Zhou Qiongyue was still panicking. She and Yuan Bohua had been married for so many years, so they definitely had feelings for each other. Of course, she didn't want anything to happen to Yuan Bohua, but now she saw her eldest son's panicked eyes.
Zhou Qiongyue feigned composure and comforted the two children, "You must trust your father. He won't be defeated so easily. Besides, your father loves you more than you think."
As soon as Zhou Qiongyue finished speaking, both sons fell silent. Of the two sons, Yuan Chaochang had a deeper relationship with Yuan Bohua, and he admired his father very much.
Even though Yuan Bohua was fighting at the border in recent years, Yuan Chaochang often wrote to Yuan Bohua.
As long as Yuan Bohua was free, he would write back to his son. As for why it was by the way, it was of course because Yuan Bohua had time to write to his princess first.
So at this moment, Yuan Chaochang's heart was full of anxiety, worry and helplessness.
When his father got into trouble this time, Yuan Chaochang felt deeply weak and swore in his heart that he must work harder in the future to provide a support for his family at this critical moment.
At this moment, Yuan Chaochang's future plans changed drastically. He had previously studied step by step and waited for the title to be inherited. Now he was determined to study hard and prepare to take the imperial examination to enter the officialdom based on his own ability.
Otherwise, waiting to inherit the title would be too slow. Yuan Chaochang didn't want to be so passive every time something happened.
I can't even get any inside information.
Although Yuan Chaokang's feelings for his father are not as deep as his brother's, Yuan Chaokang also does not want Yuan Bohua to get into trouble.
In particular, Yuan Chaokang could see that although his mother didn't say it on the surface, she still cared about his father in her heart, so he didn't want anything to happen to Yuan Bohua.
Yuan Chaokang didn't know how to comfort him. "Don't worry, mother and brother. Father will be fine. The emperor has already sent the best doctor."
Zhou Qiongyue also tried her best to remain calm, "Well, the three of us, mother and son, are waiting for him in Yuan'an!"
At this time, Zhou Qiongyue was thinking in her heart that she was waiting to see if there would be any other news from her caravan.
Just as Zhou Qiongyue, her mother and her two children finished their conversation, someone reported back that Marquis Cheng'en and his wife had arrived.
Of course Zhou Qiongyue had to go to greet her in person. When Zhou Qiongyue was about to leave, Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang followed closely beside her mother.
When Zhou Qiongyue, her mother and son arrived at the front yard, Zhou Wencan and Jin were already looking forward to it.
When Zhou Wencan and Jin saw their daughter and grandson coming, they hurried to greet them and both took a subtle look at their daughter's condition.
Seeing her father and mother like this, Zhou Qiongyue knew what she was talking about. The two elders were worried about her.
Zhou Qiongyue didn't want her parents, who were already old, to worry about her. "Don't worry, Dad and Mom. I can handle it. Besides, the prince is just unconscious. I trust him."
Zhou Wencan felt even more distressed when he saw his daughter cheer up and comfort him and his wife.
Zhou Wencan made a decision in his heart and turned to send Jin and the two children away. "Madam, take Chang'er and Kang'er out for a walk. I have something to say to Yue'er."
Jin knew the character of her own master, and knew that since the master had sent them away, the next words he would say were not suitable for them to hear.
Sometimes knowing more is not always better. Jin immediately stood up, called her two grandsons and walked outside.
Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang also tactfully followed their grandmother Jin out.
After Zhou Wencan and the others left, he dipped his hand in tea and wrote on the table, "Wake up!"
Zhou Qiongyue looked up at her father in surprise, then raised her hand and poured the remaining tea on the words, "Thank you, Dad."
Zhou Qiongyue didn't ask why her father got the news faster than the emperor. She just smiled and thanked him.
Zhou Wencan was in a good mood when he saw his daughter's frown finally unravel. "Since your mother and I are here, you should serve some of your cook's specialties so that your mother and I can enjoy them to our heart's content before we go back."
"How about you stay at the palace with your daughter for a few days? Now that the prince is in trouble, it makes sense for you to stay at the palace with your daughter for a few days."
Zhou Qiongyue nodded as she spoke, she felt that her reason was impeccable.
Seeing his daughter's expectant eyes, Zhou Wencan nodded involuntarily, "Okay, stay for a few days! You can have someone clean up the yard!"
When Zhou Qiongyue saw that her father had agreed, she immediately called Gu Le outside to clean up a yard in the front yard. She moved so quickly because she was afraid that her father would go back on his word.
When Jin, Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang came back, Zhou Qiongyue was already playing Go with her father.
It would be more accurate to say that Zhou Wencan was trying to cheer up his daughter than to say that they were playing chess. Zhou Qiongyue was not good at this game to begin with, so she definitely couldn't beat Zhou Wencan, the old fox.
So Zhou Qiongyue always regretted her moves, and Zhou Wencan just watched his daughter regret it with a smile.
Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang, who had come in to see this scene, were quite shocked. They had both been taught from childhood that playing chess requires good character, and that not regretting one's moves was just the most basic.
Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang immediately turned their questioning gazes towards their grandmother, Jin. Jin, however, didn't think anything of it. She caught the gazes of her two grandchildren and asked, "Are you two hungry? Would you like some snacks?"
Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang just wanted to ask, why is their grandfather such an easy-going person!
However, they did not get the approval of their grandmother, and they knew that their grandfather was a kind elder only in front of their mother.
Yuan Chaochang and Yuan Chaokang quickly shook their heads, "Grandma, we're not hungry."
After the two children finished speaking, they squeezed to both sides of Zhou Qiongyue and started talking at once, giving her advice.
Zhou Wencan is certainly not afraid of the two children. Although one person may have weaker skills than three, this does not apply when playing chess, especially against an old fox like him.
Sure enough, after a while, Zhou Wencan took away a large portion of Zhou Qiongyue's chess pieces, and then the three of them, mother and son, started quarreling among themselves and began to fight for dominance.
In the end, Zhou Qiongyue used her identity as a mother to successfully shut up the two children.
Zhou Wencan watched his daughter racking her brains, which made her regret countless moves. Zhou Wencan then took the initiative to make several wrong moves, which allowed Zhou Qiongyue to successfully win the game.
Although Zhou Qiongyue is aware of her own chess level, she is also very happy that her father pampers her and lets her win.
Yuan Chaokang looked at his mother's happy expression after she won. He glanced at his grandfather thoughtfully, thinking to himself that the old fox was indeed an old fox.
He is better than anyone at making people happy, but what Yuan Chaokang is thinking at this moment is that he wants to learn his grandfather's method of making his mother happy, and let his grandfather teach his apprentice and starve himself to death.
From now on, he will be the person who is best at making his mother happy.
