Chapter 355: Have Two Children, Yuner Likes Both
Inside the palace, Zhao Yunci sat high on the dragon throne, looking at the childish little figure below, a trace of surprise flashed across her face.
The envoy sent by the State of Zheng was actually a child of five or six years old?!
This is absolutely ridiculous!
"Xiao Fuzi!" There was a hint of barely perceptible anger in Zhao Yunci's voice.
The new chief eunuch, Xiao Fuzi, bent his waist, stepped forward, and smiled flatteringly: "What are your instructions, Your Majesty?"
Zhao Yunci narrowed her eyes and said in an unhappy tone, "Does the State of Zheng have no one left to serve? They actually sent a brat as an envoy!"
Xiao Fuzi is Ma Fuhai's godson and is the best at observing people's expressions.
He immediately lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, calm down. I have inquired about this. This young prince is no ordinary person! He is Gu Junze's godson."
Zhao Yunci was confused. She glanced at the father and son standing below and twitched her lips.
This Gu Junze really gives him surprises everywhere!
"My great general who protects the country is indeed extraordinary!" Zhao Yunci's voice was a little playful, a little tentative, and a little elusive.
"Even Prince Zheng is your godson! This ability really makes me look at you with new eyes!"
There was no emotion on Gu Junze's face. He was about to speak and give the speech he had prepared long ago.
"father!"
A clear child's voice rang out without warning.
Brother Yun tugged at Gu Junze's sleeve, raised his little face, and completely ignored the occasion.
"When are we going to go find mom? Yun'er misses her!"
Gu Junze lowered his arm and gently pressed Yun Ge'er's little head, his voice steady.
"When Yun'er was in trouble earlier, my wife lent a helping hand and acknowledged me as her father."
Although she said that, her eyes were looking at Yun Ge'er, and the smile in her eyes was almost overflowing.
"As for this mission, it was the new ruler of Zheng, out of sympathy for my younger brother's longing, who allowed him to accompany the delegation. This was an internal decision of Zheng and had nothing to do with me."
His explanation was reasonable and flawless, clearly separating official business from personal feelings.
Zhao Yunci sat still, tapping the armrests of the dragon throne with his fingers, making regular, light sounds.
After a moment, a gentle smile appeared on his face.
"I see. I was worrying too much."
"I am very pleased that the King of Chu has come from afar!" Zhao Yunci put on a smile and acted courteous.
"Come, prepare a banquet. I want to treat this young King of Chu well!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yun Ge'er thanked him in a baby voice.
But she turned her head to look at Gu Junze, her little face full of grievance.
"Dad, Yun'er wants to be with you, not eat."
Zhao Yunci's smile froze on his face. This kid really didn't give him any face!
"Your Highness the Prince of Chu is still young and has just arrived. He must be unfamiliar with everything in the capital."
Zhao Yunci suppressed her displeasure and looked at Gu Junze with a forced smile.
"General Gu, how about you take good care of the King of Chu on my behalf and help him adapt to life in the capital as quickly as possible?"
This isn't "taking care" at all; it's clearly surveillance! Zhao Yunci wants to use Yun Ge'er to test Gu Junze's loyalty!
Gu Junze knew it well, but he remained calm and said, "I obey your command!"
After leaving the palace, Gu Junze held Yun Ge'er in his arms, jumped on his horse, and headed straight for the Chu family.
"Dad, where are we going?" Yun Ge'er asked curiously.
"Go see your mother!" Gu Junze's voice was filled with a barely perceptible excitement.
The Chu family was decorated with lights and was in a festive mood.
"Mom!" A clear and loud child's voice cut through the festive and noisy atmosphere in the Chu family's courtyard.
Chu Ruohan was watching with a smile as Chu Yueshu tried on a new phoenix hairpin.
Hearing this voice, the whole person froze suddenly, and then turned around abruptly!
Her eyes eagerly passed through the crowd and fell on the small figure running towards her at the gate of the courtyard!
Brocade robe and jade belt, carved from jade!
"Brother Yun?" Chu Ruohan's voice trembled, and she could hardly believe her eyes!
The envoy from Zheng State is really him...
Yun Ge'er rushed over like a cannonball and hugged Chu Ruohan's thighs, his little face full of grievance.
"Mom! Yun'er misses you so much! Yun'er misses you every day!" He cried, his voice choked with sobs, and rubbed his little head against Chu Ruohan's skirt.
Chu Ruohan's eyes instantly became moist. Her brother Yun actually came back!
"Mom misses you too! I miss you so much!"
"Mom, Yun'er misses daddy too!" Yun'er had had enough of staying in Chu Ruohan's arms.
Then he let go of his hand, looked with his bright eyes at Gu Junze who followed closely behind him and stepped into the courtyard, and then opened his little arms and pounced on him.
"father!"
Gu Junze strode forward, bent down and picked up his son who was flying towards him.
She tightened her arms and gave him a fierce kiss on his chubby little face, with unwavering tenderness in her eyes.
"Brother! Brother!" A baby voice sounded.
Xuan Ge'er ran over staggeringly, hugged Yun Ge'er's legs, patted his belly with his little hands, and babbled.
"I want to! I want to!"
Yun Ge'er looked down at his brother who was hugging his legs and was stunned for a moment.
Then he puffed out his chest proudly and announced loudly to everyone in the yard with a very proud tone.
"Brother Xuan said that his stomach missed me!"
"Puchi——" Chu Yueshu was the first one who couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Hahaha!" Then, the yard erupted in laughter.
Chu's mother, Yuling, Doctor Qian, Song Ruyan, and the surrounding maids and servants were all amused by the childish words.
Yuling walked up with a smile and pinched Yun'er's little face.
"Brother Yun has become more clever and seems to have grown a lot taller."
Doctor Qian stood slightly outside the crowd, but his eyes unconsciously drifted towards Song Ruyan who was bending over to tease Xuan Ge'er.
A complicated look flashed across his eyes, and then he looked away unnaturally, his ears slightly red.
Song Ruyan, however, was carefree and unaware of anything. She was only focused on playing with Yun Ge'er.
"How are you doing in Zheng State? Has anyone bullied you? If so, tell me and I'll take you back."
Brother Yun patted his chest with a proud look on his face.
"I am the King of Chu, who dares to bully me?"
"Oh, look at what you can do..."
Yun Ge'er's little hand fell on Chu Ruohan's belly, and his little face was full of seriousness.
"Mom, is this my brother or my sister?"
This question stumped everyone.
Chu Yueshu came over and pinched Yun'er's little face with a smile: "Well, we'll know when he comes out! Does Yun'er like his brother or his sister?"
Yun Ge'er thought about it seriously, looked at Xuan Ge'er who was still hugging his legs and smiling foolishly, touched his mother's belly, and finally nodded vigorously.
"I want both! Mom, just give birth to two. Yun'er will like both!"
"You're quite greedy..."
