Chapter 132 Elixir
The Duke's wife held Xie Zhinan's hand. It was the first time she saw him fighting for it. He acted a little like a child, otherwise she would have thought he was a fool.
She patiently comforted him: "Don't grab them, Anan, there are many other toys."
But Xie Zhinan was determined to get it.
Xie Zhiyi picked up the one that belonged to him and walked over to hand it to Xie Zhinan.
Just as Xie Zhinan was about to take it, Shen Zhixi snatched it away: "It all belongs to Xixi."
Xie Zhinan burst into tears, his mother gave all her love to others.
The Duke's wife looked at Chen Shurong and said, "If Ayi doesn't want it, give it to Anan."
Xie Zhinan stopped crying and waited for Shen Shurong's agreement with tears in his eyes.
Chen Shurong looked at him and smiled: "Mom, although Ayi doesn't like it, but Xixi has it, he doesn't have it, so he will get angry. Why not let the eldest sister-in-law sew one for Anan, it's very simple."
The Duke's wife thought the same thing. Twins should have everything the same. Even if they don't like each other, they can't have less than the other: "Alright."
Tears began to flow from Xie Zhinan's eyes and he started crying again. He took his grandmother's hand and was about to go home.
Shen Shurong knew that he remembered the puppet in his previous life, so he deliberately came over, squatted down and looked at him: “Anan, grandma is not just yours, she also has to like her brothers and sisters, you can’t be so selfish.”
Is he selfish?
Xie Zhinan lowered his head and said nothing. His heart was really broken. His mother didn't remember him and only had the two little ones in her heart.
Shen Shurong sneered in his heart, he was exactly like his father.
He was willing to give himself away in his previous life, but now it seems like he loves her so deeply that he can't let her go in this life.
And Xie Zhinan, who clearly wished she would die in his previous life, now actually wants to win her love.
You don't cherish it when you get it, and want to get it back when you lose it. How despicable.
"Mom, my husband and I plan to take Ayi and Xixi to the farm to play for a few days and show them the scenery in the countryside."
"Go ahead, be careful and take the things they are used to."
"Don't worry, mom. I can take care of them myself and never ask anyone else for help. I know their habits very well."
The Duke's wife praised: "You used to be so delicate and timid, but now that you are a mother, you are more attentive than others."
Chen Shurong smiled: "I didn't know what it felt like to have children before, now I just hate that I haven't done enough, and I always want to give them the best."
Xie Zhinan clenched his fists and pursed his lips tightly, the drooping curve showing his grievance.
He felt so sad that he stood up, took his nanny's hand and walked out the door.
Chen Shurong curled his lips proudly and said, "If you want to snatch Xixi's doll, it depends on whether you are worthy of it!"
"This child, why is he so dull? We have met for such a long time, but he doesn't even know to call me Second Aunt."
The Duke's wife was also helpless: "Yes, I taught him many times. Although his father is serious, he always greeted people when he was a child."
Shen Shurong sighed slightly: “Let’s see when you grow up.”
The Duke's wife also sighed. She thought he was so listless because he missed Li Wan'er. He refused to go when she took him to see his mother. Only when he came to the Princess's Mansion did his eyes light up.
But from that day on, Xie Zhinan never accompanied his grandmother to the Princess's Mansion again, and when Chen Shurong's family went to the Duke's Mansion, he didn't dare to get closer. The closer he got, the sadder he felt.
He was extremely bored every day. His father seldom visited him and ordered him not to go to school before the age of three.
The things his grandmother asked people to play with him were all childish.
When his grandfather came to see him, he always poked him with his stubble, and looked very annoyed, but he still smiled on purpose.
The most annoying thing was that his grandfather always teased him about losing his chicken. Not only would he scare him on purpose, he would also always want to help him find it.
So he ran away when he saw his grandfather. Maybe his grandfather was teased this way in his previous life, but he was a real child at that time and had long forgotten all this.
Duke Lu found it boring, so he would tease Xie Zhiyi when he came. Xie Zhiyi would then seriously help his grandfather find his lost chick.
He knew that the treasury was now managed by his mother, and he was very sure that his second uncle had also been reborn and had taken away his father's credit.
What can he say?
First, there is no evidence that my second uncle deliberately caused my mother to fall into the water, and second, my rebirth cannot be exposed.
I thought it would be easier with the memories than in my previous life, but now it is the opposite. I am afraid I will never have a chance to become the emperor.
Since he couldn't sit in that position, he couldn't let his second uncle sit in it either. When the time came, the Duke of Lu's Mansion would be his inherited title, and his status would still be higher than Xie Zhiyi's.
In February of the following year, good news came from Zhuangzi: the weapon the princess wanted had been developed.
Chen Shurong hugged Xie Yunzhao excitedly, her eyes red. After waiting for so long, she finally got the biggest killer weapon.
"Husband, we can finally go out to sea."
The significance of sea transportation is extremely important. The silk and porcelain produced in abundance in the Great Zhou Dynasty are very popular and can be exchanged for large amounts of gold and silver.
It was obviously a great thing that would benefit the country and the people, and Li Chen also knew that he could earn a lot of money for himself. But he pressed down and didn't let her move, with the purpose of making Xie Yunzheng compromise and give her up.
Now she is determined to gain control of the shipping network, and no one can interfere with her. Likewise, no one can take advantage of her.
"The warships in Bianhai are ready, but Ayi and Xixi are too young." Xie Yunzhao finally had two more little weaknesses, and he would consider them when something happened.
"Of course you should take the children with you, so that they can feel how vast the world is from an early age." Don't be short-sighted like Xie Yunzheng, who, for the position of the Crown Prince of the Duke of Lu's Mansion, did not hesitate to harm his own brothers from an early age.
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
"Well, I want to go to the palace as well."
When he went there, Li Chen was meditating, cultivating immortality with great sincerity.
Shen Shurong glanced at the Taoist priest who was also meditating and nodded slightly.
He saluted Li Chen and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you end the proclamation of Yongjia?"
Li Chen closed his eyes and said, "Please take a seat. I heard you were in a hurry. I won't disturb you."
Chen Shurong did not keep the secret and said directly: "Since the establishment of the navy, Yongjia has been sending people to monitor the border sea. I heard that more countries are joining the maritime trade, so I want to go and explore it."
Li Chen opened his eyes and shook his head in disapproval: "It's a waste of time. It's better to work hard on the financial library and make a profit quickly."
"Your Majesty, rest assured that the treasury's business will continue to operate normally and will not be affected in any way. Yongjia is just going to see if there is any opportunity. If there is, it would be a pity if it is taken away by other countries."
Two days ago, someone in the court proposed that now that there are no pirates, the useless navy should be abolished.
He did not object at the time, but he did not agree either. He just said he would discuss it later.
Seeing her like this now, she must be trying to find a meaning for the existence of the navy.
"In that case, go and give it a try. If it doesn't work, come back. I'm sure you've heard about the abolition of the navy. When you come back, cancel it. It's a waste of military pay."
Shen Shurong stood up and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will listen to you, but Yongjia will do his best."
"Back off."
Chen Shurong left, but Li Chen did not close his eyes. He stared at her back and looked at her graceful steps. She was different after giving birth to a child.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
When he came to his senses, he saw that the Taoist priest had prepared an elixir for him, so he took it and ate it reverently...
