Chapter 446 Going to see my son and daughter
Shen Chu looked at him with a smile.
Are you nervous?
Pei Yuan rubbed his hands together, his expression clearly showing his nervousness.
He took a bundle from the bedside, opened it, and inside were neatly folded clothes.
On top of it is the bib that Han Feng embroidered for the two children three years ago.
Below are two stacks of clothes. One stack is mainly pink, red, and yellow, clearly meant for little girls.
The other stack was mostly blue and cyan, and it was for the little boy.
"It's been three years, and I often think about what the children would look like if you were here, and the children were here too."
Will my son be mischievous and active? Will my daughter be soft and cute?
I didn't know what to prepare for them, so I just prepared a set of clothes for them for each season.
"It's been three years, and each child has received twelve sets in total; they're all here."
Pei Yuan looked at Chen Chu expectantly, "Chu, I suddenly feel a lot of pressure. I don't know how to be a good father."
Should I be a stern father to my children, or a gentle one?
He lost his memories of being Lu Zhan, so he doesn't remember how he got along with his father when he was a child.
His memories only extend to the ten years after he entered the palace.
After Consort Yu's death, His Majesty seemed to have completely forgotten about her.
He suffered all kinds of bullying in the palace; the palace eunuchs and maids all dared to give him attitude.
Even the Third Prince dared to drug him several times in an attempt to molest him.
Until he acquired the ability to protect himself, he was able to reach His Majesty through his own abilities.
Six years ago, he took over the Flying Eagle Guard, and to outsiders, he became His Majesty's most favored prince.
But he knew very well that wasn't the case.
At least the favor His Majesty showed him was not the kind of favor a father would show to his child.
No loving father would neglect or forget his child for years.
Now that Achu wants to take him to see the child, he is completely stunned.
Shen Chu was speechless, but her heart softened completely.
He was truly looking forward to the children's arrival, but a series of unexpected events caused them to miss each other for three years.
"I don't know how to be a good mother either, but that's okay, we'll figure it out together."
As for whether to be authoritative or gentle, you can make a decision after you've met both children.
Our son is nicknamed Little Potato. He's a bit quiet but loves reading. He can already do calligraphy practice at just three years old.
My daughter is nicknamed Little Apple. Unlike my son, she doesn't like studying; she just wants to practice martial arts and become a female knight-errant. She's a little troublemaker.
When her son and daughter were mentioned, a bright smile naturally appeared on Shen Chu's face.
Pei Yuan listened with great interest, and when he heard that his son could trace calligraphy at the age of three, he couldn't help but show a proud smile.
The smile of a father who is a master at playing cards is a testament to his son's prowess.
When she heard that her daughter preferred martial arts to studying, she looked at him with a look of admiration, as if to say, "My daughter is so adorable."
"Little Potato, Little Apple, my son and daughter's names are also very cute. Ah Chu, why are they called these two names?"
Jinbao, standing nearby, couldn't help but speak up first, "It must be because His Highness loves to cut potato shreds, so the Princess named the young master Little Potato, right?"
Pei Yuan was taken aback, then muttered to himself with a strange expression.
"Luckily, I like to cut potato shreds, not cabbage, otherwise my son would be called Little Cabbage!"
Shen Chu couldn't help but chuckle, and then told the story of Little Apple.
"I've already told the kids that you love apples, so you can't say you don't."
Otherwise, your daughter might cry in front of you, and once she starts crying, she's not easy to soothe.
Pei Yuan nodded solemnly, repeatedly reminding himself, "I remember, I love apples, I love apples..."
Chen Chu packed the bundle and handed it to Jin Bao, asking him to hitch up the carriage.
"Let's take all these clothes with us; I think the children will like them."
Jin Baoxing hurriedly took the bundle, his face full of excitement.
"That's wonderful! With the Princess and the young master back, His Highness will no longer be all alone."
For the past three years, everyone thought that His Highness had married Chen Jiaying. The young master, General Ling Ce, and Doctor Han all had a lot of opinions about His Highness and refused to see him since then.
"But His Highness has no way to explain to them and can only silently endure their misunderstandings. Your Highness, His Highness has suffered too much in these three years."
After muttering to himself, Jinbao carried his bundle and went out to hitch up the carriage.
Shen Chu and Pei Yuan walked out hand in hand, and she whispered about her experiences over the past three years.
She recounted how Luo Heng had taken her from death row three years ago, and how she had escaped only to be captured by Shangguan Ye.
"At that time, I was locked up by Luo Heng for seven days. I was extremely tense and exhausted. Later, he told me about your marriage to Chen Jiaying."
I didn't believe it, so he took me to hide in the carriage to watch the ceremony. When I saw you coming out in your bright red wedding dress, I didn't believe it either.
Later, when he stabbed Luo Heng and took the opportunity to escape, his first thought was to come to Prince Rui's mansion to find you.
Who knew that he would run into Shangguan Ye again...
He briefly mentioned the emotional entanglement between Shangguan Ye and his master.
"Back then, Shangguan Ye wanted to use me to lure my master out, but due to Luo Heng's intervention, I was accidentally injured."
When my master arrived, I was already on the verge of death. If she hadn't arrived in time, my two children and I would all be dead.
Pei Yuan hugged Shen Chu tightly in his arms, gritting his teeth as he said, "Luo Heng, Luo Heng!"
The words, squeezed out between his teeth, carried a chilling murderous intent.
“If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have been separated from you and the children for three years. Luo Heng, I will not let him go.”
Shen Chu also hated Luo Heng to the core.
Is he still in the court?
Pei Yuan sneered, "He is now the Emperor's and Prince Heng's money bag. In the past three years, the Ministry of Revenue has been quite rich thanks to the Luo family's business."
He is now firmly in his position as Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
But it doesn't matter. Now that you're back, I won't let anyone who deserves to pay the price go unpunished.
Shen Chu pursed her lips.
Everyone has to pay the price for what they've done.
What she and Pei Yuan will do next is to join forces to seek justice for the wronged souls of the Shen and Lu families.
When Shen Chu came to the capital this time, he rented a secluded house.
On weekdays, she and her master, along with Little Potato and Little Apple, make a spacious family of four.
Before even entering, I could hear the laughter of children.
The little girl's soft, sweet laughter was as lovely as a silver bell.
"Uncle Yi, you're amazing! I want to fly even higher."
Uncle Yi?
Why is Shangguan Yi here?
Chen Chu strode into the door, but did not see her master in the large courtyard.
Dressed in red, Shangguan Yi was running fast in the yard, holding Little Apple in one hand and Little Potato in the other.
Little Apple held a little rabbit kite in her hand, while Little Potato held an eagle kite.
As they ran, both kites flew higher and higher.
The yard was filled with the cheerful chirping of Little Apple.
"A little higher! Wow, Uncle Yi is amazing!"
Even Little Potato pursed his lips, his dark eyes curving into round shapes, clearly showing he was very happy.
Shangguan Yi coaxed the two children.
"Uncle Yi is so amazing, do you think I could be your father?"
Pei Yuan, who was standing at the door, immediately turned pale.
Before he could even hear the children call him "Daddy," someone was already trying to steal his thunder.
