Even though the people in the Duke of Qing's Mansion were reluctant, what was supposed to come still came.
Three days later, the Prince of Dongping came to the Duke of Qing's Mansion again.
During these three days, he was afraid that all the evidence and related people related to Xue Shao's life experience would be sent to Princess Guihe.
Princess Guihe and Xue Zhi checked again and again, and finally had to admit that what the Prince of Dongping said was true.
After Xue Shao knew his life experience, he locked himself in the room for two days without eating or drinking. During this time, Zheng Xiu went to see him in person and sent him food, but saw him sitting alone at the desk with a blank look in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Zheng Xiu didn't want to persuade him, but how to start? After all, she was an outsider, and it still depended on Xue Shao to figure it out himself.
Fortunately, the day before the arrival of Prince Dongping, Xue Shao finally figured it out and came out of the house.
Xue Zhi had not been on duty for the past two days because he was worried about this matter. He took leave and stayed at home.
As soon as Xue Shao left the house, his servant immediately went to Hao Yetang to report the news.
Xue Zhi and Zheng Xiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Just as they were about to order someone to serve Xue Shao food and drink, Xue Shao had already arrived at Hao Yetang.
Xue Shao entered the house, walked in front of the two of them without saying much, lifted his robe and knelt down.
Zheng Xiu couldn't help but wonder, "A Shao, what are you sitting on?" Then she wanted to help him up herself.
Xue Zhi held her back with his hand and said, "Don't be impatient. Listen to what A Shao has to say first." He raised his hand and dismissed the servants in the room.
Xue Shao had not eaten much for two days, and his cheeks had become thinner, making him look more handsome.
"Dad, A Shao didn't know his own life experience before. He just thought that I deserved your kindness to me. Now I understand that your hard work and care for me over the years are the greatest blessing of A Shao's life. A Shao really doesn't know how to repay you..."
After hearing what he said, Xue Shao's eyes became red and he said, "You are my son. I have never expected anything in return for my kindness to you. It has been two days. Have you figured out where you will go in the future?"
Xue Shao nodded and said firmly, "A Shao has never thought about leaving my parents and leaving the Duke of Qing's Mansion. These two days, I was just a little confused..."
Hearing his answer, Zheng Xiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She had seen Xue Shao staying indoors with a frown on his face, and she thought he was preparing to leave the Duke of Qing’s Mansion...
Xue Zhi was also relieved and said, "It's good that you have figured it out. No one can force you to do anything unless you want to. Don't worry, Dad is here..."
"Dad," Xue Shao suddenly called him. After Xue Zhi finished speaking, he continued, "Dad, A Shao is not a child anymore and has understood things. The Prince of Dongping came to me with such a solemn promise, and A Shao knew what he was up to. This matter started with me, and there is no reason to involve the entire Duke of Qing’s Mansion..." "
Then what do you mean..."
Xue Shao said, "I want to talk to him."
This 'he' is naturally the Prince of Dongping.
Xue Zhi felt gloomy in his heart, but he also felt that his son had grown up and was worth rejoicing. However, he didn't know why he couldn't smile.
"Okay, okay, as long as you have an idea." Xue Zhi said so in the end.
Zheng Xiu didn't know what to say. After they finished talking, she asked someone to prepare Xue Shao's favorite food and took Xue Shao to eat.
In just two days, Xue Shao lost so much weight, which made people feel distressed.
On the day when Prince Dongping came, Princess Guihe, Xue Qin and his wife, Xue Zhi, Zheng Xiu and others were all waiting leisurely.
After all, the family had been through ups and downs for many years. Even though they knew that Xue Shao had no blood relationship with them, they were still reluctant to let him go.
When Prince Dongping entered the mansion, he saw that he was greeted by a large family. He suddenly felt happy for his son. It seemed that his son had really been treated as a family member by the Duke of Qing’s mansion over the years. Even now, they did not treat his son as an outsider.
Princess Guihe treated him politely and invited him to sit at the head of the table. With
a full house of young people present, Prince Dongping really didn’t know how to start talking for a moment.
After the greetings, Prince Dongping had another cup of tea, and then asked Princess Guihe, “Where is the child now?” Princess
Guihe turned to look at Xue Zhi, who said with a sullen face, “Please follow me, Your Majesty.” Prince
Dongping was Princess Guihe’s uncle, and the two families were in-laws. Xue Zhi had no need to be polite. At this time, this address was just because he was particularly resistant to him in his heart.
The Prince of Dongping was not surprised. He stood up and said, "Then I'll trouble you, my nephew."
The two of them said no more. They stood up, one leading the way silently in front, and the other followed behind without saying a word.
Zheng Xiu and others could only sit and wait anxiously.
Xue Zhi led the Prince of Dongping from Changfeng Garden all the way to Haoye Hall, where Xue Shao was waiting for them.
When they arrived outside the door, Xue Zhi made a "please" gesture, indicating that the Prince of Dongping should go in alone.
The Prince of Dongping nodded, indicating that the guards with him should wait outside, and then he nervously smoothed the wrinkles on his body that did not exist, then lifted the curtain and stepped in.
Xue Zhi's eyes followed the Prince of Dongping until his back disappeared behind the curtain, then he withdrew his gaze.
Outsiders had no idea what the Prince of Dongping and Xue Zhi were talking about.
Xue Zhi waited outside for a quarter of an hour, but seeing that there was still no movement, he returned to Changfeng Garden.
When Zheng Xiu saw that he was back, her eyes could not help but drift behind him. When she found out that he was back alone, her brows furrowed.
Xue Zhi sat down beside her and patted the back of her hand soothingly.
Everyone was in a state of anxiety, and no one could speak first. Only Xue Baoer, who followed the adults, was still innocent. She had no idea what had happened at home, and was still having fun.
After about half an hour, everyone saw the Prince of Dongping coming with Xue Shao.
The Prince of Dongping was still in a good mood, and Xue Shao's face showed no emotion. From their facial expressions, people could not tell anything. Xue Zhi and Zheng Xiu were very nervous.
"I have decided to adopt Shao as my adopted son." The Prince of Dongping said slowly.
