The baby-making system is unreliable

Yun Xirou thought about the mountain of black stuff in front of her in the morning, which looked like a pile of ink blocks.

Unconsciously, she frowned and thought to herself that she found it hard to believe and was even a little embarrassed to admit that this was done by her own child.

Yun Xirou couldn't help but shook her head, and revealed her daughter's shortcomings without hesitation: "Well, you did write, but it looks like a ghost painting! It doesn't feel like practicing calligraphy at all."

What do you expect a three-year-old to write? Yun Xirou didn’t expect that anyway.

"No! I just... practiced hard, that's all." Xiaole lowered her head shyly and slightly put her hands behind her back.

Yun Xirou carried the two children to the table. The two children had spoons in their hands and had no problem eating by themselves.

Thinking of Xiaoyou's serious look in the morning, she smiled and said, "Xiaoyou's handwriting is quite good. At the age of three, at least he has a good pen-holding posture."

Xiaoyou wasn't very excited about getting Chen Zan, as if it was just a very ordinary thing.

"Mother, mother, Xiaole is also great."

Xiaole pretended to act like a spoiled brat, which was exactly like her.

"We can't keep going like this, we need to practice more!"

Yun Xirou didn't buy it. After saying that, she sighed softly, seeming helpless about her daughter's handwriting.

"There's no rush. The children are still young. Zi Xin's handwriting wasn't good before. There's no rush."

Xiao Zixu thought of the way they used to write as brothers and sisters, and couldn't help but smile.

"I heard that there was good news recently. The war is finally over."

Yun Xirou was filled with emotion, her thoughts surging, and she heard him say, "The revenge that should be taken has finally been taken, and it's time for Lu Qingyan to return to the capital."

It’s impossible to tell the emotions on Xiao Zixu’s face, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to tell whether he’s happy or sad.

Yun Xirou was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and nodded, feeling in her heart: She must miss that person very much.

The little ones' third birthday had passed, and she had been gone for three years.

"..."

"Mother, mother, what are you thinking about? Xiaole, I don't want to eat anymore. Xiaole wants... candied haws."

Xiaole sneaked down from the table at some point and even dragged her brother along.

Although Xiaoyou looked reluctant, his actions were very genuine and he did not show any disgust at all.

With the two little ones around them, the pain in their hearts, although heavy, has been slightly reduced. They have to look forward anyway.

"No...it will damage your teeth!" Yun Xirou refused seriously.

She didn't want the little guy's snow-white teeth to become unsightly because of his greed.

However, the little guy refused to give in and immediately looked to his father for help, with tears sparkling in his eyes and he pouted his little mouth and began to sob.

"Wuwu... Mother, you are not being obedient. Father Xiaole wants to eat! Um... It's my brother who wants to eat, not Xiaole..."

Xiaole, who was standing by, felt speechless when he saw his brother like this.

I thought to myself: It’s obviously you who wanted to eat it, why are you using me as a shield?

Seeing this, Xiao Zixu couldn't help but laugh.

He gently touched the little guy's head and said softly, "No... Xiaole... you all have to be obedient, otherwise your teeth will be damaged and it will not look good. It won't be too late to eat them when you grow up."

After saying this, he held his daughter in his arms, his eyes revealing endless joy.

Yun Yurou watched these scenes with a smile in her eyes. Sometimes she wondered if Xiao Zixu was also looking for his sister through Xiaole? !

I think so. Watching the two siblings grow up, I probably would recall some of the scenes when they were growing up.

……

The next time he saw Lu Qingyan, it was a family dinner. Perhaps because there were no other brothers and sisters around, Xiao Zixu did not seem to be shy when he saw him.

The Queen Mother, her and their two children were all there, and there were just some simple dishes and our hero, General Changli.

Snowflakes were floating in the sky, and the entire capital city was covered with white snow.

Looking back, it was also such a bitterly cold winter when he left here three years ago.

Now, he returned again, but found that nothing seemed to have changed. It was still the familiar yet strange streets, buildings and people.

But he was no longer the same, he had been different since he left three years ago.

As for his appearance, she was even more stunned. Is this still the gentle and elegant young man who appeared at the Flower Festival that year?

When my eyes meet the person in front of me, all the memories and emotions come flooding back to my heart...

"..."

It gives people a dreamlike feeling, as if important people are missing, and even the people who liven up the atmosphere are gone.

It was just Changli reporting the situation of the battle, with Lu Qingyan commenting from time to time, and it was a cold yet normal conversation between the king and his subjects.

Lu Qingyan spoke less and less, and it was hard to tell what she was like in the past. Those who are still alive must be feeling even worse.

"Father, Mother, I'm hungry..."

Well, the person who livened up the atmosphere became this cute little guy. Xiao Le interrupted the conversation among several people with just one sentence.

Xiao Zixu waved his hand and said, "Okay, everyone can finally start eating."

There were only two children at the banquet, talking without restraint.

Xiao Zixu dotes on his children, especially Xiaole, who talks a lot and misses her.

Xiaole burped contentedly, her round belly bulging slightly. She blinked her big, bright eyes and said to her grandmother in a baby voice, "Xiaole is full, give me a hug..."

However, the Queen Mother did not respond to her, because Xiao Le at this moment... really looked like... a lot like someone.

Her eyes became red for a moment. As she got older, she liked to reminisce about the past, and she couldn't stand seeing such scenes.

Seeing the indifferent look of the Royal Grandmother, Xiao Le became a little anxious. She twisted her chubby body, trying to attract the Royal Grandmother's attention.

At this time, Xiaoyou, who was standing by, suddenly spoke up, grabbed her sister who was about to run over and said, "You are too heavy, you will crush the Imperial Grandmother."

Xiaoyou teased his sister without hesitation, with a playful smile on his face.

Xiaole was immediately unhappy when she heard her brother's words. She pouted and retorted, "How could that be... I'm obviously just a child."

She looked extremely aggrieved, as if she was about to cry any second.

Yun Xirou usually doesn't care at this time and lets the brother and sister solve it themselves. It would be even better if they could have a plate of melon seeds.

Cough cough cough...Okay, actually Xiao Zixu won't interfere with such petty quarrels, and will only speak up when he really can't control it anymore.

Neither of them wanted to intervene, and Xiaole immediately calmed down. Acting requires an audience, and without an audience, who would you be performing for?

"..."

This little guy changes his face so quickly. I wonder who he learned it from.

Lu Qingyan was not interested in the things around him, but this little guy did attract his attention.

"..."

She really looks like her niece, she looks 70% like her. How could he not take a second look at her?

I’ve grown so big... Oh, yes, it’s been three years.

The first thing he did after returning to Beijing was to visit her at the imperial mausoleum and talk to her for a long time.

Nothing in the princess's mansion has changed. It is the same as when he left, and the same as when she left.

"Do you want to change?" Xiao Zixu asked him three years ago. If he didn't change, he would inevitably be sad.

Lu Qingyan shook her head, looking listless, and only said, "I would rather struggle forever in my memories."

It’s nice to remain unchanged, as if my wife has always been there.

This is what he thought when he returned to Beijing and saw the princess's mansion three years later.

"..."

"Hey, hey, hey... um... are you the uncle that mother mentioned?!"

Xiaole looked at the strange man in front of him with curiosity, a mischievous smile on his face.

As she muttered softly, she couldn't help but take a few steps forward, wanting to take a closer look at the person her mother had mentioned.

"Xiao Le...don't be so rude."

Xiaoyou is small but very calm and follows his sister closely.

The two children ran very fast and appeared in front of Lu Qingyan before they could be stopped.

At this moment, Xiaole's big watery eyes were staring at the other person, as if trying to see through the appearance to the depths of the heart.

Lu Qingyan was a little overwhelmed by Xiaole's sudden question. This child...all her teaching was in vain.

Xiaoyou, on the other hand, bowed in a very formal manner, looking like a little adult, with a calm expression on his cute round face: "Hello, uncle!"

Lu Qingyan was slightly stunned, then a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he replied softly: "Yes, little guy, I am your uncle."

After hearing the affirmative answer, Xiaole's eyes suddenly lit up.

She clapped her hands excitedly and shouted, "Wow! It's really my uncle! I've always wanted to meet you!"

Then, she ran over like a little bird and threw herself into her uncle's arms. This sudden enthusiasm frightened Lu Qingyan.

"My father and mother said that my uncle can predict the future by observing the stars in the sky! Xiaole is really envious, I also want to learn this magical skill."

Xiaole said expectantly, his eyes gleaming with curiosity and desire.

Children are always particularly interested in things that are full of mystery and fantasy, and for Xiaole, it is incredible that he can understand the starry sky!

Lu Qingyan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing. She gently stroked Xiaole's head, her eyes full of loving affection.

"Xiao Le wants to learn divination? Of course, Xiao You, do you want to learn with us?"

It’s a good thing that the two children want to learn these things. If they really want to learn, they can learn them.

Before, the little guy didn’t sleep at night and insisted on looking at the stars, so Yun Xirou told them with a smile.

"Thank you, uncle." The two children looked at each other with smiles on their faces, and then nodded heavily at the same time, expressing their irrepressible excitement.

"Then from today on, when I have time, my uncle will teach you about the starry sky." Facing the two children, Lu Qingyan's expression softened, which was rare.

Her nephew is also his nephew.

"..."

Yunxi Palace was unusually quiet today. The two noisy little guys were gone. Yun Xirou was quite uncomfortable with it for a moment.

"I feel a little uncomfortable with the two children not being here?!"

Xiao He served Yun Xirou carefully and gently removed the delicate makeup on her face.

"Your Majesty is thinking about the two little princes! Prince Consort Lu said that he is taking care of the two children, so you can rest assured!"

Yun Xirou was naturally relieved about Lu Qingyan, but she was worried about the child leaving his parents.

"I'm just not used to the two kids leaving me. They've never slept without me!"

She didn't know when Xiao Zixu entered the house, but at this moment he was standing behind her with a resentful look on his face.

He crossed his arms and said angrily, "Rou'er, are you missing the children now?!"

There seemed to be a hint of anger in his words. He was worried after just being away for a short time.

Ever since she had the two little ones, she has devoted almost all her time and energy to them, leaving very little time for herself.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zixu couldn't help feeling a little lost. After dealing with a few miscellaneous people, this was the first sentence he heard when he arrived at Yunxi Palace.

"Husband...Pfft...Why are you becoming more and more childish? You're even jealous of children?!"

Yun Xirou said coquettishly, gently putting her hand on his and throwing herself into his warm embrace.

She leaned on his broad chest, but suddenly smelled a faint scent of blood.

Yun Yurou's heart tightened, and she couldn't help but frowned. She looked up at him worriedly and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, what did you do? Why do you smell like blood?"

Her eyes were full of concern and confusion, and her hands unconsciously grasped his collar tightly.

Xiao Zixu didn't expect that she could actually find out that he had clearly washed it, so he narrowed his eyes.

Under her concerned eyes, Xiao Zixu comforted her lovingly: "Don't worry, it's just dealing with a few traitors."

He said it lightly, as if it was just a trivial matter.

Xiao Zixu said it so easily, but in fact, there was a spy in the Heavenly Prison who tried to rescue the youngest child of the Beisheng royal family, but was "stopped" by him.

Just a move and they were all killed.

As for the Beisheng royal family, the unimportant ones were killed... and the important ones... were tortured to death.

From tonight on, the Beisheng royal family will be wiped out and the entire clan will be killed.

Yun Xirou's expression became more solemn, and she leaned against him tightly: "But you shouldn't be so careless about your body." There was a hint of blame in her voice, but more of heartache.

Xiao Zixu smiled and hugged her tightly, comforting her: "Rou'er, without you, what meaning does this country have to me? As long as I can protect you, I am willing to pay any price."

This country needs stability. The royal family of Beisheng was the first to cast the poison and stop the enemy, so they should pay the price for it.

Xiao Zixu thought that he was not a kind-hearted person. He might have killed or harmed those who should be killed and those who should not be killed.
