Chapter 840: Reunion Chapter 840: Reunion Editor: Atlas Studios Seated on the horse, Little Treasure straightened his back.
When he saw the orderly carriage fleet coming from afar, he could not help but feel excited.
He mounted his horse and was about to go forward when the captain of the guards hurriedly stopped him.
âYour Highness, letâs wait until His Highness and the others are near before we go forward.â Little Treasure waved his hand away and said, âThereâs no need for such formality between uncle and nephew.â After saying that, he rode his horse over to welcome them.
As Little Treasureâs riding skills were not very good, the captain of the guards hurriedly brought the guards forward to protect him.
When Little Treasure saw his fourth uncle riding on a horse from afar, he waved happily and shouted, âFourth Uncle!â âBrother Little Treasure!â As soon as Little Treasure finished speaking, a loud roar came from the carriage.
Little Bear lifted the curtain of the carriage sleepily.
The minute Little Bear saw Little Treasure on the horse, he shrieked loudly, causing Qi Haoranâs ears to hurt.
He reached out and pulled him out of the carriage, placed him in front of him on the horse, and rode towards Little Treasure.
Qi Haoran looked around behind him and asked in surprise, âWhy are you the only one here?
Whereâs your Uncle Fan?â âI donât know.â Little Treasure shook his head honestly.
âIâm the only one who came here.
Royal Father asked me to bring you into the palace.â Little Treasure looked at Little Bear and couldnât suppress the smile on his face.
Then, he looked at the carriage behind him and asked Little Bear softly, âSecond Brother and Third Brother are in the carriage?
Do they really look identical?â Little Bear nodded repeatedly and leaned out, almost reaching Little Treasureâs horse.
He whispered, âTry and guess whoâs older and whoâs younger later.
You definitely wonât be able to guess.â Little Treasure was also excited.
Seeing that the two children were whispering to each other, Qi Haoran pursed his lips and said, âAlright, letâs enter the palace first.â After some thought, he placed the lively Little Bear behind Little Treasure and said, âYou two brothers can ride together.
Just be careful on the way.â Little Bear was a year younger than Little Treasure, but now that he was sitting behind Little Treasure, he was half a head taller than Little Treasure.
The corners of Qi Haoranâs mouth twitched.
He went forward and touched Little Treasureâs hand, then said with a sigh, âYou have to eat more.â Little Treasure looked at his fourth uncle in confusion.
Little Bear pulled him over and whispered into his ear, âDonât worry about my father.
We often donât understand what adults are saying.
My mother said that if weâre too serious about everything, we wonât grow up.â âWhy?â âBecause if we spend all our energy thinking about those questions that we canât figure out, how can we have the energy to grow up?â Little Treasure was silent.
So did he grow more slowly because he loved to think?
âMy mother said not to think about such unimportant questions.
Only get to the bottom of something if itâs important.
Brother Little Treasure, letâs hurry into the palace.
Iâll show you my younger brothers after we enter the palace.
They look so similar that some of our servants still canât differentiate between them.
Brother Little An is also very cute and smartĂąâŹÂŠâ The two children whispered to each other as they rode towards the palace.
As Qi Haoran rode to the side, his forehead twitched.
He really didnât understand why the two children had so much to say.
Despite sending messenger pigeons to each other every few days, they still had endless topics to chat about when they met up in person.
From the meat pancakes in Ju Prefecture to their teacher, the two of them spoke non-stop from the city gate to the entrance of the palace.
When they arrived at the entrance of the palace, Qi Haoran finally heaved a sigh of relief.
These two children were too talkative; his ears hadnât enjoyed a moment of silence since just now.
Only Mu Yangling and Little Madam Xiaâs carriage followed Qi Haoran into the palace.
The rest of the carriages and people returned to the Princeâs Residence first.
As it was still early in the morning, the three children were still sleeping.
Mu Yangling carried the twins in her arms and got out of the carriage.
Qi Haoran knew that Mu Yangling was strong enough to handle that on her own, so he walked to the back and carried Little An who was in the carriage.
Then, he took a step back slightly to show his respect for Little Madam Xia.
Now that most of the servants had left, it was impossible for Little Madam Xia to carry the three-year-old Little An all the way into the palace by herself.
However, the child was still sleeping, so she couldnât bear to wake him up.
By helping to carry the child, Qi Haoran helped to solve her predicament.
Little Treasure and Little Bear had already run up to Mu Yangling hand in hand and poked their heads out to see the snoring twins.
The two of them were wearing the same clothes and hats, and Little Treasure really couldnât tell who was who.
Qi Haoran carried Little An over.
Seeing that Little Bear was snickering at the side and Little Treasure was still sticking his head out to look at the children, he couldnât help but reach out and grab their ears.
He said in a low voice, âHurry up and lead the way.
If you keep messing with your baby brothers again, Iâll beat you up.â Little Bear hurriedly pulled Little Treasure and ran in front.
Soon, the two of them started laughing.
As Qi Haoran walked, he turned to Mu Yangling and said, âLittle Treasure is much more lively than before.â The corners of Mu Yanglingâs lips twitched.
âThatâs because your son is too active.
It makes Little Treasure look quiet in comparison.â Qi Haoran was unconvinced.
âWhat about now?â âLittle Treasure has been influenced by your son.â Just as Qi Haoran was about to retort, the eunuch in the palace hurriedly brought people over with a sedan chair.
He was sweating profusely as he apologized to them for their lateness.
Qi Haoran only raised his eyebrows and did not say anything.
He headed to the Palace of Earthly Tranquility in a sedan chair, with everyone else following behind.
At the moment, the Emperor and Fan Zijin were still in the morning court assembly.
After sending his group to the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, Qi Haoran hurriedly rushed to the front hall after greeting the Empress.
As he was an official who had returned to the capital to report his duties, the first thing he had to do upon arriving was naturally to see the Emperor.
The Empress didnât ask Mu Yangling and the rest to wake the children up and asked them to place them on the soft couch in the inner room.
Seeing that the three children were sleeping soundly and their faces were rosy, she said with a smile, âI was afraid that the children wouldnât be used to it on the way.
Now, it seems that I was overthinking.â âThese children take after their father.
Theyâre very tough and are more excited than anyone to be traveling.â Mu Yangling turned around and asked with a smile, âWhereâs the little princess?
I have yet to see her so far.â Li Jinghua pulled Mu Yangling out and said with a smile, âThat child likes to sleep and hasnât woken up yet.
She should be up by the time her royal father concludes the morning court assembly.â Little Madam Xia had just washed up and changed her clothes.
When she saw the Empress and Ah Ling walking out hand in hand, she hurriedly stood up and moved to the side.
Li Jinghua said with a smile, âSit down quickly.
Donât be restrained.
Otherwise, Zijin will say that I bullied his wife later.â Little Madam Xia lowered her head with a red face.
Li Jinghua sighed.
âWhy are you still so shy?
Were you bullied by Ah Ling in Qiannan?â Little Madam Xia hurriedly glanced at Mu Yangling and hurriedly said, âAh Ling treats me very well.
She wonât bully me.â Seeing how flustered she was, Li Jinghua laughed out loud and said with a smile, âWhy did the smart Zijin marry such a pure-hearted wife like you?
Youâll be controlled by him in the future.â Mu Yangling pulled Little Madam Xia to sit beside her and said to the Empress, âIn fact, thatâs already happening right now.
However, Your Majesty, thatâs so mischievous of you.
Why did you scare her for no reason?â The Empress hurriedly apologized to her and said, âIâm used to joking with Ah Ling, so I couldnât stop myself for a moment.
Donât mind me.â Little Madam Xia repeatedly said that she didnât dare to take offense.
When Mu Yangling and the Empress spoke, they tried to involve Little Madam Xia in the conversation from time to time.
The three of them just chatted about casual stuff, such as the local customs of Qiannan, and events that had taken place in the capital in recent years.
Little Madam Xia quickly relaxed, and started seriously listening to the Empress talk about the changes in the capital in the past few years, taking notes in her heart.
She knew that the Empress was telling them about these things to prevent them from making mistakes, so she listened very seriously.
The Empress nodded slightly when she saw this.
Although Little Madam Xia was a little timid, she could be a good wife and mother.
