Being blocked by Zhu Yunxuan's conversation, Liang Zhen burst out laughing: "I haven't seen you for three years, Your Majesty is more cunning than before."

Zhu Yunxuan snorted coldly: "It's not as good as you, always so unrestrained and unrestrained."

Liang Zhen cheekily regarded the other party's sarcasm as a compliment, and responded with a smile: "Your Majesty praised me, I'm ashamed to deserve it."

The child sitting in Zhu Yunxuan's arms kept staring at Liang Zhen curiously, and was attracted by the mask on his face. He asked him in a milky voice, "Uncle, why do you keep covering your face?"

Liang Zhen looked at him with a smile: "Do you want to see what Uncle looks like, little baby?"

Xu'er nodded subconsciously: "Can I see it?"

"Of course you can watch it, little baby."

Liang Zhen raised his hand and took off the mask. He smiled and winked at Xu'er. The child's eyes widened in surprise and blurted out, "Rabbit kite!"

It turned out that the uncle who gave him the rabbit lantern was the uncle who helped him find the rabbit kite. Xu'er was very happy, she raised her head excitedly and told Zhu Yunxuan: "Dad, it's this uncle who helped me find the rabbit kite that was blown away. Here, it's the little rabbit I drew myself."

Zhu Yunxuan looked away uncomfortably: "...Really?"

"Well, Uncle is very good-looking, Xu'er remembers."

Zhu Yunxuan: "..."

Liang Zhen burst into laughter: "This little doll is really interesting, Your Majesty taught me well..."

Xu'er, who was laughed at, was very embarrassed, and smirked happily, Liang Zhen raised his eyebrows with Zhu Yunxuan playfully: "Your Majesty hasn't answered my question yet, when did His Majesty stand up or accept the concubine, why? With such a big little prince?"

Zhu Yunxuan's eyes darkened, and he said coldly: "Why do I need to explain my private affairs to you, a sloppy citizen, my prince naturally has a dignified identity, so I don't have to worry about you."

"Isn't it okay to ask?"

"Nothing to do with you."

Seemingly aware of the tension between the two, Xu'er looked up at Zhu Yunxuan again, and whispered to him: "Dad, don't quarrel with Uncle..."

Zhu Yunxuan pressed down the irritability in his heart and picked up the child: "Xuan'er, let's go."

Xu'er nodded obediently, turned her head and waved to Liang Zhen: "Uncle, see you next time."

"Is this gone? When will I have to wait until next time before I can see Your Majesty again?" Liang Zhen looked up at Zhu Yunxuan, who had stood up, and there was an eager light in his half-smiley eyes.

Zhu Yunxuan lightly closed his eyes and answered him calmly: "You don't have to do this, since I let you go three years ago, I have no plans to have any entanglement with you, King Zhao is dead, you have changed your name and surname, now you are living well. It’s also happy, so why bother with those things in the past.”

The smile on Liang Zhen's lips gradually faded, and he looked at Zhu Yunxuan deeply, trying to see what he was really thinking.

"Your Majesty, it's been three years, and you're still like this, don't you want to face your true feelings? You don't want to see me again, so why do you want to wear my string of beads with you? And this child, who was able to give away and even cheat I said he was gone, why do you want to bring him back now?"

Zhu Yunxuan tightened his hand on Xu'er's waist: "I need an heir."

"As long as you have a concubine, don't say one, it is easy to want ten heirs, but you haven't, you haven't married a wife for three years, I thought you understood enough, so I came back to find You, but you want to push me out, what do you want?"

"What I want is none of your business."

"So in the end, it's still my wishful thinking and selfishness, isn't it?"

Zhu Yunxuan pursed the corners of his lips lightly, and without saying anything, he hugged the child and turned to leave.

When they went downstairs, Xu'er put her arms around Zhu Yunxuan's neck and asked him timidly, "Dad, are you angry with your uncle?"

Zhu Yunxuan patted him on the back to reassure him, without saying anything, the little baby said again: "Then I will ignore Uncle from now on, Daddy don't want to be angry with Xuer."

"Good boy," Zhu Yunxuan murmured in a low voice, "Daddy is not angry, you are good."

In the afternoon, the father and son had been wandering around in the West Market, Zhu Yunxuan's interest had faded a lot, and Liang Zhen followed suit. To rush people, had to let him follow. Seeing that it was not early, ordered people to find the Yuanbao and the others, and planned to return home.

Xu'er eagerly looked at a big conch hanging on the stall opposite. Before Zhu Yunxuan could speak, Liang Zhen went over to buy something and handed it to the child.

The conch was as big as the palm of an adult's hand, with dazzling colors and very flat and beautiful patterns, so it was no wonder that Xu'er fell in love with it at a glance. When the conch was handed to him, the little doll's eyes first lit up for a moment, and then he suppressed the desire in his heart and shook his head: "I don't want it."

Liang Zhen smiled softly: "Really not?"

The little baby glanced at the conch in his hand again, lowered his eyes, and said firmly, "No."

Liang Zhen looked at Zhu Yunxuan and shook his head disapprovingly: "It's fine for your Majesty to be angry with me, why bother to provoke the relationship between me and the child."

Zhu Yunxuan frowned, lightly tapped his finger on Xu'er's shoulder, and reminded him in a low voice, "Take it if you want."

Xu'er looked up at him: "Isn't Daddy angry?"

Zhu Yunxuan coughed awkwardly: "No."

So the little baby "reluctantly" accepted the conch, hugged it in his arms and looked at it carefully, and rubbed it for a while, but still felt embarrassed, shyly thanked Liang Zhen who had been smiling at him: "Thank you uncle. "

Liang Zhen stretched out his hand and squeezed his little face, and said with a smile, "It's as difficult to serve as your father."

The Yuanbao and Zhu Yunqiong, who were sweating profusely, came back happily, and Zhu Yunxuan asked someone to pull the carriage and drive them to the carriage.

Liang Zhen folded his arms, looked at Zhu Yunqiong who climbed into the car behind Yuanbao, and asked Zhu Yunxuan: "That's His Highness Ninth? When did His Majesty take this kid with you?"

Zhu Yunxuan glanced at him vigilantly, and said calmly, "That's my ninth brother, I don't need others to tell me what I want to do."

Liang Zhen raised his hand with a smile, wiped his neck, lowered his voice and reminded Zhu Yunxuan: "Your Majesty, this kid will be a scourge sooner or later. For the sake of your day, you should not keep him."

Zhu Yunxuan's expression turned cold, and he stopped ignoring him. He got into the car with Xu'er in his arms, and slammed the door behind him.

Watching the emperor's carriage go away, the smile on the corner of Liang Zhen's mouth gradually narrowed, and he instructed the subordinates who appeared behind him: "Find someone to stare at the ninth highness next to the emperor, don't ask those people to come into contact with him."

The person behind him respectfully took the order: "No!"

At night, Zhu Yunxuan sat in a daze under the corridor in the yard, Xuer was lying on his arms and covered with a thin blanket and fell asleep. Zhu Yunjing came over with a pot of wine, sat down next to him, and handed a wine glass Go to him.

Zhu Yunxuan held the cup and asked him absently, "Is Ming'er feeling better?"

"I have seen it from the imperial doctor. I have taken the medicine and it is much better. I will be able to get better tomorrow after a sleep."

Zhu Yunxuan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Zhu Yunjing poured out the wine, took a sip, and told him: "This is the wine sent by Qiguan, it tastes very good, you can try it."

Zhu Yunxuan put the wine in the cup into his mouth, and the tip of his tongue instantly tasted the spicy taste. As expected of the wine sent from the north, it was probably good, but he didn't have much intention to taste the wine.

Zhu Yunjing saw that he was in a state of restlessness, and sighed with a smile: "In the afternoon, Xu'er came back and told me that you met the uncle who picked him up a kite last time at the sea market?"

Zhu Yunxuan's eyelashes were half-drooped, he took another sip of his wine, and said in a muffled voice, "Brother, are you here to see my joke?"

Zhu Yunjing smiled lazily and said, "It's clearly because of your own guilty conscience that you came up with such thoughts... When you first arrived in Quanzhou that day, when I mentioned it to you, he guessed that there will be today, you have been If you stay here and don't leave, isn't it really because you want to see him again?"

Zhu Yunxuan was speechless, and after a long silence, he said: "Brother, when I asked you why you had to follow Duke Dingguo, you said that you would also be lonely... After you left Beijing, I was the only one left by my side. Someone who can talk, I slowly understand what you mean. Over the years... I know it's wrong and I shouldn't think about it anymore, but I always can't help myself. I'm really... so lonely... …”

"...Then what do you think?"

Zhu Yunxuan's gloomy eyes fell on the open space in the courtyard with mottled trees, and he murmured in a hoarse voice: "I want him, but I dare not, I can't, I am the emperor, he is a minister who has already been executed by me, if he dies As for the resurrection, how should I explain to the world... What's more, I can't believe him, even if I know that he actually didn't have a second heart, I can't forget the things he did to me at all. Dare to bet, when will he suddenly change his face again and force me to do things that I don't want to do or even feel humiliating."

Zhu Yunjing was at a loss for words, thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "If I were to say it, I always thought that he was not a thing, if He Huailing was like him back then, I would have to fight him hard, you finally gave him to him. If it wasn't for Xu'er, there should have been no contact between the two of you long ago. Now that he is entangled again, your heart is shaken. I don't advise you, just remind you that no matter what decision you make , don't embarrass yourself."

Zhu Yunxuan drank the wine in the cup and poured himself another cup. The bitter taste spread from his throat to the bottom of his heart: "I don't want to think about it, fortunately, there is still Xu'er..."

He cup after cup, and soon became drunk, Zhu Yunjing picked Xu'er up and instructed Gao An to help Zhu Yunxuan in and wait for him to rest: "Good life, serve Your Majesty, light some incense and let him sleep well. ."

Gao An hurriedly responded: "Nuo, the servant knows, you can rest assured, Lord of the country."

Zhu Yunjing sighed, he came to Zhu Yunxuan with wine, his original intention was to get him drunk and let him sleep well, otherwise he would have to sit in the yard all night again.

Xu'er woke up in a daze in Zhu Yunjing's arms, subconsciously called "Daddy", and then saw who it was, and was a little embarrassed for a while, Zhu Yunjing smiled and lowered his head and kissed him: "Let's go. Come on baby, Daddy will take you to sleep, I'm afraid you won't have a chance in a few days."
