After Lan Sinian left the military headquarters, he learned that Hanhai had already rushed back to the palace with Qin Changqing and his son. For the first time, he drove the aircraft to the maximum speed in the downtown area of the Imperial Star and rushed into the palace like a gust of wind.
He hurried into the palace medical room, filled with anxiety, and found the doctor examining Qin Xu. He didn't want to disturb him. Seeing Qin Changqing's worried face, he walked over, hugged him, and asked softly, "How is it?"
Qin Changqing shook his head. The doctor had not yet reached a conclusion.
Lan Sinian didn't ask any more questions. He stared solemnly at the child being lowered into the examination chamber, a feeling welling up in his heart that he couldn't quite put into words. The child had grown incredibly fast in the past year, now reaching chest height and becoming much stronger. But now, lying there with his eyes closed, he still looked so fragile, so in constant need of their protection. A pang of pain ripped through his heart.
He recalled the child's dependent and admiring eyes every time he looked at him, and raised his hand to touch his chest. Unconsciously, this child had become so important to him.
The couple looked at the unconscious child, both filled with worry. Luckily, the doctor finished the examination quickly. Seeing the smiles on their faces, Qin Changqing and his wife felt a little relieved. But they still wanted a definitive answer from the doctor, so they stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong with Xiaoxu?"
The doctor smiled and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesties! The young prince's body transformation has reached the final stage. He will soon fully awaken his bloodline and become a powerful psychic."
Qin Changqing and Lan Sinian exchanged a glance, both feeling relieved. But before they could finally calm down, the doctor added, "However, this recent period is extremely important for the young prince. Your Majesties, please ensure that you take good care of him."
"Okay, we'll definitely pay attention." The two fathers were now uneasy. The couple looked at each other with joy and worry, and they had only one wish in their hearts: that their child could get through this safely.
Qin Xu was quickly transferred to his own room, but he was still unconscious and Qin Changqing had no mind to do anything else. Lan Sinian felt the same way, so the two fathers stayed by his bed together.
The little fellow on the bed wasn't in a peaceful state. Strange, milky-white markings covered his skin, making him look a bit scary. But the doctor said this was normal recently and wouldn't cause him any discomfort or other problems. Once he successfully awakened his bloodline, the markings would completely disappear. So Qin Changqing remained calm.
But Lan Sinian couldn't calm down. The more he watched the little guy, the more he looked like the footage he'd seen of the Lan royal family's awakening bloodline! What on earth was going on?!
It was a pity that when he was in this important period, he had already been taken to the underground laboratory. He had no memory of many things, and there were no younger descendants in the royal family, so he had never seen such a scene with his own eyes and was not sure for a while.
There was one person in the royal family who should be very clear about all this: the only prince of the Lan family, his uncle. He took a deep look at the little guy on the bed and suppressed the thought. If the little guy was truly a descendant of the royal family, then the most important thing he should do now was to keep this secret from everyone until the little guy's bloodline power was fully awakened.
This was to protect the little one, and also Changqing. Nothing was more important than this. As for the rest, he could wait until that moment came and then try to verify it.
Lan Sinian calmly suppressed this major event concerning the future of the royal family in his heart. He stayed with Qin Changqing for a while, patted his wife's head, and said softly, "My dear, you are tired. Go and rest. I will watch over him."
Qin Changqing looked up at him, his slightly cold face showing complete dependence. This contrast made Lan Sinian very moved, and his eyes looked at him even more gently.
"Okay, I'll have dinner with you first."
"good."
Lan Sinian kept watch all night long.
His eyes fell on the little guy's face. The more he looked at him, the more he felt that this little guy was really lovable. It had nothing to do with Changqing, but simply because of his appearance, his temperament, his personality, and even the way he looked when he was sleeping obediently, which made people want to pamper him from the bottom of their hearts, want to train and play with him. He felt from the bottom of his heart that the little guy was really the cutest child in the world, no one could compare to him!
He couldn't help but think, how great it would be if this was his own son!
He couldn't help but think, is this the power of blood? Because he might be related to the little guy by blood, a relative, and have a little relationship with him, so he thinks everything about the little guy is good?
His Majesty the Emperor rarely fell into such meaningless questions and pondered for half the night. Finally, he came to a conclusion: no matter whether they were related by blood or not, the little guy had a good relationship with him, and that was their fate!
The marks on Qin Xu's face had faded by the next morning, and he regained consciousness. He opened his eyes and saw his two beloved fathers standing by his bed. He was overjoyed and quickly crawled out, staring at them eagerly, calling out, "Dad, Dad."
Before Qin Changqing could say anything, Lan Sinian had already stretched out his big hand with a smile and covered his head with it, then rocked it back and forth like a tumbler, "What a good boy!"
"Dad, you are still as handsome today!" Qin Xu didn't know whether it was because he had been with his father Lan for too long, and he also learned his sweet-talking skills. His mouth was like honey, so sweet that it touched Lan Sinian's heart!
"He is really my good son!" His Majesty the Emperor had not slept all night, but he was still in high spirits and subconsciously straightened his back. He was indeed very handsome!
Qin Changqing, who was left aside: "..." How come after just one night, he seemed to have become a stepfather?
…
Lan Sinian’s birthday is getting closer, and the Imperial Star seems to be getting more lively.
This was his thirty-fifth birthday. Ten years ago, at the age of twenty-five, he ascended the throne to become the new emperor on this day. After ascending the throne, he not only quelled the troubles deliberately created by the four blood clans during the transition from the old to the new emperor, but also promulgated a number of laws that were more beneficial to the civilians, making the people very supportive of him. Many people spontaneously decided to hold a celebration on this day for everyone to have fun together.
The Empire's Star Station and Star Network contacted the Imperial Palace spokesperson, hoping to broadcast the celebrations held at the palace on this day to bring the royal family closer to the people. The spokesperson thought this was a good plan and immediately reported it to the Emperor and Empress.
At this time, Lan Sinian also received news that the princes of the Snake, Bat, and Locust clans, who had not attended Qin Changqing's birthday party in person, would come to the palace to celebrate his birthday. However, the emperor and his wife did not think their motives were so simple. After careful consideration, they decided to agree to the Star Network live broadcast. This way, if the Blood Clan members really wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, it would actually benefit them.
However, since the event would be broadcast live on Star TV and Star Network, the palace celebration couldn't be boring. Qin Changqing had to urgently recruit various entertainment programs. In addition to inviting the empire's big stars to attract attention, he also invited large orchestras, dance troupes, and other performances to the palace.
After learning about this, Tang Qian contacted him and said, "Mr. Qin, I just recently brought a classical song and dance troupe from Earth. Why don't you give them a chance to perform?"
Qin Changqing couldn't help but sigh at this moment that these businessmen were really good at scheming and never let go of any opportunity! Qin Changqing laughed and naturally agreed, but the program had to be approved by him first, and the members of the song and dance troupe also needed to strictly verify their identities before entering the palace.
"No problem. It just so happens that they recently choreographed a classical dance. I think it's good. You can take a look first."
"good."
Qin Changqing was left in a state of confusion after watching the ancient dance. While this classical dance, while elegant and charming, couldn't escape the theme of "eating and drinking," it tells the story of a Chinese immortal who descends to earth to teach mortals how to identify and cultivate food, and then how to cook delicious dishes. The choreographer is a genius, seamlessly combining two completely incompatible elements: the immortal's beauty with the human passion for hard work, providing a visual feast for the audience. The dance also concludes with a delicious meal imbued with beautiful meaning, a truly fitting tribute!
"What do you think, Mr. Qin?" Tang Qian asked with a smile.
Qin Changqing said with a smile: "Let's keep them, but..." He thought for a moment, then smiled mysteriously and said, "I have to ask you for a favor."
…
Amid the busyness of everyone in the palace, Lan Sinian's birthday finally arrived.
Early that morning, the Emperor and his family woke up early and changed into the formal attire Qin Changqing had prepared for them. The attire was a gorgeous and harmonious parent-child outfit Qin Changqing had personally designed while on Earth.
His Majesty the Emperor has countless clothes, but he's never really worn parent-child outfits! After getting dressed, the three of them stood in front of the mirror, and wow, their status as the pillars of the family was immediately highlighted! His Majesty was incredibly satisfied! His Empress is truly versatile and skillful! They're like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl: you plow the fields while I weave, I fetch water while you water the garden. Wow! A perfect match made in heaven!
Qin Changqing and Qin Xu were both very satisfied, and the whole family was looking forward to this birthday celebration.
All the princes of the seven clans of the empire except the royal family were present this time. Lan Sinian and Qin Changqing personally came out to receive them, but after turning around, they immediately asked people to closely monitor their every move.
Both of them believed that the purpose of certain Blood Party members coming here in person was not simple. However, what they did not expect was that not long after they turned around, Shen Hai reported an unusual situation to them.
"There's a question about the identity of a person accompanying the Snake Clan prince. Prince Suo said this person was his subordinate, but his subordinates discovered that this person had a past that was deliberately obscured."
Qin Changqing and Lan Sinian exchanged a glance, and Lan Sinian said in a deep voice, "Send his information over."
"yes."
