Don't cry, don't cry, aren't you happy that your brother is back? Why are you still crying?
Let me see, my little sister has gained some weight, but she looks better than before. She has become more stable and composed since giving birth. She has really grown up."
"I'm crying for joy, brother. You've become thinner, darker, and rougher. You must have suffered a lot during these years at the border."
Concubine Hua let Nian Gengyao's fingertips touch her face, but suddenly she felt something. She grabbed Nian Gengyao's hand, turned his palm over, took a breath, and her voice trembled.
"Brother, what's wrong with your palm..."
Feng Wanwan also looked over and was shocked.
[My uncle's palm has such a deep scar.]
[No wonder I felt my uncle's palm was rough when he held me just now.]
