After bathing, Fang Chaozhou grabbed Song Lianyi by the back of her collar and carried her out. However, after only a few steps, the little kid in his hand shouted in an angry voice, "Fang Chaozhou, put me down. I don't want to leave like this."
Fang Chaozhou glanced at the bun in his hand and said, "But your legs are short. What if they get caught on the doorstep?"
Song Lianyi was obviously choked. He stopped talking, lowered his head, and let Fang Chaozhou carry him out of the room. However, Fang Chaozhou also took Song Lianyi's feelings into consideration. He carried her into the bedroom and then put her down.
Not long after, Hu Xiang sent someone to invite Fang Chaozhou to the gate of the mansion, saying that the carriage had been prepared and he could enter the palace.
Fang Chaozhou also entered the palace in a carriage yesterday because Hu Xiang told him that flying with a sword might cause panic among the people.
When Fang Chaozhou heard the words of the visitor, he first glanced at Song Lianyi and asked, "Do you want to leave by yourself?"
Song Lianyi said without hesitation: "Of course."
So Song Lianyi trotted along the way, and he almost fell several times. The servant next to him knew Song Lianyi's identity before he came, and knew that he was Fang Chaozhou's child. Now seeing that Song Lianyi was walking so hard, he said, "Miss, how about I carry you?"
He naturally thought that Song Lianyi was a girl, and of course everyone would think that Song Lianyi was a girl based on her appearance.
Song Lianyi stopped, a little out of breath from jogging. He looked at the servant who was smiling at him in a fawning manner, then looked at Fang Chaozhou who was walking in front of him with no intention of waiting for him. He gritted his teeth and ran forward faster.
When he ran behind Fang Chaozhou, he suddenly hugged Fang Chaozhou's legs and shouted in a baby voice: "Daddy, I can't walk anymore, carry me."
Fang Chaozhou paused, and looked down at the person holding his legs in disbelief. Seeing Fang Chaozhou lower his head, Song Lianyi smiled obediently, "Daddy, I really can't walk anymore, can you hold me?"
The servant following behind also said, "Ninth Prince, the young lady is very young, and it must have been hard for her to walk this way."
Although Fang Chaozhou didn't know what Song Lianyi was planning, now that Song Lianyi had become smaller and had no cultivation, he probably couldn't do anything. So he thought about it, then bent down and picked him up.
While picking her up, he did not forget to cast a spell to clean Song Lianyi's shoes.
As soon as Song Lianyi was picked up, she took the initiative to hug Fang Chaozhou's neck. This overly intimate action made Fang Chaozhou's body stiffen.
But he quickly continued walking forward, and soon arrived at the entrance of the mansion. Hu Xiang was already standing there, still wrapped in a thick fox fur coat. It was unknown how long he had been standing there, and his face was paler than usual.
When he saw Fang Chaozhou carrying Song Lianyi out, his eyes flickered slightly, but he quickly took the initiative to say, "Ninth Uncle, you get on the carriage first."
Fang Chaozhou said hello, stuffed Song Lianyi into the carriage first, and then got in himself. When he went in, Song Lianyi was trying hard to climb up. Fang Chaozhou took a look and helped her with magic.
Song Lianyi, with her back to Fang Chaozhou, closed her eyes and then turned around and sat down. Fang Chaozhou sat next to Song Lianyi, but there was a lot of space between them, so there was room for at least two more people.
When Hu Xiang came up, she saw that the two of them were sitting so far away from each other, and there was obvious surprise in her eyes. He walked between the two of them and was about to sit down when Song Lianyi moved.
"Wait." Song Lianyi used her hands and feet to crawl towards Fang Chaozhou, "I want to sit with Daddy."
He climbed onto Fang Chaozhou's legs, and despite the other party's surprise, he forced himself into his arms, with his two little hands around Fang Chaozhou's neck.
After doing all this, he turned to look at Hu Xiang next to him and said, "Brother, please sit over there. I have something to tell Dad in private."
Hu Xiang nodded good-naturedly and sat on the other side.
Seeing that he was chasing people away, Song Lianyi turned around and yawned lazily, but he was picked up halfway through the yawn.
Fang Chaozhou picked up Song Lianyi and put her aside, "Sit down by yourself." After saying that, he cast a cleansing spell on himself.
After Song Lianyi was lifted up, he narrowed his eyes and continued to climb onto Fang Chaozhou's legs. However, he failed several times. Finally, his mouth pursed and he looked like he was about to cry.
Hu Xiang, who was beside them, had been paying attention to their movements. Seeing that Song Lianyi was about to cry, she whispered, "Sister Erya, do you want to sit with me?"
Song Lianyi turned her head to look at him, then turned back and stretched out her hands to Fang Chaozhou with a wronged look on her face, "Daddy, I want a hug."
Fang Chaozhou looked at him and always felt that Song Lianyi was up to something bad, so he didn't move. When Song Lianyi saw that he didn't move, tears started falling like rain. He cried and called for daddy, and crawled towards Fang Chaozhou. When he found that Fang Chaozhou was pulling the back of his collar again, his crying suddenly became louder.
Fang Chaozhou felt a headache from his crying, so he had to let go. However, before Song Lianyi fell into his arms, he took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, "Wipe your tears."
Song Lianyi didn't answer and said in a milky voice, "Daddy, help me wipe it."
"Then you sit by yourself." Fang Chaozhou said.
Upon hearing this, Song Lianyi pretended to bury her face in Fang Chaozhou's arms.
Seeing his tearful face, Fang Chaozhou immediately covered his face with a handkerchief and said, "I'll wipe it."
His movements were not gentle and Song Lianyi's body tilted while he was wiping. But even so, he did not change his words and insisted that Fang Chaozhou help him wipe it.
Hu Xiang, who witnessed all this, turned his face away silently.
When the carriage arrived at the palace, Song Lianyi was still like he had taken some crazy medicine. He insisted that Fang Chaozhou carry him and walk away. Only when they arrived at the emperor's bedroom did he let Fang Chaozhou put him down.
The old emperor had been waiting for Fang Chaozhou for a long time. When he saw Fang Chaozhou appear, his eyes lit up. However, when he saw Song Lianyi following behind Fang Chaozhou, he was visibly stunned.
"Chao Zhou, who is this child?" asked the old emperor.
Before Fang Chaozhou could reply, Song Lianyi called out "Grandpa Emperor" in a crisp voice.
"You call me Grandpa?" The old emperor was obviously stunned. After he reacted, he was obviously happy. "You are Chao Zhou's child, right? Good boy, come to Grandpa. What's wrong with your head? Did you bump it?"
Fang Chaozhou was in a difficult situation at this point and could only watch Song Lianyi get closer to the old emperor.
"I tried to cross the threshold this morning, but it was too high and I fell. Grandpa Huang, it hurts so much."
This guy really speaks differently to different people, uses a baby voice, and acts like a spoiled child. In just a short moment, he made the old emperor feel very distressed. But when he saw that people felt distressed, he immediately changed the subject and made the old emperor laugh so hard that he couldn't stop.
"By the way, dear child, where is your mother?" The old emperor talked for a long time and finally led the topic to the topic he wanted to ask most.
Song Lianyi glanced at Fang Chaozhou and said, "My mother is having a quarrel with my father, otherwise she wouldn't have sent me here late last night. Grandfather Emperor, you have to take care of my father. Although my father is with my mother, he is always flirting with other women outside, and even has his eyes on his own junior fellow apprentice."
When the old emperor heard this, his face darkened, "Is there such a thing? Chao Zhou, come here."
When Song Lianyi heard this, there was obvious joy in his eyes. He looked at Fang Chaozhou with a gloating look, but the old emperor's next words made him unhappy in an instant.
"Chao Zhou, you are born in the royal family, and it is very common for you to have concubines. Balancing the relationship between wife and concubine is the simplest thing. You can't even do this well, which is really embarrassing for our royal family." The old emperor sighed, "Is your junior brother tolerant? If he is tolerant, give him a status, which can also be regarded as a warning to your current wife."
The old emperor had three thousand beauties in his harem, so he naturally didn't think that his son's philandering was a bad thing. Instead, he thought his son was as likable as he was when he was young.
But he is still too young and can't even tame his own wife.
Fang Chaozhou listened to the old emperor's words and shook his head. "Erya, he was just joking. How can you take a child's words seriously? Also, father, don't worry about me. Taking good care of your health is the most important thing."
"How long can I live? This time you came back and brought my granddaughter back with you. I am already satisfied." The old emperor smiled tiredly, "I am tired of sitting on this throne. I don't want to sit on it anymore."
After saying that, he teased Song Lianyi, "Little girl, can Grandpa let you sit in this seat?"
Song Lianyi rolled her eyes and turned her gaze to Hu Xiang, "Grandpa Emperor, I'm still young, let my brother take this seat."
When Hu Xiang heard this, she smiled awkwardly and lowered her head.
The old emperor laughed and said, "I also sat on the throne when I was a few years old."
It was Song Lianyi who was talking to the old emperor almost all day, and Fang Chaozhou could only interject a few words occasionally. Song Lianyi was cute and had a sweet mouth, which made the old emperor almost reluctant to let her leave the palace and wanted to keep her in the palace.
Finally, Song Lianyi said that she would come to see him early the next morning, and he reluctantly let Fang Chaozhou take her away.
When leaving the palace, Song Lianyi was so sleepy that she could hardly walk, so she acted coquettishly and asked Fang Chaozhou to hold her. Fang Chaozhou saw that he had made the old emperor so happy today, and thought he had done a good job, so he picked her up.
Not long after getting on the carriage, Song Lianyi fell asleep due to sleepiness.
Hu Xiang looked at Song Lianyi's peaceful sleeping face. After a moment of silence, she spoke softly, "Uncle Nine, did Auntie Huang come over last night?"
"Yeah." Fang Chaozhou didn't know how to explain Song Lianyi's appearance, but fortunately Song Lianyi had thought of an explanation for him beforehand.
"What kind of person is the Imperial Aunt?" Hu Xiang asked.
Fang Chaozhou paused for a moment before saying, "It's very ordinary."
"How can someone who is favored by the emperor's uncle be ordinary?" Hu Xiang seemed to be unconvinced and shook her head with a smile, "Hu Xiang thinks that the emperor's aunt must be a woman with both talent and beauty."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Lianyi, who had been lying on the cushion just now, suddenly sat up. He closed his eyes and crawled towards Fang Chaozhou. After putting his arms around Fang Chaozhou's neck, he buried his face in the other's neck, sniffed it lightly, and then bit it.
Fang Chaozhou took a breath and immediately wanted to pull Song Lianyi away, but he suddenly remembered what Song Lianyi's maid said.
The puppet needs to suck his blood.
He didn't feed Song Lianyi blood all day today.
When Hu Xiang saw this scene, she was shocked at first, and then she stared at Fang Chaozhou and Song Lianyi with mixed emotions.
But suddenly, the curtain was blown open by strong wind.
Before Hu Xiang had time to look outside, a sword flew in and nailed Fang Chaozhou's head directly. If it went down a little bit more, it would have hit Fang Chaozhou's head.
Fang Chaozhou froze. He first glanced at the sword above his head, then looked at the people outside the carriage.
The moment the sword flew in, the carriage stopped.
In the dim night, the tall young man in the snow-white clothes stood up straight, looking at the three people in the car with an expressionless face.
