Xi Honglei heard Chen'er keep clamoring to practice Kung Fu, and seeing that there was nothing to do at the moment, she nodded and agreed to him.
He casually broke off a wicker stick from the willow tree in the courtyard and threw it to Chen'er. Xi Honglei couldn't help but chuckle as he watched Chen'er gesticulate and show him the moves he knew.
"Hands should be higher." Xi Honglei squatted down and taught Chen'er step by step. "Chen'er, don't look anywhere else!"
As soon as Chen'er was distracted, he was caught by Xi Honglei. Sticking out his tongue, Chen'er chuckled and continued to practice kung fu as Xi Honglei said. The two of them were concentrating in the hospital, unknowingly.
, this time also passed very quickly.
"Mother." Xi Zichen looked around. After making sure that no one was around, he ran to Xi Honglei's side, raised his hand and held Xi Honglei's finger, raised a smile and asked in a low voice: "I'll give it to you next time."
Let dad teach me martial arts, okay?"
Chen'er suddenly mentioned Mu Yunmenglai, which made Xi Honglei's expression startled. Then he smiled slightly and nodded. She looked at Chen'er covering her mouth and chuckling. Xi Honglei always felt that Chen'er had something.
What a little secret, but she couldn't notice it for a while.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Xi Honglei packed up, took Chen'er back to the house to take a bath, and prepared to take him to Ran Yunpo's place. But when Xi Honglei was getting ready to go, he discovered something was wrong.
The place.
Xi Honglei tilted her head, standing at the door and looking out with a frown.
Although Chen'er was not afraid of strangers since he was a child, he was not ready to talk and laugh with strangers when he saw them. But right now, what Xi Honglei saw was Xi Zichen's fawning expression.
He was pulling on another man's clothes, as if begging for something. And that man was one of the several guards sent by Ran Yunhao.
This man had just entered the palace less than a few days ago. When did Chen'er become so familiar with him?
Xi Honglei stared at the two of them intently, until the man turned to look at her and their eyes met, Xi Honglei bit her lower lip and walked out.
"Mother." Xi Zichen noticed that Xi Honglei had come out, and quickly stood up and looked at Xi Honglei.
"Yeah." Xi Honglei snorted and looked straight at the man in front of him. After scanning his clothes, Xi Honglei asked suspiciously: "What were you two talking about just now?"
"Mother, he said he has some good things he brought from outside the palace to give to Chen'er!" Xi Zichen said before anyone else could speak: "Mother, Chen'er wants it!"
Is it credible to say that you want to give Chen'er something good for no reason?
Xihong lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, curled her lips, and said coldly, "Stay away from my son from now on."
"Yes." The man had a smile on his lips, nodded slightly, looked at Xi Honglei with flickering eyes, and whispered: "I obey my orders."
"Mom, let's go." Xi Zichen looked up at the two of them, blinked his eyes, tugged at his sleeves that were crying red, and said, "I'm hungry."
Xi Honglei looked down at Chen'er, said nothing, and took him away. After walking far away, Xi Honglei leaned over and picked up Chen'er, looked at the little thing in her arms faintly, and asked
He said: "Boy, tell the truth to your mother. What are you hiding from your mother?"
"No." Xi Zichen answered quickly, shook his head firmly, then kissed Xi Honglei's face and said flatteringly: "Chen'er obeys mother's words the most, how could he hide it from mother?"
Xi Honglei automatically blocked Xi Zichen's words and walked slowly towards Ran Yunpo's bedroom. When she got there, several people were already standing in front of the door.
"They are faster than us." Xi Zichen looked over there in confusion, then he lay next to Xi Honglei's ear and whispered, "Mom, let me tell you, there are powerful people among them!"
"How do you know?" Xi Hong's tearful eyes flashed and he asked.
"you guess?"
"Ghost spirit." Xi Honglei was silent for a moment, then smiled sweetly. He glanced sideways at the few people Ran Yunhao had placed beside him, and Xi Honglei strode into Ran Yunpo's palace without even looking at them.
Because Ran Yunpo had made arrangements before, even if Ran Yunpo was not in the palace now, Xi Honglei could come and go freely here.
Xi Honglei took Chen'er to eat something, talked with him for a while, and then coaxed him to sleep. When Ran Yunpo came back, Chen'er had already fallen asleep in Xi Honglei's arms.
"How long have you been here?" Ran Yunpo walked straight to Xi Honglei and his eyes fell on the child in Xi Honglei's arms.
"It's been a while, Your Majesty, have you finished reading the memorial?"
Ran Yunpo listened to Xi Honglei's words and sighed softly. From the time he came to the throne, even though he has been reviewing the memorials every day, spending seven or eight hours every day, the memorials have never been short.
"Let him go to bed."
Ran Yunpo was stunned for a moment, and asked Xi Honglei to send the child over. But after hearing this, Xi Honglei raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then refused: "The emperor also needs to rest at night, Chen'er sleeps here.
That’s it.”
After saying that, Xi Honglei stood up, placed Xi Zichen on the soft couch with a light movement, casually pulled the blanket aside and covered him.
As soon as Xi Honglei settled Xi Zichen, she felt her body lean back and fall into someone's arms.
Xi Honglei turned around slightly and met Ran Yunpo's eyes. A smile quickly flashed across his eyes. Xi Honglei turned around with a smile and asked in a low voice: "What are you doing, Your Majesty?"
"What do you think?" Ran Yunpo said coldly and asked with a twisted expression: "Why are you willing to give birth to this child for him?"
"Your Majesty, do you hate me, or do you hate this child?" Xi Honglei leaned into Ran Yunpo's arms and said softly: "He is still young, and all of this has nothing to do with him. Regardless of whether his father is
No matter who you are, he is all flesh that fell from my body. No matter how much the emperor dislikes him, he is still my son. Couldn’t the emperor love Wujiwu and treat him better? "
"You want me to be nicer to Mu Yunmeng's child?" Ran Yunpo snorted and asked mockingly: "Do you think I am a fool?"
The more Ran Yunpo looked at the child, the more he disliked it. On impulse, he yanked Xi Honglei's wrist and pushed Xi Honglei down on the table beside him. "Why don't you let me treat our child better?"
Xi Honglei exclaimed, not daring to act rashly. His eyes glanced at the door that was not closed when Ran Yunpo came in. Xi Honglei smiled meaningfully, raised his hands, hooked Ran Yunpo's neck, and lay next to Ran Yunpo.
In his ear, the voice said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, this matter must not be urgent. What if... we really have a child, and the Queen Mother or the Empress does not like me, what do you want me to do? I can't
I don’t want to worry about the emperor every day and have to worry about the child in my belly.”
After Xi Honglei finished speaking, the corner of her lips brushed against Ran Yunpo's cheek, and she met Ran Yunpo's eyes very close. When Ran Yunpo wanted to press over and cover her lips, Xi Honglei quickly turned his head to the side,
Said: "Your Majesty, there are still people watching."
Ran Yunpo looked at the people in the room coldly and shouted for them to leave. Xi Honglei half-pushed and half-shoved Ran Yunpo, and finally stood up with great difficulty.
"Your Majesty, I will bring you some water and let you take a bath." Xi Honglei glanced at the small pile of memorials brought back by Ran Yunpo on a chair not far away and said, "After reading those memorials
, can you rest today?"
"Go." Ran Yunpo thought for a while, let go of Xi Honglei, turned around and walked to the bed, lay down tiredly and closed his eyes.
Xi Honglei walked out of the room slowly to prepare the things Ran Yunpo needed for a bath. But before she could go too far, she was intercepted by someone.
"What are you doing?" Xi Honglei leaned against the wall and looked at the person in front of him with a smile. "If you don't guard the emperor's door properly, you are really an incompetent slave."
As soon as Xi Honglei's words fell, he quickly left the place, away from the man in black guard uniform. When he rushed towards him again, Xi Honglei smiled softly and warned: "If you do anything again, be careful I'll shout
Already."
"What do you want to shout?"
"Shout... I found out about the assassin who attacked the emperor last time." Xi Honglei stopped dodging and stood there honestly, looking into the man's eyes. Dropping the barrel in his hand, Xi Honglei flirted with him.
He raised his chin and asked in a low voice: "Didn't you say that it won't appear during this period?"
"I'm afraid if I don't show up again, what will happen if you really give birth to a son for Ran Yunpo?" Mu Yunmeng said in a low voice, put one hand around Xi Honglei's waist, and blocked Xi Honglei in the corner.
Lowering his head and pecking the corner of his tearful lips, Mu Yunmeng said in a hoarse voice: "How many times have you tried this game of playing with fire?"
"The first time." Xi Hong burst into tears, her heart trembled, she lied and said perfunctorily.
"This mouth is really getting more and more disobedient." Mu Yunmeng's eyes trembled, obviously not believing Xin Honglei's words. "Let him take advantage of you again, believe it or not, I will do it in front of him.
your clothes?"
"Are you willing to give up?" Xi Honglei knew that he was in the wrong and did not dare to say anything. Feeling the anger on Mu Yunmeng's body, Xi Honglei knew that he was serious. "You and Chen'er colluded to lie to me.
I haven’t settled the score with you yet.”
"Don't talk about the two things together." Mu Yunmeng refused to accept Xi Honglei's trick of changing the subject, pinched her waist gently, and then suddenly took Xi Honglei into her arms.
, lowered his head and sealed the mouth that was still about to say something.
Biting her lips as if punishing her, Mu Yunmeng finally stopped holding her hand until her lips, which were red with tears, became a little red and swollen.
Xi Honglei panted slightly and leaned against the wall, looking at the man in front of her with twinkling eyes. The two looked at each other in silence for a while, and Xi Honglei couldn't help but chuckle.
If she hadn't deliberately made such a fuss in front of him today, I'm afraid that even if Mu Yunmeng knew that she had discovered his identity, he would still have to play the game of pretending to be a guard with her for a while.
But then again, if Mu Yunmeng hadn't deliberately revealed the truth and told Chen'er first, then she would never have discovered that he was already by her side so quickly.
