Chapter 568 Did I become sworn brothers with Bao Gong last night?
The two children held their breath and waited.
Xiao Bao opened his eyes wide with a calm expression.
Just then, Xiao Tang got up, groggily rubbing her messy hair and touching her cheek.
Throughout the entire process, she showed no signs of losing her temper.
Da Bao and Er Bao exchanged glances.
It's very likely that Mom wasn't fully awake yet, so she didn't hear her sister call her a lazy pig.
The two older brothers secretly rejoiced.
Just as they breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Bao frowned and reminded Xiao Tang with a serious expression, "Lazy Mommy, why aren't you up yet?"
Upon hearing the word "lazy pig," the two older brothers simultaneously thought to themselves: We're doomed...
Xiao Tang reached out and pinched Xiao Bao's soft, chubby cheeks.
"You brat, what are you saying about me?"
Xiao Bao, whose cheeks were being pinched, puffed out his cheeks and said, "Mommy, I didn't scold you. I was just explaining this to you normally."
Xiao Tang certainly wouldn't stoop to her daughter's level.
She hummed softly twice, but didn't say anything.
After washing up, I took the three children out the door, where a large crowd had gathered outside the palace gates.
The momentum was truly astonishing.
This was also quite... puzzling to Xiao Tang.
Just as she was about to raise her question, all the ministers knelt down in unison.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects and welcome Your Majesty back to the palace!"
The shouts rose up like a tidal wave, vibrating Xiao Tang's eardrums.
Xiao Tang looked at the dark mass of people in surprise, unsure of what to think.
She was neither flattered nor intimidated.
It's obvious even to a fool that it was Emperor Jingling who ordered these ministers to come and pay their respects.
The leading minister secretly looked up and was able to catch a glimpse of the Empress's voice and smile.
"Your Majesty..." he called out weakly to Xiao Tang.
Xiao Tang came to her senses and, as if realizing something, said, "Rise, all of you."
Those four simple words carried a hint of helplessness and a smile.
Actually, it wasn't a big deal, but the ministers' dramatic actions made her feel like she was about to ascend to heaven.
"If you ministers have nothing else to say, you may leave now."
She was in a hurry to see Ruyi.
I have no interest in chatting with these old men.
It's likely that the ministers wouldn't dare to chat idly with her.
Upon hearing Xiao Tang's words, the ministers immediately dispersed like birds and beasts.
She looked at the three children and said, "Come on, I'll take you to see Aunt Ruyi. When you see her, remember to be sweet-talking."
"Yes, Mother!"
The three little brats answered Xiao Tang at the same time.
Now Ruyi has become the most powerful head palace maid in the palace, although she does not have to serve any master—but there are no other women in the entire palace.
She married Yan Jiu two years ago.
With Di Jingling's tacit approval, they agreed to get married and now have a baby who is only six months old.
When Ruyi saw Xiao Tang, the child in her arms suddenly lost its appeal.
She shoved the child directly into Yan Jiu's arms and strode towards Xiao Tang.
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty the Empress!"
Ruyi only vaguely heard this morning that Xiao Tang had returned to the palace.
She had planned to calm the child down before seeing Xiao Tang.
I didn't expect Xiao Tang to have already arrived...
"It is this servant who should go to see Your Highness, why did Your Highness come first?"
Xiao Tang patted her on the shoulder, "What nonsense are you talking about? Everyone looks the same to everyone else."
She turned her head and gave instructions to the three children.
She didn't say anything, but just winked at the three children.
The three children immediately knew what to do and cheerfully greeted, "Hello, Aunt Ruyi."
"My name is Da Bao."
"My name is Erbao!"
"Me too! Me too! My name is Xiaobao!"
The three children introduced themselves.
But this name...
Ruyi's lips twitched. She didn't know how to praise it, and could only awkwardly squeeze out, "It's...it's such an easy name to remember."
There was nothing she could do; she dared not say that the Empress's naming style was too casual.
Otherwise, you'll definitely get a cold shoulder from the Empress.
Xiao Tang didn't offer any further explanation and took their six-month-old baby from Yan Jiu's arms.
Da Bao looked at him in surprise: "Did we always do this?"
"Yes, when you were six months old, you were much smaller than this baby."
After all, these three babies were triplets, and they were very weak when they came out of the womb.
Ruyi laughed as well, "Your Majesty must be very tired taking care of three children all by yourself, right?"
She's almost gone crazy.
Xiao Tang remained silent.
However, his expression said it all.
I have to say, the little ones are so much fun.
Especially the chubby little baby in her arms.
It's milky and has a milky scent.
"Is he a boy?" Xiao Tang asked.
Ruyi gently covered her mouth, "Yes, it's a boy."
"Oh my, it smells so good, may I give it a kiss?"
This question left the couple completely baffled.
For a moment, they didn't know how to answer Xiao Tang's question. They just felt that... as long as His Majesty wasn't present, they could kiss however they wanted.
It is an honor for their baby to be kissed by the Empress.
Seeing the couple's slightly embarrassed yet very serious expressions, Xiao Tang quickly gave the baby a kiss on the cheek.
