Sultan Ruo sat upright, straightened his clothes, and said in a serious tone:
"Not only do I know him, I'm very familiar with him!"
The two children began to shake Sudanruo's body from left to right.
"Then mother, can you take us to meet General Su? But I heard that General Su died on the battlefield a long time ago. It can't be true, right?"
Sultan shook his sleeves and cleared his throat.
"Let's see how you perform!"
The two little guys began to show their courtesy to Sultan.
Sometimes I would massage her shoulders, sometimes I would massage her legs.
Qu Cheng'an arranged Sultanruo in her original bedroom.
The Sultan entered her bedroom and found that everything in the bedroom was exactly the same as before she left.
The palace was cleaned thoroughly, even the cribs for the two children were still inside.
The four children looked into the house curiously.
Su Yan was puzzled and asked Qu Nian:
"Haven't you guys been living here all along? Why are you joining in the fun?"
Qu Nian pouted and said aggrievedly:
"Ever since I can remember, this palace has been guarded by someone assigned by my father. Not even a fly can fly in. We have no idea what the inside of this palace looks like."
Sudan Ruo listened to Qu Nian's words and felt a little touched, but he quickly suppressed it.
Sultan Ruo turned to Qu Nian and Qu Zheng and asked:
"Do you want to live here with your brothers and sisters?"
Qu Zheng was about to shake his head when he was hit hard by Qu Nian.
Qu Nian pretended to be pitiful and said:
"Can we really live with Mother? We've been living with our wet nurse ever since we can remember, and later Father gave us our own palace.
I really envy my younger brothers and sisters who can always be with their mother and sleep in her arms."
When the Sultan heard this, he instantly felt guilty towards the two children and immediately decided to spend more time with them during his time in the palace.
If Sudan had to sleep alone with four children, there would be no room in the bed.
Sultan asked someone to bring in another bed, and the two beds were placed together so that five people could sleep.
Qu Cheng'an was very envious when he heard that the children were living with Su Danruo.
"If our family of six can all be together, it will be complete."
In the evening, just as Sultan Ruo had coaxed a few children to sleep and was about to go to bed, he was hurriedly summoned to Qu Xiaotan's residence, Fengle Palace.
The nanny who was leading the way said that Qu Xiaotan suddenly started to have stomach pain in the middle of the night, and then her amniotic fluid broke, but for some reason the baby did not come out.
When the Sultan arrived, Qu Cheng'an was already waiting at the gate of Fengle Palace.
"What's going on? Is Xiao Tan okay?"
Qu Chengan shook his head. "The situation isn't good, otherwise I wouldn't have sent someone to fetch you in the middle of the night."
At this moment, Qu Xiaotan's painful cry suddenly came from inside.
Sultan Ruo went into the house without saying anything else.
Qu Xiaotan was already sweating profusely in the room. A group of people surrounded her and no one knew what they were doing.
If the Sultan felt that these people were only a nuisance here, he would drive them all out.
A palace maid stepped forward and said:
"Who are you? Do you know where this place is? How dare you interfere here? If something happens to the princess, can you bear the consequences?"
Even though Qu Xiaotan was rolling around in pain on the bed, the palace maid's words frightened her and she broke out in a cold sweat.
"You...whose maid are you? How dare you speak like that? Get out of here!"
Sultan Ruo also felt strange. This palace maid was too stupid! Since she could appear here, she must have some background.
Everyone looked up at the palace maid, and Sultan was surprised to find that the palace maid's eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to his own.
Could it be that this palace maid had received special care from Qu Cheng'an before, so she dared to be so arrogant?
The palace maid felt humiliated by Qu Xiaotan's yelling and walked out angrily.
No one cared about the little palace maid and soon put this episode behind them.
After Sudan Ruo went through a lot of trouble, Qu Xiaotan finally gave birth smoothly, and both mother and child were safe.
This whole ordeal lasted until dawn.
Qu Xiaotan forced herself to thank Su Danruo and said:
"Miss Su, I never thought I would see you again in my lifetime. My brother, the emperor, has entrusted all the affairs of the capital to me over the years in order to find you. Now that you are back, I can finally be free."
Sultan lowered his head and said thoughtfully:
"I met Qi Xinyuan on my way back. I know you just gave birth. I shouldn't say this, but Qi Xinyuan is really..."
The Sultan couldn't say the following words.
When Qu Xiaotan heard Qi Xinyuan, tears could not stop falling.
"I know I've let him down, but this is the only way I can think of to save his life. I'll find a reason to leave the palace someday, and I'll stay by his side and take care of him for the rest of my life.
But I can't bear to see my child suffer, so I'd like to ask Miss Su to help look after him for me."
Su Danruo never thought that Qu Xiaotan had thought of all the subsequent things after taking that one step.
Seeing Qu Xiaotan's infatuation, Su Danruo gave up the idea of looking for Qi Xinyuan.
But how could she be qualified to take care of this child? She lowered her head and didn't look at Qu Xiaotan, saying in a deep voice:
"Okay, since you have made up your mind, I hope you can take good care of Qi Xinyuan in the future. Even if I don't take care of your child, your brother will help you take good care of him."
Qu Xiaotan heard the hidden meaning in Su Danruo's words.
