Chapter 234: Bo Qiaohui 46
"Father, hold me,"
In the Xuanshi Hall, Liu Rong woke up and crawled over her brother, sat on the edge of the bed, rubbing her eyes, still humming and asking her father to hold her.
Liu Qi, who was reviewing memorials not far away, stood up, waved away the wet nurse who was about to go forward to pick up the princess, stood up, walked to his daughter, and pulled the little girl into his arms.
"Mother, mother!"
As soon as he was in his father's arms, Liu Rong began to grab his clothes and look around for his mother.
"Can't your father accompany you?" Liu Qi grabbed her little hand and shook it, feeling a little jealous.
"Let's go, mother!"
Unfortunately, Liu Rong did not give her father any face, and only used her father as a means of transportation to find her dear mother. Seeing Liu Qi stopped where he was and refused to move, she became very anxious.
Liu Qi sighed and took only two steps, carrying Liu Rong, when he heard movement behind him. Turning around, he saw Che'er had woken up, staring with those big eyes and pouting, looking very angry.
"Father is bad, sister is bad,"
"Who are you calling bad?" Liu Qi walked over and stretched out his arms. Che'er hugged his neck obediently, but turned her little face to the other side, leaving only a round profile. She still muttered unconvincedly: "Bad, father is very bad!"
"Besides, I will only take Rong Cong to find my mother."
Liu Qi's words made his son turn his head back, his eyes glaring wider than a cow's. Seeing that his father ignored him, he leaned forward and glared: "I want the Queen Mother."
"Oh, isn't it Father who is bad? Just crawl on your own to find Mother."
Liu Qi looked at his son with amusement, as if he wanted to put his eyes close to his face and glare at him. He rubbed his chin against Che'er's face. Che'er dodged desperately and kept trying to support his face with his hands.
"Climb, let me down!"
Liu Che was a man of great character. Seeing his annoying father laughing loudly, he immediately twisted and turned in his arms, really intending to crawl to his mother's palace on his own. Liu Qi almost couldn't hold the little calf for a moment. He was so scared that he quickly tightened his arms and finally controlled him.
"You little brat is so angry. Come on, go find your mother."
Liu Qi angrily stuffed Che'er to A'man who had just come out, and went in first with Rong'er in his arms.
Ah Man looked at Che'er blankly, earning a disapproving look from the Crown Prince: "Catch up quickly."
"Oh, okay, Your Highness, please sit tight."
Ah Man held Che'er in his arms and ran in quickly.
As soon as she entered, she saw Liu Qi sitting next to Qiaohui, Liu Rong lying on Qiaohui's lap, and the three of them were chatting and laughing. Seeing Che'er come in, Qiaohui quickly opened her arms, and Che'er's originally tense face immediately fell, and her little mouth pouted with grievance.
"Hold~~"
Before Che'er could fall into his mother's fragrant arms, Liu Qi's long arms came across and said, "Your mother is pregnant, how can she handle the two of you?"
Che'er didn't understand, and was being held by him. Her two little hands were still fiddling around, trying hard to get closer to Qiaohui.
"Che'er is still young. How could he understand what Your Majesty is saying?" Qiaohui took the child and patted him soothingly. Che'er then calmed down in his arms and sat quietly.
Liu Qi picked up the small garment she had placed aside and knew at a glance that it was for the unborn child in her belly. He felt even more jealous: "A few days ago, I saw you making a tiger-head hat for Che'er and a pair of shoes for Rong'er, and today you are making small garments for this one in your belly."
"What about mine? I'm not important in your heart anymore."
The bastard was going crazy again, and he started to cause her a lot of trouble with his words.
Bo Qiaohui glared at him speechlessly: "Your Majesty is already an adult, and you still want to compete for favor with children?"
"Besides, could it be that the inner garment Your Majesty is wearing right now was conjured up by me out of thin air?"
Seeing that she was about to get angry, Liu Qi quickly put his arm around her shoulders and said, "It's my fault. I just feel bad for you. You're tired enough with palace duties every day. What if you hurt your eyes by doing this?"
That sounds like something a human being would say. Bo Qiaohui stuffed both Rong'er and Che'er into his arms and looked at him with a smile: "This concubine is not tired at all. Your Majesty is here to help me share the burden. Without these two little monkeys bothering me every day, I don't know how much more relaxed I would be."
"You are free now. My Xuanshi Hall is almost turned upside down by those two." As soon as the brother and sister Liu Che and Liu Rong were in his arms, they began to struggle like twisted candies. Occasionally, when they met each other, they would fight. After a while, the supreme emperor was worn out by them and lost his temper. He held one of them under his arms and temporarily subdued them.
Qiaohui sat on the side, holding her belly and watching the show. She saw the three of them fighting, and she almost asked Le Chi to pass her a plate of melon seeds.
"If I stay with them for another four months, I'm afraid my life will be shortened."
Having seen enough of the show, Qiao Hui waved her hand, and Le Chi and Ah Man each picked up the child. Liu Qi felt relieved, and for a moment, his eyes turned into horror when he looked at Qiao Hui's belly.
"Pooh, pooh, pooh, what is Your Majesty talking about? Aren't you afraid of taboos?" Qiaohui spat a few times, but still mercifully let Le Chi and A Man take the child to play on the bed, while she stayed with His Majesty the Emperor, who had been tortured by the child these days, to comfort his wounded heart.
Liu Qi lay on Qiao Hui's lap, finally relaxing. Now that they were alone in the room, Liu Qi spoke slowly and sheepishly, "After these past few months of raising these two children, I finally understand how difficult it is for you."
"I used to think these children were just adorable, but these days... to be honest, I'm a little scared. Their spirits are just so strong."
Liu Qi turned his head and looked at her: "Do you think I also made trouble for my mother like this when I was young?"
"I've never seen one before, but although babies have different personalities, they all look like this."
Bo Qiaohui also looked down at him, wondering to herself, could it be that Liu Qi, after having looked after her child for two months, had actually learned something from her? Was he suddenly convinced that mothers were the only good people in the world?
Liu Qi suddenly laughed: "Yes, I didn't know that myself. In my memory, my mother was always so busy that she even forgot my and my sister's birthdays."
"However, she has never missed Wu'er's birthday. I still remember one time when my mother had originally planned to celebrate my birthday with me, but Wu'er happened to have a fever that day. So my mother stayed by his side, holding him all day, and even forgot to take a look at me."
Liu Qi's eyes grew long and lingering. "Back then, I always tried my best, hoping that her eyes would stay on me."
"Your Majesty must have felt very aggrieved at that time."
"Yeah, I feel very wronged."
Liu Qi spoke openly of the most embarrassing moments of his childhood, even with a touch of nostalgia. This was perhaps the benefit of power; even the pain of the past had become a special memory to savor.
