"Have you left?"
Ye An's messy hair showed from under the quilt, and his body below the neck was covered tightly.
Mu Ci nodded, went back to bed and hugged him.
This kind of thing is inconvenient when you have children. Children are very curious and adults are powerless to explain. Just now, Mu Ci was afraid that Ye Xi would force his way in, so he rolled off the bed in a panic, despite his high martial arts skills. Ye An hid under the quilt, trying hard to hold back his laughter.
"Ah Ci, are you okay?"
Ye An took the initiative to rub him with his foot, and warned him not to hurt his waist if he braked suddenly.
Mu Ci said, "It's okay. The secret guards have taken Xi'er and the others to bed."
So there are no worries?
The two of them were intimate for a long time in the dark.
"Aci, I miss you so much..."
Ye An had a lot to say, but he felt very satisfied lying in Mu Ci's arms. He just wanted to hold him like this until the end of time.
Mu Ci touched his lips: "I miss you too."
Ye An smiled and pinched Mu Ci's chin: "Ah Ci, you are finally willing to say sweet words."
In the past, Mu Ci was busy doing more and talking less.
Mu Ci said: "Yes...I was wrong before. If you want to listen in the future, I will talk until you get tired of it."
"Then you probably won't be able to wait any longer. Haha, even though I have lost my memory, I still like you."
Ye An found it funny when he thought about falling in love with Mu Ci again. On the one hand, he thought he was a substitute and was in agony, but on the other hand, he was completely bewitched by him.
"You definitely did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Ye An blinked his eyes and fell in love at first sight, mainly because the two of them were so compatible.
Mu Ci did not deny that he had put a lot of thought into it, and only said proudly: "Besides me, who else do you want to like?"
Brother Aci has become conceited!
Ye An loved him so much in his heart, but he deliberately said: "Niu Er is actually..."
"Don't mention him!"
Mu Ci was particularly annoyed when Ye An mentioned Niu Er next door. The secret guards checked and found that this man had a good heart and had never done anything bad. He usually took good care of Ye An. Before Mu Ci appeared, he was the most popular among the boys and even invited a matchmaker to visit Ye An. Mu Ci felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. If he hadn't found Ye An, would this guy remarry?
Mu Ci was jealous, and Ye An was laughing so hard that he was bent over. He insisted on bringing it up, which made Mu Ci cover his mouth fiercely again.
As a result, my waist and legs ached the next day and I could hardly get out of bed.
The buns were not allowed to see their daddy last night. When their daddy finally woke up, they rushed up to him like cannonballs, asking him to hold them. Ye An's old waist was almost broken. Fortunately, Mu Ci took the buns over in time.
Ye An blushed and thought, isn't it said that there are no fields that die of exhaustion, only cows that die of exhaustion? This doesn't seem right.
Ye Xi and the secret guards have already taught the two children, and in the future it will be the second and third princes.
Tuantuan and Yuanyuan just learned how to count. They counted on their fingers again and again. Two is followed by three, so isn’t the one in front one?
"Is my brother a prince?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince slipped and almost fell.
Mu Ci hadn't seen Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan for more than three years, so he naturally preferred the two Bao Zi. Ye An thought about being separated from Ye Xi for three years, so he loved Ye Xi even more.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is considerate of his father and is delighted by his father's favor. The two families were successfully merged into one, and he was the happiest one, except for a little dissatisfaction. After his father recovered his memory, he no longer called him Xier, but called him by his former nickname Doudou instead. He also always told Tuantuan and Yuanyuan about how great Doudou was in the past. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is already five years old, and since he started his education at the age of four, he has used his full name instead of his nickname. It would be embarrassing to call him Doudou anymore.
But his father insisted on calling him, could he refuse?
Just like that, the Crown Prince's dream of having the kids call him "Royal Brother" had not yet come true, and he suddenly became the rustic "Brother Dou Dou". Tuantuan and Yuanyuan liked this new name "Brother" very much because it sounded similar to them.
The secret guards began to pack up Ye An's things in Yunzhou. The Queen Mother could no longer wait and sent several secret decrees to urge him. Ye An's throne was successfully preserved thanks to the Queen Mother, Prince Dongling and several important ministers. Now that his memory has been restored, it would be bad for him to ignore the situation in the imperial city and continue to live freely.
In fact, Yunzhou is a place with mountains and rivers, and the people are simple and honest. Ye An is an ordinary person at heart. He has lived here for three years, which is very comfortable. While the secret guards were cleaning up, he also went with Lamu Ci to see the beautiful scenery of sunrise and sunset. The clouds in the sky were dyed golden and were within reach. This is the origin of the name Yunzhou.
Mu Ci smiled: "Since you like it, I will come with you again when I have time in the future."
Ye An's original reluctance to leave suddenly turned into anticipation.
Mu Ci never promises anything easily, but every time he makes a promise, he will do it. Ye An believes in him.
The yard was cleaned up, but Ye An didn't want to sell it to anyone else, so he kept it. While they were busy, Niu Er walked into the yard.
Niu Er was a little upset when Aunt Qin's matchmaking was rejected. Aunt Qin advised him to ignore Ye An for a few days so that Ye An would realize his good points and agree. Niu Er originally felt that it was not appropriate, but Aunt Qin had done a lot of matchmaking, so she must have her reasons. Niu Er was very nervous. He had not been here for just a few days, and suddenly he learned that Ye An was leaving Yunzhou. Niu Er was devastated!
"Xiao An, where are you going?"
Niu Er looked at the things in the yard that had been collected and felt dazed.
Mu Ci didn't go anywhere and just stayed with Ye An. When he saw his "rival in love" coming, he immediately came over and stood beside Ye An, holding Ye An's hand tightly and intertwining their fingers. Although he did not directly expel people for Ye An, the intention to declare sovereignty was obvious.
Brother Aci can be childish sometimes, which Ye An finds a little funny, but he still makes it clear to Niu Er.
"Brother Niu, I'm leaving. Thank you for your care over the years."
"You, are you dating him?"
Niu Er pointed at Mu Ci in shock. The first time he saw Ye An, Mu Ci and a few children walking together on the street, he felt very uneasy. He was still hesitating and immediately asked Aunt Qin to come and act as a matchmaker. Niu Er regretted it deeply as he never expected that his kindness in helping someone find the way would end up costing his sweetheart.
Ye An nodded shyly: "Brother Niu, this is my husband."
Even her husband was mentioned, and Niu Er felt heartbroken: "He is not worthy of you. He has children, and he won't really treat your children well. What's the point of being good-looking? He will be old in a few years."
Mu Ci, who will be old in a few years: "..."
Ye An suppressed his laughter, and scratched Mu Ci's palm soothingly with his sleeve, saying, "Second Brother Niu, you misunderstood. In fact, he and I have been married for many years. I lost my memory and left him, and he has been looking for me. These children are all born to me, and they are his children."
Niu Er was stunned: "Can you give birth?"
God knows he has been hesitating because boys cannot have children and he dares not propose to Ye An.
Ye An whispered, "Shh, this is a secret, very few men can have children."
Niu Er said: "So, you and he are the original couple?"
Ye An glanced at Mu Ci proudly and said, "She is the original wife, absolutely genuine."
Niu Er was a man with a strong sense of morality. He understood that he was the one who got in the middle. Although he felt bad, he also knew that it was unreasonable for him to come and make trouble. He said sadly, "I... I'm sorry, Xiao An, it turns out that you two are a couple."
Ye An said sincerely: "I am also wrong. It is my fault that Niu Erge misunderstood me. I hope Niu Erge can find a partner that suits him."
Niu Er nodded awkwardly and took a last look at Ye An. The tall man lowered his head and walked away as if he had done something wrong.
"He is such a good man." Ye An said with emotion.
Mu Ci didn't know what to say. If Niu Er didn't have such a character, he would have taken action to deal with him long ago.
After settling everything, Ye An said goodbye to his fellow villagers in Yunzhou and set off with Mu Ci and their three children. Although they did not travel day and night, they used fast horses. Half a month later, they returned safely to the imperial city.
The Queen Mother put aside all government affairs and waited in person at the palace gate. When Ye An and Mu Ci appeared with their three children, the Queen Mother shed tears.
"An'er, you are such a troublemaker. You ran away when I wasn't paying attention."
No matter how much the empress dowager worried, it all turned into laughter and scolding at this moment. He was blaming himself deeply in his heart. After all, he did not take good care of the pregnant emperor, and he did not find the emperor in time after he disappeared. If there were no military and national affairs for him to take care of, the empress dowager didn't know whether she could survive.
"Father, it's my fault. I have made you worry all these years."
Ye An stepped forward and held the empress dowager's arm. Seeing that she looked much older, he felt very upset.
Seeing this, Mu Ci quickly put out the two buns.
Tuantuan and Yuanyuan were still dizzy when they entered the palace for the first time. Brother Doudou taught them, but there were too many titles for them to remember. Once they entered the palace, they had to call Daddy the Emperor. Aci’s Daddy was the Empress Father, and what was the name of Daddy’s daddy?
"Emperor——"
The two buns were stuck in their shells at the same time. They blinked their watery peach blossom eyes at each other, and immediately had an idea. They ran forward and hugged the empress dowager's legs one by one.
"Grandpa!" the buns laughed.
When the Queen Mother saw the two buns, she was so happy that she didn't even bother to wipe her tears. She quickly picked up the buns one by one and couldn't stop looking at them. The two little princes looked very similar, and the empress dowager couldn't tell which one was Tuantuan and which one was Yuanyuan.
In order to avoid unnecessary disputes, one of the twins in the imperial family would usually be sent away after birth. After the Queen Mother learned that Ye Ansheng was having twins, she also had concerns in this regard. Now, holding two pink and tender babies in her arms, her heart melted when she heard them calling her "Grandpa" one after another. The Queen Mother thought, screw the old rules. If I can't protect you, am I worthy of being your grandfather?
Ye Xi stepped forward and saluted the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother patted his hands and said with a smile: "Dou Dou has grown up too."
Prince Dongling received the news and rushed over from Suzaku Hall. He wanted to pounce, but his gorgeous clothes were too heavy, so Ye Le had to bow politely.
"My royal brother, are you well?"
"Xiao Le!" Ye An patted his shoulder affectionately, "Thank you so much for all these years."
Mu Ci told Ye An that the court had been peaceful in recent years thanks to the joint efforts of Prince Dongling and the Queen Mother. With the Emperor "recuperating for a long time" and the Queen Mother "personally taking care of the Emperor", the Queen Mother had the right to rule the country, but the court officials were truly relieved with Prince Dongling, the Emperor's younger brother, to keep them in check.
Ye An also knew that it was not easy for Ye Le. After all, Ye Le was unruly and liked to have fun. It was not easy for him to sit down and carefully review the memorials for the sake of his royal brother.
"I dare not take credit for it. My brother's safety is more important than anything else."
Ye Le's expression was much calmer than a few years ago.
When the emperor disappeared, the empress dowager summoned him urgently and asked him his opinion in a roundabout way. Ye Le knew that if he did not respond, the empress dowager would find someone else. If it were someone else, they might not have any ulterior motives towards the emperor. Although Ye Le was not close to the empress dowager, he still agreed for the sake of his brother.
He made up his mind and personally sent his newly born daughter to the Empress Dowager's Changle Palace, and promised that he would not have any more children before the Emperor was found. This was the sincerity he had to show to prove that Prince Dongling would not betray the Emperor and the Prince. In this way, the Empress Dowager would not worry that he would take the opportunity to seek personal gain and steal the throne. In this way, the Prince's position would be secure.
Ye Le and the Queen Mother thought of the worst-case scenario. If the emperor really could not come back, they would wait until the prince was twelve years old, announce the emperor's death, and help the prince ascend the throne. At that time, the prince would be able to handle state affairs independently.
He considered himself not a good person. Everyone who was born in the palace had their own plans. But when it was really his turn to be in power, he could not forget the emperor's kindness in saving him. If the emperor had not hidden him in the bushes first, he would have been abducted by Yelu Han and might not have been drugged or lost his memory.
This is what he owes his royal brother, and he should do it. Sending away the legitimate daughter and not having an heir is also a restriction on himself, lest he forgets his original intention and is blinded by the imperial power.
Ye An was well aware of the sacrifices made by King Dongling over the years. He thought for a long time on how to repay Ye Le. He took a chance to pull Ye Le aside and said softly, "Xiao Le, your daughter Ye Ling has been raised in Changle Palace. I want to make her a princess. I want to triple your fiefdom. What do you think?"
Ye Le: “…”
Ye Le coughed lightly and said, "Brother Emperor, no matter how much fiefdom you have, it's not enough. Forget about the princess. I only have this one legitimate daughter. She was born a princess, which is already very good."
Ye An wants to make his niece a princess, but he also has his own little thoughts. On the way back from Yunzhou, he was almost annoyed to death by his three brats. Boys of this age are so naughty that even dogs dislike them. Ye Anchao wanted a cute and quiet daughter, and named Ye Ling a princess, hoping to love her like a daughter. However, Ye Le saw through his plan and rejected her directly.
Ye An had no choice but to say: "I really want to have a little princess."
Ye Le didn't care: "It's not easy for my brother to want a princess, can't he just give birth to one himself?"
Ye An: “…”
If you want to give birth to your own child, then give it to yourself. The emperor rubbed his hands, threw a coquettish look at the queen, and decided, this time I want a daughter, daughter, daughter!
Queen: Suddenly, I feel so stressed!
