Chapter 144: The Extinct God of War General x The Delicate Little Doctor 44

The three little ones held hands and got on the carriage to the East Palace. Qu Fengyan looked at them lovingly, smiled and said, "Don't make a fuss when you see your little brother. You, as brothers and sisters, must be sensible, understand?"

Yaoyue climbed onto Qu Fengyan's knees with a grunt, raised his head and said, "Aunt, my second brother said that all the younger brothers are brats and he doesn't like them."

Qu Fengyan's mouth twitched. She didn't know how two-year-old boys could have such rich thoughts. Taking this opportunity, Qu Fengyan said to the silent Yao Wen, "Wen'er, your uncle has mentioned to you that you should stay in Beishang. What do you think about it?"

Yao Wen tilted his head and thought, "My uncle said that if I don't stay in Beishang, then if the successor to the throne is not a wise ruler, the people will definitely suffer. For the sake of the people of the world, Yao Wen decided to stay in Beishang."

Qu Fengyan nodded with satisfaction. She loved all of Qiao Jinjin's children from the bottom of her heart, and treated the sensible and intelligent Yao Wen as her own son. If Yao Wen could stay in Beishang, she would definitely protect him.

The five little guys have already had their milk and are sleeping soundly. Yaowen, Yaochen and Yaoyue are looking at them eagerly. Yaochen pouted his lips in disdain and said, "Daddy, my little brother is not good-looking."

Xu Hanye raised his eyebrows and said jokingly, "Oh? Yaochen thinks your little brother is ugly, but you were uglier than your little brother when you were born."

Yaochen opened his mouth and was about to cry, but Yaowen, who had reacted, covered his mouth and said, "Don't cry, are you childish? You are already a grown-up boy. If you cry again, I won't play with you anymore."

Xu Hanye lowered his eyes and narrowed them. Why did he always feel that his eldest son was too smart? If it weren't for his appearance, people would believe that he was only five or six years old.

"You're awake. Your brother has seen it too. Go out and play. Don't disturb your mother's rest."

Three months later

After the children’s hundred-day banquet, Jinjin Qiao and Xu Hanye decided to return to Xiyan. They had been in Beishang for more than a year and didn’t know how Xiyan was doing now.

The old duke and his wife sent them letters urging them to go back one after another. Xu Hanye decided to return to Xiyan in ten days. After arranging everything, he wanted to take Jin Jin Qiao to travel around and enjoy this life while he was still young.

Xu Hanye called Yao Wen to his front, gently touched his head and said, "Wen'er, your uncle said that you agreed to stay here."

"Father respects your decision. You are very smart. Father also believes that you will be a wise ruler in the future."

Yao Wen pouted, his eyes were a little moist, "Father, you and mother should come to see Yao Wen often in the future."

Aunt Qiao listened to the conversation between Xu Hanye and Yao Wen, and her eyelashes trembled behind her closed eyes.

"System, even though I have many children, it's still hard to say goodbye to them."

[Although you used painless fertility pills during childbirth, it is your child after all, how could it not be uncomfortable?]

[To me, you are just being stubborn]

Aunt Qiao knew that Yao Wen would definitely stay in Beishang. In the next few days, Aunt Qiao often called Yao Wen to her side to keep her company.

On the day of separation, Aunt Qiao reluctantly said goodbye to the Queen Mother and Chu Tianxing, then picked up Yao Wen and kissed him again and again until it was late. Then she got on the carriage without looking back, for she was afraid that she would not be willing to leave if she turned back.

Chu Tianxing picked up Yao Wen, looked at his gloomy face and said, "Cry if you want to. You are still a child."

Yao Wen looked at Chu Tianxing with a little contempt and said, "How can a man shed tears because of separation? This is not what a gentleman does."

After that, he patted Chu Tianxing's arm and said, "Put me down. The homework assigned by the master has not been completed yet."

The Queen Mother looked at Yao Wen distressedly and said to Chu Tianxing, "Wen'er is so sensible. I feel so distressed for him."

Yao Wen looked at the Queen Mother in confusion and said, "Grandma, Yao Wen feels that the current situation is good enough. I like studying with the Grand Tutor and I also like my uncle's teachings."

Sitting in the carriage and looking at the imperial city getting farther and farther away, Aunt Qiao felt a little depressed. However, when she saw Xu Hanye holding her tightly and the children in the arms of his wet nurse, her depressed mood dissipated a lot.

It took more than three months to travel from Beishang to Xiyan. By the time we reached Xiyan, the five babies were already seven months old.

Yaochen and Yaoyue have also adapted to the identities of older brothers and sisters.

The old Duke and his wife didn't seem to have changed much. Instead, they seemed more stable. I guess it was because they had more grandchildren, which made them feel more at ease.

The old Duke looked at his seven children with a smile, and said with great pride, "Now, there is no one in the court who does not envy me. It is good to have so many good grandchildren. As a father, I want to resign from my post."

The Duke's wife held Aunt Qiao's hand from the moment she saw her, and even pushed Xu Hanye to the side. "Aunt, don't leave again now that you're back."

Xu Hanye frowned and said, "Mother, my son and aunt are going to take a two-month break and then go out to play. I'm sorry to bother you to take care of the children."

The Duke's wife looked at Xu Hanye in disbelief and said, "You unfilial son, you you you..."

The Duke's wife was so angry that she couldn't speak. Aunt Qiao rolled her eyes at Xu Hanye and said, "Husband, we just got back, don't say these things."

"Are you still going to the palace to see the emperor? Go quickly and come back soon."

Xu Hanye felt aggrieved and looked at Qiao Jinjin meaningfully. Qiao Jinjin immediately felt a little uneasy. It was over. She would be tortured to death again that night.

Xu Hanye chatted with the emperor for several hours in the palace and felt relaxed when he left.

Binglie's face was somewhat solemn as he asked, "Master, have you really handed over the military token to the emperor?"

Xu Hanye curled his lips and said, "Well, Binglie, you should know what I'm thinking now. I don't want to be a general at all. You and Xiao Shun should get married and have children."

Binglie looked serious, glanced at Xiao Shun who was rarely silent, and said, "Since the master got a mistress, he has changed. Xiao Shun, what do you think?"

Xiao Shun raised his eyes and snorted, "Ideas? Go get married. You watch the master and mistress being affectionate all day long, and you are not in a hurry?"

Binglie was a little confused. "Have you found a girl you like?"

Xiao Shun looked at Binglie with disdain and said, "Of course I have, just like you, an old bachelor."

The girl that Xiao Shun was talking about was actually Hong'er.

When Aunt Qiao first heard the news, she couldn't believe it. Looking at Xiao Shun kneeling in front of her and begging for marriage, Aunt Qiao twitched her lips and said, "When did you two fall in love with each other? How come I have no idea?"

Hong'er, who was standing behind Aunt Qiao, blushed and glared at Xiao Shun in annoyance, causing Xiao Shun to smile ingratiatingly, "Madam, I have fallen deeply in love with Hong'er, and she is the only one I can have."
