"Besides Mu Yao, there are only three other territories: the Western Region, the Southern Border, and the Northern Border. Your family has gathered spies from the other two. What great treasure is hidden in the Duke of Qing's Mansion that makes these people so jealous?"
Xing Guoguo took a bite of the apple and couldn't help complaining.
Chen Yunxi touched his nose uncomfortably and said, "Wife, do you think there is a possibility that Beijiang has also arranged spies in the mansion?"
Xin Guoguo: ...
"Great, that's not surprising at all! Who is it?"
She narrowed her eyes and smiled in a particularly perfunctory manner.
"Uh... just a little maid, she hasn't climbed up yet."
"One for the second and third wives. Could this little maid be coming for the first wife?"
Shen Yunxi stood up: "I suddenly remembered that there is something else, I..."
"Oh...it seems it's aimed at you." Xin Guoguo raised her eyebrows.
She looked him up and down and said, "With your frail body, how depressed must she be!"
Chen Yunxi: ...
Stop and say, "Wife~"
Xin Guoguo: π_π
"Please be normal, thank you!"
Seeing his wife's stubborn attitude, Shen Yunxi could only sigh helplessly and sit back on the couch.
"As you know, my father was once a special envoy to the Western Regions and had connections with the thirty-six kingdoms there. My parents were originally the king and queen of Anlan.
"'An Lan has a treasure', I don't know who spread this rumor. An Lan was destroyed. My father brought me back. But my identity is not a secret in other countries."
Thinking of his biological parents whom he had never met, Shen Yunxi felt a little sad.
Xin Guoguo understood and sympathized with him: "Poor kid! He really is a treasure! By the way, do you know where the treasure is?"
All the negative emotions instantly shattered into pieces, and Shen Yunxi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry:
"Where is the treasure? Besides, I was just a child when I left!"
But his wife smacked her lips, a look of regret on her face: "What a pity! Then tell me, is it possible that father would know?"
Chen Yunxi: ...
"Give up! Father doesn't know about it either!"
Xin Guoguo: ...
Okay!

The Shen family's incident was really a big deal.
Neither Emperor Mu nor Duke Qing had imagined that such a small Duke's Mansion could hide so many spies.
Duke Qing has been very busy these days and looks a little older.
In just one month, the entire palace was almost completely replaced.
Although Yu was not a spy, she inadvertently leaked a lot of confidential information to Old Madam Shen, so the Duke of Qing's Mansion could no longer keep her.
Besides, Madam Shen is a spy, so Second Uncle Shen and Third Uncle Shen can't stay in the mansion.
The Duke of Qing's Mansion was directly divided.
Second Uncle Shen was a man of affection and righteousness. He left Kyoto with his wife, children and the whole family.
Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen had a huge fight over the affair with their mistress, but Aunt Shen had just given birth to a legitimate son and was unwilling to divorce.
Although the couple moved out, they quarreled every day.
Later, Uncle Shen simply stopped going home.
Xin Guoguo and the others no longer paid attention to the affairs of the other two rooms.
In order to ensure Chen Yunxi's safety, the family finally decided that Chen Yunxi would live with Xin Guoguo in the general's mansion in the future.
After all, compared to the Duke's Mansion which is full of loopholes, the General's Mansion is much safer!
No one can guarantee that after this incident, other spies will be taken advantage of to be deployed.
Shen Yunxi raised both hands in agreement.
As soon as he discussed it with his parents, he couldn't wait to come back and tell Xin Guoguo the good news.
Then he arranged for someone to pack up.
Xin Guoguo: ...
"Aren't you too impatient?"
It seems as if the Duke of Qing's Mansion is abusing you.
Shen Yunxi winked at her and said, "Wife, your coming-of-age ceremony will be held soon."
Xin Guoguo instantly understood the meaning in the man's eyes: ...
Turn your head away.
It's too shameful to watch!
Xin Guoguo's coming-of-age ceremony was held at the Duke of Qing's mansion.
Chen Yunxi originally wanted to go back to the general's mansion to do it, but Mrs. Mo refused to agree.
The couple can only keep it for the time being.
They have a lot of stuff anyway, and it will take quite a while to move them all slowly!
After the coming-of-age ceremony, Chen Yunxi couldn't wait to take his wife back to the general's mansion.
"It's still more comfortable to be in your own territory!"
Chen Yunxi hugged his wife and felt that this was the happiest thing in life.
Until little Shen Bei was born.
Looking at his wife who was so devoted to his son and refused to even glance at him, Shen Yunxi looked aggrieved:
"Wife, look at me! Look at your poor husband! He has been alone in the empty room for several days!"
*
Little Shen Bei often felt that he must be a child picked up by his father from outside.
I heard that Dad was picked up by Grandpa.
They are father and son of the same blood.
"Shen Bei! You are already a four-year-old baby, not a three-year-old child. You can't stick to your mother anymore!"
Listen, listen, is this something a father could say?
Little Shen Bei hummed, turned around and hugged his mother tighter:
"Mom promised me that she would sleep with me today! Lululu, Daddy will sleep alone! Humph! Daddy, shame on you, you are an adult, and you still want Mom to sleep with you!"
"That's my wife! If you want someone to sleep with you, just find yourself a wife!"
