Xiao Chengyi was sitting in front of the imperial examination case and was lost in thought. The ink pen in his hand had not yet fallen down. What was he thinking about?
At this time, a voice came over: "Father, from the incense you came in, you have frowned fifteen times, sighed twenty-one times, and looked out the window sixteen times.
But not even one memorial has been approved. You usually teach my son not to bring personal feelings into political affairs, but my son heard that you lost your temper this morning and scolded Mr. Yao. This is your fault.
Already."
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Yan who was sitting in front of the small table.
At only six years old, he has a higher intelligence than ordinary children.
At such a young age, he was so mature that he even taught his father a lesson.
Xiao Chengyi waved to him: "Come here."
Xiao Yan stood up and walked over, climbed onto Xiao Chengyi's knees familiarly and asked: "Father, are you thinking about your mother?"
Xiao Chengyi hugged him and said, "Your mother did something wrong and made me unhappy."
Xiao Yan asked: "What did the queen mother do?"
When Xiao Chengyi thought about what Yan Yan had done, he became angry and said, "Your mother doesn't know how to cherish herself, and she makes me worry again."
Xiao Yan blinked and said, "But I heard Uncle Feng say that my mother is pregnant with a baby and I will have younger brothers and sisters. Don't you like it, father?"
But my father obviously likes me very much, how could he not like his younger siblings?"
Xiao Chengyi explained: "It's not that my father doesn't like it, but it's going to be very hard for your mother to be pregnant and it will be very painful when giving birth.
Your mother is most afraid of pain. She suffered a lot when she gave birth to you. My father just doesn't want her to suffer."
Xiao Yan seemed to understand, he said: "But the queen likes her. The queen likes her sister. If she doesn't have her sister, the queen will be unhappy. Does the father want to make the queen unhappy?"
The corners of Xiao Chengyi's lips twitched, and he was speechless for a moment to refute. His Yan Yan had proposed more than once that he wanted to give Yuan Xiao a younger sister, but he didn't agree.
Maybe he really did something wrong and shouldn't have deprived her of her preferences in the name of doing her good.
He touched Xiao Yan's head and said, "Go and study."
Xiao Yan jumped down and heard a creak as the door was pushed open.
Mu Yun'an showed her little head and smiled like a child: "Husband, I'm here to bring you food."
"Mother."
Xiao Yan ran over, but he did not throw himself on Mu Yun'an. Instead, he remembered Feng Changling's instructions not to let the queen mother hold her again, nor to bump into her belly.
He stood next to Mu Yun'an and said with a smile: "Mother, if you don't come again, my father will be passive and slow down in work."
Mu Yun'an chuckled, stretched out her hand and tapped the tip of his nose and said, "Then tell your mother, what did your father do?"
Xiao Yan said: "Father is absent-minded and has been thinking about you, Queen Mother."
Mu Yun'an kissed her son's cheek, and then said: "The queen has brought you your favorite snack, go and eat it."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
Xiao Yan accepted the cakes from Mu Yun'an, then ran out, and thoughtfully closed the door for them.
Mu Yun'an coughed lightly, walked over with the food box in hand and said, "Brother Yi, let's eat something. I know you are angry with me, but you can't get too angry."
Xiao Chengyi originally wanted to ignore her so that she could know the consequences of doing so.
But he felt that it was himself who was being tortured by this, and he could not calm down and deal with state affairs at all.
What's more, his Yan Yan came to him on his own initiative.
