Come on, Your Highness

"Kneeling for too long, the knees are congested, and the meridians are blocked. The child is young and the muscles and bones are tender. If it takes longer, it will hurt the bones. Fortunately, seek medical treatment in time and rest in bed. Eat and it will get better slowly."

"Thank you doctor." Li Yuechan sent the old doctor out with red eyes.

He Xichao was lying on the bed, with a cool and blood-activating ointment on his knees, which relieved the tingling pain and numbness.

He closed his eyes and thought.

I don't understand, even if his father eloped with his mother and made the Duke's Mansion lose face, but after so many years, no matter how big the anger is, it should disappear, right?Moreover, the person has passed away, and the white hair and black hair, isn't it even more regrettable?

On the way He Xichao came to Beijing, he kept thinking about how his grandparents would scold He Yu for being unfilial, while being sad and nostalgic for the past.

Unexpectedly, it was so difficult for him to get through the door, and he finally entered the Duke's Mansion in this way.

He was really puzzled.

Li Yuechan came back soon, she sat on the bedside and gently stroked He Xichao's knee with her fingers, the ointment covered the bruise underneath, but it still broke her heart.

He Xichao was sensible and well-behaved since he was a child, and the two of them never said anything serious, let alone punish him.

But now he was lying unconscious on the bed, with such a miserable appearance... There was no one around, Li Yuechan finally couldn't help crying again.

The sound of sobbing reached He Xichao's ears, he quickly opened his eyes and called out, "Mother."

Li Yuechan raised her head in surprise, and gave He Xichao a pair of blistered eyes, which made He Xichao feel distressed, and secretly scolded herself as an asshole.

"Mother, I'm fine, have you let the doctor see it together?" He looked at Li Yuechan's knee, which was also kneeling, not much better than his.

"Mother is fine, as long as Xichao wakes up, mother will be fine." Li Yuechan wiped her face repeatedly, wiped away her tears, and faced He Xichao with a smile.

"By the way, since you're awake, drink your medicine quickly, Chunxiang." She got up and shouted outside the house.

Chunxiang immediately came in with a medicine bowl, "Master, hurry up and drink it, it won't be good if it gets cold."

The soup was bitter and astringent, but He Xichao didn't say anything, just drank it in one gulp, handed the bowl to Chunxiang, and told her to leave, he said to Li Yuechan, "Mother, I have something to ask you."

Although He Xichao is only six years old, he is just like a young adult, very steady and righteous.When He Yu was around, it wasn't obvious, but during the two months when he was gone, Li Yuechan missed her husband and ignored him, and He Xichao took care of the family.

At that time, He Xichao didn't hide his clumsiness anymore. For the three-month trip back to Beijing, it would be more appropriate for him to take his mother with him than Li Yuechan took him with him.

In short, the orphans and widows can have a safe journey, and his cleverness is indispensable.

So facing his son's question, Li Yuechan nodded, "You can ask."

He Xichao immediately asked his doubts.

Li Yuechan lowered her face and shifted her eyes. Seeing her like this, He Xi made a groan in her heart. It seemed that there were other things besides elopement.

"Mother, just tell me that we have already entered the Duke's Mansion, the child will know sooner or later, but if I hear it from other people's words in the future, I will feel even more uncomfortable."

To be fair, Li Yuechan would never be able to beat He Xichao, five months was enough for her, a delicate and ignorant young lady, to rely on his son from her heart.

She seemed to be embarrassed to speak, hesitated for a moment but said, "When your father and I met each other, he was already talking about kissing me. She was my sister-in-law. He wanted to stop him when he found out, but I was a concubine. , How can we be worthy of being the son of the Duke's mansion? Wei Guogong refuses to agree, so in desperation, we can only take the risk and elope and leave."

"that's it?"

"My sister-in-law is proud and arrogant. This incident made her lose face and became a laughing stock in the capital. In the end, she couldn't do it. She married into Duke Wei's mansion, but she changed from the third wife to the second wife. At that time, the second son of Duke Wei It's a concubine, but now..."

"And now, he is a descendant, and the Duke helped my mother-in-law upright." Just as he was speaking, a sharp sneer broke in.

Li Yuechan was startled, and immediately stood up in panic. She turned her head and saw a dignified lady with pearls and jade emeralds walking in surrounded by maidservants, while Chunxiang was pushed aside by a fat woman.

Li Yuechan murmured, "Sister."

This sound made the second lady's face darken immediately, and she scolded sharply: "Shut up, who is your sister? What right do you have to call me that! When you did that day, you can put me in your eyes Very proud, a concubine who robbed her first sister's fiancé is really capable! Did I treat you badly? Did my mother treat you badly?"

Li Yuechan was so scolded by the second lady that she could hardly lift her head, holding back tears and shaking her head.

"Then why did you do that! It's because you're a born bitch, just like your mother, who specializes in robbing other people's men!"

"No... I... I'm sorry, sister, I'm sorry..." Li Yuechan fell to her knees, knelt down again, and cried bitterly on the ground, "It's all my fault, sister, it's all my fault, I'm sorry for you, You can scold me and hit me, as long as you can calm down, let me do anything."

"Calm down?" The second lady laughed back angrily, and looked up at He Xichao who was on the bed. She seemed frightened when she saw the child's staring eyes. That face was so beautiful, and it combined the advantages of He Yu and Li Yuechan. People are more disgusted.

"Beat you, I'm afraid my hands will be dirty." The second lady stared at her and said slowly.

He Xichao's heart skipped a beat, seeing that Li Yuechan was stunned, she suddenly slapped herself with a backhand, then left and right slapped one after another.

He Xichao couldn't care less about his knees, and wanted to jump off the bed, but was restrained by Li Yuechan, "Don't move, Xi Chao, don't move! This is what your mother deserves, so don't worry about it."

That was the only order Li Yuechan gave to her son. He Xichao turned her head and saw the second lady playing with her fingers and giving him a cold glance. The maids and servants around her also looked like they were watching the show.

Such a situation made He Xichao's mouth watery, but he also understood that the second wife would not let his mother go casually today after he had hidden his depression for so many years.

Finally he threw off the quilt abruptly, jumped out of bed, knelt down on the ground without hesitation and said: "The fault of the parents, the children will replace it."

After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and slapped himself like Li Yuechan.

The sound was loud and crisp, and it took a lot of strength. The child's body strength is small but his face is tender, and it swelled up in a short while.

Li Yuechan rushed forward distressedly to ask him to stop, He Xichao said to her: "Mother, you are wrong, father is wrong, the child should be punished on his behalf, don't worry about it."

As He Xichao said, he looked at the second lady with his clear eyes neither complaining nor angry, his hands were merciless, as if he would not stop until the second lady was satisfied.

Unable to persuade her son, Li Yuechan almost prostrated herself at the feet of the second lady, grabbed the corner of her clothes and begged for mercy: "Sister, I'm sorry, please, please forgive me, Xi Chao, all mistakes are my fault... Sister, Please, please...don't fight anymore..."

The corner of He Xichao's mouth was already dripping with blood, but he didn't even frown, and his hands didn't pause.

Being so cruel to himself, is this really only a six-year-old child?To be honest, it did scare the second lady a little.

The nanny next to the second lady couldn't stand it anymore, and leaned closer to the second lady and said in a low voice: "Ma'am, it's almost fine. Although I don't like to see you, but after all, I am a member of the He family. It’s not easy to explain.”

The second lady thought so too. She held back the disgust in her heart and waved her hand, "Forget it, you look like I'm punishing you. Who are you showing it to? Hmph, don't think that you just entered the gate of the palace. The He family recognized you. After He Yu eloped with you, the He family treated him as dead, with such a disgraceful status, you should take care of yourself."

After speaking, the second lady left quickly with her people.

Li Yuechan hugged her son with almost all her strength to prevent him from hitting her again, then carefully held his face, with tears in her eyes, shaking her head and sobbing: "Why are you so stupid, so heavy, doesn't it hurt, can't it be lighter?" ..."

How can there be such an immediate effect?

He Xichao had seen this kind of scene a lot in his previous life, and only when he was a little bit harsher to himself would others let him go.

But he didn't say anything, he just brushed Li Yuechan's eyes lightly with his hot little hand, and asked, "Mother, can you stop crying? My heart hurts."

Li Yuechan's heart was suddenly pinched, as if she had been stabbed hard with a sharp knife, and it hurt so badly that she seemed to be out of breath.

After that, Li Yuechan hugged him and burst into wailing, and even Chunxiang, who was silently beside him, fell to the ground and cried bitterly. He Xichao was not frightened by the second lady's battle, but was stunned by his mother's hysterical crying.

He doesn't understand, is it wrong for him to comfort him?Why did it have the opposite effect, crying louder?

The author has something to say: Yao: Even hitting himself, he is a ruthless person.

He Xichao: Is there any way, the sins committed by the parents, the son has suffered.

Yao: Your mother is a little hard to explain...

He Xichao (slanting eyes): Who is to blame?

Haruka: Hehe...
