Chapter 149 There is still a long way to go
"Your Highness, Beibei just called me daddy."
When Shen Lingshu saw Chu Cong, she immediately said what her daughter had just shouted. There was a hint of sourness in her words, and she said, "Your Highness, I accompany An An and Bei Bei every day. Who would have known that Bei Bei would call you Your Highness first."
Chu Cong heard the sourness in her words and was about to say that he would come to accompany the twin sisters whenever he was free. Who knew that before he could say anything, he heard Beibei sitting on the bed, reaching out to him excitedly: "Daddy, Daddy."
The crisp words were a little unclear, but when Beibei smiled, her eyes were curved like crescent moons, and her sparkling eyes were full of him.
The chubby little hands were open, as if wanting him to hug them. Chu Cong felt a very different emotion overflowing from his chest, an emotion he had never experienced in his life.
Daughter, his daughter will call him "Dad."
Chu Cong strode forward, picked up his daughter, and said, "Beibei, be good, call me again."
"Dad, Dad."
Beibei was held high in the arms, giggling with joy.
"Hey, Beibei." Chu Cong felt warm in his heart and hugged Beibei tighter.
"Dad, Dad."
Beibei, who has just learned to speak, has a strong desire to speak.
"Beibei, call mother." Shen Lingshu came forward sourly, pinched Beibei's face and said.
"Dad, Dad."
Beibei, who only knows this name, always shouts "Dad, Dad" no matter who asks him anything.
Chu Cong was happy in his heart and comforted her: "Ling Shu, Beibei has just learned to speak. In the future, she will be able to shout, right, Beibei?"
Beibei nodded cutely, grinning, revealing six cute little teeth: "Daddy, Daddy."
"Hey, Daddy's good daughter."
Chu Cong was so happy that he was about to overflow. He hugged his sister An An again. An An couldn't speak yet, but she looked at Chu Cong and smiled.
Shen Lingshu sat aside, watching Chu Cong's excitement, and thought: It was worth it that she only taught her daughters to call him "Daddy". She hoped that Chu Cong could deepen his feelings for his two daughters in the future, and protect his two daughters more after he became the emperor.
On the tenth day of February, Shen Lingshu packed up her things, took her two daughters' belongings, and set off for South City.
"Brother? Aren't you going?"
Chu Cong looked at the Crown Prince and Shen Lingyi who showed up unexpectedly. When he suggested to his elder brother that they go to Nancheng to plant early rice together, his elder brother said that he was busy with affairs in the capital and had no time to go.
How come my brother is here in just a few days?
"Lingyi is from South City. She hasn't been back for a long time. She also wants to go back and take a look."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince put his arm around Shen Lingyi's waist, and Shen Lingyi smiled sweetly: "Your Highness is so good to me."
"You are my woman, so I will treat you well."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at Shen Lingyi affectionately, raised his eyes and asked: "Second brother, we are going to South City, and you are running around with two daughters who are less than one year old..."
"Brother, An An and Bei Bei are almost one year old, it's a good time for them to go out and play." Chu Cong didn't want to take his two daughters with him at that time. He felt that the two daughters were too young and the journey was long. What if one of them got sick or something.
But Shen Lingshu was worried about leaving her two daughters in the backyard of the mansion, but Concubine Fang was not a kind person. If she did something, she would be out of reach.
Besides, this time when she went to Nancheng, she not only wanted to plant early rice, but she also wanted to find someone who was good at pharmacology. If she was there, An An and Bei Bei would be safer.
Although the journey was hard, at least she was safe with her mother and the prince.
Look, this carriage has been specially modified. Although it is not as good as the RVs of later generations, it is a spacious carriage with everything you need. It even has small beds specially prepared for the two children, so that they can sleep in the carriage as cleanly and comfortably as if they were sleeping in a bed.
When Shen Lingshu learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Shen Lingyi had also arrived, she paused for a moment, then immediately got out of the car to pay her respects.
"Meet His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, Concubine."
Shen Lingshu saluted gracefully. She was not very surprised by the prince's sudden arrival. After all, she had probably guessed it when the sachet incident happened.
“Sister, why are you so polite to your sister?” Shen Lingyi stepped forward enthusiastically, wanting to take Shen Lingshu’s hand.
Shen Lingshu stepped back: "Sister is the prince's concubine, she is of noble status, so she should be respected."
After hearing this, Shen Lingyi subconsciously straightened her back and said, “You are my sister, so you are not an outsider.”
She looked at Shen Lingshu's face jealously. Even after giving birth to two daughters, why did it seem to be more beautiful than before?
But soon, the jealousy in her eyes was replaced by gloating. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had any feelings for her, she would have no choice but to die.
"Lingshu, go back to the carriage first."
Chu Cong stepped forward and asked Shen Lingshu to go back to the carriage first. Shen Lingyi, the eldest sister, was not someone who was easy to get along with.
"It's getting late, big brother, let's set off. We should get to Nancheng as soon as possible, plant the rice as soon as possible, and see the results sooner." Chu Cong said to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"In that case, get in the carriage."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince withdrew his gaze from Shen Lingshu, turned around and got into the carriage.
He made the decision on the spur of the moment after hearing that Shen Lingshu would go to South City. Therefore, there were not many things on the carriage, but it was okay. As long as he said a word, the missing things would be delivered.
Shen Lingshu...
There is a long way to go, so don't rush.
"Your Highness."
Shen Lingyi looked at the look in His Royal Highness's eyes and felt happy. As long as Shen Lingshu could be destroyed and His Royal Highness had another beauty, she didn't mind.
In any case, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would never take anyone into the Eastern Palace.
In the carriage, the prince and Shen Lingyi were in a mess.
Shen Lingshu lowered her eyes and looked at her two daughters who were excited about going out. She didn't care much about the fact that the prince and Shen Lingyi went to Nancheng together.
After the crown prince was reinstated, although she didn't know what he did, it was all written in the script. The crown prince had been the crown prince for so many years, even if he pretended to be good for a while, after a long time, he would covet the position on the throne even more.
In addition, Duke Xiao behind him couldn't wait to become the king's uncle and wanted to see his nephew sitting on the throne. Isn't that impatient?
Not to mention that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not only covets the position on the throne, but also secretly forms cliques and has a habit of liking young boys and girls. If you just expose any one of them, it would be something that the Crown Prince would not do!
He went to South City?
It’s definitely not about growing early rice.
Shen Lingshu didn't bother to care. Although Chu Cong was filial and had no intention of competing, he was not a person who didn't know how to be on guard. After all, the person who could finally ascend to the throne would not be someone who could be slaughtered at will!
Therefore, Shen Lingshu just needs to enjoy this journey with peace of mind!
