Dote on the harem

One month before the first day, Yuwen Junran returned to the palace with Mu Liunan.It was already January at this time, the weather was very cold, and there was also a little snow outside.The two brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time, so Yuwen Junjue hosted a banquet in the front hall of Huanglan Palace to welcome his royal brother and sister-in-law.

It is said to be a banquet, but in fact it is just four people sharing a dinner together at the same table.At this time, Mu Zishu was nine months pregnant and pregnant with twins, his body was very heavy, and sometimes he was tired from sitting.Yuwen Junjue specially ordered someone to bring a chair with armrests, and put soft cushions on it so that he could sit and eat comfortably.

Mu Liunan was not surprised when he saw the pregnant Mu Zishu, he had heard Junran say it before.But when I saw it, I was still a little shocked and a little envious, after all, he couldn't have children for Junran.

Yuwen Junran knew what Mu Liunan was thinking when he looked at Mu Liunan in a daze, so he served some of his favorite side dishes for him, and said dotingly: "They are all from my own family, don't be restrained."

Mu Liunan was not a restrained person, he nodded and began to eat without politeness.

Yuwen Junjue and Mu Zishu also smiled slightly when they saw Mu Liunan regaining his sanity, but they didn't expect that this person was actually a serious and cold person, it was completely different from when his sanity declined.

Yuwen Junjue took care of Mu Zishu for meals, and the family was extremely happy to eat together, and said to his younger brother: "I was injured very badly before, so I went to Miaojiang to find the Gu King?"

Yu Wenjun shook his head with a smile, and he didn't want his royal brother to worry about him anymore, and said with a smile: "I got a Gu, so I went to find the Gu King, and now it's all right, so don't worry about it."

Knowing that his younger brother was fine, Yuwen Junjue nodded reassuringly.

Yuwen Junran looked at Mu Zishu again and said with a smile: "It's thanks to Zishu this time. Gu Wang's little lover regards me as the emperor's brother, thinking that you are empathizing with others, and instigated Gu Wang not to treat me. After knowing the truth, I only rescued Zi Shu for the sake of his face, otherwise it would be difficult to get a cure based on the principle of the Gu King."

Thinking of Liu Nong, Mu Zishu also smiled slightly.Yuwen Junjue didn't dislike Liu Nong any more this time, after all, he helped pick up the lives of his younger brother and Zishu.

"By the way, Liu Nong also asked me to bring you some elixir, saying that it will help you recover after giving birth." After speaking, Yuwen Junran took three small bottles from his arms and handed them to Mu Zishu.

Although Mu Zishu did not communicate with Liu Nong often, there were a few times.The first time was to thank his purse for saving his life, and then the two of them became closer in letters and told him about being pregnant again, thanks to which he took it to heart.

After taking the medicine bottle, Mu Zishu smiled and said, "Although Liu Nong is making a fuss, he still has a lot of heart."

Seeing that Liu Nong gave Zishu another good thing, Yuwen Junjue stopped saying that he was noisy, and nodded in response, and then said to Yuwen Junran and Mu Liunan: "This time I will come back soon. Stay for a few days, and it won't be too late to leave the palace after the first day has passed."

"Chendi and Liu Nan have exactly this intention."

The four of them were eating and chatting, when Suoxi suddenly walked in again, with an unpleasant look on his face.

Yuwen Junjue glanced at him, guessing what happened, and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

Suo Xi looked at Muzi's book, and then said: "Go back to the emperor, Concubine Wen Gui brought the child back to the palace."

Yuwen Junjue frowned, and asked inexplicably, "What child?"

Suoxi glanced at Muzi's book again, and said awkwardly: "Concubine Wen Gui said that it is her and the emperor's child."

"Nonsense! Where did I get a child from her?"

After finishing speaking, Yuwen Junjue subconsciously turned his head to look at Zishu, and seeing that he was also sitting in a daze, he couldn't help but softly caressed his face and said, "Don't think about it."

Mu Zishu slightly bent his lips, took his hand and held it in his hand, shook his head and said, "I don't have one, let's go and have a look first."

Seeing that he also meant to follow, Yuwen Junjue looked at Yuwen Junran and Mu Liunan, and then at the sky outside.It's snowing and so cold, Zishu can't bear it.After thinking for a while, he said coldly, "Bring Concubine Wen Gui and that child here!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Socie led the way.

Fortunately, dinner is almost used up.Yuwen Junjue carefully guarded Zishu, and helped him to sit on the couch together.Yuwen Junran and Mu Liunan sat on the chairs on one side.

Concubine Wen Gui was quickly brought over, along with a three or four-year-old boy who looked a little like Yuwen Junjue in his eyebrows and eyes.

Looking at the child, Mu Zishu didn't know what it was like.Even though this child belonged to Yuwen Junjue, it must have happened before he entered the palace, besides, the child is so cute, there is nothing unlovable about it.It’s just that I don’t know why I still feel a little dull in my heart, I always feel that something has interfered with my life with him, and the child in my womb is no longer his only one.

Thinking of this, Mu Zishu involuntarily stroked his lower abdomen.

Yuwen Junjue took a look at him, hugged him into his arms, and held his hand with his big hand, stroking his lower abdomen together.

"The courtiers and concubines see the emperor, and the emperor is blessed and safe."

Concubine Wen Gui knelt down to salute. At this time, the little boy also knelt down very cleverly, and said in a crisp voice: "Chenchen sees the emperor, and the emperor is blessed and safe."

What a clever little doll, he is also pleasing in appearance and has a sweet mouth. He should be very lovable, but the people present have no intention of liking this child. What is the origin of this child?

Yuwen Junjue looked at the child and frowned, and said softly: "Get up, Concubine Wen Gui, tell me what is going on with this child?"

The emperor said to get up, but Concubine Wen Gui didn't get up, and the child followed Concubine Wen to kneel like this.

Concubine Wen Gui did not dare to look at Yuwen Junjue, she lowered her head and sobbed, "My concubine is guilty, please forgive me."

Yuwen Junjue frowned even tighter, and said in a deep voice, "What's the crime?"

Concubine Wen Gui looked up at Yuwen Junjue tremblingly, then turned to look at the child beside her, and said with tears in her eyes, "I wonder if the emperor still remembers the disappearance of his concubine four years ago?"

Yuwen Junjue recalled it, and there was indeed such a thing.

At the beginning, he was doting on Concubine Wen, but one day Concubine Wen suddenly disappeared, Yuwen Junjue sent someone to look for her, but there was no news.It was originally a whim, and Yuwen Junjue sent people to pay attention, but he didn't pay much attention to it.But a year later, the people under his command found the haggard Concubine Wen Gui in a wasteland.Presumably it was because the concubines in the harem couldn't bear her being favored, so they smuggled her out of the palace.

At that time, Yuwen Junjue also felt that he was ashamed of her, so he did not abandon her, but took her into the palace and let her continue to be a concubine.Concubine Wen Gui is gentle by nature, even if she is no longer favored after returning to the palace, even though she has suffered so many grievances, she still lives peacefully without making noise.Based on this point, Yuwen Junjue made her a noble concubine again until today.

"What about this child?"

Concubine Wen Gui wiped her tears with her cuff, nodded and said: "Actually, the concubine stole out of the palace on purpose. During that time, the concubine was favored by the emperor, and the concubine was lucky to be pregnant with the dragon seed. But the concubines in the harem kept a close eye on them. The concubine was also afraid that if she had a child, she would be killed and aborted. In order to save the child, the concubine stole out of the palace and gave birth to the child incognito. Your Majesty, please forgive me, but this child is innocent, so I ask the Emperor to forgive me and keep him."

Mu Zishu took a look at the child. He must have suffered a lot at such a young age. Although he felt sorry for him, he was still somewhat disappointed when he learned that he was really Yuwen Junjue's own flesh and blood.

Yuwen Junjue hugged Zishu tightly, looked at the child, narrowed his eyes dangerously, and said in a deep voice to Concubine Wen Gui: "In this case, why did you bring him back to the palace now?"

Concubine Wen Gui gently brushed the soft hair on the child's forehead, and said helplessly: "The two old people in that farm family were already old, but now they have passed away one after another, and the child has no one to take care of them. He is a kind person, and there is nothing wrong with letting the child grow up in the palace. Even if the emperor wants to give a concubine to sin, the child is innocent, and he is willing to let Mr. Mu raise his concubine."

As she spoke, Concubine Wen Gui couldn't help but shed tears again, she was so pitiful.

Mu Zishu heard her begging for perfection, although he still felt a little bit uncomfortable, he couldn't help but sympathize with them.He clenched his fists with both hands, looked up at Yuwen Jun Jue and said, "Jue, Concubine Wen Gui is right, the child is innocent, and she is also protecting the child, so let this matter be over, let the child follow Concubine Wen Gui .”

Yuwen Junjue stared at Mu Zishu's eyes, trying to see something, for fear that he might feel wronged.He knew that Zishu had a kind heart, but the matter must not be based on just one person's words, and he still had to investigate clearly.

At this moment, Yu Wenjun who was on the side said: "Brother Emperor, the royal blood must not be confused, it is better to test relatives with blood first."

This sentence obviously reached Yuwen Junjue's heart, so he immediately ordered Suoxi in a deep voice: "Prepare to test the blood!"

Concubine Wen Gui didn't panic when she heard what the emperor said, but just looked at the child distressedly, and embraced the child in her arms.

This calm expression also made Mu Zishu sigh secretly, Concubine Wen Gui didn't look like she was lying, this child must really be cheating.

Suoxi prepared a bowl of salt water, and Yuwen Junjue got up, picked up a dagger, and decisively cut an opening on the pulp of his index finger, dripping a drop of blood into it.When Mu Zishu saw that he was cutting, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurried over to bandage his fingers.

When it was the child's turn, Suoxi took the dagger and cut lightly on the child's finger, dripping a drop of blood into the bowl.The child's hand was scratched. Although his expression was a bit painful, he held back and didn't cry. Several people couldn't help but praise him a little.

Everyone present was staring at the bowl, as time passed, the two drops of blood that were originally separated gradually melted together!

All the tools were handled by Suoxi himself, and Yuwen Junjue had no doubt that someone had tampered with the salt water.So this child is really his?Thinking of this, Yuwen Junjue couldn't help frowning, feeling very unhappy that he had memorized his book.

Concubine Wen Gui smiled happily and looked at Yuwen Junjue expectantly.

Yuwen Junran naturally also saw the dissatisfaction of his royal brother. He would also be dissatisfied with a child who suddenly appeared for no reason and broke the peaceful life, so he made a sound and said: "Brother Huang, according to my brother, the first day is approaching, how about it?" Let this child follow Concubine Wen Gui first, and restore his status as a prince after Yuan Day."

Yuwen Junjue nodded with a sullen face, and glanced at Concubine Wen Gui and the child, "Concubine Wen Gui will take care of the child first, and the child's status as a prince will be restored in the future, so let him adapt to life in the palace first. The crime of deceiving the emperor, let’s not talk about it for the sake of the child, but don’t let me down.”

Concubine Wen Gui breathed a sigh of relief, smiled gently, and brought the child to kneel down to thank the emperor: "Thank you for your kindness, my concubine will definitely live up to your expectations."

"Go back first."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

As soon as Concubine Wen Gui and the child left, Yuwen Junjue rubbed his forehead with a headache, and seeing that it was getting late, he said to Yuwen Junran and Mu Liunan: "It's getting late, you should go back and rest first." , let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

Yuwen Junran also saw his royal brother's irritability, so he nodded and took Mu Liunan to the side hall of Huanglan Palace to rest.Susi also retreated in due course.

Yuwen Junjue was only able to take care of Zishu after everyone left, hugged him into his arms and said softly: "Sorry, I really don't know about this."

Mu Zishu shook his head considerately, although he didn't want others to interfere in their lives, but the matter was a foregone conclusion, and saying nothing would help.Besides, this child was born before he entered the palace, so how could he blame him.

"It's a good thing to have one more prince. That kid is quite clever, and he will surely achieve something in the future."

Yuwen Junjue helped him to sit on the soft couch, hugged him in his arms, put his hands on his lower abdomen and said, "No matter how clever you are, you can't compare with our emperor. Don't worry, these two little guys are Our babes, no one can compare to them."

Mu Zishu smiled slightly, looked at him helplessly and said, "All children need their parents' care, and you should also give that child some snacks."

Yuwen Junjue suddenly fell silent, and narrowed his eyes dangerously, "If it is really my child, I will take care of it, I am afraid it is not!"

Mu Zishu was taken aback for a moment, "Didn't you test your marriage with blood just now?"

Yuwen Junjue snorted softly, put his arms around him and said: "Although I doted on Concubine Wen Gui, I still remember that she was not pregnant at that time. The imperial doctor said that she was not in good health and could not bear children, but now a child suddenly came out. What happened?" It's strange. It's a pity that the old doctor has already returned to his hometown, and he can only make plans after sending the shadow guards to investigate."

Mu Zishu leaned into his arms and nodded slightly, but he was shocked in his heart. If the child was not born to Concubine Wen Gui, where did it come from?Why does Jue's blood flow?

The author has something to say: Thank you and Yaoruo for mine O(n_n)O ~ you can guess whether the child belongs to the emperor, if not, why did the blood test succeed (⊙o⊙)...

Here the default blood test is effective, don't tell me that there is no scientific basis (⊙o⊙)...

The first five people who correctly answer the first half of the question in the small red envelope will win O(n_n)O haha~
