With three little kids standing in front of him, Yin Huaixu spoke to them seriously and frankly.
"As it stands now, I only have three sons, but there is only one throne.
Among the three of you brothers, only one can obtain the throne and become emperor.
However, at the moment, I can’t tell who among you is more suitable to be the emperor.
All three of you will receive instruction from the Grand Tutor, who will teach you how to be a ruler.
When you are fifteen years old, I will examine all aspects of you, from how you behave as a person, how you rule as a king, your political thinking, to your martial arts skills. I will examine them all.
At that time, I will choose someone from among you who is suitable to be the emperor and make him the crown prince.
In the next twelve years, I hope you will study hard and be serious people.
The most important thing is harmony among brothers.
You are triplets, born from the same mother.
If you brothers plot against each other, it will make your mother sad.
Then I will not be soft on you!"
As Yin Huaixu spoke, his face turned cold and his voice became harsh.
The pressure he unconsciously exuded made the three little kids purse their lips tightly and stand up straight.
The eldest brother, Yin Chenxuan, stood out with a chubby face.
"Don't worry, Father. The ministers will never play tricks on each other!"
Naituanzi's voice was too babyish and his pronunciation was unclear. His one sentence immediately broke the originally serious atmosphere.
Ying Xixi, who was sitting on the side watching, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The eldest son pouted and said in a baby voice, "Mom, are you laughing at Achen?"
Seeing this aggrieved look on his face, Ying Xixi's heart almost melted.
“No, Achen is so cute, how could mother laugh at you.
Come here, come here."
Ying Xixi greeted her sons.
The three little kids ran over with their short legs and threw themselves into their mother's soft and sweet arms.
"Your father has already made it very clear. Although you are still young, you must remember it from now on.
You are brothers and sisters. In this world, besides your parents, you are the closest blood relatives.
You must not let external things hurt the relationship between brothers, understand?"
"Mother, what time do we have?"
Three little baby voices answered in unison.
Yin Huaixu stood aside with a stern face, "Now that you know, get out of your mother's arms! Stand up straight!
You're already three years old, but you're still clinging to your mother like a baby!"
The three little balls of milk left their mother's arms angrily.
"Father, you are jealous that we can be hugged by mother!"
The youngest complained angrily.
Yin Huaixu choked, "You kid!"
The third little one pouted and threw himself into his mother's arms again, seeking protection.
Ying Xixi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Ah Xu, the children are only three years old. They are already little babies. You can stop being so harsh on them now."
The three little balls of milk all nodded their heads, and their chubby cheeks swayed.
Yin Huaixu held his forehead, closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Everything this strict father says is wrong now.
Ying Xixi pinched the chubby little balls one by one and said, "Remember what Daddy and Mommy said to you just now, go play."
"Okay~"
The three little balls of milk bowed politely and left.
As soon as the children left, Yin Huaixu sat next to Ying Xixi and leaned against her as if he had no bones.
"Xixi, do you love the children more than me?"
Yin Huaixu looked aggrieved and acted like a spoiled child.
Ying Xixi looked at his handsome face and couldn't even get angry.
“The kids are three years old, why are you still asking this question?
You are already old, why are you still vying for favor with a three-year-old baby? "
Yin Huaixu: “???”
"I'm old?" Yin Huaixu smiled, because he was angry.
"Xixi, do you dislike my age? I'm only five years older than you!"
Ying Xixi cleared her throat and said, "Don't be angry, I don't dislike your age.
This is just something I said casually.
You are more than 20 years older than the children, so why are you still competing with them for their affection?"
Yin Huaixu's long arms were wrapped around Ying Xixi's waist like an iron clamp.
"I don't care! Just tell me if you dislike my age!"
Men not only don't want to be told that they can't do it, they also don't want to be told that they are old.
Ying Xixi now deeply understands this.
She had no choice but to coax Yin Huaixu like a child, "Ah Xu, you misunderstood. I love you so much, how could I dislike you.
You are so powerful, so handsome, and so gentle!"
Yin Huaixu's lips curled up so much from the praise that he couldn't suppress them anymore.
"Really? Then I'll believe you for now."
"How can it be temporary? You have to trust me all the time."
Ying Xixi held Yin Huaixu's face and kissed him gently to comfort him.
It turns out that coaxing a man is just like coaxing a child.
........
When the triplets were five years old, Ying Xixi started considering having a second child.
She wanted to have a little girl.
A soft, cute and adorable little daughter.
She told Yin Huaixu about this.
Yin Huaixu hugged her and rubbed his chin against the top of her head.
"We can't decide whether to have a boy or a girl. What if it's still a boy?"
"Then keep having more children? Until you give birth to a daughter?"
Ying Xixi teased him with a smile.
Yin Huaixu imagined it and found it difficult to accept the idea of having many sons.
"Then let's go to Kaiyuan Temple to burn incense and pray, hoping that our next child will be a daughter.
