Hearing the other party's voice, Zhu Yunxuan's whole body's blood seemed to solidify, and the hand on Xu'er's waist gradually tightened. Flower lanterns, until Zhu Yunxuan reminded him in a low voice, "Xuan'er can take it if he wants."

The little doll took over the lantern with joy, and thanked the other party obediently: "Thank you uncle."

Liang Zhen's eyes fell on Zhu Yunxuan's wrist, and the smile in his eyes grew stronger. Zhu Yunxuan returned to his senses, changed his arms to hold the child, pulled down his sleeves without a trace, and nodded with him, without showing the slightest sign, said indifferently: "thanks."

When he passed by, Liang Zhen raised his hand and lightly blocked it, Zhu Yunxuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the guard behind him immediately stepped forward, with his long sword drawn halfway, watching Liang Zhen eagerly.

Liang Zhen let out a "tsk" and stared at Zhu Yunxuan with good eyes, only to see that his eyelashes were half-closed, and all the emotions sank into his eyes, so he couldn't see it clearly.

After a short stalemate, Liang Zhen stepped aside, Zhu Yunxuan held the child and walked forward without looking back.

Xu'er lay on Zhu Yunxuan's shoulder and turned her head, staring blankly at Liang Zhen who had been standing there watching them go away, seemingly aware of the change in Zhu Yunxuan's mood, the little doll called him timidly: "Little uncle …”

Zhu Yunxuan patted him on the back and comforted him softly: "It's okay."

"Uncle is watching us."

"……Um."

After that, Zhu Yunxuan walked around the market absent-mindedly holding the child for half an hour, and finally met Zhu Yunjing and a few more in front of a juggling stall. Zhu Yunjing saw that he was still happy at first, but now he looked lost and raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.

Xu'er was holding his rabbit lantern to show off to Ming'er: "Look at my little rabbit lantern, it's so cute, an uncle gave it to me."

Zhu Yunjing: "..."

He looked at Zhu Yunxuan, who was reluctant to leave, and hesitated. In the end, he didn't say anything, only reminded him: "Let's go, let's go and have a look."

Continue to walk forward to the beach. After the night gets darker, everyone flocks here to put sky lanterns on the beach to pray for blessings.

The slowly rising sky lanterns flickered brightly, constantly floating toward the jet-black night sky, shining like stars.

Xu'er raised her little head and stared intently at the sky lantern that floated farther and farther, exclaiming from time to time. Zhu Yunjing and He Huailing had already led Ming'er to put out the lamp. The child took Zhu Yunxuan's hand and looked at him eagerly: "Uncle, I also want to put out the lamp."

Zhu Yunxuan pressed down the troubled thoughts in his heart and nodded: "Okay."

Walking to the booth selling sky lanterns, Zhu Yunxuan asked for paper and pen, but he picked up the pen but didn't know what to write. After a moment of silence, he asked the child in a low voice, "Xuan'er, do you have any wishes?"

The child thought about it seriously, shook his head again, Zhu Yunxuan sighed softly, and finally only wrote the words "Haiyan Heqing" on the paper.

He handed the pen back to the stall owner. The moment the other party caught it, Zhu Yunxuan was stunned again. The person on the opposite side changed to the one wearing the mask at some point. He had already taken over the pen and paper in Zhu Yunxuan's hand and smiled. With a smile, three words "Good Day" were added to the back of the note.

Handing the sky lantern with the prayer note to Zhu Yunxuan, Liang Zhen blinked and disappeared into the crowd in a flash. Zhu Yunxuan stood there in a daze, until Xu'er next to him called him softly, and then he regained his senses in a trance.

"Uncle, what are you looking at?"

"It's nothing... let's go, let's go ahead and set the sky lantern."

When he returned to the General Military Mansion, Xu'er, who was tired of playing, fell asleep in Zhu Yunxuan's arms when he was in the car. Zhu Yunxuan took him out of the car and handed him over to Zhu Yunjing, but Zhu Yunjing didn't pick it up. Remind him: "Don't you want to take him to sleep with him? Anyway, he fell asleep right now, just carry him to your place."

Zhu Yunxuan glanced at the child in his arms and shook his head lightly: "Forget it, if he wakes up later, he might cry without seeing you."

"You, just think too much."

The two were talking, and the little baby had already rubbed his eyes and woke up. He saw Zhu Yunxuan in a daze, and subconsciously grabbed his arm, Zhu Yunxuan trembled in his heart, and asked him in a low voice, "Xuan'er, tonight. Uncle, will you sleep with me?"

The child finally woke up, glanced at Zhu Yunxuan, then turned to look at Zhu Yunjing, hesitated for a long time, then nodded: "Okay."

Zhu Yunxuan hugged the child tightly, and Zhu Yunjing said with a smile: "I'll just say it, if you take him for one night, he won't be willing to get close to you."

Zhu Yunxuan smiled with red eyes: "Well."

Carrying the child back to the residence, Zhu Yunxuan was still a little dazed, but Gao An was extremely happy, and swiftly instructed the people to wait on Zhu Yunxuan and the little prince to wash and change clothes, and were attentive and ready.

"Little Highness, are you still hungry or not, do you want to have a late-night snack, will the servants ask someone to prepare it for you?"

Xu'er sat in Zhu Yunxuan's arms, looking at Gao An who was smiling so hard that he could not see his eyes, tilted his head, as if he didn't understand what the other party was talking to him, and looked up at Zhu Yunxuan: "Little uncle, who is he? ?"

Zhu Yunxuan caressed his son's little face amusingly, and instructed Gao An: "Go to the kitchen and see for yourself, the cooks here should all know what Xu'er likes to eat, get some food, don't make too much, or eat too much. After a while he couldn't sleep again."

"No! The slaves are going!

Xu'er twisted her body in Zhu Yunxuan's arms and asked him in a low voice, "Uncle, did you give me those little rabbits and dogs made of bamboo?"

Zhu Yunxuan touched his head: "Xuan'er knows?"

"Dad said..."

"Does Xu'er like it?"

"I like it!" The child nodded vigorously.

Zhu Yunxuan smiled and told him: "My uncle gave me Xu'er, but those things weren't made by my uncle, they were made by... an uncle for Xu'er."

Xu'er blinked lightly: "Which uncle?"

"Xuan'er will know later." Zhu Yunxuan squeezed the child's palm lightly, without further explanation.

The kitchen brought a small bowl of custard over, and Zhu Yunxuan held the child and fed him spoonful by spoonful. Xu'er stared at him for a while, and when Zhu Yunxuan brought the food to his mouth again, he whispered, "My uncle eats too, so don't be unhappy about it."

Zhu Yunxuan suddenly came back to his senses, with a smile on his face: "Uncle is not hungry, uncle is not unhappy, why does Xu'er say that?"

The child pouted: "Xu'er guessed, little uncle is not happy to see that uncle at night..."

Zhu Yunxuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Xu'er to be so sensitive when he was only three years old. After being exposed by his son, he felt more and more embarrassed, but he was reluctant to admit it: "No, I'm very happy to have Xu'er with my little uncle."

"Really?"

"real."

After feeding the child, Zhu Yunxuan took the hot handkerchief handed over by the servant and wiped the child's face with his own hands. Xu'er didn't move, he obediently let him move, and finally grinned at him with a sweet smile: "Thank you little uncle. "

Zhu Yunxuan's heart softened: "Good boy."

Xu'er put her arms around his neck, put it on it and slapped it, and gave him a strong kiss on the face. After finishing it, she slid into his arms a little embarrassedly, and said coquettishly, "Xuan'er likes little uncle so much."

The smile in Zhu Yunxuan's eyes deepened, he lowered his head, and put a kiss on the child's soft and tender face: "Little uncle also likes Xu'er."

Being carried to bed, the little guy was still very excited, tossing and turning, refusing to sleep, clinging to Zhu Yunxuan's arm and asking him to tell him a story.

Zhu Yunxuan patted his back lightly and said slowly, "There used to be a little rabbit..."

"Rabbit!" As soon as he heard the rabbit, the little guy's eyes lit up immediately.

"Well, the little rabbit is a lonely little rabbit. Other rabbits have daddy but he doesn't. He always asks people why I don't have a daddy. No one can answer him. In fact, he also has a daddy. His rabbit has a daddy. In the Moon Palace, when the time comes, he will come and take him to the Moon Palace, but Daddy Rabbit is very worried. He doesn't know if the little rabbit is willing to go with him. He is afraid that the little rabbit will not want him. Rabbit, is he willing to go to the Moon Palace with Daddy Rabbit?"

The child stared blankly, before nodding lightly for a long time: "I'm going."

Zhu Yunxuan's nose was sour, and he smiled and kissed his forehead: "Good baby."

Xu'er's dark eyes stared at him for a moment, and asked cautiously, "Little uncle, are you my father?"

Looking at the child's expectant and anxious eyes, Zhu Yunxuan was slightly startled, and said, "Xuan'er wants me to be your father?"

The child flattened his mouth in grievance and slowly turned his eyes red: "I already have a daddy, but Mammy said that daddy is not my daddy, woo..."

Zhu Yunxuan took the child into his arms, blamed himself and felt distressed, and choked out: "Xuan'er don't cry anymore, Xu'er is good, Xu'er has a father, I am Xu'er's biological father, and my father came to pick up Xu'er to go to the Moon Palace. , is it okay for Xu'er to go with Daddy?"

"Why didn't Daddy not want Xu'er before?"

The little child was crying out of breath in his arms, Zhu Yunxuan sat up, picked him up, patted him on the back and coaxed him: "Daddy's good baby, don't cry, it's Daddy's fault , Daddy will never want Xu'er again in the future."

Outside the door, Zhu Yunjing stopped. He came here specially to see the uneasy one big and small. Hearing the faint voice inside, Zhu Yunjing smiled and sighed. After a moment, he turned to leave.

Inside the inn, Liang Zhen leaned against the window, quietly looking at the direction of the General Military Mansion, only the faintly visible lights could be seen.

The night filled his dark pupils, obscuring all the emotions hidden in them.

Someone pushed the door and came in to bring him tea. Seeing him like this, he hesitated and asked, "Major General, we have been here for almost two months. When will we go back?"

Liang Zhen closed his eyes, hooked his lips and smiled: "What's the hurry, things haven't been done yet."
