"Your Majesty, Hanhan is running outside, and Nuannuan is out playing."
"Deshun, go and find that person."
After Deshun left, Zhou Beichen felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at Shen Nian'an who was half-kneeling on the ground.
"My beloved, from now on, when we are alone in private, you don't have to kneel. I allow you not to greet me."
Shen Nian paused, disbelief flashing in his eyes.
"But Your Majesty..."
Zhou Beichen glared at her and roared madly.
"Whatever I say is what it is. If I say you don't have to kneel, then you don't have to kneel."
He pulled Shen Nian'an up rudely and pushed him onto the chair.
"From now on, you can still be as unruly to me as before. I like it."
Shen Nian'an shook her head in confusion and stood up, "Your Majesty, I dare not."
Zhou Beichen was domineering and aggressive towards her.
"You dare."
Shen Nian’an shuddered deliberately and lowered his head.
"I dare not."
Zhou Beichen deliberately slowed down his tone.
"No, you dare."
"Your Majesty..."
"If I say you dare, then you dare. Otherwise, you are guilty of deceiving the emperor."
Shen Nian’an: “…”
"Okay, I dare you!"
Only then did Zhou Beichen reveal a satisfied smile.
"Sit there. I feel awkward sitting while you stand."
Cursing him as a pervert in his heart, Shen Nian'an sat obediently on the chair.
Why is this woman so obedient? He is not satisfied again.
In fact, Zhou Beichen really wanted to say that he was too optimistic about the fearless Shen Nian'an in the past, and even missed him a little.
No, he had to find a way to get that woman back.
When Zhou Zhaonuan and Zhou Zeyun arrived, they saw this scene: their father was desperately talking to their mother.
"Chen Nian'an, didn't you like to scold me before? Curse me again and I'll listen."
Shen Nian’an: “…”
Glancing at him secretly with the eyes of a fool, Shen Nian'an knelt down again, "Your Majesty, if I scold you, you will make me kneel down. I dare not. I am afraid that you will strangle me to death."
Zhou Beichen: “…”
He flicked his sleeves coldly. How could this damn woman be so stupid that she simply couldn't understand what he was saying?
"Get up."
He patiently and kindly helped Shen Nian'an up, "Just like before, treat me the same way you treated me before, treat me the same way now."
Shen Nian'an shook her head, "This concubine doesn't understand."
"I'm leaving, you think about it carefully."
After patting Shen Nian'an's butt, Zhou Beichen suppressed the anger in his heart and walked out the door.
"Daddy, did Mommy do something wrong? Why did you hit her? You can't bully Mommy just because you're tall and strong."
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Father, what happened between you and mother? If you have something to say, please speak politely. Don't use such violent force."
He saw two little kids questioning him seriously at the door.
Zhou Beichen: “…”
He opened his mouth in surprise, "Why are you two here? And when did I bully your mother?"
Nuannuan blurted out without thinking.
"We all saw it. Daddy spanked Mommy."
Shen Nian'an's face flushed with embarrassment, and he immediately returned to the bedroom. This damn emperor.
Nothing.
Zhou Beichen was also a little embarrassed. He looked at his confused daughter and son and gave a casual explanation.
"You are still children, don't ask so many questions. When you grow up, you will understand naturally."
Nuannuan opened her mouth wide, with a gossipy glint in her eyes, and wanted to continue talking.
Zhou Beichen said immediately.
"Alright, alright, you two little rascals, don't you both want to learn martial arts? Come on, I'll take you somewhere."
Zhou Zhaonuan and Zhou Zeyun were in high spirits now. The three of them changed into casual clothes and soon arrived at a particularly large courtyard outside the city.
The yard is surrounded by dense iron fences, which makes it almost airtight. The further you go in, the deeper it becomes.
When Zhou Beichen brought Nuannuan and Hanhan into the first room, there were about twenty shadow guards in training. They were about eighteen or nineteen years old. Their skin was pale because they had not been exposed to the sun for many years.
Looking more closely, the walls of the room were almost covered with various torture instruments.
Entering the second room, there were also more than 20 people, probably about 15 or 16 years old. Zhou Beichen led the two children inside until they reached the last room.
Similarly, there were more than forty five- or six-year-old babies being trained, twenty boys and twenty girls. Because they cried so much, there were many wooden horses and rattles on the ground, and even a swing hanging on the wall.
It really made the two babies confused.
Nuannuan poked her little head out from Zhou Beichen's arms and greeted them.
"My dear brothers and sisters, are you tired? Nuannuan wants to play with you for a while."
Zhou Beichen: “…”
He didn't bring this useless girl here to play with them.
Wang Da came out from the shadows and knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live the Emperor."
"Stand up."
As he said this, he smiled at Nuannuan, put his daughter on the ground, and gave instructions.
"Stop it all and come and meet Princess Chang'an and Prince Yan."
Upon hearing this, all the little people immediately stopped what they were doing, lined up properly and knelt down.
"Greetings to Princess Chang'an, and to His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan."
