"Marshal Yang, you won two cities for me during this expedition and expanded our territory. Your merits are immense. I wish to bestow upon the Yang family the utmost honor."
Emperor Wu of Xia began his life of painting big pictures.
"Your Majesty, I have made up my mind. I hope Your Majesty will grant me your blessing. After all, I am old and no longer qualified for the position of marshal." Deep disappointment flashed in Yang Guozhong's eyes.
"Can you tell me why you need to retire?"
Emperor Wu of Xia wanted to see who was stirring up trouble. In fact, one could see deep disappointment in his eyes, as if he had been treated inhumanely.
"Your Majesty, if you really want me to go and speak, please forgive me first." Yang Guozhong was very cautious.
Emperor Wu of Xia nodded and said seriously, "Go ahead!"
"The Yang family has been loyal to the emperor and patriotic for generations, yet they haven't earned the emperor's trust. Since this is the case, I, your humble servant, will retire and return home. Your Majesty will be relieved."
Yang Guozhong didn't know how much resentment he had in his heart.
Emperor Wu of Xia fell silent. He suddenly didn't know how to appease him. Indeed, he had been at fault in this matter. Yang Guozhong must have been a sensitive person. This time, his actions might have really chilled him.
Emperor Wu of Xia didn't know how to start to appease him, so he just said dryly, "Come here, please give him a seat."
However, Yang Guozhong didn't seem to appreciate it. His temper...
[It’s so noisy, so noisy.]
Hearing Wanwan's inner voice, Emperor Wu of Xia knew that the girl must have woken up. Suddenly, a sense of peace that he had never felt before rose in his heart.
The veteran Yang Guozhong must be kept, otherwise... After hearing Wanwan's thoughts last time, I have been horrified.
He was only in his thirties, in the prime of his life, and hadn't yet realized his political ambitions. How could he die?
My dear daughter, please analyze this for me quickly and see what daddy should do.
[Hey, Grandpa is back? He's wearing armor and looks so heroic, so he must be my grandpa.]
Wanwan babbled, fiddled with her hands, smiled, and went to chat with Yang Guozhong.
Yang Guozhong's anger seemed to have subsided a little. "Your Majesty, what is this?"
"This is Wanwan, my little princess. Her biological mother is Concubine Xian." Emperor Wu of Xia emphasized very clearly that her biological mother was Concubine Xian.
This sentence instantly made Yang Guozhong's cold heart feel like seeing a ray of sunshine. The coldness on Yang Guozhong's face melted away.
What a loyal and patriotic general! Unfortunately, after a lifetime of military service, his entire family was exterminated. His only daughter was almost forced to kill her own flesh and blood in the cold palace. How tragic!
After hearing Wanwan's thoughts, Emperor Wu of Xia closed his eyes and suddenly understood why Yang Guozhong was so angry.
Having his beloved daughter, he understood this even more. If anyone touched his daughter, he might not be so simple.
This is a relatively mild way for Yang Guozhong to vent his emotions.
"Wanwan, call me grandpa."
Emperor Wu of Xia stared at Wanwan, not because he wanted Wanwan to really scream, but just wanted to get closer to her.
"Good girl, be good and call grandpa."
[Huh, now you're begging me? When you wanted to strangle me and bullied my grandpa and mom, how could you not know this day would come?]
Although she complained in her heart, Wanwan also knew that if she wanted to live well enough to protect herself, her father's protection was still very important.
"Grandpa..."
Wanwan called out in non-standard "baby talk".
Yang Guozhong just thought that he was probably hallucinating, but did Wanwan really scream just now?
Emperor Wu of Xia was so jealous that he looked at Wanwan and realized that he had never heard her call him "Daddy".
Just over two months old, and already calling for help? This scared Emperor Wu of Xia half to death. But thinking that Wanwan was born with memories, he didn't think much of it.
"Little Princess?"
Yang Guozhong couldn't believe it, "Call me grandpa again?"
“Grandpa…”
This time, she was a little more sober. Seeing that there was no one around, she dared to shout like this, and finally pointed at the chair.
Although his voice was not standard and sounded childish, it was definitely not a coincidence, as his Wanwan understood everything.
"This...this is truly...a child prodigy."
Yang Guozhong couldn't believe it. "Okay, Grandpa, sit down. Grandpa, sit down. Be good, little princess."
"We're a family, just call me Wanwan."
Although Emperor Wu of Xia's expression did not show much joy, one could tell that he looked very amiable.
"Okay, Wanwan. Your Majesty, I beg you to let me hold you for a moment."
"You have rough hands and feet, be careful, don't hurt my precious daughter."
The eunuch beside him curled his lips, but Yang Guozhong seemed fine.
"Ah, ah, ah... Yes... Your Majesty..."
He wiped his rough hands again and again, and then held Wanwan in his palms through the quilt.
Emperor Wu of Xia couldn't help but complain in his heart, "As expected, he's another daughter slave."
After being carried by Marshal Yang, Emperor Xia Wu felt as if he had lost his heart. He was afraid that something unexpected would happen...
"Wanwan, call me grandpa again..."
Wanwan doesn’t call anymore. It’s too tiring to use spiritual power to make sounds.
Seeing Wanwan interacting happily with Marshal Yang, Emperor Wu of Xia couldn't help feeling jealous.
Humph, old man, if it weren't for the fact that I wronged you first, you would never have the courage to hug my daughter!
[Hey, look at my jerk dad, he's like he's afraid someone else will snatch me away.]
Emperor Wu of Xia curled his lips. He was just afraid of being robbed...
He has been holding his daughter and playing with her for half an hour. Doesn’t he think she is tired?
Until Empress Xian came, Wanwan looked at her mother and her stomach suddenly made a rumbling sound.
Wanwan pouted her little mouth and bit her blanket.
Marshal Yang looked at Wan Wan stupidly, "Hey, what's wrong with her mouth? Should we call the imperial physician to take a look?"
Wanwan was mentally frustrated. "I'm speechless! I just wanted to remind you I'm hungry. You're energetic, but I'm not. You've been playing with me for an hour, aren't you tired? I still need to grow taller."
Concubine Xian couldn't help wanting to laugh, and she quickly came over and looked at Marshal Yang distressedly, "Daddy, Wanwan is hungry. She's looking for food. Daddy, I'll go feed her first."
"oh……"
A great general, yet at this moment he acted like a child. Confused, he rubbed his forehead in self-reproach, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was so happy that I didn't think..."
"Is my daughter cute?"
Emperor Wu of Xia looked at Marshal Yang with pride.
"Cute, cute! How could my granddaughter not be cute? Of course she is cute. She must be the cutest little girl in the country."
…
Old man?
Do you have a sense that first of all, she is my real daughter? Are you trying to steal my daughter from me?
"So...what happened just now?"
Emperor Wu of Xia asked tentatively.
"Ah? Just now? What happened just now? I forgot about it because I was so happy. Forget it, I forgot it. Forget it."
Marshal Yang was so happy that he lost his mind.
"Didn't you just want to retire and return home?" Emperor Wu of Xia gave a suicidal reminder.
