In the lobby, two little boys with beautiful faces were chased and beaten by Saihan holding a stick.
One of them suddenly hugged her legs and shouted decisively to the other, "Xiao Wu, run!"
"Brother..." Xiao Wu struggled for a moment, turned around and ran out.
"Damn it!" Saihan kicked him away, grabbed his hair, lifted him up, slapped his little buttocks, and laughed wildly as he slapped him, "Little prince? Sixth prince?"
The heir to the throne? Haha..."
Six years have passed without leaving any trace on the face of this once stunningly beautiful woman, but the resentment in her eyes is growing day by day, especially when she sees these two extremely beautiful "sons"
, the pain of losing her son would always overwhelm her reason.
Xiaowen bit her sleeve tightly and said nothing. A pair of indifferent eyes vaguely revealed the shadow of someone.
He didn't understand why his aunt didn't like them since he was a child? Was it because they didn't do enough?
"It's you, you took everything away!" Saihan raised his palm crazily.
Duan Yichen treated them as if they were treasures, holding them in her hands and protecting them, teaching them to read and practice martial arts. But these should clearly belong to her sons!
"Princess! Princess, stop!"
Uncle Liu held Xiao Wu's hand and ran in hurriedly. Seeing Xiao Wen's wrinkled clothes and torn hair, he felt distressed and rushed over to block him, "Princess! Stop fighting!"
"Get out of the way!" Saihan roared angrily, "Do you not even take me seriously? Are you going to disobey my orders?"
"Princess, the two young princes are children after all. How can the adults' fault be blamed on them?"
"Now that I am their mother, I can beat them if I want and scold them if I want. Who can stop me?!"
Uncle Liu was also angry. He held Xiao Wu with one hand and Xiao Wen with the other, and said seriously, "As long as there are slaves in the palace, I will protect the two young princes! If the princess still wants to be angry, just beat the slaves."
That’s it! This slave’s old life is enough for me to survive till now!”
After saying that, he took the two children and left.
"Come back! This princess orders you to come back! Come back!"
Saihan's hysterical roar came from the room.
Returning to the room, Uncle Liu carefully applied medicine to Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu, and looked at the twins lovingly, "Little Prince, does it hurt?"
The two of them shook their heads in unison, "It doesn't hurt."
The delicate face is impeccably beautiful. At first glance, it looks like a combination of Zifei and Xiaoxiao. Less indifferent and more aura.
Xiaowen said calmly, "Mom doesn't seem to like my brother and I. There must be something wrong with us."
Xiao Wu curled his lips. Although he had the same face as Xiao Wen, there was a hint of scorn on his pretty face.
"That's not true! If you don't say hello, you'll get beaten. If you say hello, you'll still get beaten. No matter whether we do well or not, in short, it's okay to be beaten. Humph, I don't want a mother like this!"
"Xiao Wu!" Xiao Wen glared at his brother accusingly.
Xiao Wu stuck out his tongue. Compared to his father, he seemed to be more afraid of his brother who was only half an hour older than him.
Uncle Liu's eyes were red and he sighed, "Hey, it's not your fault. You didn't do anything wrong at all."
How could he not know that the princess had hatred in her heart and took it out on the two young princes. The two children were surprisingly smart and sensible, and remained silent every time they were beaten. They were still as angry in front of the princes.
How wonderful it would be if such a good child were born to the prince...
In the afternoon, Duan Yichen returned to the palace.
The handsome face still has the evil spirit, the slender eyes add a bit of mature and restrained charm, and the soft smile at the corner of the mouth is charming.
In the past six years, many things have happened. Duan Yunyan voluntarily gave up the throne and disappeared again. He had intended to withdraw from the fight, and Duan Xiaoqi accepted it naturally and proclaimed himself emperor. Although he had no intention of participating in government affairs, Duan Xiaoqi was never at ease with him.
, but whenever there was a major political issue, he would still be announced to the palace for discussion. It is undeniable that Duan Yichen is a rare talent for governing the country.
As soon as he entered the house, two little guys ran out immediately, "Father!"
They rushed over excitedly, Duan Yichen smiled lovingly, and hugged each other with one hand.
Xiao Wen's brows furrowed suddenly, and although he quickly and carefully hid it, Duan Yichen's slightly lowered eyes still caught the expression on his face.
Walking into Linglong Pavilion, Saihan was grabbing a vase and throwing it on the ground. After Abi left, her temperament changed drastically and she no longer wanted any personal maids.
Seeing Duan Yichen, she stopped coldly and said mockingly, "Your Majesty, you are really a rare visitor, or is it that you are in the wrong place and you think this is Mo Yu Pavilion?"
Duan Yi looked at her seriously, walked closer, and grabbed her arm, "I'm warning you, if you dare to hurt one of their fingers again, I will throw you into a water prison!"
Saihan broke away and sneered, "If it weren't for the sake of that poor child, you would have wanted to kick me out of the palace a long time ago so that the crazy woman could become the princess!"
"In the past few years, I have tolerated you again and again, because of that child, I am really ashamed of you." Duan Yi raised his evil eyes, pursed his thin lips, and approached her suddenly, a little bit of chill seeping out, which was worse than before.
Xie Cheng was even more horrified, "Have you seen what those two children did? They tried their best to please you and get your mother's love, but how did you treat them?"
Saihan suddenly became furious. She pushed him away fiercely and kept yelling at him, "I don't care about those two bastards! You just want them to become your legitimate heirs.
They call me mother! Otherwise, the child born by a crazy woman will be ridiculed. Duan Yichen, why do you have to say it so nicely? It's really ridiculous!"
He watched her vent with cold eyes, and finally turned around and said, "You are not allowed to get closer to them!"
"Don't even think about it! Don't forget, I am their mother! Unless you kill me, I will not let them go!"
"Oh? Really?" He stopped suddenly, looked back, and raised one corner of his lips, "I will not kill you, but I will make the Blue Phoenix Clan bear all the mistakes you make."
Saihan froze on the spot, her face pale and twisted, until his figure disappeared. She grabbed the vase and slammed it on the door, "I hate you! I hate all of you!"
During dinner, Duan Yichen went to Moyu Pavilion as usual.
For six years, whenever he was in the house, he would have dinner with her. This was also the most relaxing moment for him in the day.
As soon as he walked in, two small figures emerged from the flowers.
"Brother," Xiao Wu frowned and asked curiously, "Why does daddy come here every night?"
Xiaowen's seemingly emotionless eyes stared there thoughtfully, "I heard people talking about it in chatting, and there is a madman locked up here."
"Crazy?" Xiao Wu opened his mouth wide. In his young heart, he always felt that crazy people are very scary monsters.
Xiaowen tilted his head in confusion and thought for a long time, then why did his father pay so much attention to a madman? He never allowed them to get close!
A glimmer of light that did not belong to a child of the same age suddenly flashed in his eyes. He must find out who the person inside was!
**********
The woman sitting in front of the window is still immersed in her own world.
Even though her eyes were blank and her expression was dull, she was still so charming and charming. Even if he forgot everyone, even himself, in his eyes, she was still a unique and irreplaceable person.
For six years, she looked into the distance all the time, as if waiting and hoping. There was always only a blurry image in those big beautiful eyes. No matter how hard he tried, she never looked him in the eye.
"Yingying, it's time to eat." He walked over gently, helped her up and walked to the table.
Xiaoxiao seemed to have a soulless body, letting him support her, and sat down, staring at the table stiffly. Duan Yichen first handed her the chopsticks, and then put all the dishes she liked into the bowl.
"I haven't been in the mansion these days. I heard from Uncle Liu that you eat very little every meal?"
Xiaoxiao picked up the chopsticks numbly and ate the food in the bowl in front of her without even raising her head. Duan Yichen's gentle and magnetic voice sounded in her ears.
Her silence did not affect his conversation at all. He would slowly tell her everything about the day, no matter how big or small...
Looking at her defenseless sleeping face, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. His fingers slid across her tender cheeks and stayed on her lips for a long time, reluctant to leave.
If time could stay here forever, he would give everything he had in exchange.
Happiness is actually really simple.
Gradually, the lights in the room went out.
The door opened, Duan Yichen walked out and closed it gently. He whispered a few instructions to the guards guarding outside, then turned and went to the study.
In six years, he had never forced himself on her when she was unconscious.
If we talk about love, this is the minimum.
Moyu Pavilion is too quiet, and the cold night, against the backdrop of the moonlight, does not seem so lonely.
Suddenly, a white shadow flashed across the steps. It was small and round. It was as fast as the blink of an eyelid, and it disappeared into the long corridor.
After entering Xiaoxiao's room, a guinea pig rushed to the bed in a few steps, sat on her chest, and scanned her sleeping face with its small, round eyes. It felt distressed and sighed heavily in annoyance,
"Silly girl! What a stupid girl!"
It stood up straight, looked out the window, and saw that the moon was at its highest point. Without wasting any more time, it immediately straightened its body, quickly changed its posture with its two little paws in front of it, and shouted, "Open!"
A soft white halo rose from the top of his head, slowly fell on Xiaoxiao's forehead, and finally disappeared.
The person who was dreaming opened her eyes suddenly, as if she had had a long dream. After a moment of sluggishness, the mist in her eyes slowly dissipated, revealing a pair of originally clear and moist eyes.
Xiaotian was so happy that he jumped onto the table next to him and looked at her with a smile.
The focus gradually came closer. When she saw Xiaotian, she was stunned and couldn't look away for a long time. The next moment, she closed her eyes.
Xiaotian smiled and shook his head, "What a sin, I didn't expect it would be six years since I left. If I came back earlier, maybe you should wake up earlier."
She still didn't respond, but two lines of tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes...
Xiaotian stared at her and said with heartache, "Silly girl, it's dawn, the sun has come out, you can't stay in bed any longer..."
Xiaoxiao opened her eyes, and her eyes were filled with the long-lost sparkle.
After a long time, she sat up, got out of bed, and opened the window.
Outside the window, the bright moon is in the sky, and the night sky is decorated with stars, just like every peaceful and peaceful night before, every night has its own.
Tears fell down drop by drop, gathered into strings, and condensed into beads.
She took a deep breath of the night air, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, turned around, and looked at Xiaotian with a smile, "I slept for a long time."
Xiaotian smiled happily and nodded.
"Xiaotian, I want to ask you to do something for me."
"Okay, you say."
If you listen carefully, it is not difficult to find that Xiaotian's attitude is not only refreshing, but also a little more obedient...
"Help me find Wu Yan Wu Feng and others."
At this time, Xiaoxiao has given up the cloak of youth and is calm, wise and generous.
It seems that the six-year gap is a real growth process for her. She has not closed herself off, but has learned to look at everything with her mind.
Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, "Looking for them? You want to..."
Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded.
"Yeah!" Xiaotian nodded clearly, "Just wait for my news." After that, he jumped off the table and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
She turned around and looked out the window again. Looking at the moon, it was clear, light, and a little cold, but it would warm every heart that sleeps alone at night.
Just like him.
Early the next morning, Duan Yichen was admitted to the palace by an imperial edict. As soon as his carriage left, two small figures sneaked to the entrance of Moyu Pavilion.
"Brother, there are a lot of people guarding here, how are we going to get in?" Xiao Wu scratched his head in embarrassment.
Xiaowen calmly took out a slingshot from his arms, "Since we can't get in, why not let that madman come out?"
When Xiao Wu heard this, his eyes immediately lit up and he looked at his brother with admiration, "Brother, you are so awesome!"
Xiao Wen didn't say anything. He skillfully picked up a pebble, pointed it at the window that was always closed during the day, and loosened the rubber band with a snap. The pebble hit the edge of the window accurately.
no response.
Xiao Wu turned around and pointed, "Brother, I didn't hear you."
Xiao Wen calmly picked up another one and knocked it out again.
The guards heard the sound and turned around to take a look, but found nothing.
At this moment, Xiao Wu suddenly patted his brother excitedly, "Brother! Look, the door is open, the door is open!"
Xiaowen stared there with a determined smile on his face.
Xiaoxiao opened the door and walked out slowly. The guard outside the door was startled, but when he saw her dull expression and dull eyes, he followed her with confidence, not noticing that she had become clear.
Eyes. As long as she doesn't make any mistakes, the prince still hopes that she can go out of the house more.
The moment they saw Xiaoxiao, the two little guys lying in the grass were stunned.
"Brother, she is that lunatic? But it doesn't look like it, and..." Xiao Wu tilted his head, there was always a strange feeling in his heart, but he couldn't say what it was, so he could only pluck his hair lazily,
"Although she is not as beautiful as my mother, she is not bad. She looks much more pleasing to the eye than my mother."
After saying that, he nodded to himself, yes, that's it. I don't know why, but he just hates his mother. Of course, he didn't dare to say this in front of his brother.
Xiaowen frowned slightly. Could it be that she is his father's woman? Like Mrs. Li?
Just when the two brothers were confused, a guard had noticed them and said, "You two young princes, please leave here immediately."
Xiao Wu raised his eyebrows and stood up. Although he was young, he was full of energy and said, "My cricket ran here. We are here to find it."
"My subordinates will find it for the young prince. It's better to ask the young prince to leave."
Xiaowen also stood up, with the same outstanding appearance, but a different calm expression, "Are you ordering us?" His tone was calm, not angry or intimidating.
The guards said respectfully, "I don't dare."
Xiao Wu's face was stern, "Why don't you back down quickly?"
"Well, young prince, this is a forbidden area in the mansion. No one is allowed to trespass! If young prince doesn't leave, I won't blame my subordinates for being rude." With that said, the guards were about to step forward. I don't know who shouted.
He shouted, "See you, Princess!"
Not far away, the gorgeous Saihan stared at this side with cold eyes and walked slowly over.
Several people were stunned, and quickly stepped aside, lowered their heads, "See you, Princess."
When the two brothers saw that it was their mother, they unconsciously frowned and called out in a low voice, "Mother."
Saihan walked closer, glanced at the Moyu Pavilion, a sneer appeared on his lips, looked back, and involuntarily slapped the two brothers with his hand.
"So unruly! Don't you even listen to my father's orders?!"
Clear fingerprints immediately appeared on the pink and tender face. When the surrounding servants saw it, they all lowered their heads, and no one dared to say a word. But in their hearts, they were sweating for the little prince, and only asked for the princess.
I can think about some family affection.
Xiaowen bit his lip, walked up to her, raised his head and said, "Mom, it's all my fault. I taught my brother bad things. If you want to punish me, just punish me."
Seeing that his brother wanted to carry it down alone, Xiao Wu became anxious, stood in front of his brother, and said confidently, "Brother has nothing to do with it! It was all my idea! If you want to hit me, just hit me!"
Saihan raised his eyebrows in interest, "The love between brothers is really deep, and I'm so happy for my mother! But don't worry, my mother won't favor one person over another. If you want to punish me, just punish me with the same amount."
She smiled sweetly, stretched out her hand, "rattan."
A cane was immediately handed over.
Xiaowen's expression didn't change, but he glanced at his brother worriedly. Xiaowu smiled at him, "Brother, it's okay."
The servants couldn't bear to look away. Saihan smiled ferociously and raised the cane in a flash, just as it was about to fall down. Xiaowen and Xiaowu closed their eyes directly, frowned together, gritted their teeth and waited for them to be touched.
of rattan.
At this moment, a palm-sized pebble suddenly flew over. Saihan was startled and immediately turned sideways to avoid it. But what she didn't expect was that two more pebbles were thrown at her in succession. She quickly avoided the second one, but the second one was thrown at her.
The three pieces were not so lucky and hit her hand holding the cane directly.
"Ah!" She screamed in pain, and the guards on both sides rushed forward, "Who? Actually hurt the princess?!"
The two brothers also opened their eyes, and when they saw the person coming, they were all stunned.
